Exactly. What I do sometimes when I eat lean meat, like pork, I add butter on the plate, add a bit with each bite and it slightly melts, delicious.

I wouldn't be too stuck on grass fed or not. Supposedly, grass fed is higher in vitamin A and E, Omega 3, etc. I'd say you get enough of that now anyways on a carnivore diet. I'd still use fish oil supplements, cook in coconut/avocado oil, etc. I do an occasional bison or venison but mostly grain fed beef. It's like with the salt, so long as it is iodized, I don't care where it comes from. If money is not an issue, then yeah, eat all the fancy stuff, but otherwise I would not give it another thought. We're already eating healthier, much healthier than the SAD.

Welcome! Make yourself at home, we're in this together.

Me neither, no metal, ever. If it's really bad a little dish soap cannot hurt the seasoning, that is a myth. I season mine with avocado oil.

Life changer. Big time.

That plastic scraper is the key. On top of that I use a small dish brush, and always use paper towels to wipe it dry.

According to the youngsters, it means something very naughty. In our circle it's a word play on meeting other people who participate in the carnivore life style. That is my assumption. I do not use the term as my son would side-eye me for it lol.

Maybe an electrolyte drink, add it in your routine for a couple of days. Just a few days, and see what happens.

Doctor? What is that?

Most supplements can, really. Including vitamin K or C. Supplementation should always be approach with care. Start low doses. Good point.

And, understand that the weight you lost in that period of time is already extraordinary. Pat yourself on the back and do not stress about plateaus. Losing weight is stressful on the body and it needs a break sometimes. Slow and steady is always the best choice. You've never been able to achieve this on carbs. It took a lifetime to get fat, and it will take a while to re-program those fat-cells, hormones, gut bacteria, etc.

Look but don't touch lol

The infamous treadmill...

For my self I see it in a similar way, not really a craving but a memory of it. It has less power over you, there is not so much a physical attraction to the former food, but a fond memory of all the dopamine, the overwhelming tastes we allowed ourselves to get used to.

Those first few weeks... there's a lot going on. Just plow through it, minding your electrolytes of course. Learn from every single meal.

I workout in a weekly cycle. Daily is not a must, as muscle growth happens when you recover. I have a set amount of workout I want to have done but allow at least three rest days in between. I also make sure I split my exercises, push, pull, legs split. A workout lasts no longer than 40 minutes, it needn't last any longer. Keep it simple. I do slow moving heavy weight lifting, in a controlled manner. The key is knowing what you want. Don't do everything together, cardio or HIIT, if that is what you want, pick a different day for that. You workout in a way, that you can do eat forever, much like your diet. Jumping jacks and burpees are all fine but they are just a risky form of cardio. A slow jog/brisk walk will do the same for cardiovascular health. No need to get injured over cardio. Keep it simple and you'll be able to do it for years. You really only need 4 compound exercises per workout, from there only consistency matters.

Oh yes...

Looks good! Also, a reminder to use that thread-mill you bought. You're welcome.

Statements like that just help me see who is bought and who isn't. This also goes for politics, education, archeology, science, etc. The list goes on and on. I do not know who that guy is either, probably because over the years I've chosen my sources carefully. No mainstream news, no Twitter, no Tiktok. It's not that I dislike having my mind changed, but the fact is, my mind has already changed. The fact is that we get bombarded with lies, so much so, that we are not willing to believe anything anymore, thus killing our ability to think for ourselves, even if initially, we do not fall for the lies. The end result is much the same.

Carb hunger is more aggressive, obvious, in your face, like a Karen. Carnivore hunger is like a stalker, a killer in the night, it sneaks up on you. Consider fat intake, and mind your electrolytes, with regards to feeling empty.

6.45 Am... I am sipping on some coffee (with butter) WITH STEVIA! I failed again!

Welcome, also, to you @Laura

I'm afraid without my stevia...the last bastion of sweetness in my life. Silly isn't it?

Coffee with butter and stevia. Eventually getting rid of the stevia, then getting rid of the caffeine, that step is scary to me lol.

Your sins are forgiven. I've had Gyros in the Kent area, also a festival, maybe the same, some 10 years back or so? That was good Gyros and I've been to Greece.
