Carnivore guilt
Hello all! 37f here.
I have dabbled in the carnivore lifestyle before. I did 60 days once and I looked and felt the best I ever have. That was about a year ago. I'm trying to restart.
My number one reason is to heal my body and gut. I've had constipation and bloat for probably 6 years and just been dealing with it because my tests come back clear. I dont knownwhats wrong with me. But carbs bloat me so bad. Ive tried everything to fix it. Also, weight loss of course.
I am trying to start this lifestyle and am having guilt about my husband thinking I'm not fun anymore. He's supportive of it, but i feel like he thinks I'm no fun because going out to eat is what we do for fun since I don't drink alcohol. We used to go out for cheesecake, ice cream, Mexican food
Can anybody relate or have words of wisdom? I know I want to do it. I did it for a week so far and my gut was already happier. I'm just dealing with mental gymnastics thinking about missing the fun foods.
I've had to do dirty carnivore this week because we are traveling for work. I get a ribeye and everyone always makes comments when I get no sides and I get self conscious and feel like weirdo.
It's nice to have a community to talk to!
