      I haven't seen any single coach push supplements. As for pushing their channel I love it the more success stories on UA-cam the better. It gets the word out for everyone and makes it a better chance people cross paths with them. Weather people decide to be a personal trainer or coach I could care less almost none of them push it on anyone but the reality is I think these people truly enjoy the feeling they get helping others. I would love to personally coach my family if they would only do it and obviously wouldn't want a dime but I think these coaches deserve money for their extra time as well. Either way coaches are leaders in this community and shouldn't be criticized in my opinion

      I started the carnivore diet mid April some weeks I'm very good and some weeks I have added some veggies; primarily when I go out or with friends. I have lost 25 lbs thus far; my purpose being I don't want this diet too restrictive because I don't want to worry about every thing that goes into my mouth; in this journey I have learned more about nutrition then ever before which has help; I have no idea what my goal is because I have been overweight since my second child was born; I have no idea what my body will look like since it is a different body since the children; I have started a new decade 70 and over all I look much younger then my age; I don't have any wrinkles. The biggest thing is feeling well; I can say I have any addictions it doesn't bother me to have cookies or sweets in the house; I only have this when the grandkids are here; I rarely have an urge to eat.

      I've been pushing this forever that all keto does is make this a hundred times harder because you never let go of the carbs. I don't understand what people don't get this. Even if she succeeded six months from now her cravings would be still there while yours are long gone

      @arthurfonzarelli9828 11 місяців тому +6

      ​@@dianejones4276I think you have to eliminate all dairy so have you done that? The entire key to success with carnivore is learning how to eat perfectly. If you're doing keto you're not learning perfectly. I'm not saying you can't go back to keto but the further you go without cheese and keto rules of 20 carbs a day the better chance you have a long-term success and the wait will fall off guaranteed. I'd also try to add in a little bit of walking as I notice my scale moves when I walk and if I don't it won't. Also if it's possible eat in a 6-hour window only if you're trying to lose weight because keeps your blood sugar levels low

    I had to go to the doctor this week for a rash (poison ivy) that wouldn't clear up. This doctor in the practice hadn't seen me since 2018 (he's not my regular PC) he walked in and the first thing he said was, "How did you lose 33 pounds!". I have actually lost a net of 55 pounds since he's seen me, but I was able to say BBBE and no grains. He was floored and told me I looked really good! I have just turned 61 and I have more energy than I had at 41! I am in a bit of a stall I have about 20-25 pounds more to go to get to my doctor's goal weight. But my biggest triumph has been no more T2D, HBP, acid reflex. I still have some arthritis and I still have some neuropathy but that's getting better too. I can run again and when I'm with my grandkids we run up hills! So much fun, they love it that Grandma can run with them!

I’m 62, I only need to lose 15-20 lbs, but I have joint pain and some deformity in my hands that I would sure like to stop in its tracks! My poor papa’s hands were so gnarled in his last 15-20 years.

    This is probably my fifth time watching this video, Kelly. I cried, yet again, when Susan said that she cried out to God for help and she heard Him say, "I've got a plan for that". After coming to Christ late last year, I remember crying out to God for help with my weight issues, and I heard the exact same thing from the Holy Spirit - "I have a plan for that".
    Today, I prayed yet again in my car to God, as I was about to go in for a check up at the Doctor's. I asked if it is God's will that He please show me the way to finally reverse my weight and health issues ... It began with the Doctor and her plan for me to help me on my path, and then ended this evening with this video and a couple of your other videos with your Group Members popping up once again!
    In every one of those videos I watched, they spoke about the Lord. 🙏🏻🕊️❤️

When I finally went full carnivore out of the blue my husband joined me. 😲 I recently heard him literally having a full blown argument with his mother and I overheard statements like.."Im not an embicile mother!" And "I've watched my wife doing this for years now and I'm telling you they've been lieing to us mom!"
    I never knew that all this time he really, really had been listening to me. Every single revelation I had through my journey in my excitement I would of course share with him but you know how it is.. others don't share in the enthusiasm of such things.

    I totally understand your plight! I'm 68 and I've lost 75 pounds! I was mostly housebound for 8 years due to respiratory issues and allergies. I felt completely hopeless about my weight! I could feel it increasing every single day. I stayed away from sugar and ate only low glycemic foods but it didn't matter, so I really thought there was no hope for me - especially at my age. Then, through a Christian youtube channel that I followed, she one day said that she would not normally post something like this because this was Jesus' channel not hers. However, she felt led by Him to share the story of hers and her husband's weight loss on Keto and she gave the youtube channel of Dr Ken D Berry and also the free carbmanager app to track your carbs! That was all I needed! I'm not totally carnivore (but mostly) and even though I've been VERY hypoglycemic since I was a teenager, I now do intermittent fasting every day and find that I actually feel the best with OMAD (one meal a day) and I NEVER get low blood sugar! To me that's a miracle all by itself! I've gone from size 16 pants to size 8 or smalls. I'm so thankful to God for nudging this sister in Christ to share her Keto Story!

I have just had a double hip surgery but am fine now and can walk for 30 minutes on level 4 without much of a problem . I want to go carnivore so hopefully it can make me get better sleep so I won’t feel so lousy during the day . Susan and Kelly you are such inspirations to see that like us you battled with carb and sugar addictions and found a way to overcome it .Tomorrow is Sept. 1st. And, I hope I can change my way of eating to just protein and fat. I hope it will make me feel better because I do have joint pains which actually only started really badly last year . Having to think of meals for the family makes that difficult - but I pray God will help me on this journey .
      Susan, I can relate to your story of God literally speaking to you - because I too have had that Epiphany experience !!! That was when I first realized that God does speak to us and my faith in Him has been unshakable ever since . I pray that everyone could have this experience so that they can know firsthand that their is a loving God out there looking after us and we are not alone and He is just a prayer away. Sadly, Many young people these days do not know this reality.
      Pray I can stick to my 30 day challenge of being ketovore/ carnivore. I am afraid I cannot eat enough of the daily protein/ fat required to make a success of this adventure.

      @@milesbautista3583 On your comment about cooking for your family...I began my keto journey privately. I didnt tell a soul. I was going to wait til after the holidays but finally realized I was tired of waiting. I researched for a month, preparing. So I started and actually went into ketosis on Thanksgiving day 2019. I knew if I couldn't do it then I wouldn't be able to anyways. I still had two teenagers at home and I was the mom! I did all the cooking. Yes, I had some hiccups but it was so OK! The difference when you fall out of actual ketosis is like the difference between getting a great night's sleep and waking up feeling fresh and ready to face the day joyously and NOT getting good sleep and dragging through the day. It will motivate you! It really does do all they say. I swear. We are all different though so stick with it. 🙏🏼 You will not regret it.

      I LOVE your testimony! Praise God! I’m 65 now and after 4 years keto and good weight loss I decided to try carnivore. I began gaining weight and freaked out! Flailing around trying to figure out what to do for the past year or more and only maintaining a 20# weight gain, or slowly gaining more. I recently decided to go back to keto, after such good success previously. Bad idea. I’ve gained a bit more!
      So, I decided to go with high fat, moderate protein and keep the ultra low carbs that I’ve been doing. I hear too many conflicting voices on YT and it’s so confusing. Some people say don’t eat a lot of fat. You won’t lose the weight. But then I hear good reasons to eat the fat, like through this video with Kelly and her guest. So, I’m gonna go for it. I have a wedding and family reunion coming up and I have not seen these people since I was 20 some odd pounds thinner. It’s very embarrassing for me right now to have to go out of state to see these people that I love and have them see that I’ve gained so much weight back. I still need to lose about 35 to 40 pounds to get to my ideal weight. Please, pray for me! I have done tons of praying myself and seeking the Lord for his wisdom. Thank you for sharing your story!

Here I am 7 months of carnivore under my belt, inching on 60 lbs down and sleeping soundly. I do have times of wanting carbs, mostly bread, but realistically I know if I eat it I will feel horrible. It does feel great to play with my grandchildren, to run after them and not be huffing and puffing!! Great interview Kelly!! See you Monday!

It hurts to get out of bed, that first step on the floor. I have tried many things before, but have always felt so deprived and cravings so strong that I have never made it past 30 days of eating "good". I'm in my 2nd week of carnivore. And for the first time it is Soooo different. I don't crave junk, I am very full, and even after I got laid-off work I did not stuff my face. It was a HUGE accomplishment for me. The BIGGEST difference I have seen with my own eyes in such a short time, is cellulite disappearing before my very eyes. Just Wow!!❤

I was his sole care giver. It was brutal and over those years I stopped caring about me. All my attention and energy were focused on him and trying to give him some quality of life. My only comfort has been food. I am now lost and broken and my health is suffering. I am overweight with so many painful issues . I either give up or try to make carnivore work for me.

    LOVED this interview!! I am a 63 year old woman who has used food for comfort since I was in single digits. Oh, yeah, totally carb addicted. I am an alcoholic (sober 18 years on 2/4/24) and since I quit drinking I’ve complained that I can’t kick my food addiction in the same way: Cold Turkey. I believe I failed at every diet, even keto (which I loved!) because of having too many choices, and focusing on food too much. Carnivore is as close to Cold Turkey as I can get with eating. My mantra is, I eat only animal products. Easy peasy. I make sure to have lots of meat in my freezer so I never have to Think About What To Eat. I never have to walk anywhere in the grocery store than the meat section and the egg area.
    Back to my failure on Keto - I found myself always waiting for the huge spike in energy and mental clarity I felt I was promised but it never came. Today marks 3 weeks for me on Carnivore. I suffered the first week but during the second week, I woke up feeling GOOD! I mean Really Good! My outlook on life is effortlessly positive, I have NO CRAVINGS, and my body is much less achy. The rewards have begun already and I can easily see myself eating this way for the rest of my life. Loose skin be damned.😘 Thank you thank you thank you♥️🎈

      I had a similar experience, Erin. I was eating lean protein and green veggies. I lost weight, but the constipation was unmanageable! I felt in my own body that the more veggies and fiber I consumed, the worse I felt and the worse the constipation. I found an article from World Gastroenterology Journal on the NIH website that talked about a study where 100% of study participants healed themselves of idiopathic constipation by cutting all fiber from their diets! I was shocked. This is not what we're told by doctors and nutritionists. Then, I read that cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy are sometimes advised to eat a no or low fiber/low residual diet to help evacuate the toxins of the chemotherapy from their gut quickly. What? So, *they* KNOW, but they continue to preach and push carbs. As you can probably tell, I'm still mad 😂 I've just started carnivore. I've already had vast improvements in the IBS bloating and relief of constipation; which is amazing! And I had small sores that didn't want to heal- they healed overnight and I'm sleeping better! I'm excited to see how much better I'll feel as my body heals. I'm so thankful.

    I made the HUGE mistake of doing Nutrimost= 500 calories a day for 1 month...lost 40 lbs in 1 month then gained it all back + 15lbs going up to 1000-1200 a day🙄🙄🙄
    Just starting keto & will progress into carnivore.
    5'4" 240lbs at almost 64. Experienced 5 family deaths + 1 more last week. Mental fog, procrastination, agitation, depression, fear feelings, etc.--- God in Christ asked when I was going to turn to & trust Him for help!
    Amazing how easy it is to drift into not spending time with HIM.
    I KNOW that HE led me to the Carnivore groups!

Then came pandemic and gym closed. I gained back 40 of the 60+ lbs I had lost. I’m still struggling and have other health issues holding me back. But I keep putting one foot in front of the other and getting closer to 100% carnivore again. Kelly, you and your guest inspire me!

    Hey Kelly, I am an adult woman and ditched sugar and all carbs around three years ago. Went keto, then full fat carnivore. For 6 months when I first started I felt like I had the flu and digestive issues, as my body adjusted. But I am so glad I stuck with it....and WOW after seven months, and especially 1 year, my health skyrocketed.
    No more skin issues, hormones rebalanced, skin tightened even more, no colds or infections, perfect eyesight, perfect hearing, perfect blood pressure, I never look a day older than 26 years, perfect skin, perfect teeth, beautiful lean but curvy figure, no edema I could go on.

When I ate higher calories a couple of weeks ago I lost a pound. So your adding the hormone balancing is my why because I want to rid myself of the menopause belly. I do feel better than I have emotionally which is huge!!! Delayed does not mean denied! 🎉

Youre still insulin resistant. Its not about calories its about ketones and being fat/protein adapted. You will want to eat a lot of cruciferous veg.

    For me, at 62 years of age and having lost 60+ lbs of the 120lbs I want to lose, my skin isn't really loose. I believe it's b/c I fast 36hrs every few weeks. The reason I fast is b/c I stalled for over a year just eating carnivore. I tried OMAD and every other thing (upping my fat, eating 2-3 times a day in different length eating windows. Stalled. I've upped my calories above 1800 calories to in the 2,000 and 3,000 calories, and still stalled. I eat when I'm hungry (which tends to OMAD), but yeah, fasting is the only thing that seems to work to get me to lose weight. I will say, I eat at least a pound of beef when I eat and some butter.
    People need to find what works for them.

    This was a great interview. I jumped into a committed keto lifestyle for a full year 8 years ago. My weight is 120 lbs on a 5'4 frame but I suffer from anxiety. Losing weight wasn't my goal but to help with my mental/emotional health. I learned a lot but didn't excel on keto...my heart palpitated too fast, even while making sure I kept my electrolytes up. Over the years,, I eventually and organically moved over to locally grown grass-fed beef, pork and chickens and raw milk. butter and eggs from a local farmer. Feeling satiated and satisfied on these foods, the veggies I eat are coming from my organic garden and I use them more as a flavoring. My favorite high-carb vegetable are carmelized onions in butter. Won't be getting rid of raw dairy..... very calming to my nervous system.

    Kelly and Susan, what a blessing this video was! Thank you for taking the time to record and post it. So many things that Susan said resonated with me. I too am in my 60s and I cared for my husband for almost two years before he passed away in January of 2021. Talk about rocking my world! I had known him since I was 17.
    At some point toward the end of 2021, I cried out to God for help with getting over food addictions. I had toyed with keto for at least 7 years but for me it was mostly “cheat-o” and I was tired of feeling bad physically. Those keto snacks are a real distraction!
    Suddenly, in December 2021, one of Kelly’s videos just showed up on my YT home page and I watched it in spite of my initial reaction that eating only meat was a wild concept. I decided to give it 30 days and I started in January of 2022 and the rest is history. I have no idea how much weight I’ve lost because I got out of the daily weight tracking madness but I do know that people are always commenting that I’ve lost a lot and I’ve had to buy new clothes. (My guess is it is somewhere in the neighborhood of 30-40lbs based on a weigh-in at a medical appointment.)
    One of the greatest joys of this whole adventure is seeing how loving our Father is to answer our prayers and if we will be willing to do what He shows us, we will always be victorious. The other wonderful benefits are to feel good overall, to sleep well, to no longer be addicted to recreational foods and to be able to eat something delicious when I’m hungry, which is usually only once or twice a day. Thanks so much for being such kind and bold ambassadors for this way of eating that has allowed me and many others to be released from the prison of food addiction that held us captive for way too many years. God bless you both!

Drs told me I HAD to lose weight, HAD TO! And I was up to 213 lbs from all the sitting, laying around from last year. Until Feb this year I prayed for something ...someone to help me lose weight and that's when Dr. Barry and you Kelly came into my life on that one video together.

You simply must quit using dairy products cheese and heavy whipping cream especially if you want to lose weight. I cannot stress this enough I've seen this happen so many times and it's what stops people from being successful. Not to mention I do think everyone should walk everyday. There was a guy on UA-cam who I follow who's been stalled a year and decided to walk in the month of July and lost 12 lb after not losing anyway for 12 months all by simply walking one to two miles a day basically 30 minutes or less

I've lost 18 lbs in 5 weeks and things have sped up this week as I've added MORE fat - go figure! 💃I will take to heart the advice to eat MORE, and the ratio of protein to fat - I already have a shorter eating window in my day, but I think I can tweak that, too. Kelly, I'm looking into your groups - I'd love to join, just have to see if I can find a good time for my schedule!

I know I am not eating enough meat, but it goes against my common sense to consume more than "just enough!" I followed Keto for 2 years and transitioned to carnivore when beef was my primary choice of food! I am 78 years old, and I feel great on carnivore, however my weight loss has stalled at 55 pounds over a 4-year period. I tell myself I am probably at my ideal weight, since I have surpassed weight goals twice (at 150 and 140 pounds). I have recently stopped using heavy cream in my coffee, and now I am ready to give up coffee and cheese!

    I hear your messages about calorie restriction being a bad thing, both you and Susan. I SEE the results! And I am still terrified of eating more and I don’t eat a lot, only about 1,000 calories😅. I know, I know!. I’m in a wheelchair right now so getting exercise is a challenge. I’ve been strictly carnivore since the end of June 2023 and I’m losing weight and feel better than I’ve felt in ages, and I’m not hungry, but quite satisfied. Quite frankly,the thought of upping my caloric intake terrifies me. I feel like once I lose the weight I must lose, I’ll start to gradually up my calories and see what happens.
    Kelly, I joined your Monday coaching sessions in July and will be back on in September.I LOVE these sessions and the other people on them. Keep up with the messaging about WHY caloric restriction is not good for us. That message will penetrate this very thick wall of 60 years of being told I will always have to restrict my calories or I would pay the price in weight gain. It was a mantra I the home I lived in.
    Thanks for sharing your stories. Susan is inspiring!

    LOVED this!!! I'm a fellow Texan and 66...so this was relatable! I'm also a proponent of needing to eat MORE, not less, to lose weight. I'm 5'11" with a large frame and still plenty of musculature (thanks to my warrior-king ancestors)...so I need food to fuel my body!!!

    It's SO SO encouraging to hear of the success and healing at age 62. I'm 55 and wish I was half as healthy. I would love to hear more from Susan. What a great encourager and mentor she would be. Thanks for having her on! Praying for my break from food addictions and healing too.
