MY MENU

Yesterday, I ate this:

140g fat (80%)
58g protein
23g carbs

I ate breakfast at 5:00 am.  I had a cup of my homemade beef bone broth with sea salt and gelatin.

I ate a snack at 10:00 am.  I had  my special Sunrise Cocktail made of olive oil, MCT oil, cod liver oil, lemon juice and Stevia.

I ate lunch at 2:30 pm.  I had a can of wild-caught sardines in olive oil and lemon, and canned pumpkin with coconut mild, cinnamon, nutmeg and Stevia.

I had dinner at 7:00 pm. I had 3 thick slices of bacon, and a salad made of grape tomatoes, avocado, my homemade mayo and sea salt.

I drank 72 oz. of water, but never within an hour before eating or an hour after eating, in order to not dilute my stomach acid.


MY EXERCISE

I took a 2-mile walk after dinner.
