I am in my sixties too and also started carnivore in February. It’s been the best eating lifestyle for me. I enjoyed your video and enjoy many of the food items you shared especially the pork belly made in the air fryer. I, too, mainly shop at Costco for many of my food finds especially the meat. I just subscribed to your channel and wish you much success in this new endeavor.
You popped up in my feed. What a pleasure. Your video was very useful and the way you deliver a message is clear and enjoyable. The Gorgonzola has huge flavor without needing a large quantity . Thank you! I just followed you. I loved this! PS Ballerina Farm has clean jerky!
Thank you for your kind comments, and I will definitely check out Ballerina Farm jerky. I was supremely disappointed one time while traveling and going to Bucky's, having heard great things about their jerky, and none of it was carnivore friendly. We have made our own in the past, but we gave our dehydrator to our son, Cory, who is also a carnivore. He is using it with great results!
Enjoyed your top 10…… I have all those items in my pantry/fridge.my husband not a carni follower so preparing his meals tempt me daily. I’ll need to have my meals first before I prepare his to keep me on the straight and narrow. I’ll be looking out for more goodies from you❤thanks🥩
Thank you for your comment and I'm glad to have you along! IDK what your experience is, but my husband is slowly converting over to a more carnivore-ish diet. He has stopped making his own side dishes, for the most part. (He made some rice the other night to go with oxtails.) He mostly indulges his omnivore inclinations when he eats out. And, along the way, I have become less and less tempted by non-carnivore foods he brings into our house. I call that progress! 😃
Thank you! I''m glad to have you along! Chicken wings are great as well - I mention in a previous video that they are one of my go-tos when eating out, If I can order them grilled or baked and not dropped in seed oils. They are deliciously fatty. I, personally, have never been a yogurt fan, but I do love some cottage cheese once in a while!
I like cooking chicken drumsticks in th air fryer. fish too expensive. red meat too expensive for me. I buy the reduced ground beef at Walmart. my drumsticks are $1.27 a pound. I have a 6 foot chest freezer in my kitchen. love thanksgiving. I buy the 88 cents per pound turkeys in bulk and throw them in the freezer. carnivore for 1 year now. diet soda to drink. no cheese. no milk. no butter for me. I was vegan since I was a teenager. I live in Joshua tree ca. most of my life and birth in chicago.
Darren - I'm so glad you have found my channel! Congrats on the 1 year carniversary!!! One of the things I love about this WOE is that it doesn't have to be expensive. The carnivore doctors say that even the cheapest meat is better than any of the processed foods most of us had in our diets before. I hope you continue to make good progress in this lifestyle.
I make my own beef jerky. I buy lean roasts when they are on sale at the grocery store and they slice it to jerky thickness. I have a dehydrator and just use salt. I keep them in the freezer because occasionally there is some fat still on and take out what I need day by day. People who have tried it love it! I have two work colleagues that always pay me to make them some.
That is awesome! We had a dehydrator we used to make venison jerky several times, but when our son, Cory, went carnivore we gave it to him. He is making homemade jerky with great results. I think it's awesome that you're making it for your friends, now! My aunt used to be known for the fudge that she would make for all her friends family at Christmas. Maybe I will start making jerky as my love project!😄
I just found you, and I’m considering Carnivore. Your tips were very helpful. I just wondered if you find social situations very difficult- I do, esp going to restaurants w our friends. Suggestions? Thx!
Hi, Jean! Thanks for the comment! That's a very important question, and it is a challenge. I find that if I have some say over which restaurant we go to, I can always find a selection that suits my needs. Now, it may come with a side of potatoes and brussels sprouts, but I either just ask for that to not be included, or I ignore it, or I give it to someone else at the table. My go to order at a nice restaurant is a steak with an add-on of shrimp or scallops. At a moderately priced restaurant, i can get a burger with cheese, egg, and/or bacon. I am a moderator, so I don't have trouble being around foods I don't want to eat and being tempted. Now, WINE is another story! 😬I would say definitely give Carnivore a 90 day trial period. I feel certain you will feel so good at the end of 90 days, that you will want to continue at some level. I now call myself "dirty carnivore," as I have added back spices and a couple very low carb foods, like dill pickles and sauerkraut.
One can usually order steak and salad. I do that. I find It's good for me to have a little break. I also use feta cheese every now and then. Eggs are our friend. All the best😊.
Howdy Maam, I try carnivore with the assumption that i eat three meals a day , eggs and meat, just enough not stuff, but it seems i am gaining not losing weight, it has been 8 months , I recently cut out Dairy. My question is do you count your calories if you want to lose weight?
Are you gaigning weight or fat? I found that you develop muscle more easily, even without any sports. Often, the body keeps using fat for cellular healing processes before it's ready to let go of the excess fat. Don't restrict calories, learn to listen to your body. Eat until you're "comfortably stuffed", as Anthony Chaffee says, and feel free to leave a meal out, if your body doesn't need food yet. If the "3x a day" is just for the ritual, have a cup of broth and an egg or a few slices of Italian or French salami. And do you still use alcohol or softdrinks?
@@lilaschwarz1236 Great comment, Lila! And good point. I have done an inbody test a few times through my journey and have gained muscle, while not even trying!
Howdy! 🤣 Thanks for the comment. I have only tracked my macros consistently for one month - in October. I did a challenge with a private group I am in. I found my average daily calories to be around 1700. But that is not my focus. My focus is on keeping my fat percentage at between 70-80% of total calories, while getting at least 120 grams of protein/day. I was using the carb manager app to track. It's pretty simple, and you may want to give it a try for a stint. It is my understanding that the body will focus on healing first before it will allow the weight to come off. Also, you may be gaining muscle while losing fat, keeping the scales at an equilibrium. Focus on non-scale victories, and track things like waist size as well. Keep at it!
I need to kniw if you can drink milk or plant based milk on Carnivore. I can drink either one, but i dont want to mess up. Im starting carnivore tomorrow to see how it is. Please reply about the milk issue
Hey, Genia! I’m so glad you’re starting Carnivore tomorrow! 🎉 Animal based milk is Carnivore, but plant based “milk” is not. But I would limit plain milk just because of the lactose (sugar) content and I would choose whole organic milk or raw milk, if available in your area. We don’t drink milk, but I keep some organic whole milk around for the grands, since I don’t want them drinking juice any more. (Their mommas agree.) Wishing you amazing results! You will love it!
hi Beth i am from south korea i am 42 years old women who has one daughter i am about to start carnivore would you filming more about how to you eat and cook? thank you
Welcome! I am so excited that you have found my channel. I would highly recommend you give this a try for 90 days. It was life changing for me! I have three other videos on eating and cooking, and I intend to record more in the near future. Check out this one next: th-cam.com/video/SrcwmavYPL4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ipaPmoSuJnzpNygo
On day 4 of my journey and have ate ground beef and eggs everyday with some bacon.im a picky eater so came to see if theres some ideas for me. Oh and I'm in Central Alabama
Welcome to my channel, Central Alabama! I bet my accent doesn't stick out that much to you! 🤣 Congrats on your first 4 days! Stick with it! It may get harder before it gets easier. That is about the point I hit the keto flu and went through some oxalate dumping. Look for my video on my first 100 days. It may be helpful to you at this point! You got this!!! 💪💪💪
I will have to look for Jones sausage. I don't know if we have that locally. Thanks for the tip! I also found that the wal-mart brand sausage is cleaner than, like, Jimmy Dean. I have purchased that a couple times!
Actually, I do not eat yogurt. I wouldn't have a problem with it, just not something that has ever been a staple in our house. I do like eating cottage cheese occasionally, though! I like it plain, now, with just some salt and pepper.
Yes, yogurt is great for the fermentation - get full fat, either Greek or regular, plain. I also enjoy buttermilk, very refreshing! And cheeses, they say the aged ones are better but any of them are OK. And 'horror of horrors' (for the purists) I am NOT lactose intolerant and have gone back to drinking MILK, so delicious -- mixed with a grass fed protein powder it can taste like ice cream.

Awww! Thanks, number 204! 🤣Glad to have you in the boat! 🚣♀
I make cream cheese with Amasi. I separate the whey and curds. Works well..
Siracha is good on pork rinds too!!

How do you know the pork rinds are fried in?
@@Gods_creation.His_harvest The ingredients will say. Some of the brands I have looked at have soybean oil or safflower oil in them.
How do you make your own whipping cream, please?

As I understand this diet you can eat anything that comes from animals which would include milk, eggs, pork ,beef, poultry, cheese, cottage cheese etc

My "Horror of horrors" is worse than yours; I eat sauerkraut and dill pickles! Also fermented foods!
@@TheCarnivino Yum, my faves!!
That’s the butter u get too and I freeze it
I probably should start freezing some as well.
That's a good idea! Thanks!
@ yes it works great cz we live over 1 hour away from Costco so I really buy in bulk when I go.
Kefir!
I have never tried Kefir! Thanks for the comment. I will make a point to try it soon!
