  1. I moved these to the "What did you eat today?" topic, instead of the "Adaptive Glucose Sparing" topic.
  2. I need to add a "Wow!" reaction. I am really curious how a house would have been constructed back in the 1400-1500's. That's cool.
  3. Tonight is NY Strips. I'm redundant, lol. However, Taco Bell brought back the Mexi-Melt, which I used to absoutely adore. So I made a carnivore-friendly carnivore-ish version at home the other night using Egg Life Wraps and a little pico de gallo.

  5. Old habits die hard. We are creatures who like routine. We can establish a new routine, but it takes effort. That is why "going on a diet", "starting a diet", and "sticking to the diet" in the beginning is difficult. But, in time it becomes your new routine, and it becomes second nature. Keto-carnivore was a challenge at the beginning. Now it's just who I am.
  6. Awesome to see that list of achievements from being carnivore. I can relate to just about every one of them, including the thin in the face. I've always been fat with a rounded, fuller face, but when I lost the weight I thought I started to look... "old", lol. Grew my beard to cover that up, lol.
  7. That is impressive. It's strange thinking that it was up and running for around 900 years. Over here in the U.S. you have a company here and there that may have been around since the 1800's, but even that's rare.
  8. So for reference, back at the beginning, any small amount of carbs in the form of sugar (milk, processed food, fruit) would make me crave more. I didn't have this problem with keto-friendly vegetables like broccoli, asparagus, brussel sprouts, etc. I started with keto and then transitioned into carnivore in May 2023. In October, my wife baked pumpkin bread and wanted me to just "taste" it to see what I thought (it was my mom's recipe). She knew I wouldn't have a whole slice, but I agreed to just one bite. I hadn't had sugar or grain in 5 months. After taking a bite, something came over me that I never felt before. I can only imagine it is the same feeling that a crack/heroin addict feels, because all of a sudden I was STARVING, CRAVING, and JONESING for MORE. I did not give in, but I went downstairs and at a bunch of meat and cheese trying to calm the appetite. It was unreal, surreal feeling. It was addiction. I still had it even being 5 months off the carbs. Today, I am over the addiction. I don't have this reaction anymore whenever I have just a "taste" of something. So the moral of the story is, yes, it takes time. But in time, you will conquer and rise above those cravings from your former life.
  9. Those are the exact same eggs that I get from Sam's too 🙂

  12. Last night was Sirloin and Shrimp. Breakfast lately has been a 4-egg omelette with sausage, sour cream, and a few banana peppers for some zing.
  13. “For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the wholesome teaching, but according to their own desires, they will surround themselves with teachers to have their ears tickled.” (2 Timothy 4:3) Dietary ear tickling comes in catch phrases like... "There are no good and bad foods" and "Everything in moderation" and "Eat the rainbow", lol. I'm sure we can think of more, too.
  14. You did the egg-fast through most of November too, didn't you?

  16. I've got a friend with MS and he's deteriorating rapidly. Can't work anymore and is waiting on disability. I would love for him to give carnivore a try. But you know us carnivore, we sound nuts,
  17. Yup, sums it up nicely. Big Food is not your friend.
  18. I pay for the monthly Pro membership tier that let's me join his zoom calls every Wednesday. You can actually talk with him face to face but you got to get on and raise your hand early because he is only on for an hour.
  19. Yes, and I wouldn't worry about this. Mine is over 100, but that is because I am stage 4 CKD so I don't excrete the wastes from protein breakdown very efficiently at all.
  20. Isn't Dr. Berry in Nashville? From what I understand, he only sees a few remaining patients that he had over the years, in their homes, since his social media took off. But he might have a colleague in the area.
  21. Truth makes people mad, whether it's truth in religion, or truth in diet & health. "Maintain your conduct fine among the nations, so that when they accuse you of being wrongdoers, they may be eyewitnesses of your fine works and, as a result, glorify God in the day of his inspection." - 1 Peter 2:12 "Maintain a good conscience, so that in whatever way you are spoken against, those who speak against you may be put to shame because of your good conduct as followers of Christ." - 1 Peter 3:16 In like manner, keep eating a proper human diet, so that when they speak against you and tell you that you are wrong, they may yet be amazed at your weight loss and good health (and may be put to shame and eventually glorify healthy eating at a later time).
  22. This week has been rather repetitive. I buy eggs and NY strips in bulk, and the wife is refusing steak, lol. So literally every day I have had eggs and sauage for breakfast, and a NY Strip for dinner. I've been skipping lunch or just having a beef stick to hold me over, which is basically the pattern I had when I lost a bunch of weight while my ankle was broken. I'm 5 lbs down as of this morning, at 172, which is officially 60 lbs down now and the lowest I have seen on the scale.

  24. Welcome aboard! Being a @Sportfan, tell us what your favorite sport is 🙂 I'm also curious how 8 months of carnivore has benefitted you.
  25. Hey @Kyle Katarn! I was curious how things are going for you? Your last major step would be to eliminate the bread altogether. Then you would be avoiding the unholy trinity of grains, refined sugars, and seed oils - the trifecta of disease and death, lol.
