"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.-

I ate 5 or 6 pork shops Friday night about 8PM and last night around 2AM I ate a handful of beef jerky. Technically, I broke it then but will not eat again until tomorrow night.
The first 24 hours was a dry fast and then water fasting til tomorrow.
It is totally weird, or maybe I am weird, but I get the fact I can lose a few pounds here and there when fasting. I also understand there is metabolic benefits to allowing the body, for no better words, to catch up and reset. But as of late the weight and the metabolic health are more like bonuses to fasting. I am fasting now for no more reason than how good I feel from 24 hours and beyond.
I'm no spring chicken at 56, a hard 56 at that with most of those years eating a dumpster diet and working was the only working out I was doing. This past weekend I ate Friday night and I dumped 5500kgs of re-process material. That consists of tipping over a 50 kilo drum (a little over 100 pounds), lifting the back and dumping the powder into a process tank. The plant was well over 100 degrees til the early morning when it dropped to the mid-90's. I didn't eat for 24 hours and repeated another 5500 kilos on Saturday night and did the same last night soon after 48 hours of fasting. On Saturday morning I stopped by the gym a lifted for just about an hour, leg day on top of that.
Here I am on Monday morning with a boat load of energy and don't feel like I am going to sleep much today. Sort of awake and ready to do stuff. Feels good but sort of sucks knowing I have to do 12 more hours tonight.
Babbling til bedtime but carnivore, fasting and resistance training has been a life changer for me, and at times I would even say a life saver. That might be a stretch but at times I sort of feel that way.
