I was so grossed out but I was able to do one day, the day before yesterday. Yesterday I went back to ribeye and after watching this I decided I can tolerate them enough to incorporate them more for the nutrients. This morning I woke up and crazy as it is, I craved sardines! I ate two cans for my first meal. I call them fish steaks to handle it, but this morning they tasted pretty good. I guess my body liked them. I will incorporate either a day or three here and there or use them for one meal. So weird! It definitely is a nice change to reset.

You are so right, we have to make a decision to change. An acquaintance keeps stating she is Polish, and has to eat the Polish foods, one’s high in carbs especially sugar. But, she is diabetic, her body is inflamed as she always complains about aches and pains, and she is at an unhealthy weight. But, because she loves and the kruschiki, kolaczki, babka, etc., and identifies with Polish food, she will not change. Crazy.

Polar or King Oscar lightly, NATURALLY SMOKED -fantastic right out of the can! ( I sprinkle with Kinders Garlic-Pepper-Salt seasoning… so delicious!! (I was not a sardine eater AT ALL before this challenge, BTW)

Hi 👋🏽 very nice conversation ladies. Thank you. I’m on my 11th day of the Sardine (only) Challenge. It sounds weird for many but I’m actually loving it 😅🙋🏽‍♀️

Day 5 for me...down 7 lbs! I have 40 lbs to lose. My morning glucose is now 75 and my ketones are up to 2.5. I am heading to 7 days. Will reaccess and may continue longer. All the food noise has left and I feel like I have freedom!

I'm going to do the same thing that Adrian is planning. I'm going to do sardines Tuesday Wednesday and Thursdays and then I'm going to eat regular carnivore Friday Saturday Sunday Monday. I had super good results high ketones and lost seven pounds so im happy.

I’m on day two and learning so much. I lost 1 1/2 lbs in one day. Crazy!!!! Yay!

Thank you ladies for the chat! Being women we struggle with so many issues and the hormones are the biggest (I'm 63). Losing weight even on carnivore is still not as easy as most of the male doctors/influencers say it is. I for one say do what is right for your body, it's your own health journey. Thanks again for sharing your stories through this challenge...it has helped me gain a lot of useful information for myself going forward. ❤

I totally agree with this is a reboot! And I use it for that because we need it to keep us clean

Just started today! 1st can down at 9am. I'm using Beach Cliff in water. Not very fishy at all & only .98 a tin at WalMart

Jason Fungi’s book The Obesity Code explains why we lose then gain more weight back. I’m listening to the audio book - it’s uncomfortable to hear the truth but reassuring to hear it’s not our fault in ANY way. When we understand how our system works we can do sth about it.

52:03 - sardine smell - rinse the can out before putting it into the kitchen trash.

I missed the live, but watching the replay. Thanks ladies, very helpful info for my addicted behaviors.

Thank you so much beautiful ladies.. much good information here and much appreciated 💖👏

I did 3 days. Trying to talk myself into the 4th day. I did have a protein shake this morning with one egg in it. But thinking about a can of sardines for lunch. Surely I can get 2 more cans down. I’ve lost 2.75 pounds in 3 days.

I did 9 days last night I dreamt about meat. So today I ate a 1lb of ground beef.

Thank you ladies for being so vulnerable and sharing your results with this fast. My husband is diabetic and we've been carnivore for over two months. Despite having no carbs, his blood sugars have been unable to drop without medication. He's on day two of the sardine fast and already having dramatic glucose improvements! I hate seafood but I'm considering trying this fast because of his results and you three.

if you want fresh frozen sardines go to a Chinese Supermarket.

Thanks ladies …inspiration to try something to hack the metabolism. Will definitely do at least 3 day challenge

Thank you ladies! I’m watching this late after watching a few videos of Dr Boz sardine challenge. I am grateful to hear that I’m not the only one struggling with food/sugar/carb addictions.

So interesting .. I’m listening and learning so I can do it!!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪

Thanks Courtney for sharing your experience. I worry about having this same issue once I’m done with my sardine fast (day 7 today). I really appreciate you sharing your very real experience and I can only imagine how difficult that was. It was so helpful for me to hear. I just love how real you are. Keep at it!!! 😊

Iv done 7 days eating sardines and matcha latte iv lost 7lbs 🎉

Thank you for the great ideas 👍 very inspirational- Sardines make your skin glow...☀️ Also naturally increases your Vitamin D

I’m starting today.

Love and light

I am a binger when it comes to pork rinds dipped in sour cream. So I stopped buying pork rinds. Also, I feel fear of fasting because in the past, I definitely went on a binge after the fast. I would rather just incorporate sardines in my daily menu for about 4 days a week. The rest of the days, beef and egg only.

i love the polar kipper snacks and all the tinned fish! Is thte ultimate keto fast food! No one takes care of me so i had to find something I could eat without cooking so i could take care of others or when am sick.

I’m starting tomorrow 6/25. Cans ready! Never ate one before! I’m guessing I’ll be called names in the break room!

My eating is so out of control and my plan starting is week. Thursday,Friday and Saturday will be sardines hoping to do till end of June.

I ate one can in water with a tad bit of mustard today. Straight out of the can. Its 7 pm watching this and I am beyond full from having the can at about 1. I am 5'4" 56 140 at the moment. I made my family dinner [hamburgers] and I didnt even crave it whatsoever. Lol. Amazing how little fishies fill you up! Literally first time I ever even tried them. Wasnt awful. 😅

Sardines rock! Rnergy thru the roof! I don't like them except sautéed in butter with lemon. Have to stop butter because of candida😢 only 2 cans a day.

I can't do sardines but can do a egg fast Last week I lost 5 lbs I am going to do this eggs fast for June 3 days a week and give that a try

I’m down with the “Sealion” diet 😃

I did it for the omega 3 s that very much so needed I never weighed.I sure was hot alot and sweating.

So identify with all that you ladies were saying. Disordered history with food here. Been menopausal for quite some time. Age 60 and not just in a stall but started hrt and gaining😤😫😫

Day one for me, hoping to have results. 😊 I gained 5 pounds with BBBE this winter!

Hi all!! Thank you so much for sharing all that you do ladies!! I am on day 3 of sardines in water with mustard and hot sauce only and have gained 3 lbs :(. I was hoping this would help with weight loss as I have been hard core carnivore since Aug 2023 and only lost 14 lbs - still have 40lbs to goal and things just aren’t happening. I have been in a few support groups such as Maria Emmerich and Dani Conway to get insight on macros and eating according to TDEE and I am SUPER at a loss 😢😢😢

our bodies get complacent with status quo. Occasionally it needs a challenge.

I've done 5 days, going to try for 7. I think 10 might be toooo much lol I've lost 2.5 pounds but the highest I've been able to get my ketones are 1.1. I'm also fasting 20 hours a day so I thought they should be getting higher? I'm having 5 or 6 cans a day in 2 meals though today was just one meal. Still looking for the "feeling fabulous"!

I ate 3 cans I was stuffed, the most I ate was 3 cans. Ate twice a day.

i wonder if i would be beneficial to start out replacing 1 meal a day with sardines. Instead of just jumping right into a sardine challenge. I decided to do just that and so I lightly pan fried some in butter so they were warm and ate them with hot sauce and they were absolutely delish. I was thinking I wouldn't be able to stomach even one can and i've already eaten 2 cans for dinner.

being a creature of habit I have done the 72 hour sardine fast for the last 3 weeks … is it good to continue to do this every week … I am carnivore on the other 4 days

14:31

What is the group & where do i find it? And is it free?

I did a parasite cleanse and since my cravings have GONE! Maybe worth trying this? (I had several dead worms the length of my hand come Out of me!!)

don't buy the carnivire bars uts like candy bars

Is it ok to do the challenge to get a jumpstart into carnivore? I last ate at two today and have only drinking water with element and some unsweetened plain tea My goal is carnivore but feel like I need a jumpstart Any advice is appreciated

Bummer. I love sardines and was always happy that no one else bought them. I’d buy them by the case because my dogs get them too. I hope this trend doesn’t make them hard to get now.

Can you have black coffee during the sardines fast?

Do you still take your supplements or electrolytes during this fast?

wow i never realized the food addiction in ppeople. You guys sound like my bf who would eat all day if i let him lol

That should be a crime to charge $10-$11 dollars per carnivore bar. I would Never support that and if it causes this many people this much overeating issues than it shouldn’t be eaten anyway. Figure out how to make your own 👍🏻

When I started with eating sardines, this video helped me very much and is extremely funny, if you are able to laugh a little about yourself: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6TEcIsZFTPw.html
