That's great advice it's now day 13 of me goin fully carnivore I went full lion diet and have lost 15.4lbs so far and my sleep has gone from 3hours to 5hours a night
@craigfaulkner Very encouraging. I need to lose a lot, & my sleep is maybe 6-8 hrs a day - but only in 1-2 hr naps. So i'm researching the carnivore.Thx!
I have autoimmune disease so the carnivore way is the best. I’ve heard people say that they can’t afford to eat so much meat but buying boxed , packaged foods is a massive waste of money. Buy meat in bulk and you can save a ton of money over time. The first thing I stopped was sugar and that alone made me feel like I had a new lease on life. New sub and I enjoy watching you both 🥓🥩🍳
I think its pretty important to note that snacks are not supposed to be part of the carnivore diet. I learned that when you are hungry you eat a full meal...to the point.of comfortably full..then you dont eat again until you are actually hungry.. which for me was a long time.. my appetite went way down when i started getting the right fuel. Snacks should be avoided as you stillneed to break bad habits and learn to listen to your real hunger cues..not habits of snacking
I agree that once you’ve transitioned into ketosis and are adapted to the carnivore diet that snacks shouldn’t be a part anymore. However, from my personal experience, during the transition part and weaning from old habits it helped to use snacks especially if I didn’t have the time to make an entire meal. But definitely agree with you, the goal is to only eat solid meals. 👍 We could have went in my depth about that in the video. Thanks for your comment.
@@carnivorecouple Not arguing..just sharing my experience. I went full bore from the get go. I wanted to lose 20 pounds ..from 155 to 135..Maybe a bit more..and more importantly lose the inflammation in my joints from my active lifestyle. By going hard from the off..I experienced immediate results ..within 2 days I could feel my tummy flatter and my joints much soothed. I am sharing this as an alternative to the slowly slowly softly softly approach. If you want to see the big change..just go.for it. My diet was not soo awful before..just too much carbs apparently. I never got keto flu.. I did need electrolytes..made my own
Steakandbuttergal snacks, and she also said you should transition and not go full carnivore to start because of digestion. I think everyone should do what they can how they can and not criticize other people for how they do it.
@@AliciaGilbert180 no one did criticize ... I think hearing the option to go full blast and not be afraid of the transition is valuable. Some people have lots of weight to lose and lots of health problems and bad relationship with food. Not all.of us are in that category. So we can skip the steps of those who need to break their bad habits and patterns... simple concept.. if you are able to handle the advanced class..don't think it's mandatory to go through all the beginner classes..
Thanks for sharing your journey, I started this last year and lost 75 pounds as well. I hit a stall but started over from scratch and I'm staring to come down again, so it does work.
So I’ve been looking into this diet, I came across this video and I still don’t see anyone eating any chicken…Is that something people don’t eat because of the low fat content? I also have over 100lb of moose meat in freezer, is that something I should consider eating? I hear nothing but good things about this diet, but my god does it sound unhealthy.
Redmond sea salt from Utah is best their table salt and kosher salt is freakin amazing, I used to have Redmond kosher salt on construction sites and work truck, just one granule on the tongue
Went to Costco just this week and besides getting a multi-pack of ribeyes or NY Strip it's not easy finding meat. I have a list of different steaks that I've made watching carnivore vids on YT, but rarely find them at Costco or Walmart. :(
Its unfortunate people have to do so much to do somethimg they should do. I did keto for a year and the second i started doing all this extra recipe stuff is when i failed it
Not sure what you mean. There is really nothing "extra" to do. The electrolytes suggestion is the only important one, (and that is only really necessary when you first start out), because your body will be getting rid of all the excess water it is holding in the tissues. The water leaving will take some minerals with it, but everyone is affected differently, if at all. If you can afford to buy grass fed/ grass finished beef, and eggs from pastured chickens, you will most likely be getting the minerals you need (as opposed to eating grain-fed beef and chicken, along with their eggs, etc.) After your tissues get rid of that excess water they are holding, then that problem will diminish. To put it in perspective, even if you were just eating a "regular" diet of random foods, you'd have seasonings, gravies, salad dressings, sauces, snacks and munchies, desserts, etc., and ALL of those things will have lots of sodium and some other minerals if you are lucky, anyway.
I'm glad you mentioned that mindset because I was on a January Challenge and then it was extended as a spiritual fast and now that's all done on Saturday but I've decided to continue through Febuary. Would I like to be on this for life, yes but that seems like an overwhelming goal so making smaller obtainable goals . I have gotten to the place where house feels better than any food tastes though . Just that some days are harder than others but those days are less often now
Im going to try a 30-day carnivore diet. My biggest obstacle is im going to give up alcohol during this 30 adventure. I appreciate your videos and wish you luck in your future.
Thank you. You got this. Giving up sugar and carbs is tough, but it’s even more difficult to give up alcohol as well especially if you drink often. Just take it one day at a time. You CAN do this! Stay strong 💪
Thanks for this awesome help. Just one thing id like to mention is your pink Himalayan salt. Recently it has come to light that the chinese are adding the pink and not adding it to the ingredient list. Stick with your redmomds
I can't do this carnivore diet, I have high cholesterol and BP. Too much saturated fat in carnivore. But I am doing low carb with intermittent fasting the past month. This carnivore is interesting but not doable for a lot of us
@@cdf8821 Your life will change with Our Salt. When your at the store make sure you get some meat. Put Utahs salt on your meat and you will fall in love! Its really the best salt out there.
your local butchers are even better, but dont by quarters , wholes or halves buy what you like, check out chuck eyes, and a whole list of others along with burger.
Agreed. In the beginning while you’re fighting those cravings, a little bit of snacking may be necessary. You will want to get away from snacking quickly though.
That would be considered ketovore which is meat based meals with some low carb veg. Caitlynn is mainly ketovore as well. I’m glad you found something that works for you!
Actually sucralose. These are just for transitioning to a carnivore diet. We recommend that you cut them out once your cravings are gone and you have adapted to this way of eating.
Honestly, try to find a way to cook it that’s palatable for you- meatballs, wings, meatloaf. If you really can’t tolerate meat at all, maybe carnivore isn’t for you, but a keto type diet may allow you to have similar results. Hope that helps.
I might need to go carnivore only because I'm not losing weight any other way. But right now i haven't gotten over my sweet tooth problem and still need low carb treats. (Mostly sugar free hot chocolate.)
If youre doing weightloss and not for health reasons you can do ketovore instead. I eat some keto butter bomb cookie dough that i made from an online recipe. Granted, not very often, but it handles the sweet tooth.
Congrats!🎉 thanks for the tips. I’m switching into it to help chronic illness. Only on day 2. I’m actually underweight so I’m curious how this will play out for me.
I love you guys I hope you see this. I’ll jump back on it unfortunately I quit after 6 days bc I got scared of the diarrhea 😅 you guys have great tips and explain very simply and keep it to the point!🙏🏽 I hope the best for you and your whole family ,happy ,healthy and thriving !!! Much love from me!! ✌🏽
If you don't stick it out ..the toilet issues don't go away. That wasn't a big problem for me..possibly because I was on a fairly good diet already.. but it's a part of the transformation. You gotta get through it..
Its been a worry for me every time I try to start too. Im constantly on the road or working remote locations. Peeing in a bush or the side of the road in a pinch is 1 thing, but an overwhelming emergency diarrhea feeling X amount of times per day with no facilities is nightmare fuel.
@@rawx485 Then maybe you would be one who benefits from starting with keto and then decreasing the non carnivore foods and easing that transition. Keto flu can still hit but not as much ..and the digestive issues should be much less intrusive. For people who are near a working toilet all day.this shouldn't be an issue.. it's not soo horrible..
Thank you for the kind comment. I would recommend pushing through the diarrhea. Your gut is changing and adjusting to the new way of eating. It’s amazing on the other side. Be persistent. Stay strong 💪
@@carnivorecouple thank you! 🙏🏽 I have another question, is it okay to take supplements like vitamins while on carnivore ? And if so which ones would you recommend to take? Or if I even need to take any? Please lmk thank you!
No you don’t. Just eat until you’re full. As long as you’re eating mostly beef, butter, bacon and eggs. You can also have chicken, pork and seafood. No sugar or carbs.
Exactly. Drinking butter is fine, eating a tomato isn’t. One tomato, or even an apple, and that must be why you’re struggling to lose weight. Can’t at all be that eating more calories than your body needs would prevent fat loss.
My husband and I started carnivore April 1st. We are doing it to improve fertility. We have committed to do it until we deliver a healthy baby ❤.
It definitely works for fertility. We’re pregnant with twins lol
Why stop at that point
@@фанатКуплинова-ь1е we probably won't, we actually love it so far.
First month in. Down 21 pounds. 300 to 279!

Thanks for the sub. Carnivore is life! And yes, it can actually be cheaper than a standard American diet. It also makes shopping easier and quicker.
I’ve binged a lot of carnivore diet videos. This is the best yet!
Thank you. We appreciate it!
you have no idea how happy i am that ive found you guys!
Awesome! We hope to encourage you along your health journey

Yes it does.
This is a great into video!! Already sent it to friends that I got started on it.
Awesome! Thank you!
Good job on the editing. ❤👍🏻Great content.
Thank you so much 😁
Nothing beats Costco when buying in bulk

Have you all considered chicken with beef for a meal?

Also oily fish is a good thing to add also. Think like a bear, eat that salmon.
You are correct.
Thanks to you both, I like your recipes & your 24 hour mindset has helped me too ❤
Wonderful!

💯 mindset is the most important thing when it comes to a healthy lifestyle. It’s all a mental battle whether you eat healthy and exercise.
like always you guys motivated us 💪😀👍… just started my second week workout 🏋️♀️ still not fully carnivore but am making some changes .
Keep continuing to better yourself. You got this!
Im going to try a 30-day carnivore diet. My biggest obstacle is im going to give up alcohol during this 30 adventure. I appreciate your videos and wish you luck in your future.

A glass of wine each night was hard for me to give up. Down 12 lbs so far though, so it's worth it.
Get off the cast iron and onto steel pans - they do a much better job searing and cooking meat. Much more even cooking.
Should really try the South Africa Biltong and droewors,much better than jerky
I’m starting next week, any and all tips would be appreciated
Thanks for this awesome help. Just one thing id like to mention is your pink Himalayan salt. Recently it has come to light that the chinese are adding the pink and not adding it to the ingredient list. Stick with your redmomds

IM IN SO CALIF. COSTCO WAS SOOO MUCH MORE PER LB FOR MEATS YET SO MANY SAY ITS SO MUCH CHEAPER...NOT HERE
❤ awesome video
Thanks 🤗
Im on Day 1 of carvinore. Did strict Keto in 2017 and lost 75 pounds. Been "dirty keto" since 2021, currently 235 pounds, 180 pounds is my goal.
Let’s go! You got this!
G. Hughes is my favorite

The carnivore diet lowers blood pressure and fixes so many gut, insulin and autoimmune issues

I wish we had a Costco.
I'm about to start carnivore this weekend, and I am curious with losing so much weight if you had any loose skin issues?
I don’t have a ton of loose skin yet. I will see how it is once I hit my weight and body fat % goals. We will make a video about it.
How much have you lost with Ketovore? I'm very interested in starting that.
60 pounds. I just haven’t been as consistent as Pat.
your local butchers are even better, but dont by quarters , wholes or halves buy what you like, check out chuck eyes, and a whole list of others along with burger.
Great tip
No snacking! Just do 1 or 2 meals per day and nothing in between..
Agreed. In the beginning while you’re fighting those cravings, a little bit of snacking may be necessary. You will want to get away from snacking quickly though.
I eat primarily meat and broccoli. Is that considered carnivore?
#RFMvids
That would be considered ketovore which is meat based meals with some low carb veg. Caitlynn is mainly ketovore as well. I’m glad you found something that works for you!
I like how you talk about only doing certain foods in the transition period then weaning off them.
Thanks
I like Celtic salt
And of course you say Redmond 😂 I didn’t make it that far and boom you said it
😂
1:38 but wait aren’t these just full of aspartame?
Actually sucralose. These are just for transitioning to a carnivore diet. We recommend that you cut them out once your cravings are gone and you have adapted to this way of eating.
And why she doesn’t do carnivore diet?
She was ketovore and lost 60 pounds. She had to put her journey on hold due to pregnancy. She is focusing on growing babies for now.
What do you do when you absolutely hate all meat?
Honestly, try to find a way to cook it that’s palatable for you- meatballs, wings, meatloaf. If you really can’t tolerate meat at all, maybe carnivore isn’t for you, but a keto type diet may allow you to have similar results. Hope that helps.
Do you guys eat chicken ever?
Yes quite often actually.
Does the meat have to be grass fed? Or any meat is ok?
It does not have to be grass fed. Buy the best meat that you can afford.
I might need to go carnivore only because I'm not losing weight any other way. But right now i haven't gotten over my sweet tooth problem and still need low carb treats. (Mostly sugar free hot chocolate.)
The cravings are tough at first. Carnivore is the only thing that has helped me get past the sugar and carb cravings.
If youre doing weightloss and not for health reasons you can do ketovore instead. I eat some keto butter bomb cookie dough that i made from an online recipe. Granted, not very often, but it handles the sweet tooth.
So it works 50/50 or what I see?
People don’t start a weight loss journey having the same amount of weight to lose and then lose it equally at the same rate…
Love your channel! ❤
Thank you
why no chicken?
I’m keeping it pretty strict right now. I eat chicken, pork and seafood sometimes.
Thank you ❤

No processed food.
