Wow, LostinthePines, you're doing great! I've just read through your journal and it's got such an inspiring onward momentum. None of the waffling and waivering that I seem to persistently go through.

Just a friendly hello from another one in the Pines. :-) Keep with it!

Seriously! Onward ...

Thanks, guys, for stopping by and for the encouragement! It helps, even when things are going well. I ran out of good GF beef and ate conventional last night and this morning and really don't feel great. Lesson learned. Maybe one meal once in a while in a pinch, not 2 meals in a row. And I fried them in GF tallow!

BF conventional rib eye fried in GF tallow, kraut, 1 Bubbies pickle, 2 brazil nuts
Lunch Quesedilla explosion salad minus the tortilla strips and quesedillas, chilis. Forgot there was corn and beans in it, tried to pick them out but every now and then I'd hit a disgustingly sweet spot and finally figured out it was the corn. ugh, lol.
Dinner salmon and scallops cooked in CO and ghee. box Cascadian org. green beans, minus the almond slivers, with ghee. finally made some primal bark, had a piece of that. 3 bars Green & Blacks 85% dark, several blobs of CO, maybe 1/2 c shredded coconut, some chopped mac nuts. pretty good!

Put some ice packs on my belly, butt and thighs for a while. No problem at all, think I might try a bath tomorrow. maybe.... we'll see......

Yikes, missed a few days, but keep on keeping on.

BF free range pork spare ribs, CO
Lunch mac nuts, bag of potato chips from vending maching. didn't have anything and couldn't leave to get something
Dinner more ribs, CO, primal bark.

Not a very nutritious day!

174.8 Very interesting. I've been hovering in the 175s for a while. Interesting because I went to an Itailian restaurant last night. I had lamb & okra stew. Not much lamb, of course, lots of okra and roasted tomatoes over rice. Left most of it behind but ate all the meat and picked at the rest. I woke up about 2-3 hours after going to bed STARVING. I tried to ignore it but after 2 hrs had a little bit of uncured pepperoni because that is all the meat I had available. That finally let me get back to sleep. I checked my blood sugar just before eating that and it was 81. My hip joints are achy, too.

Have to work out the starch/blood sugar thing. It doesn't make sense to me that our body produces amylase if we aren't supposed to eat it. Will try again today with sm amount of sweet potato at lunch and check my blood sugar.

FBS 94 hmmm must be a cortisol thing.
BF conv. rib eye cooked in gf tallow, 1 c broccoli w/ ghee, 2 brazil nuts
