Butter works for me.

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.

Unflavored collagen?

What do you guys think about using (clean, grassfed) whey protein powder occasionally for those who cannot eat enough protein for whatever reason? Also; for those having trouble getting enough fat, or on the verge of giving up because they're desperate for something other than meat, utilizing a serving KetoChow to stay technically Carnivore?

Hadn't thought of that! I'll post it in a few days. 😊

Spot on!

I'm not a big fan of eggs. To lesson the taste and boost my nutrition; I mix 2 scoops of unflavored collagen into two eggs and cook in either bacon fat, or a lot of butter. It gets really fluffy and kind of crunchy.

I've only been Carnivore 3 weeks and it's just finally started to become "normal". Currently I'm about 55% fat. If I go higher (right now) it's like brown water. Electrolytes and dialing in your personal fat tolerance seems to be key. It can take a long time. Remember, your body is busy healing years to decades of damage.

I want to say Streetcar named Desire?

How long have you been Carnivore, what was your diet before, and are you getting enough fat? The transition period can have some weird side effects.

Any pictures? Here are my furbabies: Gryffin (3), Berrin (12) & Rowan (12)

I used to give blood and they would always have a hissy fit over my cholesterol (around 500). My triglycerides were low, even when I was eating my worst, and my ratio was always great. Now I'm eating the Proper Human Diet. I can't do any better than that. It will be what my genes determine it should be. I have zero heart disease in my family anyway.

Once we move, I may get a yogurt maker. Although I have to see if we can get raw milk where we end up. It's easy to get here.

You're too nice! Thanks.
