65 years old Been carnivore 16 months down 53lbs, off BP pills, depression pills and Xanax that I was taking for last 10 years. Been hit by 4 cars on motorcycles and arthritis that came from accidents is gone, depression and anxiety gone. Good luck it is great game changer.
I've been carnivore for 1.5 years. I've lost 40 lbs and body pains pretty much none existent now. I am 58 and I'm getting back into wheelies on my Dyna. Before Carnivore I was truly getting very old and now I look and feel so so much better. Lifestyle that fixes your lifestyle. Rooting for you guys.
I started carnivore August 3rd of this year. I’m down 15 lbs so far… Arthritis, neuropathy, inflammation, brain fog all gone!!! I’m 46 and I’ve never felt healthier in my entire life! Good for you both! Don’t listen to the sh!t talkers!
I did this lifestyle change and Lost over 100 pounds and alll my blood labs have come back the best they have ever been. I have been doing this for 4 years now. You got this.
Mike I also was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. I am also a veteran and I am always asked be my tribe if mine could be service connected. Mine is really rare and not much known about it. Good luck with the carnivore life style and I will be watching to check on the progress. Keep fighting brother as that is what we do.
Guys, I have auto immune disease too. And on the dreaded meds that cause more problems than you ever really want. You have opened my eyes to this lifestyle change and I am down!! Let's do the damn thing. Thank you 😍
While my wife does not have an autoimmune disorder, through a functional medicince doctor, she changed alot of her eating habits and saw her inflammation go way down by following their recommendations. For sure was not a cheap process but, the quality of life she gained back was worth it. May you both continue to have great health and loving relationship. Cheers.
Keep going Michael. I did it and it changed my life. Inflammation go, pills gone feel great. Key is leaning how to read label’s and incorporating in to your life. 👊🏼
One of the things that I found helpful is making my own beef jerky. I just keep a bag of it on the kitchen counter and grab a few pieces for a snack where in the past I would've grabbed a handful of chips or cookies. Good luck!
Congratulations and welcome! I’ve been carnivore since 9/22/23 and have never felt better. Zero flare ups of my Crohns and RA. So happy for you guys and it will be easy on the road once you get more into it. You’ll be very surprised with restaurants. Order off of their ala carte menus.
Michael, I applaud your willingness to change your lifestyle and diet! I too, have an auto immune disease, rheumatoid arthritis. I can totally relate to the joint swelling and vast array of drugs. I’m 63 and what I have found to the best combo for myself, carnivore, and keeping my body in motion. As they, say motion is life! Begin a consistent weight training regiment and follow your diet to the best of your ability. I’m excited to follow along on your journey and can’t wait to see all your progress! Live well, be well brotha!! 🤟
Aww thank you! We so appreciate the support! I’m sorry you have struggled with an autoimmune disorder as well. Glad you found something that works for you!
We did keto carnivore for the entire month of February. Sugars went way down, lost weight, felt better on the whole. I pray that it works for you guys..
Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis patient myself. I have controlled a lot of it with diet and exercise as well but I do have to get infusions every 8 weeks. Keep fighting and go with what works. 7 years ago I thought life was over in my early 40s and I have my life back. I have been there with horrible psoriasis head to toe and thought anything that required the use of my hands was a lost cause. I have joint damage in my hands, collar bones, hips, etc. I truly wish and hope you have a pain free life. I get to do everything I want now. Since I have gotten control I have snowboarded more days than I can count, climbed Mt St Helens, surf, and taken up riding motorcycles. Life goes on and you CAN control this.
I was diagnosed at 62 with psoriasis and PsA. I'm on Cosentyx to slow the progression. I also eat low-carb/gluten-free. I'm 69 now and have old-age arthritis too. Fatigue has been a big complaint for me with my PsA. Best wishes to you.
I was in the best shape of my life when I was on the keto diet training for a triathlon. Life and work circumstances caused me to fall out of it for several years and now I’m currently trying to get back into keto. A bit hard getting over the brain fog from training my body to burn fat for fuel instead of carbs. Kudos for you Mike for making a change for the better
I’ve not tried that diet, but since you talked about glasses, contacts , etc. I had lasik surgery 30 years ago after dealing with contacts and glasses, it was the best money I’ve ever spent!!! Good luck!!
This is the best life style change you could ever do ! My husband and I have been doing this for about 21/2 years within 6months we lost about 60 lbs ! He’s 64 I’m 58 we feel amazing! The question I get asked a lot is how do you poop with no fiber actually better than I have my whole life for once in my life I’m regular it’s the extra fat and meat ! I use pork rinds for everything I crunch them up and use on chicken,pork chops,meatloaf,fish ! People think we’re nuts and going to die of a massive heart attack but we’ve been lied to and brainwashed by the medical field and I think the vegans and vegetarians are in on it lol ! Good luck you guys! ! ❤❤
Great vid guys. The main things everybody must remove from their diet are sugar, wheat, vegetable and seed oils, all highly processed foods ,high carb food and most fruits which are high in fructose. Stick to an 18 hour fasting ,6 hour eating day and your life will change for the good in no time.
Omg. I’m going through the same thing right now. In the middle of all this testing. The swelling and pain is unbelievable. I’m so glad I found this video.
Hey brother, I’ve been doing keto diet going on eight years now. Wish you the best. Carbohydrates and high processed foods is what causes inflammation, and pain in the human body. Doing a high protein and low carbohydrate diet works for me . Feel better my friend 👊
Good for you both! So happy for you Mike, that your pain has diminished. Pay no mind to the haters who love to repeat the crooked government agencies talking points, preaching that meat will kill you or give you a heart attack. There are far more people out there doing better on it that who are not. Inflamation is the root cause of pain and every food out there, except meat, aggravates it. Good luck you two and I hope to keep hearing of your carnivore "journey".
Congratulations! I went carnivore a year ago february. Everything you talk about is so true. I suffered 16 years of pain. Within 30 days it was GONE! Best thing ever. Ignore the nasty people. Sadly they choose to remain ignorant. God luck and keep at it!
I’m glad to see y’all have discovered a lifestyle that is good for you! I’m doing keto w fasting but lean towards carnivore! I love me some crunchy veggies too! I lost 30 lbs in about 3 mos and A1C dropped about a full point to 5.9. If l have a cheat day and eat something sugary l just feel sick! You are so right it works quickly
Congratulations!! Go For It. Let us know how it working, I can stand to loose a few pounds. Stay healthy Mike, we'd like to keep you around for a while.
Welcome to the carnivore lifestyle!! I'm 62 and went carnivore just over 3 months ago (along with working out). The first few weeks were rough, but I've dropped 50 pounds and feel like I'm in my mid-20s again. Inflammation used to sideline my Fat Bob quite a bit, but I think this lifestyle just bought me another 20 years or so of riding. Best of luck to both of you on your journey!
I'm guessing Mike has psoriatic arthritis since plain ol' psoriasis wasn't enough. I feel his pain. Besides pain and stiffness, my lungs are also affected and fatigue has been debilitating. But hey, I'm 69 and am grateful to have been diagnosed at age 62 instead of earlier in life. Best wishes to you both!
Keep going man I have been carnivore for almost two months. I sleep great lost all of the inflammation in my hands and feet. I have even lost 23 pounds. I have never felt better.
Hey Shipmate, I went through something similar with severe arthritis, IBS, and pre-diabetes. I went KETO and had the same results you're having. Pain subsided, digestive tract straightened out, and blood sugar dropped a lot. Keeping you guys in prayer, hang in there. 🙏🏻☝🏻❤️✝️👣👣👣
I’m trying. 🙃 been trying. It’s why I’ve worn it curly so much this year. I had massive damage from being on blood thinners from a clot a few weeks ago
Its a great lifestyle..not only your eyesight your mental clarity goes through the roof...you think very clearly. Shout out from west monroe la. Super bonus...like Frank Thomas says in that Nugenix commercial.....your wife will like it also....WINK.
Good for you guys! I went Keto/Carnivore 5 years ago, best thing I ever did. Don't listen to the haters. I was pre-diabetic, had sleep apnea, skin issues, high cholesterol.. All of that is gone now and I lost 65 lbs! Congrats on doing it together as well. My wife joined me on my journey, and it made all the difference. With weight, you will have plateaus, but then you will have huge drop in weight. I managed to loose 13 lbs in one month.
Hi Guys, your such a loving and lovely couple. I have followed you from the beginning and enjoy your site immensely so keep up the good work and l wish you only the best for the future.
Mike keep up the good work, life sucks but we make it through. Happy for every time we have met and seeing you making life going forward. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Sorry to hear of your condition I’ve heard good things about that Diet best of luck , I’ve had similar issues I found that fasting along with that diet helps Amazing
From one Veteran to another Mike. Push on don’t worry about the nay sayers. Some people just aren’t happy unless they are trying to make other people life miserable. I am on a diet myself. Best of luck brother. Good to see you on camera for a change. If you ever come through Indianapolis, IN. Hit me up steaks on me.
Best wishes and hopes you are doing great in the long run. Always supporting people who are trying to better themselves in any way. Best wishes always!
Keeping up with the commitment is the key. If you're rigorous, you'll know if it's a good long term solution. I like to idea of adding back things one at a time to see what happens. I would sure like to see Michael stop smoking. That can only ad to the improvements.
Right on - I was on the Keto diet for most of last year before switching over to full Carnivore. I lost over 50 pounds and felt great. But I missed the variety of Keto and honestly I felt better on Keto. I also noticed my vision got WAYYY better and my psoriasis looked better also. Mine didn't cleared up fully but it got WAY better and WAY more manageable without any prescription drugs. BE CAREFUL of cheat days - I would let myself have a cheat day once a week and then around the holidays I would let myself eat whatever I wanted. Now the bad thing is, I've had a REALLY hard time getting back on the diet and for the last 5 months have returned to my old eating habits. Glad y'all are feeling better on the diet - it's a great way to live and 99% of the grocery store is irrelevant!! HA! Anyways, just found your channel and love the vids! Be safe out there.
As a vegetarian watching this I can only say that if the diet change is making a positive change in your life keep doing it. I would also recommend getting a full checkup before moving any further so you can record and identify any changes that may be negative. So far it sounds good.
Im 54 went carnivorous meat fish eggs bacon full fat everything. Im not pre diabetic any more also my lower back that has been bad for 20 years is 90% better. Brother . I also do a fast now and again . Try only eat after dinner time im uk so that means 12 daytime . If you have a bad day by eating somewhere bad like a full piza in my case just fast the next day .... You have made a great change for your life ..... all the best both if you .
Damn! Between the comments and you guys talking about this carnivore thing, I must try this, especially after quitting cigarettes and looking forward to getting better. Thanks for sharing you guys!
Sounds like you guys have it covered! ANY health condition usually becomes a pain in the ass eventually, if it didn't begin as one. Great to support and encourage each other! Ride on! (BTW, have you been to Dale's Wheels Through Time Museum in Maggie Valley, NC? Dale died not too long ago after years of being a motorcycle collector and restorer and building the Museum. His son, Matt, has picked up the keys and is continuing the work. If you like older/antique American bikes you'll not find (in my opinion) a better, more complete collection.) Just a thought for another trip.
Good for you Michael. I agree, about looking at it as a lfe change. You gotta do what you have to do. Cooking for others that do not have the same eating habbits is the worst. Good suff guys!
I've not been on the carnivore , but l've been on a 60 carb,no sugar diabetic diet for years. This sounds close to what I've been doing. The worst for me was no bread or pasta. After you've been on it for a while even a McDonald's sweet tea gives you a sugar rush. One thing I found out is shrimp is like a superfood. Stick to it it gets easier. Don't let the haters get you down,you gotta to do what you gotta do. Glad your felling better stay healthy,safe and have fun.
Hey you two. Sorry to hear of your troubles, Mike. I too, have an auto immune condition. Mine is Immune Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy. Basically my immune system is attacking my muscles. So my muscle enzymes rise to combat the damage being done by my immune system. As the enzymes rise, my immune system says this isn't right and attacks the muscles to keep them in check. So it's a vicious cycle. It's debilitating. I lost 60 lbs. In 3 months. Being 6'2" tall, normally 220 lbs and going to 160 was scary. I lost so much muscle, I could barely walk, I couldn't dress my self, I was so bad, I had difficulty swallowing. After al.ost a year of every kind of testing imaginable, and seeing countless Doctors and specialists, my Rheumatologist did a muscle biopsy and that's when we found it. God knows I've taken so many meds, steroids, immune suppressors, etc. I go for infusion theropy every 6 months with a med called retuxant. I has been working really well for me. Due to this condition I have been unable ride. It's been 27 months and 24 days since my last ride. BUT, this month I will be able to ease back into it. I had to retire because of this as well. So now I concentrate on my health and getting back on two. Motorcycling was my life. It was my hobby and my career (motor officer), and now I can finally get back to it. I wish you nothing but the best in your recovery. And I will definitely be researching this carnivore lifestyle. I do love meat and am a advid hunter and fisher. So it wouldn't be hard to get in to. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. This could be a game changer for so many people. I'll keep following (been a subscriber since your second or third video). You guys are a blast. I hope to meet you both someday soon. Be safe. Remember, I'm rootin fer ya.
There are over 100 different autoimmune diseases. Your's is very rare. Best wishes getting back in the saddle. I have psoriatic arthritis and multiple back issues. Finally realized my riding days were over about 3 years ago. Broke my heart. 😢 Been in the wind since age 16 and am now 69 and a great-grandma.
Hey Meg and Mike, I've done carnivore on and off with good results, a big tip is to use Celtic Sea Salt not processed salt, the Celtic salt will give you all essential minerals the body is depleted in due to modern chemicals in food, it also makes the body absorb water to a cellular level, best of luck and prayers for Michael.
I lost 40lbs in 41 days. But I don’t suggest getting cancer and blood clots. My aunt has lupus, so I know all about auto immune disease. Live in WV. What part of WV do you’ll ride? Lost my job 2 years ago due to a back injury, and all my insurance companies have refused me and SSI I’m still waiting on. I got 200 miles last year on 2 wheels. Good luck on the change.
Dam Mike take care of your self living with pain ant fun I have been living with it because of my disk being gone out of my spine that's 3 of them it's just bone on bone take care of yourself bro.
I know how you feel , I had a bad bike accident in 1984 , 36 operations, I am in bad pain all day long , I am lucky I get doctors prescription Vicodin been taking them along time since the 90’s you do what you got to do , protein is the best way to eat , you can do it
I started mine about two weeks ago. Pretty much steak only. I dropped 14lbs in one week. I had to slow it down a bit by eating a small amount of normal food. It will work for sure. It slows down your digestion and keeps you from getting as hungry. Listen no need to be hungry just eat more steak. I suggest a dry sauna 3 times a week to help metabolize the fat loss. We have YMCA here but find a gym or spa with a dry sauna.
Hello yes iv done the carnivore since about February and I feel great. Now I am about 80 percent of the week carnivore. Weekends I'll have a cheat meal Friday and Saturday supper. All week is meat but it seems to help good luck.
The pain Train is REAL better to be in front than behind it. After many years of Lupus there is no guarantee fix all take a shot a pill a hot sauna. It’s a moving target. Fresh air and a little exercise works best for me. Get them bones joints tendons ligaments all of those moving around.
I’m so sorry to hear you have lupus. My mom had lupus as well but has been in remission for some time. It wasn’t easy. I’m glad to hear you found something that works.
You guys to add really good flavor the smoker is your friend. Meet that our plane and normally need sauces greatly from a smoker and you can do large quantities of them at a time.
I deal with inflammation and pain from a condition as well. It became incapacitating last fall. I purchased an infrared sauna and it has helped immensely. I am not 100% yet and now feel I need try carnivore. I am going to reach out privately, I may be able to help with sourcing high quality meats. I also have a portable grill that is mc packable UCO Flat pack grill. I have not done carnivore, but have done low carb.
Aww thank you! We would love that. So sorry to hear about your pain. It’s been so hard for me watching him suffer because I wish I could fix his and yours too. Hopefully this is helpful!
Truthfully, I just thought he was getting comfortable. That’s why he was gaining weight that’s what I did. I got comfortable with eating I was born with a bad heart I’ve got up to 260 pounds not good so I am on the same diet the carnivore diet. I’ve lost 32 pounds keep going man it’s worth it.
He gained the weight because of the meds he was on. He put on 25 pounds in a month and nothing else about his lifestyle had changed. He’s always been in the gym, the whole time.

All the best for Mike. I hope the pain-problems will be solved. Greetings from Germany
Mike I also was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. I am also a veteran and I am always asked be my tribe if mine could be service connected. Mine is really rare and not much known about it. Good luck with the carnivore life style and I will be watching to check on the progress. Keep fighting brother as that is what we do.
Guys, I have auto immune disease too. And on the dreaded meds that cause more problems than you ever really want. You have opened my eyes to this lifestyle change and I am down!! Let's do the damn thing. Thank you 😍
Aww so glad. Hope it helps you as much as it helped Mike.
While my wife does not have an autoimmune disorder, through a functional medicince doctor, she changed alot of her eating habits and saw her inflammation go way down by following their recommendations. For sure was not a cheap process but, the quality of life she gained back was worth it. May you both continue to have great health and loving relationship. Cheers.
Aww thank you! We appreciate your kind words. I’m so glad your wife has seen some results and is loving an easier lifestyle!
Keep going Michael. I did it and it changed my life. Inflammation go, pills gone feel great. Key is leaning how to read label’s and incorporating in to your life. 👊🏼
One of the things that I found helpful is making my own beef jerky. I just keep a bag of it on the kitchen counter and grab a few pieces for a snack where in the past I would've grabbed a handful of chips or cookies. Good luck!
I do the same! Homemade beef jerky is the best!
God bless, I'm happy the two of you are doing great 👍 ❤
Thank you! We are happy to start a new WOE!

Aww thank you for the kind words. It’s so encouraging to hear other’s success stories.

I’ve not tried that diet, but since you talked about glasses, contacts , etc. I had lasik surgery 30 years ago after dealing with contacts and glasses, it was the best money I’ve ever spent!!! Good luck!!
Mike had lasik too and agrees. His has gotten worse though since he had it done.

So happy to hear you’re finding solutions to help with your health. Amazing news to hear you’re already seeing results! Love you guys!
That sounds like me, so I am going to look into that lifestyle. Thanks so much. Best of luck to the both of you.

You all make a great couple ❤ you can see the love!!
Keep going man I have been carnivore for almost two months. I sleep great lost all of the inflammation in my hands and feet. I have even lost 23 pounds. I have never felt better.

Sorry to hear of your condition I’ve heard good things about that Diet best of luck , I’ve had similar issues I found that fasting along with that diet helps Amazing
From one Veteran to another Mike. Push on don’t worry about the nay sayers. Some people just aren’t happy unless they are trying to make other people life miserable. I am on a diet myself. Best of luck brother. Good to see you on camera for a change. If you ever come through Indianapolis, IN. Hit me up steaks on me.
Best wishes and hopes you are doing great in the long run. Always supporting people who are trying to better themselves in any way. Best wishes always!
Keeping up with the commitment is the key. If you're rigorous, you'll know if it's a good long term solution. I like to idea of adding back things one at a time to see what happens. I would sure like to see Michael stop smoking. That can only ad to the improvements.
Right on - I was on the Keto diet for most of last year before switching over to full Carnivore. I lost over 50 pounds and felt great. But I missed the variety of Keto and honestly I felt better on Keto. I also noticed my vision got WAYYY better and my psoriasis looked better also. Mine didn't cleared up fully but it got WAY better and WAY more manageable without any prescription drugs.
BE CAREFUL of cheat days - I would let myself have a cheat day once a week and then around the holidays I would let myself eat whatever I wanted. Now the bad thing is, I've had a REALLY hard time getting back on the diet and for the last 5 months have returned to my old eating habits.
Glad y'all are feeling better on the diet - it's a great way to live and 99% of the grocery store is irrelevant!! HA!
Anyways, just found your channel and love the vids! Be safe out there.
Best of luck. Whatever it takes for your health and well being. Love following you guys.
Meg it’s not a diet it’s a way of life 😂 good for you Magic Mike keep doing whatever keeps you well 👍
That’s what everyone keeps saying. Thanks for your support!
As a vegetarian watching this I can only say that if the diet change is making a positive change in your life keep doing it. I would also recommend getting a full checkup before moving any further so you can record and identify any changes that may be negative. So far it sounds good.
Thank you for your open mind and your kindness. I’ll stay on top of him. 🙃
You gotta do what you gotta do to feel better! I hope it leads to a real solution for your pain. Ride on!
Good for you both. It's not the carnivore diet, it's the Sasquatch Diet Thanks for sharing
Aww thanks for making us both laugh! Appreciate the support!
Keep up the great work you're doing, glad to hear you're doing better
Good luck with your new journey always enjoy watching
We appreciate you watching and the kind words.
Im 54 went carnivorous meat fish eggs bacon full fat everything. Im not pre diabetic any more also my lower back that has been bad for 20 years is 90% better. Brother . I also do a fast now and again . Try only eat after dinner time im uk so that means 12 daytime .
If you have a bad day by eating somewhere bad like a full piza in my case just fast the next day ....
You have made a great change for your life ..... all the best both if you .
a mediterainian diet might also help to... but what ever works works wishing you both good health and continued motorbike journeys
Damn! Between the comments and you guys talking about this carnivore thing, I must try this, especially after quitting cigarettes and looking forward to getting better. Thanks for sharing you guys!
God love. Cheering for you guys!
Awww appreciate that!
Sounds like you guys have it covered! ANY health condition usually becomes a pain in the ass eventually, if it didn't begin as one. Great to support and encourage each other! Ride on! (BTW, have you been to Dale's Wheels Through Time Museum in Maggie Valley, NC? Dale died not too long ago after years of being a motorcycle collector and restorer and building the Museum. His son, Matt, has picked up the keys and is continuing the work. If you like older/antique American bikes you'll not find (in my opinion) a better, more complete collection.) Just a thought for another trip.
Don't cheat with the ice cream! It will throw away some of that hard work and discipline. Keep up the good work
Good for you Michael. I agree, about looking at it as a lfe change. You gotta do what you have to do. Cooking for others that do not have the same eating habbits is the worst. Good suff guys!
Good for both of you. I am really leaning on trying it. I am 64 and have really bad hip and knee pain.
You can do anything for 30 days. Then just keep going because you will see significant changes
Glad you found some relief good luck!
I've not been on the carnivore , but l've been on a 60 carb,no sugar diabetic diet for years. This sounds close to what I've been doing. The worst for me was no bread or pasta. After you've been on it for a while even a McDonald's sweet tea gives you a sugar rush. One thing I found out is shrimp is like a superfood. Stick to it it gets easier. Don't let the haters get you down,you gotta to do what you gotta do. Glad your felling better stay healthy,safe and have fun.
Aww thank you! We appreciate the kind words.
I’ve never heard of it but I’ll be trying it because I don’t think Advil should be known as a food group
Also, give up the smokes. It's hard, but in the long run you'll be glad you did it.
Hey you two. Sorry to hear of your troubles, Mike. I too, have an auto immune condition. Mine is Immune Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy. Basically my immune system is attacking my muscles. So my muscle enzymes rise to combat the damage being done by my immune system. As the enzymes rise, my immune system says this isn't right and attacks the muscles to keep them in check. So it's a vicious cycle. It's debilitating. I lost 60 lbs. In 3 months. Being 6'2" tall, normally 220 lbs and going to 160 was scary. I lost so much muscle, I could barely walk, I couldn't dress my self, I was so bad, I had difficulty swallowing. After al.ost a year of every kind of testing imaginable, and seeing countless Doctors and specialists, my Rheumatologist did a muscle biopsy and that's when we found it. God knows I've taken so many meds, steroids, immune suppressors, etc. I go for infusion theropy every 6 months with a med called retuxant. I has been working really well for me. Due to this condition I have been unable ride. It's been 27 months and 24 days since my last ride. BUT, this month I will be able to ease back into it. I had to retire because of this as well. So now I concentrate on my health and getting back on two. Motorcycling was my life. It was my hobby and my career (motor officer), and now I can finally get back to it. I wish you nothing but the best in your recovery. And I will definitely be researching this carnivore lifestyle. I do love meat and am a advid hunter and fisher. So it wouldn't be hard to get in to. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. This could be a game changer for so many people. I'll keep following (been a subscriber since your second or third video). You guys are a blast. I hope to meet you both someday soon. Be safe. Remember, I'm rootin fer ya.
There are over 100 different autoimmune diseases. Your's is very rare. Best wishes getting back in the saddle. I have psoriatic arthritis and multiple back issues. Finally realized my riding days were over about 3 years ago. Broke my heart. 😢 Been in the wind since age 16 and am now 69 and a great-grandma.
this is a great video glad it's working for you
Fantastic. Good on you both. I have ibs and was considering this diet. Will give it a go now. Thanks😊
Good for you!!!
Hey Meg and Mike, I've done carnivore on and off with good results, a big tip is to use Celtic Sea Salt not processed salt, the Celtic salt will give you all essential minerals the body is depleted in due to modern chemicals in food, it also makes the body absorb water to a cellular level, best of luck and prayers for Michael.
The best of the best is Redmonds Real Salt… try it! You’ll thank me later!
It works for Sasquatch! He only eats deer, salmon, and a few ground squirrels! Squatch sleeps12 hours in the day and squatches all night.
Hahaha. Mike now wants to call the Sasquatch diet.
I lost 40lbs in 41 days. But I don’t suggest getting cancer and blood clots. My aunt has lupus, so I know all about auto immune disease. Live in WV. What part of WV do you’ll ride? Lost my job 2 years ago due to a back injury, and all my insurance companies have refused me and SSI I’m still waiting on. I got 200 miles last year on 2 wheels. Good luck on the change.
Good luck to both of you and bless you!
Dam Mike take care of your self living with pain ant fun I have been living with it because of my disk being gone out of my spine that's 3 of them it's just bone on bone take care of yourself bro.
Aww we’re so sorry to hear that. We’ll be thinking good thoughts for healing for you.
I wish you the best of luck!
Thank you!
I’ve been carnivore for 3 yrs and won’t go back. Stay strong and you won’t regret.
I know how you feel , I had a bad bike accident in 1984 , 36 operations, I am in bad pain all day long , I am lucky I get doctors prescription Vicodin been taking them along time since the 90’s you do what you got to do , protein is the best way to eat , you can do it
Mike is way cool. You guys rock. Be happy.
I started mine about two weeks ago. Pretty much steak only. I dropped 14lbs in one week. I had to slow it down a bit by eating a small amount of normal food. It will work for sure. It slows down your digestion and keeps you from getting as hungry. Listen no need to be hungry just eat more steak. I suggest a dry sauna 3 times a week to help metabolize the fat loss. We have YMCA here but find a gym or spa with a dry sauna.
Hello yes iv done the carnivore since about February and I feel great. Now I am about 80 percent of the week carnivore. Weekends I'll have a cheat meal Friday and Saturday supper. All week is meat but it seems to help good luck.
I’m interested in how this goes. I have polymyalga myself. This is very interesting I may have to try this.
👍my son is doing it keep it goin guys good luck
Aww thank you! We’re doing our best.
The pain Train is REAL better to be in front than behind it. After many years of Lupus there is no guarantee fix all take a shot a pill a hot sauna. It’s a moving target. Fresh air and a little exercise works best for me. Get them bones joints tendons ligaments all of those moving around.
I’m so sorry to hear you have lupus. My mom had lupus as well but has been in remission for some time. It wasn’t easy. I’m glad to hear you found something that works.
Feel better cameraman. Best of luck.
You guys to add really good flavor the smoker is your friend. Meet that our plane and normally need sauces greatly from a smoker and you can do large quantities of them at a time.
Hey fellow Marylanders in keeping with the theme of this video I was wondering how I would get a calendar for my shop?
Where is your shop? Could we hand deliver it by motorcycle?
@@megsmotorcyclejourney That would be great except I'm in Minnesota. Formerly of Cumberland, Maryland 🙂
I deal with inflammation and pain from a condition as well. It became incapacitating last fall. I purchased an infrared sauna and it has helped immensely. I am not 100% yet and now feel I need try carnivore. I am going to reach out privately, I may be able to help with sourcing high quality meats. I also have a portable grill that is mc packable UCO Flat pack grill. I have not done carnivore, but have done low carb.
Aww thank you! We would love that. So sorry to hear about your pain. It’s been so hard for me watching him suffer because I wish I could fix his and yours too. Hopefully this is helpful!
I just sent you an email from my work address with subject line from cavma61 …work address. Want to make sure you don’t miss it
I sent you an email from my work email. Don’t want you to miss it, thought I posted this before but don’t see it now. Sorry if double post
Michael is cool 😎.
im going to try this thanks for sharing
I've been on Keto/carnivore for a little over a year ago. Lost almost 50 pounds and all my labs have improved drastically.
Truthfully, I just thought he was getting comfortable. That’s why he was gaining weight that’s what I did. I got comfortable with eating I was born with a bad heart I’ve got up to 260 pounds not good so I am on the same diet the carnivore diet. I’ve lost 32 pounds keep going man it’s worth it.
He gained the weight because of the meds he was on. He put on 25 pounds in a month and nothing else about his lifestyle had changed. He’s always been in the gym, the whole time.
@@megsmotorcyclejourney meds can mess your body up tell him to keep up the meat 🥩 program it works
