Making Room in My Life for Carnivore, Entry #3

It is still April 23rd 2025, and I'm still doing carnivore according to plan.

After getting off to a good start, at around mid-afternoon, my energy tanked. I think it's because I had packed meat for lunch that was too lean. I think I needed more fat. Because, when I got in this evening, I added a heaping teaspoon of bacon grease to my meal, plus I chose a fattier bit of ground beef, and my energy level very soon went back to normal. 

Something I did yesterday for the first time: I laid out in the sun. More specifically, I laid out in the sun naked. TMI alert: I plan on sunning my buns... and my junk. I treated myself as if I was a rotisserie chicken, and I turned over every 10 minutes, for a total time of 20 minutes. 

I also did another thing that I've never been all that serious about until now: grounding. I walked barefoot on the grass for 50 feet in each direction, for a 100-foot round trip. 

I plan on laying out in the sun, in the buff, on every day that it is sunny. And I plan on grounding every day, too. 

What's the importance of each one of these things? 

Well, the sun exposure has two benefits. One is vanity related, because I would like to be able to wear shorts without having incredibly white legs. The second part is health related. I want to increase vitamin D production in my body, and I think exposing my entire body to the sun is greatly beneficial in that regard. 

The grounding thing... It's all about discharging electrons into the earth to give one's body a more neutral charge. 

Both of these things have been shown to improve mental health, especially with regard to depression. 

That said, I'm already over my depression, thanks to methylene blue. It allowed me to kick my SSRI and reclaim my full range of emotions, which the citalopram had taken from me. It did this without allowing my morning terrors to come back, which is why I had been taking the citalopram.
