Geezy

Our zoom meanings are every Monday at 7:00 pm central time. here is the link to get in on it. You’ll have to download load the Zoom app and then follow the address Bob has posted in the link.

Around 11:00 I fixed a three egg omelette with smoked lamb and Irish Swiss cheese. While that was cooking I put 6.5 pounds of fatty chuck roast in the crock pot. I knew that omelette wasn’t going to hold me all day. It turned out great.

Good luck.

This is what I’m using right now. My wife picked it up for me at one of the health food stores in my area. It’s not the cleanest in the ingredients and I’m going to see if I can find something cleaner but if not I’ll just stick with it. I was using about a one teaspoon three times a day in my water. I have different brands of salt that I use depending on what I’m doing with it. For cooking and to put in my water I use Redmonds. For certain dishes like omelets and gravies I’ll like my truffle sea salt. Very tasty. For putting on my meats I like Maldon’s Flaked Salt. It’s my favorite. Since your numbers are in the normal range then I wouldn’t worry about it and just keep doing what you’re doing as long as it’s working for you. Don’t concern yourself with asking too many questions. That’s what we’re here for, to help each other out and I’m happy to help any way I can.

I did ok. I was able to stay motivated to get moving. I was faithful to get my walking in except on really bad days. I didn’t hit the weights as often as I should have but it’ll get better as I get into a better routine. I like that idea.

Al Pastor and eggs today.

Yeah I’ve been watching him for a while now and I like how he explains things so well.

I’m just taking a magnesium Glycinate 350 mg. I don’t know for sure if it’s helping my heart or if it’s just the natural progression of this WOE but I’ve been noticing that what few palpitations that I was experiencing have diminished even more. When I first started on carnivore I was taking LMNT and then later on I switched over to KetoChow. It was the KetoChow I was on when my potassium got so high. It might have been high on the LMNT but I hadn’t gotten a blood test while on it. When people talk about taking an electrolyte supplement I like to tell them to make sure they really need it. Get a blood test done and find out if you are deficient. Potasium can also cause you to lose sodium and mine was low but after stopping KetoChow my potassium levels dropped to normal and my sodium came up to normal. My sodium always stays on the low side of normal do I liberally salt my food and even put some in my water when I’m going to be working in the hot Texas sun all day. Anytime you think you’re ready I can give you Dave’s email and Kerry’s email so you can contact them. When I did my first interview I didn’t think I really had much of a story to tell. After all, there’s so many great and miraculous stories out there in the carnivore community but I finally got the nerve up to contact Dave and I was surprised by the comments how much my story resonated with so many people. We often think that we are insignificant in this world and for the most part we may be but God will put us in a position to touch someone else’s life if we allow Him to. We have to always be ready when He does that whether it’s online or on the street. We never know who we might touch so we must always be ready with a kind word and wisdom from our Lord. Consider joining us in our weekly Zoom meanings on Monday night. It would be nice to have you join us.

Excellent Scott.

Our Lord places us where He needs us when we are in need. What magnesium are you taking. I ask because there are so many different kinds of magnesium and some are not absorbable. Be very careful of the potassium. I was taking an electrolyte supplement and about six months into my carnivore journey I had a blood test and my potassium levels were into the danger zone. Bad enough for a normal person but more so for someone who has heart disease. Too much potassium can cause the heart to stop. Dairy is a very addictive substance for me as well. I try to moderate it as much as possible but sometimes it gets the better of me and I have to take a month off of it. I will be putting you on my prayer list. May God bless you.

I can’t eat bird without lots of butter.

I usually have some pickled quail eggs in the fridge. Great little snacks.

Articles like this just tick me off. They don’t detail the study so there’s no way of knowing how it was conducted or what biases there may be and most of those “studies” are far from scientific. Then the article, like so many of them, puts out some positive information but turns right around and has to put out a caveat of lies. Gee, let’s not bother to actually show the real studies that show that cholesterol isn’t a factor in cardiovascular health and that meat is so nutritionally dense that we get all of the nutrients we need for proper health. None of us are guaranteed a certain amount of days Yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. James 4:14 ESV So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. Psalm 90:12 ESV What’s important is that we fuel our bodies with the most nutritious food possible and refrain from eating anything that we shouldn’t so that we can obtain optimal heath and our bodies will take care of everything else. I have no idea if by eating carnivore that I will live longer, there may just be too much damage, but I do know how good I feel and I will enjoy what life I have left feeling good. Beats being miserable. When I started being a carnivore I was 66 years old and felt like I was 86 just waiting to die in misery. Today I’m 68 and feel like I’m 48 with a life and future ahead of me.

If you’re interested get with Bob and have him interview you. Im sure Kerry Mann would like to interview you as well. you can contact him at *****@*****.tld Then there’s Dave Mac. He’s always looking to interview people. *****@*****.tld

I don’t think that’s high at all for what you are getting. We raise our own but we have to count in the feed that goes into them. My wife keeps track of that but I don’t want to know what it is, 🙈Ain’t none of it cheap but like you said, you know what you’re getting. I eat more than a pound a day so that would last me a year.

You should tell your story. There are others out there that could probably benefit from it

It really boils down to what the body can tolerate or what your mindset is. Many people will reintroduce certain things one at a time to see how it affects them. If there’s a change then they know it’s forever banned but if their body doesn’t react then they can keep it. My only indulgence is jalapenos. I love jalapeno poppers and will eat a few a couple of times a year. They don’t bother me but I don’t eat them very often either. I’ve also reintroduced some seasonings but again , sparingly. For me it’s all about the mindset. I’m 99% pure because I came from a really bad place and have no desire to ever go back there again. I want nothing but nutritious food going into my body. I don’t see the point of eating something that my body doesn’t need on a regular basis. We all have different physiology’s with different needs so we have to follow our own path in this journey.

You don’t need the book, you just need to listen to yourself, lol! You really have a complete understanding of how this works. The book does sound like it does a good job of putting things in perspective.

Yes my name is Geoff. I'm wondering if your doctor took you off of the metoprolol too soon. Mine took me off of it because my BP was getting dangerously low but it’s my understanding that it’s best to slowly ween off of heart meds. You might need to start taking a half dose or a full dose every other day. I was taking a full dose aspirin every evening before I went to bed but I’ve stopped taking it as well. You might look into taking a magnesium supplement such as Magnesium Glutamine. Magnesium is very beneficial for the heart. Yes I do dairy but limited. I go through about a stick a day of butter and I’ll have heaping tablespoon of my homemade yogurt everyday. On the rare occasions when I eat cheese I try to make sure it’s made from whole milk.

Great job Merlin.

Keep us updated on what your doc has to say Thomas.

I quit coffee and went to tea and then about a year ago I quit the tea. Turns out I never really needed it. I wake up just fine now with no stimulants.

Good job Thomas. It was great meeting you tonight. Hope to see more of you on the Zoom calls.

If anyone is interested I did an interview with Kerry Mann the other day.
