Hello Everyone, Just finish a little bout of crying and feeling lost and defeated.  I'm hoping to find some light at the end of my "fat" tunnel, but keep getting side blocked by my body.  I started the Carnivore diet Sunday 5/26 by suggestion of my awesome husband.  His motivation was to help me overcome my constant acid reflux and agonizing heart burn.  By Tuesday and had no stomach issues at all!!  YAY!  I haven't taken any tums all week!!  (normally 3 to 4 a day, plus my middle of the night ones). However, last night (I had slow roast turkey breast and bacon). I had HORRIBLE pain and a lump by my gallbladder.  Now when i try to search up healing a gallbladder, everything says eat, vegetables, fruits and fiber?!?!?!?!  and Stay away from FATS!!!   ya, not to Carnivore doable!  Any suggestions?

I am guessing you are since I can see it.

 

So glad you are stepping out on faith to heal your body! I find that slow cooked meat doesn't agree with my digestive track. Also I know a lot of influencers promote omad, but I find that trying to eat enough in a small window also doesn't agree with me. I fast when I'm not hungry and eat when I am hungry but I try not to overdo it or I get nauseous.

Welcome Kristin. We are glad you joined us.
You are very early into your new lifestyle of eating so your body is going through some transitional changes as it learns to become fat adapted. If your gall bladder is acting up it could a medical issue that you need to see a doctor about.
Check out this video from Dr. Berry about gall stones.

@KristinI was just thinking about gallbladder attacks that happen after years of restricted fat. The bile gets sludgey in there and you may want to consider gradually changing, depending on how you ate before. Dante Ferrigno has some videos where he has theorized about this. If you haven't watched FerrignoFreedom, I do recommend his YouTube.

Welcome aboard! Once you have just ONE post approved, you're out of moderation. I keep the spammers at bay this way. You just have to wait until I've checked the site, since I'm the only one with the keys.... for now, lol.

Well, if you don't consume fat, the gall bladder won't get much use. BUT, this is why you might have gall stones after all. You may need some time. As you you increase your fat intake, the gall bladder will ramp up production. If Geoff posted the video I think he did, Dr. Berry explains it very well.

    • March Motivation Challenge! - Enter to WIN!

      Bob posted a topic in Carnivore, Ketovore, Keto, & Low-Carb Support,

      "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!

      Every Reply in this topic will count as an entry for this month's prize drawing. Back-to-back posts count as 1 entry as a counter to spamming.

      Attending Monday night zoom also counts as a bonus entry. Being a supporter of our YouTube channel also gives you an entry.

      Let's keep our resolutions going strong!

    • February Fasting Challenge - Enter to WIN!

      Bob posted a topic in Carnivore, Ketovore, Keto, & Low-Carb Support,

      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. 

      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. Every Reply in this topic will count as an entry for this month's prize drawing.
