I have an issue im trying to figure out how to fix. I have a problem eating fat. I become severely inflammed all over if I eat to much so I stay within 50-70g a day. Many of the symptoms are severe head pressure, nasal congestion, severe asthma, joint paint, overall body weakness, muscle loss, weak teeth and nails, cavities. The person i was working with believes i have CIRS from mold. She had me doing lipid replacement but I cant tolerate more fat than I mentioned above. Not sure if your program is something that can help.
Hi so sorry I need some help I was checking your page and how to sign up for 90 day fat loss program but I found august challenge please could you let me know how to sigh up I’m to confused (carb brain for sure) . Best wishes
@Godsdaughter414 I got it on my chest only but didn't get it while on my keto diet but after I had graduated to a carnivore diet. Just found out what it is by your question. Was wondering if it was caused by a virus or my diet..
I am 74 years old as of February 2024. Started the Keto lifestyle this past February 9, 2023. Inflammation, insulin resistance and heart surgery dictated my change to carnivore July 14 2023. Started to feel GREAT this past December 2023, better than I have felt in my entire life. Still researching and tweaking my carnivore lifestyle. As of today I have gotten rid of 74 pounds. 44 of those pounds came from Keto but Keto didn't address my inflammation fast enough. However my pre diabetes has corrected. My cardiologist congratulated me on my weight loss and reduced A1C but commanded that I abandon that Keto and pick up some Repatha from the drugstore that he was ordering and give myself inoculations in my stomach to address my high LDL. I quit him instead.
Good for you! I'm so happy about your results! Because of the prescription pushing doctors,I'm at the point where I only want to see a doctor for labs only!
Good call. Bizarre how we have modern "leaching" doctors, and doctors who actually know the issues with old cholesterol 'research' and that new research debunks the old grain-industry and pharma propaganda.
I'm literally crying as I watch this. Carnivore woman for 2 months. Only one doing this in my family. I suffer from chronic pain so that's what I want to heal. I am making progress. Just feel alone and unsure what to do. Maybe I need to join your group. ❤
@@jasminflower3814 I did it solid for 3 months or more. I couldn't get past the Diarrhea and still had issues although I did lose weight. I have since gone Hypercarnivore which means I have added back in some carbs. When I do this, I feel much better. I am under 10% on average per day of carbs, sometimes 5%. Usually from potato. But when I stick to this, I see better results. This is just my personal results. Everyone is different and has to find what works for them.
you'll get used to crying listening to the girls tell us "the way". I am 76 yo male and feel I have been reborn after only being on a semi carnivore diet as I can afford for a month or so. I just started taking photos so that will be interesting (to me) lol. I hope you are inspired by this video. I sure am.
@@dimpsthealien333Did you have oxalate dumping or was the diarrhea just due to the added fat and protein? I was on the diet for 4 days and got terrible nausea. The next day, I was not only nauseous, had painful cramping and loose stools. It was like my bowels were purging everything in them. I don’t want to do this again.
I’m 62 and have followed a plant based diet for the last 6 years since a second diagnosis of breast cancer, which resulted in a mastectomy. This threw me into the menopause and since I’ve been at war with my hormones. I was feeling like I was drying out from the inside and intuitively felt I needed greasing. I was starting to wake up with small injuries, skeletal and muscular. My 34 year old son, who has been carnivore for 6 months was concerned about me and begged me to try carnivore for just 3 months. I’m in my 2nd month and I’ve never felt so well, fat has become muscle and I feel so much stronger. I’m shocked at how good my skin is and how fast it changed. I’m filling out but not getting bigger. I didn’t need to lose weight, I needed muscle mass. I have more energy and sleep more deeply and longer. I don’t wake up as often to go to the toilet. I was concerned it would lower my vibration but I bless my meat and give thanks to the animals. The opposite has happened, my psychic abilities have enhanced. My dreams are more positive and now in colour! I love following this channel, thank you ladies and especially SBGal 🥰🇬🇧🙏
Karen thank you dos sharing. I can identify with you I am 59 and I have had some medical issues especially after I lost my husband with a massive heart attack. I would like to start carnivore but I have my reservations. Can you tell me what is your diet like, is it affordable. I also have some reservation about eating meat as a moral thing. I am glad that you are so thankful and grateful for the benefits. Thank you for your time and I am happy for your progress.
Thank you so much for this comment! I was having a hard time mentally and spiritually about the carnivore diet. I have chronic illness and have tried everything including being keto since April 2021. But I'm still sick. I think I need to give Carnivore my all and bless and give thanks to the animal that is nourishing and healing my body. I didn't want it to hinder me in other ways that you mentioned. Your success story is very encouraging!
@@ThisIsNotMyHome Native Americans and other tribes are very spiritual and eat meat. I always make sure it’s organic/ grass fed. I still feel much better.
My husband is 80 yrs old and I am 77, I am still recuperating from a fall which broke my right femur, I have osteoporosis. I was listening to a few of your videos and decided to go for it. We started 4 days ago, we are still learning and adapting, I already feel that my clothes are less tight ❤️ thank for your guidance and tips
This comment will probably die but I just wanted to say that this video has inspired me to do carnivore for at least a year and I wanted to come back to it with an update. I've been off and on carnivore for the last year and I was also pregnant and currently nursing but never stuck with it more than 3 months after getting my short term results. I've been looking at a lot of before and after pictures of female carnivores and notice their boobies do look a little more lifted, even if they wasn't the goal I never knew it was possible. I'm 32 years old and have 2 children, the first I nursed for 2 years and the other one is 1 year also being nursed and my boobs are just sad. I just finished week 1 of priming, feel great. I feel like nothing can stop me this time around. I've already been able to make it through 2 social settings without any temptation. I try not to weigh myself but I did and I am gaining weight but oh well because I am hitting the weights pretty hard and I can tell fat in other areas are disappearing, so I must be doing something right. What I'm hoping for in a year: Hypertrophy muscles Lifted boobs Sculpted legs Abs I've never had "abs" as a goal even when I served 5 years in the Marines, I was really strong. I never dreamed of having abs and sculpted legs but this video really inspired me to be consistent. My legs, calves specifically have always been huge, extra fat on there. Even if the rest of me is fit, my calves just stay big and fat. 1 year from Aug 22 I will be posting and update. Thank you ladies so much for sharing your stories and making this video.
You go!! How exciting 😀 I'm looking forward to an update. I'm also noticing as I eat more meat based my boobies are filling up after nursing 4 babies for 2 yrs each!
Please do a video on children. I drive a bus with 13 autistic children and all of them live on diets of coco pops, pizza and pasta. Every day, with squash drinks to wash it down and sugar treats as rewards for good behaviour. I believe that none of them will have productive lives. They are all undernourished so often off sick with viral diseases and their futures look grim if they continue this way. But i’m not a doctor or a teacher i’m not even a mother but I can see the effects of what their diets are doing to them. And it’s heart breaking. 💔
I've been watching several channels different coaches fir guidance on carnivore. BELLA is most gracious and professional. She allows guests to speak by listening then asks questions us listeners would.
This chat was epic! Thank you Bella! It is so awesome to hear the perspective of carnivore females! To add to the mommy stories, my 14 year old daughter gets compliments all the time on her skin. She always reply’s “I eat a lot of meat” 😂 Hopefully she can positively influence her peers!
At age 14 was when my horrible acne started and I didn't get a handle on it until age 28. 14 years of my life I suffered from acne and other hormonal issues. I wish my mother had known meat was the answer. My mom to this day is still plant based and at age 62 still gets deep cystic acne even though she's done with menopause. She's also been obese for around a decade now. I have been meat based for the last 4 years and never felt/looked better. I keep trying to get my mom to eat red meat but she won't listen
Excellent Round Table. Please interview women in their 60,70,80’s soon. Women that are Post Menopause and Post Hysterectomy. It’s important to know how Carni helps our Seniors because so many that age develop Cancer & other illnesses from eating the SAD for most of their lives. Before/After photos too. Thanks so much!
Sandy I’m 77 years old went on keto /. Carnivore for 15 months have just found the butter and meat . I’m really liking the difference in the way I feel. I’m looking forward to the weight loss as my body heals more. I’m post hysterectomy and feel great. I’m adjusting still to sleep disorder but I feel it will improve soon with the addition of more butter at bedtime. Headaches gone.
Sunburn….. as in lack of. I am in Southern California, I am an Arborist and work outside in the heat all day. Since starting Carnivore I have had zero sunburn… and that’s with zero sunscreen and an ever growing bald spot!! 😂👍💯
I'm 45, I've lost 150 pounds on carnivore, have a lot of loose skin. I usually am 2mad one day a week omad, so I intermittent fast, now, but I have 50 more pounds I want to lose. I may have to try the next challenge. My weight loss has slowed waayy down. I expected that but if I can do something to boost my fat loss, I'll try it. At 5'1" I was 325 pounds at my heaviest. Down to 165 pounds. STILL considered obese.
We would be more than happy to welcome you in the SBGANG! Coach Emily has lost 150 pounds herself with no draping skin. She teaches the program with Coach Raymond too.
go back to carbs (100 g per day maybe) for a week or two then start over, maybe that will kick start more weight loss. Of course, if you're a carb addict it can be risky.
I started carnivore a month ago and have experienced great progress so far. My wife, who is in great shape already but has specific things she wants to improve, has started moving from her calorie restricted diet to carnivore. I make bacon and eggs for lunch and constantly encourage her to eat eat eat and not worry about calories, which to me, as a chemical engineer... are pointless. I have noticed that there is so much pre-conditioning regarding food. Women are 'supposed' to eat like birds and to me thats complete bullshit. Slowly, by leading and not forcing, I see that she is becoming deconditioned - and she is seeing the results. Thanks for producing this all women discussion, I am sending this to her right away.
I keep telling people that we're not math problems (like calorie counting implies), we're chemistry problems. Most of them look at me like I'm insane even when I give the thought experiment example of how, if they need to put salt water in something and all they have is elemental sodium, chlorine, hydrogen, and oxygen, they can't just put in the correct proportions of each of those raw materials, they'd have to react them first to make H2O and NaCl and *then* combine those. Every now and again I get someone who didn't sleep through chemistry in school who has the light switch flip from that example, but it's pretty crazy how deeply entrenched the mathematical view of calories is.
Just want to say I started carnivore a month after having my twin boys( May 2022) . I am breastfeeding my twins full time, recovery time has been cut in half( incomparision to having my daughter 3 years ago), I have amazing energy to take care of my babies. So thankful I have come across your content Bella!!
That’s inspiring. Currently 31 weeks pregnant and want to try carnivore diet after delivery but have been advised against it due to ketosis and it’s possible effect on baby. How long did you wait after delivery to start your journey? Did it affect your milk supply or your babies? Genuinely curious and would love to hear your feedback.
I'm 65, started 2 weeks ago, 5 days carnivore, 1 day water fasting, 1day OMAD eating whatever I want without overdoing it. I walk at list 5 times a week for 30-40 min. Feeling great, energetic, no prescription meds. This works best for me, its not boring and the weight is coming off up to 4 pounds a week.
I wish we wouldn’t Pooh-Pooh the loss of water weight. That is the first sign of a cessation of inflammation! It is such wonderful guidance and body communication. Excellent video. Congrats, ladies!!
I came to carnivore somewhat backwards. I've been keto and pretty happy for the past 3 years, but my cholesterol has been up. 280. I'm off of all my other meds and I've changed docs twice to find someone who would support me. NO luck. I decided to do the Feldman protocol to get my doctor off of my back. I'm fat adapted, and had done intermittent fasting before--longest 7 days and generally lost 7 pounds and then put 5 of them back on. I had water fasted for 7 days but added in bone broth on the last 2 days. (lost 5 pounds) Ate keto for the next 2 days and gained a pound. Then I started the Feldman protocol which of course means eating 3X the calories--which was practically impossible. I thought, the only way I could get to 3500 calories per day and not have to do crazy tracking was to eat carnivore. 2 ribeyes and 4 eggs in 2 meals per day, fried in butter or bacon grease. I expected to gain weight. I did this for 3 days and really tried to hit 3500 calories which was almost impossible. I was stuffed. I assumed I would gain weight, but unlike in the past, I kept off the weight I lost during the fasting and more, net LOSS at the end of 12 days was 8 pounds...I lost 3 more pounds eating massive amounts of food. I actually made my doctor weigh me because I questioned my scale. My cholesterol did drop some, 201-- not as much as I would have expected. Nonetheless, my doctor was proud of me. She said, "You aren't on keto anymore, right?" "Well...." I told her I was doing sort of a modified keto. She said, "See, less red meat and more salmon and olive oil and your cholesterol is down. Keep up the good work." I did not tell her I ate 6 steaks in 3 days, fried in bacon grease. I'm pretty sure she would have had a heart attack.
Please, tell your doctor. They need to start opening their eyes and especially their minds. Millions of sick people are treated wrongly, the prescribed foods and meds from doctors make people more sick. They need to see more cases of people who do it differently and are getting better and maybe at least a handful of them will see through the pharma and food industry lies…
My mom was a lactation consultant and mother baby nurse, so I just wanted to add that breastfeeding does NOT give you saggy boobs. It actually happens because of pregnancy itself and you can get them whether you nurse or not. So don't be afraid of nursing giving you saggy boobs, moms.
I think there might be other contributing factors to saggy boobs. Maybe smaller bust women have less, I don’t know. But I breastfed three babies, each for over a year. And I really don’t have very saggy boobs , even at 62.
Two months, first on very low carb, then carnivore: 16 pounds lost in postmenopause. I am very near to my ideal weight, body and mental stability. No hair loss, my face skin improved. I’ll never go back to my former eating style. Even the lust for alcohol is getting lesser and lesser 💪 very very great chat, ladies 🌹
I LOVE the convo about your kids and being carnivore mom's!! This would be a MUCH appreciated topic if you could do an entire video on how to help transition our kids, what is good to feed kids of certain ages, how to help them deal with it socially, etc. Love you beautiful, strong women 🙏🥰🥩
Hello! You're doing a good work.. Thank you so much! Well, you wanted to know about us.... I'm an 80 year old woman who has done the SAD diet For that whole time. i've done many other diets and lost but gained it back plus much more. I've been on carnivor for about a month and close to a week... And have lost seventeen pounds❤ I love your videos. I love butter. I love Rib eye steak's! Thank you so much for your channel. Now I have hope of dying slim! LOL! God bless you for what you do.
Jessica made me cry, it really made me realize how much I've abused myself trying to attain a body that was totally unrealistic especially without the health factor. My gut and hormones are wrecked by years of starvation, raw vegan, juice fasts, etc. Finally shed and got a bit better with keto but then digestive stuff messed up again because of erythritol and almond flour and veg fiber. I'm really looking forward to just feeling good finally but gaining weight still scares me. I feel like I struggled so much to lose it!
I'm right there with you. I eat a salad now and my gut gets bloated. Super bloated. I always have an extended pregnancy pouch but I'm not even pregnant. I did keto, stopped because my hair was falling out. Went back to carbs now my hips are full of inflammation. I can't win, hate it.
@@divinelotus19 have you tried carnivore with butter and iodine? The iodine might help with the hair loss. I know exactly what you mean about the bloating I get so bloated that I can't breathe when I eat any vegetables. I've done every test and they don't know what to tell me. I just put my hands up and said well I guess it's carnivore for good. I'm ok with it.
when Jessica said "retraining" I realized it really is a recalibration. The whole metabolic shift, hormone and system transformation is really what is needed. I cannot believe how lovely everyones skin is! the skin is an often neglected organ and immune system of our body. Thank you all for sharing your unique journey. I pray I may have such a beautiful result.
Everyone is different… I can literally be very strict carnivore and then eat anything off plan and it never makes me crave more …. I’m right back on plan and I don’t feel like crap at all . That’s freedom
I love how all your heads nod at the same time when one of you ladies says something that resonates with us all. It so relieving to hear you all talk about the problems and fears so many of us face.
Really loving these round table discussions. I’ve been in your group challenges since October and carnivore since May 2021. I have about 20 lbs more I’d like to lose and I think finally the rolling 48’s are starting to pay off. Haven’t weighed myself but think some recomp is starting. I’m 70 years old and have lost over 110 lbs over the past 4 years. Also have had both hips and both knees replaced due to severe osteo arthritis. Thanks so much Bella for your support and constant encouragement.
Yes, I love these as well, it's especially powerful to hear from these women first hand as I know for a fact it can be much much more difficult for women to lose it.
I am so glad to hear about the insomnia. Whenever I did 36 or 48 hr fast, I could not sleep. I started having many sleep issues. I now have upped my fat with protein only. I am finally sleeping.
Sleep issues run in my family...everything from insomnia to narcolepsy. I'm an insomniac and have heard many talk about how their own insomnia went away. I hope it doesn't make mine worse 😬
I'm not just pro women or pro girls... I have 5 boys. I'll listen to anyone. But it was REALLY nice hearing a group of women talk! I did really hear it well as they talked about some of my own concerns. So encouraging! •130 lbs to lose •7 children •Worried about loose skin as well as other things talked about! It was nice to be able to relate. 💙
Haha you gals just kept on trying for that boy… good on you all - lord knows you must be troopers to deal with that amount of crazy ! Dad of two girls.
I’m 34yrs old and been sick all my life. I honestly wondered if it was my whole life, when you said about your baby not growing hair: my hair as a baby (nonexistent), but when it came in it was blonde (white platinum blonde), but it didn’t grow until I was a toddler and even then, it only grew from the base of my head up; I only just had a full head of hair by age 5 and school. -this interview has confirmed some things and solidified what I need to do, to finally heal, be healthy and actually be able to live life! -carnivore for life!!!
What an inspiring and professional job you did interviewing all these amazing women, Bella! I am 67, lost about 30 lbs on Keto since May of 2021…as well as ALL my arthritis pain! My weight loss has slowed to maintenance within about a 3-4 lb range. I’d still like to lose my “jiggly” belly, but my arms, legs and face are thin, so I’m afraid they will become too thin. Hoping carnivore (day two now) will help. I’m so grateful for the guidance and support on your channel! 🥰
Would like to hear from age group 60’s No more hormones to deal with We don’t bounce back as fast as someone who is in 30-40 age group Would love to hear more on this!
Lost weight in my cheeks & now the skin is sagging down each side of my mouth creating almost overnight wrinkles. People said I still looked young ( I’m almost 70). We’ll I sure don’t now.
Started carnivore to, hopefully, get off adderal, Wellbutrin and 3 asthma and allergy medications. I’m not overweight but I could use some skin tightening at 53. If all I get is to be 100% mentally well and clear, I will have hit the jackpot. Thanks for the motivation ❤️
My second day on carnivore high fat life style 😊 I had a great sleep last night and no hot flashes which I was shocked because I just started 😂. I’m excited to continue this journey.
I am so thankful to have found and seen this video! I am beginning carnivore in a week and am SO excited to get started! I am absolutely convinced this is THE way to get healthy! I am 64, 5’2”, 300, physically challenged with leg trauma (wreck), type 2 diabetic, eczema, extreme leg/ankle swelling, arthritis, A-fib, digestive issues, chronic pain, sleep apnea, extreme lethargy, no foot pads, and finally one wound from a wreck 5 years ago that STILL hasn’t healed. I have to wait till my next payday to begin or I would be doing it right now. We shall see!!!
Great info! I've been on the carnivore diet since April..My arthritis and psorisis is GONE, I lost 16 lbs abd dropped 3 sizes! More amazing- the brown spots on my hands and face are disappearing!
Only lost 16 pounds and that equaled 3 dress sizes? That’s amazing because when I’ve lost weight in the past, I needed to lose about 20 lbs to go down one size!
I’m 30 days carnivore today. Mostly beef & butter, with cream in my decaf daily, cheese 2-4 times a week, just started eating/using my own beef tallow & loving it. My weight went up about 4 lbs in the first couple weeks, but in the 4th week my body composition started changing. I’m down to my start weight now but have less fat. My love handles are nearly gone & my tummy is starting to go. I was already low carb for 3 or 4 months when I started. I lost more weight on low carb but I already prefer carnivore because of the changes in my body composition! I was only going to do 7 days of carnivore, but my digestion was noticeably better after just 7 days so I decided I wanted to go 14 days. Then I wanted 21. Now at 30 days today I am in no rush to change. I haven’t committed to a new #, but I already prepped my food for a beach date tmrw & noticed it’s all carnivore 👍 oh I also have had seafood a couple times a week. Either salmon, sardines, shrimp or oysters.
Would like to see and hear for those women that are obese ( 100 + pounds ) also maybe some that are over 65.. They have a journey that will help many..
Today is my fourth day carnivore, I was almost carnivor before. I have CFS and Hashimoto's and I already feel great. I was flirting with carnivor and you convinced me, thank you.
Enjoyed hearing from women about their experiences, would like to hear from older post menopause. I am going to be 65 this year and lost quite a bit of weight last year on keto. Not sure what I did, very happy about the weight loss but I lost muscle, fat in my face causing drooping especially on one side and experiencing extreme fatigue! I started carnivore but can't seem to go beyond 30 days. Not sure where to go from here but really hate the extreme fatigue... I really really want to build more muscle and tighten up skin.
I make "butter bites" with my breakfast every day.. I have photos but don't see where I can share them! Pork rinds fried in pork fat, and only salt added. I spread butter thick on them - it's like toast with my eggs and bacon!
I'm going to sign up for the 90 day challenge beginning with August ❤️ I've tried being carnivore and I believe the group support is totally necessary! Thanks so much ladies for this amazing discussion!
@@donnapruiett6541 thank you for your reply I thought I can sign up every moths for each challenge, sorry I hope I’m not confusing you aswell, I did it few times keto and carnivore but I didn’t stick to it so I’m sure I need some support . Best wishes and good luck dear x
Thanks for this conversation. As a 39 year old mom of 6 and having lost over 140# my hope is to get rid of this flap of skin in the lower abdomen. This gives me hope 👏🏾☺️
How has it gone? I'm going to say at 56 with a 100 lb weight loss, I paid ten thousand dollars to have the flap cut off. Best decision ever. I look better than in high school and still have 20 pounds to lose. My flap would never have gone away on its own ever no matter what.
@@jeng5757This is what I’m afraid of I need to lose a lot of weight and my skin is already so stretched out😞 I doubt I could afford $10K for a tummy tuck.
I’m 67. Have been carnivore (but I still drink coffee with cream several times a day) for 2.6 years. I have no cravings and love this way of eating. It’s absolutely worth sticking to. I do intend to cut out coffee - just haven’t felt ready to do so - yet.
Day3 on carnivore and i can say im thriving. Woke up this morning feeling energetic, my feet don't hurt and im not grumpy and hey im not bloated. Im happy i found your chanel, great helpful tips. Have been binge watching yr videos since yesterday
Such a great group! Love listening to all this wonderful input from these ladies and their transparency. Started carnivore in February lost 25 lbs and I fell off in late June/ July but getting back into it again. I love how the way I feel, look and overall the healing from the inside and out! Excited to get back on it!
LOVED the interview. Unfortunately I am unemployed therefore cannot afford the challenge although I would LOVE to take my carnivore to the next level. However these free interviews do help a lot to stay motivated. I am watching this as I am eating some butter 🧈 hehe. Binge watching Bella while eating buttaaa. Cheers
I am not carnivore but I am getting closer. I had a double mastectomy in early May. There were many complications and a long stint in the hospital. The best thing about being in the hospital (besides not dying) was my inability to eat “keto” snacks. That alone made a huge change in my former hunger. I was eating super low carb in the hospital and continued at home. No more snacks. No more fake breads. I am forcing myself to eat meat first then veg. I hope to drop veg soon.
So stoked.. started the Carnivore Diet 2 days ago and I am doing the 1 stick of butter per day with it.. so far so good.. never thought I could just eat butter on it's own without being disgusted that I was sitting there eating slices of butter..lol
You ate a stick of butter from day one? I ate extra butter, only about a table spoon and I had painful cramping and loose stools🤷🏻♀️ Do you eat salted or unsalted butter? I didn’t like the salted, tasted too salty. How are you doing now? Still eating butter?
@@suew4609 Hi..I used to use unsalted in my daily life even before the diet because I would make quiche now and then and I like the unsalted so I continued using it.. I am now 13 months in and down 105 pounds and I have cut back on my butter consumption by buying beef fat trimmings from the butcher.. I bought 25 pounds worth because there was a minimum order and I broke it down into smaller parcels and froze it.. When I was using butter I would have it with my meal mostly..steak and butter.. I would have a piece of steak and a slice of cold butter.. the 100-125 grams was over the day.. I did it for most of the year and then went to beef fat as it was a lot cheaper and it's delicious done in chunks in the airfryer as a side to my meat.. I can now buy cheaper cuts of meat that are not that fatty and still get my fatty meat.. if that makes sense.. It's well worth doing this diet.. I will never eat any other way..
One week into 100% carnivore, with lots of fat. I am losing weight so fast! 3 kilo’s lost already. Feeling amazing. Love my ribeyes. Apart from losing 10 kilo’s I hope I can finally say goodbye to my eczema and lots of histamine reactions. In one of your other vids you mentioned raw beef liver would speed up the healing. So I bought a pound of grassfed raw beef liver. To be able to get it in, I froze it a bit, toen cut it into tiny pieces and froze it completely. This works! I can take out a bunch of pieces and just get them down with a glass of water. Works perfectly. Your Information is so helpful Bella, thank you.
i am 56, will be 57 in June. i am 5'9" and was 127 lbs since my 20s until I married @ 47 in 2018. I knew going into the marriage it was a bad idea but thought i could manage it. You can't make the wrong person the right person. All on me. So foolish. Anyway, it was a super stressful 3.5 years and it coincided with my hormones going haywire in menopause. My highest weight was 169 lbs. The worst part is how i felt. Achy, fatigued, irritable, etc... After the divorce I lost 15 lbs almost immediately. Pretty sure it was just less cortisol from being less stressed. Keto helped me drop another 10 lbs. I went too high too fast with the fat and the gallbladder pain referred to my right shoulder and derailed me. I got ahead of my body's ability to metabolize the fat. Found carnivore and LOVE IT. Three months in. I am a carb/sugar addict. I have trouble moderating. Carnivore is simpler. Fewer choices, never hungry and the convenience. My skin glows and is so soft. Eating butter getting ready for a fat fast. I am at 140 lbs still losing lbs and inches. The # doesn't bother me as I like what I see in the mirror. The body composition is shifting. A lot of my initial weight gain went to my bust. Now I know what all my busty friends meant about being unable to find/wear cute shirts because of the girls garnering all the attention. Also just so heavy. Glad to lose them but didn't want the deflated after effects. The butter seems to have found its home there and keeping the skin firm and filled out. Only exercise for now is stretching and calisthenics. Will be adding strength training after the fast. Seeing the quick results adds to the sustainability.
I’m a 53 yo male. I started keto 6 months ago and only cheated a handful of days and the last month I’ve been doing carnivore. I’ve lost 40 lbs and am showing some sagging skin in my face and loose skin around my chest. Thanks so much for covering this topic.
I am beyong excited for this. I am in tears. I have already started BBB & E a week ago and amazed that I am feeling better so quickly. I havent even had withdrawal. I haven't lost weight, but I already (oddly) feel leaner (less bloating). The problem I'm having is kickback from friends an family.
Maybe so. I went for 3 months and took a break. It was so irriritating to my husband....costant complaint even though I fed him "normal food" as he called it. It's dificult to keep going under those circumstances. He was way more supportive when I fasted. I did Keto for 2 years. I lost 15 ponds pretty quick, plateaud and never lost another pound. I took a break and I am about to regroup and try again. I just have track my blood sugar, ketones etc., to see exactly what's going on there. I never completeley give up, but I do find myself discouraged. I seriously need to loose weight.
Thank you for your encouragement. I checked out you intro on your channel. I am a transformational coach..I do transformational type and have helped people ovecome fear and anxiety, improve social interactions and get promotions....my critique would be more explanation as to what direction you are coaching.
Ladies, this is a great conversation! Each one of you did a beautiful presentation. Thank you so much for the interesting and relevant content. Every time I watch one of your videos and participate in the meatings, I learn new things and am encouraged.
This is one of the best interviews I've seen on this topic. It really spoke to me and I look forward to all I learn on the program. I really want to learn how they handle family life as carnivores. What do you make as meals for your family, how do you handle the cravings of children, family outings, etc.
Kids are good and most cravings dissipated pretty quickly! They eat such yummy food they don’t really miss much. When we are out, we just choose meat 🥩 sometimes they hv things “off plan” but we don’t advise it, as they have pretty strong reactions to these crap foods
I am one month on carnivore and all my sweet craving and wine craving is gone.I have lost 14 kilos.I was 114.7 and now 100.7 kgs.I eat two meals a day.I stop eating at 1 pm. My next meal is at 6 am with juicy rib-eye steak because of my work.i am 66 years old.I thank god for diecting me to carnivore channel of Dr Berry and Bella the stick butter Queen.Thank you to all the ladies.
This was a wonderful group discussion. Goodness you guys, my heart is in my throat becuase of what you have all gone through and emerged to be. I want what you have so here I am... Thank yuo
This was so wonderful for me to hear. I have put so much pressure on myself to follow the Chesaux program. After hearing Jess speak and then Emily explain that we can do it at our own pace has been so helpful! thank you again Bella for putting this together!
Great information - thank you!! I have found my taste buds have become so sharp, and if I was to have to taste a food for others dinner or at work and that isn’t animal based and processed (ie crackers, pasta ) my taste buds will scream at the unnatural flavour where I actually need to spit out because it tastes so off. This way of eating is becoming life changing
My cravings for sugar, arthritis pain have decreased, over last 3 weeks. I'm still priming but feeling better less allergic reactions with skin rashes. So far lost total body 15cm and just over 2.2kgs (4.85 lbs). Thanks for all your help and advice SBG ❤️
I started carnivore 8/15/23 and I have let go of 18 pounds and my energy level is amazing I sleep better and I no longer have IBS-D every single time I eat!!! Yay and I have not had a pancreas attack or diverticulitis flare up so I am going to keep eating carnivore forever!!! The Lion 🦁 Diet version is what k have done for 97% of the past 6 weeks - I only started eating mini chaffles in the past 3 days!!! I had ecoli- candida- and neuropathy in my hands and lots of inflammation plus couldn’t sleep at night & hypothyroidism too - I’m looking forward to getting healthy
I'm going to try this again. My 1st try I quit I guess I wasn't mentally ready. I'm 62 now and feel like crap. I was struggling with the spiritual side of it too. I feel I am at peace with that now. So here goes, my upcoming grocery shopping will be different this wknd. That's when I will start.
Love this video so needed to hear these ladies as I’m down 25 Lbs on carnivore but have a stop in weight loss now and I need to keep off the scale and continue to eat as my body tells me thanks
Such a great conversation! Thank you for bringing these women together. I’ve joined the challenge for August and am looking forward to having the community, coaches and accountability. Thank you Bella 😊
Great info. I am terrified of the priming phase LOL I also really liked hearing that Jess didn't do EF and was still able to see results. I did a SBG challenge previously and the support during the challenge was great I just was not mentally ready for carnivore but am now 6 weeks in and loving it.
This is amazing. I'm a professional in the health and fitness industry. This is hard to wrap my mind around. It does go against everything I have ever learned or taught.😁🙏🏽💪🏽👋🏽
Yeah, I know what you mean! But we always need to keep an open mind, and understand that the "authorities" can sometimes miss the boat BADLY. We just saw that in a big way, the last few years (covid). What is being reported here is consistent with -- just more extreme than -- decades of observation and publication on low-carb and keto diets. One very critical point to keep in mind is that essentially 100% of the literature on pathogenicity of high fat intake speaks to diets that are moderate in fat and quite high in carbohydrate (and often junky carb at that). It is the *combination* of high fat and high carb that causes the problems, IMO. That's what causes the insulin resistance, the out of control appetite, the metabolic derangement, etc. You can eat high carb OR high fat and (usually) get away with it, but not both.
You should consider doing calls like this as a live call on youtube where people can ask question by donating. I know you do a ton inside your group, but doing a 1x a month youtube live would be cool as well and could get donations for those who want to ask their own questions.
I am nearly sixty and I can totally relate to many of the comments here. Before carnivore I was keto for a few years which was good, but carnivore is next level. In 2014 I had lost nearly 20kg and still had pre-diabetic blood results. It felt very unfair! I was inflamed and had many inconvenient health issues, IBS, joint pain etc., I am coeliac and blamed that. Now my bloods, and here I am quoting my Gp, are "metabolically perfect", very low Trigs, high HDL, HbA1c 5.4. My blood pressure 90/60. My weight normal, my inconvenient symptoms pretty much gone. Sleep is still a bit of an issue but I am also BP1 (beautifully stable 90% since going keto in 2014 and evolving to CV around 2019). I wonder if I have a blue light sensitivity. I need to experiment with glasses but need a script. I take no meds at all. I eat meat, fish, eggs, butter and occasionally a small amount of dairy. On the rare occasion I have something outside of CV I regret it for days. I still have some work to do on strength and tone, I look good but know I could do better. When people say that the restriction of carnivore is too hard I am disheartened, partly because I agree, but I look around at other people my age and their health concerns and lack of energy and I wish I could just let them experience for a day how I feel. We spend so much time using food, particularly processed food as reward or a comforter, our socialising is always around eating rather than just being present. Carnivore is perfect for me.
I'm 52 and slowly healing through this carnivore journey. My question is, could you please invite a panel of men and women and possibly teenagers, talking about prepping for the food shortage? I would love to here from Carnivore preppers. What foods to prep. Thanks in advance.
Would really enjoy seeing interviews with younger long term carnivore women who have conceived / carried pregnancies/ breastfed whilst on carnivore. The hormones & reproductive health needs are so different at that stage of life than in post menopausal or older women who are done having kids. I know for many women around my age it’s believed that carnivore simply isn’t right or has to be modified for pregnancy especially & for young children to grow & develop properly during puberty. Would love more info on this!
Ice been carnivore for 4 months now. I didn't see all of the result everyone was seeing and was really frustrated. I have IBS and my constipation came back after a few months and was really frustrated. But! I recently started tracking my caleries and and found that I was UNDER eating. By a lot. I was barely getting 1300 calories a day and often had a 50/50 with my fat and protein, or more protein than fat. So I decided to risk it all and shot for 80/20 fast to protein ratio. Two days in my bowels went back to normal, I was full, I was happier and my gut pain started going away. I think the higher fat is needed to heal issues, then can move to higher protein if you want, but it wasn't serving me at this point in my journey.
Currently feeling better on higher fat too. I have an autoimmune prob so maybe that's why. I've been adding the butter on the side, little by little though lol
I was never a big beef eater. Steak was ok, but hamburgers were boring 🥱 Now I eat 2 thick patties almost daily & top with a liverwurst patty, cheese, brewers yeast (b vit), flaxseed (omega 3), and a fried egg. Sometimes a slice of bacon too. It’s not grass fed meat, so I’m supplementing. It’s all so juicy & flavorful, I have NO desire for condiments, other toppings, or bun. And I’m full for hours, so fasting is easy. I wasn’t used to cooking every day, but it’s worth it. And I have other things to heat up if I can’t. Wish I’d known all this sooner!! Better late than never 😄
Its been 7 days. Drop 10 lbs. No joint pain anymore. Libido uppp. Gum health improves after 20 years. My nightmare huge belly melting after 5 years bloating. No reason for depression. My life changing so fast. I m shock ❤❤❤😂😂
Ive just started. Did keto a few years ago, lost 46 lbs than I stop losing weight and started gaining it back. Dont know why. Tried everything. Started keto last month March, Ive lost inches but not pounds. So now Im started priming today. I hope it works.
At 17 minute in, someone finally said what I've experienced. When I eat veggies with meat, I am immediately hungry, no matter how much I eat! Trying to eat protein and veggies together does not work for me at all!
Great chat Ladies. I seem to only come across mostly men chats, no complaining, just wanted more of a females point of view and successes. Watched several of your videos, also Kelly's, A Chaffee and many others. Going to sign up for August, been mostly winging it for 4 weeks, lost 20lb so far. Got a least another 50lb to go, would like to make sure I'm on the right track to get to my optimal weight. I'm 57, from UK and menopausal. 😊
I’m doing fine. As a 63 year old male I didn’t think loose skin would bother me. Ive lost 65 lbs. now over 3 years and have about 40 to go. I’m starting to see loose skin and its starting to bother me. I eel healthy but don’t look healthy. I’m starting to dress to hide the loose skin . I thought Man boob were bad - saggy man boobs look worse.
