I have no experience with your situation, so please ignore this if it sounds too stupid!
Since forcing yourself to eat has not worked, have you considered fasting until until you really want to eat RPD foods?
It would seem extremely unusual for a relatively healthy animal to just stop eating until it dies, so it would make sense for your body to want to eat eventually!
Did you take the probiotics you mentioned earlier? I found some that say they are in an acid resistant capsule to get through the stomach intact, and then break down in the intestines.
Have you stopped breast feeding yet? This would seem to be a good idea - you could pre-chew food for your baby to give yourself a break (I used to chew up carrots for my kids when they were babies).
How are you getting on now with eating raw animal fat & offal?
Another option is for you to go back to eating foods that you prefer, possibly with a healthier twist.
What if you ate more nutritious cooked high-carb paleo-like foods - yams, pumpkin, kumara, potatoes, turnips, swedes, carrots etc - would that be a compromise that might work for you?
I suppose I don't love eating RAF and RVF compared to how I loved eating ice cream and cake, but its worth it to be healthy, alert and energetic by chomping on bits of fatty meat & offal!
Yes, it is definitely worth the health improvements! I am surprised how many problems of mine are already gone, after just a short time of eating better.
I eat a little one side sometimes, but buying a variety of fresh produce and meats would really cost a lot more and likely exceed our budget.
I do try to mix my boiled sweet potato with veggies for variety, add seasonings or even try to do a curry sauce with coconut milk, but often I don't have the time for that because of my son and I decide to just eat whatever goes fast, to save myself the hassle of trying to keep him from taking the place apart while preparing food.
I did not actually fast, because I tend to get really jittery or even dizzy and pass out (used to deal with hypoglycemia a lot), but I ate a very low amount of calories for a while, and just gradually started increasing, hoping my body will take the opportunity to gain now.
I was once told that often diets fail because the body is trying to store more fat, thinking it is a time of hunger, and when the dieter starts eating normally again you gain a whole lot at once...hoping for that
My son does eat some solids now, not a whole lot but he snacks on things here and there. I will likely be breastfeeding until I am done having children, since I am doing child led weaning, just like in nature.
It does not drain me though, and it only burns 500 additional calories a day that is evened out by an increase in appetite. I had the same weight problems before breastfeeding, only in pregnancy I gained a little weight , and was happy with 51kg at 165cm. It is still thin, but okay for me. I kept on weight, even while breastfeeding every 1-2hrs then, when I was still eating sad foods. Since going all paleo I started dropping weight.
I could not re-introduce some foods even if I wanted to. I have bad reactions to pretty much all non Paleo foods now, aside from coffee, raw cheese and a few legumes, which I still don't consume.
Some raw animal products I have problems with. Often wild caught fish gives me a really sore, swollen throat, yet farm fish does not, cooked fish is better too.
I don't have a problem with raw meat, it does not taste great, and I don't love the fatty stuff, but I can get it down. I haven't gotten into aged meat yet though, and I season it a little.
