Bob

Bob: I went from 232, which is the most I've seen on the scale, and I think I was even more than that. That was April, and from April to November of 2023 is when I hit 175 and I've managed to maintain 175 for the last 12 months. Guest: And you guys are more active than me too. Geoff: Well, that can have a little bit to do with it but you don't have to be active to lose weight. That's a misnomer that's been spread throughout the industry - that to lose weight you got to eat less and move more. And that's all BS. You don't actually. You can eat more and move less and still lose weight. Bob: I lost most of my weight during the time I broke my ankle. So for those six weeks I was laid up on a recliner is actually the six weeks that I lost the most weight.

That's why they say "Holy Mackerel!" That's an even better ratio than salmon. I tried trout the other day and loved it. Salmon is alright, but I get flavor fatigue if I have too large of a slice. The trout on the other hand - I think I woofed down almost 2 pounds of it. It was delicious!

LDL is stored in adipose tissue. As you lose weight and dissolve fat, it gets released into the blood stream. Most people will see a rise in LDL while actively losing weight, especially if the weight loss is rapid. I wouldn't put too much stock into a lipid panel until about 6 months after weight has stabilized. Cholesterol and LDL aren't inherently bad by themselves. There are people who are LMHR's (lean mass hyper responders), that is, they eat a zero to low carb diet and are very lean individuals whose LDL skyrockets, but this is because energy needs around the body are being served by lipids/fats. You will want to check out Dave Feldman and Nick Norwitz work on "the lipid energy model" for a more detailed understanding of why you likely have nothing to worry about.

Yes it is. I too can relate to that you find yourself going through. I used to have a cheat meal and would completely fall off the wagon. I would reason, "well I blew it today, so I'll start again tomorrow (or Monday, or next week, etc)" - basically giving myself license to continue my splurge the rest of the day or so. Now I have a different mentality. If I find myself in a position where I might end up deviating from my preferred diet of pure carnivore, I no longer say "I'll start again tomorrow". Instead, I am starting again with my very next meal. And I am referring to the occasional fruit or vegetable, which usually only happens if I am a guest in someone's home who is showing me hospitality and I don't want to be rude. Although, I still refuse grains and refined sugar regardless.

I did at the beginning. My mouth, particularly where the bottom of the lips met the bottom of the gum line, was very sore. Certain things would "sting" when I ate or drank them, and my usual toothpaste at the time was suddenly painful to use. I also had a metallic taste that would never go away. This is sometimes referred to as "keto breath" and it a transition/adaptation symptom. It lasted for several weeks and then went away. For the time being, I had to switch toothpastes, and I went to a Tom's toothpaste product that was flouride-free. In time though, this corrected itself and now I no longer have the metallic breath/taste or the sensitivity, and I can brush again with any brand of toothpaste again.

The consensus in the carnivore community is.... minimal. Grass fed will have a slightly improved nutritional and omega-3 profile, but whether this makes it better than grain fed beef is questionable to some, negligible to others. Carnivore doctors and influencers will say if you can afford it, then buy it, because you are supporting your local farmer or regenerative agriculture and not throwing your money at the inhumane beef industry. BUT, if you can't afford it, don't sweat it. The grain fed stuff is going to still benefit you tremendously. Now with chicken and pork, this is a somewhat different story. The ruminants have their multi-chambered stomachs, and detox the plants and grains so that the bad stuff doesn't become part of their flesh. Chicken and pork on the other hand are monogastric animals, and so those that are grain fed will have a much higher omega-6 content, which we generally want to avoid (which is why we shun seed oils).

Excellent follow up interview. I played this at work yesterday while I grouted

There's some science to this. When you fast and exercise you are using more energy. More energy expenditure will increase appetite. Then when you do break your fast, you can't stop inhaling everything around you. With carnivore, this isn't usually a problem. We very much advocate eat until you are comfortably full. But then you bring up this... It does sound like the Alpha Gal Syndrome that you can get from a tick bite. But that usually only gives you a reaction to red meat. Poultry and fish are often still manageable. We have a member here who reports that he occasionally struggles with meat and eggs due to long-COVID symptoms. Maybe you are dealing with a similar issue? My only suggestion would be to make the food as palatable as you possibly can. Start with an all-natural whole foods approach, such as keto/ketvore. Take advantage of seasonings and sauces for now. And then slowly and gradually try to transition things to more of a strict carnivore diet. And when I say slow, I mean take your time. We're hoping you can train your palate to learn to love these foods again. Also try to think what specifically could be behind the acne. I would definitely swear off grains and refined sugars. And then beyond that try eliminating lectin-heavy foods for a while. If that doesn't work then switch it up and try eliminating oxylate heavy foods for a while, etc. Work your way through the common plant toxins to try and determine if one of these is your specific trigger.

I've just got one. It's a Char-Broil Infrared grill, 4-burners plus and extra one on the side where you can boil water or use a small griddle. The wife wants to get one that is a griddle across the entire surface. We have a smoker that the wife bought. It's electric though. But works well. You can add wood chips for flavor, etc.

I don't, but I remember a user named @Carburetor talked about his experience with it. His topic is here at this link...

I saw a 2-lb side of trout at Sam's Club over the weekend. It's a fatty fish like Salmon. So I bought it and made it last night and ate the entire thing. It was delicious. Probably better than the salmon because I think I would have flavor fatigued with the salmon after the 1st pound but with the trout I kept going till it was gone, lol.

Oh, okay. Maybe not then, lol. I thought it would be about health, nutrition, and food.

I've actually never limited these things, and I have never had a problem. I still salt to taste. I do, however, avoid products like LMNT because I take losartan potassium for blood pressure, and the added potassium in LMNT will put my potassium levels above the high range.

Good news for Tapatalk users. They have released a version for IPS 5.0 (that may still be buggy)... https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/tapatalksupport/tapatalk-for-ipboard-plugin-release-announcement-a-t4031-s150.html#p260661 I'll move forward with upgrading Carnivore Talk soon, and we will install Tapatalk for IPS 5 and test how well it works.

I will sometimes cut off a slice and eat it raw as I am preparing to cook a steak. I've done it just to try it. It wasn't bad. And believe it or not, I though raw liver was better than cooked liver. But I am not in the habit of eating raw meat at all. A nice "medium" is still my favorite style.
