  1. Welcome to our group David. We don’t judge here and are very accepting of everyone. As long as you are respectful we will be respectful in kind.
  2. I eat all the gristle on my steaks, ox tail when I can get it and eat a lot of clean pork rinds.
  3. 12 oz New York strip and a couple of 1/3 lb burgers all smoked.
  4. Keep up the good work Jay. We’ve got your back.
  5. Welcome back. I think you are approaching this from a good perspective. Some people need to ease into this lifestyle while others can just jump in with both feet. I can’t moderate so I’m a jump right in kinda fellow but I completely understand those that must go a little slower. In fact I envy those that can moderate. It means they are less addictive and have more control. You do what’s best for you and stay in touch so we know how it’s going.
  6. Welcome to our community. Congratulations on the improvements you’ve encountered so far. It’s hard to say why you might be experiencing some short term memory issues. Age, diet, sleep patterns? It could be several different things. Diet wise it could be you aren’t getting enough fat. Fat fuels the brain. You may not be eating enough and not meeting your nutritional requirements. Could dairy be the issue? Maybe cut the dairy for a month or two and see what happens. Maybe low on electrolytes. You haven’t mentioned your age. I’m 69 and my short term memory is not good. I don’t think it’s getting any worse but I don’t think it’s getting any worse. Poor sleep or not enough sleep can have ill affects on us in many ways and I believe memory is one of them. I hope you get it figured out soon. Have you experienced any other positive effects becoming a carnivore?
  7. I loved and respected Charlie Kirk as a Christian, as a conservative and as a communicator. He is a man who can never be replaced and I will miss him but I don’t grieve his death as I know he has his reward in heaven and I celebrate his eternal life serving Christ. I grieve for his family and for the millions that he influenced. Other than Jesus himself I know of no other man who influenced so many at such a young age. He was an inspiration and mentor to many.
  8. Even his own parents recognized him from the surveillance pictures. When you know someone as intimately as a family member does you can recognize them from just how they walk, stand and move. You don’t even need to see their face. There are so many people coming up with all of the conspiracy theories that are just stupid. People talking crap about stuff they don’t have a clue about. They just want to get recognized for saying something and then when they are shown up for the fools they are you don’t hear a peep out of them retracting what they said. The first one was the “It was a ‘Professional’ hit”. I know a little something about shooting, sniping and killing and I knew immediately that all of the idiots coming out in the beginning talking that nonsense we’re full of bovine excrement.
  9. Welcome to Carnivore Talk. I’m not quite understanding your comment “The last two years it has been reverting to numbers on my blood work”. Are you saying that your blood work numbers are reverting to what they were before you became a carnivore?
  10. It’s kinda like mechanics these days. It seems the more technical advancements we see the less they really know. Doctors can’t diagnose anymore without a machine telling them what to look at so it makes them lazy. There are very few real mechanics left anymore because all they know how to diagnose what wrong is to plug in a computer.
  11. As a carnivore the only carbs you “should” be eating are what’s going to be in the animal products you consume. There are carbs in meat and dairy. Dairy can be problematic for some people because of the amount of carbs in it. I found that while I was losing weight I had to be very strict with dairy and absolutely stay very strict in my diet with only animal fats, animal protein, salt and water. Now that I am at my maintenance weight I find that I can eat dairy again and if I felt like it I could eat a carby food occasionally but I just don’t have a desire to. I will confess though that I took a page from Bob’s book about what to consider as consumable food as a carnivore “If I can pluck it”. At my old house we have a jujube tree that puts out an abundance of fruit. While working on the place getting it ready to put on the market I was hungry and tired and it was going to be many hours before I would be able to eat so Bobs words popped into my head and I though…hmm, my ancestors wouldn’t have passed up this opportunity to eat fruit in season and I’m not trying to lose weight so let’s try this out as there was lots of ripe jujubes. I ended up eating several to no ill effects and I have done it several times since. So basically it comes down to where you are at in your journey and what you are trying to accomplish.
  12. Yes, I have. I had been dealing with for several years and it had got to the point that it was becoming debilitating. Every morning I would spend up to 4 hours curled up into a fetal position in severe pain. It felt like Freddy Kruger doing the iron claw on my guts. After the pain would subside the rest of the day was filled with loose bowels. My gastroenterologist had me on an almost straight grain diet. After 30 days of eating a strict carnivore diet all of my Crohn’s symptoms disappeared. My last appointment with my gastroenterologist I told her I was cured and she said “so the diet worked?” to which I replied “no, your diet was killing me. I started eating a carnivore diet of nothing but fat and meat and now I’m cured.” Her response was, with a haughty tone “well, I guess you don’t need me anymore!” I told her “ no ma’am, I certainly don’t.”
  13. That doesn’t sound like Alpha Gal to me.
  14. That’s so sad. It’s even sadder that their whole life focus is on food and not on Christ.
  15. Three smoked burger patties about a third pound each and four over easy eggs.
  16. That’s fantastic. It just keeps getting better
  17. They do. It’s the one I use when I need some electrolytes.
  18. I love talking (preaching) carnivore but I’ve learned to not give unsolicited advice and even then not to go into too much detail unless it’s asked for.
  19. Welcome to Carnivore Talk Helen. You have a great testimony to the power of eating a proper human diet.
  20. He was but started allowing some carbs in and is now completely off the rails. He’s paying the price for that too. He was once a good example for me and now I’m trying to be a good example for him.
  21. As a hunter who eats a lot of venison throughout the year I can tell you that it is definitely too lean. Now when we speak of our ancestors eating what they killed we must remember that they ate the whole animal not just the muscle meat. They ate almost all of the internal organs including the diet fat around the kidneys. They also ate many parts that are mostly fat such as the brains and the bone marrow. So unless you are killing your own game you are not getting what they ate. I do eat some of the organs from my kills but I don’t go to the same extent that our ancestors did. When I eat venison, Wild game or any lean meats I make sure to cook it in animal fats and eat it with plenty of butter.
  22. No hunter in his right mind ever addd up the cost per pound of meat. Ignorance is bliss in this regard. I just love to hunt and it’s my therapy. My success is not counted in how much game I take but how much satisfaction and enjoyment I get out of it. I love living off the land as much as possible. I dropped my deer lease this year because I bought a big enough place that I can now hunt my own land so there will be a savings there especially if I process my own meat. But yeah, game meat is the most expensive food there is.
