    • Eating good today. Smoked ribeye and eggs. 
    • That reminds me of one time I was on Quora and someone in the north east area of the states was boasting about their house dating back over 200 years to our colonial era.  A person from Great Britain though that was pretty special to have a house so young considering they were living in a house that was over 600 years old. 
    • That is impressive. It's strange thinking that it was up and running for around 900 years. Over here in the U.S. you have a company here and there that may have been around since the 1800's, but even that's rare.
    • So for reference, back at the beginning, any small amount of carbs in the form of sugar (milk, processed food, fruit) would make me crave more. I didn't have this problem with keto-friendly vegetables like broccoli, asparagus, brussel sprouts, etc. I started with keto and then transitioned into carnivore in May 2023. In October, my wife baked pumpkin bread and wanted me to just "taste" it to see what I thought (it was my mom's recipe). She knew I wouldn't have a whole slice, but I agreed to just one bite. I hadn't had sugar or grain in 5 months.  After taking a bite, something came over me that I never felt before. I can only imagine it is the same feeling that a crack/heroin addict feels, because all of a sudden I was STARVING, CRAVING, and JONESING for MORE. I did not give in, but I went downstairs and at a bunch of meat and cheese trying to calm the appetite. It was unreal, surreal feeling. It was addiction. I still had it even being 5 months off the carbs. Today, I am over the addiction. I don't have this reaction anymore whenever I have just a "taste" of something. So the moral of the story is, yes, it takes time. But in time, you will conquer and rise above those cravings from your former life.
