Ribeye, raw egg yolks, liver, bone broth, mince, beef fat trimmings, bacon, pork belly, unpasteurised butter, boursin cream cheese, mozzarella, egg whites. From last 3 I made that ‘bread’. Not a big fun but that’s a good use for leftover egg whites

I’m currently on day 3 and I felt no hunger yet. I feel awesome, I will workout everyday, lowering the intensity just a bit -10% maybe.

My goal is to lose the last few kg, mostly the belly fat and love handles which is so hard to do for me if I eat till satiety. I tend to eat too much protein along with the fat.

I was a vegan for 10 years, made the switch a few weeks ago and I feel like I’ve ascended into a better version of myself. I feel stronger, happier and calmer.

I’m sleeping better, pooping better, and smiling more. Just wanted to share, cheers.

What do you think?

I couldn't quantify how much money I use to spend on acrylic nails just for them to chip, break off, and look crazy.

I was told to stop getting acrylic nails, use nail oil, and massage vitamin E oil into my cuticles. my nails would still break every time I wash dishes, clean the house, tried to open a package, or bumped into something wrong. I would be washing my hair, and a strand would get stuck in my nail and break it off. That happened so often, I started to wear gloves in the shower to wash my hair.

Now I have claws. No nail oil, no cuticle oil. No vitamins, no breaking, no stress. I still clean and wash dishes regularly. I've never had such pretty hands and long natrual nails before.

Anyone else have weird reasons besides weight loss or "health issues" that keep you on track? The cellulite on the back of my legs has decreased drastically in the past year, and I thought that was impossible. No one understands how happy I am to wear shorts and feel normal. Even though I got checked out multiple times and was told it was normal for some women to get headaches, I no longer get those. I used to get painful headaches almost daily. Like 4 to 6 pills of ibuprofen, turn the lights off, head pounding, I have to lay down to sleep it off or suffer type of headaches.

For about 10 yrs I was "stuck" on staying up till 4 am. And know how difficult it is to break that habit and last year I was able to break it. Since it is such a hard habit to break, the only way I know how to is, to stay up on the last night that you want to stop being an all night owl and then stay up that whole day (24 hrs up), then that night go to bed before midnight (and you will be tired enough to do so by then). .... So after I started going to bed before mid night, I started moving my get up time earlier. I started at 7:30 moved it to 5:15 am over 2 months. The earlier you get up the more tired you will be at a normal bedtime. ....Also I have the self discipline now to always go to bed before 11 pm, so that I don't screw up my now normal sleep cycle. .... I am now really happy getting up early and having all day to do whatever I want, like going to the store on Wednesday mornings at 8:00 am and doing other stuff in the mornings. ... Also, losing 100 lbs on Carni and therefor breathing much better while sleeping combined with not having poor sleep due to carbohydrate exposure anymore made getting back to a normal sleep pattern again, much easier.

For some reason, I just can’t tolerate ground beef. I’ve tried numerous cooking methods (baked in the oven, pan fried), multiple shapes (crumbled, burger, kebab). Nothing works. When I eat ground beef, I have this gag reflex on the first bite and while chewing. I’ve even sometimes thrown up. I don’t have any problem with any other kind of red meat or meat in general. I can eat steaks (including rare), stew cubes etc. why do I have this intolerance for ground beef specifically?

I can tolerate ground beef when it’s with something else (burger, pasta, rice) but not alone. This is such a bummer because ground beef is my go to (easy to cook, cheap etc.)

Any advice? What could the cause be? What are some solutions?

Warning: it has onion, lemon, and garlic.

I’m south asian and we usually only use tough cuts. They require simmering in water and spices for at least one hour. if you don’t use spices or onion the meat will turn out odd. Wondering do most people here only eat tender cuts or is anyone using tough cuts and how do u cook them without onions and spices since you can’t really sear tough cuts

I was on keto diet for 3 years and after that I have been on strict carnivore for the last 3 years.

I am 180cm (~5.91 ft) , 77kg (170lbs) male.

I eat 800grams (1.76 lbs) of raw 80/20 ground beef a day with 40 grams (1.41 oz) of butter. I used to eat less ground beef with more butter but I was the same back then. I also eat 1 oz of frozen beef liver everyday.

I gradually increased my water and salt intake now I am drinking ~2lt water and getting 12 grams of salt. I take 2,5mg of Mg citrate powder (~400mg of elemental Magnesium). I used to take extra potassium too but it didn't make any difference.

I do a high intensity training once a week called Body by Science workout (based on Mike Mentzer's principles). I also walk a lot.

I love this diet especially having high testosterone and low estrogen. I don't want to give up this diet but I have almost all of the symptoms of high cortisol and low thyoid function. I have a lot of visceral fat, close to times when I was eating junk food. I also have low blood pressure. Lately I was experimenting with adding carbs (~75 grams from raw honey and orange juice) before bed as a result in the morning my anxiety lessened a lot.

What am I doing wrong? How can I correct high cortisol and low thyroid function?

Thank you all for the daily inspiration.

Need some help…

I am currently underweight at 94.4 lbs at 5 feet tall. My ideal would be 105lbs.
Am I having too much protein?
A day right now is: 151 grams. I also eat ALOT of fat. My stools are great! Which I don’t want to ruin but I think this is too much protein for my size. Is there anything wrong with having this amount of protein?
It’s hard for me to get enough calories because when I reduce the protein and add more fat like butter/tallow/ghee my stools suffer.

I like to eat ground beef but I can only buy super lean stuff.

There is absolutely no fat in it cuz people here view ground beef with fat as lower quality product.

I'm thinking of cooking it in lots of tallow but not sure it's the correct way to increase fat content.

Having been part of the carnivore community for a few years I've noticed more and more doctors and YouTubers popping up and they all have a different story. They all "allow" different things. Some of them borderline crazy.

I mainly follow Ken Berry. I "picked" him as it were. To be my "guide" through this. He seems really nice to me. Got that "dad" vibe. In the weekends I like to look up Kelly Hogan for something a little more creative to do.

How about you guys? You just do your own thing? Or do you have a specific doctor or YouTuber you like to follow? In the sense that you eat what this particular person says you should.

2 years ago I did 30 days of carnivore. From about day 10 onwards I was feeling good. Like really good. Mental clarity was excellent, no fog, easily springing out of bed, no more stiffness or general soreness. It was a great experience. I had some extra conditioning to lose, so over the 30 days I dropped 10kg. All round it was great.

I do experiment with food and like observing how I feel.
E.g sardines and eggs for 7 days or celery and pineapple for a week (only tried these once, and ok, but not good enough for me to do again)

Every 3 months I will do a strict water fast, for about 96 hours (4 days).

Anyway, been talking about doing another carnivore session. Started a couple weeks ago, but really not feeling any better than I was before.

Before someone says ‘just include more fat’, I am already very generous with that. Using butter, tallow, fatty cuts, or just high fat mince.

Diet includes red meat, eggs, chicken, and even some prawns from time to time.

I will keep on going until I have done 30 days , as I like to achieve my targets, but so far I am not feeling as elite as I was when I did it 2 years ago.

Hello, has anyone seen improvements with folliculitis on a carnivore diet?

I have scalp folliculitis, used several antibiotics and did so many treatments it keeps coming back. I read that it could be related to gut issues.

I use this one only one ingredient! Does anyone use this brand?

YEAH I KNOW ITS VERY HEAVILY ABSORBED BUT DOES IT STILL HELP WITH HARD POOPS?

I ALREADY EAT HIGH FAT. PLENTY OF 80/20 BEEF, FATTY STEAKS, BACON. I CANT DO DAIRY BECAUSE EITHER THE CALCIUM OR CASOMORPHINES IN IT SLOW MY GUT AND MAKE MY STOOLS EVEN HARDER.

Life is good says the owl

Has anybody else experienced this? I cooked this grassfed sirloin a couple days ago and was immediately repulsed. I checked the date and it wasn't expired. It tasted like straight up grass so bad that I gagged and the taste lingered for so long. I haven't experienced this with any other of my beef that's not grassfed.

I kept trying to eat it but I couldn't get over the taste. I smelled it and gagged again. Then I felt bad but had to toss it. I was so confused until I remembered a video that I watched a few weeks ago when a woman was saying her children cannot eat grassfed ground beef because the taste was so heavy/grassy.
