I love this! I too once weighed about 300 pounds. I lost most of that weight and kept most of it off doing a ketogenic/Atkins type diet for a little over a decade. But I still didn't have much energy and then I was in a car wreck which messed up my back so that didn't help anything. My husband started doing Carnivore for some health issues about two years ago and it improved his problems so much he kept telling me I ought to try it. So I did. And it is crazy amazing. We are going to be hiking from the North Rim to the South Rim at the end of August with two nights at Phantom Ranch and I was thinking last July when we set all this up, how the heck was I going to walk up the South Rim because I had so little energy and my back and neck hurt from the car wreck, I better do something! Well, I did. I started doing Carnivore, and I can't even believe this myself - I've started running and I've even signed up for a 5K for after we get back from our trip. My back and neck are much improved too. I used to joke that if you saw me running, you'd better run because there was probably a bear after me. I'm feeling much more confident about getting up the South Rim, and if there's a bear after me, I'm hoping to outrun the slowest person! 🤭
