So very true. Modern medicine has saved my life on numerous occasions. It has also tried to kill me. Then there are the times when it’s just kept me on the hook.

We were all brainwashed like that at one time. Fortunately our minds opened up like a parachute before it was too late and we learned the truth. Some people will never accept the truth no matter what you tell them. The best defense is to have a good offense. Arm yourself with truth, knowledge and the facts. Be prepared to site the studies, direct them to the doctors and provide the proof that proves your case. This will give you more confidence and when you exhibit confidence it gives you more authority. When they babble with their jargon just ask them to site their studies or proof. Be prepared. There can be many reasons for this. I don’t know how long you’ve been a carnivore or how you eat so it could be a time thing or more than likely a hormonal thing or just an adaptation thing. As long as you are seeing results that’s what matters. Healing is primary and weight loss is secondary and usually happens in time.

Welcome to Carnivore Talk Georgia. Glad you could join us I’m not Lion but all I eat is fat, protein, salt and water. I will have some cheese or yogurt occasionally and I do eat chicken and pork. Please don’t ever think that what you are doing is something negative. You have to follow your own path in this journey. Your unique circumstances have put you in this situation but many chose to do this just for general health. You are not alone. You are among like minded individuals here and no one will judge you for your choices. As carnivores, most of us give up things that most are not willing to give up and that makes us all unique in this lifestyle.

Lookin good brother.

My heart goes out to these people and I hate the doctors for putting them on that poison. Even if these people are fortunate enough to not destroy their digestive system and possibly die an early death they will never be able to stop taking the drug. It’s a forever thing for them and Big Pharma knows it.

I don’t track mine because I’m just too lazy to do it and what I’ve been doing has worked well for me but there was a time when I was curious so I downloaded an app and tracked for a week and it showed my WAG was right around 70% fat and 30% protein.

I dunno…we eat carnivore mimicking our ancestors and fasting was a part of their daily existence. They feasted as long as they had food but then fasted when they had to hunt again. I believe it’s a natural part of our physiological system. I tried to imagine this last hunting season and even thought about only eating if I killed something but the game laws prevented me from trying it.

Good video.

Exactly. No more than a cat or dog eating some grass occasionally.

Fooled me with that one. 😝 That’s my kind of pharmacy.

Spot on Tony.

Ketones are what we use for energy. If you are exercising more then the body needs more energy so the body will be using up more ketones. It may not be that your body isn’t producing more ketones but that you are using up what your body is producing. The measurement of ketones in your body show either what is present or what is being expelled so it could stand to reason that if you are burning them up for energy due to increased exercise there may not be as many show up in the test.

On my last blood test my A1C was 5.6 which was up from 5.2 from six months earlier. At 5.2 I had been a carnivore for 6 months. So at 5.6 I had been carnivore for a year. As I progress in my diet my hemoglobin are living longer so it kinda skews the numbers. I do not ever eat any sugars, carbs or artificial sweeteners. Remember, our blood test results are judged against a thousand people who got there test done at the same clinic before us. As such we are judged against other people who do not eat the way we do. It’s a pretty un fair comparison if we are not judged against our peers. My cholesterol numbers were, Total cholesterol 329 Triglycerides 51 HDL 68 I have no concerns whatsoever about any of my numbers.

Everyone is different. What one experiences another may not. It could be that her youth at the time may have contributed or maybe autophagy just worked better in her. She also didn’t lose her weight fast. It took her six months before she even started to lose weight. The younger one is the easier they seem to snap back. We cannot compare ourselves to what others have experienced. That’s a bad road to go down because it can lead to disappointment. I’m in my late sixties and I lost 67 pounds in a year and a half. Thats pretty fast. Being obese that left behind a lot of loose skin. Has autophagy helped me? Maybe a little bit even if it hasn’t there’s nothing I can do about it short of surgery and I’m just not that vain. What’s important is my heath not my loose skin so I’m not worried about it. Nobody but my wife needs to see me naked anyways.

It’s funny that people will say that eating carnivore is too expensive as an excuse for not doing it but they shut up when I tell them that the fact that not buying all of the processed junk, sweets and vegetables that they used to buy offsets the cost. Now if you are the only one in a family of 4 eating carnivore then yeah, the grocery bill is probably going to go up.

I keep a printout of my lab work so I can monitor how things are going on as a carnivore. I’ll try to remember to look them up tomorrow.

They consider just killing the animal for food as being inhuman but they don’t take into account that they kill millions more animals than we do. Lol!

Young blonde patient asked, “Hey doctor, every time I touch myself here it hurts. What should I do?” Doctor replies, “Stop touching yourself there”. 😁 Sorry about that but I couldn’t help myself. You are right, the longer you go without those poisons in you the more sensitive you become to them. Not only that but your gut biome is now adapted to digesting nothing but fats and proteins. When you toss in carbs after all this time you end up with a clash of the titans. Not good. Nothing tastes as good as how I feel.

It’s your choice whether or not you take the drugs. My cardiologist loved what I did with carnivore. I hope yours will too. I stopped taking a statin when I learned that they don’t do anything other than line the pockets of Big Pharma. I stopped the blood thinner (aspirin) when I learned it damages kidneys. My cardiologist took me off of the metoprolol when my blood pressure came down to normal levels naturally due to carnivore. He then took me off of my last heart medication a year later.

Got back last night from a trip to Colorado where I ate good but not enough. Today I fixed 4 over easy eggs and a pound of venison burgers.

That depends on the individual. For most people no. The amount of sugar used in the cure is obviously small enough that it doesn’t need to be reported in the total carb count. If you can find sugar free then that’s great but I most of the carnivore doctors and influencers who eat bacon are eating the same thing you are. Now if you react to it in any way then it may be a problem for you.

Excellent job Bob.

Congratulations on getting this far. You are doing great. You should be past the physical cravings by now as long as you’ve been strict but you can still have phantom or memory cravings. You remember how good something used to taste and it comes back to you. It can be overwhelming. I’m almost two years in and I still get them. My solution is to eat something fatty or just fat itself. I make my own tallow and I save the leftover rendered fat pieces for a snack if I get a craving. Bacon helps with those cravings too. When it comes to variety of food you are only limited by your imagination. Instead of just burger and scrambled eggs why not make a meatloaf wrapped in bacon. Cook your eggs in different ways or even make an egg custard. There are cheap cuts of beef you can find on sale at the store such as chuck roasts, flank steaks, breakfast steaks. We will often buy a whole roast chicken and eat the dark meat and make chicken salad out of the white meat. Tuna or salmon salad are an option too. Pork butt is cheap and you get a lot. Hopefully you’ll get to the stage in at where I no longer eat for entertainment but only for nutrition. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
