Happy Wednesday after a holiday, buddies...LOL! I've been busy with home projects, but staying with OMAD and keeping fairly low on carbs. I have found that I get hungrier when I go over 20, so it's a fine balancing act between staying completely keto, and losing my appetite, and upping the carbs without losing ketosis so I still get hungry. I've noticed, too that if I do indulge in a starchy carb, the carb cravings come on with a vengeance, and last for about 3 days.
Even while my weight stays the same, my body is still changing. I pulled out a pair of slacks this morning, which when I wore them a couple of weeks ago, were comfortably snug at the waist. They were loose when I put them on today, so much so that they kept sliding down my hips! I was actually able to pull them off without undoing the button and zipper. Another pair for the charity heap.
The tomato chips came out really good! I kept them plain, so if I want to I can grind them into powder. If you have never cooked with tomato powder, you're missing out! All the flavor of fresh tomatoes, without having to cook them down. I powder a lot of my dehydrated veggies. Just grind them up in a coffee grinder and store in a cool dry place.
A few months ago, I discovered something called "jowl bacon', made from smoked pig cheeks. Nice and fatty, the way I like my bacon, and very tender meat. When I went to get some more, they had none. But, at another store, I found chunks of it, in 1-2 pound chunks. No problem! I happen to own not one, but 2 electric meat slicers. The smaller one is good for prepping veggies for the dehydrator, but the big one is awesome for meats. It's so much less expensive to buy bulk lunch meats!
It took me less than 10 minutes to slice up 5 lbs of wonderful bacon.
Enough rambling, I think.
Have a great night!
