Days 32, 10 days left! I fasted yesterday until about 4 pm, which turned out to be a bit of a bad idea. The Carrington Farms liquid coconut oil is WAY better for my GI compared to the Piping Rock as it has a lower percentage of MCTs, still, it’s not close to the same as consuming avocado oil or heavy cream. To keep the experiment isocaloric (same calories every day, no matter what) I needed to consume 3 blender bottles over the next 4 hours. In the past this has been really easy, wasn’t yesterday and by the end of it I needed to go lie down and wallow in freakish misery forever (sorry, just quoting the Dread Pirate Roberts). I’m looking forward to 10 days from now when I can go back to Heavy Whipping Cream + Avocado Oil like normal (and I’m going to eat a steak).
Last night we continued our family tradition of getting together and watching the Superb Owl ads… with some football in between them. Honestly, I’d have to say Tide won – wasn’t even close. I think they would have even beat Oreos a few years ago with the quiet library fight ad. Aside from that, I didn’t really care which football team won, I just like a close game and I was quite pleased, highly entertaining until the very end. Because I wasn’t going to be eating any of the food, it was a little hard for me to summon the drive to make much. Still, everyone pitched in and we had a rather respectable spread of keto food, including veggies, pork rinds and dip, keto peanut butter bars, keto egg nog, cheese and more cheese, and some jalapeno poppers I found at Walmart.
I’m probably going to mix up a test meal of the dextrose today to see if it mixes well and has the right sweetness without sucralose.
