PB Keto - Octavo Día

PB Keto - Octavo Día

Although I had a good night of sleep, I had a very interesting morning with my emotions. I actually woke up feeling SOOO good, then... as I was writing my morning pages, things changed and a rollercoaster of emotions overwhelmed me. I'd like to say is about the change in my eating habits, but then again... I'm doing other things that would trigger such emotions, SOOOO can't blame it on just Keto lol However, I do believe that it IS a combination of everything and of course its partially because if it.
That being said, I feel way calmer to talk about breakfast... although I can't lie and I do feel so fragile and my heart open in such a way I haven't felt before ... in this lifetime.

So, I truly wasnt quite hungry, but I knew I had to eat something. Sometimes, when we release a lot, hunger can hide for a bit OR it can strike super duper hard; both have been the case for me. This time around, like I said, I wasnt hungry, but I knew I had to eat... crying takes A LOT of energy... plus, I finished dinner at 6.30pm yesterday and it was around 10is am. SOOOOOO.... I had been feeling and perhaps craving a chocolate peanut butter shake, which I made 🤗. I blended those ingredients with some sunflower microgreens (hehe I truly like these ones), I had a bit of celery on the same plate as them, so I though "fuck it! Why not!" 😉 (if you don't like celery, then that's definitely not a good idea for ya! Lol celery does have a strong taste, so even though I didn't use much of it, its taste was still a bit strong. BUT, I LOOVE celery, so I was totally fine with it 🙂) and put them in the little blender. 😏 I added, cinnamon, Pure Vanilla extract, Milk, 1/2 tbsp of coconut oil and almost 1/2 tbsp of MTC oil... quite delish! 😋
I also made a coconut yogurt bowl, using the yogurt I had just made (😍😍😍!!!), probably half of it, some peanut butter (who doesn't like PB?!?!), placed a combination of seeds and nuts on the top and sprinkled it with Hemp Seeds... ok... if you been wanting to make your own yogurt, I SOOOOOO recommend the recipe I used from the Minimalist Baker! Only 2 ingredients (Full Fat Coconut Milk + Probiotics = 👌👌😍😍😋😋), you just gotta be patient and wait the time it takes for your perfect yogurt!

I had such a FILLING breakfast, WAY later than normal, so lunch time came around and of course the hunger wasn't there. HOWEVER, one can NEVER say no to Matcha 😂🤣... soooo... I ordered a Matcha Latte Frapped with Almond Milk with no sugar AND... I learned from the past (😉🙌) and keep a bag of nuts and seeds with moi, as well as the little bottle of Brain Octane Oil 😊 which is what I used for my Frappe! Super duper refreshing! 🤗 and well... delish! 😜

D ordered a healthy breakfast from Healthy B cafe, here in Chiang Mai, which came with eggs, stir fry vegetables, avocado and salad. I had a couple bites and then he made me have more... 😆😂 lucky for him, I kinda like him... 🤣

Went grocery shopping to stock up on some things we really like hahaha 👇👇

Groceries 😜

Mmmmm nuts, chocolate and nut milk! 😍 they are TOTALLY our besties meow! 😜

Snack time! 😄 weird because I haven't had a snack since I started the Plant Based Keto, BUT also I haven't had lunch so... been wanting to have celery and peanut butter!! Mmmm 😍😍😍 so yummy!! And of course I added more things to it... more peanuts, pumpkin seeds and hemp seeds, and... only ate half and then I was done eating... 😂😂 what's going on?!? 🤣

Celery and PB

Remember I said I'm such a child and I need (not really but I do like having it A LOT!) To have my milk?! Lol weeellll 👇👇👇

Pistachio Milk & Fluffs

This happens when you are being lazy and just mix MCT oil with a spoon. On the contrary, THIS 👇👇 is when you are not being lazy and what your things fully mixed. 😜

Mixed Pistachio Milk & Fluffs

BIG difference no?
Moral of the story: Stop being lazy! 😂😂

Alright dinner time! 😋 ... just a question first ... for you sweet souls that have tried Keto before, do you even get hungry? D and I were talking about, actually have been talking about it, that perhaps it's a different kind of hunger, a more subtle kind, because to be completely honest, I haven't been hungry OR starving, which was SUPER common for me, before trying out Keto. 😱 I'd like to hear from some of you, to make sure it's not just me hahaha

Anyways, back to dinner. As we drove around, we saw this Indian Restaurant that had a sign with "vegan" on their sign outside of the premises... SOOOO... of course that was on my mind and we went there for dinner. Meow, here comes the difficult part of going to an Indian place as PB Keto: most Vegan dishes have lentils... NOPE, potatoes... NOPE, cheakpeas ... NOPE, carrots... NOPE... PLOP! 😂 I felt so EXTREMELY complicated and SUPER bad for the waiter, because things had to be modified for us... ok in particular for me, since I'm the vegan HAHAHAHA, BUT we made it happen. We opted for a dish that came with potatoes and cauliflower, but potatoes were taken out of the equation and it became a SOLID cauliflower dish and the other one just had okra. 😊

Lucky for us, peanuts were brought up to the table as we waited for dinner. 😏👇

Peanuts and Sauces

The one thing I told the sweet and patient waiter was that we were on a diet... lol and the face as I was telling him "No, can't have that either," was just... sad HAHAHAHA I truly felt bad for making an order so complicated. I guess next time, I'll say I have allergies that way I am not seen as annoying? 😂 that was D's idea, which it TOTALLY makes more sense no?

Ok, ready for the dinner pic? YUP! 👇

Indian Dinner ... yuuumssss

The one thing that looks like chicken is fish lol I kept calling it chicken, which OF COURSE wasn't for me. Quite delicious I gotta admit AND I didn't leave the restaurant with the feeling that I couldn't walk AT ALL, which is what normally happens from eating all the rice, the bread and potatoes! #Score 🙌🤗😍

That being said, there is some room for dessert, so I am about to have some of the Matcha Coconut Ice Cream with pistachios... no, hazelnuts, not pistachios.I guess that's where my mind's at!...I recently made! Bon appétit ! 😋😋
