Early, always. I'd keep the workouts short, about 30 minutes. Every other day. That's more than enough. And never do cardio for weight-loss, do it for heart health, you cannot outrun a diet. So and hour and a half per week is more than enough. That's just my view on it and has worked for me for 15 yrs now.

Scrambled eggs with tuna, a bit of shredded cheese, seasoned with salt. pepper, and chili powder.

I've actually started to increase the volume of meals, and add 10 to 20 grams of carbs a day. My eating only when hungry led me to losing a bit too much weight. I know, that's a good problem to have. But that's going to be my approach, at least for a while.

The power of an open mind...

Who knows, your doctor maybe frying up some pork chops as we speak!

It's a relief isn't it? It's why I am more willing to deal with a nurse practitioner than a doctor. They have more time to listen and are less indoctrinated.

On the carnivore diet we do get enough protein to build muscle, it's much less of a factor to consider. Building mass, that is going to be a bit more challenging.

I believe this to be absolutely true. I eat at my own schedule. At dinner time at the table, this means I mostly don't eat. I'll just do all the talking. Makes you realize the social significance of eating together.

Good point. Most of us got here because we were lied to, to begin with.

Likewise, and welcome.

Yes, it's totally normal to still get hungry signals, it's an increase of the ghrelin hormone. Then Leptin is released to signal satiation, regulating food intake and the energy expenditure. And since we expend energy differently, this may be experienced slightly different when being fat adapted. At least, that is my understanding. And yes, carnivore alone will get you into IF in some sort of fashion since we are full for longer.

Some flavors of Prime has been taken from the shelves in some EU countries. The difference between LMNT and Prime is, that Prime is garbage. LMNT is really not that bad of a product, but the problem is, their marketing was dishonest, and that is where Prime and LMNT and a host of other companies are very similar.

It's a pleasant and quick read. One of the books that started my journey.

I've had the same. A pound of meat is good for 6 hrs not eating. I think we need to look at our progress and the reason why. If your goal is losing weight then good, eat what your body asks for and leave it be. Do you feel weak? Are you getting too thin? Feeling tired? Eat more. We have to listen to our bodies more than we need to cinsider calories. Myself am in a position that I don't want to lose any more weight. Weight loss was never my goal. But I lost quite a percentage of body fat. And I don't want to look like I am doing meth. Fortunately I have muscle mass, and I don't feel weak or tired. I can tell that the weight I have lost was fat and "water". It really shows how nutritious meat can be. Long story short, I do eat only when hungry, but I do add butter, or an extra egg to meals now.
