Well I am Very Weird and a WLS patient, so I shoot for 80-90g of protein daily, and the rest is typically fat whatever I eat. I’m not hungry much on ZC. I notice that plant introduction immediately triggers hunger again, which isn’t necessarily bad, I suppose. I eat to satiety long before I limit my consumption, if that makes sense?
Meaning, I weigh everything, and measure, but I am typically full before that.
A typical ZC meal for me might be 4oz of beef heart, or liver, or a combination. I wind up eating 12-16 oz of meat a day, and sometimes random full-fat dairy as whims suit me. Usually I skip dairy when I can, but I do like cream and ghee and full-fat yogurt (plain).
I do try to eat a wider variety of types of meat, though I take vitamins so I typically am unconcerned about micronutrients. I had a few vitamin deficiencies about six months ago, and have been struggling with a very slight potassium deficiency. I did have a vitamin D one for a while, but @erdoke helped me with supplements for it and I’m currently good. The vitamin D and potassium were unrelated to diet. Vitamin D I’ve had issues with for 20 years, long before low carb, and potassium took a hit after WLS, weirdly. It, too, is “normal” at the moment.
