Hey there. I started my Hard-Core Carnivore Challenge yesterday. Yes, I called it a challenge. Why not? And it just so happens that there are 70 days left in the year (from yesterday) so this will be a 70-day challenge.
Big Anklevich and I finished our last challenge, a 90-Day BBBE challenge, in early October 2022 (last year). I had lost almost 60 pounds and weighed in at around 390 pounds. Eventually I strayed and went back to my terrible way of eating.
Then in March of this year we started again, but I was trying to find a way to do it without a challenge and came up with a point system for passing or failing in my way of eating. I did well, but would end up failing every couple weeks. I would get back to it, but would then fail again.
On August 1st, Kelley and I started the 75 Hard program. She did it full throttle, but I modified it a bit. Everyday, I had to 1) stick to my way of eating, 2) drink a gallon of water, 3) exercise, 4) read 10 pages of a non-fiction book, 5) watch a Carnivore related video, and 6) take a picture of myself. Kelley did the same, but exercised for 45 minutes twice daily; and she didn't watch a video daily as that is just something I added for myself. I did well with the eating, water, exercise, and reading. However, I have not been seeing the results like I did last year. I have not been losing very much weight.
So now I am going back to Hard-Core Carnivore with BBBE and will probably throw in some type of periodic fasting.
I will be posting on this blog daily of what I am eating and other stuff.
So for yesterday:
Meal 1
- Taco Meat with sour cream, shredded cheese, and salsa. (I know this is not BBBE, but I finished off these remaining items from the fridge at work.) Accountability
- One hamburger patty, and one hot dog
Meal 2
- Six scrabbled eggs and about 1-pound of bacon
