Oh Dear - Oh Dear!

My PUFA's are way too high!

My Poly UnSaturated Fatty Acids!

My ratio is as high as 30:1.

AND I am a Low Carber!

I love my Higher Fat Diet!

OMG!!

 I've messed up on the only two variables

that even count in any way, shape or form.

The Omega 3, and Omega 6 essential fatty acids.

And the ratio between the two.

I just didn't know better!

But now, I do!

And I am changing it!

One good choice at a time.

The first year, it was easy. 

Low Carb. Done.

Anything that was not a carb, was ok.

Sugar Free Candy. SF Yogurt.

Fifty eggs. Think "Cool Hand Luke," here.

Maybe a little alcohol. Zombie Brains. 

Anything I wanted. 

The next year, maybe a little refinement.

Add a little workout - CrossFit.

Maybe a little more focus on 

What my body wants, and needs.

And not always what I want.

Off the list for ever - for now:

Peanuts, SF Junk Food,

Vegatable Oils, Nutra Sweet,

Drinking. Most fruits. 

All Gluten.

These foods can stay, but in limited amounts.

They are no longer a mainstay.

Chicken. Salads. Some Dairy.

Splenda. 

Almond and coconut milk and flours.

And I have added:

Dark unsweetened cocoa, egg nog,

Salmon (Wild Alaskan), more peppers (fruits)

Grass Fed Beef and Dairy, some berries.

Add a little more n-6 to this list...

I do like some good bacon from time to time!

This is a pretty typical day for me.

1500 calories. 11 grams PUFA.

Total fat = 109 (like a boss)
Protein = 111 (bam)
Carbs = 19

I made the list -

So I can change the list!

YAY!

That's what's good about it!

Here's to better, more informed choices!
