  • I think it can be pretty obvious if you're eating too few calories. Restless sleep, mood disturbance, mental and muscle fatigue, lack of focus, etc. I've definitely been eating too few calories for the past week. I've been doing 18:6 to 20:4 IF for years and am used to eating a large meal for dinner #1 and a smaller meal…
  • I've used mayonnaise extensively, especially on a fat fast. It's hard for me to get 6tbsp of mayo down the gullet without a bulky delivery vehicle, though so I used lots of veggies to help. My typical fat fast meal was 2.5 cups broccoli, 6TBSP mayo, and a very fatty protein source (most frozen prepared meatballs are very…
  • I went to a burlesque show last night planning to have a couple beers and the bar didn't have Miller Lite. ::crestfallen:: The lightest beers they had to offer were PBR and Lonestar ("the national beer of Texas"). Chose Lonestar, my go-to beer from my 20s, had 3.5 and tossed the last beer without bothering to finish it.…
  • Personally, I prefer to supplement my fat intake with heavy whipping cream than MCT or coconut oil. Straight oil makes me a bit queasy and I'm not buying the hype on MCTs yet. The macros are about the same (same enough for me) and HWC is so much more pleasant on the palate and incorporates better into shakes, soups and…

Sake isn't typically on my libation itinerary unless I'm at a Japanese restaurant, but last night's enjoyment may be changing that. It was so smooth and crisp and…
  • This blog lecture site is a great source of information! https://intensivedietarymanagement.com/dietary-cholesterol-important-idm-4-2/
  • I do miller lite as well. It's 3.2g carbs and 96 calories per 12oz and the best of the lite beers in my opinion (I've tried Ultra, and would rather take the extra .7g carb :wink:). I know alcohol calories hold off fat burning since the body uses those calories first. I figure at 4.2% alcohol a can comes down to about .5oz…
  • A couple years ago (2012, I think), I went through a phase lasting about 3 months where I only wanted to eat almonds and almond butter. I was just so stuck on almonds. My weekly habit was 5 pounds of roasted salted almonds and 2 jars of Maranatha almond butter. Doing some quick calorie math, that's 13,040 calories in…
