Great story. Congrats on the victory.
Big picture for me, it is just crazy to me at times how with all the advances in modern medicine we find the answer in a ribeye.

Y’all are just great. Thanks for your input, but mainly, thanks for speaking this language! It really is like that, isn’t it? Like you’ve gone to a different country where you don’t eat what the natives eat? You don’t talk like they talk (when it comes to food, which is a lot of the time), don’t go where they go (to the pasta restaurants or fill-in-the-blank-SAD-restaurant). I live parenthetically to the rest of the world. Add to that that I’m a woman of faith, and boy, I live a very different life! BUT- it’s so, so good. No complaints. Like the company shirts say, “Life is good.”

Hi Cathy,
I'm a dirty carnivore. I haven't had any major health problems, but now understand where all those tummy aches were coming from. I occasionally eat some broccoli, pickles and nuts. Lately I have been try to stick to meat and eggs as I went on a several month SAD bender over the winter.
When people question my food choices I try to say something like, I have learned that I don't feel well when I eat XYZ. Kinda hard to continue to pressure someone to eat something that makes them unwell.
My why is to thrive mentally and physically till I die. I have seen too many older women just breathing and eating, but not actually living for decades before they die. I'd love to avoid that.

I love it, Scott!
I haven’t lost weight on carnivore at all, though I could stand to lose 20 lbs. No idea why it’s this way with me, but the other perks are there for sure: no more inflammation, no more out-of-control cravings, and yes, I’m saving a ton of money eating this way.

Thank you for your encouragement, everyone. I like the way you said this, Scott: “everyone becomes a physician, dietician, or nutritionist on the spot,” as they munch their toxic food.
My aunt just, shall we say, covertly, called me out on eating so many eggs because they are “high cholesterol.” This after she got dx’d with onset Alzheimer’s. It’s heartbreaking and nerve wracking at the same time that they believe what they do.
Thing is, I don’t go around correcting others on their food choices. I wonder why they’re so comfortable telling us carnivores what they think? I dunno. I don’t worry about their verbal clamor as much as I used to, but it always takes me some time to throw off their comments.
