Seafarer Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 Sleep: 6 hours (but I went to bed far too late) Day 41: M1: blueberries/almond milk, sausage, carrot souffle, 1/2 coffee M2: blueberries/almond milk, salmon, tomatoes/mayo, gingered club soda M3: steak, potatoes, green beans, ghee, sliver of canteloupe (just picked - first one from the garden) Water: 50 oz Activity: not much; some garden Stress: not much Noted: no cramps or other digestive problems today. Yay! Lots of hunger pangs... not sure if it was the extra fruit or the short rations over the past few days finally catching up with me. Or lack of water. Or lack of sleep. Oh well.

Seafarer Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Sleep: 8 hours with pit stop at the 6 hour mark Day 44: M1: 2 scrambled eggs, eggplant. M2: skipped (stomach cramps ongoing from M1) S: 1/2 cup chicken M3: 1/2 cup mashed potato/sweet potato/carrots S: 1/2 cup mashed potato Water: 50 oz (mostly fairly strong ginger water with club soda. Tea & water don't sit well.) Activity: garden: picked apples, weeded, transplanted perennials, dug potatoes, hauled brush, etc. About 4+ hours Stress: low Note: Well, this was my target end date, and I am anxious to start re-intro's just so I can better navigate upcoming events, but I'm not sure I could tell what reactions there are, if any, due to ongoing stomach issues, so I guess I'll just keep on keepin' on. When I try to eat a full template I feel awful so... bland meals with very small portions seems like it might work better for a while. It feels like snacking but.... oh well. NSV: pretty good energy levels, in spite of everything. After spending most of the day outdoors, I spent the evening volunteering at the local community theatre, bought groceries on the way home, and then cleaned the kitchen. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seafarer Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Sleep: 6 hours, which isn't bad since I stayed up & watched the eclipse from start to finish. Worth it! Day 46: M1: 2 eggs & sauteed zucchini, coconut oil M2: chicken, potato, carrot, ghee S: 1/3 cup fruit (ground cherries + pears + cantaloupe) sprinkled with coconut. 2 bites chicken M3: steak, beets S: smoothie with 1 raw egg, almond milk, almond butter, 1 pear Water: 60 oz Activity: garden 6+ hours. Moving mulch, raking, lifting, lugging... Stress: nada Note: Kind of hungry mid afternoon, and was out of energy, but was a little afraid to eat (the cramps have been worse if the meals aren't at least 5 hours apart even though I'm not eating much) so had the snack (I know... fruit!.... but it was all just picked & so fresh.... ) and I fully expected to have some cramping (because it was fruit!) but nothing. By suppertime my energy level was toast, but again.... the experience of the past week or so made me think eating after a mid afternoon snack wasn't going to go well, so portions were small, and by the time I finished I decided to go do some more work in the garden & by the time I was almost finished with that I was ravenous. From the fruit? the activity? All I know is... Ravenous without cramps. I decided to make it a liquid meal, just in case all this extra food might cause a problem, but I didn't have any soup on hand, so made it a smoothie (sorry jmcbn.... day 46 though....). So far so good. Fingers crossed for tomorrow. (Need to make veg soup tomorrow! And a veg casserole.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seafarer Posted October 2, 2015 Author Share Posted October 2, 2015 Sleep: 65 hours Day 49: M1: chopped up pear in almond milk sprinkled with coconut & almonds, steak, tomatoes & mayo M2: leftover steak, leftover salmon, sliced & "breaded" eggplant slices fried in coconut oil M3: chicken, potatoes, carrots, turnip Water: 50 oz Activity: none Stress: Minimal Note: Holy banana peels Batman! Where'n heck did those cravings come from? Man, I was all over the map this afternoon! I wanted wine, grilled cheese, popcorn.... I am so glad I am keeping this food log, because I can look back & see what happened on previous days when I had the same foods (or close to). Sheeesh! NSV: I can figure this out... and not repeat. Hopefully ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seafarer Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 Day 55: I forgot that I was supposed to start re-introductions yesterday. I guess I wasn't missing anything. Of course this puts the schedule off, but it was all meant to be flexible anyway. Moving to Seafarer's Post W30 Log.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
