There is no way I couldn’t think about food or not be bothered by being hungry, but I find satisfaction in suffering.
I have control of my mind despite my wants. It’s easy to talk yourself into doing the easy thing when you’re hungry so to have control over that is a small accomplishment for me.
I don’t want to be like the normies, their weaknesses and constant capitulations are disgusting to me.
I like the way that Dr. Shanahan puts in in her books, that eating and fasting are not hard to do when you eat healthy food.
So my goal is to find the diet that makes that true for me. What foods do I eat that make fasting something I don't even have to think about?
I’ve heard that too but haven’t found it to be completely true personally.
I was a person who would eat every ≈3 hours in my fiat days, though not junk food or anything. But I have a very fast metabolism and an active brain so I’d eat often and I’d eat a lot everyday.
Since switching to carnivore and being very disciplined with the regimen I now typically eat twice a day, something like 1+ lb of ground beef plus eggs in the morning and 1.5 lb of steak for dinner. Interval of eating is way down but I do still get hungry during the day, though a lot less hungry than when I ate carbs and sugar regularly. And I can handle the hunger no issue, where before I’d feel weak or light headed even.
I’m not sure I’ll ever get to that Valhalla stage of not being hungry while fasting. But I can fast now and do when I travel or when I’m busy and it’s no issue. Whereas before it was not even an option.
Dude, nice. It might be an unattainable goal, but it'll pull me towards better health nonetheless.
Absolutely, it’s a great goal. I’m not trying to shit on it just sharing my experience. And who knows maybe things will change for me in time too. Regardless I’m a big fan of how I feel eating meat and am definitely at my best physically and mentally despite being almost 40. Pretty remarkable.
