Day 1 of our carnivore diet

Hello all, my girlfriend and I have just begun the carnivore diet. We both need to lose some weight and feel better in general. I usually cycle keto every couple months, but decided to try this path instead and see what it’s like. We are trying to cut out everything except beef and fish. We have made an exception for coffee and tea for the time being, but we will cut back and eventually stop those altogether. However we cannot decide whether or not to remove salt/pepper from the diet. I use Himalayan salt when in keto to keep electrolytes in check, but many people have suggested that it is not need for carnivore. What is the argument behind not using salt/pepper, if there are any?Also, having gone through almost 5lbs of ground beef in a day and a half, does anyone have any decent recipes for this? I was thinking of adding bacon, but we’re iffy on adding pork to the diet. Neither one of us really like pork, but many websites say it’s a good addition to ground beef. Thoughts?Finally does anyone have any beginners tips that will make this journey a little less daunting?Thank you all for your help :)
