ooh, Trader Joe’s Organic Grass Fed hamburger. I love Trader Joe’s, but have a problem with their hamburger:

Dr. Stephen Phinney, in part one, says he eats 200g of fat per day. That’s almost half a pound. Do any of his videos how what and how much of it he eats to achieve that?

Some “good” fats here: sausage, bacon, eggs, butter, olive oil, avocados, salmon, beef, ham, nuts, seeds, heavy cream, yoghurt.

Looks kind of hard for me to stay below 100g of protein.

I wonder if eating egg yolks (like 5) with one whole egg would help? You’re eliminating half the protein and keeping all of the fat.

So there’s about 4.5g fat in a yolk and 2.5g protein. In the white, there’s almost no fat and 3.5g protein.

so 5 yolks would be 22.5g fat and 12.5g protein. Plus the whole egg is another 5g protein. Cook it in butter and you’ve got another 11.5g fat. Add some heavy whipping cream to the mix (2 TBSP = 12g fat and .3 protein).

So, if my math is right, that’s about 46g fat and about 20g protein. (I added 2g to account for the slight bit in the yolk and the cream)

With spices and veggies, that’s breakfast.
