Exactly. If someone is bored with keto they aren't doing it right. The quality of my food has gone way up, and I feel way better. A win win.

They would be out of a job if everyone followed Dr Westmans recommendations.

I do still fall off the wagon too much though ...sometimes it is Aperol, sometimes ice cream , I'll always be addicted to carbs and they tug me on almost every visit to a shop.

Indeed indeed. Especially when they say, “pharmaceutical companies developed a drug, so they dont have to starve patients to control their seizers.” The fact is they were never starved! They were most likely satiated by eating a keto genic diet, and were only eating once per day, BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT HUNGRY! I’ve been eating zero carb now over 6 years. I’M NEVER HUNGRY! What you do on a ketogenic diet is you replace ALL carbs with fat. Thats a net gain in caloric intake (but calories are irrelevant). Eating more than before. But starving? Two Docs that dont know their ass from hole in the ground.

My GP sent me to a Keto doctor (saved my life) two years ago. Now he is concerned my LDLs are slightly elevated (this without taking statins since I started Keto). He wants me to talk to a nutritionist. No way. I haven't felt this good since I got out of college (I am 60 now). I just wish I had done it 40 years ago. 160 pounds down. Look good in the mirror (except for the flabby skin - some sins are harder to come back from). Tried several times the low fat approach, and it always ended in tears in about a year.

After losing 44 pounds in 5 months (226 to 182) on a ketogenic diet, I found both my cardiologist and my PCP to be intrigued and wanting more information. My triglycerides were cut in half ( 139 to 69), and that got their attention. When I told them my GERD disappeared and my blood pressure was down an average of 10-15 points, they were even more intrigued. I felt that they were open to hearing about the health benefits of the keto diet.

When we stop treating the consumption of food as a primarily pleasurable event in our lives we will get rid of the mindset of getting bored with eating certain foods.

[@Kyarrix]

True but it is not reasonable to expect everyone to want to treat eating as solely fuel. People enjoy good cooking and eating good food with people they love. That is how we have evolved. As with many things there is a middle ground between treating food as a pleasurable recreational activity and solely as nutrition or fuel. Right now it is too far in the direction of recreational activity, we have to bring it back towards something we do more for nutrition and fuel while not losing the other component entirely. What you said was absolutely correct, we should not treat it as a primarily pleasurable event. That doesn't mean we can't enjoy our food and bond over good cooking with our loved ones but it does mean that the focus should be brought back to what food should be, nutrition to support our health.

I cut out coffee and got constipated, so went back to one coffee per day and it solves that problem with a tiny bit of MiraLAX or a prune daily. There is nothing wrong with some low carb fruits (berries), veggies, and nuts and dairy to turn Carnivore into Ketovore. Adding back in some of the low carb whole foods to go from Carnivore to Ketovore brought down my LDL to more reasonable levels and I still feel amazing! CGM showed that eating them hardly made my blood sugars budge at all. It is a wonderful compromise once you hit your ideal body weight. I am even able to lose weight on Ketovore when I do intermittent fasting too.

I'm a little bored eating rib eye every day but why should eating be fun? I eat for nourishment and to try to get healthy again. I find that I feel best on a beef diet.

[@Kyarrix]

You're following the strictest form of carnivore, the lion diet? Beef, water and salt exclusively? Maybe you could vary it up with different cuts of beef. Tri-tip is looked down upon but I find that pasture raised tri-tip (possibly grain finished although that isn't ideal) is absolutely delicious. Do you eat eggs? Every now and then I will make bacon in the oven. I don't like doing it often because I don't want my house to smell of bacon but if the weather is nice and I can open all the windows I might make bacon and eat that over the course of the next few days. Make an omelette with goat cheese and bacon in it and that's a nice change from beef. Wild caught salmon is a good food. We don't have to be 100% exclusively beef, salt and water although Dr Chaffee would say that this is the best mode for getting healthy. It is definitely useful for people who are sick or trying to determine which foods are unhealthy for them. The problem with starting a pure carnivore diet can be oxalate dumping. For those who have eaten lots of fruits and vegetables before starting the carnivore keto stopping all vegetables immediately can cause oxalate dumping. If you're not experiencing that then you're good. I love Dr Chaffee but he does engage in hyperbole. When he says that plants are trying to kill us he's right but it also opens the door for what he is saying to be disregarded. Plants do have compounds that are not good for us. But it depends on the individual. If your people going back have eaten a specific fruit or vegetable for hundreds or thousands of years you are probably reasonably well adapted to eating it in moderation. This is why some of us can eat collard greens or spinach without ill effect but others can't. There is no one size fits all but there are elements that are applicable to everyone. We all have to avoid sugar, processed foods, processed carbohydrates whether they are white or so-called whole grain. There is almost no difference between white flour and whole wheat flour for example. We have to get rid of pro-inflammatory ultra processed grain and seed oils. This is true for everyone. How much fruit and vegetables an individual can tolerate while remaining healthy varies from person to person. I find that I do better on 90 to 95% carnivore some small amount of fruits and vegetables, far below this threshold for keto. 10 to 15g a day maximum. Give tri-tip a try. We have a butcher store near us, Double D Meats that is fantastic. We can get a 3 lb tri-tip, cut it up at home, salt it and let it sit open in the fridge for a couple of days, when we cook it we get a great sear and it is delicious. Very hard to get bored with that. Congratulations on your progress!

With her equipment, she easily determined my current prescription was too strong. My eyes actually "improved" and needed a lower prescription! PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS: KETO DIET IS NOT EATING KETO FOODS. IT"S GETTING YOUR BODY INTO A STATE OF KETOSIS. This is not easy to accomplish, you need an inexpensive ketometer and knowledge of priming your body to start using fat as fuel. The best instructor is Dr. Boz who teaches you to be patient and rely on intermittent fasting and autophagy to rid yourself of fat once and for all.
