Going carnivore feels like magic for many, I was personally amazed at how much of that "hard to burn fat" I lost and how quickly my IBS disappeared. Almost like magic compared to all the calories in calories out crap everyone tries, miserable salads and undereating while doing exercise.
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

I've always wanted to ask this, while going carnivore would you ever consider eating fish? If not, is it just because of a lower fat content or are there more reasons I'm not aware of?
Fish is still considered carnivore, although some people can run into problems if they eat mainly fish due to the heavy metals they can contain.
I try to work in salmon and US Farm Raised catfish on a regular basis. I try to know where my fish comes from, so currently testing out a mail order Alaskan Fish Co. So far, it’s been great. A little expensive but good stuff.
