"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_12981Enjoyed the video. I was working so I didn't get to participate. Maybe next week.
Couple good points about supplements and dairy. I drink milk on occasion and use a whey protein supplement.
The dairy is just like mentioned in the video, very individualistic. I do fine and have no issues. When I was losing some of the weight, I did have stalls and over time I linked the stalls to the milk. When weight loss was still a goal the milk was limited for me. I'm down somewhere between 90-95 pounds and drink a couple glasses a week, or so. Milk was designed to make us grow, and that it will. As babies and toddlers, it makes us grow up and as adults is can make up grow out, if that makes any sense at all.
I struggle to eat enough protein to hit the target for hypertrophy. I'm amazed at how much others can eat, not only per meal but per day. It is a struggle for me to eat 200 grams of protein (1 gram per pound of ideal lean body mass). If I eat a 14-16oz. steak with a couple thee eggs I am stuffed and that full feeling lasts for ~24 hours or so, somedays even longer. In order to hit the target, I have to eat another meal that I do not really want, which is another carnivore irony in itself. Prior to carnivore I could eat a 14-16oz steak with a couple-three eggs three times per day and do a desert with 4-5 Mountain Dews during the day. I suppose it was all the carbs and sugars, cravings and maybe even addictions, that was telling me to eat/telling me I was hungry. I simply don't feel comfortable eating large amounts of food. I sort of 'protein cheat' with a protein drink.
For me, this is working. I dropped 95lbs in 13 months. I have had some muscle growth but am much stronger (more plates).
Good video. I hate I missed participating.
