Thank you, Karen. You always make me feel better. We are supposed to get snow tomorrow. Are you getting any up your way?


#202

Run up 100 flights of stairs for warm up before todays little 12 min Amrap CrossFit home wod. Our CF coaches are keeping us motivated with the short and sharp workouts to keep us moving during lockdown.

Felt very ready for something to eat so brunch was a very tasty ribeye steak coated in leftover lamb and beef dripping. It was so nice i may have to cook another one later. We’ll see, everything is subject to change :grin:

:joy: In the US it generally means “leftover meat fried with potatoes”. In South Carolina BBQ hash is a traditional comfort food. Imagine runny pulled pork stew with an acid (vinegar, tomato, mustard) based sauce.

Where I live near Portland there are no Kansas City or South Carolina style BBQ joints. Our definition of hash more closely aligns with the Aussie version.

Is it notmal for my wee to have an odour to it? I notice it as i iam weeing and especially when i get up in the night for a wee.
I think i had a bit of an odour when i first started keto but notice it almost all thie time since doing carnivore the past 9 eeeks or so.
Is it the food or is it that i maybe should be drinking even more water that i already drink… generally 2.5ltrs plus some?
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

:rofl::rofl::rofl: love it!

In the Army we often got corned beef hash. Fried corned beef, onions and chopped boiled potatoes.

Hash browns - potato and onion wrapped in batter and fried… never really liked them

No advice here but me as well.

Oh I learned a new word and condition…
But I think the mentioned thing is very irritating to every normal person. I know it is to me and according to what I have quickly read, I am not misphonic. I have certain sounds I find irritating (whispers, for example) but only a few and it’s not extremely irritating, just a bit. I am not good to accept a wide range of things, I can’t stand hot temperature either and that is pretty normal in summer (or in rooms in winter. not in mine, of course).

How much is little or too much?
I didn’t eat much liver yesterday but it was already ~300g (it lost a lot of water when I fried it, it was 150g homemade pâté). I usually eat it in small amounts but I could eat much more, it’s very very tasty and it’s simple store-bought chicken liver… But 100g is nothing, I mean business when I eat meat, even organs… Except dry sausage where I am able to eat 5-10g per day… And no way I could eat more than a tiny amount of bacon…But those are smoked, salted, overly fatty, at least one of those. Liver isn’t. I still can’t eat it like a normal meat but almost. I often eat liver but not on the majority of my days.

Oh. I didn’t know or read that.
Hungary is quite Christian but there are (partially) horse sausages in the supermarkets, it’s not an extreme thing. And in the ancient times eating horse surely was normal as horses were always present, they were very much needed to travel in masses. And I don’t know any more about this topic.

BEAUTIFUL pic! :smiley:

I start to get hungry… It’s almost 3pm, after all, we walked 12km in snowfall! The temperature is a tad too high but the fields start to get white a bit. Just very wet. We will see if it gets colder and prettier…

We really need the lessons about how to take apart fowls but well, I did it. I can’t help one duck thigh is way heavier than the other (that one is mine :))… Fatty duck, I will render fat. Not like I don’t have duck fat and goose fat (store-bought, that one) already… And bacon grease (yuck, a bit), piglet fat… I used up the little hen fat: I marinaded the duck limbs, we will roast them soon.
And we have lots of soup! (With veggies as it’s not for me only and Alvaro can’t imagine a meat soup without veggies. Including onions. I love onions but they are needed in stews, not meat soups. And potatoes… He puts them into everything… Oh well, I can handle such a soup if I avoid the pieces.)

Reading this thread, I am very lost about hash and stew now… I only knew hashbrowns this far, it seems it’s meat mixed with vegetables (and we consider potatoes vegetables here), somehow…
But stew…

What. Stew has his own sauce. Why to add extra? Overcomplicators!
I add sour cream if anything :slight_smile:

wee…took me a sec to get it cause I type pee HAHA

what we talking here?
sweety type smell, not that bad would be ketones exiting thru the urine because we are ketone burning peeps. with time this leaves or if we change up how we eat and we zc people can go in and out of ‘real ketosis’. We are ketone burners and thru time they will burn at different levels and adapt and adjust and be used in the body so we are not always in a ‘nutritional ketosis’ state on zc, unless one wants it like that and fits their eating profile to do that. (which is mostly for those with med issues and they require it)

next is ammonia smell and cloudy…that is dehydration. water up more if you are at this level.

plus newer zc people have adaption time and toxins will leach out of your system and end up in urine for a smell change and that could take 6 mos for some, faster or others or longer.

plus what we drink can come thru…teas, coffee or anything other than water but not usually a ‘thing’ unless one goes heavy on that drink.

Anything can come thru your pee at all times LOL Yea that is a definite exit level for alot of crap in us :wink:

you are fine tho, normal as in ‘normal’ but of course if bloody or anything else weirdo goes down then Dr advice of course.

and no I am not a Dr. even tho I never play one on tv :wink: :smiling_imp: HAHA

---------good carnivore morning

steak
chicken
cheeseburger patty

not writing amts, just know I eat very well and a heck of alot of it :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

rare, very rare I can remember a dream…but my Bro Rich called and said my neice is getting married. So that night I dreamed we went to the reception and they had a ‘carving roast beef’ that was tough as nails and no other ‘zc food’ acceptable to me. But I was smart…I was zc perfection cause I packed my cooler with 6 chicken legs, 3 chicken breasts, 4 cheeseburger patties and made a tub of tuna/mayo and brought 2 tins of sardines…and plate, bowl, knife, fork and napkins. All iced down and ready for me.

I tell ya guys, I AM SO ZC! :partying_face:
and ya know what I am heeding that, I don’t care what he says will be food offering when they know, I am packing a friggin’ cooler to bring LOL

doing fab
just lowering salt intake and doing some exercise tapes to move the body thru cold winter times.

luckily a dusting of snow, not bad, now icy tonight and more but beats alot of real snow to deal with I guess. ugh either way on winter crap.

oh and if I missed some posts wtihout a ‘love icon’ clicked it is cause ya’ll chat so much and so fast that I am missing some lately, but if I miss a click on that like button, know I like your zc posts anyway!!

hash, think crispy type, fried before or baked and then combined or mixed with maybe other things to make a ‘mess on the plate’, a hash-- and not in liquid like a stew is in a soupy type broth.
a ‘hash mix’ is a dry mix mostly…stew is gonna be a floater type
:woozy_face:


(Karen) #214

Hahaha a ‘floater’ in UK is a poo left floating in a loo !
Just sayin’ :laughing::laughing::poop::toilet:


#215

omg K…don’t make me go there in a visual!!!

:nauseated_face:


(Kellyn ) #216

We just got rain, LOL. The weather man was wrong. Oh well, at least we don’t have to wait on the snow to melt and can still get out and about.


(Karen) #217

Thanks for the info. My wee pee doesn’t smell of ammonia more musty i guess. However, i am experimenting today by filling up my pint glass with water every tine i finish it to encourage me to drink even more than i do already. I will see if that makes any difference. I thought perhaps it was a protein whiff?

Loved your dream … better than mine … my daughter had the architect round to talk exrensions NYE and we were chatting about the outcome, that night i dreamt about her extension that isn’t built yet!!!

I dream a lot. When i was pre-menstrual i used to dream wierd deams and even now that im nearly through to the other side of menopause i still have a period through the month that i dream crazy dreams. I can usually remember 99% of them! :roll_eyes:


(Kellyn ) #218

I love this insight, FB! I never though of it like that. Thank you for this.

I guess I should have just called it pulled pork, LOL. It’s just smoked pork that is shredded. They had this amazing vinegar based hot BBQ sauce.

Wow, dreaming of ZC, you are so hard core. I love it! If I dream about it food it is usually me taking a bite of some sugary, carby substance and then feeling really guilty about it and wondering why I did that, LOL. I always dream. Since my sleep has been disturbed a lot from adding the carbs and sugar back I dream several dreams a night. Some I don’t remember. When I was ZC before I slept most the night, better than I had in years. I am looking forward to that again, too.

yes! exactly.

I’m thinking of going back to the BBQ place tonight as they have a special on brisket today. I’ve never had brisket before but always wanted to.


#219

K, I don’t know if I wanna remember any…I have to say I like not remembering cause those scary type dreams of falling or being chased, damn ya know…nah my not remembering is better for me LOL
What type of extension is your daughter building. I put a monster play room to the back of our home and boy that space is the bomb, so glad I did that extension to the back, plus I made a ‘hunting room’ for hubby for ALL his hunt crap and put in a big azz mud sink etc…and built me a big azz pantry along one wall. I got me great space from that build.

yup so agree. Cool on just rain, we had a baby flurry a bit ago but this is gonna acct to nothing thank goodness. snow kinda stops things but when we miss it we can function and enjoy our day so much more.

get the brisket. GET THE brisket. GET THE BRISKET! and you can kinda ask for some ‘good fatty pieces’ from the cut on your order…omg that brisket fat is to die for! Many might say, hey not TOO fatty pieces in my order but we zc people say, throw me the delish fatty slices! :slight_smile: Melts in your mouth good!


(Kellyn ) #220

:drooling_face: just thinking about it makes my mouth water. I will definitely ask for the fatty pieces.
