Your past comments seemed to imply that you were eating ground beef and some additional fat and little else.  Please excuse me if I am getting this wrong and missed something along the way.

I do not have a detailed answer for you at this time... just racking my brain for answers here.

There was a piece on Mark Sissons blog about ZC.  Much of it does not apply to you but there were some interesting comments from active ZC'ers

Another thing that comes to mind is some form of colon cleanse, like psyllium husk with bentonite Clay.  Small quantities over time.  "Sonne's" products are available almost everywhere -- #7 (Bentonite) and #9 (Psyllium)
