I can't find how to comment, so I will comment here 😊 I agree with Bobbi . You look great 😊 someone said you look younger, and yes you do. Been following your progress, and these last few months are really an attest to your great progress. You are an inspiration to me and others. I just love your honest approach that's why I follow you 😊
1. Set daily goals 2. More sardine challenges (increase omega-3s) 3. Increase protein intake 4. Lose self limiting beliefs (ie I can only lose 2 lbs/ month) 5. Increase activities of daily living/mobility/exercise 6. Follow individual plan/ activities- what works for you
Unfortunately, these days everyone is a critic even though their opinions haven’t been requested. Thank you for posting these useful comments. Looking forward to spending 2024 with you.
#5 is the best one of all! So tired of labels, the only label I follow is dr berry’s proper human diet label. We are all in this together, avoiding carbs, sugar and processed foods- why isn’t that enough.?
It’s not my job to police you or anyone else in this great way of eating. As individuals we need to find the way we can best use this WOE to optimize our health. I loved this video and will be sharing it with my friend who is starting carnivore on January 1! I consider you one of the best people in the carnivore community to advise and support our new carnivores and this video will give her a better understanding of our WOE. Happy New Year to you and God bless.
I will be rooting for your friend and also am doing a livestream 7pm Eastern Jan 7 that is geared to new people starting. Thank you for sharing with people you care about!
Anita, I ate keto, in various forms for 4 years, lost 80 lbs and felt great, had some hard personal things with family this past year and started eating for comfort and gained. I’ve had to go through some realizations and came back to keto. I got very discouraged and down. I’m feeling better now, got back to eating keto and more carnivore and somehow found you. You are very encouraging and I can relate with your story. We are the same age. I’m in the middle of the US, we’re having a blizzard and I’m spending a cozy day watching you. Take care and looking forward to hearing more from you.
I can relate. Lost weight on Keto/Carnivore. Then a stressful event made me reach for my comfort carbs, and all the weight came back on. Starting again now, with a whole set of experiences, and hopefully some more wisdom.
Love that you’re planning to plant raspberries! Also, harvesting and caring for the plants is a good way to get sunshine and ground yourself! Best fruit fresh, as well!!
Great video. Great goals. Reminds me of my nursing days when we would make goals for our patients then make a plan how to help them achieve them. My goals are similar. I have raspberry and blueberry plants. When they produce i will have some. Have a blessed 2024!!
Girl, you are so clean with your recipes and changes the last few years. Omg I’ve learned so much from you. The keto junk foods are rough for me this week. I’m going to do bbbe Jan with carnivore quest. You rock. I’m excited with the list I just made from this video. 2024. The yr for Me and my health. Thanks for all you do.
❤ such great perspective! We are so thankful for you and all the strength and wisdom that you bring to our community! Wishing you a wonderful new year!
Wow! Thank you for sharing this today! I appreciate your encouragement and your perspective on this topic. One of the things I learned early on from Kelly Hogan was the importance of being around like-minded people. That’s one of the things I love about you- your approach to getting, thinking and being healthy are things I can easily relate to. Wishing you a blessed, healthy and Happy New Year!🎉🥩🥓🎉
Thank you, these suggestions are very helpful. I live with my daughter's family. They don't eat keto, but she tries to help by having a vegetable I can eat. She doesn't think carnivore is healthy,so I don't try to convince her that it is.
All you can do is set the example, my family doesn't think it's healthy either yet they are at a loss as to why I am the healthiest I have ever been. Maybe one day it will click!
Wonderful and thoughtful year end wrap-up, Anita. Not fitting into everyone else’s mold is your superpower! Keep it up and thanks for sharing. Also, I love my raspberry patch too!
Thank you, again, Anita! A couple of these items did strike a cord with me!! But the best one is having the goal of "I'll loose 10 pounds a month" truly doesn't work!! I never gave that a thought but it is so true! This one was particularly moving for me. Thank you, again, and happy New Year!!
It doesn’t bother me at all not to be pure! I was vegan most my life and why would I want to be dogmatic again? That ruined my health. Better to think about what’s best for me and my health. Never too late to turn towards oneself and be true!
Thank you so much for your honesty and sincere help to others. I watch you all the time. I’m 67 and have lost 24 lbs on fasting and cutting out carbs. I was turning into a diabetic ( like my Dad) I think you’re such a great role model. God bless you, and I’ll keep seeing you here ❤❤❤❤❤
Great talk! It's so important to not force an all 9r nothing mindset. I've been working on breaking free of it and find my own sweet spot. It's working 🙂. Happy New Year!
I like your list a lot. They all resonated with me. I especially liked your #5 - especially for you. By having this channel you have opened yourself up to everyones opinions. We all need to do what is right for us, but I think it is even more important for you because you absolutely will hear from a lot of detractors and critics. Don't let them get to you. You have many more fans than you have detractors. For me, I am considering myself "ketovore" because it is a wishy washy label. I know I can eat many vegetables and seasonings etc. without noticable negative reactions. I feel better eating mostly meat and meat products. So I eat closer to carnivore, but I want to reserve the right to go wild and have an avocado sometimes.
Agreed...do what is best for you. To me it's important to be following a sustainable way of life and eating that promotes health and wellness. And just a thought...."perfection" might be conducive to an eating disorder. IMHO Thank you Anita!!
Kudos to you! This is what life is all about....figure out what works for you....and do it....and enjoy it! There is no "one-size-fits-all!" Keep up the great work!
I recently started following you and am furiously watching all your videos. I love your quietly encouraging way. I decided to comment today to let you know you look so great in earth tones, and that sweater is great on you. And being a rule breaker is a representation of strength and self-assurance. Never apologize.
Anita, you are a true voice of reason in the health discussion space. I SO appreciate you!! Watching your channel is like chatting with a friend around the kitchen table. You are full of sensible advice and tasty recipes. I send you much love and success for 2024 xx
1) Good one: "Focusing on just weight is like focusing on the color of your car when the engine is broken" -I think I got that right? 2) some seafood everday - like sardines .... 3) more protein - yes! Especially fatty meat 4) ADL activities of daily living - strength - doing squats, balance, ...7 essential movements 5) no need for labels or following another persons plan, do what works to keep us healthy :) Yum, raspberries in season - In season is what our ancestors did !
Hi Anita. Your post today really resonated with me. Hearing you tell us the problems you were experiencing or changes in your self limiting beliefs is honest and real. Many of us do this and perhaps don't realize the limits we place on our abilities to achieve more and exceed our goals. ADL are taken for granted (definitely by me) need to be protected and prioritized in our lives. Thanks for sharing.
I grow q few tomato plants each year because it reminds me of my dad and mother. Nightshades are not the best for me, but, like you, this feeds my soul. Your teaching has helped me a great deal this year; thank you.
What ever feels right for you is right for you - no matter what someone else is saying. It is the only way we should live. Everything else is "living under control" and who would want to do that. I never understood why someone would feel the necessity to tell others what they should or should not do. You are a lovely woman and I like to listen to what you have got to say. Thank you.
This video especially resonated with me, Anita. I feel like I try many things I hear from different folks in the carnivore space. Some work well and I try to incorporate them when I can. Some I discard and get back to basics. My "basics" have evolved over the years though and maybe that's the secret...finding what fits us best. I appreciate your attitude going into 2024. I'm not really a "resolutions" kind of person, but I'm going to take a little bit of your attitude about what is important, helpful and relevant to YOU and work towards that. Perfection (if we can ever get to that) is exhausting. ☺️
For as long as I can remember, my fingernails have been very thin and broke/peeled constantly. Since I've amped up my protein, my fingernails have become thicker and stronger. Amazing!
Thank you Anita, very thaughtful lesson. I will bring some of them with me into 2024. Happy new year, and looking forward to see what you will be up to in 2024. LOVE
Thank you Anita for your insight. I appreciate you and I too do those things which I am ok with and let the other stuff alone. My journey is my journey and your journey is your journey. Let’s all just be happy. Bless you and have a great 2024.
Thank you for this vid! I love it all and especially the part where you tell us that you do you without regard to what “they” say you should, instead you listen to your body!
Your personal carnivore journey is your own and those ungrateful humans who cast stones your way need nit bother to watch. I APPRECIATE you so much BECAUSE you are honest, and flawed like good people are. I was so incredibly proud of my entire daily when we spent Christmas weekend and day and they made sure when we went out to eat they gladly and unapologetically chose restaurants that I could get my carnivore food to enjoy. Nobody questioned it or even thought I was dictating where we went. I don't want to be perfect, I want to be the healthiest me I can be. Happy New Year Anita and thank you for this video. For those few of you who criticize, look in the mirror and take stock in why you have to be hurtful to others. Love to all, even you who are mean. ❤
Thank you for sharing this! It really helped me. My youngest sister came down with cancer in 2021 and just passed away 12/22 23. I haven’t handled it so well. I need to reflect on the impact that had on me and my family and move forward. Your very wise reflections on what you learned in 2023 and will move forward incorporating them into this year really hit home with me. Really good food for thought. Thanks again! ❤
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my own younger sister in Oct 2022 so I do know what is like. We can only move forward and hold the memories in our hearts.
I have bone on bone on both knees. I got one knee done last July. It went so well and didn't really limit too much. Also felt great. Now in March I will have the other knee done. January I want to start my ketogenic diet.
❤I pray you have a blessed new year Anita. Your next year content is something I'm looking forward to. And the guest's you will interview. I hope you have Martha back on.
I love your five take aways from 2023. I especially love your sweet commentary on those who may judge you for not being a "purest" about Carnivore and Keto. My chiropractor gave me the best way to view what others may call "transgressions". He said that he doesn't make a big deal about eating a certain way when he goes out with friends or with family. He eats, for the most part, what the others are having, knowing that that is not his lifestyle. Your choices are based on what's best for YOU! That's so great.
I praying for all the people that feel others needs to be accountable to them for their food choices. Each journey is very specific to each person. I am not perfect with my selections someday. Other days I do great. I’m also an adult that understands my choices are mine and I have to be responsible for the results. It’s called accountability! We all have it. No need for anyone to believe they can make others accountable to them. Love this video Anita. Definitely brought out some great points I haven’t thought of. Happy New Year! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🕊️
Happy New Year, Anita, Blessings galore in 2024. You look fabulous . The 5 lessons learned came at the right time (God is so good) because I realize I need to up my protein intake. My hair was falling out and I didn’t realize upping protein could hold the answer. I had all the tests done, thyroid etc and no issues there. Thank you for all you do and may this be a year of increase in your life. Increase in your health, your peace, your joy and may all your plans succeed. 💐💕💐
