Anytime I stray even a little bit I avalanche...
A little stress...makes me want to binge. Down over 80 pounds but still not healed mentally about eating.
We got this!!! ❤️
In this together! Shelley W.
I failed myself. I caved today but tomorrow is a new day. I'm up 10 lbs and I plan on starting over tomorrow.
Thanks for sharing.❤
Same 🫠
Same here
Me too! I can't do a little I plum snowball when going off plan!
As a former binge eater who also ate for comfort, the only success I have found was being strict carnivore. First I was keto but still binged, just on keto foods, then I started to slowly go full carnivore and noticed the bingeing decreased. So I tried full carnivore and have not binged in 6 months! It is so liberating!
Once I started eating meat again, I stopped binging so much. Weird!
Same here.
So have I
It gets better and better
Eating junk food and feeling so bad after is a good reminder of why I shouldn't eat that in the first place. I forgot my why. Looking at you and how beautiful and young you are I forget how much of a struggle it is for everyone. I'm 73 and I think how much easier it must be for someone as young as you...but it's a struggle, no matter what, for everyone. Thank you for putting it all in perspective.
Thankyou so much for your honesty. In the UK after 30 years living with Hashimoto's nobody has ever given me advice about the illness. Just tested once a year and medication adjusted if necessary. No conversation or recognition of the effects it has on mental and physical health. Everything I've learned I've learned by research and listening to people like you being honest and open about its effects. Thankyou again.
It gets easier, the longer you do this way of eating and the more you focus on ruminant meat.
Absolutely, 73 here too. After menopause you can look at food and gain, so much harder to lose. I am not a binger, I can keep chips in my pantry for a month, eating just a couple a day or so, but its still getting inside whether all at once or little by little. DO NOT BUY! That's the secret, if it's not there you won't eat it.
Me too. It’s been since Easter for me. Struggling so bad.
Amen. What Kathy said!!
It is refreshing to know that someone as tiny as you struggles as much with the junk food pull as us chubbies do. Thank you for your transparency.
Chubbies 😂😂. I’m a chubby. I had lost 80lb. Since Easter having an awful relapse I just can’t stop. It’s like a drug. Piled back on weight 🥲🥲🥲
@@helenalovelock1030 Get back on the horse after falling off, slowly... You have it in you, already lost 80lbs, you can do it...
@@sdeejo1sj aww Thankyou that’s sweet. It’s been 4 months now off eating the junk feel awful. I keep putting it off and can’t get through a day without the sugar stuff. I’m not as overweight as I was but it piling on again.
Sooo relatable! Even after 4 yrs carnivore, food addiction is never far behind me when triggered. Desire to stay well gives me incentive to stay the course.
Have you ever gone on Lion? I've heard it goes a long way to disconnecting the food addiction mechanism...
@@authorgirlpetparent Do you mean Lion's Mane mushroom?
No. The Lion Diet is steak, water and salt only!
After 6 months carnivore I'm learning that messing up and getting too "flexible" doesn't mean that I have to start all over or that I messed up. It just means that I need to refocus and remind myself WHY I'm making the short-term sacrifices for my long-term vitality. You've really helped me learn this.
It is really easy to get "too flexible".
@@bertdog7639 Too true! Progress over perfection :)
Short-term sacrifices for my long-term vitality. I love that I am going to write that down.❤❣
Short term sacrifices ? This is more a way of life for most people...
@@gmarounf7472 By short-term sacrifices I mean relinquishing the gratification of enjoying shit food/alcohol/etc. in the short-term...e.g., not having cake at the birthday party would be a short-term sacrifice for my long-term wellness!
I have been dealing with this all my life, since i was about 13...I just turned 60. I started watching you and Dr. Berry in 2018 and have lost over 100ibs.....but every now and again i binge eat all the wrong food. I've been keto/carnivore for the last 5 years. I also have hypothyroidism. You are an inspiration to many and definitely to me. I pray that July goes well for you. Thank you for all you and Dr. Berry do ....God Bless Patricia
Same I'm 65yrs old been doing this 3yrs
Iv eaten both carnivore
Keto & few slip ups
If I don't hv suger or carbhydrates
I'm fine
Iv lost 15kilos
I'm not racing doing this to look great to be healthy & I'm finally on my own so much easier💖
Neisha, oh my goodness!!! Those words, "Comfort foods do not comfort my body; they throw it into chaos"! That statement got me! I'd never heard it put like that before, and really hit my soul. I've really been struggling with my weight and health the last few years. I lost years ago but it started creeping back after several devastating, life changing events within a 12month period. I completely lost focus and started to gain it back. I battle my mind daily to make good decisions. I so appreciate you keeping it real; it makes me feel like I am not alone. I will take this video as a July challenge. Time for me to refocus and take my life back!
I’ve realized that the splurging is just not worth it. I regret it physically and mentally every time. I feel like I’ve let myself down. So I follow the philosophy of “One Day at a Time” - one hour at a time, if necessary. Feeling good by keeping keto is worth it!
Hang in there, sister! 🙏🏻🥩💪
I feel you Neisha. Mine is candy. I don’t have cheats anymore, I don’t drink alcohol.
I was addicted to sugar. As soon as I have cheats, it escalates.
I eat beef, lamb, eggs, cheese, salmon, sardines in oil, prawns, cucumber, Kalamata olives, macadamias…and a tiny amount of purple onion (Greek salad, no tomatoes/lettuce).
For snacks I eat Biltong and Pork Crackle.
I drink black coffee, Tulsi tea with lemon, and Italian mineral water. Sometimes have ham and prosciutto. That’s it…I don’t eat anything else.
I fast like you did, pretty much 16:8. I change my fasts around because I’m nearly 52 so keep an eye on my hormones and check blood sugars intermittently. I’m healthy and happy.
The tools I use are my loves. I increase time invested in what I love if I’m tempted by sugar. I really switch on my creativity and that releases more happy hormones and the desire goes away. And the bonus is I usually end up creating something that makes me better at my day job and increases fulfilment. Win win!
Your hair looks amazing!!!!! 💕
Garlic and onion are high in the FODMAP, fructan. Fructans are a type of oligosaccharide (i.e., the O in the FODMAP acronym). Like other FODMAPs, fructans are poorly absorbed in the small intestine and rapidly fermented by bacteria in the large intestine leading to symptoms in some people with IBS
@@chasych7575 yep, hence the very minuscule amount of onion. I was low FODMAP for three years. 😊
I have essentially put myself into elimination by going ketovore, because of the extensive personal analysis I have undertaken over the last 15 years (so not a newbie by any stretch).
I have strategically chosen my dietary intake otherwise I dump oxalate out of my eyes specifically. I can actually feel and touch the crystals. It is extremely irritating, uncomfortable to the point I can’t open my eyes in the morning. And don’t get me started on the swelling…I look like I’ve been in the ring boxing! 😂
@@HeatherNBellyou need to see a doctor. The swelling may be a sign of a severe condition!
@@BestLifeMD thanks…what’s my blood type please? Given you’ve assumed my medical position for me, I thought you’d have the intricacies of my medical history since you’ve assumed I haven’t already seen my doctor. 🤔
Do The Lion Diet
I once worked for a doctor who said “you never really quit, the addiction will always be there”. I truly believe that. Hang in there girl! You are worth so much more than a bag of Doritos and dip.
Only weak people are addicted. That is about 90% of society today.
Why is everything called an addiction , it's just plain old sin in most case , I'm not including medical conditions either. My son ordered some Redmans salt bit says we can't afford KETO, I want to go carnivore.
@barkpeeler2000 thank you for replying. I’m just too old and tired to reply to folks who don’t care to educate themselves.
@@virginiahobby3726 You sound like the kind who would go carnivore. Hardwired for mental illness I say.
@@judysilva315 Maybe the old and tired are caused by addiction.
I so enjoyed this.... I feel you on everything you just mentioned....the sleep, eating, autoimmune issue, binging and pain all over. Let's do this dear as clean as possible ❤
Thanks Neisha for talking about your temptations (I also LOVE tortilla chips and salsa) and clarifying the need to stay healthy! I have been feeling weak in my diet and sharing your goals is very encouraging! Thanks !❤
Yes! What they ^^ said!
@@user-dn2eg3pw2t have you had the "siete" brand tortilla chips? They are not low carb but they are really clean (paleo approved) maybe when you're wanting chips really bad at least you'd be eating a clean version that is still delicious.
Ok, 72 been overweight my whole life since my 20's. Started with Keto, then Ketovore and for the last almost 2 years Carnivore. I have Hashi's diagnosed by Dr Cywes and we are treating it with only nutrition. It takes time! The past couple of days my daughter/ husband and 2 kids have been here and let me tell you, the anxiety form the parents was off the charts! They have too much going on and I tried to keep things calm as possible. They tend to spread themselves too thin at times and I am their go to to release the tension (they just needed to vent and get it off their chests). I am a good non judgemental gal and a good listener. Yesterday it was starting to get to me and I felt my anxiety level go up. I landed up eating much more than I usually do BUT it was not junk, I ate more Carnivore than usual. I have been very blessed to NOT turn to junk for most of the 2 years on Carnivore. So they left this morning and I am relaxing and getting back into my peaceful routine...lol...when they are here there are foods in the house that aren't here when they leave. We've got this and I will not beat myself up for eating too much meat yesterday!!!! I would love to hear more about ideas to help put Hashi's into remission, Neisha! Health and big dang hugs~~~
Girl I love your vulnerability. Thank you for your honesty. I love your heart. I struggle with eating sugary foods.
Sometimes every part of our lives needs a trim…not just our hair. Thanks for this Neisha.
I needed this today! For the last week due to xtra stress I’ve eaten some potato chips and chocolate and this morning my joints hurt so badly 😢tomorrow is July 1st back on strict carnivore! I’m not letting those little voices in my head that want me to cheat win! We’ve got this 💪🏻🥰
THANKS for being so authentic & transparent, Neisha!! 🙏 SO TRUE: that junk we crave isnt worth the week+ of setback!
We are praying for you! I was carnivore for 5 months and feeling so good. Then had a stressful "vacation" camping trip with a (toxic) family member which was so disappointing it launched me into a month of binge eating. I was bedridden during the month of out of control carb binges which caused a flare of my mystery diseases (pain, fatigue, depression, anxiety). It was not worth it! I've been clean carnivore for 5 days now and feeling better. Back in Ketosis and back to the gym. Thank you for being honest!!!!!
This is the most relatable vlog to date! I am in a mess of legal issues caused by stalking neighbors and my blood pressure and kidneys are taking a huge toll from the stress and anxiety. I have wanted nothing more than big bags of tortilla chips and salsa, but like you said "that doesn't provide true comfort". The struggle is real, every day. Thank you for being real with us and sharing your struggles. It keeps us hanging on when we wanna let go.
I really appreciate your honesty. You are helping people huge by being so open. Want to say a big thank you.
I just started carnivore to help with thyroid, blood pressure and blood pressure issues. The cravings as I come off of the sugar are killing me. But I am determined to fight the good fight. I am glad there are people like you on here to keep me encouraged.
Thanks Neisha! I’ve been struggling too!! We’ve got this!!!❤
I watched this the day you posted it. It has stayed with me, rolling around in my head, for days. You have no idea how much I needed to hear it, and to hear YOU saying it! Make no mistake, Neisha. You are having a positive impact on people you don't even know. Thank you!
Girl, you are NOT alone. I too HAVE to watch EVERYTHING AND I MEAN EVERYTHING that goes into this mouth! I too have been trying to add back in some “good dairy” in my ketovore diet and not sure I can do it even if it is A2. It SUCKS to have IBS but 2 weeks ago, went off plan and the PAIN! FORGET IT NEVER WORTH IT….Me, gotta clean it up for myself. Just get tired of “watching” myself but I have to…SO WE FOCUS ON WHAT WE CAN EAT AND NOT WHAT WE CAN’T!
What is your good dairy? I can only do lactose free half and half by Organic Valley in my coffee
@@auntdee9678 I’m trying to add in just a little A2 grass fed organic milk and raw A2 cheese. I only use it in coffee and I have been making keto organic fruit pops for my son with the A2 cream and half and half. If I eat to much, its trouble but I usually am pretty disciplined with the pops and THEY ARE AWESOME! Can’t eat much though
@@lauriesherman5340 I just started making freezer pops with plain yogurt but I add a little maple syrup and coconut extract. So good. I can do yogurt, thankfully.
I have been struggling bad this summer! Being a wife, mom, barely scrapping by at the moment and getting my Master's degree, still waiting to hear if I got the job I recently applied/interviewed for. I totally caved the past few weeks eating total junk and my body has reacted horribly! I will pray for us both! I have been writing out Romans chapter 8 in my journal and reflecting on the Word. That seems to be helping the most. ❤
Amen!
❤❤❤❤
We all have struggle times. When this happens, I binge you and Dr Berry and y'all are my strength and encouragement! We are happy to be here for you in return!
I just found your husband on here and now I found you and I know God led me here because as an RN who is at my lowest with emotional and binge eating I need to take charge of my health NOW. I need both perspectives from both of you because I’m now a SAHM who homeschools and I need to get my health in order to have the energy and vitality my family and I deserve. Thank you for your vulnerability. I needed it so much.
I really appreciated this video today because I'm elderly and I have been carnivore for three and a half months now and trying to get rid of arthritic pain and feet ankles and knees. I would like a juicy hamburger sometime with the bun but haven't given in yet. Thank you for the video it's encouraging!!!
I buy from Burgerking and ask for no bun or I would eat it..
I buy the Keto bread from Costco. I eat a lot of Cheeseburgers on a plate, add onions, dill pickle, mustard, and sugar-free ketchup. About once a month I use the keto bread as my “bun”. It’s not as good as a yummy bun, but it satisfies that craving for only 2 net carbs.
I heard a guest the other day, an older post from Kelly(?) She was saying that she has literally grieved for the things that she knew she was not going to be able to eat anymore .. that really says something, doesn't it? This is hard sometimes! and part of community is getting tips from each other, so I'm glad you asked people to post ideas that help them! Thank you, Neisha.. stay strong!
I appreciate the honesty so much. All of it. The diet soda addiction, the emotional eating, the need to clean up the diet for health reasons 🙋♀️ That’s all me too. I’ve been meat based since 2019 and the cravings for not great food choices are still present more often than I care for. They’re manageable, but some days I just don’t want to manage them. Anyway, love the haircut!
Neisha, thank you! Thank you for being honest and showing us that we’re all on this journey together! Hang in there! All the blessings and prayers!
Neisha, I'm so happy you are doing this in July. I had my hysterectomy last Monday and just hearing you tell your story, knowing you struggle too, helps motivate me and to get back to where I was in Jan-Mar challenges. You can do this hun❤ we both can.
For me, the entire binging mechanism hinges on my inner child self needing to be soothed. As a young child, food was the only thing I had to turn to to calm and soothe myself; to feel safe and cope with my family situation. If I take the time to REALLY look at what I'm feeling and needing when I want to binge, the binge foods lose their chokehold on me. 💚
Get those binge foods out of the house!
@@DebraRN1195 There are NEVER any binge or non carnivore foods in my house. If I am binging, it's because I've gotten into the car, driven 8 miles to the nearest store and purchased what I was craving. Lucky for me, I live in an extremely rural area; the nearest fast food restaurant is an hour away.
I could have written every single word of this. The unfortunate thing is my triggers are fast food and they are all around me. Some days the thoughts of binging feel unbearable until I finally give in. I’m praying that doing mostly carnivore will help eliminate my cravings and need to emotionally eat.
@@pmaciel44 it will absolutely help!!!! Do BBBE for 1 week and you will be amazed.
The Lord works in incredible ways.
I really needed to hear this today Neisha. I’ve BEEN eating my feelings and struggling with my food addiction really badly this whole month and my body gave me a wake up call.
I value your vlogs 💜
It is so refreshing to hear we are not alone. We all think we go through these struggles alone and look at others thinking they have it all figured out. We don't. We go through motions in life of having it all figured out vs having the wheels come off. We need to approach ourselves with a lot more grace and understanding rather than judgement. Thank you so much for sharing your realness. We try to escape feeling bad/sad/lonely/bored as we are hard wired to go towards pleasure away from pain, but if we can learn to be comfortable with that momentary uncomfortable feeling and say "hey, this is okay. We all feel like this sometimes. I don't need to judge. I am OK in this moment and it will soon pass", then we just might find ourselves being a bit more gentle with ourselves.
Love love love your honesty. As a diabetic I am on a low carb quest and am really struggling. But I know I have to do this. I want to be around for when I become a grandmother one day. Being real on your channel makes me feel relatable to you and motivates me to not give in to temptation. After two weeks my sugar levels have dropped significantly and I’m hoping after 10 years I can get my thyroid under control too. You are beautiful inside and out. Thank you again 😊
I’ve been on and off of ketovore for months now and I feel and look horrible. I’m back on it with you @niesha. My therapist told me for comfort I need to take ky dog for a walk, meditate , pray. Find what else comforts me that doesn’t include food. We got this.
I’m so with you on getting back on track. Been slowly slipping from my healthy practices. Thank you 🙏 for sharing your struggles with us.
Emotional eating is so hard to overcome! Especially when we’re going through a lot of life’s lessons that are thrown at us and we aren’t handling them well ! I just have to remind myself how long it’ll take me to come back from cheating! I feel ya ! We all face this from time to time ! Stay strong and carry on carnivore strong !
Good to see I am not the only one that struggles with the same food issues as you neisha. I have health issues 2x cancer survivor one of which was thyroid. So I am living with being underactive and no thyroid. I am going carnivore and dairy free for July to get the junk out of my life. Can't wait to see recipes from you. I have been keto since 2020 and carnie on and off. Love you, mean it - deb ❤
Girl, I have days that I stand at the kitchen counter eating chunks of brown sugar out of the bag. So I hear you. What I found is that the little junky things I eat destroy my day. Hunger is stimulated once again, where if I stay on pure carnivore I am never hungry. Has been way too hot for walking, so there is a lot of time to get bored and cheat. Not worth it! My motivation is the joy I had when I slipped into those size 4 skinny jeans. Big step away from the pre-carnivore 14’s.
Thank you for this video. I am almost four months pregnant and I was determined to do a fully carnivore pregnancy as it was the diet that aided in conception, but with these cravings I have been slipping; I've been feeling the same way about meditation and sleeping enough and even the savory comfort foods. Everything you said was like GIRL, SAME. Good luck on your journey, you're not alone.💜
A Carnivore baby!
💪🏼👶🏼
A better breed of human!
Do it for our species!
Let’s get back on track!
🗺️ ❤️ 🙏🏼
Anything for your Baby!!❤️
This is very inspiring to see that even Neisha has struggles with temptation but seeing your resolve to stay with what is working and best for your health reminds me that I can keep going too! Thank you for this!
Thank you for your content and encouragement, as I too HAVE to be on this diet (actually currently have to be Lion because I'm so inflamed due to autism comorbidities).
I was bedridden for two plus years due to said illnesses, and you and your husband helped me to heal. Now, I'm able to move, walk, work and am generally so much better!
Currently doing Lion for a few more months as I can feel more inflammation needs to exit, and then I'll be reintroducing foods one by one.
What you're doing to help people truly is a Godsend and I'm praying for your every blessing. Prayers too for anyone reading this at all! May you be extremely blessed in Jesus's name. ❤
Has lion diet helped you with meltdowns, shutdowns, sensory issues? I’m autistic and so is my son. I’m trying to figure out what to do to help us both
That's awesome it helped u w your asd comorbidities! I'm struggling w the same. Meat and fruit w a green juice seems to help me the most (I don't have a colon due to EDS, a comorbidity of asd), so I need some food items that hydrate me like fruit and green juice
@unhurriedhomemaker8071 oh my gosh, yes!
Don't walk, run to it! I was doing carnivore and felt alright, but 4 days of doing Lion I was a new woman. I do highly suggest, if you haven't already, make sure to check your own possible comorbidities - I'm EDS, MCAS and POTS, and so I can't have leftovers AT ALL; everything must be fresh or frozen....I truly can't believe how drama my diet is, but being aware of these things is truly necessary for me, and lifesaving, as I can't live the life I'm meant to when flared.
Also, may I suggest Aspire probiotics? Godsend #2.
And looking into Brillia if focus is still an issue for either of you after those two changes.
My life compared to 9 months ago is utterly night and day. I'd say at this point I'm 75% healed...I couldn't walk, think or process emotions peacefully or appropriately for a couple of years. I am 100% anti-drama and all about pulling myself up by the bootstraps so living that miserably was untenable for me.
I am praying for you and your son to have perfect healing and wonderful results. I believe we were made extraordinary to do extraordinary things but sometimes it takes a surprising detour or two for us to arrive at Who We Are Meant To Be and I pray your road is easy and blessed.
Thank you so much for all the input! It helps a lot 😊
@@natalieerickson5519 can u explain a what brilla does?
I definitely relate to this. At the start of this year I was strict Carnivore, but also transitioning to a new job as a chef at an Italian restaurant, so after some time pizza & pasta gradually slipped back into my diet, which lead to me eating/craving more fast food, more highly processed food, ect. Although I don’t have autoimmune issues, I recently got sick (two times in one month) for the first time in well over a year. I’m not back on track yet, but this video is motivating me to do a “Carnivore Reset” for myself.
Neisha, you have a LOT of unseen friends out here! Thanks for the pep talk. July as Carnivore challenge just may help MANY of us! Trying to lose maybe 5 pounds to be ready for a Guns and Roses concert. I'm in! (as for chips! Yes, the tortilla chips with hot sause or guacamole is a downfall for me but haven't had in many months
Thanks for being real and not a hero. Cravings and old woe creep back into my routine too. Nice to know more people struggle trying to stay on the best path
Girl thank you so much for this. I have been struggling too lately and I so appreciated hearing this. I forget that I’m not alone in these crummy addictions.
This was a well needed video for me. I also have thyroid issues & and I need to get back on track. Hearing this today kept me going. ❤
Thank you so much for that- I so needed that! I have been on carnivore for 6months and love it but the sweet cravings have not stopped! Im cheating too much on lily’s chocolate products! I have AUS as well with skin and mild arthritis. That was the reason to start carnivore which has really helped and opened my eyes to the wrong information we have been told about diet and cholesterol! So it’s 4th of July weekend with family and lots of food! Pray for me! This message gave me strength and reminder the reason I don’t feel great after an indulgence😞✝️🙏🏻. Thank you for being there!
I am doing the exact same thing right now too! Back to nearly 100% carnivore and fasting for the last two weeks and boy do I feel so much better. Things were creeping in and not even super terrible stuff but I could feel the difference in how they were making me feel and it was totally messing with my sleep too. Here’s to continued wellness 😊
In my unhumble opinion, this is one of your all-time best videos. This video will encourage more women because you were real and raw, and admitted to still be addicted and vulnerable. Thank you!
This is a prefect video for me right now. Thank you for being so transparent. I am a binge eater and have been struggling to stay away from the junk. Emotional eating is my downfall. I have a neurological disorder that is in remission but like you it will always be there. Your hair looks amazing!! You are fabulous!! Keep the strength!!
I needed this today and relate so strongly. I’m 37 weeks pregnant and have gestational diabetes, I’ve managed my sugars with keto/ketovore most of my pregnancy but my sugars are starting to creep up here at the end. Need to stay strong and eat some meat and get this baby out healthy! 🥩💪🥰
One of the things I learned is that pregnancy cravings (just like my own food cravings) is caused by nutrient deficiency. If you think about the common stereotype of "pickles-and-ice-cream" and think about each item, you can get to the basic elements your body needs. Pickles? Salty. Your body wants minerals. Ice-cream? Rich, creamy, sweet. Your body wants fuel - fat and sugar. Feed your body the elements and you won't have the cravings.
I started adding liquid trace minerals (electrolytes) to my diet, usually in my morning coffee (with cream), and I've found that the urge to snack has virtually disappeared.
The only snacking I do now is habit-based snacking, emotional eating or boredom snacks (more habits). This requires emotional discipline, but also, it helps to switch to something that's just as easy as chips, but isn't chips... so I eat pecans and beef jerky. These are easy snacks to eat and aren't cheap processed crap.
I actually fill up on these, because I'm feeding my body the fuel that it needs. Over time this has resulted in less snacking, because it takes less and less to fuel me. The result has been that I'm feeling less snacking urges.
This tapering-off of snacking urges didn't require discipline; it just happened as a direct result of remineralization (from electrolytes) and proper fueling with healthy meats and fats.
So, get plenty of minerals and snack only on healthy fuels. You will have less cravings.
I know what you mean my friend. Going through the same thing. Love those doritos but just can't do it. Let's have each others backs and just keep carnivoring 😊
Thank you so much for this, Neisha 🌻 it’s a really awful feeling when you’re going through all of that mental torture of ‘it’s fine, just eat some Doritos’ and exactly what you said about those kinds of foods just push our bodies into chaos and inflict pain long term and make us sick. Thank you for your honesty and kindness ✨ so many of us going through this and it’s lovely to feel supported and not alone. Really love and appreciate all you do.
Thank you for your transparency, We all are humans And it's good that you're able to talk this through. That's the good thing about fellowship we realize we're not the only one on the ship❤
Neisha, I’m diabetic and the need to eat junk food is so real. Thank you for reminding me that I have to stop those urges.
Thanks for being so open and honest. You and Ken are such an inspiration to me. Sending prayers your way. Hair looks gorgeous, by the way!
✋🏻guilty, I’m struggling BIG TIME. As I sit here eating pasta, Ive decided I’m coming along this July journey with you in hopes of getting back on track. I’ve been carnivore 3 years with a 75 lbs weight loss and SO MANY health benefits . ( before carnivore I was diagnosed Hashimotos and hormonal issues including PCOS, estrogen dominance and insulin resistance. ) I was feeling and doing amazing until My dad passed away in November and I’ve been off since. I’ve been eating crap and feeling crappy, physically and emotionally . I just can’t seem to get it together 😢.
I’m committing to July. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
You had a valid reason for slipping, I'm sorry about your dad. He wouldn't want you to let your health spiral down because of him. You got July! And then you'll have August...and so on.
So sorry for your loss. Emotional eating can be such a struggle. I struggle with emotional and stress eating, too, and have been really bad lately. Good job on committing to getting back on track in July. I need to do the same.
So Sorry for losing your father. Grief causes us to subconsciously do things like binge eating. we need the comfort it offers. I get addicted to certain foods & it's a real struggle to put the fork down. But realize that I can only help myself. Your grief will eventually ease. Emotionally it'll get better & he'll be there in your heart supporting you always.💖
🙏
@@barbquethank you , you’re absolutely right.
Such a timely video. I had some fries & 1/2 a crumble cookies this week. Up 5 pounds in a week. 😔 Was already thinking of trying carnivore for the first time in July after 3 years of keto. I also have Hashimoto’s & vitiligo. This post is my encouragement to try carnivore in July & see how by body responds.
You know what I've been missing the most from the ol' days? A HUGE bowl of warm buttery popcorn while watching a movie with my boys. Mmm, I miss those days, but I'm so grateful for feeling good. I feel so much better since finding Dr. Berry and yourself Nurse Neisha. Thanks for being real. I'll say a prayer for you and your goals and the journey you're on.
Popcorn is hard because there isn’t a true replacement and my husband makes it all the time! Pork rinds work or anything with butter and a lot of salt, even hamburger with salt and butter tastes kinda like popcorn.
You can do this, be strong.
Thank you for being so honest, Neisha! It’s so helpful to know you struggle just like I/we do! This video helps so much! ❤️🙏🏻
We all fall into this from time to time. Glad you recognized it, many do not! Your hair looks great, shiny, bouncy & healthy❤
Neisha girl you have totally got this! 💪🙌😘 We stand beside you on this... we're here to help support you as well my dear.
It just proves…YOU’RE HUMAN baby girl ❤and it’s good to know! Continued progress on your health journey 😊Hashi girl myself!
P.S. I had to talk myself away from the cookie aisle while limping in pain asking myself “how long are you going to continue this foolishness?”………I won😊
👏👏👏
💕
I loved the authenticity of this post. Thank you for showing your humanity.
I'm in the exact same boat! Me too. Thanks for the moral support for July. And your hair looks AMAZING!
You got this 😊 I am also going Carnivore all this month. I can't eat veggie or anything else at the moment that won't flare up my diverticulitis . I had Grave's disease but after two doses of Radioactive Iodine. 15 yrs ago, I don't have a working Thyroid and I am now Hypo Thyroid and now and again I go back to Hyper Thyroid. I am in constant pain. I have been eating Carnivore for the last 4 days and feel amazing. Yeah I do believe and want this way of eating to feel better, I just want to feel better. 💕💕
Thanks so much for being so vulnerable and real, Neisha. We got this. ❤❤
THANK YOU for being transparent- honestly made me cry-I know that this was a year ago but it still means so much! I really feel the Lord has led me to this lifestyle as it’s been 30 years of everything else!!
You are a huge blessing- I appreciate all the content- truly a life changer!!
This video couldn’t have come at w better time. Thanks for being so honest. I’ve struggled with a lot of the same things in June. My goal for July is ketovore and absolutely NO dairy. I’m not only a carb addict but also a dairy addict.
Well said Neisha, keep strong for your sake and your family
Thank you for your heart-felt video and wishing you all the best, Neisha. I know you'll be fine. When emotional eating impulses start to bother me, I stay out of the kitchen, take walks with the family, drink my fav herbal tea and eat some extra salt. I know it will pass and I'll feel better.
Love your honesty 😊, I have become very laid-back in my eating. Hearing you get back on track has motivated me to get back on track.
Giiiiiirl!! I feel you with binge tendencies!!! Back in the day I could put away a big ol bag of hot Cheetos dipped in hot cheese. Fortunately I found you and your hubby's channel and have been keto (now carnivore) for the past 5 years. Lost close to 100 pounds. Carnivore has done amazing things for my binge tendencies. So thankful I found y'all and appreciate all you do!!❤
So validating to hear you admit to junk food cravings. It’s my struggle too. It’s not our fault. Growing up eating junk food programs your brain to need it for dopamine - the feel good hormone. The struggle is REAL! Thx again, Neisha!
I have also slipped off carnivore. My body I’d paying with return of IBSD! You’re so right it’s just not worth it! I’m fasting more and back on strict eating pattern. Already starting to feel better
I love your honesty Neisha. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, feelings, struggles and worries. You are so relatable. A word of advice: don't be so hard on yourself and try not to worry you are doing an amazing job being a Wife and Mother.❤💐
I am trying to increase my salt intake too. It's hard to avoid snacks. Right now my strategy is always keeping some salty electrolyte drink nearby 24/7 and planning out my food. Keeping my hands busy cleaning or crocheting leaves less time for snacks. Hang in there! Love you & Mr. Berry!
Struggling g with the same situation . Gonna give a good old try to clean it up with you. Thanks so much for sharing. Wishing and praying for the both of us and anyone else who is facing this.
I relate, Girl! Thank you for sharing your heart and your struggles. I’ve been keto since 2/2021 and 95% carnivore since 8/2021. I’ve struggled with sugar addiction and binge eating my entire life (53 year old woman). On keto OMAD I lost 80lbs went carnivore and gained 25lbs back because of binging on dairy. I’ve dealt with very high stress family situations for the last two years and when faced with emotional stress I allowed myself dairy instead of sugar and highly processed carbs, but it’s time to continue my fat loss and get gain control of my emotional health and gain the stability emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually that allows me to be available for my God, my husband, my kids, my grandkids, and my community. I will be joining you in cleaning up my food choices and looking to the Word and my time with the Lord to bring the peace and joy that only He can provide. As I lay down my attempts to comfort myself and allow Jesus to be my comfort I find freedom in my mind and peace in my heart. Thank you for all you do my friend.
We just had a family BBQ over the weekend. I made a ton of meat (pork belly, hog log, smoked sausage, bratwurst, ribs, chicken thighs, tri-tip and rib eye steaks) along with bell peppers, zucchini, asparagus and corn on the cob (for the family, not me). My sister-in-law brought all the desserts (doughnuts, bunt cake, apple pie, cookies and ice cream). I told her that 6 months ago I would have sampled one of everything. I made myself eat the fatty section of rib eye first, which was delicious, and filled up on all the meats to help curb me away from the sugars all over my table. A quick reminder or two of the bathroom issues that would plague me at work the next day and a hearty serving of electrolyte water helped keep me honest with myself. I’m down 25 lbs since the start of the year and half way to my weight loss goal.
You’re so relatable and I really appreciate your honesty. I just found out I have Hashimoto’s and I have been keto/carnivore for the past month with a few cheat days. It’s a struggle adjusting to the new diet. I really want to put it into remission
I've been a bit worried for you here lately. I could see the additional stress taking a toll on you. Glad you are sharing and that you realized it was time to tighten up. Love you Neisha.
I love Neisha's honesty. I love the "I'm not perfect I still have temptaitons." Because while I've found many like minded souls who are doing keto/carnivore for health purposes I still run into a fair amount of "I'm better than you I don't even crave carbs anymore" holier than thou people. It's negative and unhelpful. We're not here to compare, we're here to support one another in our quest for the best health.
LOL, this just popped up on my notifications, from last year!! thank you Neisha for your transparency and honesty. My comfort foods are also salty, spicy and crunchy but I have given them up because I want to be healthy. I hope that your going back to carnivore accomplished what you wanted it to. I am Ketovore, but do have some carnivore days. I may try your method of 5/2 carnivore to ketovore. I love all the information that you and Dr. B share with your UA-cam family and with your tribe (I am a member). God bless you and your family.
Neisha I want you to know that I started this diet thanks to you. I'm 34 and planning to have the opportunity to be a mother after my 40's, and you have inspired me to start healing and nourishing my body the way it's supposed to. Two days ago I was eating quite well, and I mean brown rice, greens, homemade juices, all organic, etc., and still I couldn't stop thinking about food. I thought that with the high consumption of carbs it would be very difficult for me to transition, and I have been digesting educational content for three weeks to do things well. Right now I'm two and a half days on the ketovore diet, much more on the carnivore side. I feel phenomenal! I'm not interested in eating any carbs, I don't feel like it, I don't even think about them. What I am not going to leave are the berries, I am eating a handful during the day. Today I got grass fed raw milk and it is delicious! I used to not digest milk, but this milk is wonderful! Thanks a lot!
Your hair is always pretty. Thanks for sharing. Yes, it is so important to take care of yourself for your family and especially for your health!
WOW, Neisha!!!! That really helped me remember to get back into eating properly. It's SO easy for me to slip into being lazy and just eating what I want, and then I feel awful. Thanks SO much! 💗
I just love you. Thank you for speaking to us and reminding us we are capable of more.
I’m right there with you. My partner is more keto, and it’s so easy to slide down that slippery slope, and I find myself eating more veg. Even knowing that carnivore works best for me, it’s tough. I’ve got to tighten up again. Thanks for sharing the struggles!
Thanks for your vulnerability. When the stress hits its so easy to fall into those back slides. I'm there right now too. Your post has helped me decide to get back on track.
I needed to hear this. I have an autoimmune disease too. And I have been binge eating and feel like crap. I will vow to carnivore with you. No more taco Doritos for me. ( I ate a whole bag in the last two days). I definitely feel so so so much better with zero carbs. And your hair looks great
One of the things I personally love about you and Dr. B is your honesty and your balanced view of this way of eating and living. Thank you so much for your honesty. I’ve been there and glad to know I’m not alone. Get back on that wagon honey!! ❤
Girl, I’m relating so much to what you’re saying!!! I can feel my inflammation getting worse and so it’s time to tighten my belt and do the strict carnivore!!! We got this!!!❤❤
Neisha, thank you for being vulnerable and reminding us that our patterns of the past are still there. I know you live this life to the best of your ability but that you are human. I have given in a few times and it never satisfies me. I find that if I am emotional, fasting is not a strong way to fight. If I stuff myself with healthy choices, my body won't accept the food. Hugs.
Nice video, Neisha. I've been keto for 18 months. I suffer from C-PTSD. Chocolate is what I used to turn to for comfort and I still have strong desires for chocolate bars, chocolate ice cream and M&M's. I've held strong, somehow! I keep telling myself it ain't worth it! Hang in there. Thanks for sharing! - Rick
Love you, mean it… you’re really down to earth and genuine(so is Dr Ken) and it’s why we love you so much… we can trust your information…I’m beginning ketovore/carnivore from LCHF and taking one day at a time! Your videos help immensely
I’m trying carnivore for July too! You go girl!
