Day 65 - Happy Sunday All! 🌞 Morning Glucose - 75 BP - 96/63 Day 6 of our metformin pause trial. She was only on metformin 500mg once a day (in the evening) for 11 days. Metformin has a short half-life and should clear the body by day 3-4 after stopping it. So, now we're seeing what her body will do with no metformin. Blood Sugar Yesterday, her blood sugar was below 100 over half of the day, even dropping down to the 60s at one point midday. The highest her sugar peaked at was 120s. We didn't make any changes to her diet. She's still eating beef, chicken, eggs, beef hot dogs, spam, plain yogurt, cottage cheese, and vanilla or chocolate protein powder. She does use about 1/2 tsp of monk fruit sweetener for her mug cakes. She's still taking her enzymes according to fat grams, and she's spreading out her enzymes throughout her meal. I add MCT oil and collagen peptides to her eggs, and I add collagen peptides and creatine powder to her mug cakes. She's going to continue taking her 10 units of long-acting insulin every morning and evening. If her blood sugars continue to stay stable, she doesn't require fast-acting insulin, and her A1C comes down further, we're going to talk about reducing her long-acting and see how it goes. Bowel Movements She still had a total of 7 BMs yesterday but a few of them were very small, and she had no diarrhea at all. They were all soft and formed. BP & Dizziness She had some dizziness this morning getting up to her commode, and this morning's BP was almost identical to yesterday's. But, as she wakes up and begins to drink more water, and she doesn't have watery diarrhea that starts to worsen midday, the dizziness lessens, and her BP increases. All good signs. She took a rest from exercise yesterday, but today she'll be "riding her bike." She has PT again tomorrow 💪 I just pray that we continue to see progress. One day at a time 🙏

@wilsonhlthcoach Did you eliminate everything that tastes sweet like sugar free items? Diet sodas?

The things I did wrong when I first started carnivore: Nothing. I ate all the fatty red meat I wanted. I ate all the eggs I wanted. I ate all the butter I wanted. I used all the salt I wanted. I drank all the water I wanted. I listened to my body tell me what it needed. And in six months, my body changed so much that I didn't even recognize myself anymore. I was looking at a whole new woman in the mirror, and I couldn't believe it. I've never in my life found a way of eating that I didn't struggle with. Until carnivore. This way of eating just works.

One of the most common things people say when they try to “educate” me about my own body is this: “If you didn’t lose weight in a calorie deficit, then you weren’t in a calorie deficit.” What they’re really saying is: You measured wrong. You misunderstood. You did it wrong. You’re lying. And that is incredibly dismissive. I didn’t wake up one day overweight and decide to try something new. I spent over four decades trying everything people told me would work. Every diet. Every program. Every restriction cycle. Every round of shame when it stopped working again. It would work a little. Then it would stop. Then I would blame myself. No one ever addressed why I was eating. No one addressed binge behavior. No one addressed metabolic damage from years of restriction. No one addressed insulin resistance. No one addressed the mental side of living in a body that felt broken. So when someone casually tells me my experience “wasn’t real,” what they’re actually doing is dismissing decades of effort. If you’ve lived that cycle too, I want you to hear this clearly: You weren’t lazy. You weren’t broken. You weren’t lying. You weren’t failing on purpose. A lot of people are trying very hard inside systems that never addressed the real problem. Fixing my metabolism changed everything for me. That’s why I talk so much about it. That’s why I wrote my book. If someone tries to tell you your experience didn’t happen the way you lived it, they are not the authority on your body. You are.❤️

How about a word of encouragement and congratulations to my 52-year-old brother Jon who is doing well after his kidney transplant last month. After a couple of very difficult weeks, it appears his kidney is working well and his dialysis sessions are no longer needed. He’s doing all the right things from a lifestyle standpoint, which has required some effort and discipline. This is after 6+ years on 3x/week dialysis. Jon’s journey has been a strong motivation for me over the past decade.

I am still in sheer awe after the viewing of @realDaveFeldman’s The Cholesterol Code documentary at #CoSci. The stories of people alleviating profound human suffering are beyond moving; words cannot describe. I spent 60%+ of the documentary crying; I couldn’t help myself. I think far too often, the LMHR community is misunderstood and reduced to caricatures, all portrayed as some contrarian “LDL deniers.” In reality, many are simply vulnerable human beings…human beings just trying to reclaim their lives. For me personally, witnessing profound human suffering on a daily basis, this is much more than a number on a lab report or trivial X debates or pointless diet wars. It is about real people feeling alive again. And every person deserves a chance to find healing.❤️

Variations of the phrase "Do not fear" are repeated more than 100 times in the bible. That message must be pretty important. Carry this message as your shield. It's light as a feather and stronger than steel.

Humans evolved under dietary conditions very different from those created by modern agriculture and industrial food, and many modern diseases may arise from this mismatch. Much of the modern medicine & nutrition advice is based on a complete lack of understanding of this basic truth...

Good wisdom!

If you think Pharaoh was the real enemy at the Red Sea, you’re reading the story too quickly. Most of us look at the Red Sea story like it’s a victory lap; God opens the water, Pharaoh’s army gets wiped out, and Israel walks away free. We treat it like the "happily ever after" moment of the Bible. But if you actually look at the Scripture, something far worse hunted the Israelites than Pharoh’s pursuit. In Exodus 14, as soon as they see the dust from the Egyptian chariots, they start losing it. They weren’t just panicking; they literally ask Moses, "Was it because there weren't enough graves in Egypt that you brought us here to die?" They actually told him it would have been "better" to stay as slaves. Keep in mind, these people just saw ten plagues. They saw the Nile turn to blood. They watched the land go dark. But the second things got tight, fear deleted their memory of the miracles. And we do the exact same thing. How fast do you start romanticizing your past when your current situation gets uncomfortable? How quickly do you start missing the things God actually rescued you from, just because the future feels a bit blurry? Even the miracle itself wasn't instant. Exodus 14 says God drove the sea back with a strong wind "all night." It was a slow, step-by-step walk. It wasn't a magic trick; it was a process. But look at what happens just one chapter later in Exodus 16. They start complaining about food. They start talking about how they "sat by the meat pots" and had plenty of bread in Egypt. That’s a lie. They were in forced labor. They weren't enjoying a buffet; they were being worked to death. But anxiety is a hell of an editor. It makes you remember the "comforts" of your old life while completely cropping out the chains that kept you there. Then you get to Exodus 32. Moses is up on the mountain for forty days. No updates, or any signal he’s coming down soon. So the people go to Aaron and say, "Make us gods who will go before us." They didn't stop believing in God you know, They just couldn't handle not seeing Him. Egypt had trained them to only trust what they could touch. So when God didn't move on their timeline, they went back to what felt familiar. That’s the real issue here. They were out of Egypt, but Egypt was still in their heads. They were physically free, but they were still using a slave’s toolkit to handle fear and delay. So, when things stall in your life, what do you start building? When you don't get the answer you wanted, what "golden calf" do you reach for? Is it a drink? Is it an old relationship? Is it just a desperate need to control everything around you? The real threat wasn't the Egyptian army behind them. It was the urge to run back to what was predictable. The beauty of this story isn't just the parting of the sea. It’s that God didn't walk away when they started acting out. He kept sending the manna and kept showing up for them. He didn't just pull them out of a country; He stayed with them while He pulled the "slave-thinking" out of their hearts. Leaving your past is a one-time event. But learning how to be free? That takes time. Be honest with yourself; What part of your "Egypt" are you still defending? Are you rewriting your history because you’re scared of the unknown? If God took away every problem you have right now, would you still be a slave on the inside? #Christianity #BiblicalTruth #FaithOverFeelings #Exodus #Deliverance Ellis Enobun
