I'm just over a year on carnivore. I used to sleep 8 hours and wake up tired. Since carnivore my sleep has gotten less and now I sleep 5-6 hours every night. The difference is I wake up refreshed and don't crash mid afternoon. Carnivore is amazing.
That’s exactly what I’m noticing… I’m trying to sleep like I normally do, but I’m getting like 40% less sleep and feeling much better than I ever did getting a full 8 hrs! It’s crazy
Great job. Like the music at the weigh in. I find that I'm not sleeping my usual 9 hours. Getting by on 7-8. I attribute it to the body working less to assimilate my food. Pretty much common knowledge that enormous amounts of food require extra sleep - see at the the gym with bodybuilders in a bulking cycle where they are force feeding calories every 3-4 hours. They either sleep a lot or they are very tired. Congrats, glad the diet is working great for you.
Thank you! That could be very true! I'm wired at night until I force myself to lay down.. then I'm in a deeeep sleep. I'm even remembering my dreams, which I don't think I have in like a decade or more!
WTG. Awesome!. Sounds about right on the weight loss. Thats about what mines been also... Ive also been waking up alot it seems lately.. so the other night i fell asleep with my headphones on.. and it helped me.. music usually does for me.. cause if its dead quiet, my brain searches for something to do!! 😉 music is my relaxer!!! :)
Thank you!! The only complaint I have with the KC one is the time it takes to get in.. but other than that, they're pretty good. I was impressed that they called me to see if I wanted to come in 2 weeks early to my appointment!
Congrats on the weight loss! Sorry if you've mentioned it before...what's the sweet pups name? I love how he/she goes everywhere with you. And thank you for your service!
I was looking forward to seeing your weight loss that's great!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 I laughed at the professional sitter comment. I can relate with my desk job. I can get up and move much more freely than you can though. Thank you for your service! What branch of the military were you in? We have a lot of ex Army in our family. My brother is still active. He's in the Space Force, stationed in Denver. Your backyard cookouts are always relaxing to see. Harlan obviously finds them relaxing too 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you. I was in the Air Force. I was in meteorology. That would be pretty neat to me in the Space Force.. plus Colorado is gorgeous. Yeah, Harlan love's it outside. He just lays in the grass and sniffs at things all day. lol
I actually just started the carnivore diet back in January and I noticed that my sleep was terrible too. From what I’ve read, it could be from elevated levels of cortisol which is normal when first switching to this diet. It did end up going away but it took a few weeks. If you want to try to help it though, I’d start by eating fattier cuts of meat if possible. Id definitely try to take magnesium before bed if you’re feeling like you’re not going to be able to sleep and it would probably be a good idea to make sure that you’re supplementing your electrolytes too. Also I know you said that you are a truck driver so you might be limited with this but the last thing that I’d recommend is getting a quick walk In if possible. I try to do a mile and a half 5 out of 7 days during the week and it usually takes about 30 minutes. These are just the things that I found to help me but I hope this might be able to help you as well🙌
thank you! That’s great advice! I recently read about the magnesium as well. I might have to stop and grab some.. going to give it another week or so because I don’t feel tired during the day, yet. Lol The electrolytes and walking suggestion would probably help as well!
Nice drop! That steak made my mouth water. I'm going to have a t-bone in a day or two. I caught some on sale at Save-a-Lot a couple of weeks ago for $3.99!. Bought several. Where do you live? It looks beautiful there. I'm in rural eastern KY.
that's alot of weight loss. like it's so much that i think it might be a bit too much for such a short period of time but i guess it could be that you are losing water weight also so that could mean that it is actually okay.
That was the juice from the steak in that video. I don't use steak sauce, but it just depends on how strict you want to be. I’m pretty strict, but coffee isn’t technically carnivore… And I have that every morning 🤷🏻♂️

Thanks for helping humanity waking up.
We still have a long way to go.. but I think it’s happening slowly but surely!!

Thank you! Same here… I’ve actually been putting on "adult bedtime stories" the last couple of nights and it seems to knock me out pretty quick. Lol
Great job on the weight loss brother. I remember those days of going to the VA, talk about frustration.
Thank you!! The only complaint I have with the KC one is the time it takes to get in.. but other than that, they're pretty good. I was impressed that they called me to see if I wanted to come in 2 weeks early to my appointment!

Thanks!! At $3.99.. I would've loaded up too! Lol Im about an hour east of Kansas City MO. KY is gorgeous!
Great results so far.
Thank you!
im on about day 70, i do notice im loosing my patience with people, my cortisol levels must be up. but mind over matter stay calm.
I don't think I've ever had patience with people. 😬 I'm doomed!! Lol
that's alot of weight loss. like it's so much that i think it might be a bit too much for such a short period of time but i guess it could be that you are losing water weight also so that could mean that it is actually okay.
Yeah, in my "Top 3 things" video I mention that A LOT of water weight has been coming out because of the lack of carbs
@@Nomad_Brad that makes sense. 🙂
So you can have steak sauce on carnivore ? I'm getting me a bottle.
That was the juice from the steak in that video. I don't use steak sauce, but it just depends on how strict you want to be. I’m pretty strict, but coffee isn’t technically carnivore… And I have that every morning 🤷🏻♂️
