Travel threw me off the carnivore wagon. Just couldn’t say no to friends cooking where veg was the centerpiece and little meat. Even ate homemade ice cream. Somehow lost more weight instead of gaining. BUT MY STOMACH!! Never again. Health first. It’s not worth the pain,but I appreciate the learning experience. Back home and thriving on meat again.

My inferior synthetic T4 seems to be getting me there for now. Since bumping up to 75, I’ve had 6 days of no brain fog and no deep fatigue. I’ll take it. Narrowed down I feel best on beef & butter. Iodine a bit tricky. Using with restraint. Low and slow. Feeling back in the game of life.

Got back my thyroid antibody test. TPO was 35, which put me on the positive scale at low end, but it seems carni docs/experts say anything above 0 or 5 is positive for Hashi’s. But now I’m confused as to iodine. Seems to be conflicting info from carni doctors on how to use or if at all with Hashi’s. Glad Dr.. Bright is here tomorrow.

Still alive. Day 13 on thyroid meds and starting to see light. I have never been so sick and for a solid month. Working within my energy envelope, consistent with my carnivore nutrition. Hanging w/the Browns has a great interview w/Dr. Bright with details on how to dose iodine, days on/days off, skin patching, etc.

This may be a Hail Mary pass, but going to embark on the Lion diet. Yesterday my symptoms of fatigue were unbearable. Just going to sleep an hour later the night before, completely train wrecked me. Started my day off with ground beef and salt. I actually woke up craving that. Cutting out all dairy, eggs, and other meats. Let's see what happens.
