I did until the wife said “NO CAVEMAN SHIT!”. Funny how she gave me the knife I use to filet fish lol.

Tell her you’re trying to learn Southeast Asian culture by using your hands to eat. Lol

We are Nepali, so when we eat typical Nepali/Indian dishes we use our hands. But she finds it ridiculous when I use my hands to eat salad or just picking up big piece of meat and take bites out of it vs cutting it LOL.
Sad. I’m part Filipino and there’s just something about eating with your hands at times that makes the meal twice as good. Lol
Hahaha, I’m super organized myself, so I couldn’t say man. I’ve learned in terms of the house “everything should have a home” and it just declutters everything. We are sorta minimalists but not really lol.
That is one long ass fridge though, never seen that!
It’s mainly full of out of date pickles and sauces.

NOTES
Back feels really good now! I think I know how to build in a deload for a more advanced lifter for double progression programs. After every time hitting the top reps (5x3-5, 4x6-8) before upping the weights, deload for that particular lift for one week and then build up again. This auto-regulates specific movements at specific times because you are not going to be able to add reps/weight week after week to all movements at the same time.

I’m working on a chuck roast and potatoes this week. I’m decreasing my chicken consumption to re-test my theory that it causes my blood cholesterol to increase, but I miss the low calorie, high protein combination. I struggle with constant hunger and six ounces of chicken is only 180 calories compared to about 340 calories for the roast. I can eat more food with the chicken, which is helpful.

Is that the lamb stew you made? I make a beef stew that both the wife and I love.

Yup lamb, onions, peppers, carrots, celery, potatoes, mushroom broth, spices and some rice flour at the end to thicken it up. Hits the spot!
@Frank_C add some more fats like avocados and stuff. You’ll stay full. I have a salad I make which is shrimp, spinach, purple cabbage, avocado, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, apples. The avocado when you mix it around is almost like a thicker dressing. Super good and filling!

I tend to go the other way. Less fat means more grams of food. I actually find carbs to be the most filling. Meat and veggies? Nah. Meat and potatoes? That hits the spot and sticks with me for a bit.
I just downed my “early lunch” of 1 cup of jasmine rice, 6 oz of chicken, 1 serving of tri-blend beans, avocado salsa, and 6 oz mixed veggies. It’s around 700 calories and I’m hoping it’ll get me to my “late lunch” after I work out this afternoon.
Late lunch is the same veggies, 6 oz of roast, and 300 g of the potatoes I cooked with the roast. Don’t ask me why I measure some things in ounces and others in grams. I just do. 
Same here. I can keep eating meats and fats. It’s easy to eat 12 eggs or a couple pounds of meat at once, but once I start into oatmeal or rice or potatoes, I get fuller faster.

I had a 900 calorie breakfast yesterday like it was nothin’. Eggs, roast, veggies, and shredded cheese.
This morning proved that I need protein and carbs, though. I had oatmeal and a bagel with one scoop of protein and I was hungry faster than I should have been.

I read a book (hard to tell, I know), that proposed that people always get filled with protein, most people get filled with fat and not carbs, whereas for some, it’s the other way round
I’m just so used to not eating breakfast that I don’t. It’s 1 pm, I’ve walked 3 miles with the dog and I’m having my first meal of the day - boiled eggs and a protein shake. Then I’ll have salmon, avocado and pico de gallo with hot sauce on a couple tortillas a bit later.
