I ran out of time yesterday so I am combining two days in one post today. The big question is, have I turned the corner? For the first time in two weeks I felt strong and energetic in the gym, just like old times. I only did two things differently. I left the cheese out of my omelet, and I waited more than an hour after breakfast before going to the gym. I did not go today, but will be back tomorrow and we will see if the energy issue is resolved. If so, it will be a big step forward.
The weight loss seems to have leveled off for now. In the last 3-4 days I have only gone down 1 lb. I eat so very little and am rarely hungry, so I do not know why I am not still losing weight. My friend and carnivore mentor told me that the weight loss is sporadic, but overall, in the long term, I will continue to lose weight. He also encouraged me to enjoy some other food once in a while. It made no difference in his experience, but, continued 'cheating' say for a week or more, and the old maladies start coming back. Someone else said that after 6 months on the diet, it took almost a year to completely obliterate all the good it had done.
I am learning more as I go along, and am finding that talking to people who are experienced is more helpful that reading articles and watching videos.
