Third week of LC and for the first time hungry...
Hi,
I am just past "induction" and yesterday for the first time in my lowcarbing I felt something I did not know for the two weeks... Hunger. I feel like there is something missing in my food. It is good that I am definitely NOT craving for simple carbs. Potatos, wheat products and other carb junk leave me absolutely cold. What would probably satisfied my taste would be more fruits, I feel I would be able to eat a lot of oranges. But each orange is about 10g of fructosa... Another explanation is a lack of caffein - I tried to reduce it now (I know I should have done it on induction, that is why I call my induction "fairly clean" rather than "clean"). I have found that when I drink coffee with fair amount of cream, it keeps me satisfied for several hours. Or could it be the lack of fiber ? Days before I was often eating cabage for super. Lightly fried with oil to get soft, mixed with cream cheese and mushrooms tastes great, but you cannot have it each day. What I definitely know is I am unable to eat more fat right now Mirek |

I would be able to eat a lot of oranges. But each orange is about 10g of fructosa... induction is only two weeks. you can add fruit back into your diet after you finish induction. be patient. Yes. I guess I need some strawberries Or could it be the lack of fiber ? Days before I was often eating cabage for super. Lightly fried with oil to get soft, mixed with cream cheese and mushrooms tastes great, but you cannot have it each day. why can't you have it each day? if you like it, eat it. I think, based on what I have read, that the highest dandger for LC dropout is boredome. It might taste good, but it is still the same thing... Anyway, thanks for reply. Mirek |

Do an internet search for: low carbohydrate recipes
No need to be bored. Find new things to cook. Cookie -- ############ "Mirek Fidler" wrote in message ...

I can't imagine being bored. There's so much food out there we can
eat. It's just about being creative and taking the time to cook. Even if you only have 1 day a week. Cook alot then freeze it for the week. I'm so glad it's forcing me to do this cause now I really know what the hell I'm eating and it taste better than any fast food. In fact yesterday I got hungry (on my fat fast which I'm off now I figured out I need more fat in my diet) and decided to buy pork rinds. Now mind you I refused to eat pork for over 15 years! I thought about it and there was no rational exlanation as to why not (except I still dislike the taste of ham and pork chops)But now I can add a number of new things to eat like bacon and faux cinnomon crips etc. It's great! |

It might taste good, but it is still the same thing... if you like it and want to eat it, then how is it boring? i often eat the same things for weeks on end and i don't get bored of them. don't let outside forces decide things for you. you like it and it fits in your plan? then eat it whenever you want it. *if* you get bored, then switch to something else...but don't plan on being bored ahead of time. |

snip Days before I was often eating cabage for super. Lightly fried with oil to get soft, mixed with cream cheese and mushrooms tastes great, but you cannot have it each day. What I definitely know is I am unable to eat more fat right now Mirek For the last few days I have been thinking of the meal that you posted. I made some sautéed cabbage with cream cheese and sautéed mushrooms tonight. I added some chicken breast meat cut up. This was really tasty and filling. Thank you for posting the combination it was very good. I imagine adding cooked ground beef to this mixture would be good too. I think I'll be trying that next time. Thank you Mirek. -lcf 273/183/150 |
