    Day 17 (10/1/19) AM BM, finally getting to the consistency of my old “Whole 30-worthy” BMs of yore. M1: egg frittata + salsa + foraged mushroom + mixed greens + ghee M2: braised beef + braised greens + roasted squash + roasted vinegar beets + green beans + cherry tomato + beef-vegetable soup Snack: two apples M3: braised short ribs + beef broth + coconut aminos + red bell pepper The most difficult component I’ve been facing in this process so far is overcoming my desire to step on the scale and check to see if I’ve lost weight and, if so, how much.
