    When you get mad at your spouse for buying the good lean pork roasts instead of the yummy well marbled cheaper better roasts. Much much better after a quick soak in a marinade.

    When the steaks you pick at the store are based on how much fat they have and not how little.

    Yasss! I'm a baby low-carber (former lowish fat IIFYM-er), and I still have a freezer full of blah extra lean steaks/roasts and 99% lean turkey, which honestly tastes like leather and cardboard, respectively.

    Drooled over some lovely untrimmed, super marbled ribeyes at the meat counter. Not today, but you'll be mine, lovelies, as soon as I consume (and ketoize with cheese, butter, and cream) my fat free freezer stash.

    Hey, great to see you here my friend! :)

    I have some 99% lean turkey in my freezer too, but it's just for the protein boost. I have trouble getting enough protein in but no problems getting fats in, lol. It gets mixed in with fatty sausage ground meat and bacon for meatballs or keto chili :)

    When it's shark week, and you go to buy 12 hot wings to take home. Then find out they gave you boneless breaded wings. After that you cry and cry and cry. Then eat fat bombs for dinner:) because chocolate!

    Or when you go to Wendys and get a bunless baconator with only cheese and bacon....and I get just the patty in a salad box. I learned to check before I leave...the "bunless" term confuses them..lol...

    *Let me preface this by adding that I've been eating string cheese a lot lately for the first time in my life and also, I seem to have really weird dreams when LCHF*

    You have a dream that you're at some sort of fair/amusement park and there is a giant string cheese the size of the Empire State Building being hoisted up by a crane a hundred feet above ground and then dropped.

    When you order a big mac for lunch while out shopping but forget to ask for a fork, so you eat the burger out of the bun bite by bite like a duck eating bread. This was me Sunday.

    Do you have a video? :D

    When you're at the movies at the condiment bar, putting mustard on your hot dog and you casually throw away the bun... while the guy next to you watches you in horror.

    My new road trip snacks - chicken wings, salami sticks and nuts. Used to be 2x bags of lollies, sandwiches and some cake or biscuits. Oh and also I now have little pottles of coconut oil in my handbag in case I need some more fat :)

    When you get caught in an awkward conversation about cake recipes and you mumble the appropriate stuff like "that sounds amazing" but deep inside you feel like a kid in the old afterschool special movies...lying to fit in! lmao

    The 'peer pressure' :D

    Ha...yes!!! Or when someone tells you a recipe and brags "and it's low fat!!"

    I'm afraid I've got one of those no filter faces so I'm sure I'm saying "great" and my face is reacting like they are talking about dog poop or something! haha.

    My mom and I were buying some cupcakes for a birthday dinner this week and I'm like "let's get this pack, there are only six." Mom is arguing we need more so people can have extra. Then I try to direct her to the tiny two bite cupcakes. Nope. I'm just cringing thinking people don't need ANY of these cakes. Sugar! Carbs! Cant' mom see I'm trying to help people help themselves? UGHHHH lol
