      SARDINES (That's for the FREE sardines!)
      I've been doing the sardine fast with you but I am eating a few pork rinds with mine. Only eating 2 cans once a day. I like apple cider vinegar with mine and either some mustard or hot sauce. I don't mind the tails because I grew up in the south eating the tails on fried panfish like bream, bass, and crappie! I've been stalled for the last couple of months so I'm also checking my ketones for the first time too. I was surprised that my ketones were only .5 after eating OMAD on sardines! My sugar has been very low for me getting down to 66. I feel dizzy at about 68. Dr. Boz was saying you couldn't lose weight consistently if your sugar is three digits so it's hard for me to stay under a 100. I have type II diabetes. Before I started carnivore I was having sugar numbers into the 400's!! I've done really good since I started carnivore/ketovore last Sept. Good luck on reaching your goal, but you seriously look good where you are!

    I LOVE Sardines! Military brat, so mom bought for us to eat after school. You’ve got to put hot sauce on them. Not the regular hot sauce, but flavorful hot sauce, like Louisiana Hot sauce. Just a little. The sardines are cooked so the tails, skin and bones are great to eat. I’m doing a 30 day water fast but I will come off it with broth for a few days, then soup and then hope to move to sardines for about a week. Can’t wait! Thanks for your awesome vid!

I eat normally until 4pm. for breakfast i have 1 heaped 1/4 c of raw organic oatmeal, with 2 lg spoonfuls of organic applesauce, half tbsp cocoa, bit of vanilla, bit of stevia, all mixed together well, and i dont cook it, i eat it raw, its really good and filling! then i have a slice of gf bread with bit of peanut butter. for lunch i have a small normal lunch with bit of potato 1/3 of a cup, some other meat 1/3 cup, bit of gravey (pkgd) or sauce. might have a few starch snacks (cheez it etc) SMALL amt of them and some fruit before 4pm. then i have 1 can of sardines at 4pm; then perhaps 1 apple at 10pm. I also have 300mg magnesium before bedtime, zinc, iron pills EVERY day, collagen powder every day. I play tennis 2x a week and ping pong 1x a week. this works for me.

    YOU CAN ADD SMOKE FLAVORING, I prefer the Chicken of the Sea 18pack in olive oil, skinless boneless kind of defeats the purpose? calcium & minerals are in bones, skin, tails

    Okay. I threw some shade (teasingly) at the beginning of this journey but you’ve done amazing. Not sure I’m ready for a sardine fast for myself, but I have found myself buying cans of sardines from different companies and in different “flavors” because it’s nutritious fuel that I also won’t overeat. Anyway, amazing work and congrats on the success!

So I'll wait until the 2nd week of June to mentally prepare...to eat the sardines. My goal is to complete 3-4 days. And no judgement from me Courtney, I think you did a fantastic job on your challenge & how you explained your hunger cues & the types of sardines you liked the best. It's giving me the confidence to try it, so thank you for the very informative video! And oh yeah....SARDINES!

    It was great seeing your video today. I'm an emotional eater too. And I love to cook. It's a deadly combination. Your 6 lb weight loss was awesome and I'd love to break the weight gain cycle I'm in, but I've decided to take a slightly different route. I'm doing 3-day sardine fasts once a week (carnivore the other 4) until I reach my goal. I just finished the first week and lost 5 lbs. It will take some time, but I'm hoping to arrive at my destination sooner than carnivore alone.

I usually smash them up or eat whole with hot sauce and horseradish and sometimes with dijon with cracker or crusty bread

    I’m in the middle of my 3 day sardine challenge. I’m surprised at how different the different brands taste. I switched to water packed because so many of the oil packed has soybean oil(I’m allergic to soy of all kinds)and the Season brand is my favorite. I discovered that the smaller sardines were fishier tasting than the brands that were larger fish. Season cans have 4-5 large sardines and they taste less fishy than other brands.

    I don't love sardines, but I don't hate them either. I eat them mixed with avocado mayo and some seasoning. I'm not carnivore, so I'll saute some veg and then break up the sardines and sprinkle them on top with some seasoning.
    The reason to go carnivore is to get rid of the crap, right. "Natural flavors" are usually anything but natural.
    Also, the skin and bones have lots of good nutrients.

  • @Suzanne-goes-Carnivore

    2:30 It's really good to know you can do 'maintenance mode', because that is also very important. I have been doing maintenance mode for 3 months now, and it wasn't supposed to be maintance mode because I do also want to lose some more weight. So I am going to go back to basics (day 1) and do a 30 day Meat, Fish, Butter and Eggs challenge. Dairy kept creeping back in (lots of decaf cappuccino's, brie, greek yogurt for dessert) and this lead to a cheat day on Saturday and finishing what was left over on Sunday and now I have cheated the last 3 Saturday's and I need to put a break on it.
    So wish me luck!
