CHEAT: only restrict animal proteins

1. Perogies

2. Ice Cream

3. Popcorn

Cheat meals in my diet are designed for three purposes:
1. They are still limited in animal proteins, so that constraint is still binding.
2. Serve to "trick" the body in not lowering its metabolism
3. Allow me to occasionally eat stuff I could not otherwise eat, which helps me stay on this diet.
