I live in Alaska and my 71-year-old wife is a type two diabetic. I have her on a Carnivore diet for two weeks now and her sugar tests have gone from 200 to 80 to 130 per test for the last ten days! She has been injecting 35 units of insulin twice a day and meds twice a day! I have been decreasing her insulin shots down to 30 units per twice a day and plan on decreasing her insulin more and more until she no longer needs it. I want to decrease her pills and insulin slowly so as to not shock her body! I keep her carbs no higher than 50 carbs a day and sugar under 5 grams a day! We are on electrolytes! I am afraid of telling my wife's doctor that she is on the Carnivore diet and I am changing her medication because I do not want to be accused of spouse abuse! Love you Doc!
My doctor is a vegetarian. Wait till she finds out my diet and how I'm no longer a pre-diabetic, morbidly obese and with high blood sugar! Been on the Carnivore diet for 30 days today, lost 23 pounds as of today, lowered my blood pressure from 151/90 to 120/80, and blood sugar from 123 to 100. Loving it!
I’m Japanese from Japan. I can tell you there are several factors to their longevity - 1. Their meal proportions are much smaller like in Europe. 2. Their culture is so much more naturalistic and traditional than the American culture, so they don’t just start eating or surrounding themselves with mass manufactured products (food and non-food). They like natural and simple things mostly. For example, it is a longer and more strict process there to get a new drug or food additive approved than here. 3. Their healthcare system is run by the national government and focuses on preventive care. So the government actually promotes and campaigns for healthy lifestyle, healthy diet AND early detection of health problems at low costs. It’s actually inexpensive to get your annual full-day full-body big hospital testing done to catch any stage 1-2 diseases there. 4. They are not an automobile society. They have public transportation everywhere in cities, meaning they walk from and to train and bus stations all the time. 5. They do their grocery shopping everyday, so they end up eating more fresh foods. 6. They eat so much fish and fermented food everyday. 7. They start healthy diet education early. Their elementary & middle school lunches use local ingredients and each school has a nutritionist who plans seasonal appetizing meals everyday. Yes, those are made with good quality animal/seafood proteins. Maybe I’m missing a couple more. But those are the contributing factors to the Japanese longevity in addition to their genetics.
Japanese also have a very stressful life to live in the big cities... social pressure is crazy there so everthing you said prolly dont apply to city people because i went to Japan and everything is packed in plastic, even 1 banana which is ridiculous... (what about BPA?)
@@boink800 True. But again, they do their portion control and processed food control much better. It is also true that even they have been having an increasing number of heart diseases, diabetes, etc. I think the world wide diet and health trend is on the decline.
At 71, I'm doing Ketovore after eating Keto for a few years. I've had that happen to me, friends saying you're too skinny, you need to stop losing and maintain. I am small boned though for years did not look like it. But I'm not skinny. I've told them, this is the way I eat and if I lose more weight, it was meant to come off.
I just hopped back onto the carnivore train 3 days ago. I AM COMMITTED. I'm so sick and tired of being sick and tired. Thanks Dr. B for your support and insight!
I love that you don’t market to us, it actually puts me off channels as I question their motives when giving advice. Your channel is all about good solid help, care and advice … no ulterior motives.
My cat (19 years old) was prediabetic. I changed her diet to meat only ( there’s a lot of other stuff in regular cat food) and her labs are now within the normal range.
After a year of yo-yoing back and forth between strict carnivore and SAD binging I finally was honest with myself and have committed to carnivore for a solid month. I will honestly never go back. I thought if I cheated once a week or so I could still get the benefits. Boy I was wrong. A month in and literally overnight the fog and bloat have lifted. Energy through the roof. It took consistency but now my eyes are open. Thank you Dr Berry!
I'm a 53 year old male and have been doing keto/carnivor all year. I'm 6'7". My starting weight was 460 lbs . Today i weigh 370 lbs. Thank you for all your hard work putting this way of LIVING out on the internet . I live in Georgia. Thank you.
From Australia, on my 4 th day of Carnivore diet through your podcast that came up on my feed . Been a vegetarian all my life , I’m 63 . Put on 30 kilos in the last 7 yrs and nothing was working , tried lots of ways . Then this year i started to bloat and severe bloating at times . So I start to turn to researching healing by eating meat only . I’m on a journey. Thanks for all your podcasts on this carnivore journey !
Great! Please be careful. It is usually better to change your diet gradually. Make sure you have sufficient electrolytes to help with carbohydrate withdrawal.
I did keto first for about a year and then drifted into carnivore. I still eat onions, avocados and very low carb GF bread (no grainer brand from Melbourne mainly almond flour) so not pure carnivore. I agree with @schpengler change gradually. You won't regret it
Maintain the journey and you’ll never look back. Its worked magic for me over the past 12 months, including eliminating 45 years of skin afflictions. Ballarat.
Hi from Norwich in England! 58 yo female. I’ve been ketovore for 7 weeks and lost 11lbs. Not only that, I’ve no longer got acid reflux, cracked heals, toenail fungus 🤢. I’m more upbeat in mood, skin looks better, no bloating, and boy I used to bloat all of the time. And in Dr Berry’s words “when you go to the toilet, you’ll have a ghost wipe!” 😂 so true!
FYI: If anyone is having the symptoms of diarrhea. I had to eliminate everything except beef, water and ghee...even coffee. I reintroduced stevia in my first cup of coffee as my first thing back. Long story short, my symptoms were from stevia.
My harsh opinion is that all sweeteners, high glycemic or not, are setting us up for failure. Most "keto friendly" sweeteners are just processed foods. If I HAD to have something sweet I would, minimize the best I could, and it would be natural. For instance, maple syrup or molasses are very high in minerals.
@@smoochysmoochy7267 Thanks, Smootchy. I was surprised Greg had two unspoken for steers. For those that don't know Greg, he has a youtube channel called: Green Pastures Farms.

You may have even watched your steer grow when you're watching him, out with his stock on u tube. Your comment helped make my day.. Hi from NZ..
Following your advice 3 yrs ago has kept me diabetes free. It took 4 months-I lost 50 LBS and got off all meds. I did backslide but I am back on full keto once again. Kicking myself for letting myself backslide!
Went today for my 6 month blood work check... i.e. it has been 6 months since I started a carnivore diet (probably close to "dirty carnivore").

From NH, I’m a Metabolic syndrome / insulin resistant poster child. 49yo, known prediabetic for 15 years, not overweight, high BP, cholesterol, fatty liver, follicular nodules on my liver, gout, thyroid cancer, soft tissue sarcoma, undiagnosed nodule found on kidney last year, A1c over 12 and Triglycerides over 800! Post covid 2021, most all of my labs were in the red.. they blasted me with Metformin and even though my A1c came down it trashed my stomach. I’m getting my first labs this morning from starting my carnivore lifestyle 4 months ago. More on ketovore. For the past month. I’ve lost over over 25lbs! Fingers crossed on the labs and upcoming bladder and kidney MRI. Thank you Dr Berry for all you do and your commitment to health and helping people!
Thank you for all that you do to share the message of PHD. I’m more Ketovore but I’ve lost 40 pounds and maintaining. I feel great. No more arthritis pain in my hands and my acid reflux is gone. So much more energy.
We watch a lot of old western movies, amazing how skinny those people were back then. Of course they didn’t have the ultra processed food we have now. That’s how we should look now.
I agree, my wife and I just finished watching The Rockford Files 6 seasons (mid to late 70s) we noticed 3 main differences. 1: there were almost no obese people. 2: the normal sized folks were more slender (less dad bods) 3: automobiles were a heckuva lot cooler than today's cookie cutter models.
Started the carnivore journey in April due to ongoing issues. I was desperately going to doctor after doctor trying to understand why my saliva glands were swelling, rashes, extreme fatigue migraines, depression. I was told it was probably autoimmune but not a thing was showing up in my blood work. I currently have several doctors, family rhumatologist, neurologist, ent, and all they have offered was medicine, new medication every time I would go in. I thought I was gonna die, I felt so bad. Gave carnivore a try and I feel soooo much better, it has been a life savers for me. I finally have my life back. Fast forward to today, my doctor called about my blood work, told me I'm gonna damage my heart and wants to put me on a statin. I was told over the phone with generic information. I was told to loose weight (I'm 5'2 pretty muscular and weigh 130) I was told to exercise (already do 4x a week) and refrain from a lot of carbs ( well duh). Anyways just a bit discouraged today, I have listened to the studies about cholesterol so I am confident that this should be eating plan for life, but it is discouraging that I now have to go against my doctor.
Hang in there! Have you gotten all the tests that dr. Berry recommends like fasting insulin and Hemoglobin A1c and inflammatory markers etc for an annual physical? Maybe your doctors not getting the full picture ? Best of luck to you! Great that you're feeling a lot better
@@triciaobrien8220 Thank you! Yes I did have all those checked and everything else was great. I'm so new to this and I am trying to not get talked into going back to my old way of eating. I don't want to feel like I did then!
Was in hospital 5 months with covid-19 ARDS. 10 chest tubes, bad tachycardia, a fib. Laying in that bed doing nothing, resting HR would sit at 120-130. Compare that to 40 when I as swimming workouts daily. Lost 100lbs muscle the first 5 weeks. Was a rough ride. Contracted c19 August 2021. When i went home in 2022, testosterone was sub 200 estrogen way up. Lots of visceral fat. Started paleo/carnivore November 2022, started swimming again june this year. Lost 30 lbs june and july. Cut out caffeine 2 months ago as it drives HR up. SPO2 still drops with activity but it is finally improving. I sprint in the pool in chunks I can tolerate. After a sprint, SPO2 is about 80, so I have to wait before going again. The paleo carnivore diet is great. Very happy with whole ingredients. Having ducks and chickens helps with breakfast.
Thanks! I’m 72 yrs old, CD x 6 months, down 23 lbs of 45. Does age make a difference in slower weight loss? I did stop and switched to keto after a couple weeks with explosive diarrhea but then back. A1C was 5.8 last fall. I’m going in soon to get rechecked.
To this comment in the live chat about "stones" Q "MONA HALE My doctor said that I have a lot of stones. What should I do to get rid of those? He wasn’t sure if it’s caffeine related. I love coffees" A: my personal answer is this: My husband went carnivore a couple of years back and his stones broke down into sand! He urinated a LOT of sand. Now he is a person that was once hospitalized for surgury because of tons of stones. This time he got them out naturally by eating carnivore. Seriously!
I went from 355 down to 192 in two years on Keto. Everyone said the same thing, I looked sick, or some said I looked like a tweaker! I felt great, but did gain some weight back, but not all of it. Currently fasting 18 hours per day. Doing Keto because my health is far better and feel great! No longer concerned about the naysayers! Thanks Dr.Berry ! God bless!
6 months carnivore & feeling great except for peripheral neuropathy due to bulging lumbar & slight tear recently discovered. 64 yo female. Lost 11 lbs & feel I’m at goal weight- just need to sprint & lift some weights for belly fat but sidelined right now. Watched Dr Berry’s video on PN & now wondering if I can heal all the way. Started physical therapy last week 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I d like to buy the blue PHD tshirt! Love the color dr. Berry I’ve gone from 210lbs to 170lbs A1c was 6.1 dropped to 5.1 cholesterol 210 dropped to 150! I just wanted to thank you 🙏 Ron Cueto
Dr. Berry I saw a while back of a roof leak you guys were having I really hope that when you’re clearing your throat in these videos that I listen to last few weeks it’s not correlated just water damage from that roof leak. I want you to know it to be aware that that is a side effect, I love what you do and I even have some friends in another state trying this way of eating because of your videos and I don’t want to see anything happen to you guys if you’re not aware of water damage and mold. Anyway you can’t always see it as it hides behind walls very easily.
Tn, I am gluten free for 10 yrs , much better from pain, sinus and more energy, but still have some arthritis. I am just not a big meat eater. I like meat every meal but love salads and vegs
Dr. Berry. You have been a huge help to me. I started keto 4 or 5 mos ago, not because I was overweight but to get my glucose numbers down..especially in the a.m. it has worked wonders going much lower carb. I am 70 yrs young, 5'1" and between 115 and 120 lbs. I have been told I've gotten too thin but I feel good. Numbers have been much better. However I want to look better, can try to gain the weight back eating more carbs, but I'm concerned about controlling my sugar. I would appreciate more of your advice. If this isn't the correct forum for asking this question, please advise me.
“Eat less move more” or “not eating enough “ for weight loss stall? Cancun in three weeks would like to loose 6 lbs . Since April A1C 8.7 down to 5.7 thanks to your videos! 152 to 136lbs sedentary job , resistance training once a week .
Great job on getting your A1C down. But you haven't said what you have been eating so there is no context for anyone to give you suggestions. If you are still eating carbs you might try to reduce those more, eg nuts, cheese, medium to high carb veggies (there may have been carb creep). I have a sedentary lifestyle and have lost more than 20% of my starting weight just by cutting the carbs without really trying to lose weight (I can only do light weights and stretching and strengthening exercises due to back and knee issues). I went low carb to remit my diabetes.
@@jobrown8146 🌈 BERBERINE 900-2000 mg split dosage after meals may substitute for metformin*. ALWAYS TAKE w CINNAMON… I take an organic cinnamon capsule of 2000 mg each time. Do this for eight weeks and then reduce to one time daily. If numbers are still high after a few weeks, try another cycle of this treatment. My numbers were upper 200s and low 300s. Now my numbers are 85-130. It’s all natural and so much healthier without side effects like neuropathy which I am reversing… Two pure supplements that I take to REVERSE Neuropathy: Benfotiamine (B1) 300mg x 3 R-alpha lipoic acid 600mg x 3 Do not take any other forms, then those given because other forms are ineffective and interfere with recovery. Benfotiamine is the most bioavailable meaning the most effective. R-alpha, lipoic acid is the “real“ product. S-alpha lipoic acid is synthetic and not effective. If combined, the synthetic cancels the effects of the real stuff. If no letter is given before the phrase “alpha lipoic acid“ it is synthetic and does not work. *For those unaware, metformin causes neuropathy. The difference between berberine and dihydroberberine (DHB) is that DHB is absorbed at five times the rate of regular berberine.
Gosh Dr Berry I’m a happily very female female and want to stay that way, but your illustration for men, of lifting that jug of water made me realise I desperately need more strength.(protein) I am very weak and tired all the time and dizzy. I am about 4months ketovore but do find it hard to eat more than a couple of mouthfuls protein It just won’t go down. Everything else good. No longer need BP medication, etc. Thank you from 🇦🇺
Next week I will be seeing a new doctor for my annual Medicare Wellness examination. Without challenging her I would like to provide her with more information about cholesterol significance and another test you have recommended in the past the C-peptide test. I am 75 and successfully lost weight following your guidance and that of Amy Berger.
@@angies5082 no I haven’t looked. But m a retired RN in the area but I am very healthy, on no meds and I haven’t been to my GP for at least 4 years. My mind has totally flipped during this time. I know if I need one, but right now, I’m at the top of my game!!! But that’s just me. You do what you think is best for your health. But find one that truly listens to you. Best of luck to you!!!
People always tell me I’m “tiny”. It’s ridiculous because I’m female about 5’3” 125 ,lbs, wear a size 6-8 or so. My waist is about 29”. I would say that’s normal. I’m not a size 0 or 2. That would be tiny!
I have a slightly different take on people asking if you are ok after losing a lot of weight. Most people don't lose a lot of weight unless they have severe health issues. If you are used to always seeing "healthy" people gain weight and "unhealthy" people lose weight, you start to assume that weight loss is a sign of health issues. Cancer is the most obvious example.
Agreed. My father thought I had cancer, that was his basis of understanding heavy people losing weight. Be forgiving. You know you are healthy, they don’t.
Iam a 70 yr old woman thinking of going carnivore however I have RA and OA, on Methotrexate, and Synthroid . I longer have a gall bladder. Is this the right choice?

I think it was 20 years ago, I did Adkins & was tracking my calories. According to my app, I was eating 3000 calories or more a day and lost 15 lbs after 2 weeks. I kept scratching my head as it made no sense with the calories in=calories out model of the time. Unfortunately Thanksgiving happened & fell off the wagon & didn''t return until Keto 4 years ago.

From Australia 🇦🇺.I’m going back in to it now. The first thing that came off when I was in meat only diet in July to August was my blood pressure.
Started the carnivore journey in April due to ongoing issues. I was desperately going to doctor after doctor trying to understand why my saliva glands were swelling, rashes, extreme fatigue migraines, depression. I was told it was probably autoimmune but not a thing was showing up in my blood work. I currently have several doctors, family rhumatologist, neurologist, ent, and all they have offered was medicine, new medication every time I would go in. I thought I was gonna die, I felt so bad. Gave carnivore a try and I feel soooo much better, it has been a life savers for me. I finally have my life back. Fast forward to today, my doctor called about my blood work, told me I'm gonna damage my heart and wants to put me on a statin. I was told over the phone with generic information. I was told to loose weight (I'm 5'2 pretty muscular and weigh 130) I was told to exercise (already do 4x a week) and refrain from a lot of carbs ( well duh). Anyways just a bit discouraged today, I have listened to the studies about cholesterol so I am confident that this should be eating plan for life, but it is discouraging that I now have to go against my doctor.
Hang in there! Have you gotten all the tests that dr. Berry recommends like fasting insulin and Hemoglobin A1c and inflammatory markers etc for an annual physical? Maybe your doctors not getting the full picture ? Best of luck to you! Great that you're feeling a lot better

Thank you! Yes I did have all those checked and everything else was great. I'm so new to this and I am trying to not get talked into going back to my old way of eating. I don't want to feel like I did then!
Started Carnivore in August, and September I lost 29lbs. Love this platform of learning PHD! Thank you all so much!
You share your knowledge very well.
Was in hospital 5 months with covid-19 ARDS. 10 chest tubes, bad tachycardia, a fib. Laying in that bed doing nothing, resting HR would sit at 120-130. Compare that to 40 when I as swimming workouts daily. Lost 100lbs muscle the first 5 weeks. Was a rough ride. Contracted c19 August 2021. When i went home in 2022, testosterone was sub 200 estrogen way up. Lots of visceral fat. Started paleo/carnivore November 2022, started swimming again june this year. Lost 30 lbs june and july. Cut out caffeine 2 months ago as it drives HR up. SPO2 still drops with activity but it is finally improving. I sprint in the pool in chunks I can tolerate. After a sprint, SPO2 is about 80, so I have to wait before going again. The paleo carnivore diet is great. Very happy with whole ingredients. Having ducks and chickens helps with breakfast.
Thanks! I’m 72 yrs old, CD x 6 months, down 23 lbs of 45. Does age make a difference in slower weight loss? I did stop and switched to keto after a couple weeks with explosive diarrhea but then back. A1C was 5.8 last fall. I’m going in soon to get rechecked.
Thank you! Watched after the live from Okinawa 🌺 (and yes, people eat a lot of meat here).
To this comment in the live chat about "stones"
Q "MONA HALE My doctor said that I have a lot of stones. What should I do to get rid of those? He wasn’t sure if it’s caffeine related. I love coffees"
A: my personal answer is this: My husband went carnivore a couple of years back and his stones broke down into sand! He urinated a LOT of sand. Now he is a person that was once hospitalized for surgury because of tons of stones. This time he got them out naturally by eating carnivore. Seriously!
That is phenomenal! So glad for you all!
I went from 355 down to 192 in two years on Keto. Everyone said the same thing, I looked sick, or some said I looked like a tweaker! I felt great, but did gain some weight back, but not all of it. Currently fasting 18 hours per day. Doing Keto because my health is far better and feel great! No longer concerned about the naysayers! Thanks Dr.Berry ! God bless!
6 months carnivore & feeling great except for peripheral neuropathy due to bulging lumbar & slight tear recently discovered. 64 yo female. Lost 11 lbs & feel I’m at goal weight- just need to sprint & lift some weights for belly fat but sidelined right now. Watched Dr Berry’s video on PN & now wondering if I can heal all the way. Started physical therapy last week 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hello Dr B from Cambodia n U have saved my life
I worked in China for a while. The meals had lots of different meats and vegetables and very little rice.
The amount of rice for bought meals in other countries is possibly more because it is cheap and therefore increases the profits.
My daughter lived and worked in china for two years. Rice was there to soak up excess oils.😂. Most people ate very little, she said.
Thank you Doctor,So Much Gods Blessings 🔥 Georgia,USA 🇺🇸
Dr. Berry I saw a while back of a roof leak you guys were having I really hope that when you’re clearing your throat in these videos that I listen to last few weeks it’s not correlated just water damage from that roof leak. I want you to know it to be aware that that is a side effect, I love what you do and I even have some friends in another state trying this way of eating because of your videos and I don’t want to see anything happen to you guys if you’re not aware of water damage and mold. Anyway you can’t always see it as it hides behind walls very easily.
Cheers Dr. Berry from U.K.
Love all this information!
Tn, I am gluten free for 10 yrs , much better from pain, sinus and more energy, but still have some arthritis. I am just not a big meat eater. I like meat every meal but love salads and vegs
Dr. Berry. You have been a huge help to me. I started keto 4 or 5 mos ago, not because I was overweight but to get my glucose numbers down..especially in the a.m. it has worked wonders going much lower carb. I am 70 yrs young, 5'1" and between 115 and 120 lbs. I have been told I've gotten too thin but I feel good. Numbers have been much better. However I want to look better, can try to gain the weight back eating more carbs, but I'm concerned about controlling my sugar. I would appreciate more of your advice. If this isn't the correct forum for asking this question, please advise me.

“Eat less move more” or “not eating enough “ for weight loss stall? Cancun in three weeks would like to loose 6 lbs . Since April A1C 8.7 down to 5.7 thanks to your videos! 152 to 136lbs sedentary job , resistance training once a week .
Great job on getting your A1C down. But you haven't said what you have been eating so there is no context for anyone to give you suggestions. If you are still eating carbs you might try to reduce those more, eg nuts, cheese, medium to high carb veggies (there may have been carb creep). I have a sedentary lifestyle and have lost more than 20% of my starting weight just by cutting the carbs without really trying to lose weight (I can only do light weights and stretching and strengthening exercises due to back and knee issues). I went low carb to remit my diabetes.
@@jobrown8146 🌈 BERBERINE 900-2000 mg split dosage after meals may substitute for metformin*. ALWAYS TAKE w CINNAMON… I take an organic cinnamon capsule of 2000 mg each time. Do this for eight weeks and then reduce to one time daily.
If numbers are still high after a few weeks, try another cycle of this treatment. My numbers were upper 200s and low 300s. Now my numbers are 85-130. It’s all natural and so much healthier without side effects like neuropathy which I am reversing…
Two pure supplements that I take to REVERSE Neuropathy:
Benfotiamine (B1) 300mg x 3
R-alpha lipoic acid 600mg x 3
Do not take any other forms, then those given because other forms are ineffective and interfere with recovery.
Benfotiamine is the most bioavailable meaning the most effective. R-alpha, lipoic acid is the “real“ product. S-alpha lipoic acid is synthetic and not effective. If combined, the synthetic cancels the effects of the real stuff. If no letter is given before the phrase “alpha lipoic acid“ it is synthetic and does not work.
*For those unaware, metformin causes neuropathy.
The difference between berberine and dihydroberberine (DHB) is that DHB is absorbed at five times the rate of regular berberine.
Will scrambled eggs and boiled eggs work as well as fried.
Thank you for sharing with us.

Gosh Dr Berry I’m a happily very female female and want to stay that way, but your illustration for men, of lifting that jug of water made me realise I desperately need more strength.(protein)
I am very weak and tired all the time and dizzy. I am about 4months ketovore but do find it hard to eat more than a couple of mouthfuls protein It just won’t go down.
Everything else good. No longer need BP medication, etc.
Thank you from 🇦🇺

Next week I will be seeing a new doctor for my annual Medicare Wellness examination. Without challenging her I would like to provide her with more information about cholesterol significance and another test you have recommended in the past the C-peptide test. I am 75 and successfully lost weight following your guidance and that of Amy Berger.

Hi from The Villages… have you found a local GP that understands the carnivore lifestyle and bloodwork results?
@@angies5082 no I haven’t looked. But m a retired RN in the area but I am very healthy, on no meds and I haven’t been to my GP for at least 4 years. My mind has totally flipped during this time. I know if I need one, but right now, I’m at the top of my game!!! But that’s just me. You do what you think is best for your health. But find one that truly listens to you. Best of luck to you!!!

Thanks Doc!
People always tell me I’m “tiny”. It’s ridiculous because I’m female about 5’3” 125 ,lbs, wear a size 6-8 or so. My waist is about 29”. I would say that’s normal. I’m not a size 0 or 2. That would be tiny!

I have a slightly different take on people asking if you are ok after losing a lot of weight. Most people don't lose a lot of weight unless they have severe health issues. If you are used to always seeing "healthy" people gain weight and "unhealthy" people lose weight, you start to assume that weight loss is a sign of health issues. Cancer is the most obvious example.
Agreed. My father thought I had cancer, that was his basis of understanding heavy people losing weight. Be forgiving. You know you are healthy, they don’t.

I did the coffee experiment and found that I don’t need it. I don’t even like coffee without HWC and sweeter, so it was easy to give it up

The last time I had to go to ER. They said my blood suger was 15. They couldn't explain why I was still about to walk,talk and answer their questions and not in a commoma.
I think it was 20 years ago, I did Adkins & was tracking my calories. According to my app, I was eating 3000 calories or more a day and lost 15 lbs after 2 weeks. I kept scratching my head as it made no sense with the calories in=calories out model of the time. Unfortunately Thanksgiving happened & fell off the wagon & didn''t return until Keto 4 years ago.
