Here are all three days condensed into one entry. There is some repetition because I want to eat the leftovers before they spoil. The next three days will likely involve some other sequence of different, but related foods. I think the diary was a popular request because it is hard to use your imagination to come up with a different way of eating after you have been doing it for so long. Habits form and then you fall into a rut. Variety, freshness, texture, and color are good guides to eating. Low energy density is desirable.

One thing you will see about the food is the weight; the meals are heavy in weight and quite filling. Yet, the high water content, which is key to weight, makes digestion fairly easy. And the energy density is low. As I look over these meals there is no simple CHO and no manufactured food.

I go through a store on the perimeter, first to the produce, then to the meat, seafood, and eggs. Now and then I make a stop in the canned meat section to get some tuna, salmon, and smoked oysters. Then I leave. I have no clue what is in the center of the store, aside from the beer section. When my wife asks me to get bread, pasta, or frozen foods I have a hard time finding them. This is rare as she eats the same way I do, but for the odd waffle and toast now and then.

Day 1

Breakfast: three eggs with one yolk omlette style with fresh rosemary from my yard. Three link sausages. Three slices of honeydew melon and two slices of cantelope. Two cups of coffee.

Lunch: a handful of mixed nuts. About half a roasted chicken over romaine lettuce with some raw broccoli pieces. A large chunk of chopped ginger. With balsamic vinegar and olive oil. One Budweiser beer.

Dinner: a few nuts before dinner. A mustard green salad with blue cheese dressing. Two smoked pork chops, six asperagas spears, a large piece of broccoli. Half a cup of coffee.

Day 2

Breakfast: 4 chunks of Jennie-O smoked turkey breast. Three large slices of a large honeydew melon, cut end to end. About a cup and a half of cottage cheese. Two cups of coffee. A fast, easy and nutritious meal.

Lunch: Trader Joe's smoked salmon, the whole can, over raw broccoli, romaine lettuce, kale, two cloves of garlic, a large chunk of ginger. A Budweiser beer.

Dinner: a wonderful meal. Here is a picture.

Half a side of baby back ribs, done in an improvised Greek style. I used Greek olives, which I grilled, along with the olive juice on the ribs. A little bit of very low carb Kraft barbecue sauce (CarbWell I think was the label) for a bit of tomato flavor, Chipolte sauce, and a bit of Greek dressing (Kraft Athenos). An artichoke for our salad, dipped in olive oil and red pepper flakes and a large stem of bok choy which I grilled along with the ribs.

Day 3

Breakfast: half a ham steak, three eggs with one yolk fried with fresh rosemary. One navel orange, two large slices of honeydew melon. Two cups of coffee.

Lunch: chunks of turkey breast, leftover roasted chicken, one apple. A Budweiser beer.

Dinner: leftover Greek ribs, half a rack, and grilled Bok Choy. Half a cup of coffee.
