Health Journey 2026 - Weigh in and Notes (9/11/26)

Tweet

Hey everyone, how are you all doing? Sorry if this is too long...I wanted to share a lot. Since is Friday I thought I would share my weigh in, share what I have ate the last 2 days and plans going forward. First -- the weigh in. Starting -- 242 Last -- 229.6 Today -- 224.4 I reached a new low on the scale! so I am 4 ounces away from 18 pounds down since the beginning. I know tomorrow the weight will be up because I was not very good today. What did I eat the last 2 days? Yesterday (Thursday) -- Meal 1 - Arby's double beef n cheddar, no bun or red ranch Meal 2 - 10 lil' smokies and sugar free BBQ sauce Fasted the rest of the day -- 18 hours. Drank water, and 1 zero sugar Pepsi Today -- After fasting for the 18 hours, I had my first meal at Jack in the Box - not carnivore. Chicken nuggets and fries. I also had 2 oreos. I had a protein shake (low carb) to get my protein up and then ended the day with a chocolate mousse. I know, I should not do these cheat days anymore. It is just hard to eat meat every single day, and not get to have all the foods I used to eat. I am going to work on doing that less and less. So hopefully I can get to the point where I only do it on very special occasions (like a birthday or holiday). As for the plans I mentioned -- As many know we've been trying to conceive for the past 2 years and still waiting for good news. Part of why I started doing carnivore was to help that. Not only will losing weight help, but fixing my insulin and other hormones should. However to do that, I need to up my fat. My protein goal has been about right, but for fixing hormones the fat needs to be higher. Yes, even doing that I should still lose weight - especially with fixing my hormones. Insulin is a fat storing hormone and if it has issues you will hold on to fat and gain weight. So I have a list of meal ideas to help with that, and hopefully the weight loss will continue and I'll be in a much better place health wise soon. I mean carnivore has helped a ton already...but I still need a lot of healing. I do also plan to work out again soon, but I should still lose even if I didn't. Just might be quicker if I add that in. What do you all think?
