Day 9

 So to confirm an issue with cheese I did a ver specific experiment last night. I had cheese with my last meal, a different kind. Today no weight loss.


So yesterday I ate 12oz of steak for lunch with a little carnivore hollandaise (eggs and butter). 

Then for dinner I had 3 eggs, a little turkey for extra flavor, and a little whole milk mozzarella cooke in butter.

I put this in My Fitness Pal. I ate 1718 calories. I lost zero weight. For me this completely debunks the calories in calories out dogma. My TDEE is 3000 calories a day. I cut 1300 calories off my TDEE I should have lost half a pound or so. Moreover I am convinced now that cheese pauses my weightloss. 


I do not know what about cheese does this but clearly my body takes issue with something in cheese. There are several yeasts, molds, and bacteria in cheese. One of them must be to blame for the pause in weight loss. Anecdotal ... but it is still there.


To top that off my blood pressure cuff died this morning so I need new batteries for it putting a gap in my data. I hate data gaps. 


The journey continues.
