baskington's Journal, 08 September 2018

bright sunshine today and it matchs my mood! I feel pretty good and have my game plan set. I shouldn't have had coffee this morning but I had a half cup. got to stop doing that.

I went and refigured my calories and macro's for the carnivore diet and both chronometer and the carnivore site call for my RDI on maintenance for no exercise to be in the 1400 and change. Actually chronometer is a little less.

I may be over that overall for the calories allowed for the week but I am not overly concerned right now I want to heal so eat when hungry and no exercise for at least this week. It is hard as I enjoy it. But my legs are starting to feel better and hard exercise can cause stress and a histamine release which I don't need right now. want to flush out the excess and hopefully calm everything down. I am close to my goal weight so a couple pounds either way is not a big thing.

Pretty much dropped my water gain so starting fresh at my previous weight. Steak and water for 10 days and suppliments.

Wow you diet sounds delicious :)

My BMR is supposedly around 1200-1300 and my maintenance with all my exercise is only 1500-1600. Hubbys is more than double that :/. It gets hard to stick with 1400 or less. If your ribeyes are lean then I bet you’ll stay close. Unless you eat 2 steaks at a sitting for 3 meals a day! This diet is one I could do where so many others I can’t stick to. It’s hard to beat a good steak! Enjoy your diet! And the rest from exercise and hope you figure more things out :).

Curious, do you take an antihistamine tablet to minimize your reactions or do you want to know when you are having a reaction? I couldn't do without my coffee

Peeperjj it is very important to have only the fattiest of cuts for ensuring to satisfy the hunger. I have more than once gone to the 1900 range in my calories just eating beef and fat. I am not overly worried with going over right now, but I will track the best I can as meat varies so greatly in the food calorie/fat percentage on all the food trackers, I decided the aldi is about average in the protein versus fat calculations so I use that one. If I have a super fatty one I can always add some beef fat to the diary to balance it.

@baskington - When I eat a ribeye I cut my slices so I have a bit of fat in every bite :)

I do the best I can on that one, I do love the fat.

Marx I have very few medications I can handle and for sinus and drainage the only thing I tolerate is benedryl or Flonase. It has been that way for decades, never could handle the other sinus or cold medications.

Please read up on Benadryl! I read it is associated with early onset dementia, so I threw all I had away.

Hmm I don’t eat fat. It’s slimey and I don’t like the flavor lol. I thought a carnivore diet was supposed to be lean meat. I must’ve read it wrong ;).

Glad your mood is so sunny - great way to start a weekend! I am so happy that your legs are feeling better - good job with resting them so they can heal!

yep Peeperjj carnivore is heavy fat in your meat very similar to keto in that department. Bacon is used a lot to get the balance if the meats are too lean. fried or well broiled fat is great, I love the taste. I would not like uncooked fat. I wish I could handle pig fat that is my favorite

gz9gig, that is the only allergy medication I can take. But I rarely take anything. I can't remember the last time, maybe a decade ago. I keep it here for emergencies, my husband is allergic to bee stings so I need to keep it around
