Laura got a reaction from The Hamburgler in How to start
Welcome, The Hamburglar!! You will probably end up trying different variations, to find out what works best for you. This is only my 3rd day, without nuts. I am including some mozzarella cheese slices, plain Full fat Greek yogurt, and my only meat is beef, mostly burger. I hope to get to beef only.

Laura reacted to Susyn C_137 in Daily Exercise
I have been lifting weights 4 times a week, treadmill (walk nowadays, used to run) 6-7 days a week for 40+ years. I have added restorative yoga once a week for a couple of years. I run three or four 5Ks a year since 1999. The 50-59 female age group is pretty small, so I usually come in first. Exercise has never made the slightest impact on my weight, I do it to stay healthy and mobile as I age.

Thank you, Orweller, for those ideas! I should try focusing on one area at a time. Have been doing pretty much the same routine for years, which works the whole bod every day. Perhaps I would see better results if I focused intensely on one area at a time .
Scott, it's amazing to me that you manage all of that with your condition! You are a trooper!!

Does anyone n the community have a regular exercise routine? If so, what do you do? I do about one hour and twenty minutes, of resistance bands, light weights, and a Jane Fonda type routine. Plus moving around a lot throughout the day. I'm not a sitter-like to keep moving!

Laura got a reaction from Bob in help: sticky poop sticks to bowl for both me and my daughter on carnivore diet: ground beef and eggs.
I can't eat eggs, bacon, or butter, so would probably not be able to join. I can do beef, cheese, Greek yogurt. My brother comes 9/10 for 4 days from Hawaii, so family get togethers then. I plan to stay on the plan that's working for me. Eliminated nuts today, so another step. 😊

Laura got a reaction from Meathead in 7 Months eating Eggs and Meat- Crossroads( Long post)
Andre-Im sure this is very frustrating for you. I, too, have been stalled for about a year now, and am trying to figure it out. You may want to check out Annette Bosworth, MD(Dr Boz). She seems to do a lot with macros. Another quite drastic approach is Protein Sparing Modified Fast, which Maria Emmerich promotes. I dropped a bunch of weight, and got down to 100 lbs, when I first started this in 2018, then started gaining about a year ago, and am now stalled at 123. I do know it wouldn't be good to add a bunch of inflammatory carbs, which will spike your insulin.

I just started taking a probiotic, again, after being off of it for a while, and it's already making a difference in my digestion in just 2 days. Don't know if that would help you. The one I'm using is Solgar Advanced Bowel Support, 30 billion. No additives, just the veggie cap. I also use 3 digestive enzymes: Enzymedica Digest, Enzymedica Lypo Gold, and Codeage Beef Pancreas. I have much trouble with digestion, especially fat digestion, and all these help a lot!!

A roasted beef short rib, 6 oz ground beef, 2 oz mozzarella, whole milk plain Greek yogurt with a bit of raw green stevia, cashew butter, and a few cashews. Ditched the veg... too inflammatory.

A medical book from the 1700s recommends raw milk and ruminant meat for many illnesses...

A soup with ground beef, zucchini (peeled and seeded), and tiny bits of fresh ginger, kombu, carrot, and romaine. Plus some peeled and seeded cucumber. My gut and skin have been really bad, so decided to try adding back a few veg, as well as a probiotic. I also had a bit of cashew butter, nothing added, just dry roasted cashews. Maybe keto is better for me. The leg cramps with straight Carnivore, even with a few nuts, are unbearable for me. And I'm taking electrolytes. 800-1000 mg magnesium daily.

Laura got a reaction from Bob in Greetings from a Newbie
Welcome, Jughead! I just joined myself, and find this to be a very supportive, informative, and caring community. I have been Keto/Carnivore since 2018, and have tried many variations of those diets. Now I'm just eating beef and a few cashews. I did have some cheese today, and I need to ditch that for good. We're all different, so as the others said, you need to find what works for your body. Ditching the things you have is a great place to start.
