@kenji i think the heavy protein and fat lunch would make a high sugar dinner “worse”. Protein effects can last 12 hours if I remember correctly.

Got a real craving for cinnamon rolls, tried to make them low fat - if anyone tries them let me know how they turn out!

Ingredients
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour (organic)
1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp. butter
1 1/2 tbsp. cinnamon
3 tbsp. granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla
3 tbsp. powdered sugar
1 tbsp. skim milk

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine flour and yogurt in a medium mixing bowl until ingredients are blended together and begin to form a sticky mixture.
3. Lay dough onto a floured surface and add additional flour to dough, as needed, while kneading. Knead dough for about 1 to 2 minutes.
4. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a rectangular shape.
5. Melt butter and add cinnamon, 1 tsp of vanilla and granulated sugar. Stir until combined and spread evenly over dough.
6. Roll dough into a long tube shape and cut into approximately 10 rolls.
7. Place rolls onto baking sheet and bake for about 15-17 minutes.
8. For glaze: combine powdered sugar, milk and 1 tsp of vanilla. Drizzle over cinnamon rolls

Hi all. I have decided to give the "Honey Diet" a go, though I will be using orange juice in place of honey as well as sugar, maple sugar, and maple syrup in coffee.

For some background, I ate primarily carnivore for roughly 4 years before coming across Peat and much of his work. I never had any issues as a carnivore, was a fairly lean individual and had plenty of energy but as many of you can imagine I was concerned about long term and thyroid/hormonal health. Cue "Peating" and with is as one can imagine I put on quite a bit of weight, likely from combining too much fat and/or protein with carb. As a result I have struggled a bit to now lose the fat around my mid section and have therefore decided to try out this "diet" as an approach to become lean again without going back to low carb.

My days will primarily look like this:
From waking-3pm

• Orange juice
• Coffee with sugar, maple syrup, maple sugar
• Other simple sugar fruits if they are in the house

I will then "fast" from 3-7

Dinner will be

• 1 lb lean lamb and or beef
• as much rice as I feel like
• 2 large glasses of milk
• maybe veg if its in the house

I will probably update with weight and overall feel each week or so. At the end of the experiment I may upload a pre/post. Any thoughts or advice is welcome!
