      Hi there! I joined locals group but can't introduce myself due to the fact I can't afford the supporter fee. I really enjoy your journey, especially seeing your mom. I feel like I've met her somewhere! I live near Greenfield Indiana. I guess I will just see if I like reading all the supporter posts and just delete the app if its not helpful. I thought it would be fun to really be part of your community but just not affordable for me. I'll continue to watch you on RUclips. 😊

    When people are a little bit older and already have metabolic disorders, fatty liver, fatty, pancreas digestive issues you really have to go into this slowly and give it time. A lot of things need to heal before you see benefits. My body was not even absorbing fat it was going right through me once I realized this, I did a little bit more fasting, and had to add a little bit of fiber, but still stay meat-based I’m actually feeling 100% better.

    I ordered LMNT after hearing about it on your channel. And I must say their customer service CAN NOT be beat. USPS never delivered my latest order… on their tracking it says still in transit but running late. Their tracking keeps saying it’s at the same location for days. I contacted LMNT and they sent me my order on expedited shipping at no extra cost to me! There have been other times where they’ve had the opportunity to show me their great customer service…I’m telling you not only is their product THE best I’ve ever tried but the customer service is over the top.

It was awful, I couldn’t finish it, and all desire for that food left me. I’m talking about macaroni and cheese, potato salad, and other carb loaded foods.

    Personally, the cheap ground beef 27/73 Max is good for carnivore and you don't have to buy LMNT. You can go to the store and buy new salt for your potassium, you can buy pink salt and add that and you can pick up some magnesium citrate when you're going somewhere. You can take it with you in a Ziploc bag

    Carnivore is definitely more expensive than what I was spending on groceries when I was really poor. And I don't eat out, I only buy steaks when they're on sale, and I eat mostly ground beef and eggs. Not the pricey stuff either. I buy the cheapest ground beef I have access to. I buy other meats when they're on sale too. But you would be surprised just how cheap (and just terribly unhealthy) you can eat when you're really, truly poor. We didn't buy any meat for a long time because we literally couldn't afford it, not even for one meal. It didn't fit into our budget. Also, the only vegetables we ate were from cans, because that was cheapest. We lived on pasta and beans and canned vegetables. So yeah, for some people carnivore very well might be more expensive than how they're currently eating if they're poor.

      In the beginning I felt this way all’s, it’s just me, so I don’t have a family to buy and cook for, but for me, I would buy foods, snacks etc, and wind up not eating all, or having to toss because out of date. I definitely eat more eggs, (thank God the price has gone down), watch my local stores for sales, and that cheaper per pound of ground beef is better for getting more fat in your diet. I hope you’re able to find your way in this eating style, because one of the great effects I’m getting is many of my health issues , GI especially improved. The the electrolyte drink, make your own, there is no way I can or even want to afford the flavored drink packs that everyone recommends. Dr Ken Berry as a great recipe, that I use as a base, there are others that have recipes on YT. Here’s a hint, if you have cream of tarter in your pantry, that the potassium that’s needed in the electrolyte drink.

      Either try Crobometer and keep to macros or go keto. 4 pounds a month is admirable but you can essily achieve twice that. Remember, the body can't store protein, so once needs are met, any extra is used for energy or stored as fat. Excess calories from any source will be stored as fat in the body.

    Carnivore budget thought: Considerably less food waste because literally everything can be frozen, either cooked or raw.

    Always helpful. Thx. I especially appreciate the info about ketones and blood sugar. Keto & ketovore for over 5 yrs, Jan 1 doing carnivore. Been checking my numbers and wondering why I can’t get ketones higher. You just calmed me. My numbers are similar to yours. Relief!

    Just finished your video on cooking meats. That will be so helpful, bk I sometimes get discouraged with trying to get meat tender. I just wd give up and put meat in the crockpot bk that guarantees tenderness. I can’t get steaks tender and enjoyable so I surrender to cooking ground beef instead. You are very inspiring and helpful.

      Soak your tough meat pieces for a 1/2 hr or even overnight in water mixed with some baking soda. (1 tsp Baking soda per pound of meat) Rinse off, before marinating with your usual spices & cook as usual. Meat will be tender.

    Started Carnivore in October, first couple weeks pretty difficult. My spouse is not carnivore and I cook for him. My difficulty is travel, that comes with happy hour and great restaurants. We travel a lot and I order meat no sides. I'm ok with that. Mexican food is the one restaurant I try to avoid😮. I'm weak when it come to chips and salsa. Right now I'm binge watching carnivore videos to stay on track. Does it ever get easier? I started this journey to feel better and lose the tire around my belly...its going away 🎉 but my ketone meter does not show me in ketosis, that's confusing. I do feel better and will not stop trying❤Thank you Laura!

    Common mistakes people make when starting carnivore:
    -They follow too many of the zealot trends and feat backlash from the carnivore community, or even the backlash from family, friends, social media vegans, etc.
    -They start with too much dairy - snacking on string cheese, cottage cheese, drinking milk are fine, but your main food should be beef
    -They don't hydrate enough with water and electrolytes (and thus experience the "flu" or hangover like effects)
    -They assume the cost of beef is restrictive, not factoring in how much less they are spending on other food items, medicines, and healthcare - and this is GUARANTEED
    -They simply don't eat enough
    That last one is very important. Someone will eat a steak or a burger patty for breakfast and feel satiated, but then simply won't eat again until mid-afternoon or evening. Not eating enough will lead to the starvation effect. Get a protein tracker and try to keep your grams of protein close to your ideal weight in pounds. That seems like a lot, but you still need to eat enough fat and other nutrients or your body will begin to eat itself. You will be properly satiated in a way that you really won't need to actively fast, because the fasting will come from simply being full of fatty red meat.
    Try beef, butter, water, and salt for 30 days. Then add bacon and eggs for the next 60 days (BBB&E). Then start adding back other non-inflammatory carnivore foods; know what "cheating" you can HONESTLY handle when, say, on vacation or holidays with the family. Then get right back into this because now you know the routine, you know what makes you feel healthier. Don't beat yourself up.

    Almost 6 months carnivore. Unfortunately no weight loss. In fact, in the last week I've gained 4 lbs. Barely any improvement with my joint pain. Sleep is terrible, but I attribute that to having to get up multiple times a night to pee... I plan to eat this way for the rest of my life, but it would be so much better if I could see or feel some improvements. I know my body is most likely healing on the inside. My blood work is excellent, although my LDL is up, and so is my A1c, which I don't understand why it would be.... Oh well... I'm just not one of the lucky ones who are successful on CV. I'm still not going to quit.....😔

    When people get tied up about the cost of eating meat, I wonder if they are comparing their shopping total to their past diet shopping total, or are they just having sticker shock about eating less food that cost more per item? for me, I ended up spending less money even though each item cost more per item

    If I don’t drink my LMNT, I start to cramp. I love LMNT. Carnivore has been good, slow for me because I love my coffee and heavy whipping cream with monk fruit. Not sure if that’s what’s slowing it down or too many calories, even though we don’t count calories, maybe I don’t have that calorie deficit?? Not sure

    Laura honey I absolutely love your channel. I do have a huge bone to pick with LMNT though because I recently discovered that the flavored electrolytes has DEXTROSE in them!!!! Why? Why would they not put this as part of their ingredients? This seems super shady on their part for not disclosing all the facts. They claim to be a high quality and clean ingredient product but choose to not disclose this on the packaging. instead you have to go on their website and dig for this type of info. Would Love to hear your thoughts on this?

    • @margiecallahan3009

      I thought the Stevia was giving me migraines! It's probably the dextrose… FYI I switched to (unflavored) Re-Lyte by Redmond real salt. The only ingredient is ancient sea salt. Ingredients differ in all three. No more migraines!

    For the person early on at kind of at the beginning of you, talking, that was saying meat was too expensive, not all stores do this, but I found one here in the Pacific Northwest, Olympia, Washington, and the store is called Safeway‘s . They have a bargain bin next to all the other meats, but they have to sell fast bc of the date, so they put 30% and 50% and all the meats.and I buy all my ribeye steaks there, and I almost buy all my pork chops there I bought pork chops anywhere from a buck fifty to three dollars per one chop big thick ones . sometimes I can find hamburger but not usually but that’s OK . I buy spareribs in there too. that’s how I can afford to sprinkle in some steaks. And I feel How one person brought up that he was the only carnivore, I have my daughter and my 15 year old granddaughter living here and my husband and I and I’m the only one who is doing keto for a long time, and then ketovore, and so far, I would love to do carnivore, but I keep bouncing back-and-forth doing carnivore and keto.. Anyways, it’s hard because I’m the one who cooks everything so I’ll cook vegetables and rice or noodles for everyone else . But when everyone else goes out to the garage and gets an ice cream sandwich or pies or cake, sometimes it’s not hard for me at all but sometimes it is, so I get people when you’re the only one in the family that’s doing this is hard. Also, I have tried so hard to find a Community in my community here. I haven’t found any meetings anywhere I’m at I’m not working I’m 62. I would love to find a Community. So if anybody’s in the Olympia Washington area, give me a shout. 🤣

      I have a couple of go-to things I always keep in my fridge so when I want something I know I shouldn't eat (like dessert or chips), I can grab that instead. For me, those things are deviled eggs (I vary how I make them so I don't get tired of them), Italian cured meats like pepperoni, salami, prosciutto, soppressata and mortadella (which isn't cured) along with Asiago and mozzarella cheese, and Boars Head cold cuts sliced very thinly - love the Sweet Slice Ham (1 carb for 3 oz) or Bourbon Ridge Ham (1.5 carbs for 2 oz) or Everroast Chicken (0.5 carb for 2 oz) or 46% Lower Sodium Turkey (0 carbs for 2 oz - it has the taste and texture of a turkey you'd roast yourself, which I love. I bought it for my dog originally and decided to share his and found I loved it. I just add salt myself). I can always use these things for a side (meat and cheese rollups, etc) or as a good-sized snack since I can't eat a lot at one sitting.

Thats one of the main reasons I went on it. Also for inflammation. I'm thin so I don't need to lose weight & I've always exercised. But have struggled with gut issues,bloating & constipation,most of my life.

Even on the days when the scale does not move, I tell myself that 'at least I'm not eating all the junk I used to eat.' I hear you saying 1gram of protien for each pound of your ideal body weight. I stuggle with being full - and I know I do not hit enough grams protein in a day. Can you share specifically how you hit 140-150 grams protein Per Day? What do you eat? Do you add protein suppliments to hit that Daily Protein Goal?? - Love your all your common sense videos!!!
