Chicken Fried Steak!
Our local Walmart had a pack of thin ribeyes on clearance and I made this using them. I didn't even pound them thinner. Just fried it up in some bacon grease. Wonderful taste and there were no leftovers.

anyone ever eat a "raw" egg shell?
I'm that way with fish bones

Our dog gets a big dose of ground up eggshells in every batch of her homemade food. I found I can't grind them fine enough for human consumption even using a Vitamix. I added some to a bowl of ground beef once and it was TOO crunchy while eating 😂

Congratulations Peter, You found the magic answer to most of life's health problems. I bet your energy level was good during the fast also? I'm fasting every week now from 24 -72 hours or more. It helps the food and toilet paper bills also 😀

You won't hurt yourself with fasting. When you are truly hungry, you will eat again. I just ended a 60 hour this morning, only because i had meat and sausage in the fridge that was at its expo date. I was feeling great and could have went 2 more days for sure. I'm doing extended fasts every week now, Meatless Monday kind of thing or whenever I feel like it. After eggs, bacon and sausage this morning went for a walk with our dog and my energy was way above my normal level.

Hello All, I just joined the group
I really enjoy this way of eating and have no plans of changing. I wish more people would use it for the benefits it gives, but then our stores may run out of meat 🤔. I hope your friend can give it a go. It sure helps me. Nothing so far will cure the MS, but then you have to do whatever you can to feel your best. Good luck to him!

Just a thought, Before you go to the "Meatfest" party you may want to have something light like a hard boiled egg to get your guts primed and ready to go back into action

I like when the wife and I go food shopping now and we read labels on all the crap we used to buy. I check carbs first and then ingredients. Just about EVERYTHING seems to have canola oil listed in the first few ingredients. When I purged our kitchen of all the bad stuff I used our old canola oil to light our fire pit 😂

Sounds like it's going good so far for you. You'll know when it time to call it quits with fasting. When i first started Carnivore I was so pumped up that I was telling everyone they should try it and QUICKLY learned that people don't give a s##t about their own health and it's not my job to take care of them, so I just say nothing now. It's very hard sometimes when you know someone who you know could benefit form Carni but they don't want to hear it. We were at a family event recently and I was shocked at all the people there that are on statins and they were discussing HDL, LDL and things with their health, all with incorrect info. I just said there and said nothing. My tongue was ready to jump out of my mouth, LOL. If you would mention fasting they just look at you like you are crazy, so I now just keep that as MY secret weapon for health.

I drink water, Black decaf coffee (trying to quit all coffee), Herbal teas and maybe a flavored seltzer if we have any in the house. I will sometimes add a powdered collagen supp to the coffee.

A nice older book
I saw it at our local library and I always check the publish date trying to get the latest info. This one is pretty much "spot on" as to our lifestyle.

Hello All, I just joined the group
I worked in a silk screen printing plant for 30 years and was around a LOT of nasty chemicals everyday. That may be what gave me the bladder cancer. Who knows. As far as the MS, thats the biggest mystery in my life. I'd love to know the source of causing it. Well either way I got it and Carnivore helps it for sure. Nothing provable but you just know when you know.

I always say fasting is like magic. I normally sleep 8-9 hours but when in a fasted state 6 hours sleep is about all I need and then it's time to wakey-wakey. I would agree on the mental clarity also. if let's say I lose 5 lbs on a fast I will put back on 3 maybe 4 lbs over the next several days, But that is still a win. On the one I just ended I'm going to try for a bigger gain this time by really watching food intake. It would be so cool to lose 5 or 6 lbs and then keep that off forever

Cast Iron Pan VS Stainless Steel Pan
I'd get the dehydrator first. Homemade jerky is fantastic, and then you know what's in it also. if your oven goes low enough you can make jerky in that also. Sous Vide is fun but a bit of prep work and then the waiting for it to "cook". The newest Ninja cooker does sous vide and airfry Frm what I've seen. No idea what is costs though.

Hello All, I just joined the group
I'll watch the ZOOM meeting on Monday, right after Dr. Berry's live . I've never done anything with ZOOM before so that will be another skill to learn, LOL.

Thank You for letting me join. So glad I saw Geezy on Dave Macs YouTube channel which pointed me in this direction.

Hello All, I just joined the group
Scott: Thanks for the welcome to the group. My last MRI showed my optic nerves to be clear, which was good to hear but my entire spine and brain light up like a xmas tree with the contrast added. I will probably repeat a brain MRI this year before I go on Medicare in December. it's been a few years since I've had an MRI. I am currently on Copaxone and will probably be stopping that this year also. I feel it has never done anything for me personally. it only has about a 30% success rate in patients and after age 65-70 is has very little effect for most patients. I can't use anything stronger because of the cancer risk. 5 years ago I had bladder cancer, which is now clear (Thanks to carnivore?). MS fatigue is one feeling that just brings me down. That lack of energy when you feel okay otherwise is depressing. I do get tons of energy on a fast after 24 hours and for me it just keeps going until I decide to end the fast. Haven't noticed much difference between 72 vs 96. Thats around the "end zone" for me anyways. Next time I may go for 100 hour "century fast", never done one of those. Fasting is like magic to me. I can tell you that they get easier to extend as you do more and more of them. I usually start my fast on a Sunday night at 5pm and go as long as I can, but I also check before how much meat is in the fridge so nothing goes to waste. I've already had to put stuff in the freezer when fasts go super long, LOL. My wife and I both eat OMAD 90% of the time, but I've recently started going to a 36 hour fast once a week or more. There again fasting gets easier as you do them. I will say that after almost 4 years on carnivore right now I'm feeling in one of my better shapes and moods than anytime in the last 10 years. GOOD Luck with everything on you end. Wishing you all the best in your life, and as always "Eat your Meat!"

I've had extended fasts that end at 40 hours or less and others that just won't quit. Not sure why this happens but I'll take whatever I can out of the experience. To me fasting is like magic making your body do things that you wouldn't think are even possible. I just ended my latest at 87 hours and could have went till 96 but was feeling it a little so I ate a hard boiled egg with smoked salt just to get system working again. 8 lbs down this morning. Now at least 5 of those will go back on over the next week, but i'm still winning the race, LOL.

anyone a fan of Xylitol gum?
Yes around $10 a tube but a crown and root canal is now around $2K, so...................... Pay me now, or pay me later.

DO NOT LET ANY DOGS or CATS NEAR XYLITOL. IT WILL KILL THEM! After a lifetime of not taking care of my teeth and a mouth full of fillings and several crowns I started using xylitol and the results have been amazing for me. No more mouth pains and my teeth now look good. I've been using it for about 2 years. I make my own xylitol pieces (for lack of a better name) by filling a silicone candy mold with powdered xylitol and then placing in a 300'F oven for about 30 minutes. Let these cool slowly over about 24 hours and they will solidify into chunks that are easier to use. It helps to sprinkle a little powdered xylitol on the hot liquid xylitol to start the crystallization process. I switched my toothpaste to BOCA brand and that has been great also. My wife says her teeth become too sensitive while using the BOCA brand so she has went back to regular fluoride toothpaste.
