Carnivore changes continue @120 days.

[Scott F.]

I'm not where I want to be but really grateful for where I am right now. I have lost 60lbs/120 days (62 yesterday but there was a Hot Sauce festival near here and a lot of food trucks. I walked and walked til the sniff test said pull in. First trip was a rack of 8 large shrimp off the grill. The vendor was thrown for a loop when I bought the shrimp but declined on his "famous sauce" at the Hot Sauce festival. As we walked the sniff test pulled me over to a pork truck. I ate a pint of chopped pork BBQ. Again, the lack of sauce was damn near frowned upon, LOL)

The last few days I have noticed the three-to-four-mile walks are finishing up a few minutes early. I'm feeling better while moving at a better pace. Along the way I do squats and the second half of a burpee, I walk a few feet and then do ten push-ups. Today I did 8 sets on the walk for a total of 95 squats and 80 push-ups. It is actually getting easier. 

Still no need for the pain nor the inflammation medicine. The bloodwork last week was not all that bad. Of course, I wanted world class results after 100 days, but all things considered I'm rather happy with those results. 

I stumbled upon a doctor who seems more excited about my results than I am, even to the point she promised to be well versed for our next visit in Oct/Nov. 

My next step is to figure out to get to only red meat, salt and water for a stretch. The wife not being carnivore offers up a bit of a challenge but maybe with some pre-cooking/re-heating I will be able to figure it out.

Sort of using the board as a journal. My apologies for blabbing.

You really want to try Lion Diet for a while, eh?

I did that once for 30 days to get my potassium down, but outside of that, I personally love the variety. I'll still have the chicken and fish, but will have to find ways to fatten them up, lol.

@Scott F. You have more faith than myself for eating outside foods. 

Congratulations on your accomplishments thus far and sticking with this. 

[Scott F.]

Thanks.

I'm not sure if the 'feeling better on red meats' is associated with the autoimmune disease as the "red meat and water diet" was used int eh fifties for Multiple Sclerosis. Not sure, but I think I want to give it a try.

So many things smelled good and as I checked them out I passed on the ones with the sauces already applied. My sauces I used in the past had a staple of sugar/brown sugar. I passed. 

It sure smelled good though.

Your doing great Scott.
I thing going lion is a good choice if for no other reason as an experiment to see if it helps. Many people have had some great results going lion that carni just couldn’t do.
Good luck.
