100 Days of Keto Chow

We had to run off quickly this morning to the Carnivore conference. Took the toll turnpike and ended up 45 minutes late. The information presented thus far has been really great. My key takeaway so far is that plants are not your friend and actively work to prevent you from being healthy after devouring them.

I’m still at the same 31 lbs lost. Not too worried. Last night we went to Outback Steakhouse, I had a drink whilst everyone else had steaks. Today at the carnivore conference there was a lunch, I had my Keto Chow ? our friend Siobhan rubbed it in a little.

Well, another short update. We got in late last night and needed to be at the conference at 6 am. I did bring a bunch of video equipment to the show but I had to run off to the nearest LabCorp right after the conference began to get my weekly blood test.

I also forgot to get some cash for of people want to pay via cash. Bit of an oversight. Right now I’m waiting for a Credit Union to open so I can get some small bills. Fun stuff!

Enjoying the conference, haven’t had a chance to watch very many of the presentations because the booth has been crazy busy. I have my food in the sample cooler for today, yesterday Holly and Steve forgot to bring any for them and Steve had to go get lunch. We went to Outback Steakhouse again last night, everyone got yummy meat and I just drank ? – Steve did a shot of melted butter, it was pretty funny.

The 100 days is still going fantastic. It’s been really interesting to talk to people about Keto Chow and how it’s nutritionally complete. Then I tell them it’s the only thing I’ve eaten for the last 2 months, gets about the reaction you would expect! Does give a lot of credibility to what I’m saying though.

We went to a party last night, I drank my Keto Chow on the way to the place. Made not eating the prime rib and keto pasta more bearable.

I woke up with a bit of a headache today. I think I had nearly a full small bottle of the Electrolyte Drops in a water bottle that I keep refilling. Final day of the conference!

The conference is DONE! We finished last night, packed up, came back to the rental house, washed some stuff while Steve was cooking the steaks we bought on Friday (I had Chocolate Toffee Keto Chow), and then we went to BED. My Oura ring says I slept for 8 hours and 42 minutes. That doesn’t even come close to making up for Saturday night but it’s a start =)

Today we’re driving back home to Salt Lake, I have my 3 meals of Keto Chow mixed up and ready in a cooler with some ice packs. I think the rest of the crew is also drinking Keto Chow for lunch. Anyhow, I’ll be back to high-production-value videos tomorrow =)

So I’m really quite glad that I am doing an all-liquid diet right now. I got a crown on one of my molars yesterday (failing filling FTW!) and haven’t needed to chew anything. This morning I grabbed some sugar-free gum and it’s still quite sore, not a problem at all! I believe I’m also coming down with a cold or something, probably picked it up last week in Denver. The interesting thing is that illness is very likely to massively change my blood test results so the blood test I did this morning before I came into work is likely to reflect the illness.

Today I have a bunch of stuff to finish up, I also picked up the ingredients to make Keto Chow Drop Biscuits for the biscuits and gravy I’m making for tomorrow’s Keto Meat-Up. I’m editing down an interiew we did with Megan Ramos about our electrolyte supplements, it’s really fantastic stuff. Finally, at Low Carb Denver we met a really nice lady from Australia that seemed to quite like Keto Chow. On the final day I made sure to let her know that we were going to need to either pour out the samples we had for people to drink or it would be wasted so she got quite a lot. Turns out she’s Jessica Turton, I’ve even listened to her on several podcasts and simply didn’t recognize who she was. I’m claiming the dental braces made her look really young so I have an excuse. She posted on her personal blog today and gave us a shout-out, which was very nice:

Between talks there was plenty of time to chat and network with the presenters, vendors and attendees. And if you are a lover of food samples (like me) then you would have been loving the vendors at this event. There is nothing better than a vendor that has almost an unlimited supply of food samples… Never trust anyone selling food that is stingy with their samples! I have to give a massive shout out to the team at Keto Chow for keeping me so damn satiated across the three days. These guys do keto meal replacement shakes that actually taste good! If you have had a consult with me you’ll know that I don’t like recommending protein shakes or meal replacement products, but since working long hours in clinical practice myself (and having braces…) I have come to realise the important role that high-quality meal replacement shakes can play in many of our busy lives. The team at Keto Chow continued to fill my little sample cup up with delicious flavours like choc mint, eggnog and pumpkin pie (oh my gosh yum!).

Looking at the scale I’m now down 37.1 lbs from when I started on January 2. More importantly, I also took off the buckle on my rachet belt and cut off 2 inches, then reattached the buckle. Turns out that many good quality belts can be trimmed this way.

We have our Utah Keto Meat-up today, I’m making Keto Chow biscuits and also making sausage and heavy cream gravy so everyone can have biscuits and gravy. Should be stellar. The meat-ups are always fun and we’ve had a steadily increasing number of people coming each time. Do yourself a favor and head over to meetup.com and see if there’s one in your local area, and if there isn’t: make one! That’s what I did about a year and a half ago.
