Hello everyone, how are you all doing? Today was day 22 of this journey I have been on. I have been feeling less inflamed, so a lot less pain. My legs still have some...but my back is a lot better. Blood sugar had been doing better, but I think my carb day did mess with it. I've been all over the place today and much higher than I would like on a day that I haven't had many carbs. My weight did go up even more, thought I had snuck by and got off with only gaining 2 oz but today was more. Hoping to lose that and a bit more by Friday...We'll see. Now - for my meals today. I started off the day with having 6 oz of top sirloin (London Broil) - it was marinated overnight. Later in the day I had almost 3 servings of Lit'l smokies with sugar free BBQ sauce. No, those aren't perfect carnivore, but they are a health food compared to the junk I ate just a little over 3 weeks ago. I wasn't really in the mood to make another meal, so I had a protein drink and some butter to get enough protein and calories in. So- the macros for everything -- Calories - 1,297, Carbs - 14, Fat - 98, Protein - 88 Yes, carbs were a bit high...but that is from the protein drink, BBQ sauce and a bit from the smokies. I really should probably just have beef, butter, bacon and eggs...but I don't that I could stick to that (unless the beef was steak). What do you think of the day? Picture is of my steak today. Don't mind the plate or the juice; it wasn't a bloody steak lol.

I don’t think I could do this diet with so much meat and butter, but more power to the people who can.

It's really not that bad, except for finding the meats I can eat often. There is a steak I could eat daily but can't afford to do that lol. But could probably get enough to have it a couple times a week. I really should make a meal plan so I can focus on how to get enough protein, at a decent price.

Well I am trying, even though some days seems like a fail
