I am 11 months on Carnivore. At the start, I could not eat butter or rendered fat because it caused that crazy diarrhea.🙈 However, in my desire to increase fat intake, I recently decided to try eating butter again. Almost immediately, I felt like this additional fat helped to reduce the stiffness in my body. Is there a way that I could increase my intake of butter (or fat) more than I am currently eating, without getting loose stool? I was trying to eat 1/2 of stick (not of a block) of butter, but my stool has been really soft and super sticky, which indicates that I am consuming too much fat. I am eating much less than 1/2 of a stick now after having ‘an accident’.

I've made a decent ice cream using coconut milk, the Alpro no sugar brand. How terrible is coconut milk? Is there something better I can use? I mix it 50:50 with double cream. I'd use 100% cream but too much of a good thing 😅 I have IBS so have to be careful what I use. I know ice cream isn't the best but it keeps me feeling deprived. I'm mostly carnivore at the mo and finally sticking to it and I've also given up alcohol for nearly a month so don't want to push things.

I’ve been struggling with a sciatic nerve issue for almost a month now and in addition to being carefully carnivore in my food choices, I decided this week to do a little grounding experiment. I’ve always found camping outdoors to be very rejuvenating but for various reasons, we haven’t tent camped for over a year. So, since I can’t go to a campsite right now with our schedule, I pitched my tent in the backyard and am sleeping outdoors this week. I didn’t wake up crippled this morning, though the birds woke me up rather early (4am) with their antics. I’m hoping a little serenity outside will finish off this nerve pain. My husband and son think I’m a little nuts but I’m ok with that!

Hope everyone is enjoying the Sunday sun. Beef in the oven whilst we had a lovely walk in the woods. Daughter is on her way back from doing her Duke of Edinburgh in this heat!!! Suffering with blisters and sounds shattered, demanding roast beef dinner for her return! I have always incorporated exercised in my life and having Hashimote's my goals to gain muscle and tone has always been a challenge. I have always exercised first thing in the morning before breakfast. With the dreaded menopause and thyroid issues I am wondering now if exercising when feeling hungry is causing my muscle to catabolised and body feeling weak so perhaps I should eat something to give me energy to push myself more in the gym. Being in my 50's I am very concerned about muscle loss and want to feel stronger.
