I have been eating only three chicken thighs twice a day to lose weight because it is cheap and inexpensive meat compared to say beef or pork. It's working even with the occasional cheat day here and there. The problem I am having is I have been feeling tired all the time lately. What do you suggest I add to my diet that is low carb / carnivore friendly that might help correct this issue?
>>21734399>doing a meme redditor diet to feel tired all day to own the chudsGo back
>>21734399The high fat content is what's msking you sleepy.Swap one of those meals with breast.Also, stop doing meme diets.
>>21734399you aren't eating enough caloriescarnivore diet also requires you eat organ meat for essential minerals. start eating livers.
>>21734399Eat some berries.
>>21734399Potato. Not even kidding. Lost 85 off of just chicken and one potato a day. Plenty of energy.
carbs are the only thing that will make you not tired so either deal with it or just have a little rice or something if you're not autistic
>>21734399My advice to you is that you should just kill yourself instead of embarrassing yourself on a Friday night on a pedo image board.
>>21734399So you eat 1.5 lb of chicken thighs a day? That's only about 1200-1400 calories assuming that you eat the skin. Are you a woman?
>>21734399id recommend eating something resembling a balanced diet and not this retarded meme shit
>>21734399It's supposed to be a low carb diet, not a no carb diet lmao
>>21734835That kind of deficit can be fine if OP has enough body fat to be able metabolize the difference. Its not that high of a bar. Op try a leaner and more varied diet. It can still be done cheaply enough. Mix in some lean pork and chicken breast. Some fresh veg, a little fruit, and lean dairy. I'm not going to give you some internet meme bro science bullshit here. This is just what I found works for me. Too much fat makes me feel like ass . Im not disputing that some people find that diet workable, but not for me.
>>21734399you might not be getting enough food in you. i would advise that you start buying whole chickens, you get a better deal that way and you can eat breast. also use the carcass to make stock and drink the stocki was pure carnivore for a bit but i started eating avocados and spinach because there are certain nutrients that meats lack such as folate
>>21734429Can you translate that nonsense to English?
>>21734399people get tired on low carb because your muscles store and burn carbs for quick energy, your brain can use like 120g of carbs per day, without carbs your body doesn't hold onto as much fluid so dehydration is more likely, etc.you could also be lacking vitamin C which might be worsening things. people on carnivore usually say you need to eat raw/rare meat otherwise you cook out all the vitamin C.if you really want to keep sticking with low carb then try at least eating some berries to see if that helps, it would still be low carb and give you some vitamin C.
>>21734840>>21734429>>21734522>>21734840People who don't know what "meme" means.Pay no attention, OP. These incels don't understand weight issues.
>>21734399Dude. Eat some goddamn vegetables. Low carb just means eating foods with low carb content, not zero carbs. Get some broccoli, cabbage, bell peppers, or whatever into your diet. Just check the carb content per 100g, and eat however much you need to hit your desired carb number.I've been doing keto for dieting, where I keep my total net carbs for the day under 30g, and I'm still eating like 3-400g of vegetables or so every day.Also, three chicken thighs is like 600 calories. You're starving yourself, dummy. Thats why you're feeling tired all the time.
>>21735081>People who don't know what "meme" means.I'm sure you read The Selfish Gene cover to cover.
It's cheaper to buy whole chickens
>>21734399You are trans carnivore you'll get kidney stones
>>21734399Chimpanzees are omnivores eating mostly vegetables and fruits though sometimes eating meat when vegetation is scarce
You need to switch over to ground beef, eat probably a pound or more of it a dayRuminate meat really needs to be the majority of what you consumeYou're probably not getting enough fat
>>21735080You really only need vitamin C if you're taking in carbsVitamin C and glucose compete for the same receptors to move around the body, if you have a low blood glucose then red meat has enough vitamin C you don't need to macro dose it the way slop addicted grain eaters insist you need toScurvy is caused by excess carbs
>let me just eat large amounts of 'this specific food' instead of just of just eating normal amounts of regular food this is why you fat retards will always be fat retards. you eat 3 chicken thighs twice a day (6 chicken thighs holy fuck) thinking somehow it will make you less of a fat retard.meanwhile a normal person would eat 1 chicken thigh with rice or starch and vegetable twice a day (that's 2 chicken thighs for you retard). this is way healthier than and less caloric dense than 6 fucking thighs, and spreads out the nutrients on the metabolic spectrum leaving you feeling fuller longer.tl;dr you are a fat retard that eats too much. eating 'singular specific food' cuz diet says so won't help if you still eat a fuck ton
>>21735137Name one other animal that needs to regularly consume medicine for indigestion
>>21735136You still need vitamin C. We don't make it. You will get scurvy on a carnivore diet if you're only eating fully cooked meat like OP is doing. You need more vitamin C when consuming carbs but cutting out carbs doesn't make your requirement zero. Meat has vitamin C but heat destroys it which is why raw/rare meat can still give vitamin C but fully cooked chicken won't. >slop addicted grain eatersSome people do fine on grains, some don't. There are plenty of high level athletes eating grains and doing well.
>>21735140A lot of animals will eat things for medicinal reasons, humans aren't unique in that.It's true that some people may be eating things that don't agree with their biology and taking medications for that, but it doesn't mean the food is inherently bad for everyone. Some people being lactose intolerant doesn't mean nobody should have milk.
>>21735141He has to get off the chicken, especially if its low quality chicken because it's fed all the grains and legumes we don't want and the toxins are in the fatWhen it comes to athletes they're abusing their bodies to achieve something, nothing they do is healthyAll of them are on a steady cocktail of anti-inflammatories and rehab protocols as it isMaybe their performance will benefit from having quick access to glycogen, but they're still giving themselves cancer and alzheimers all the same
>>21735142There's a whole industry around treating acid indigestion, heart burn, diarrhea, bloating, gas, from supposedly normal foodsNot to mention othee stuff like eczema, tooth decayAnother uniquely human problem is how fucked up our teeth are, they're just so crooked and constantly trying to rot right out of our mouthsPeople would rather take a pill than reconsider hey maybe this stuff I'm eating is causing problems
>>21735081Carnivore is absolutely a meme diet. It's also not working for OP.
>>21735144>you need to eat carnivore because grains and sugar are poison>you can't eat meat that ate grains because the toxins from grains and sugar persistcult behavior
>>21735607OP here, it is working for me in the sense I am losing weight and it helps me control other health issues I have that eating carb heavy food exacerbates . It's obvious after reading comments in this thread I need to make some adjustments to it though.
>>21734399When I did something similar I would fill out some calories with cheese, eggs.
>>21735610No offense, dude, but it's a fad diet, and it's unhealthy and restrictive. If it were working for you, you wouldn't be asking for advice on an anime website. You need to eat a variety of foods. You're missing a ton of nutrients in your diet and it's going to catch up with you in serious health complications.
>>21735050>you might not be getting enough food>therefore eat the lowest calorie part of the chicken, displacing fattier parts, lowering calorie intake even more
>>21735609I agree with you that its a cult but your logic flow is ridiculous and bolsters his worldview
>>21735140I guess you should live naked in a cave by your logic. Why dont you?
>>21735609you eat grass lol
>>21734399>What do you suggest I addYou are missing all vegetables? Without carbs you have less brain food, so not enough dopamine and serotonin. Maybe it's a signal to break from the diet on the cheat days and have some carbs. Maybe you also need a "veggies" supplement.
>>21734399>The problem I am having is I have been feeling tired all the time lately. You're malnourished. Eat more saturated fats to aid in vitamin absorption.
>>21735050breast is one of the most delicious and simple things to cook, do you really not know that? just because i said he can eat breast doesn't mean i'm telling him to eat less overall, it's not unfeasible to eat a whole small chicken for the day, and not very expensive either. i told him to add in some avocado and to drink broth too which will obviously increase caloric intakei'm not mad i'm just disappointed, you're on ck, you should at least know how to cook an excellent chicken breast anon.
>>21735811>>21735642my b had to reply myself instead of (You) because i'm so awesome and smart
>>21734399Try to have more read meat OP. You can get cheap fatty pork cuts or stew type beef cuts and stiry fry them or use this method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26j4Uu0c6Jk Also, if you're just trying to lose weight why not just add vegetables to your diet and switch to keto?
>>21734399Steak umm and eggs
>>21735148the reason we have medicine is the same reason why we have cooking. we cook because it saves us from having to spend all fucking day chewing and digesting raw food. we have taken a process that was slow and internal and made it fast and external to relieve pressure on our bodies to just be useless all day eating machines to only needing to eat for a little bit and then having all this energy for our brains and more time to be intelligent. it's the same for medicine. instead of relying on our bodies and the trauma of being sick we can speed up the healing externally. yes, this has made us a little weaker but the tradeoff is that you don't have to be an ubermench perfect genetic specimen to survive anymore past 30 and those people who might have been culled from such selection are still useful to our population as a whole with their added intelect, companionship, or at the very least labor.
>>21735644nothing i say is going to get him to change his worldview because he's a retarded cultist
Add eggs, and some plants like cruciferous vegetables, citrus, berries, and beans. If you can, also add some dairy. Realistically, you should actually get into cooking with spices and herbs though. Bland diets are for dogs and not sustainable. You’ll likely end up bingeing.
>>21735610>and it helps me control other health issues I have that eating carb heavy food exacerbateswhat issues? unless you have blood sugar issues then in my experience the things about "carbs" worsening anything is too much of a sweeping generalization. some people may have issues with grains, some people may have an issue with fructose or lactose, but nobody seems to truly have an issue with every type of carb.
>>21735647Humans have been wearing the skins of animals they killed and ate for our entire existence so there's not much need to be naked, but I agree people should spend as much time out doors getting fresh air and sunlight as they're able to>>21735972We don't need to cook meat to digest itDrying it helps to preserve it, but if you can get clean fresh meat you should eat it raw or as close to raw as possible
How much do you eat? Add eggs. Buy ground meat - pork or beef, doesn't matter. You probably need to eat more. I like to eat chicken or beef or pork liver, it's cheap where I live and has 10x the nutrients.
>>21734399You need to eat livers, hearts, and kidneys too
A big mistake people make with carnivore is not eating enough during meal timesYou should eat as much as you want until you don't feel a desire to eat anymoreIt's difficult to overeat on meat if that's all you're having during meal timeAnd for dessert what I like to have if I've finished all my meat and I'm not sure if I want more, just a half tbsp of butterAnd usually that extra hit of fat is all I wanted and I feel satisfied
>>21736347Heat breaks down tough tissues like collagen, making meat easier for the body to break down and require less energy for digestion.
>>21734399Eat a black cock. It's fucking packed with protein and testosterone
>>21734399frozen mixed veggies with a drizzle of evo and s&p
>>21736857>evoThanks Rachel Ray
>>21736591We don't necessarily want our food broken down a lot before eating it, it'll lead to overeating
>>21734399https://www.fatcalc.com/mfl/I highly suggest taking this into consideration, from personal experience with IF.
>>21734399You need beef, it has macro micronutrients
Today I've had 2 clean all beef hotdogs, a thick cut piece of pork belly, a half pound chuck eye steak, 2 tbsp grass fed butter, and coffee with a splash of creamThis is the proper way to eat. Was grotesque watching my family eat donutsEven the smell is gross to me now
>>21738691donuts cooked in ghee instead of sneed oils are delicious and worth trying once for a special occasion imo
>>21734399Just fast if you want to lose weight. Also eat red meat.
>>21738896I would definitely use lard, but wheat really fucks me upI wonder if you can donut with rice flour
>>21734399>high protein, low(relative) fat, no carbYou also probably need more electrolytes
>>21734399>The problem I am having is I have been feeling tired all the time lately.>cheap and inexpensive meat compared to say beef or pork.Only beef is nutrient dense enough to justify itself price wise. You're not saving in quality terms. Just get ground beef or process a Subprime 15-30 lb cut yourself. Poultry and Pork are fed absolute trash, and the Omega-6 overload gets passed on to you. Tiredness can also be SODIUM DEFICIENCY. Get electrolytes and salt your shit liberally. Under 25g carbs should be fine-- you can be looser with paleo/primal eating with lower glycemic/insulin index vegetables (sweet potato, carrot). You'll lose more weight adding muscle-- load up and work out, get steps in. Try bulletproof coffee.
