I get what you are saying definitely.
but zero carb has concepts we follow in this plan.
the focus is on food. We eat food. We do not rely on plant based drinks, hot or cold If you want something in the morning, then try eating food first is what zero carb is all about. Chatting other situations/plans people are on they have different use for liquids, like bulletproof coffee to keep them satisfied and off food…but zero carb is 100% about FOOD HEALS our body, coffee will not ever be a benefit to heal your body if you are a zero carb based value person on this plan. Coffee carries alot of troubles for many and even if they can drink some, alot of people when theyb drop it realize just how crappy it is for them individually.
See on carnivore unless one stops the coffee as a morning crutch one will never know if they are truly hungry or not. Key is to learn this from our body. Simple as that on zero carb. A newbie especially! Their eating patterns and hunger signals and more are not more pronounced and healing is just starting while going thru adaption times so…I say hard on that coffee as a focus in the morning is not a good zc concept at all. Ask all those zc people who dumped relying on coffee and never thought they would want to eat real food in the morning, found they really enjoyed eating real food and it helped alot and it made them feel better and more alert and this is what zc is all about. Truth thru eating meat/seafood/fish and not relying on any other plant based crap.
So that is the ZC angle that coffee is all about and thing is being a zc challenge thread, hey this info is needed for a newbie carnivore.
And coffee is that monster gray area on how it should be enjoyed in your eating life and not a crutch to skip meat meals. Thing is the more healing meat and real foods we eat the better we are and heal more and adapt easier and all that good stuff.
So that again was my angle and I do get yours about some never wanting breakfast cause I was one of those too til I started zc I found I wanted to eat in the morning cause I followed the plan as I learned from veterans, but after my healing and adapting, I naturally went right back to not being hungry at all in the morning…so I changed my eating pattern as zc needed to heal me and then in the end, longer and longer on plan most zc people fall into 2 meals per day or maybe 1 but that seems to be the normal for us. But when we start, more people don’t eat breakfast time find they WANT food in the morning if they are not drinking their breakfast…so again, zc info that comes into play for some.
Also that ‘clinging to coffee’ as a crutch is so sad cause food is what the body wants, not this junk truly. And I am like you, when hungry I eat real food LOL
