GM fellow nostriches, got a #carnivorediet update for you all. I am completing week 7 of carnivore and have lost 14 pounds. I’ve been hitting them gym 3-4 times a week doing weight training, as well as doing martial arts workouts twice a week. I eat twice a day (lunch and dinner) on Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat, and Sunday. I eat once (lunch) on Tues, Thur. I eat beef, chicken, pork, salmon, eggs, and cheese. I drink black coffee, as well as cold instant coffee with heavy cream with one pack of stevia. Occasionally I’ll drink a diet green tea, diet Dr Pepper, or sugar free sprite. I haven’t drank any alcohol or had any sweets since starting this journey. Benefits so far are…feel great, no afternoon crashes, and want to be active instead of sitting around.
If you’ve considered doing it, quit thinking and start doing. It will take a week or so to get your body adjusted on a dietary level and a couple of weeks for energy consumption (working out), but after that, it’s smooth sailing.
While I’m no expert, if you have questions, let me know and I’ll share my experiences.
Thanks to the friends that showed me the way and shared their experiences to help me get started. nostr:npub12gu8c6uee3p243gez6cgk76362admlqe72aq3kp2fppjsjwmm7eqj9fle6 nostr:npub1dd8vnrczuer7q9zqk3emhkf207hzrcqmd2nvvh3jmw22xcyjyuhqdfuvr6 nostr:npub1qqvt0m3nlvjnssmrn33w9yh7cuq2dx5nkz8wxax9hk5hrjdnj4jqz8cn3w nostr:npub1q6ya7kz84rfnw6yjmg5kyttuplwpauv43a9ug3cajztx4g0v48eqhtt3sh
That's great, my dude! I've got a stall, currently, but that's not unusual since I'm still ~75lbs down in less than a year.
I'm glad you're finding it beneficial enough to stick with it. I find it hard to keep it up when spending time with family. No one wants to believe me that I don't need vegetables. 😮💨
Yes weekends are the hardest for
me. It seemed like everyone started cooking brownies or cakes or buying snacks and putting them everywhere. Luckly I’ve always had pretty good Will power an been able to stop my vices when the time came.
