CARNIVORE DAY 387: I remember counting calories when I was younger. Thinking okay I can eat this tiny salad for dinner and I will stay under my calorie count for the day. Okay I have to do 90 minutes of cardio to burn off what I ate. Constantly obsessing over calories and how much I ate and burned off. Is this how we should treat ourselves and our bodies? NO! F*CK THAT!
I don’t track anything and that’s because I don’t need to. I eat till I am full and I am always feeling nourished and satisfied. If only I knew what I know now. You can eat all the meat, eggs, and animal based products to achieve the same physical results and not have to restrict yourself. But now, I don’t care how I LOOK. I care how I FEEL. My goal isn’t to be “thin”, it is to wake up everyday and feel my best so I can kick that day’s ass. I care about my mental health, feeling nourished, having physical and mental issues healed and having the fuel to workout when I want 🥩🥩🥩
It’s never too late… start gluten free… go low carb… go keto… go animal based… go carnivore. You have one body! Make sure you treat it kindly and give it all the food and nutrients you need. Later on you will be happy you did. Stop counting calories and start living 🥩🙏🏼🤍
For the next 30 days I am going to record what I eat on this carnivore diet daily so people can see what exactly goes into the diet. Typically, I try to keep things 90% carnivore and 10% keto. However, through the whole thing I will be in ketosis and will be showing the break down of my macro nutrients.
I don’t usually record what I eat because I don’t have to and honestly it’s a bit of a hassle. But I think it’s beneficial to see what others eat in a day following a zero to minimal carb diet like carnivore.
Carnivore is really going back to the way our ancestors used to eat. Meat was the most sought after food, for all of its nutrients and the greatest benefit, being full and nourishing their bodies. There wasn’t an obesity issue like we currently face here in the US today. Carnivore gets rid of all the processed food aka carbs, sugar, and goes back to a simpler time when there was less processed food/sugar readily available. As we have seen over the last 70 years, with the introduction of processed foods continually going up, so has the amount of chronic disease, obesity, heart issues, autoimmune disease, etc. However, we are eating less meat and more processed crap…. it’s NOT a coincidence. There is ton of literature out there for you to do your own research. This has worked for me and I looked into it and made the decision for myself. Once I saw the results and my bad symptoms went away, I knew this was the way to go for my body.
Nothing crazy to the carnivore diet here just an array of different meats, eggs, butter, some cheese products, and the occasional garnishing of grilled onions on a burger. However, I don’t eat vegetables. And guess what…. I poop just fine thank you. (More on that soon lol) If I ever do eat vegetables, they are typically cooked to avoid any stomach/GI upset that I have continuously had in my life from vegetables. (More on that later!)
But I want to be realistic… I’m not perfect at all with this diet. The month of July was full of moving and birthdays which brought on some not so low carb meals. But that’s OK. I’m still enjoying my life to the fullest. I aim for 90% carnivore and 10% keto. To be completely honest, I sometimes enjoy having those days of eating gluten or carbs to remind me of how shitty I feel when I do. Those symptoms that carnivore has relieved start creeping back and it’s painful. Not everyone needs to follow the same diet, I purely want to share my results and what I eat to provide more evidence and information to the carnivore diet.
So here we go…
Here is the macro breakdown and my food log from Monday August 3rd:
