Why no vegetables?

I assume you're not eating a pile of green chiles.

Green BEANS?

DAY FOUR Thursday, 10 May 2012

Morning weight: 255

Lift: Bench deload, T-bar rows, reverse hypers

Breakfast: coffee shake- three scoops Carnivor, 2T instant coffee, 3oz half and half, fill shaker to top with water. Thought about having a cup of Chobani, but I want to run this for a minute and see how carbs vs energy vs fat loss is working for a minute.

Lunch: a pound of smoked beef brisket (no sauce) and a small side of cole slaw- no sugar, according to the lady at the counter. Not sure if I believe her.

Dinner: Pepperoni and shredded cheese with romaine in a low carb tortilla. Some tea. Who knew pepperoni (at least the bag of Hormel pepperoni I have) is zero carb? Sure it's high in fat, cholesterol, and sodium but that's not the point!

Maybe a little peanut butter later.

Right now I'm using a loose 30gram/day limit.

Why is the amount of instant coffee changing? Are you changing the amount based on how much caffeine you want/need for the morning?

Also, how is that shake you're making? Is it "meh, okay I'll drink it" or "wow, that's good"?

I have normally done 2T coffee in the shake as a rule, but the Carnivor has a light enough flavor that the coffee makes the shake overall sharper/more acidic tasting than I would like, especially with not using 2% or whole milk. It's a taste thing. If I could get away with 3T coffee in the shakes, I would.

You have to play with ratios of ingredients for your own taste, but I like the shakes a lot.

Yes, also just what I would drink in coffee at home. The shake as a whole is basically my breakfast and my morning coffee combined and it's cheaper and better nutritionally than getting Starbucks and a muffin in the morning as far as my needs go.

The bread is the bomb!
I'm going to order no later than about the 15th. If you "Jones" too bad for bread, let me know I have ONE loaf left in the freezer and I'll let you sample.

Just to tempt you!

The diabetic sections had things I was afraid to try, but so far the only thing I've had that is HORRIBLE is that spaghetti sauce that's zero carb/zero calorie.

The BBQ sauce and the ketchup are both not bad, but they are thin. I use the ketchup to top my meatloaf with and that way I only have to mix in a single tablespoon of tomato paste to thicken it. Tomato paste has some carbs based off the tomatoes being a fruit rather than a veggie, and organic brands with no added corn syrup or sugar are naturally lower in carb.

I load up at farmer's market on broccoli, brussels sprouts, zuchhini, mushrooms and beans. Lima beans are loaded with protein and while their carb count is high, you get to subtract the fiber. If you plan and balance the rest of your day, you can have them. I keep to the same salads you do––romaine, green and red leaf and spinach leaves.

I'm going to IM you my number. If you don't mind a short drive, call me and I'll give you half that loaf in the freezer to try before you buy. It will keep in the refrigerator for about a week.

You're welcome.

It sucks, too, because the guy seems actually intelligent and backs almost all of his stuff up with citations.

Obviously not an arfcommer.

So whatcha been lookin at

For whatever its worth the mobil version is safe so far

The man is nothing if not adherent to his schedule.
