I have a confession.

The Coke Zero was calling my name, so I went to the gas station, and got one for myself. I did make 2 slight alternations to the amount I used to drink. I filled the cup with a little more ice, and didn’t fill the cup to the very top. To get the absolute most drink I could, I used to the the exact opposite. I was thinking that perhaps a smaller amount would be just as satisfying as my normal Large cup. Yes, I have always gotten the 32 oz size.

If I decide to keep Coke Zero in my diet as a “treat”, the size will decrease. Let’s see if a 24 oz, then a 12 oz, will satisfy any craving I have in the future. Eventually I want to give up all the black tea and Coke Zero, unless perhaps I am going to a special occasion like vacation.

Meal 1 – Omelet with 5 eggs, 1/4 cup bacon bits, 1/4 cup cheddar cheese

In a hurry this morning, I wanted to whip up a meal that was fast. I don’t think this omelet even took 10 minutes from gathering the ingredients to being plated. While I don’t want to eat bacon bits every single day, they do help to satisfy my hunger while tasting delicious.

Snack – large Coke Zero, unsweet black tea and 1 Kirkland’s meat stick

Meal 2 – About 6 ounces of Pork Belly (weight after cooking) + 8 oz chicken breast (bit of Cajun seasoning)

Cravings: Today was a hot day, and I think the Coke Zero seems so appealing because I get this from the gas station with ice. Ice keeps the drink cool, and seems special. I decided to buy ice trays today to test if the unsweet tea or water could feel just as enticing because of the cold ice cubes.

Energy: Slept so well last night, I decided to sleep in another 2 hours! I didn’t make any of the changes from Kerry’s video, but my lack of sleep from the prior night really helped me fall asleep fast. No slump this afternoon as I went shopping, came home, and did some work.

This is the end of the 1st week on Carnivore! Was I perfect? No. But I want to refine and get better with time. Thankfully every day starts new, and Jesus loves us. Thank you for reading along this week!
