More fat, more protein.

.

Check.

Start from the start.  That is what I am certain about.  The goal?  Between 1,800 and 2,000 calories between those, at about half of each, though higher fats would be preferred.

The maths are... ticklish.  If you realize that each gram of fat is 9 calories, and each gram of protein is four calories, and you need, say 70% to 85% by calories of fat?  But... too... currently, for healing, I need at least 155 grams of protein a day?  It... begins to get sticky.  So, after doing it yesterday, I am going to try to do it again today.

With 155 (and actually more like between 185 and 235 grams (depending on which advice one takes)) grams of protein, that is 620 calories, at the base, 940 calories if I go with the high end?  So... lets go with 200 grams, and call it 800 calories, of protein.  Doing the math in my head, so... but should be roughly close enough, if not spot on?  Should be.

Okay, so 800 calories of protein?  That leaves between 1 and 1.2 k calories from fat.  That is 111 to 133 grams of fat a day.

Lets get likes with likes.  So, I'm looking at 800 calories of protein, averaged, and 1,100 calories of fat. =  Which is 200 grams of protein and 122 grams of fat.

Okay.  So far I have been having a heck of a time eating enough food to get anywhere near that.  Currently, six hundred calories a day, mostly of fats from fatted coffee?  But, often, half that, with just the fat from the coffee.  Starvation.  I have enough fat that it isn't going to kill me.  But there isn't enough to push through the metabolism to burn more fat.  The body is just sitting on what it has, and I am crippled for and by it.

So?  So... I need to get more fat in, and more protein.  There are protein powders.  But the good ones?  Would cost $75 a month, offering 76 grams of protein, and how bioavailable that would be is dubious.  Half?  Probably, if lucky, it's the good stuff, and my body is working as it should.  But... there is that.  Or... more steaks?  Burger works, but it is the most difficult to eat.  Pork?  I just can't do that anymore.  Though, with the bitters?  Maybe.  I may try that.

As to fat?  That I think I can solve easily and cheaply.  Adding more cream to my coffee.  One cup of whole cream is about 809 calories, with 86 grams of fat, 6.5 grams of carbs, and 6.8 grams of protein.  That... would really put me on the way.  Then, add five eggs and half a pound of burger, steak, chops?

I also looked at fat bombs.  I went shopping for them, but no way.  Way outside of my finances.  So, I looked at some to make.  An easy one would be burned butter bombs.  Though, too, cream cheese "cakes" of certain types would also do.  Yes, I'll include vids.

The real problem is the amount of protein.  Just to eat that much food is... a trick.

I am going to start.  Tonight.  Well, already.  I just had a fatted coffee, with a cup of fat.  Now I am going to make eggs and corned beef hash.  That... will be an excellent start for the day.  Tomorrow?  I don't think I have good butter.  The next time I am out I will see about several butters.  From the local raw dairy, the Amish offerings, and see what else the store has that has nothing added but cream.  Salt free these days.  Never sure how much salt they actually end up adding, or how much you'll get in your portion.

So... yeah.  Okay.  I'll... start back to eating.

I grabbed laundry from upstairs and in the bathroom.  Put that back in the washroom.  Will hit the dishes, which soaked overnight.  Set them out as I wash them.  Get a shower.  Then put them back.  Then start up laundry.  A bit at a time.  Might shave?  Yes, that would be good.  And brush the teeth.

Then take a break.  After which, begin heating the griddle and prepping the eggs and corned beef hash.  Hmm... I'll float test the eggs.  Oh, I know they are good.  When I do this, knowing they are this fresh, I am just washing them, and warming them.  They fry better at roomish temps.

So?  Yes, yes I am back to it, I think.  Or... there is some hope that I will be.

I best get going.  Later.
