Day 14 - Seafood
Continue to feel very good and energetic. Very even energy all day long.
Daily Stats:
- How does gut feel? Great! No discomfort.
- Hunger level? Still feeling like I’m in “food jail”. I’m a bit pissed off at myself for putting me through this. I opened the fridge and looked at my cheese in tears…sniff. But, I’m not hungry…just not liking the no freedom to choose.
- Mood? Awesome…except for being pissed off with the food testing situation
- Energy level? Pretty good!
- Sleep? Good deep sleep.
- Delta weight since start = +1.6 lbs
I came to the realization that maybe this is what our ancestors lived through. They didn’t have grocery stores lined with everything you could possibly want. Me going through the proteins, and sticking to the test rules, is like being stuck with what nature gives you. Following the seasons, or being content with whatever fish or animal you happen to trap that day. You need to be clever about food preparation, because with whatever little you happen to get your hands on, you need to make the most of it and make it taste good. If you can’t do that…tough! Eat it anyway! Stop complaining!..uhhggggg…it still doesn’t make me stop from dreaming of chocolate…damn I miss chocolate…sigh and cheese…I miss that, too.
Today, I tried to cheer myself up and blended some bacon with my seafood. I also noticed that I ate too little food last night, accidentally. I only had about 150 calories. Seafood is quite high in protein, low in calories/fat, and I find it quite filling. So, I can accidentally under eat. I don’t want to under eat and drive my metabolism crazy. So, I figured pairing shrimp with bacon would be a good idea, getting lots of fat to drive satiety.
For dinner I had shrimp and bacon medley
