One more day left to my weight loss goal! I was hoping to lose 20lbs in 8 days but I couldn't crack 13. I broke my strict carnivore diet and had some vegetables. I checked their carb contents to make sure it's low. So I guess you can see i'm on the ketogenic diet instead. My goal is to continue eating mostly meat without sugars or other carbs. Eating salads is a bit tough because all the dressings come loaded with sugar.

I think part of the difficulty of maintaining strict carnivore for me is the constant other food around me. Traditional Japanese food that my wife makes for my kids usually contains sauces and therefore sugar. Rice is a staple of Japanese diet you cannot go a single day without seeing rice somewhere. Add to that the fact that my kids love rice, there's just no way around seeing all of the food I don't want to eat. It also sucks because I have to make my kids' breakfast and it's usually full of carbs but smells so damn good.

I have yet to add any type of exercise to my routine so that will be my next goal. So far I'm feeling great! I don't feel bloated anymore and feel a lot more clarity in mind and body. Already I'm feeling more alive and agile than before. My goal is to continue until I get into great shape and then assess how I want to do this long term.

Some things I noticed eating mostly meat:

1. I'm way more thirsty now, constantly needing to drink. I think I lack electrolytes.

2. I don't get as hungry as often. On carbs I would always have strong cravings to eat. I would also eat when I wasn't really hungry but it felt like that's what I needed. Now, I don't have those ups and downs of wanting to eat just because it's time to eat.

3. One meal a day was too much for me. It worked a bit, but then I realized I had energy dips that were easily fixed if I just had some more food.

I haven't done any other tests or anything. Not sure if that would be helpful since I've never really had any issues. My blood work has always been great.

Some things that do concern me about long term carnivore or keto is heart disease and gout. I was always under the impression that your arteries build up more plaque when you eat a lot of red meat. This has been ingrained into my mind since I could understand how the body works. Carnivores seem to say it's all bullshit. I don't know who to trust so I have to do my own research. If you know of any studies, please send them my way.

Same concern for gout. I have only been around 1 carnivore who seemed to have frequent gout attacks. I don't know if that's related to his diet but it would seem so. Then again, I don't know what else he ate... I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, any studies you may know about, anything to debunk that. Of course, I will do my own research because you know... don't trust, verify.

Best of success on your journey.

Configured nostr:npub1wxl6njlcgygduct7jkgzrvyvd9fylj4pqvll6p32h59wyetm5fxqjchcan to #zap ⚡️100 every time I react with 💯 because that’s how I roll.

That’s a cool option that nostr:npub1wxl6njlcgygduct7jkgzrvyvd9fylj4pqvll6p32h59wyetm5fxqjchcan has to set different emojis as a trigger.

Awesome music album for getting a good graphic design flow goin' on!

Also meet quite a few #Bitcoin peeps on bsky.

Also offer to send $5.00 worth of #BTC to anti-Bitcoiners, but so far no takers.

And cool to be able to send a few Sats to other Bitcoiners 😎

Great photography tips. nostr:note1krl6rma4l9rmvzvsr00ss9kefvpq3x0dram0f9tk4j02pn73qazsqyqn0j
