NOTE:I had a tiny bit of a scare yesterday and thought depression was creeping back into my life. But I now think it was just prozac withdrawals. Read here.
When I got up, I had my usual chug jug of hot water.
At 2:15pm, I cooked two hamburger patties and some sliced beef. Then shortly after I started eating, I felt odd and just stopped. I had to take my mother out for blood work and decided to just go ahead and to that and finish eating later.
At 4:30pm, I reheated the meal from above and added some chicken breast. I think I ate it all (yesterday was a complete fog for me). Then I just stayed on the couch and slept on and off for the fest of the night.
At 12:15, I got hungry, but not hungry. I was just a mess. All I knew is that I was sticking to meat, so I heated up some of the meat I cooked the day before. It was hard getting it down because I was so down and out. But I managed to eat a decent amount. Then I went back to bed. I woke up feeling world’s better today. Had I strayed from the meat, I know my world would have collapsed.
Food that entered my mouth yesterday: sliced beef, ground beef, pork tenderloin, bacon, kielbasa sausage, chicken and lots of delicious water.
IMPORTANT – My doctor totally approves of this!!! See this vlog to see how my appointment went!

Happy Thursday!
A funny (like not funny at all) thing happened to me yesterday. I woke up not feeling good. Woke up in a fog. It got worse as the day went along, then the night was horrid. I felt like I was falling into a depression. This had me extremely worried because I have been over 3 months now with not a hint of depression kicking in. And I’ve been off my Prozac for a month.
Then at night, I started getting constant head zingers (you can feel that when coming off anti-depressants) and I could not walk straight. I looked it up, and it seems that it can take weeks for Prozac to completely get out of my system. So I felt much better just knowing that I was probably still going through withdrawals. I just hope I can totally stay OFF Prozac. I’ll just give it more time and will see how this all plays out.
Today, I woke up feeling great. I have been feeling so good since eating just meat, and to have a bad day like yesterday was killing me. All I did was worry that my awesome world was falling apart. But today it is back to good. So I am going to just keep doing what I’m doing because yesterday was not depression. For me, depression is not something that kicks in for one day only. I would normally be in that dread and doom phase for at least two weeks. I think I just went through the last bit of withdrawal. But it was scary, just the same.
Today, I hope to sew and get some videos up! My head is crystal clear! I was not able to record anything yesterday at all. I basically went to bed at 4pm and stayed there.
There may be instructions for some of these crafts, not sure. If you want to hunt down instructions, click on the image source link. You may have to keep clicking through until you find the source for instructions.

NOTE:I get messages asking me why I post these types of recipes while I’m following a zero carb animal kingdom only food plan. My answer is because I’m following ZC, but I bet you’re not! Just because I eat a certain way does not mean I have to limit myself to sharing only meat recipes. I’m not the carb police! lol
Brownies (homemade or store bought)
1 oz cream cheese, softened
1 roll (16.5 oz) Pillsbury chocolate chip cookie dough
Darlene’s Tips:You could use the Little Debbie (or store brand) brownies since those are very gooey and would easily roll into a ball. You can use any brand of cookie dough and sugar cookies would work too.
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1: Crumble the brownies (about 1 cup, packed) and stir in cream cheese until mixed well. Roll mixture into 8 balls.
Step 2: Heat oven to 350°F. Line extra-large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. Cut cookie dough into 16 slices. Flatten slices, and form 2 slices of cookie dough around 1 brownie ball, completely sealing edges of dough and forming into ball. Place on cookie sheet, pressing down slightly. Repeat for remaining cookies, placing at least 2 inches apart on cookie sheet.
Step 3: Bake 17 to 20 minutes or until cookies are golden brown. Cool on cookie sheet 10 minutes; remove to cooling rack to cool completely.
When I got up, I had my usual chug jug of hot water.
At 3:30pm, I felt like eating only cut up food (new thing lately). I cut up and cooked beef, pork, kielbasa sausage, bacon ends and added ground beef. I ate more than half of what you see on the plate.
At 7:30pm, I made myself a big ass hamburger patty (close to one pound) along with a side of 6 eggs. I ate almost every bit of that. But I put pepper on it and got a very sour tummy after. Please read the note below.
NOTE:I’ve been testing pepper off and on. I really LOVE pepper on haddock and on eggs, but I notice that every time I use it, I get a sour stomach after. And it triggers acid reflux. That, in turn, makes me nauseous. It amazes me that something like a sprinkle of pepper can cause so much discomfort. When I think of all the things I’ve eaten my whole life that were destroying me, it blows my mind!

Happy hump day everyone!
Last night, I started my newest Upcycled Fashion! I’ll be working on it over a few days, so you can expect it some time this week. The poll is closed and the Springtime Outfit won! Stay tuned to see what I come up with!
I unleashed a new mini series called Fat Chat and so far, I think the feedback is good! I know that I will for sure ruffle feathers with those chats, but hey, ruffles feathers get views, so that works for me!
