Well I doubt too many people here are big fans of The Liver King...not sure if you know who he is, but he's a giant muscle man on YouTube who eats raw meat and acts like a caveman. Not my kind of Carnivore obviously but he's pretty famous and he sells a lot of supplements. Well as much as he has always 100% denied that he's ever taken steroids or growth hormones. It was leaked yesterday that he is absolutely taking tons of them. Not shocking for most of us but his die hard fans are SHOCKED! Most of his loyal fans still don't believe it, even though it's been pretty obvious. They have blinders on to the possibility that he could be anything but this ideal he represents. Even when the evidence is presented they want to believe it so badly they refuse to see anything else.
My point in sharing this is that you CAN NEVER know everything about people online. It's so important that on social media you take everything with a grain of salt and don't put all your hope in one specific person (me included). I definitely try and share the good and the bad, the ups and the downs, but it's still only a small part of my life.
You have to know the reasons why you personally are doing Carnivore and not just blindly follow people you see on the internet. Ask yourself if the people you love most online were found out to be lying the entire time would you believe it? Would that be heartbreaking for you? Would that change your motivation or belief in Carnivore or your desire to eat this way? No one can live up to the perfection they represent online. If someone is representing perfection, there's likely something we're not seeing. Just remember to not believe everything you see and to keep some healthy skepticism with everything that people share. Sometimes if it's too good to be true it likely is.
**But just for the record I don't take steroids. 😜😂
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Happy Sunday! Sharing a video today from our week, one of the highlights. This was Wednesday evening church, normally they have a more casual prayer meeting where someone plays the guitar, but they were doing some construction in the fellowship hall so they had their prayer meeting in the sanctuary. No one was there to play the piano so my my Grandma did it, she's been playing the piano in church for probably 80 years.
For context, she's 88, she had a really bad fall 5 years ago now and hit her head and ended up with a lot setbacks, similar to having a stroke. She has a lot of dementia like symptoms also (I am sure related to her Type 2 diabetes), she really can't read music anymore, and she has trouble seeing well, and she needs to wear hearing aids to hear but hates wearing them, so on this night she didn't want to wear them. My 93 (almost 94) year old grandpa takes care of both of them on their farm. Anyway, on this night she sat down on the piano and led worship as people called ...
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. 🎹🤍🖤

Happy Friday!! I finally got back to walking yesterday. Our entire week in WV I didn't get many steps in, we took some walks in the woods but not a lot of miles. Since I came back I've been so busy and tired, at least that's my excuse, but really it's just hard to get back into the routine after not doing it for over a week. That's the hard part for me about exercise, the more I do it the easier it is to keep doing it. But as soon as I have a few days in a row where I don't make time to exercise, I just lose all motivation for it. However yesterday I got back to it!! 💪🏼💪🏼 I walked about 6+ miles during the day while working and hit 15k steps. Today is going to be very busy but I plan to get started early in the day.
How are you planning to get some movement in today?
Happy Thursday! I am all thrown off this week on what day it is. 😂 It's been good to be home but busy getting back into our routine. Chris and the kids started getting things organized yesterday to kick off their school year. They always start by setting some goals for the year and mapping out a plan on how to accomplish them.
Normally I like to focus on short term goals and daily non-negotiables, but I thought it might be fun to set a longer term goal for the rest of this year.
What is one thing you want to accomplish still in 2025?
Day 7 – September 5, 2025
Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you’ve all had a good week. This is my accountability check-in.
I originally thought about posting daily, but since my meals are exactly the same each day, I’ve decided a weekly update makes more sense. I’ll still be checking in regularly by commenting on and encouraging others’ posts, but my own accountability posts will just be once a week.
Here’s what my daily meals look like right now:
11:00 AM (Breakfast): 1 Premier Protein shake (Chocolate Peanut Butter)
3:30 PM (Solid Meal): 3 air-fried chicken thighs (skin on), seasoned with a sugar-free/carb-free grilled chicken seasoning
6:00 PM (Dinner): Another Premier Protein shake
I’m also working intermittent fasting into my routine. Because of my job schedule, the best I can consistently manage is a 17-hour fast.
The good news: I’ve stayed 100% carnivore all week and I’m feeling good about it. I also had some lab work done, and the results came back encouraging. For context, ...
