Health Journey 2026 - Day 51

Hello everyone, how are you all doing? It is the beginning of day 52 I guess you could say, but I thought I would share how I did on day 51. It was another day of pretty good blood sugars, mostly staying in the range of 70s to 90s. Except for now it is in the low 100s. I think my dinner may have had to do with that (the meat) but not sure. What did I eat? Meal 1 - Burger King whopper patty, cheese, and bacon. No bun of course. Meal 2 - about 6 oz salmon, 4 lil' smokies (with a small amount of sugar free BBQ sauce) and a little butter. Meal 3 - about 4 oz deli ham and 2 slices of gouda cheese. Some butter to get my fat to where I needed it to be. Macros -- 1,457 calories, 7 carbs, 118 fat, 92 protein I don't think the macros were too bad today. I wasn't sure what to really eat today with nothing defrosted but the meal out did help. I have found some new carnivore recipes that I want to try soon - some breaded chicken tenders, but the breading is pork panko (crushed up pork rinds), and some faux potato salad (it's eggs instead of potatoes). Just need to buy some chicken at the store. Would you try those? Any other interesting meal ideas that would fit my diet?

Those pork panko chicken tenders sound really good, I might have to steal that idea. Your blood sugars staying in that range most the day is awesome, you're doing great with this. Good luck finding chicken at the store lol.

They definitely do...too bad finding beef tallow to cook them in won't be as easy as finding the chicken lol. If you do, I'd just say don't cook them in seed oils. Yes that is great too about the blood sugars.

@MommyOfEli2013 You can purchase beef tallow on Amazon, or at Costco. And Walmart.com has everything like that.

@MarieCoyle Well depends if we can get them using the food card on amazon, I know some items you can. Still haven't gone and rejoined costco. and don't really purchase from the walmart website. I think walmart does have tallow in person, but not a big container

I like the thought of eggs instead of potatoes. Because I like potato salad, but sometimes the potato pieces are too big for my liking.

I didn't know that about potato salad, never ate it because a lot of ingredients in wouldn't like lol. I don't know how satisfying a faux potato salad would be though lol, I might just call it egg salad lol

That sounds good. I don't have any recipe ideas for you. I am researching recipes with mushrooms in them. We love mushrooms and I think it would be an economical way to go for this winter. Having mushrooms occasionally.

@MommyOfEli2013 ..........Mushrooms have a interesting flavor. I like them. They can be expensive if you get the harder to find varieties. I like to use them sauteed. They are nice as a side dish. Some like them and some don't.
