Fats first.

The easiest and best way to deliver fats is through meats, cheeses, cream, and such.  The most difficult way is through carbs, even or especially greens.  Dressing helps, but there is a limit.  However, I know I need some things greens offer.  I finished my meal and, simply could not eat more.  However, wanting to push greens for exacting dietary needs, and dire ones, I set the alarm this time.  I was hoping I might get a second gastronomic wind... of the consumptive type anyway.  Flatulence has ended, which I don't think is a good thing?  I think it means I am out of ketosis.  Or my body no longer gets that side effect?  It is all an experiment at this point.

I did get my second wind, and was then able to consume a pretty large portion of greens.  Romaine lettuce, by three fourths I should guess, with spinach filling the other fourth, or third perhaps.  Dressing, and plenty of it.  As much as possible.  Actually, just a normal ratio, it was simply a large salad, and then the remnants.  Oh, and grated asiago, pepper, and a touch of salt.  It was good about two thirds through the second meal and seconds.  Then it just became... hmm... grass to the cow...  urhm bull.  Moo!  Still, I hope it puts something good in.  Something is a bit off.

I may or may not have mentioned, but I did find several sources of potassium powder... that is usually able to be stronger anyway.  I questioned which was non-Chinese.  Only one answered, but with the answer I wanted.  Not made, sourced, bottled, or shipped through China.  New trick is to bottle it in, say, Illinois but have it all made, bottle included for all I know, in China.  Or even say it is made in the US, but somehow gets shipped through China.  WTF?  No.  Slimy bastards, gotta watch them every second.  Actually, there was only one that simply stated nothing was through, from, out of, by the way of, or otherwise involved with China.  One.  Still, I'll be ordering that tomorrow.  I may order it singularly, with extra fast shipping.  Yeah, something is really a bit off.  I really want to be set for longer fast periods when the time arrives.  That means not just having the extra vitamins, minerals, and whatnot, but having them already working in my system.

Truth be told, I don't think I am fasting any more than I used to fast.  It's just that it used to be uncontrolled fasting.  Which is how I broke diabetes twice before.  It takes a while.  Though I think I "fasted" for much longer periods of time.  Weeks.  They say you can't go without food for x... like a month and an half.  I think you can, especially if you are sleeping most of it.  While, until recently, I wasn't able to sleep extended periods, I have found that with the ac on, even in high summer, in my newer state, I might be able to sleep more, much more.  I don't want to do months, again, or weeks.  But several days would be fine... just to kill time until perhaps it is cool enough when it is light enough to go walking.  At 99 F, I just don't see that happening any time soon.  Later.
