30-Day Carnivore Challenge:
CHALLENGE:
Set One Non-Negotiable Rule For Yourself. Something you don't cave on NO MATTER WHAT!!
This is going to be different for everyone based on your current situation (or cutting out something you are struggling with). For me, that one main non-negotiable thing is always STAY CARNIVORE NO MATTER WHAT. There were some great suggestions yesterday in the comments about other ideas (cutting out fruit, alcohol, keto treats). For some of you, it might be to INCLUDE something each day and not restrict something (Ex: movement, . If you need help deciding yours let me know in the comments and I will help. Think about the one change you can make that will have the BIGGEST impact. If you are having occasional cheats then your non-negotiable should be NO CHEATS. It might even be as simple as "No chips and Salsa". Whatever is holding you back we want to make the main focus this month.
SECONDARY GROUP GOAL: (I will pick one group goal for us to all work on every 30 days in addition to your non-negotiable). For this month we are going to focus on a FASTING WINDOW: 1-3 meals a day depending on your needs and NO SNACKING. Weekly 24 or 48-hour fast (we can do these as a group)
Feel free to add more goals for yourself as you like, just remember if stress happens, life gets crazy, and you are feeling overwhelmed...stay strong on that ONE NON-NEGOTIABLE THING.
Measurements of Success:
-Take starting picture (we will take one at the end) Only post if you feel comfortable
-It's not an all-or-nothing challenge, the goal of this is to focus on consistency and long-term habits. No one is kicked out for not being perfect, we want to support each other in focusing on getting healthy. Track the number of days you were successful in sticking to your main non-negotiable rule. We will celebrate that number at the end.
Not sure if any of this made sense, I am not a writer. haha Join me Wednesday night at 5pm pst/8pm est and I'll go LIVE and we can talk it out then (and you can ask questions). Comment below if you need help setting your goals.
Happy Saturday! I hope you are all doing well. I know some people in the group have had some recent tough news for themselves or family members. It really puts the day to day issues we face into perspective, and reminds me to just focus on doing the best I can to be as healthy as possible. To those who are having a hard time, we are all here for you and sending you some prayers and support. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Just focus today on doing the best you can and remember that food isn't going to bring you the comfort you are looking for.
Here is a little video of Penelopes performance from her piano recital l last night, she's been taking lessons for about a year and a half. 🎹🤍🖤

Thinking about the year ahead can be overwhelming when it comes to goal setting. For some people, like me, short term goals can be much more motivating. Right now it's beast mode through the Meetup this Saturday. That said, I do still have long term goals for the year. Staying carnivore is just a given now as it's my life already so I have to dive a little deeper for me. I'd like to stay in the same weight range but lower my body fat a bit. Gain some muscle mass in short. Gym at least 4 times a week and beast mode at the same time is my recipe.
Steak video for interest. 🤪
Do you do better with short or long term goals?
So sorry guys, my 2 1/2 hour drive home from the cabin is turning into a 5+ hour drive home so I am not going to make it in time to Livestream tonight. I'll post the link for the Dr Berry Livestream for tomorrow when I know it. I'll catch up on posts here when I get home if you have any questions.
Happy Saturday!! One thing I thought might be fun today is for everyone to share their favorite Budget meal and their favorite Bougie meal on a carnivore diet (or whatever version you eat).
"Bougie [boo-zhee, -jee] (An adjective slang): relating to or characteristic of a person who indulges in some of the luxuries and comforts of a fancy lifestyle."
For example, my favorite Budget friendly meal is just a taco bowl, ground beef with some seasonings, little shredded cheese, and sour cream. I could eat that every day and not get sick of it!!!
For my Bougie meal: A fancy American wagyu steak, usually ribeye, crab legs, and of course bread cheese! That is typically what we eat for Christmas every year. If budget didn't matter I would eat that a lot more often! 😂
What about you? What's your favorite budget meal and bougie meal?
This is a quick share of a NSV. I slipped into a pair of shorts I haven't been able to get past my thighs in several years. The shorts fit beautifully. I'm truly amazed. I haven't weighed in a while but the last time I did I was down about 4 pounds. I attribute the body change to almost 4 months of working out 4 to 5 days a week.
