That's awesome. I quit coffee but still have a hot tea and some artificially sweetened caffeinated beverages throughout the day. That's really the next addiction I need to focus on. I would be curious if I would see better and faster results with water alone.

Slurp it up, lol. I actually do depending on what I am cooking. If it renders out of a burger I will probably scrape it off and toss it in the can. But when I am making tacos, I don't drain the fat. When I make breakfast sausage or bacon, I will literally lick the plate clean

If either @Terry or @Scott F. would like to do an interview-style YouTube video and share their stories and successes, I think that would be fantastic. I have a couple friends with MS. One of them has a very bad form of it, and it's debilitating. He's had to quit work and file for and fight for disability, and lost a lot in the process. He's on several daily pills, suffers brain fog, and has put on a chunk of weight. He hasn't really wanted to hear about my diet while his hand is in a bag of chips. But a video - he could watch that in his free time, privately, and not feel like he's being lectured to, lol.

Welcome aboard Jesse! It's been about a week now. How are you fairing with the changes?

I had to search up what those are. Never heard of them. Now I want some, lol

It might. What chart it that? That doesn't sound right at all. A ribeye should have that near perfect 1:1 ratio unless someone went and trimmed off all the fat. According to the federal food database, your 100g piece of ribeye (approx 3.5 ounces) contains 20g of fat and 19g of protein... https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/food-details/2646172/nutrients

Cool. I'll have to grab me a copy. I love the title, lol.

Exactly. My body will do something much different with 2500 calories of steak than it will with 2500 calories of donuts, lol. I can lose weight with the one, but will get very fat with the latter.

How much fat and how much protein should you be eating on a carnivore diet? How do you calculate your fat to protein ratio? In this video we explain how to get a 70% fat to 30% protein ratio in your diet, which is the common recommendation. We also explain how to achieve the oft sought after 80% fat to 20% protein ratio that many people strive for and thrive on.

This is kinda sorta true, and kinda sorta not. It depends on what we consider a "mask". I previously said... Maybe now it's best to differentiate between a "mask" and a "respirator". The cloth mask by itself is useless. You would need to wear multiple ones. The recommendation was at least 3 cloth masks. The principle here was that it would not protect you from others, but would deflect your exhalation out the left and right sides instead of directly at the person in front of you. I spoke incorrectly about the surgical masks. They are even more useless than the cloth mask. They are designed to protect against droplets from both the surgeon's mouth to the patients wound, and from the patients fluids splashing towards to surgeon's mouth, but will be ineffective against aerosols and small particles. The N95's, which is a respirator, not a mask, offers the best incoming protection, but if it has a vent to make exhalation easier and to prevent moisture buildup inside the mask, then it does nothing to protect others from you. It's simply protecting you from others and doing a pretty damn good job of it too. But they are the most uncomfortable.

All in one meal? Wow! That's almost 3 pounds in one sitting.

7 more days left in March - which is 7 more days to post in this topic and 2 more Monday night zoom meetings to get extra entries. I was a little MIA this last week. S Corp taxes were due last week so I was scrambling to balance my books. And then over the weekend I didn't feel so hot. I think I ate some meat that was a little bit past it's best-by date.

Depends what you mean by "work" - or rather, what you want the word "work" to mean for you. I find that people in the "masks don't work" camp have in mind the false expectation that the mask would be the equivalent of a bullet proof vest, as if you should be able to put in on and be "shot at" by viruses at point blank range and have you be invincible. In reality, a mask acts as filter to reduce the number of germs that you breathe in or breathe out. I work in construction and do demolitions, so I know a bit about masks. The effectiveness of the mask will depend on the size of the particles floating around in the air. In construction that could be asbestos. In this case, it's viruses. It's about risk reduction, not "protection". "Risk" is variable, depending on a lot of factors. For example, my high triglycerides put me at higher risk of cardiac disease. This doesn't mean I am guaranteed not to get cardiac disease. Likewise, a mask doesn't guarantee that you won't catch a virus. It's just a layer of risk reduction. And the type of mask effects that variability. The cloth masks by themselves were damn near useless. You would have to wear like half a dozen of them layered on top of each other. The surgical masks were slightly better (they are worn by medical staff for a reason), and the ever uncomfortable N95 were the most effective. Social distancing is also effective. It's common sense that if you sneeze in my face I will likely get sick. But if you sneeze 20 feet away from me, my risk of getting sick is reduced. I previously said... I want to add that this is in my congregation of approximately 100-ish attendees. Everyone in the congregation has caught covid at least once, most people 2 or 3 times or more. We even had an outbreak that affected almost everyone at the same time. But these individuals who mask up religiously have NEVER caught covid, 5 years and counting. They haven't had the flu, a cold, or even a sniffle either.

I had to have some work done on my truck, but couldn't hitch a ride from the shop where I needed to take it. So I put my bike in the bed and after dropping the truck off, I rode my bike home. Probably 2 miles, with ups and downs along the way. Man were my legs burning, lol. It's been a long time since I've rode the bike. I had to pump up the tires.
