April Challenges

When I wasn't logging for a period of time, I pre-logged a seltzer water for every day during my planned no-log streak.0

I almost never log. I gave that up. My streak is almost 900 days. How? I come here and read and/or post. If you log in, it will keep your streak alive. You only lose it after 24 hours of no activity at all.0 -
OK thanks guys.

I ask as I've had a couple people ask about what's going on as far as that and when we're starting the threads.
Is @FIT_Goat hosting AAA, or do we have someone hosting it? If not, I will, but if it's already taken care of, I can do Ad Lib.
Also, on a side note -- I had an idea for May: Meatless May. That gives a vegetarian counter to AAA/Meativore May for those who are more vegetarian leaning.0 -

Oooh...that's just evil.

The streak is simply logging into MFP once a day. It actually has nothing to do with logging food.0 -
I am all in for AAA. Already have been doing it a bit while trying to do the 30 days of ground beef. Had to give up due to gallbladder issues. Have switched to egg whites with coconut oil and ground beef as my main meals. So, I don't think I can give up MCT/Coconut oil (need a way to keep up my fat), but everything else is totally doable. Although I may have to have a starting date of April 2. Have a wedding to attend April 1, but will be doing my best to make it an AAA day!0

I really don't see the purpose of only ground beef, for most people. If you want other meats, then go for it. I think the ground beef is just going to make it less likely you will enjoy the experiment. I am doing it just to prove that I can. I know a few people are also trying it, to see if it works differently for them. Most of those people have been mostly or all meat before. I don't know that I would jump right into ground beef, myself, if I was coming from a more mixed diet.
All that to say, don't feel bad if you didn't do well on ground beef. Enjoy the eggs and ground beef. Have a steak or chicken wings. How about some scallops and butter? A rack of ribs is also awesome. Keep it interesting.0 -
I had bunch of ground beef leftover from starting the 30 day ground beef challenge before the gallbladder flare up. Need to finish it but easing it up with egg whites. It is also easier to keep it simple because of work. I do plan to eat a wide variety of meats. Just need to be careful and see what may cause another flareup. Experimenting a bit.0

I agree with @Fit_Goat! The ground beef challenge isn't for anyone who is trying to be meativore! I would have given up by now if I'd tried to stick with ground beef a year ago! Enjoy all of the foods from the animal kingdom, and see exactly what it can do for you! I'm also doing the ground beef only to prove to myself that I can. I feel I've been keto for so long now that it's like second nature, for me, and felt a challenge couldn't hurt.
Good luck to everyone who is joining the AS A, and Ad Libitum challenges!0 -

I can be the host for the AAA challenge. I think a vegetarian challenge would be a great idea for May.0 -
Loving these challenges. Really inspiring me to take a Dave Asprey style biohacking approach and observe how I feel when eating different foods. Learning!0
-
Still on track for getting a jump on April, though I know I'll have to tighten the reigns a bit once it starts. I love how I can mix together any left over meat that's shredded, with some bacon and some cheese, and it makes something delicious.0

In for Ad Lib.0
-
I am going to try for the All Animal, I had to drop out last year. I didn't drink enough water, got dehydrated and it freaked me out. I need something to get me back on track, I'm on day 2 of an egg fast, so it should be a good transition.0

I think even logging in and posting on the forums or a status update on your wall keeps your streak.
You just need to log in daily and that's it..you get credited for the day. (trust me I've been around for awhile and lots of times in the past I didn't post anything or log food and I still have my streak!) 0 -
Today is day 4 for my AAA. Weight down 2.8 lbs since Tuesday. I'm not counting Monday as my starting weight- I'm sure there was a lot of extra water weight hanging around from the weekend. Feeling good. I've got a big rib-eye with butter and bacon planned for dinner tonight. What could be wrong with that? Nothing!0
-
I finished what was left of my dark chocolate last night, and I'm going to activate my Sam's Club membership today and see what kind of deals I can get on meat. I'm looking forward to it, it's like I'm a little kid going to a fair or something!0

Sounds good. I'll host Ad Lib, then. I've got a sticky up for it already.0
