    Where's the beef?

    Costco has some incredible sirloins packed in bulk packs. They have choice and prime. The prime is only $1 more a lb. I think it is $8, but they are the most tender sirloins I have ever had. They are about 2.5" think and each steak is about 12-16oz. I use them for a bunch of our red meat...

    Protein deals?

    True! Actually I have been eating A LOT less protein past few years. For over a decade I never ate less than 200 and usually hit 230g/day every day. I used a lot of whey to help me achieve that as that equates to about 3lbs of lean meat a day. I also was working on getting (and...

    Protein deals?

    Bumping this thread. MyProtein has a deal today. 2-5.5 lb (11lbs total) bags of pure whey isolate for $80! Free ship, just have to pay tax. This was just in time for me. I was running low. I order unflavored, but you can order anything in the 5.5 size for the deal Coupon code to enter at...

    Slowing Weight Loss for Sick Person

    Dont go for powdered PB. All the fat is out of it. My son had/has digestive issues and one of the ways we kept weight on him was always keeping full fat 'premium' icecream in the house. At the end of the day, this is just an energy balance equation. Cook with more fats, use more cream in...

    How many other lies?

    @testboner I am not one who ever said carbs are 'essential'. We all know 100% they are NOT essential. But 'essential' vs best general practice is still out. I think KETO can and does work well and is warranted in some cases, but still falls into 'fad' for me in most uses. (besides your...

    How many other lies?

    With all due respect, you dont really read (or comprehend) what many are posting. If you look back at what I have written in this thread, I say that I spent over 2 years on a keto based diet in the past. I say how 'easy' it was and yes effective for me. BUT this was before I actually...

    How many other lies?

    @MR. BMJ posted a great article by Lyle McDonald. One of the most respected and revolutionary thinkers on sports nutrition and bodybuilding for the past 20+ years. Picking up where Dan Duchane left off and combining a mixture of observing what actually works with ACTUAL scientific study...

    How many other lies?

    WOW! Interested to hear how it works for you! I have never done even a full 24 hour. I thought of starting to pull a few here and there. Is that normal for you on BP? I know the bigger dudes in general have higher bp by nature of larger body mass. You definitely dont look 'small'...

    Oh SH!T, dont compare me to @Swiper! That dude is NEXT LEVEL legit. I am just an older dude who for many years trained mostly for strength is trying to stay in shape these days. MUCH respect to a physique on another planet from me that SWIPER has!

    How many other lies?

    That vid had some cool info I am going to try to integrate. I think I will randomly do a few 24 hour fasts. I have never fasted a full 24 hours. Used to do 20+ hour ones 3x per week for a while. I think I will do a few. My dr was telling me to research 'dry' fasting also. I asked...

    How many other lies?

    @genetic freak some interesting info here. (and also others who adapt full keto/carnivore and might wonder why going back to carbs results in increased body fat). This guy presents some interesting information about fasting and relating to gene expression. Also what he has posted explains...

    So I saw this and for some reason reminded me of something. ;) (worth the watch and relevant) https://www.instagram.com/reel/CtMuJxLp_44/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

    How many other lies?

    @testboner Thanks so much for thoughtful replies. I do have experience with KETO. 2+ years of TKD in my 20's. I know it to be the 'easiest' method of fat loss for me. (takes the least amount of planning is what I really mean). But the other mental aspects made it the hardest regimen...

    How many other lies?

    @testboner One other thing I wanted to add. AWESOME for your wife. I knew of the connection of blood levels of ketone bodies working to prevent seizures. Dr D'Agostino did a TED talk about ketones and treating cancer. (my brother and good friend both battle cancer so I started...

    How many other lies?

    @testboner you look FANTASTIC. No doubt it has worked for you on a number of levels. Interesting to hear the backstory and can understand how that may factor into you decision. Had to look up CKD but I see now. Questions. When going to carnivore, besides the overall health...

    How many other lies?

    Or....it is just a form of Heisenburg' s uncertainty principal. The mere attempt to observe will make it impossible to properly know all the variables as your observation will alter the natural state of what you are observing. Of course he was talking about subatomic particles....but hey you...

    How many other lies?

    @genetic freak you make MANY good points. Insulin sensitivity is a HUGE part of the equation. Things like carb timing can work incredible, but you have to get to a point of being lean enough that you can utilize these things. I use carb timing now every single day. I ALWAYS focus my...
