Meathead

I am 103 days into my first carnivore journey, and so far, so good. I started because I had a terrible candida infection, my asthma was out of control, and my allergies were so severe they kept me from functioning — not to mention having pneumonia three times in six years.
The carnivore diet wasn’t something I wanted to do, but I knew I needed to try something different. I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life on inhaled and oral steroids. So far, I am down to one steroid inhaler and one over-the-counter allergy medication, and I’m hoping to wean off those soon as well.
Has anyone here also suffered from allergies and asthma? If so, how long did it take before you were able to come off all your allergy and asthma medications?
I am also a food addict, and I never expected this way of eating to free me from my food addiction. That has been an unexpected bonus. I just wanted to feel better physically. I truly never thought there would be a solution to my food addiction — I believed I would have to live with it for the rest of my life.
I am 59 years old and have struggled since I was 16. I thank God for the six years of respiratory suffering because it ultimately led me to freedom from the food addiction I had battled for most of my life.
I do feel saddened that among all the nutritionists, doctors, eating disorder therapists, and treatment centers I encountered over the years, not one of them ever mentioned a proper human diet.
I am deeply grateful for the carnivore diet and for all the people on social media who have shared their experiences.

The natural way is always the best way.

It is one of those things I was going to look into when you made some posts some time ago. And for whatever reason, I didn't follow thru.
I am going to do some reading this weekend over at Google University and watch some videos at the YouTube College of Medicine.
These are the only two degrees I have right now.

Just look up Kent carnivore on YouTube.
Remember this..... Dr's aren't curing but managing ( putting a bandaid) on the problem.
Unlike the stuff that is man made, red meat doesn't need to be dosed to each person.
Unless for some unforseen reason your child is allergic to red meat then what's the harm in giving them a proper diet 🤔
We need to take control and responsibility over our health and stop trusting whitecoats because of their misinformation education.

Last of my $5.99/lb roasts 😪 with 6 eggs.
After tonight it's going to be an eggsellant adventure 🤣
18 maybe 20 eggs a day

So instead of 16/day I eat 1 carton of 18 a day.
Cooked in tallow and finishing up last of my cheese.
I reclaimed bottom shelf finally after 1 year 🤣

No personal experience but I had read Geezy and Bob's experiences sometime back. My son's best friend has had colitis issues since he was about 12-13. He has been in and out of hospitals throughout middle and high school. He has been to the point where a colostomy bag was looking like the next step.
At 29 he recently had a really bad bout that left him hospitalized for a couple-three days. I didn't preach carnivore to him but I did tell him if he didn't do all out carnivore to cut out everything processed, fast foods, soft drinks, sugary type foods, eat mostly meat and do the fruits and vegetables sparingly.
He says he feels better after a month or so and hadn't had any issues. I think, one it takes time for it to work, but it also takes time to see if it is working as the issues can sort of come and go.
Good luck, Thoughts and prayers for your kid and your family. Tough deal for most anyone, even more so for a 12-year-old.

We had a karaoke party on Saturday night. Wife made beef meatballs in the crock pot so everyone could make meatball subs. I had mine sans bun of course. Future daughter in law brought this chicken dip she makes that is mostly carnivore friendly - it has Frank's Red Hot sauce in it. Someone else did bring a fruit tray and I admittedly snuck a strawberry.

I said it once I'll say it again.
NATTO is awesome.
Almost 2 years after I promoted this someone in the medical and Carnivore field gives us food for thought.

Busy day cooking today.
2 pounds of liverwurst.


1 chuck roast (fire grilled but in the crockpot now)
1 large heart


2 pounds of hamburger patties
3 pounds of tablitas

Hard to beat meat cooked over a wood fire

I took a hiatus from all things carnivore while in-laws were here from back home.
I gave into the food nonsense proving a point as to why the shit they're eating/drinking/supplementing
with is garbage.
Weigh in starting August 2025 - End Feb 2026
I was the ONLY one to lose weight throughout this endeavor.
Coming back into 0 carbs after 6 months of garbage in garbage out was tough, worse than quitting drinking.
Yes I even tried to drink (sipped my fav porter/whiskey and it made me gag. But the carbs were so easily
consumed but the side effects were not easily dealt with.
I shot up 45 lbs, my fatty jeans were brought out for work.

Today I'm down 20lbs, feeling 30ish again and on top of the world.

Never say never.....

I'm bipolar, recovering alcoholic and anything is possible when you see what can happen thru PATIENCE.
Just remember how booze makes you feel and what you accomplish when you're drinking (or not accomplishing) and the same goes
for the FOOD noise aka carbs/sugars etc.
I refuse to feel like crap and give in because QUITTING is easy and nothing in life comes without putting effort into something.

Welcome aboard and glad to have you.

Back to Bacon & Eggs with sauerkraut for the duration.
9-10 eggs
1/2 lb bacon
half cup sauerkraut
OMAD

Glad to have you back brother.

Congrats and welcome back.
As stated before I have been in awe and somewhat jealous of the amounts others talk about eating. I got to the point that if I ate a 14-16oz. ribeye I was done for the next 24-30 hours, at times even longer. It was like I was never hungry.
I tried protein powder and then used one of the Shamrock protein drinks, and within a few hours I was really hungry. I tried another one a few days later and it sparked hunger again.
Short story long I used the sugar to create hunger to hit a protein target. From December 1st til now I have went from 211 to 237 and today around 230. Other than the sugar intake, still strict carnivore, but have a better understanding in regard to the power of sugar.
Again, welcome back.

12oz steak today cooked in butter:

I’m gonna have to try sauerkraut with eggs.

59 yo Brit Rick
Lost 150lbs in 18 months post lockdown on trad keto (6 months, hated it) and then 12 months Lion Diet (loved it)
Fell off the wagon and regained bad habits and 100lbs

Looking to support and be supported. Set 600 day rejuvention plan. Currently day 15. I am including well fermented
foods (kraut, really old cheese and real kefir) so apologies in advance if that is frowned upon

See you around. I had a lot of success and I realise now that I was in a lot of communities and that was a big part

Awesome! And happy Carniversary!
It just dawned on me that my 3 year carniversary was May 12th. And @Geezy is May 9th. Fun that we are all May meaties :)
