Meat Week - day 3 recap

Ate 1 lb of pulled pork, finally finishing the roast. Made brisket, ate about a pound of that. Wasn't hungry for the rest of the day. Weight this morning was 204 lb, maybe 204.5 lb (I have an analog scale).

I'm starting to have a very serious problem getting motivated to eat. I can feel all the gut sensations of hunger, all the data from my vagus nerve tells me that my stomach is quite empty. When I start to think about eating, though, I'm nearly repulsed at the thought, regardless of what I think about eating, even things I was craving just yesterday. I started having this hungry/not-hungry feeling on day 2, and it's very strong right now. In a sense, this is an improvement over simply fasting. Every time I've attempted to fast for an entire day (for a variety of reasons), I've been overcome by hunger and broken the fast by evening. I have the sense that I could succeed today -- at least right this moment -- and it would be much less of a hardship. This is weird.
