Turning 47 isn’t so bad! Blessed to have a surprise birthday party with friends and family. I got a lot of love which made it an extra special birthday for me. The ribeye was so so, but the company was wonderful, some of my favorite people!
My only regret is not getting many photos!

Taco Tuesday made low carb: Taco Omelette!
So many options you can add here based on your way of eating.
I kept mine simple with 4 eggs, cooked ground beef with homemade taco seasoning, cheddar and sour cream on top.

Yes, easy peasy! I wish I could eat eggs every day! I do eat them at least a few times a week though.

Finally got hungry at 1:30pm. I wanted something fast, so scrambled eggs topped with parmesan cheese for the win! Sometimes eggs are a comfort food, while other times they don’t sound good at all. 😂 Delicious meal nonetheless!

Day 3 of OMAD, simply because my meals have been so satiating and it’s taking about 24 hrs or more to get hungry again. Works for me…I feel amazing!
Bacon wrapped sirloins (I ate both, 14 ounces total) and a lot of butter!
I had eggs multiple days in a row, so needed a break today.

Yes organs if you want. All ruminant animals for the “beef” part. I’ll be eating lamb chops as well. Can’t wait for those!

I’m back to BBBE (beef, butter, bacon, eggs) this week and feeling fabulous already!
4 fried eggs (I broke one yolk), much more pork belly than what’s on the plate 😉, plus butter. I didn’t get hungry until 24 hrs later.

After 3 years carnivore (today!), I’m looking back at some pics from along the way. These are from last Fall, when I felt I was at my IDEAL health, weight and body composition @ 45 yrs old. I was between 130-132 lbs. Months before that, I enjoyed seeing the scale go under 130 but didn’t feel quite as good that low.
I have experimented many times and kept proving to myself this fact: For me to maintain my personal ideal health, I need to eat mostly BBBE (beef, butter, bacon, eggs), occasional dairy, keep my stress level as low as possible, get good quality sleep, strength train 2 days/wk, intermittent fasting (1-2 meals/day with some 48 hr fasts in the mix)
Blessed and thankful for this journey the last 3 years!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼💕

I had a very large fat cap on my last ribeye, so saved it to fry cracklins. I love them!

Umm yes!
Reverse seared this giant ribeye in the oven yesterday. Very tender!! I brought leftovers to work with me today. 🔥😋
Cooking instructions: Melt butter in skillet before adding steak. Use meat thermometer. Cook at 200F in the oven until an internal temperature of 123F, remove steak, turn oven to 450F. Then put the steak back in once the temperature is reached and cook until golden brown, internal temperature to 129-130F.
This one took 1hr and 28 minutes. I did not bring to room temp before cooking.

It’s harder than one would think, especially a soft loaf like this

Sourdough soft bread loaf is getting easier to master! I am at a place where I enjoy making it, without a big temptation to eat it myself. Huge accomplishment for me over the years of changing my eating lifestyle.
Now I need to master getting the slices cut evenly. 🤷‍♀️ What’s the trick?

After over 2 years of the carnivore way of eating, my fridge still looks like this. I’m still dry brining almost daily.
I enjoy eating this way and feel great!

Egg drop soup sounded really good today, so my steak will wait until tomorrow.
This is so easy and delicious! I love it with pork rinds and my 8 year old loves it without.

I have a feeling it’s going to be a grand Wednesday even though I have a huge to-do list! This meal is waiting for me in the fridge!

🔥 Not bad for not being in my own kitchen and electric stovetop (I’m used to my gas stovetop)
