My daughter made some jokes 😂
Mom, brother and herself got eggs on the toast, but dad got dried anchovies 😉 I am a pescatarian 🐟
This breakfast is actually nutritionally well balanced 😊
Today's Chia Chow Chat post (http://chiachow.net) which I don't typically share here but today is different...
Dec 24, 2023 - Christmas Eve. Also Sunday, pizza day. I have one more GF pizza in the freezer, which I will eat today, and then will start making my own crusts again. I have absolutely NO after-effects from the GF pizzas, and they are easy. I do OMaD (and IF of course) on Sundays, and my pain/inflammation remains under control. Today and tomorrow I will be doing things a little differently, tomorrow being Christmas, and there will be plenty of food at our family celebration! But my family is always willing to accommodate my (and Pete's, he's mostly heavily plant-based pescatarian) diets, making sure there are things we can also eat. And we bring stuff for ourselves as well. I will be making cookies that Pete & I can both eat, he will be taking his salmon salad for himself. And my plan, since OMaD won't be possible tomorrow, is to do a good fast after today's pizza, then tomorrow as small of an eating window as I can manage, avoiding, of course, the foods that cause me problems and the really carby ones. (I'm going to enjoy my family time and the grandkids and not track what I eat.) And then, as usual, I will go very low carb, super-carnivore for the next few days afterward. This is what always works for me when occasions like this arise.
How do you handle special occasions such as big holidays?
I had a few hours to spend in this put-and-take fishery 😊
At this point, it is pretty hard to find even a single trout 🤔
But I accomplished one of my today’s goals - catch one trout to feed myself who is a pescatarian - while enjoying walking and fishing (tenkara) in the rain 😉
Another busy week ahead, I spent about an hour and a half before the sunset on this local creek, just 6 min drive away from my home 😊
It was right after a pouring rain, the water was muddy. But fish were active where the water was slower. I kept a couple of survivor trout (from the spring stocking - put and take fishery) for my pescatarian meals😉
Sometimes you need to be daring and make up your own recipe based on a photo and description you got from someone. It was worth it, Crêpes with tuna and mustard are very tasty! 😋
I'm cutting this out of my diet, or have already cut it out:
Meat products
Dairy products
Products with oats in them
Un-pureed corn (corn on the cob, frozen corn, etc.), and maybe corn in general
Wheat based cereals
Fish, because vegan HOWEVER I have some thoughts I want to share about this with relation to digestion, as I effectively had to eat #pescatarian while in Japan... it was difficult.
Sure there's others but the above seem to cause me more trouble than worth; and or vegan
