Well yesterday we had a pool party. In fact, we've had pool parties every evening this week because it has been absolutely ROASTING outside. Afterwards, my kids and their friends wanted to go to Mexican. I was just gonna throw a steak on the grill but then the wife said she was paying, lol. So I did have my ribeye, chicken breast, and shrimp meal again. Had a side of sliced avacado and gave the rice to my daughter. Also, my cherry trees are in season (the same tree that broke my ankle this year), so we've been picking at them. Gotta keep your eyes open for worms though, lol.

I've used "Map My Walk" in the past and found it to be user-friendly and very useful.

I hear this term tossed around a lot. I need to look into exactly what this is.

I got roasted online after posting a picture of the quarter pound patties I got from McDonald's the other day. A whole host of people said it's not real beef, that it's soy, worms, cardboard, or human flesh, even challenging me to look it up online. So, I did. In this video I demonstrate that McDonald's hamburger patties are indeed 100% real beef, and take a little dive into where these crazy rumors come from, and why they still persist.

Sausage for breakfast. Beef jerky around midday as a hold-me-over, and then after swimming in the pool I grilled some NY Strips.

I had to look up what prawns are. I see they are crustaceans, similar to the shrimp we eat over here. Thanks for the update. I look forward to hearing more and more about your continued progress

If you want to gain muscle, then lift heavy things. If you want to gain fat, you might need to consume more and incorporate more carbohydrates, the safer, less-toxic kinds.

And ruminant animals, with their multichambered stomachs, do even better and breaking down the plant's self defense toxins that they consume. That's why beef is one of the purest, most nutrient dense foods available. Disgusting, lol. Do have a reference for that in a study somewhere? That would be a valuable reference/resource. I was listening to a video while driving around this morning that said the very same thing about organic foods and spray-overs. Here in the USA, if an animal is given an antibiotic, the law requires several weeks to pass before that animal can be slaughtered, to give it's body enough time to exrete or break it down. The odds of ingesting antibiotics are actually pretty low.

Exactly! lol. I've been told this about several issues - and I've fixed every one of them WITH diet. Sigh!

Just had 4 sausage patties this morning. For lunch I snacked on some beef jerky, beef sticks, and some cheese. I'm thinking about doing another 30 days all Lion Diet, but I might wait until September. So much going on in the summer time.

Oh that looks really interesting. I haven't. The closest thing I have used to one is an old George Foreman grill, which is designed to let the fat roll away from your food to be collected and disposed of. Now that I'm mostly carnivore, I wouldn't dream of letting that wonderful fat go down the drain, lol.

This morning I had corned beef that comes in a can. It's delicious. Many people have had "Hash" which is canned corned beef mixed with diced potatoes. But you can get it with just the corned beef by itself. I'm the only one that eats it, so I ate it all. It was plenty and didn't need an egg or anything to go with it. Dinner was ground beef while everyone that was over for our little pool party had pizza.

I quite coffee out of desperation in summer 2019. The medical insurance I elected in January of that year REFUSED to pay for my ulcerative colitis meds, which without insurance costs around $2000 USD/mo. So I stopped taking them. By the time March came around I knew I was in trouble because the symptoms started returning. My early May they were debilitating again. My previous doctor said it was not diet related and there was nothing I could do. I started eliminating things from my diet anyway. And over time, as I was reading forums like this one that centered around IBS, IBD, Crohn's, and Colitis, I came across many people who talked about how coffee was a trigger. Well, I would drink and ENTIRE POT on the daily. So I decided to quit, cold turkey, since that was one thing I hadn't eliminated yet. And to my delight, my symptoms went away. I've remained prescription free since 2019.

Is that the show on the History Channel that's 8 seasons and counting so far? I never heard of it, but I just Google'd it. @ol_hilly's comment made me think this was a YouTube series.

First of all, THANK YOU for sharing your story and putting yourself out there like that. That took a lot of courage I'm sure. Your successes with Keto PROVE that your health and weight loss goals are something that you CAN accomplish. So keep doing what you are doing, and don't return to your former habits. In the end, our secret is taking control of our food, choosing real food, and deciding that we are no longer going to be slaves to the processed junk pushed on us by Big Food coorporations. Awesome. Those short walks add up, so keep doing them. Just do what you can. As you lose weight and build endurance, you will naturally be able to accomplish more and more. But don't hurry up and hurt yourself. Be smart about it. As you progress, you will only feel better and better, both physically and mentally. Smoking is a good analogy, btw. We know processed food is bad for you. Smoking is bad for you and detrimental to your health. Paul Saladino has some videos where he compares the carcinogens in processed food with those found in cigarettes, and it's pretty darn gross, lol. Basically, eating certain processed foods is equivalent to smoking packs of cigarettes. Amazing... and alarming. If the good Lord didn't already prepare it in some edible form, it's best to stay away from it.

I'm definitely saving money on this way of eating. Around here, eggs are cheap and ground beef is reasonable. They are satiating and so I am not snacking all day long on process junk that just keep fueling my hunger. I use a lot less TP also from a roll a day when I had ulcerative colitis to just a few squares a few times a week. Quitting coffee has saved me tons. Mind you, before this, I was all about the convenience. Hitting up Starbucks in the morning, fast food for lunch, and dining out at dinner were regular features of mine several days a week. Now I only occasionally do any of that. Truthfully, just learning to cook at home, regardless of what diet you are doing, will save you some cash.

What's that? When I think of a Taurus I think of a car manufactured by Ford. When I Google it, I just get pages of results about astrological stuff.

Dude, my dog is so spoiled, lol. She get's her own little portion of scraps or leftovers several times a week.

I worked at Papa John's Pizza, Marco's Pizza, and East of Chicago Pizza as well as a local place called Guido's Pizza back in the 90's and none of them ever used oils on their pizza. Now, with that said, shredded cheese has some fillers/anti-caking agents in it, but it's pretty benign. My son picks the cheese off his pizza and I in turn gobble it up, lol. I'll occasionally get a "pizza bowl" if the wife is buying pizza for everyone else that night (complete with the tomato sauce). I personally do not fund pizza purchase, lol I've become very fond of lamb. I'll get ground lamb, lamb chops, and the lamb ribs. Sam's sells a 5lb leg of lamb that I haven't got yet, but should. I just think I need a bigger knife first, lol.

This is true. That's why they call it the "Standard American Diet". It's SAD (get it, lol ). Glyphosate. They spray it on everything. It is best to try and avoid consuming anything treated with glyphosate as much as humanly possible, for sure. Glad to hear she has found a way to find some relief. As you may recall, I had terrible ulcerative colitis. I cured mine by quitting coffee. This fixed it to where I didn't need meds anymore. I feel like my carnivore diet put the final nail in the coffin of my UC but I can't really prove it. Quitting coffee gets most of the credit in my case. What was in the coffee? Who knows? Oxylates maybe. Too much caffeine. Glyphosate. Mold. A combination of all of the above? I'm just glad it's gone and I still have my colon. I doubt Roundup will get banned in the USA. Money controls everything over here.

So the way to test that, IF you want, is to do Lion Diet for at least 30 days or until your symptoms disappear. Then reintroduce JUST the shake (Lion Diet + shakes) and see if the symptoms return. If they do, we can pretty much assume it's something in the shake.

I have a bag of shrimp in the freezer. I just might get those out for tonight. This morning was eggs and sausage (my staple). For lunch I went to Duma's Meats and got some beef jerky.... https://www.dumameats.com/

Wow! Nice catch!

Note to self: Don't read this thread when you're hungry, lol
