This was yesterday's breakfast. A 4-egg omelet stuffed with Jimmy Dean pork sausage and cheddar cheese inside, and then sprinkled with parmesan cheese on the outside. It was delicious and ended up being my only real meal yesterday (around 2pm). I snacked on pork rinds later on.

We had a karaoke party on Saturday night. Wife made beef meatballs in the crock pot so everyone could make meatball subs. I had mine sans bun of course. Future daughter in law brought this chicken dip she makes that is mostly carnivore friendly - it has Frank's Red Hot sauce in it. Someone else did bring a fruit tray and I admittedly snuck a strawberry.

Continue doing what works for you :)
You can do it!
I consider myself a carnivore - although I will occasionally dip a toe into keto or paleo/animal-based on rare occasions, depending on the circumstances (usually where I am or who I am with).
Kinda like the person who doesn't drink but is a social drinker. I don't eat plants but I'm a social keto guy, lol.

Good luck.
I started off on the carnivore diet and looked at it just like any other diet out there. Do it for awhile, drop some weight then revert to my previous ways of eating.
After six-8 weeks I was seeing metabolic improvements and improvements with an autoimmune disease that if anyone told me my story beforehand, I would have called BS. Just can't be.
With that, my carnivore diet has evolved into my carnivore lifestyle. I can't predict the future, but I can't see any reason to go away from this WOE.
Good luck.

We would like to stay carnivore or keto as a permanent lifestyle this time.

Welcome back to carnivore and welcome to Carnivore Talk.
It’s great that you are seeing such good benefits from eating a proper human diet.
The benefits are so good that for many of us it’s a lifestyle that we will never abandon.

On May 1st, my husband and I went on carnivore for the 4th time. He had previously lost over 70 lbs. I lost about 30 lbs. But this time around has been different because my psyche meds were lower. I am now experiencing more of the full benefits of the diet.
Smooth glowy skin
Weight loss
Energy all day
Mental focus
Confidence
Desire to exercise each day
Hair growth
What works for me is high fat. It's like I can't get enough. I eat a lot of pork belly, fatback, and add beef tallow to tea and coffee. We still use seasoning but we keep any keto treats to a minimum.

Congrats.
In the beginning I was concerned with cholesterol as I had spent many years on a dumpster diet with pretty much no exercise other than the physical nature of my job.
As time went on I put less and less thought into the cholesterol numbers. Mostly, because I was deep into ketosis most of the time (with high GKI numbers) so it would stand to reason more fat/cholesterol would be in my bloodstream at any given time.
After two years I get it checked but don't really make adjustments. My initial total and LDL went down after the first three or four months on carnivore. Six months later it made a significant jump, then sort of planed off some and here recently made some drops across the board. Other than the first six months I can attribute the cholesterol numbers to the adjustments I have made within the carnivore diet. (upping/lowering fat content as well as upping protein grams per day)
Congrats on the progress. Continued successes.

Welcome to Carnivore Talk Oyodi.
We love to hear the success stories from our fellow carnivores. It is a wonderful healing lifestyle.

Hi Newby here
4 years on keto and now 3 months on Carnivore, beef, eggs, salmon and plenty of butter and tallow, no dairy, feel marvellous, have reversed metabolic syndrome, diabetes type 2, blood pressure, BMI now 21, 63kg) and off all medication except Ezetimibe only to placate my doctor as my total LDL went up (LMHR), lol, but every other blood marker was excellent. Just watched the documentary "The Cholesterol Code" on Amazon Prime, a must watch documentary for people on a Ketogenic Carnivore diets.

My son did some deer jerky back in the winter and did a few strips of bacon as well.
The bacon was quite the treat.
I'm not sure how long your trip is going to be, but it is bacon, so those look like single serving packages. If you can't just eat one with a potato chips, I am almost positive a person can't stop at one with bacon.
Good luck and safe travels.

Getting ready for a vacation trip to Alabama on the 15th. So taking a page from Missouri Carnivore (Kelly) tips on traveling carnivore I dehydrated about 2.5 pounds of bacon and vacuum sealed it for the trip.

If you’ve never tried dehydrated bacon you really should give it a go if you have the means to do it, it may be my new favorite way of eating bacon.
I’ll also be dehydrating beef jerky this week.

I was the same way when I first started. I went with the 'eat when hungry and eat til comfortably full' I lost 95lbs in about 10-11 months.
I could eat a steak today and it would be 24-36 hours before I had the slightest inkling of hunger.
Around 15-16 months I started protein shakes to try to hit protein targets with the lack of hunger. I experimented with a store bought 30 gram protein drink which had 7 grams of sugar. When I drank these it triggered some hunger and I could then get in another steak or burger.
I have since gained some weight back due to eating to a target vs. eating when I'm hungry.
I think carnivore results vary from person to person but I also think people have to dial it in to fit them as an individual. It takes some experimenting and dialing to make it fit just right.
Good luck.
Scott

Makes sense, thanks.

F social media for the most part especially TT.
Rumble for free speech imo,

Post it, we won’t censored or judge unless it’s vulgar.

Actually I am being sarcastic.....

Geoff knows this is NOT chuck roll.
After processing it, it seemed to be select not choice but regardless scoring 4 ribeye loins marked chuck roll for $5.99/lb is a huge win.

No lip and pre trimmed. ie; minimal trim left for tallow

Score my behind…you flat out stole that cow. Congratulations. Great deal.

It depends on what your goals are at the moment. I'm 5'8" and approximately 80kg if the online conversion calculator is correct.
If you are trying to lose weight, the general rule is not to eat unless you're hungry. It's certainly won't hurt you to fast for two or three days.
I wouldn't go much beyond that. Your body does have protein and nutritional needs, so eventually you will want to have a meal.
Some people practice fasting regularly, often choosing to do a 2 to 5 day fast once a month, or once a quarter, etc.

You all are scoring some good prices. Sam's Club has NY Strips at $11.97 per pound and ribeyes are $14.97 per pound. Both of them are usually a little more. I think they were marked down for Memorial Day.

The context of the image isn't exactly true, so I understand why it would get flagged as misinformation.
While RFK Jr. has made comments regarding his skepticism of lab grown meat and is pushing for strict regulatory scrutiny from agencies like the FDA (in other words, take this seriously and don't just slap a "generally recognized as safe" label on it and sweep it under the rug), there has been no talk of a nationwide ban.
There have been bans on the state level in certain states, and he has cheered on these states who have taken this seriously.

I go to the gym regularly and most every day I do a kettlebell workout in my front yard.
I do four different kettlebell lifts, 10 reps each, continuously and then walk about 40 yards to the well house and back. Then repeat. I try to do this five times.
This morning I was pretty beat after the fourth set and the fifth felt like a struggle. Then I looked up and found some motivation.
Either something had died close by or the four buzzards circling above knew something about my future that I did not.
I picked it up a tad to let them know I was still kicking.

I should have taken a picture but my wife scored on ribeyes yesterday.
Food Lion has them for $10.99/lb. We got 20 steaks. Saved about $125 off the normal $18.99/lb.
Most of them looked really good but there were a couple that were a tad lean for ribeye.
For those I will just add a stab or two of butter.
Scott

I'm going to check this out tomorrow to see if it is the same price in our area.
Is it sliced or is the packaging fooling me?
I watched a video on how to cut the chuck roll into the denver steaks, the ribeyes, etc. but my buddy buys his whole and just slices it into steaks. They turn out pretty good.
Scott

So today wife wanted to go to Costco and looky what I found.

This is the new chuck roll 🤣😂😅
