45% of the world population is iodine deficient. Iodine regulates metabolism regulates bone growth regulates brain function I think you're on the safe side to just supplement. Better than eating fish out of a can, because you'll be supplementing on cadmium, mercury, and lead as well. Fresh seafood or an iodine supplement is not going to hurt, at all. We've been taught to be afraid of iodine, on our way to get some donuts. Funny actually.

Matthew 15:11: Jesus says that "it is not what goes into a person's mouth that defiles them, but what comes out of their mouth – this is what defiles them." “Stop calling defiled the things God has cleansed.” -Acts 10:15 It's really clear that we can eat what we want. Unless one is to ignore the new covenant. Or is of another religion of course, with all respect to Islam and Hindu. But the Kosher thing, yeah, just read the rest of the book bro, you're gonna be fine.

No more excuses haha. Let's get mean and lean!

Weekly is perfect. But see it as data, no more. The drive comes from having a system, a set of rules, that you promise to yourself. Track what works, toss out what doesn't. Even if it means sneaking in an oreo a day. Baby steps. Create the mindset first. Slowly eating meat becomes habitual. The addiction settles down.

And she was right. Saladino is anything but an expert. He was the wrong person to represent and advocate for Carnivore. Did a lot of damage. In fact he is still doing a lot of damage. An opportunist at best. He's selling watermelons now. Sugar crowd is bigger, more views, more likes, more money.

It most certainly wouldn't hurt. Especially when starting slow.

You could have a talk. Maybe discuss with her the location she keeps her "food". You obviously can't tell another adult what to eat, but you can make your needs clear. I am lucky that my wife always ate "healthy". You know, vegetables and fruits. But if she buys some chocolates, she keeps it in her office. When people fail within two weeks it's because of discipline and motivation. Motivation never stays around longer than that, and discipline soon makes its exit known as well. Instead add focus (make a list of rules, on paper). Create a system, routine. Make a blueprint. Track your progress, as in write down successful days, write down unsuccessful days. In days you'll find you can look back to something akin to a "bank statement" with regards to your eating habits.

I'd say cut dairy if you haven't already.

Isn't that (high) phosphorus not a result of your kidney condition?

We can get Mac's up here.

Today: Tricep Cable Push Downs Barbell Bench Press Barbell Shoulder Press Dumbbell Front Raises 5 min warm up/cooldown after, stretches, etc. Keeping it simple. Cardio will be cleaning the house and groceries. I'll die on that hill.

The best thing is, designate a space in the house for yourself and the most important thing, more important than the couch and the TV, an exercise space!

The infamous treadmill... the source of your everlasting guilt. The treadmill, perhaps in the garage like a neglected puppy...

Good to see everybody ready to move. I'll continue my regular exercise regiment, but yardwork will be an addition to this once again. A minimum of 3 exercise a week (push/pull/legs) A minimum of an hour of cardio a week (should be a bit more) Writing down progress (Motivation will only stick around for a few days)

Could be due to nursing. I'm sure hormonal stuff is going on on top of that. Once milk production stops, that is when I would be worried, then again, I have never produced milk, so I was never worried haha.

The best house is mine. Preferably with a steak in it.

Weight as in fat? muscle? water? I'd wait after nursing. Her body could hold on to "weight" to support milk production.

I would choose a cup of coffee over that.

I appreciate your contributions on here, please don't let it discourage you from posting. Argue the point, not the person, my father used to say. I always admire anyone who makes things from scratch, as I am but a knuckle-dragger when it comes to cooking.

Because they used salt. There was salt before the luxury grocery store. Use salt to taste, it ain't that serious. Keep it simple. If you don't prefer salt, try it without.

Fresh as in, not frozen.

I think you all can be a bit nicer. Just a friendly suggestion. I've had nice interaction with you, but also with @Geezy. He's been very helpful. Sometimes a step back is good, and ease things up. We are all here to get better and I understand we are emotionally attached to what our findings are.

I think it's a personal preference, no more, no less. I do agree, nobody needs deodorant. But once you start using it, it's become habitual.

I do not possess such patience.
