I wonder whether I’m eating enough. The nice thing about carnivore is that I like all of the food that I’m eating, but it’s also not the sort of food that runs around in the back of your mind, pulls you off of the couch and takes you to the fridge. It’s not a pint of ice cream, it’s not the latest batch of cookies. I don’t impulse BBQ a steak. In fact given my druthers I like to salt my steak hours ahead of time. My only “Impulse” food is bacon.
None of this is a problem, but my appetite and need to pay attention to it is reduced. I simply don’t get as hungry as before, and if I’m just a little hungry and I don’t have anything planned, I just don’t bother with the inconvenience of eating. Yes, I could slice up some cheese, but I’ve decided to keep dairy out of my diet for at least another few months. No, that does not include butter.
All of that is to say that I wonder if I should be making a point to take in more calories than I am. No way to be sure, so I’ll keep going, but it’s just something on my mind at this point in the process.
