  7. It can. Obviously when people exercise vigorously, the body first uses up glycogen stores (if any) and then starts relying on ketone bodies. The more ketones your body uses for energy, the higher the ketosis readings will likely be. However, they may read higher than they actually are, because dehydration and the loss of electrolytes can affect these readings.

  10. It's literally the waiting game while your body adjusts to the new lifestyle. This usually takes 2 weeks to 2 months depending on what your diet was like before. The gas and bloat should eventually vanish and almost be a thing of the past. The number 2's will be less frequent overall. It seems odd and initially feels like constipation when you're used to going at least once or more each day. Those will get to the point where you'll span multiple days at a time before going again, because carnivore foods are almost 100% utilized and don't produce waste. You have to decide on your level of strictness and commit to it. Obviously wine and pasta have to go. But you may decide that a variety of seasonings are still okay for you, as well as olive oil, etc. And this is where you might want to even remove seasonings for a while, like 30, 60, or 90 days, just in case an antinutrient or plant defense chemical is behind whatever it is you're trying to heal. The carnivore diet makes a great tool as an elimination diet. Be strict for 90 days. Then, if you want to experiment, slowly and gradually add back in one thing at a time and test it for several days or weeks before adding the next thing back. This way you can isolate if your body reacts negatively to a particular food or food group.

  17. Welcome @lesliedean :) The Carnivore Diet by Dr. Baker is good. Even easier reading is Lies My Doctor Told Me by Dr. Ken Berry. His book isn't entirely carnivore oriented though. The Carnivore Code by Paul Saladino is chock full of excellent information, but it's very research/study heavy. Very deep. And welcome @LalaH Steak and Butter Gal definitely gets an honorary mention. So does Nutrition with Judy, MyZeroCarbLife (Kelly Hogan), and several doctors in this space have YouTube channels -> Ken Berry, Shawn Baker, Robert Kiltz, Anthony Chaffee, etc.

  19. That carnivore bread looks intriguing. I had my fish last night. Still slacking on the picture taking, lol.
  20. Pineapple on pizza was okay. Nothing special. I prefer spicy over sweet, so my typical pizza toppings were bacon, banana peppers, tomato, and feta cheese sprinkles, plus artichoke hearts of they had them. I admittedly miss pizza, but I just lack self-control. I WILL eat the whole pie, no matter how stuffed I am half way through it. I can't stop. If I were to treat myself to a pizza like meal again, it would be using the fat boy crust with almond flour, eggs, and shredded cheese. It was a decent replica, and I posted about it on here a couple years ago. Alternatively, I might do a search for a carnivore pizza crust, because carnivore recipes have come a long way in the last couple years.

  25. Stalls happen. Dr. Berry will often say that it doesn't qualify as an actual weight-loss plateau unless it's been 90 days will no change in weight. And then, we have to start looking at what we can do. Is there any carb creep? Did we start snacking or eating extra meals? Are we eating before bed? Have we been drinking or increased drinking artificially sweetened beverages? Have we almost but not quite reached our goal weight? (the last stretch is stubborn). Are we eating too lean and not enough fat? Can we start doing exercises, even if it's just squats or walking around the house? Can we cut out dairy? Can we try intermittent fast, OMAD, or extended fasting? Etc. And then beyond lifestyle changes, we could check for thyroid issues and check where your sex hormones happen to be.
  26. Likely ALL of that is (poor) diet related. High carb high sugar diet brought back the weight, made you insulin resistant, and is likely the cause in the rise of your triglycerides. Your eGFR indicates you are on the cusp of Stage 3a Chronic Kidney Disease. You had success before on a keto-carnivore diet, and you can have success again. I would make returning to and sticking to a proper human diet (carnivore or carnivore-centric keto/ketovore) your primary goal. Yes, cholesterol may go up. We do not worry about that. Trigs usually drop dramatically, but in my case they actually went up because of my kidney disease. I no longer recommend fenofibrate. I was on it for a year, and it tanked my kidneys, and I was deep into stage 5 renal failure for a while. I am currently reversing the damage done. If you remain on fenofibrate, get blood labs regularly and watch that creatinine and eGFR. If creatinine rises and eGFR comes down, get off if it immediately. Those trigs might go up during active weight loss but will eventually come down when you reach a goal weight and remain weight stable for several months. Omega-3 supplementation (fish oil) has been known to help lower trigs. I should have recognized the adverse effects of fenofibrates such as muscle twitching, late night leg cramps, and more, but I passed it off as an electrolyte imbalance due to my kidneys. I don't take fenofibrate nor any electrolytes anymore and I am fine. But you want to eat fatty meat, not lean meat. In the absence of carbs, fat is your energy, and your goal is to become fat adapted. The vegetables are optional. Either eliminate them altogether or only eat the low carb cruciferous kind while weight loss and healing are your goals. Later in life you can occasionally treat yourself/toy with a few more single-ingredient plants or fruits, but you have goals to reach first and one of them is getting the addiction to carbs and sweet tasting things under control. So my experience with fenofibrate ended in a nightmare. There is a part of me that wants to take the video down, but at the same time the explanation of what's happening in the body and everything else is still good information. Now I would do diet first. Today I only take meds for blood pressure and that's it. My LDL varies between 200 and 300 and I am not worried. My trigs were up to 2887 at their highest as you know from the video. Fenofribrate brought them down to about 555. And believe it or not, I just tested again 2 days ago after being off fenofibrate since last November (6 months now) and my trigs were 222, proving they would have come down on their own eventually (I do take fish oil). Yes, they say high trigs increases your "risk" of heart disease, but I am still alive and well. "Risk" is relative and so much goes into "risk". Most people who have high trigs eat candy, cakes, cookies, pies, chips, donuts, and other high carb junk foods. But that's not me. My trigs are high for an entirely different reason (most likely that I spill lipoprotein lipase in my urine due to my CKD). So were my trigs still a relative higher "risk". Maybe. I'm not so sure. Now with that said, I know people who take fenofibrate with no issues at all, such as my father. And I know doctors who take statins. For example, Dr. Ford Brewer takes a very low dose rosuvastatin, not for it's LDL lowering effects, but because it helps keep down inflammation. Sure there is a time and a place for these things, but I personally believe that most medications should be temporary, not lifelong, and one's goal is to get to the root cause and fix the issue, which is usually diet and nutrition.

  30. I wouldn't worry too much yet. Worry and stress will raise it even more, lol. But seriously, blood pressure is expected to go up as we age. In adolescents, the systolic pressure is expected to be between 112 and 128, and the diastolic pressure to be between 66 and 80. As you age this is likely to creep into the 130's (top number). This is the truth right here. The AHA recently lowered their guidelines and started saying under 120/80 is optimal. Before it was 140/90. Interestingly, the American Association of Family Physicians (AAFP) still sets 140/90 as the target for treating hypertension, and even states that lowering it to 135/85 saw no additional benefits. Hypertension - Clinical Practice...HypertensionAccess evidence-based guidelines for managing high blood pressure in adults, developed by the Eighth Joint National Committee (JNC-8) and endorsed by the AAFP.
  31. I finally have a raw milk connection around here and tried some. Absolutely loved it, and I didn't die, lol. But it is ridiculous and ironic that raw milk is beneficial yet illegal, and a recreational drug like marijuana which is harmful (in the manner in which most people use it) is legal.
  32. Indeed. When I am stuffed, I feel like taking a nap, not going out for another hunt, lol. And nothing quite like being hungry for some motivation to get out there and catch some food :)
