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_11681I hit the year mark on the 8th of this month tipping the scales at 213 that morning. I weigh just about daily but no longer looking for the weight loss in the numbers. It is almost habit now.
A couple things factored. There was an incredible sale on rib eyes at the grocery store, the chuck rolls were on sale as well and as my luck would have it had just done a meat run the week before. I also sort of made a shift in the gym lifting somewhat heavier and the intensity increased (volume the same, maybe slightly less). I got back on the kick of trying to hit in the ballpark of 200 grams of protein per day. One big rib eye is about all I really feel like eating in any give day. From about the 6th of May til the night of the 11th I ate a 8-10oz rib eye mid to late morning with 4-6 eggs. That evening, I followed it up with another 14-16oz ribeye. A couple three of those nights I managed to push down another 8oz steak to push the protein content up. With each setting I added butter and some tallow.
I don't really feel any different this morning than last week. The workouts are going fine, the walks are still going good and the energy levels are the same. I am not seeing much difference in any of those areas.
However, I tipped the scale this morning at 221lbs. 8+ pounds in four days. This is the second time I gained 8-9 pounds in a week or less when I ate more than I wanted/more than I needed/more than I should trying to hit a target.
This week I am headed into a fast over my three night shifts. I am sure the numbers will move back a tad.
Weight gain is possible on carnivore. I am sure I have added some muscle but nowhere near 8 pounds worth and I have not moved my belt in or out over the past week.
Feeling good so I am not all that concerned with the numbers but I do wonder where the weight is hiding. LOL
