Many of the books referenced in this thread discuss how "bad" pasta is in that it fills you up with a ton of calories but is then gone (doesn't maintain satiety). Never noticed it until last night; my wife made a garlic shrimp pasta. I ate a reasonable portion, and then about an hour later I felt incredibly hungry and desiring carbs and sweets. I hadn't ever noted that reaction but hadn't had hardly any pasta since starting my journey.

Pork chop, seasoned bread crumbs, pan fried lard. Ate 2, feel very full and comfortable.

Anyone remember when I used to laugh at people calling deer meat all natural? I think i have beat it into enough people's head that the eating of GMO crops has effected our deer herds. Looking at the hooves of @bowhunter1023 buck proves that IMO. I also think it had played a roll in the reproduction of the deer. All this thinking started as I learned about all this stuff and how it works on humans.

Not sure where I'm going with this, just trying to stimulate thought. I've argued with no one but myself over this subject for a long time.

I guess I'm on week whatever of eating cleaner. I've "cheated" here and there, always too much regret in the form of feeling like shit and inflammation. It's not really a "personal choice" to eat clean anymore, more of a "I just don't want it" type of situation. I'm hesitant to say it comes naturally now, but it's mostly effortless. Thinking back to most of the things I used to eat they all seem pretty unappealing, make no mistake I could still eat it, and it would probably be good, but I just don't care for it like I used to. I'm down 20lbs and feeling great.

Funny story, my wife ate what I ate last night. A bacon-wrapped filet, and a large portion of grilled zucchini, carrots, and onions. Cooked in grass-fed butter. 2 hours later she was complaining that she was starving more now than she was before dinner. I politely explained that's because her body was accustomed to running on processed carbs and sugars. There's no reason that meal shouldn't provide the energy required to run the human body. I was fine, she was about to eat the doors off the kitchen pantry. Been there honey, it gets easier. 🤣
