I am back babe! And boy do I feel GREAT!
After a week and a half of headaches and stomach issues, all is well. Purging session! The energy levels are back, my moods are stable (sort of... hee hee) and my clothing feels a bit looser!
This time around the only dairy I am consuming is cream in my coffee. I have some concerns about calcium and magnesium but I do eat green leafy veggies more than not, a supplement, though I question the aide of that and and and... So that leaves, veg, fruit (loving cherries and blueberries this year!) and MEAT.
We've ordered a 1/4 of a grass fed cow!
K, my sis law, has the other 1/4. We are able to pick the way we want it cut up AND packaged! I cannot imagine how this amount of meat is going to look like!! This place that is providing the cow.. name has escaped me... has been tinkering with the amount of grain they feed at the end, for the past 6-7 years. They taste tested a cow fully grass fed and found it to be too tough. From that point, they played with the amount of grain and found a nice balance. The grain provides fat, the marbling in the meat! So much to learn but WHEN??? As far as i know, this will be my first time eating mostly grass fed anything. I am hoping it's not too ?
Ash wants the organs too! He's into trying these sorts of um, delicacies?? I've come around to liver but it's dressed up with red wine, rosemary and ONIONS! I read on a blog that shared a survival tip while eating organ meats....plug your nose, mince up the organ meat, put it in the old trap and then chase it with lime water. The lime water helps wash away that gaggy aftertaste from your mouth. Wyatt was excited about this way of consuming liver!
Plain and simple but boy what a difference! Here's to betterness at the MacDougall zoo!
