so i feel pretty lousy after i eat. i do eat a big carnivore meal, with one piece of fruit (under 50 grams of carbs). so my insulin is ok. but the post food coma is too much. this causes me to drink alcohol, as i have a difficult time sitting with discomfort.

Then eliminate that which may be causing this reaction…fruit. It’s not so much the carb but what the carb does to you. Fruit contains fructose. Fructose is not like most sugars because it goes directly to your liver where it is metabolized quicker. Fructose is not used to feed cells directly. It is taken up by the liver, where it is broken down, and stored or used much like glucose.

You might also try eating smaller meals instead of so much at once. Break them up throughout the day. I used to eat just one meal a day and it would be very large but I’d be worthless afterwards.

yeah geezy i feel pretty worthless after doing omad. i'm gonna try 2mad and see how i fair. although i really don't like eating meat more than once a day but i can try eggs for my second meal. i do ok with eggs and maybe a small amount of cheese on top.
