Weighed myself this morning, and the scale says I haven’t gained back 2 pounds. Oh well, I’m going to trust the process, and just stay on Carnivore.

(Later today) Strategy change: I ate the garbage I was craving. This was risky for a couple reasons.

  1. Eating the carbs, gluten or sugar may cause me to lose all desire to get back on Carnivore.
  2. Unexpected effects to my physical or mental state.

Why did I attempt to eat the junk, processed food that I had started to crave? Because Carnivore meals still sound appetizing to me. I think about all the Carnivore meals I’ve cooked, and I want to eat them still. I’ve been able to go to restaurants, look at the other items, and resist them in favor of my Carnivore foods. I wasn’t too worried about my desire to go back on Carnivore. Also, I didn’t want to “store up” thoughts of all the foods I was craving to the point where I’d just eat all junk food in 1 day or on a road trip.

Snack – Korean jerky

Meal 1 – Empanadas 4 beef/cheese (made with corn dough) + Coke Zero

Snack – unsweet tea + pretzel

Meal 2 – Brunch Burger Extreme (1/2 lb burger, 8oz bacon, 1 slice cheese, 3 eggs)

Cravings: My mental state let the junk-food desires run, so I just decided to eat the junk.

Energy: Woke up the same way I felt last night, which was feeling a bit blah and defeated. The sleep itself was great, and I got puppy kisses this morning. The sun is shining, so I am glad for it.

The fact that God gave us free will is a great gift. But also a great responsibility. Onward towards tomorrow!
