I joined a workout center today. I’m just not getting much done with my dumb bells at the house. I do better when I have a larger range of equipment to work with and I’m more motivated when I have someplace to go. This gym is just 2.6 miles down the road from me so if I wanted to I could get a great walk in going to and from.

Unfortunately. Most people do not I t understand the GLP1 medication. Dr. Eric Westman recently stated in a video that a strong ( < 20 total carbs a day) Keto style diet would be more effective with less cost and side effects.
People want easy and fast results.

I tried them in 2018 and thought I was allergic to them because I had everyone of the reaction symptoms. Turns out it was the final straw in triggering my auto-immune issues. Probably had them off and on for the longest but never all of them at one time until I took three-four days of a statin.
I can't see me ever going that route again.

Calories are marketable is one of the more impactful statements near the end of the video.
I watched a video with a pro weight lifter who does a lot of science stuff with lifting and eating. He has a video where Atwater was debunked within a couple years of his work being published but by then the ball was rolling.
The word calorie now has an understood definition that is the furthest from its true meaning.
Considering impacts to labels and the food industry it would take billions and billions to make it correct.

Thought this might be of interesr. Started a new Libre 2 Plus Senior today. The graph shows an erratic pattern. It takes 12 to 36 hourb to settle itself out. Just the way it usually happens. The actual BGL is likely in between the highs and lows

Getting my exercise in first thing. Nice to have it done. My morning routine includes Tony Hampton's latest video at 7 AM I like his simple explanations. Started delaying my morning coffee today.

Rollin smoke today as I smoked up a couple of lamb rib racks.

I dodged a bullet when my former doctor tried to put me on one of those about 15 years ago but my insurance wouldn’t pay for it.

You never fully comprehend the term “Sheeple” until you raise sheep.

Best explanation I’ve heard yet.

Lol, I get it

I thank God almost every day that I am allergic to statins

Congrats.
Solid stretch.
Hoping the next 1000 are even better.
Scott

Wow, great. We need more making it to 1,000.

Ok. I got a plan. Exercise is increasing. It is a zero carb life as per usual. Coke Zero is still in the rear view mirror. So in January I used no Rapid Acting insulin abd cut the long acting insulin from 50 units a day to 25 units a day. Looking forward to more positive results in February. Just have to wait and see how it goes. Be well, may u heal.

Similar to Geezy's posts.
I don't have heart issues or a history or personal heart issues but I do enjoy reading about his past obstacles and how he hurdled them thru this way of eating (I'm trying to teach myself to not call it a diet).
Same with Bob with kidney information and Terry with MS (in which we do have similar paths).
Maybe my biggest interests are rooted in just how much this way of eating can help across the board coupled with just how far down the rabbit hole most everyone has went with a 'traditional' approach to eating. (the food pyramid, carb loading, fad diets, highly processed foods, seed oils, etc. etc.)
I guess it is the food related success stories.
Scott

Enjoy your successes when they come.
Human nature has its own setbacks for whatever reasons.
Celebrate the little wins, stack the little wins and bouncing back from setbacks "can" get easier.
Nothing wrong with a little excitement over a win.

Ty. Young fella. I trying not to get too excited. Be well

Can the three people on the planet that didn't see this coming, please raise your hand?
Scott

Carnivore, just my opinion here. Is not going to be over about 5% of the population. Why.? Human nature and Addiction. You can go off plan, you do not die by eatting one Snickers bar. The lack of that outcome says it all. Is why there are seat belt laws, interlocking systems and the like. The final straw is people do not know or understand cholesterol, insulin, and basic biology. They believe the old repeating messages.

I find this to be fascinating. I don’t know very much about diabetes and I don’t know anyone who is treating it with carnivore so you are our own case study.
Keep up the good work Paul.

Sorry that I am late to the discussion. I just saw this post.
I had a similar problem with insane cramps waking me up several times a night. And the thigh cramps were the worst. Drinking saltwater or an LMNT right before bed would sometimes help.
I eventually narrowed down my issue. It was a prescription drug that I was taking. I ceased taking the drug and I haven't had to take electrolytes nor have I had any cramps in over a year now.

Mustard works really well.
Pickle juice I am told works even better, or so I am told.
If I can choose between pickle juice and cramps, I will take the cramps.

I'm sitting around 174.4 pounds. I started the month at around 180. So I am happy with these results thus far.
The lowest I have ever seen since starting carnivore was 173.7. I'm sooo close, lol

Ty, at noon. Friday. Jan 30, it still going down. On 30% less insulin.
