I would find it hard to go out with friends and enjoy a meal and not eat a little bread, vegetables, fruits, milk or egg products.
Maybe I just don’t know much about the carnivore diet???
I am not carnivore. I started with a strict carnivore diet as an elimination diet of nothing but beef, salt and water. Cured my health problems and then started adding other foods back in one at a time to see what sat well with me and what didn't. Learned a LOT about my body in the course of a year. Nowadays I would say I eat a ketogenic animal based diet. Meat and butter/cheese with a few eggs (lots of eggs don't set well with me so I just use them occasionally for a binder in recipes). That's just where I feel and work the best. Likely different for everyone. But I would highly suggest to anyone that isn't 100% satisfied with their current health to try a strict elimination diet like I did. Not much to lose besides weight.
As for delicious, I never get tired of ribeye, side pork, porterhouses, good pork chops, and smoked brisket. I have no problem with chicken and fish, but I have never really liked them and still don't so I don't eat them very often. Halibut or fresh trout from an ice cold mountain stream are the only ones I don't mind. Ribeye and New York strip trump all in my opinion.
Do I miss the sweets and treats? Yes. Am I willing to go back to dealing with my asthma and joint pain to eat them? Absolutely not.
As for going out with your friends, do you enjoy going out with your friends or do you enjoy a little bread, etc.? Why does one have to eat or drink to enjoy good company? I do catch a bit of ribbing when I go out for having nothing on my plate besides a big pile of meat, but amongst friends, it is always in good fun and often opens a healthy, respectful dialogue. |
Hardest part about a carnivore diet...
