    When I had covid everything smelled like diesel, including fresh baked cookies. Before that, I could not smell for 5 months. Back to normal now.

    Welcome!

    Welcome. I think skepticism is what got most of us into the carnivore diet. You're at the right place.

    It all started with that damn apple. It shows how bad fruit really is, they should have eaten the snake!

    That awareness becomes a blessing. With my auto-immune disease I quickly figured out what some food did to me. You start looking at food differently, because you have a direct, almost immediate response to it. While normal folk can eat it for years before the health consequences take their toll. Type 2 diabetes, for instance.

    I know that channel. I just can't. After yardwork or working out I need that shower. Again, cold(er) water, natural soap (I use goatmilk soap or Bonner's) and keep the showers short. As for the teeth, I find much more validity in that, but again you can use Boca, a fluoride free paste with nano-Hydroxyapatite, a game changer. Also for skin and teeth and overall health I take Iodine.

    It's good for blood circulation too. A good mental exercise if it's really cold. Definitely helps with sore muscles and aches, done it for years. Since carnivore I've upped the temperature a bit, with low body fat percentage it got too cold and it's not needed anymore since inflammation is but a rare thing now. But I did notice improvement on my skin. Hot showers stretches the skin, strips away that oily layer that protects your skin. It may lead to inflammation, dryness, even acne, as your skin attempts to replenish those protective oils. So like with the carnivore diet, avoiding is always better than treating. If you find that challenging, start with a cold rinse at the end, and keep the showers short.

    Herring, lots of herring!

    I get it. There's so much conflicting information out there. The internet is a double edged sword. Sometimes I read a crappy book, and I see praising reviews, or vice versa. You've got a rash on your leg, and you find out on WebMD you've got but days to live. We're really on our own. A lot of the information is not vetted, and especially when it comes to nutritional science, it is very hard to pin down. A lot of people do not report accurately what they eat, or measure it wrong, etc. And with this partial information they go and display their findings on Reddit. I think what the consensus on this particular forum is, that fat is a friend. Fat is fuel. But again, these are opinions, no more, no less.

    Also this. We'll be cheerleaders for anyone who seeks improvement. I think some perspectives have been offered to provide depth in such endeavors.

    Running also makes you eat more. Coming from an ex-runner. My former boss, I knew him for six years. He was overweight. He was really tough on himself and did cardio every day for an hour and a half on the treadmill. Over the six years he gained even more weight. Every. Single. Day. The food was more powerful than these huge amount of cardio sessions on a daily basis for years. And I am thinking, what is more boring than eating meat everyday? Doing cardio everyday. Coming from someone who's been working out for 15/20 years.

    This. When I hit my "Perfect" weight, boom, eating like normal. But I had days and 1000 calories were enough. But calories are bullshit when on carnivore, because on a SAD you really count your carbs, rather than calories.
  13. Orweller
    Not to worry.
  14. Orweller
    Wash and shower with cold water, your skin won't need lotion. If that does not sound pleasant, try tallow balm.
  15. Orweller
    Have eaten plenty of raw meat (never pork or chicken). Not as of late. Define "better".
  16. Orweller
    Lean meat will be a mistake. Protein adds more weight than fatty cuts because of gluconeogenesis. People that don't lose weight on carnivore eat too much protein.
  17. Orweller
    New York Post lol. Enough said.
  18. Orweller
    Most people rather die in comfort, that live with challenge. An easy life, versus the strength to endure a hard one. To each their own, I'm sure.
  19. Orweller
    I also refrain from drinking distilled water. Will have to research if my beliefs are correct on this.
  20. Orweller
    People say they're a foodie. But they'll never say that they're a druggie.
  21. Orweller
    Consider this, food may not be boring if you do not consider it a form of entertainment. And this is how we are conditioned to see food. The drink is tricky. Maybe tapering down slowly? I've heard stopping cold turkey is not a good thing to begin with. The reducing stress and focus on sleep is an excellent strategy. Could you not choose a day where you just fry up some burger paddies so you can microwave them later? To minimize boredom, perhaps some different spices on each? Lastly, being healthy is boring. Being unhealthy and addicted is not. Perhaps this statement shifts that view on what boring really is. Change the way you look at things, and you may be able to deal with boring.

    It's like telling someone how to raise their kids. You know they are terrible, but it isn't not on the table for discussion. Hey, you tried to help, that is commendable.
  23. Orweller
    Absolutely. Even if the chances are a slow as getting hit by lightning... when you do get it, it ain't pretty. I recall when I had food poisoning back in 2018. Also known as Poopalooza 2018. Never again. The bathroom was a crime scene. It was pure fallout. I saw myself die a few times. I had to exorcise that room when it was all said and done.
  24. Orweller
    Yeah this is quite the challenge. Beef jerky, dried sausage, a keto-bar, in real emergencies. Boiled eggs, burger paddies when you have a fridge available.
  25. Orweller
    To most people, that may be so. Of course we know this not to be true. It's when one identifies oneself with one's opinion. We tend to wrap our identity around what we do.
