  1. Fried up some venison steaks tonight.
  2. Hang in there Valerie. Plan ahead to succeed and have precooked meats on hand for those times when you just don’t feel like cooking. Be determined to succeed and you will.
  3. Here we call those Tablitas. I call them bone in bacon. Best when cooked over a wood fire.
  4. ok, how about in a couple of days I tease you with some trout?
  5. Thanks Curt.
  6. Ate twice today. First meal was eggs and venison sausages. Then this evening fried catfish. Blue cats to be exact.
  7. That’s my kind of food pyramid.
  8. It sounds like you need to be your N of 1 so try something for a few weeks to a month and keep a journal on what you’re doing and what you experience. If something isn’t working then drop that and try something else. It’s best to start with a baseline of just fat, meat, salt and water and then add or subtract as needed to find what the issue may be. First things first though, make sure you are eating enough food because often when we see low energy or recovery it’s because we aren’t eating enough which is easy to do on carnivore. Good luck, I hope you get it figured out soon.
  9. It’s a journey stay strong and be committed. Why are you doing carnivore? It’s important to know your motivation. We are here to support you in any way we can so lean on us as you need to. To help with the cravings do not restrict what you eat. If you are craving eat more fatty meat. Keep some meat such as bacon or burger patties or strips of steaks cooked up and in the fridge for a quick snack if you need to suppress a craving. At this point don’t worry about how much you eat. Just get past the addiction and then we can focus on the amount.
  10. Eating a high fat moderate protein diet generally drives triglycerides down. a good place to start is by getting 70% of your calories from fat and 30% from protein. The only factor I’ve heard about cook meat is that it’s less nutritious but that’s a very nominal thing. I don’t see how that could be possible whe salt is a mainstay of this diet. The body needs sodium and as long as salt is tasting good to you then you need to use it. I just caution against normal table salt since most of it contains sugar. Me and nearly every carnivore I know would have been in trouble long ago if salt were an issue with utilizing fat. There has definitely been a depletion of iodine and some people may need to supplement. I personally don’t because I only supplement when I need to fix or control a specific issue. I don’t believe in supplementing unless you have a specific issue that needs it. If you are metabolically healthy you should be able to get what you need from your diet. Of course we are all different with different needs.
  11. I love a good story. Great results and positive influence. The weight fluctuations are perfectly normal and if you are building muscle it may even go up as you trim down. Im so happy you are doing so well. Keep up the good work and I hope your wife benefits equally well.
  12. Venison sausage from the last deer I took. It’ll be a week or so before I can start in on this one.
  13. You are smokin bro. Before long you’re going to look like this.
  14. Why do you want your cholesterol to go down? It’s only natural that your cholesterol would go up when you are eating a diet in which all of your energy comes from fat and LDL is not a cholesterol but only a transporter of the fat. If I’m only using fat for energy I’d be worried if there wasn’t very much cholesterol running around veins. There is absolutely no science that shows that higher cholesterol is detrimental to our bodies. Without sufficient cholesterol you will die. All of the cells in your body are made up of cholesterol therefore cholesterol is vital for proper human function. 80% of the cholesterol in your body is made by the body so you don’t need to eat it to have it.
  15. That’s fantastic.
  16. Eating good today. Smoked ribeye and eggs.
  17. That reminds me of one time I was on Quora and someone in the north east area of the states was boasting about their house dating back over 200 years to our colonial era. A person from Great Britain thought that was pretty special to have a house so young considering they were living in a house that was over 600 years old.
  18. It was a feast today. Smoked some ribeyes, venison burgers and venison German sausage. Along with that I added some venison summer sausage with jalapenos and cheese.
  19. until

    Try again next week Matilda. I would love to have you join us.
  20. Once again I find scripture in my morning devotional that I can apply to my carnivore lifestyle. 29 Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the LORD, 30 would have none of my counsel and despised all my reproof, 31 therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way, and have their fill of their own devices. 32 For the simple are killed by their turning away, and the complacency of fools destroys them; 33 but whoever listens to me will dwell secure and will be at ease, without dread of disaster." (Proverbs 1:29, ESV) Wow! Does anyone else see the parallels in wisdom? Turn away from God’s wisdom, truth and counsel and suffer the consequences. Turn away from the perfect human diet and suffer the consequences. One is spiritual and the other is physical but both have disastrous consequences.
