Good luck with your continuing health improvement. We’re about the same age. I’ve always been skinny & probably underweight. I made a rather wimpy effort to go carnivore 6 months ago and ended up with severe constipation and “by-pass” diarrhoea because of it. Ended up in casualty in great discomfort one winter’s night. They laughed & sent me waddling off to a pharmacy to get some suppositories! It took me 5 days to painfully un-bung myself (manually!) Never had to do that before and it was pretty awful. I have had 2 Inguinal Hernia repairs in the past, so whether that had anything to do with it…who knows. I love my meat and fish, but I was glad to give up my failed attempt after that experience! I do hear some remarkable stories from TH-camrs and their followers / interviewees. But of course the same goes for “the other side”, doesn’t it?!
Hi Steve, so sorry to hear about your severe constipation. Sounds painful. It took me this long to start feeling good on the carnivore diet. Wish you all the best. Cheers
