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_1751Hi gang,
Newbie here...I've been on a strict Carnivore diet for 11 weeks and 2 days. I'm 52, not overweight (5' 11", 145 lbs), just doing it to heal my gut issues such as severe acid reflux (with hiatal hernia), many food allergies/sensitivities, probable leaky gut, bad quality sleep for years, low energy, inflammation (carpal tunnel), etc. I dove right in from day one to just eating steak, ground beef, pork, chicken, bacon, eggs, and butter, with occasional seafood with my eye on getting plenty of animal fat. And I only drink water. For the first 2 months my digestion was fine, though I was very jittery, wasn't sleeping well because of my heart beating very fast during the night. At about the 10 week period, I started having daily diarrhea all of a sudden with no change in my diet as far as I remember. After hearing about someone with years of gut issues having trouble digesting fat, I thought that could be my problem. I cut down fat, started taking digestive enzymes, and cut out chicken and most pork as well, but am still having diarrhea and haven't been regular now for at least a week and a half (and still not sleeping well). I just read on a forum here that someone INCREASED fat in order to get regular. I really believe in the diet and really want it to work, but I'm so confused and I can't go on like this much longer since I'm losing most of the vitamins and minerals I'm taking in and feeling more and more run down by the day. Any suggestions?
