    Good job Courtney! You are right that weight loss isn’t everything on this journey because we are looking for healing and good health! ❤ I will say though that my experience and research has told me that dairy is a huge pitfall for weight loss. Every-time I have it I gain a few pounds even if it’s just a little. I know we have to do whatever helps us stay on track (dairy, spices, sauces, etc) but if you ever feel stalled you know those things have to go. Keep up the great work, you’re very inspiring and I love your realism. ☺️ I’m doing my own egg fast this week, wish me luck! 😅

    I was once in a place in my life where eggs were the only food that I could afford. It was back in the days when a dozen eggs was less than $1 and I could get 4-6 meals per dozen. I lost weight over time especially in my hips, belly and waist. I only ate eggs, no cheese.

This last week I overdid the refeed day (still having some minor issues with binging, but it’s far fewer and farther between since I deactivated instagram!). We shall see how week 2 goes since my refeed day will be on Easter, then my next refeed day on date night 😂. (Also, hi, I’m still alive - Daisy)

    Courtney, congrats on 500 days! Thank you for sharing your challenge! You're so like me in so many ways, and I only just heard about you a couple of days ago on Lillie Kane's video.
    We're on day 46 here, and time seems to be flying, but it also seems like a long time since we started, like our past WOE was another lifetime. I actually think I'd like the 3-day egg fast, since (funny enough) I'm not a big meat person and have devised ways to get it in disguised as other types of food. lol It took a while to not be nauseated and in despair about having to eat meat. Not gonna lie, the first few days on carni were rough. At least the sleep was better!
    Anyway, I could stand to not eat the cheese, so I wonder if I could just go with a sprinkle of parm or a slice of cheddar melted on dinner's eggs and be okay with the fat content change. I have 3 lbs to get down to a "tens" of weight that I haven't been in, in a long time, so I'd love to even lose what you did if it would help speed up the loss. Currently 13 lbs down in 6.5 weeks.
    Thanks again!

    LOVE the haircut Courtney, absolutely love it! Something's rearranging w/you, because your eyes look even huger & lower face is narrower & cheekbones look even higher. Not that you had a round face by any means, but it looks a bit narrower~ & I doubt it's just the haircut. Such a pretty woman🌻
    Pierced my lower lip when I turned 3O.~ it hurt SO BAD, only about 10 seconds, but I screamed like a baby. Wore a diamond stud for years, after it fell out one day I just never replaced it~ but I loved it for a while.
    YES on Sean O'Mara! Love that guy so much, highly recommend his content~ for all kinds of reasons.
    *HEY~ 1.6 lbs in 3 days is awesome! I've been averaging a pound a week, & only these past few months~ out of 2 yrs!! For me, I had to hugely increase my fats, & lower my protein~ but that's always subject to change, as we know. Honestly, I think my body wasn't gonna let go of anything until it was darn good & ready, & likely was a variety of things. Upping my fat could just be coincidence timing, since I'd done that the first year & GAINED a little weight. Who dang knows =)
    All that blather aside, & since you asked, I'm finally down 30 lbs~ 165 from 196, @5'6" tall. SO thrilled! Will be interesting now to see where my body settles at, likely around 150 or so~ which is where I feel best. I'm not built to be a svelte, willowy figure~ plus I like my curves. Wasn't always the case, I felt frumpy in clothes, like they tented off my chest, & could never find jeans that fit my rearend w/out gapping in waist in back. I think I've learned to appreciate it for what it is as I get older.
    Ok, essay over~ crap, I talk a lot! Have an awesome "almost 40" adventure Courtney, it's not a crisis at all imo. We have periods in life that inspire us to try different things, maybe a bit bolder than usual. It's like trying on different hats. Some will look ridiculous, but others fit you & you'll feel amazing in =)👒🤠🎩 ~Sammy in NV

    This is interesting, I thought egg fast was literally just eggs, I didn’t know you could eat other things too. I will say though, it wouldn’t be for me. I feel physically nauseated if I eat just eggs without a clean meat with it. It’s odd. Like eggs and bacon will make me feel sick to my stomach they just don’t do it for me, I need beef. I’m better off with no food than to have just eggs for a meal or eggs and bacon. Wondering if anyone else is like that?

    • @RV-there-Yet
      @RV-there-Yet Год назад +1

      Yep~ same here Sara. That being said, I've noticed that hard boiled eggs on their own do not nauseate me. Any other form is no bueno. I've always assumed it's the richness of eggs, though I seem to do better w/the yolks-which are "richer"- than whites. *Recently discovered there are several components in whites, w/"ovomucoid" being the dominant allergen, that can trigger the body to mistake it as a threat to the immune system. Nausea is one of main symptoms. Makes me wonder if it's somehow related to it being another species egg/unmatured animal, that directly conflicts for females in particular~ just some thoughts. ~Samantha

    My mom and I ate carnivore for a month and it did wonders for our health.
    My mom has a severe hernia that she needs surgery for and any type of gastric irritation causes her severe pain, along with arthritis and joint stiffness. She never had any issues eating carnivore. Plus, her joints had noticeably less pain.
    I have some arthritis, stiffness, psoriasis, and swelling issues. All disappeared on carnivore.
    I've basically found out I can't tolerate gluten or sugar 😭. It causes my joints to hurt, my psoriasis comes back, and my joints are so stiff and painful.
    We both noticed we didn't have as much gas eating carnivore 🤔. Interesting considering all the fat and cheese we were eating 🧀😂.

      No, cheese is part of it. Go to the "i breathe I'm hungry" page and search the egg fast. There are a few reasons, partly is about the fat ratio, and part is about specific minerals in the egg combined with certain ones in cheese, that supports the liver, which speeds up it's ability to burn fat

      Too much? That's the bare minimum for the body to function properly. You need even more if you're active. CICO is false. The *main* controllers of weight are hormones. Don't undereat to lose weight, or you'll slow your metabolism.
