Some Days, I don't want no veggies page

[bokbadok]

Today was one of those days. Anybody else ever have this happen? I don't sweat it, since it's unusual. Just kind of interesting.

we all have them. i eat ruminants, they eat the grass for me, i figure it all works out. "you are what you eat and what you eat eats too" paraphrasing michael pollan.

I don't really buy or cook my own food, and a lot of days vegetables just don't happen, except in the form of potatoes or green beans. I know I need more vegetables, but I've never been a huge veggie lover. I don't dislike vegetables, but wouldn't say I'm at all enthusiastic about them. I'm worried though because it seems like I should be eating a mountain of them every day for a few reasons. I'd be interested in learning about acidity/alkalinity in the body from Mark.

When I first started, ALL I wanted to eat was meat. I had to choke down the veggies. Now I go through phases - lots of veggies for a while, then lots of meat for a while. I figure it all averages out in the end

Now that I am not addicted to carbs, i trust what my body wants. Yes, some days that's lots of veggies, some days not. Same for meat, dairy, fruit, everything.

I generally only experience this lack of desire for carbs like maybe Monday - Sunday on a given week. The rest of the time, though, hey - pile me up a big old salad!

I can't think of a time where I didn't want to eat vegetables. However, there are occasionally days where I don't want to eat meat (well, the meat we buy. I just get tired of beef/pork/chicken. I'd love some fish, or shrimp, or something).

i ALWAYS want to eat avocado, and i do green monster (spinach!) for breakfast, so even if i dont get in my lunchtime salad, i rely on those 2.

Avocado is a fruit.


I'm not big on salads, but I love a big pile of roasted veggies! But taking the time to make them is another story, so it's not so much whether I crave them, but whether I feel like making them.

Usually adding bacon fat fixes that issue for me.
