challenge "World Carnivore Month" January Challenge!

[Bob]

Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following...

1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt.

2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs. 

3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy. 

In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice.

IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based. 

We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk.  Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.

Lol! You gotta tie the knot by the end of the month

I'm still trying to work something out prize-wise, but I haven't gotten any email responses today. Probably because it's New Year's Day, so hopefully tomorrow.

Each post/reply in THIS TOPIC (the one you are currently viewing entitled "World Carnivore Month - January Challenge" will be an entry into the drawing. Back to back posts in this topic will be merged into one to avoid spamming/manipulation of the system.

I’m all in. 
cutting out all dairy and seasonings except for salt. 
Today I ate a half pound venison burger while deer hunting. Ironic? 
when I got home I ate a one inch slice of smoked rib roast and three ribs. One from the roast and two were pork ribs. Nothing else but salt and water today.

So here's my daily progress so far....

Jan 1 - 174.1 lbs
Jan 2 - 174.4 lbs
Jan 3 - 173.2 lbs
Jan 4 - 172.6 lbs

Typical eggs and breakfast meats for meal #1 each day. On January 1, I tried Beef Bacon for the first time. It was good, but not as good as traditional pork bacon.

I had a chicken and cream cheese dish on January 1, and overate plus it was late, thus the bump up in weight the next day. January 2 was filet mignon plus some pork rinds and chip dip that needed finished. January 3 was just seasoned ground beef.

Plus I have these awesome beef jerky's from Duma's Meats that I occasionally nibble on.

I am back at 135 after the holidays and my journey from the wagon to the ground. But this weight feels perfect.

My progress as of today. 
 

Jan Weight

168.4  168.2  167.8  168.8

As I’m typing I’m eating a couple of eggs and about 14 oz of rib roast. I will probably have to eat two meals today because I just don’t have time right now to eat a big meal but I’m standing strong on not eating any dairy. I made yogurt yesterday and as temping as it was to test taste the final product I resisted.
