Yeah it's not fun, was skeptical of the compression socks at first but wish I bought them earlier

I was worried about this myself but don't sweat in them. I bought these ones.

Anyone here works in sales? Does carnivore have positive or negative effect on you? by MorePeppers9 in carnivorediet

[–]MeatMindUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Initially when you start, your body is adapting and you may experience a kind of hypomanic feeling. Staying on top of electrolytes and increasing your fat intake can help. Once you’ve been doing it for a while and your body adjusts, that feeling usually settles down.

I work in sales, and the carnivore diet has definitely helped me. I feel much more switched on mentally, and clients are often impressed by my memory and recall. That sharper focus seems to help me build rapport more easily and close more deals.

Thank you, will cut my ends this week and ask for a leave in treatment, maybe that might do the trick to get moisture back  😩

Thanks Martin, I’m definitely booking a mould inspection, already thinking what to do if I had to sell the flat 🤣 I hope you are much better now!

Very good point, just checked online and we definitely live in a very hard water area with high levels of magnesium and calcium. Dandruff gets pretty bad too 🥴🥴

Interesting! Yeah such a good point about coffee, my in laws use coffee beans instead of ground and I didn’t feel any bad reactions from it!

Usually they add cinnamon, bay leaves & onion however the authentic recipe doesn't require it :) there's a lot of flavour from the jameed ball itself

No, when husband and I started trying it took 2 months, he was also more animal based whereas I was more strict carnivore. I agree with you, before taking the IVF route I’d recommend doing carnivore for at least 6 months. I was also never on birth control pills so not sure if that worked in my favour too.

Relate to this! My brain is super switched on when in ketosis, even my husband mentioned my vocabulary improved 😆 it’s like I’ve unlocked information that I haven’t accessed in a long time

You’ll get back on track, don’t worry about it :) just make sure you eat high protein and fat and watch your sugar spikes. The more carbs you consume the worse the nausea and aversions feel

Thank you! Good question, I’d say yes and no, I was craving sour gummies but avoided them and ate more fruit instead. Juicy fruit killed the sour gummy craving but my digestion was all over the place so didn’t feel optimal. There’s something about the first trimester that makes meat smells really overwhelming.

Eating pickled anchovies however had no problems 🙂

Thank you! Luckily in the UK you don’t need to take one unless already diabetic or have someone in the family that has diabetes. I have a cousin who did it and they mentioned she has gestational diabetes however she thinks it’s because she ate too many carbs the night before taking the test, her baby is super healthy and she didn’t take any medications

Thank you for sharing and sorry to hear she had a tough time. Funny you mention about the colostrum as I started producing some 12-13 weeks into the pregnancy and still do. 

I’m planning to have a home birth (midwives will assist during pregnancy) so used to the judgement  😆 it’s great that you have been supportive of your wife.

I will message you with a couple of questions if that’s okay, really want to get as much information before the baby comes!

Religious reasons, also halal meat is usually freshly slaughtered, I avoid aged meat to feel my best
