Sir Kensington's is good! I started ordering Primal Mayo online at Thrive Market.
I think the portion sizes look fine. You're definitely hitting your fat totals per day (fatty meats, mayo, avocado). You could stand to add a bit more starchy carb and that would also help with hunger.
AWESOME JOB!

Delicious! Let's find a way to add a little more carb. Maybe you can make a bunch of sweet potato hash and reheat for breakfast?

Good. Send me your totals when you calculate them. If you use my Fitness Pal, you can just log food there. Go to settings and make it to friends can see your diary and then you don't have to log in two places. If you'd rather stick to this format, that's fine, too.
The problem with plantain chips, is that it's hard to find them made with a good oil. The cheap oils are inflammatory, so keep those chips to a minimum.

Sunday April 19
AM: 3 oz grilled fish(all I had left), 3'oz baked sweet potato, and 1/2 cup fresh mango salsa
Lunch: was late- 3 rolled up turkey lunch meat with chopped spring salad and 3 dill pickles
Dinner: went over to a friends for an appetizer party. I had 5 wings- dry and deviled egg. I meant to eat before I went to party but spent day on a massive clean and lost track of time. Did not eat before I went. I drank Pierre water with splash of grapefruit while all others had martinis
Came home late and it's too late to eat. Oh well....
