Welcome on board! I check my blood ketones and glucose once a month, ketones are around 1,5-2,0 and glucose 4,8. Euro numbers. In February I had 3,0-4,0 ketone readings I've been on keto(vore)for six months now,I get max 10 g of carbs daily. I used to count macros for a while,now I just know I'm around 75-80% fat energy. If I go to strict carni I may get surprise toilet needs. Total carni also makes me lose hunger altogether, almost like losing appetite. Very little salad stuff seems to be enough to avoid toilet surprises and I enjoy food better,too. I have not been hungry in six months, I sometimes have to pay attention so that I'm eating enough. I did some fasts earlier but no more. Too little food is not good for me, even though fasting feels great. I have no reason to limit my calorie intake,rather the other way round is better in terms of weight loss and everthing. Most of meat available is lean here in Finland. Hard to keep fat % high with meat alone. I eat tuna in olive oil, feta, lots of fatty sausages. Bacon with eggs every day... Coffee is a mild toilet catalyst for me. But I have a mug or two every day, I add butter,coconut oil and cream. I did Atkins in early 2000's, then the name became Low Carb, now it's Keto(vore). I've been on and off during the years,mostly on but after heart problems (got an attack and a stent, also have a failure and cont. afib) the docs got me scared and I ate normally for a while. I gained 30 kilos and became very weak. I was suggested an open heart bypass surgery which I rejected. Now I'm off statins, cut 75 % off BP meds , lost 25 kg, can even run.... much stronger than in the last years. I can do things that make me sweat without my heart warning me now. All this progress has happened after I started keto(vore) six months ago. This is how much "salad" I had today. This small amount helps me have normal toilet practises. Oh,I have no gallbladder,that may or may not matter. I hope you can get this going in a nice and relaxed way. O
In this video we interview Geoff Klein, a 68 year old gentlemen from Texas who has been doing the carnivore diet since May of 2023. He used to have several metabolic issues, as well as Chrohn's, and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The paroxysmal atrial fibrillation would land him in the ICU at the hospital several times each year. But today, thanks to the healing power of meat and the carnivore diet, he no longer suffers these setbacks, and in fact, his cardiologist has taken him off ALL his heart and blood pressure medications.
