Wife and I started the carnivore diet this week, cut out caffeine, and alcohol too except on Tuesdays and when I play slow pitch because I play better when I’ve had a few beers. I did the carnivore diet last year for the whole month of January with no caffeine or alcohol then and I lost 20 lbs and had lots of natural energy and my aches/pains went away. It’s a lot easier this time around because she is on board with it and participating, but this will just be a 2 week experiment for her to see how she likes it.

On the carnivore diet part of it is eating more fats because your body is switching from using carbs/sugar as energy sources and switches to using fats and fat stores within the body to produce the energy. After a few weeks on it I will wake up with energy from the go and the energy lasts all day long. Me not drinking coffee is just a choice and has nothing to do with the diet. I think caffeine breaks are good for people and helps reset the tolerance levels.

Also when I think of natural energy I’m thinking energy produced from within and not provided by a stimulant like coffee or energy drinks.

Natural energy, what's that? Lol
I don't drink alcohol but drink alot of coffee.

The first few days are rough because of the caffeine withdrawals, but ik the headaches are coming so I take a few ibuprofen to get ahead of them and then they don’t usually come back after day 2.

interesting 👀

i’ve cut alcohol for a month+ before and felt great, can’t imagine cutting coffee tho 😬

I mix in some cottage cheese and cheddar cheese so hardcore carnivore people will disagree with my approach, but it does the trick. In all honestly if I could afford steak and eggs everyday I would do that and may not ever eat other foods.

I did it strict for 2 years back in 2018. Beef, water, salt strict. Best thing I ever did. Still meat-based to this day. Call my diet dirty carnivore.
