On September 13, 2018, I began my ketogenic journey. I was at the end of my metabolic rope and keto was my last ditch effort to save myself from a poor diet, poor health and from myself. I honestly didn't care if I lived past the age of 50 because every day was full of depression, inflammation and exhaustion and I was tired of all of it.

Here I am 6.5 years and nearly 1200 steaks later, with over 1500 miles of running, a marathon, 15 half marathons, 3 years in the gym behind me, a completely different person that I can barely recognize in the mirror.

Life-changing just doesn't quite cover how big an impact that choice back in 2018 has meant to me. Soul-changing is more like it.

There is no destination on a meat-based diet. There is only the journey.

Chunky Carl.

Morning Nostriches!

Snowy day today. Went out to get some morning sun & it was so cloudy that I don’t think it was too successful. That’s ok. I’ll try again tomorrow.

Loan mine is dead right now. Hoping that it picks up for reals as of March

Morning Nostriches!

Took the day off of the loan mine to spend the day with hubs since hey gets the day off for Amish Old Christmas & we’re sitting in the living room playing on our phones. Need some coffee so I can wake up & be more interesting I think
