15 May 2016

Two coworkers have been striving for a keto diet the last few months and weeks, respectively, and I've been playing in the discussion but not really achieving low carb.  I've been thinking low carb, but eating homemade french fries and Cliff/Kind/Lara bars.  So...Friday I started tracking just what I was eating and this weekend saw me writing everything down in my notebook.  According to this calculator, I should be eating the following:

2334kcal Daily Calorie Intake
25g Carbs (4%, 100 kcal)
148g Protein (25%, 592 kcal)
182g Fat (71%, 1642 kcal)
Well I've been eating too much!  Yesterday I ate around 170g of protein and over 200g of fat (carbs were around 30g).  This morning I course-corrected and ate a cheeseburger patty, 3 slices of bacon, 3 eggs over hard with extra butter, with coffee of course.  Lunch was tuna salad made from one can of tuna, one can of sardines, 4 tablespoons of sour cream, 2 tsp of mustard, dill and salt.  This was on top of lettuce with some sliced almonds on top.  Dinner will be spare ribs with boiled broccoli and lots of butter.  Thankfully I eat the spareribs fat and connective tissue so that should be some good collagen.  Apparently American Chinese cuisine spareribs are different from real Chinese cuisine spareribs.  Now I want dim sum.

Weekends there's a guy who gives free pontoon boat rides out to the closest island (not this island).  So we spent the afternoon getting Vitamin D, flying a kite and getting sand in our nooks and crannies.  Time to shower and think about What Would Jon Snow Do?
