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.
Caffeine that is. I was tired of having that one last thing that controlled me (besides the gubment and my wife) and decided when I ran out of tea that would be it, no more. I am drinking a cup of 50/50 bone broth and water with butter an MCT oil blended in for a nice frothy hot drink.
Well that was two days ago and I’m starting day three today.
It really hasn’t been that bad so far. The first day it seemed to take a couple of hours to get me eyes to pop open but I didn’t have any cravings that I couldn’t handle.
Day two it was easier to wake up and didn’t have any noticeable cravings. This morning I’m tired. I woke up this morning at 1:30 am and couldn’t go back to sleep. I’m going to stand strong but I’m really wanting some caffeine right now.
On top of that I’ve got to do a bunch of fence work done today as well as a bunch of other stuff.
It’s gonna be a rough day but I will “endeavor to persevere”. (Name that movie for bonus points)
