Carnivore Chronicles: A Week of Meat Madness
Carnivore Chronicles: A Week of Meat Madness

So, there I was, staring down the barrel (or should I say, the steak) of a week-long meat mission. Friends and family thought I’d lost my marbles, and maybe I had. But curiosity got the best of me, and I figured, what’s the worst that could happen? A less-than-happy digestive tract? Perhaps. Day 1: I kicked off my meat-only voyage with gusto. Bacon for breakfast, steak for lunch, and a grand finale of roast chicken for dinner. I felt like a carnivorous superhero—which, come to think of it, sounds appropriately alarming. With some serious protein power surging through my veins, I felt unstoppable. I was ready to lift cars or at least the remote control off the couch. Little did I know, my enthusiasm would soon be put to the test. Day 2: Reality hit hard. Turns out, there’s only so much sizzle you can handle before your taste buds start sending out distress signals. I found myself eyeing a lone broccoli in the fridge like a long-lost friend. No, I had to stay strong! It's meat or nothing! By mid-afternoon, my enthusiasm dipped faster than a cheap grill in a rainstorm. Who knew that steak-flavored everything would become my only conversation starter? Day 3: The meat parade continued, but the novelty was wearing thin. My Twitter feed was filled with veggie recipes, and my friends started sending me texts asking why I wasn’t posting photos of rainbow bowls anymore. I snapped back with a rib-eye steak pic. Take that, kale enthusiasts! Just then, my stomach started growling louder than the 'call of the wild.' Did protein overload mean I’d have to resort to raw meat for that authentic cave-dweller experience? Day 4: I hit the mid-week wall, and let’s just say the whole meat endeavor was starting to feel like a punishment invented by lobster-loving culinary professors. Cue the meat sweats. I began to understand why our ancestors were always hunting—the struggle was real! I almost tweeted a desperate plea for a salad, but my meat-laden conscience wouldn’t allow it. Somehow, I soldiered on, determined to see this carnivore challenge through to the end. Day 5: A call for reinforcements! I reached out to my fellow meat-heads online, seeking solace in the camaraderie of brontosaurus-sized portions. The lovely folks of #MeatFeast rallied around me with the fervor of steak-loving cheerleaders. They urged me to stick to the plan, reminding me of all the ‘scientific’ benefits of going full carnivore. Little did they know, the only benefit I was truly seeing was the ability to burp the entire alphabet after a juicy burger. Day 6: The crucible of meat was taking a toll, and I desperately longed for something green—anything green! Cue veggie envy! My body was craving just about any nutrient that didn’t start with a capital ‘M’ and end with ‘eat.’ Let me tell you, even a sprinkle of parsley was starting to seem gourmet. I dreamt of a cheese platter with strawberries, giggled at the thought of avocado toast, and almost shed a tear for roasted vegetables. Day 7: At last, we’d reached the final frontier… the last supper, the ultimate meat feast! I went all out: brisket, sausage, and some sort of mystery meat that might be a hot dog but could also be the neighbor’s pet. I felt a mix of triumph and relief, akin to being the last one standing in a game of chicken (literally). I celebrated with a meaty heart, but vowed to never, ever underestimate the power of greens again. Conclusion: So would I recommend a week of only eating meat? Absolutely and unequivocally... for a laugh. Am I ready to sign up for ‘Keto Plus Extreme’? Not a chance! My body is now happily back on a balanced diet, and oh, how I have missed those crunchy greens. Remember folks, meat may be mighty, but variety is the spice of life—less you want to become a walking steakhouse. Stay hungry for novelty, and never let anyone hold you back from a wild culinary adventure!
