This channel is perfect for me ATM. When I stumbled last fall I was really feeling insecure about being extreme or orthorexic. And now I am recognizing that my desire to nourish my body with nutrients and avoid hindering poisonous ingredients is normal and not at all extreme.

This Channel is great for noobs or anyone struggling with addiction.

He came up in mine as well, but he has a video on slow jogging,🤨 so I tapped out as soon as I saw that. Eat bacon, no jogging. Sprinting all the way!

I drink decaf for the same reason. I have tried plain hot water, but I can only just tolerate it.

I am ready that now!

Too bad it has flour, I'm a tad curious how that would taste. Sounds terrible. That was some fine dancing tho!

I like the flavor of coffee. I drink decaf because regular causes muscle pain for me. I love Kent! He had Uncle Roger on, it was beautiful!

Our microwave has been broken for about ten years. When it broke DH and I decided it wasn't worth the extra money to be Guinea pigs. We do use the one in the camper when we are camping. Our microwave is currently our cast iron cabinet.

I know, I was a bit disappointed because DH would sometimes wake me up because it was so loud! And I kept thinking no fair, everyone else stops snoring immediately upon starting this woe.

It didn't work for me, but adding the acv, my husband told me I wasn't snoring the week after I started the acv.

I think the acv at bedtime also reduces snoring

It's good to look at weekly averages. They give you insight into trends.

Please elaborate

And this morning Oswald reminds us not to allow our habits to be little gods. Thank you @Geezy for posting this. I needed to read this again with fresh eyes

I have a hard time listening to Nick, I just don't care for his delivery. Can someone tell me the TLDR on this?

This made me smile 😁

That's me to a T. I have never carried butter, but I have whipped out my own salt. I have also pointed out that the whipped butter for the bread tasted oily and prolly wasn't real butter

I would love to do a weekly 24 or maybe a monthly 32. But I have to win over the critic. DH really feel like not eating dinner is disruptive, even if I come to the table and drink water. I explained to him that I have "dined" out with coworkers while sipping decaf and nobody cares. It doesn't disturb anyone. My son's least favorite meal is dinner, he is always most picky and most likely to just pass on everything. I have tried to explain that the kid is a lot closer to the way God created us than we are, perhaps we should take a hint and skip dinner. He is hung up on all the studies and popular advice about eating together as a family and I get what they are saying, but I know I feel best when I stop eating by 4pm. And sometimes the meat is too heavy that late in the day. Last night I woke up with heart burn. I had a small bowl of reheated pot roast and a decaf. I haven't had heartburn in a while, but fatty red meat in the evening does make my sleep horrible.

I don't think I ever posted one of these in the first place so here goes I am 51 and have been trying to be healthy most of my adult life. I have been overweight or obese that entire time 5'8" 200-215#. I have tried atkins in the early 2000's, food tracking, juice fasting, HIIT, whole thirty, and whole food plant based, and finally omad. The fasting helped me to break through to a new weight loss plateau. All of the previous methods lost and regained the same 15#. I was finally down to 185 ish. I watched a lot of carnivore content before trying it full time February of 24. I don't have any local support for fasting, but the attitude has softened a bit about the carnivore. My family wants to loose weight, but they won't give up carbs %100. I have gotten them to be low carb most days, but they still want pancakes on Sundays. This past fall, probably around Thanksgiving, I don't remember the particulars, I just threw in the towel. I know I weighed 178 the morning of my colonoscopy in late October. I guess I was feeling afraid of being orthorexic. I was also overwhelmed with being a short order cook trying to accommodate everyone's tastes So found my self stepping on the scale to the tune of 205# sometime around Easter. Two days later I decided to "Stop the insanity" as Susan powder used to scream from the boob tube in the 80s. Today I weigh 194# My why is that I want to grow old without being trapped in the malady maintenance system. I watched my grandma and my MIL linger in a confused state for over a decade. I don't want any part of that. I want to be useful and connected right to the end. Not sitting or laying in my own mess waiting to die. I also want to be optimized. I feel like the only way to get people to get on board is to fully succeed. I can't win anyone over if I am constantly jumping ship. So every moment I can get, I listen to testimonials. I learned about this forum, by watching @Geezy tell his story on YouTube. I don't have any major illnesses, I've never had boils, T2D or high blood pressure. I have never been diagnosed with IBS but Im sure I had it whenever I ate seed oils. I am feeling a bit frustrated in my body as I approach menopause, but I don't think there is anything my doctor can do about that. I don't accept this as the new normal, when I know there is work that I could be doing to correct course. I plan to hit an ideal weight not for vanity, but that I can be a poster child worthy of the title carnivore! Happy Mother's Day everyone!

I love this type. They are from Latvia I believe. I buy them at Walmart.

I have been catching up with old posts since my hiatus. I happen to watch this video yesterday and this thread seems like a perfect place for it. Bible based nutrition

I can remember sneaking some raw ground beef from the kitchen when I was staying with my grandma. She was horrified. Told me I was going to get worms. It was delicious.
