(If this is the wrong forum for this post, could a mod please relocate it? Thanks!)
As I mentioned in my intro post, I started Peating 2.5 weeks ago. That means, I still have a lot to learn. But, I do like my early results.
My goals: 1. boost my thyroid function and “fix” my endocrine system as a whole; 2. increase my energy and mobility; 3. lose weight
A typical day thus far looks something like this:
Breakfast: 2-3 eggs (from my free-range chickens), fried new potatoes (in coconut oil), orange juice
Snack: raw carrots, cheese, milk (organic, whole)
Lunch: 3 ozs meat and/or cheese OR corn tortilla (fried in coconut oil) with hummus, a few leaves of lettuce, grape tomatoes, a splash of apple cider vinegar
Snack: yogurt, orange juice
Dinner: 3 ozs protein (venison, pork, chicken), white potato OR sweet potato – either with coconut oil, green beans
9pm: either a small serving of Haagen Daz OR a cup of milk with a tbsp of sugar
Bedtime: 4 oz water with Natural Calm magnesium, niacin (100mg), zinc (75mg), Thyroid Complex glandular, vitamin C (1000mg)
I’m working on connecting with a local dairy to obtain raw cow or goat milk. I have not yet ordered some gelatin powder but we typically make a bone broth whenever cooking meats with bones.
I will be starting my vegetable garden soon and was wondering what vegetables, if any other than carrots, are “Peat approved”. I really don’t want to go vegetable-less. I’ve got fruit trees started but they will be a few years before producing a crop. I have access to local “U-Picks” for various fruits (but not citrus).
I am raising rabbits for meat (hope that doesn’t offend anyone—please no hate mail if you disapprove) – what are the thoughts on rabbit meat in a Peatist diet?
So, what am I doing right, wrong, and any other thoughts or suggestions?
