Day 20:
Exercise: crossfit, intramural volleyball
Breakfast: 2 egg, 3 egg white spinach omelette
Snack: 2 hardboiled eggs
Lunch: 200 g turkey, 2 cup veg
Snack: 1 hardboiled egg, nutrivalley bar (I realized too late that I hadn't eaten enough today and was famished with about 2 more hours of work to go...)
Dinner: 10 oz steak (how do you like them apples?)
Snack: tuna and carrots, yam, honey
I don't know what was my problem. I got home from volleyball and just was HUNGRY. But not physically... just mentally. So I ate a can of tuna, an entire yam and loads of honey. I know that this could technically have been much worse but my caloric intake is about 3700 today. I think I might need a break from all the meat. Maybe eat some oatmeal? Maybe eat some gluten free pasta? Chilli with beans? I don't know. I am definitely having a meat overload... I know I could cook with the coconut flour and stuff like that but that has never really been my scene. Maybe I need to put back in some fruit... I don't know.

Looking back over your entries, I really don't see what I would consider a ton of meat. We are the same height, but I am a guy and weigh more if I remember correctly, so I probably have a larger appetite.
I would recommend maybe eating more vegetables, especially leafy greens. Salad, spinach, collard, turnip, and mustard greens, kale. Also, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, squash of all kinds, turnips, rutabagas, peppers. The Primal Blueprint as Mark lays it out has lots of servings of vegetables every day.

Day 22:
Exercise: crossfit (Grace), 7.5 km slow jog
Breakfast: 250 oz turkey, 2 eggs
Snack: 2 hardboiled eggs
Lunch: can salmon, 1.5 cup veggies
Snack: small slice cheese, 2 starburst, nature valley barx2
Dinner: chilli with a whole wheat bun (Tim Hortons), yogurt, half banana, apple, 2 carrots
*I am thinking that if I sometimes have a craving I might just nip it in the bud. I guess that is more 80/20 anyway. I have probably been about 95% most days. Today I was just insatiably hungry all day. I think it was largely due to the fact that I only slept 4 hours and was up from 445 am onward. Did get in a really good workout this morning though! I am loving crossfit :)

Exercise less. Eat more fat. It's easy really.
