Okay so today was my first day trying to fully embrace the Peat style eating, except midway through it went horribly wrong!
I started the day with coffee which I never drink. Added tons of cream, a big spoonful of honey and a spoonful of Knox plain gelatin. I was feeling really good. Then I ate several big slices of cheese which I continued snacking on right up until I started making lunch. (I had a late breakfast and early lunch so it was not even 2 hours between them.)
So then I start my lunch with a glass of freshly squeezed oj, lightly salted. Again something I never drink. As I was drinking it I had some more cheese... didn't feel that hungry or anything but thought I better have some more food so I made some white rice. Added salt and lots of butter.
I was going to make more food but then as I started eating the rice and continued drinking the oj, all of a sudden I felt hot, started to sweat, and then got really lightheaded and dizzy and weak.
I was talking on the phone to a friend and had to get off and lie down. I was totally clumsy and couldn't think straight. The feeling didn't go away so after 10 mins or so I got up and fried some eggs in butter. Thought maybe I needed more protein than the cheese was giving me. Ate one but I could barely get it down and still felt weird anyway. Lied down again.
By this time I'm suddenly ravenous. I got up again and had some raw carrots. No change. Then wondered do I need more sugar? So I had some spoonfuls of vanilla Haagen Daz. Then I tried to nap it off for 30 mins and it sort of worked, but when I got up I was still feeling weird. So as a last resort I had some PUFA rice crackers that were lying around the house and some homemade chocolate graham cracker squares. Didn't really help though.
And now here I am. Still feel weird and weak - and hungry yet no food seems appealing. What the hell did I do??
