SWEET ON KETO

My 4 day / 96 hour fast is over. I actually gained weight during this fast. WTF? But overall lost 3 pounds in 4 days. Let me tell you about it.

Chill and a little sleepy, but happy, on DAY 2 of 4 DAY of my extended WATER FAST. I did a salt water

I’m water fasting for 96 hours or 4 days. Why would I do this? What does it feel like? Well, I’ll tell you all about it for the next 4 days.

HOORAY! It’s Day 30, the final day of my 30-day Carnivore Diet Experiment... or is it? I lost 11 pounds in 30 days and I discuss how the diet has changed me, the positives and negatives, my tips for those who want to try the diet and what’s next for me.

Day 29 of my 30-day Carnivore Diet Experiment. Still feel good since I’ve eliminated dairy but the scale is not moving. I talk about what may be next after this experiment is over.

Day 25 - Carnivore Diet 30 day Experiment. Getting Real with myself and the mistakes I’ve been making. #dairyisscary

Day 24 of my 30 day carnivore diet experiment and I’m having doubts and still struggling with adjusting to this style of eating.

Day 22 of my Carnivore or Zero Carb Diet 30 day Experiment. I’ve lost 12 pounds in 22 days and in this episode I discuss the strange, unsettling discovery that the carnivore diet is a political anti-vegan weapon for some. #triggered lol

Day 20 - Carnivore Diet 30 day Experiment. I’ve lost 11 pounds in 20 days. Tonight I’m a little feeling better and discuss why (I think) I felt so bad this week.

Day 18 Carnivore Diet 30 day. Experiment. I’ve lost 12 pounds. Tonight I’m tired. I haven’t been feeling good at all and it sucks.

Day 15 of my Carnivore or Zero Carb Diet 30 day Experiment. I’ve lost 10 pounds in 15 days. Today I also discuss Days 13 and 14, the dangers of salad, why I almost quit this zero carb carnivore keto experiment, and my missing sweet tooth.

Day 12 - Carnivore Diet 30 day. Experiment. I’m down 7 pounds! Tonight I’m recapping my day and discussing the cost of a meat only, zero carb, diet.

Day 10 & 11 - Carnivore Diet 30 day Experiment. I’ve lost 7 pounds in 11 days! Tonight I talk about feeling tired, headaches, attempting to quit caffeine and the loo (briefly, thankfully).

Day 9 - Carnivore Diet 30 day Experiment. And also Day 6, 7, and 8. I’ve lost 5 pounds in 8 days. Tonight I’m talking about drinking alcohol on a low carb, zero carb, keto or carnivore diets, eating out at restaurants and the key to skipping popcorn at the movies.

Day 5 - Carnivore Diet 30 day. Experiment. I’ve lost 5 pounds in 5 days! Tonight I’m expressing my (most likely) irrational fear that this zero carb meat diet is harmful and I also talk about why I think I’m not in ketosis... and cooking frozen steak

Day 4 of my Carnivore or Zero Carb Diet 30 day Experiment - where I discuss my concerns about not eating vegetables.

Day 3 was a challenge and was odd but I’m still excited about this carnivore experience. I can feel my body adjusting and it’s a little unpleasant and I just know you can’t wait to hear all about that.

I’ve decided to experiment on my body because I’ve gained back all of the weight from doing keto earlier in the year and I am going to try eating nothing but meat for the next 30 days and try the Carnivore/Primal/Zero Carb thing - and invite you to follow me as I share the raw truth of what this experience is like on a day to day basis.

What other people think of you is none of your business. Even in the low carb and keto community.

Uh oh. I fell off the keto wagon and lost my way but this is how I easily found my way back to the ketogenic low carb diet after cheating on the diet for an extended period.

Don’t eat sugar. Especially after being on Keto for a while. You. Will. Suffer.

This year, for the first time, Im going to be making a low carb ketogenic Thanksgiving dinner. The menu includes Southern “Corn”bread and Turkey Dressing (inspired by the “highfalutin low-carb” YouTube channel) as well as other delicious keto goodies. It’s going to be amazing and you better believe that I’m going to post pictures and recipes on Instagram!

There seems to be an anti-scale sentiment in the ketogenic community but I think stepping on the scale and weighing yourself every day can be a powerful tool when you have a lot of weight to lose - particularly when you have 100 pounds or more to lose - so I’m discussing my unique point of view when it comes to weighing yourself every day while doing keto or any other low-carb diet or any diet in general. I understand that weight can fluctuate wildly and that weight loss is not a straight line, but overall I think the scale is a perfect way to give yourself a quick look at your progress.

The truth of why I eat one meal a day aka #OMAD and why I think OMAD can help with binge eating and food addiction - and can be a powerful tool for weight loss on a low-carb or ketogenic diet. #keto
