Another day passed. I definitely didn’t wanted more beef so I focused on my eggs but basically had no desire towards anything. I still ate as much as I comfortably could. And that wasn’t much but not horribly little either.
No coffee today, yay! I never drink it without a good reason since I started.
I cooked some beef soup with the leftover beef neck and ate it. It was very nice. I still have most of the cooked meat, not flavorful but it will be good for meaty pancakes I think. I surely will try but what could possibly go wrong?
I will figure out my salt intake at some point, it was surely kind of low today. I measured out 30g Himalayan salt in the beginning but it will took several more days to use it up (of course, my ingredients contain salt as well but it’s only significant in the case of the smoked pork chuck and I barely touch that).
I feel okay. Borderline nausea, I went for boiled and deviled eggs today, fried stuff all the time, I had enough. I ate some leftover scrambled eggs, it turned out it’s nice and the fat feels better that way, in solid form. But I want to feel just right again…
I definitely thought of other foods today. Especially dairy. And what I will make on New Year’s Eve (my SO makes lentils, it’s traditional and tasty and even satiating even for me despite it’s carby. But so plain and common that I surely won’t feel the slightest temptation, it freezes well anyway). I think it’s a good idea to relax a little but not going too crazy. I have plans but I can do without, I am quite patient. I just want to take a very tiny break to feel better. But no idea what would be good for my very slightly queesy insides. I don’t desire my old plant food and my eating is controlled by appetite, usually. I don’t eat things I don’t want and I eat things I do.
I probably have my last no dairy day tomorrow, 5 days are more than enough, it’s so restricted without my cheese (despite I tend to eat tiny amounts of it) and I have a slightly aged Gouda and it’s so wonderful.
I planned a carnivore week or whatever I can do (I didn’t think I would be still this strict at this point) but it probably will be longer, I barely started and it’s not hard at all. Lack of meat is a slight problem but I do what I can. I may buy some fish and I always will have smoked pork, it’s just not for eating in bigger amounts.
I keep an eye on the Facebook page of the beef farm, last time it was 4kg meat but even my freezer has more free space and we will cook a decent amount right away. So we buy much more next time especially that I will be super quick and get everything I want, hopefully.
I’ve read about the wildly different amount of PUFA in pork. So my Hungarian farm-raised pork isn’t anything like normal pork in the USA. That sounds good but I would eat it anyway, it’s super tasty and my body doesn’t complain.
I can’t imagine eating beef often but who knows? We have just started to make dishes with it and some of them turned out very well. Frying such a chewy meat is tricky and not even needed but we still made progress.
