March Motivation Challenge! - Enter to WIN!
"Marching into March with Much Motivation"
For this months challenge, we are going to support each other in our efforts to get up and move. Spring is in the air. The weather is getting better. Get out there and MOVE! Go for walks, hike some trails if they aren't too muddy. Or just make a goal to get on the treadmill or lift some weights more than usual throughout the month. Get in the habit now, and we just might have beach bodies when summer officially hits, lol.
Just like before, 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.
The March drawing will be for a 4-pack of Carnivore Bars!

February Fasting Challenge - Enter to WIN!
Today is February 1st and marks the first day of "National Fasting February" - and yes, this is a thing. Google it!
For this month's challenge, we are going to support each other in our efforts to practice various forms of fasting throughout the month. The type of fasting you wish to do is entirely up to you. We are going to encourage INTERMITTENT FASTING, that is to put it simply, skipping a meal so that you are only eating 2 meals a day instead of the traditional 3 meals a day. The goal is to enjoy these meals within an 8 hour "feasting window" and then no food in the remaining 16 hours "fasting window" (in which 8 of those hours you should be sleeping).
An example is waking up at 7am, but waiting until 11am-noon for your first meal, and then having dinner at 6-7pm for your 2nd meal. Other people prefer to eat a breakfast, then a mid-day lunch, and skip dinner.
If you want to throw in a 24, 48, or 72 hour fast just to show off by all mean do so, lol.

"World Carnivore Month" January Challenge!
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.-

comment_11215Good morning all.
I haven't checked in for a while as I've been working none stop so I thought I'd drop by and say hi. I'm exactly 1 month and 10 days into my strict carnivore on a tight budget and no alcohol life. I know this because my quit drinking app has just sent me a congratulatory message with cartoon party poppers and balloons.
It's all going very well with only the occasional "nice cold beer" urge which I just ignore. I've noticed that my appetite has changed over the last week or so. Initially I was eating three large meals a day with great pleasure but that's becoming less. I've started skipping breakfast because I'm just not hungry and also what i want to eat is changing. Ground beef is slowly becoming a bit of a chore and I don't feel like downing the fatty juice which at the start i loved. If I never see a sardine again in my life I'll be a happy man and even buttery scrambled eggs are a bit tiresome. Something I imagined would never happen.
If I were a rich man I'd do steaks all day, every day but alas, I am not. I appear to have kicked myself out of ketosis according to my dubious and slightly beyond their sell by date pee strips which might have to do with a bag of pork rinds I inhaled recently. I only realized in hindsight that they had been cooked in seed oil but I don't know whether to trust the old pee strips. I feel great but my weight loss seems to have plateaued a bit.
I'm wondering what to do about, boredom would be too strong a word but the sameiness of the diet. I've been completely avoiding cheese. Pork and chicken is always a pleasure.
But, getting to my cravings question. I've had next to zero urges over the last weeks. Don't need veges or sweet stuff or junk. However, the last few days I've had an overwhelming urge to eat honey dew melon. Really strong. I can taste it it's so strong. I'm starting to wonder if the old bod is trying to tell me that there is something I'm missing.
Either that or I'm pregnant which would come as a bit of a shock considering that I'm a middle aged man with a big beard.
Anyway, Just wanted to get the communities take on it.
Hope you all have a great day.
