Today was time to eat dinner, I had a 48 hour mini-fast. Water only.

I got 1000 kcal exercise today too,felt great all day. Hopefully this meal compensates for most of it. I did not calculate yet.

Not enough fat, too many carbs, I know. I even forgot to add butter... I just did not want bacon now.

Feeding your inner rabbit? lol. 
Brother that still way healthier than 90% of what Americans eat on a daily basis.

I don’t have much appetite today. I’ve got a cold that’s kickin my tail but I did manage to eat about a pound of venison steak with butter today.

Hope all is well.

I did the boring 'at work lunch' today. 3 mongo burger patties with a little cheese and salt.

I have not had cheese in a while so I am wondering if it will 'loosen' me up any.

Hello everybody,

Went lite carnivore a week before, just halving rice/chips and adding more meat to my meals. Started dreaming every single night.

First day on actual carnivore(1-31-2025), I immediately fell off the bandwagon. Had milk and magic mind with breakfast which was a hotdog and scrambled eggs. Lunch had leftovers from breakfast but got sugar cravings so ate ketchup with it. Then binged on some dried cranberries (cranberries, sugar, sunflower oil).

Decided that dinner would be unadulterated carnivore. Made pork chops and hard boiled eggs sliced in half and drizzled gravy(from a youtube comment under a carnivore video) over both. Made said gravy by melting a stick of butter on low heat, whisking 2 TB of cream cheese(it separated) and then vigorously whisking in some cold whole milk(closest thing to heavy cream I had on hand. Also this fixed the separation issue.) and a little parmesan cheese. Gravy was rich and delicious and helped spice up the hard boiled eggs. It was so good I didn't have any cravings afterward.

Had leftovers for breakfast the next day. For lunch I made some burger patties with salt and pepper with hard boiled eggs on the side and monterey jack cheese melted over both. I usually get exhausted after lunch but I feel good. Dinner is going to be steak and mozzarella sticks(with pork rinds).

Today I took my sister and niece out for BBQ food.
They love carbs so I gave them the carbs that came with my food).

I had the slow cooked ribs, brisket, sausages, chicken wings, and pulled pork.
Needless to say, this was a treat haha

Pic is from their social media, but pretty much what I ate.

Well that didn’t last long did it.  Lol. 
Welcome Kayla and congratulations on a good comeback later that evening. 
If I can give you some advice, plan ahead. Have some bacon already precooked waiting in the fridge that you can grab right quick when one of those cravings hit you. It’s possible that it’s your cheese that is causing those cravings because cheese has sugar in it in the lactose. If you feel that you really need to eat cheese then make sure it’s made from full fat dairy and not skim or part skim milk. 
You are doing good so keep up the good work. Stay committed to kicking that sugar addiction.

We did our first carnivore pizza last night. I thought it turned out really good. using chicken and eggs for the crust sounds odd when thinking of 'pizza crust' but it turned out really well. I expected it would have to be eaten with a fork but I was able to eat it by the slice like 'normal pizza'.

I added two eggs to a little over a pound of ground chicken with a handful of parmesan chicken. Mixed it together and flattened it out onto a butter covered toaster pan. We baked the 'crust' at 350 for ten minutes and then another three or four minutes on 450. It set for about five minutes and then added ground hamburger, ground sausage, parmesan cheese and then pepperoni. We made a little too many toppings for one pizza so I started over with parmesan, the rest of the meats topping it off with parmesan and pepperoni.

Sort of a double decker pizza or a super-duper "meat lovers". It tased really good and the fact the chicken and eggs made a 'pizza crust' was way cool.

I find that when I start the switch from a heroin/sugar diet to a ketogenic one, I can be somewhat ravenous!
The cravings result in me eating about 50+% more for 1-2 days.

For me, as long as what I eat is keto, then it's net positive because I'll be in ketosis in a few days, and reaping all the benefits. I find things like cold cut meats (salami, chorizo, prosciutto ham, etc.), Biltong, Droewors, etc. are fantastic for those transition days when cravings pop up.

I echo Geezy's encouragement...
Well done so far! Keep it up and kick that addiction!

It is pure addiction, for sure. To know this, is the most important step. A mental switch is needed as well.

Get well my brother, plenty of liquids, bring a nice size pot of water to a roaring boil, then let it simmer, it will vaporize the house, covid does not like heat.

Hi Angela. This was way back in December 2023, over a year ago, which was the last time I had Covid.

Yes, I love bulletproof coffee... You can reach out to me anytime and we can chat.

I'm just a little confused here. You quoted yourself and then responded to yourself. Who are you talking to?

I just want to make sure you account hasn't been compromised.

Queezy, how are you? I have been trying to fast and never succeeds; my appetite is poor and sometimes I go a few days without eating.

TicTok has this viral cottage cheese bread out, so I made it last night and it is good. It's not eggy at all, I put butter, cheese and garlic on it.  Have you heard of it?
