Three weeks finally off my BP meds and 17 pounds down. Finally 100% carnivore. Took me 3 yrs to get in the groove. I intermittent fast and I have more energy. I only eat between noon and five o’clock and usually one meal a day. Since quitting carbs, I don’t crave junk. Once I eat meat I’m satisfied. I also use egg white wraps for lunch egg burritos with hamburger meat with Redmonds taco seasoning and a TBSP of sour cream. Very filling. We also eat steak, pork belly and many meats. No sugar whatsoever. It’s cheaper bc you aren’t buying sodas, bread and ice cream and chips and cookies etc…etc…etc
I'll be 70 in November. I know carnivore works because I've tried it before. Now, I'm determined to stick with it. Listening to Laura to get really motivated. Day 1 today.
Day 55 for me, 51 year old male. I'm down 35+ lbs, I'm off my blood pressure meds, I have been on them for about 10 years. I sleep better, I feel better, I sleep better. My wife is kinda starting, I'm not trying to pressure her, just trying to be a good example.
The statement you made on Dr Berry’s interview was gold! ‘Don’t let perfect be the enemy of the good.’ I have a terrible (in my mind) mindset of my diet (or whatever I’m doing) has to be perfect or it’s a complete failure. That statement is going to be so encouraging going forward. Appreciate you!!
I am gratefully for you saying "we couldn't buy the kids food bcuz we would eat it" I stuggle.feeling guilty that I cannot handle having my kids and hubby's food around. I appreciate your honesty and incredible wealth of info and knowledge. Thank you!❤
I actually started carnivore on September 23d to give myself exactly 3 months to lose some weight (I have about 15 pounds to lose total, so nothing too scary) and to be able to enjoy Christmas food without any guilt. It's actually super easy to stick to with this mindset of "I can do anything for just 3 months!". And it's not my first time on keto/carnivore either. It's going great so far, I lost almost 7 pounds already. But Laura, I want you to know that you made this diet so much easier and enjoyable for me! The rule of having two different things on a plate and a "carnivore salad" were game changers for me, thank you!
@lauraspath I was wondering if you could please comment on the maltodextrin controversy with LMNT? (Apparently they use approximately 400mg of maltodextrin as a flavor carrier labeled as “natural flavors” and had been telling customers who asked about it that they use only 4 mg). I know you mainly use the unflavored version, which I assume doesn’t have that ingredient, but many of us use the flavored ones. Thanks!
I'm 64 and started keto a few years ago and increased my meat consumption. I feel great. I'd love to start carnivore but I have an orchard in my backyard full of fruit!! The temptation is too much!! 😂😂😂
I’m new and this is the first time I caught your live. Thanks for answering all the questions. It was super helpful and very informative. I’ll be joining the local community!❤
I legit did not see that little tear on the packets until I just bought my 2nd order. Oops. Also I got free packets of the winter medley in the mail yesterday, excited to try some new flavors. I need a chocolate caramel to see if it's any good though.
I am a 51 year old male, I personally am trying to drop a lot of weight. Since im dropping weight my body will be processing a lot of my body fat, im assuming at some point I will need to change my eating and fasting schedule when I drop a lot more weight.
I started the carnivore diet 3 weeks ago lost 7 pounds and it looks like I stop loosing the weight even by eating less than before and following strictly the diet. I am starting to feel frustrated. What would be the reason? Thanks!
It’s a nutrient dense diet, you are healing. Feeding every part of your body that’s needs nutrition. People usually builds muscle on this process as well.
Some helpful info I got from another video…its not considered a weight loss stale until 8 weeks have passed without losing weight. Your body is healing…
Doc says not to fast because my adrenals are messed up and my cortisol is the highest she has seen! So I am eating 3xday. Not much weight loss happening. Almost 4 months very strict not even cheese!
@@bmarvincortis1 thank you! I did a test after I had one, and did not increase my blood sugar. I am also losing weight, ( I am on the carnivore diet for about 2 years now), so I’m not going to worry about it. Thank you for your response.
RE-SUBSCRIBED~ YT kicked me off. @ 47:00 in you started talking about fast food and it being more expensive to eat. YES IT IS. I work at night at a famous food delivery service. Ive gained so much weight there and being menopause. So, you know Im a woman, people seem to think my name is a dude. lol. This is my second channel. Im trying to go back to keto and mainly CARNIVORE again. If I have to Ill go to the local grocery and get the cheapest meat or whats on sale, cept raw chichen, and throw it in the oven. $4-5 for a pound of sausage and eat that if Im on a budget that day and didnt bring my steak of sorts. Ill have those peeps make a comment on how can I afford to eat that much meat everyday and then THOSE TURKEYS, will go across the street and spend over $10 bucks on frigging TACO BELL!!! Make IT~Make Sense !?!?!?
I choose to be carnivore and have been, for some time, due to marching, sleeping on the cold ground, and all the other perks the military provides. I never had weight to lose and barely hang on to military low-end weight requirements. However, that is my choice for me. I will never force it on my young children or keep them out of school, which they both love, because I'm afraid they will eat a carrot stick, apple or a cupcake on their classmate's birthdays. They are Pre K and first grade. School teaches children not only education but also social skills, loyalty, helping others, and navigating friendship and problem solving skills. Forcing children to be home schooled because of dietary restrictions is just a bit much. I think this community is edging towards the same obsessive thought patterns as the fat acceptance community....only in the opposite direction. Jmho
First, I am a full grown up 73 year old woman. Last January I started carnivore. Very dedicated for a few months. Started at 166 went down immediately to 144. So happy. BUT, I am a sugar holic. I started adding back sweet things like sweetened tea I would water down. Cookies and bread. I am a sandwich eater from young child. I havent really gained back alot i am now 150. I KNOW I AM SUPPOSED TO CONTROLL MYSELF, BUT HONESTLY CANT GET RID OF SOME SWEETS. Tried eating butter, didnt help. Got rid of all sweets, again but bought back. Can anyone give me concrete ideas that helped them. I know this is for my health etc i know all of this but totally addicted
I have to go very high fat in the beginning to get over the sugar cravings. Like I would eat lot of high quality whipped cream and maybe even add a touch of stevia In the beginning. Also cook up extra rib eye fat and eat that. Very very satiating. Every time I’ve gone off sugar, fat is my best friend. Eventually I can back off once the cravings are gone.
It's 140 grams of protein. That's for her. Your protein needs will be different. Generally, go by 1 gram of protein by 1cm in height. Check out Anthony Phaesse of TheLeanSeaven, or Craig & Maria Emmerich on the subject. 🙂

How old are you?

Best of luck to you.
Day 10~ hows it going?
Day 55 for me, 51 year old male. I'm down 35+ lbs, I'm off my blood pressure meds, I have been on them for about 10 years. I sleep better, I feel better, I sleep better. My wife is kinda starting, I'm not trying to pressure her, just trying to be a good example.
I am 75 and started keto in January I was 99kg. Now I weigh 77kg and decided to do carnivore after watching your channel 😊❤❤
That's amazing. We'll done.
77 years old. carinivore 2 years, down 90lb. so 69 years of age is not to late.
Well done.
I wish my mommy would listen.
Congrats 🎊

Give it to people in need! So many would be grateful for your donation. 🙂
@@lf7065 I already do!
Then ferment the fruit, which would be a lot healthier.
@@skipmcelhenny7325 ferment you say ? In liquid form ok ? 😂😂

I absolutely love your free spirit and I'll be joining locals today.

Love to you and grandpa. ❤❤
70 years old. Carnivore since March 10, down 52lbs.
Amazing.
Great video. Thank you Laura
I got my medley pack a couple days ago, what a great company to deal with!
Thank you
YESSSS LOVE redlight!!! it works!! and i go seafood in a carni alfredo and airfryer buffalo wings when i need a beef break!
do citrates potassium and mag and plenty water... will help flush them out... especially if you have a chance or history of kidney stones!
Hello Laura, thank you so much for sharing this with us. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓
I legit did not see that little tear on the packets until I just bought my 2nd order. Oops. Also I got free packets of the winter medley in the mail yesterday, excited to try some new flavors. I need a chocolate caramel to see if it's any good though.
Regarding protein powder: NOW has a 100% clean Egg White protein powder and the cost is .94 cents/ounce compared to $2.54/ounce for Equip.
Thank you 🤩
Hi Laura Spath, how do make the homemade pork chips??
Can you tell me how I can join the next live? I am a member of the group.
I can't stand very long at one time. My sciatic nerve drives me nuts within a few minutes. Either i have to walk or sit.
I like Equip Protein Powder because I am dairy intolerant.
I am a 51 year old male, I personally am trying to drop a lot of weight. Since im dropping weight my body will be processing a lot of my body fat, im assuming at some point I will need to change my eating and fasting schedule when I drop a lot more weight.
How do you compare undereating which slows metabolism with fasting which is no calories?
I started the carnivore diet 3 weeks ago lost 7 pounds and it looks like I stop loosing the weight even by eating less than before and following strictly the diet. I am starting to feel frustrated. What would be the reason? Thanks!

Hang in there. Some of us have to heal for a while before any weight loss can start.
I struggle to eat enough. I know I need to eat more beef but it is a struggle
what was your weight loss from your strict period over last couple wks!
You’ll never find out…she never shares results because she doesn’t have any.
The flavored LMNTs… contains stevia.. does anyone know if that affects insulin / blood sugar spikes?
Yes it does for me....any sweet taste in to your mouth will spike your insulin because your brain thinks you are eating sugar anyway...its not good😢
@@heidibuys2831 thank you!
It is very individual. Doesn't affect me at all. I suggest testing 30 minutes after to see how your blood is affected.
@@bmarvincortis1 thank you! I did a test after I had one, and did not increase my blood sugar. I am also losing weight, ( I am on the carnivore diet for about 2 years now), so I’m not going to worry about it. Thank you for your response.
I can’t seem to eat or tolerate very much meat or eggs. What do you advise, I have several health issues I’m trying to solve
Maybe try chicken, pork or fish and shellfish
You may be undereating, it’s easy to do on carnivore. Track your calories for a few days and see.
Wish I could talk to your mom. I’m post menopausal and I think I’m under eating.
Thanks Laura from another Laura here in Mesa Az ❤
Iam trying hard to do this, I get hungry I am eating only once a day but by bedtime I am really hungry any ideas on what I can do.
Eat more than once a day, maybe even 3 meals. Make your eating window looser and/or later.
Melanoma survivor here. I am disappointed you use a tanning bed.
Can I just have eggs fish n chicken?
You can but if you find yourself constipated youll need to add fat. Like butter.
I cannot believe you still use tanning beds, they are banned here. 🇦🇺

Eating as a carnivore for 9 months. Anyone else gain weight from eating butter as your go-to when you have cravings during the day?
Steak and Butter Gal gained 25 lbs in the first 6 months or so. (I think I remember correctly). She’s super slim now.

Did i hear you correctly, to eat 140 grams of meat per day? how many pounds is that
Maybe you saw her protein grams? 140grams of meat is only around 5oz. She eats more then 5oz of meat per day.
It's 140 grams of protein. That's for her. Your protein needs will be different. Generally, go by 1 gram of protein by 1cm in height. Check out Anthony Phaesse of TheLeanSeaven, or Craig & Maria Emmerich on the subject. 🙂
@@snowwhite2709in carb manager 5 oz of meat (steak) is about 40 grams
I frankly have a very hard time eating that much and still lose weight. YMMV.
@@fidesetratio3478 You can if you reduce your fat and keep carbs under 20 grams, ideally even less than that.
