Laura got a reaction from Susyn C_137 in Greetings from N.W. Arizona
Welcome, Susyn!
So glad you joined. I just joined myself. I've been Keto/Carnivore, since 2018,and have tried many variations of the diets. Now I'm just eating beef and a few cashews. It's great that you have no health issues, and are just trying to lose a bit. It's also great that your husband is Carnivore, and to have each other's support. I'm sure you will find this is a very caring community. Will check out your YouTube channel.

That's awesome, Geezy! Yes, Alaska is a very special place. It will live in my heart as long as I live. The winters would be too hard on me now. They are so long. I love watching Carnivore Bill Nott in Alaska. It's like going home again. I've been following him on his journey from the beginning. Amazing transformation!

Thank you, Geezy. Yes, beef is really the only thing I have available that I can tolerate. Lamb is good, but way too heating for me. Not sure about wild ruminants, as I don't have them available. I grew up in Alaska, where we always had moose and caribou. They are lean, but so good!! I have tried store bought bison, and didn't do much for me. I do eat a bit of plain whole milk Greek yogurt, some avocado, and a few cashews. Not all carnivore, but something to eat that I don't react to. Autoimmune issues, for sure.It is interesting to see what everyone eats, though. 😊

Laura got a reaction from Susyn C_137 in Hello everyone! New here. Terrible Anxiety
The insomnia and leg cramps at night are one thing that have prevented me going full carnivore in the past. Only 3 days in now myself, and I'm finding Organic full fat plain Greek yogurt about 4 hours before bed helps me sleep. It has a few carbs, but is still Carnivore. I don't know if that might help you, but I find it's balancing for me. 😊

Laura got a reaction from Nowler in (UK) Where do you source your meat?
I don't digest whole meats well, so, pretty much stick to ground beef. Have been buying SunFed Ranch 80/20 grass finished ground beef from a local grocer here in Bellingham, WA. Also, Whole Foods has Country Natural Beef Butchers Blend burger patties that are super good. Country Natural Beef is pastured, and grain finished, but no corn or soy. And mostly raised on Oregon ranches. Sun Fed is mostly California ranches I believe. I believe it's important to know where your food comes from, how the animals are treated, etc. It makes a difference!

My chicken experiment failed. Back to beef. Even organic chicken is fed soy and corn, and since chickens (and other birds, and pork), are mono gastric animals, they don't detoxify like ruminants do. I am super sensitive, and experienced lots of inflammation from just eating 2 drumsticks, and 4 wings. Bad arthritis, and gut issues. Beef is much cleaner. Many in this community seem to be able to eat so much more than I can. Maybe I will someday, but I have my doubts. Have been working on this for so long, and food intolerances have definitely increased. God gives me the strength to keep fighting!!

Sounds so good, Geezy!
I'm taking a beef break for a while. I'm getting too overheated from the beef and fat, and it's disturbing my sleep. So will have boiled chicken for a while. I need to lean out. Had a bit of avocado today, which was so refreshing, plus I needed the potassium.

Not familiar with this guy. We know the truth, but, sadly, many don't.

It seems like my metabolism slowed down a bit about a year and a half ago, and I'm 66.I used to be able to eat a lot more. I'm 123, but would like to be 110.

Very detailed tracking, Miranda! You are able to eat way more than I am, for sure. I have to keep it around 1200-1400 calories, or I will gain. And I work out about an hour a day, too. You must be young! 😊

Laura got a reaction from Bob in Nuts and nut butters
Thanks, Bob. I do think I need to get rid of cheese. I can tolerate it, but it caused bloating, and water retention. Cheese has salt, and who knows what kind of salt they use, even though the cheese is organic.I don't think I can drop weight, unless I get rid of that. I do have a good naturopath , who will test almost anything I ask her to, which is a blessing. I have a liver ultrasound, and those labs every 6 months, and they have been perfect all this time.
