Have just finished 30 days on carnivore diet, some of my observations:
1) Wasn’t hungry. Certainly ate less in all but found myself full sooner too
2) Eggs are the best! I went through about 100 in 1 month, hard boiled as snacks of cooked alongside steak/sausages/bacon. Throw on some grated cheese when you’re next frying eggs!
3) Eating outside the home is the biggest challenge. Difficult to find dishes at restaurants/cafes that are meat only
4) Minced meat is your friend. I cooked “meat cakes” with eggs and cheese in muffin trays for snacks, and mixed with taco seasoning and bacon is a great easy meal
5) Didn’t experience much benefit in energy levels but I certainly slept better
6) Once you break your sugar addiction it becomes very easy
7) Your gut readjusting after a few days isn’t much fun 😂
8) Sous vide made the cooking part way easier.
9) Its not expensive. I was getting through on $15-$25 per day and having basically whatever meat I felt like
10) 4 other people started carnivore after talking to me, all men. Sharing with them at different points made it easier too
Can’t see myself doing it full time but I reckon I’ll do it annually with dry July. Improved my cooking abilities and dropped weight with minimal effort, realised seed oils are in everything, and noticed just how pervasive shit food is too so it was a very worthwhile experiment for me.
