I had a date with a guy who was astounded when I told him I am Carnivore. He said his DOCTOR is 'PUSHING" him to go Carnivore! I was delighted to know that there is ANOTHER DR who gets it. A Doc who wants his patients to get BETTER. So now we are continuing to date, and he's enthusiastic about Carnivore. Thanks Dr. Shawn, appreciate you SO MUCH.
Wish you both all the both and I'm cautiously excited about good times ahead :)
Many of us supporting carnivore, keto, low carb,....all depending on the patient (age, race, activity levels, sleep patterns, lifestyle, goals, past health history and present health status, plus always have to consider economic status and location where they live.
eat his meat.
@@DrAJ_LatinAmericamy GP in the UK has shown moderate interest in my carnivore diet, and certain not against or dismissive. I'm sure the political push for "plant based" diets for all is actually concentrating minds.
That's so great to hear!
I'm working on this myself. Started at 630+ Lbs. Lost 140 Lbs in 4 months on carnivore. Still losing and adding muscle. About to start a channel about it.
Yes, do it! Congratulations on your fabulous weight loss so far!
That is awesome!
Please do a channel.
@ShardDesu you've got this. If you need help starting your channel, reach out.
Congratulations!! That's so awesome!
It’s kind of humorous that when i was eating junk like candies, ice cream, pastas, tons of carbs, and lots of other unhealthy things. No one seemed to care or tried to get me to eat healthy. But as soon as i started the carnivore way of life everyone has become health experts telling me to get off this diet that it’s going to kill me.
I’m 7 weeks in and 28lbs down and i feel better than I’ve felt in years.
Very common
Because they are all brainwashed. You need to teach them and she them All those vdos. 💪
That's why I'm shutting the f up and when people see a change (namely the close friends I mentioned it to the first time), well here you go, where's your argument? uneducated fools...
Weird ..the devil hates health
It is strange that no one seems to care when you are eating lots sweets and junk food.
Dr Baker! I have been doing this diet for four months. After struggling with depression and overweight for tons of years, I have lost 20lbs (in first 3 weeks) but the big thing is the depression is gone! Praise the Lord and thank you so much for your help. 😊
Congratulations!
Praise the Lord!!!!
Stay the course. It only gets better! Day 92 for me.
@@twyla2575 did you also put depression in remisson?
@@stellaancimer8505 puts my anxiety/depression into remission. Anytime I eat carbs now, I get a lot of anxiety and even depression, depending on what's going on in life.
Been carnivore for 9 months now. Down 135lbs! 44 in waist down to 32. 4x to a large. Zero cardio... I am 53 and I am in the best shape of my life!
@JohnSmith-lc8mp around 2000 per day. I did omad and 48s.
Hey did you drink coffee with carnivore omad?
you lost so much without any sports? Crazy how much shit have you have eaten before that?
I remember when it was a requirement for nurses to be able to cook broth for ill patients. Much more nourishing than dextrose!
It’s all about money
Yes, Exacto !!!
Yes! You should see the crap that even our diabetic patients are served. It's terrible 😢
His story is my story. I was 70 years old, 5'7" , 254 pounds, 42" waist, and a myriad of health issues. Then in 2020 I went Keto for a year and a half and carnivore for the past year. Today I'm 73, 165 pounds, 34" waist, and my arthritis, sleep apnea, acid reflux, bleeding gums, high blood pressure, and pre-diabetic sugar levels are all gone.
HALLELUJAH
GOD IS SO GOOD!!!
Teaching us through those He places in our lives
I don't believe in coincidences never listened to any of this about Carnevoire until about 7 weeks ago and God led us to these Dr's what a BLESSING!!!
Spectacular!
Fantastic and good on you!
Sweettttt!
I am in month 4 of carnivore and loving it. I have sleep apnea. May I ask how you knew you no longer had sleep apnea?
I am a Certified Nutrition Advisor here in South Africa and find the misinformation and fear around this way of life is very difficult to overcome. People cling to the outdated and disproven CICO which I will never recommend or endorse. We keep on, meat heals !
I'm a 49 year old female. I am 5'2 and I weighed 245 at my heaviest. I've been doing Carnivore and I'm close to 200 pounds today. The diet change has helped me feel lighter, and more confident in my ability to lose fat. The key was telling myself, every morning, I love me, today, tomorrow and the rest of my life and the way I show that, is how I treat my body. Stop eating sugar. Sugar is killing us.
I love this! Well done!
Could you advice how you did it? Iam in my 2nd week Ive lost 3 lbs only I am 48yrs 253lbs its hard to keep motivated- Ive been doing dirty keto since 2015 lost 30 lbs but I want to lose more fat @thederangedblood TY!
Yes, Exacto
@@mrshppy76 yes! Stop eating sugar. Stop eating sugar substitutes. Cook from scratch. You will have to face your addiction and the hard truth that the food industry is killing you. Stick to the veggies isles, meat isles and see a doctor to balance out your vitamins. Walking is your friend. Also, take menopause vitamins NOW. Don't wait for menopause symptoms.
@@mrshppy76 Don't focus on the weight! Focus on your health and how you feel! Some people lose weight faster than others! If you want the weight to come off faster and are already fat-adapted, I suggest a 72hr to 100 hour fast once a month to speed up the weight loss!
Incredible transformation. Nice to see him turn his health around
Started Carnivore July 1st. I am down 40 pounds so far. Just joined a gym and walking most days. Feel better than I ever have. Was a skeptic in the beginning but now I am sold. Only wish I would have found this way of eating years ago.
I’m 6’2” and 300 lbs on day 4 of carnivore. My ankle pain was gone yesterday. I will update in 30 days.
How are you doing now?
@@ZekSanchez lost 50 pounds and I’m on cruise control.
Nearly 7 years carnivorous , started 6 months after you Dr Baker, you were the inspiration behind. I am so fit and healthy at 48 years old that I feel almost invisible . Thank you for transforming my life !
You feel invincible, but you spelt invisible?
@@Chris-kr7ggshe’s 48, she feels invisible 😂
Invisible or Invincible???
Yes, Gratitude
I’m one(1) year and nine(9) months into carnivore. My back acne is 95% better but I still suffer from it. My weight, allergies, joint pain, and digestive issues went away completely. My eczema is 95% better also.
I started my Meat & Dairy diet on August 15/23. I'll be posting a video on my 30 day review soon. No grains, no fruits n veggies, no treats, no junk food, it's been so good so far!
If you can get good raw milk, try to find a recipe for yogurt cook it for 36 hours
@@55mblindy unfortunately I live in Canada and raw milk is illegal to buy. I would like to drink raw milk
@@pioneerspiritPS
Dairy can be tricky for some as it might cause inflammation.
Milk has lactose too… a milk sugar.
Day 30 today. Started at 319 Down 23 lbs to 296 , BP 116/62, Fasting Glucose 5.4. Looking forward to the next 30 days.
How did you get on
My dad did hard physical work from childhood. He died at 97. Never had surgery for any joint or tendon. He wouldn’t drink pop or eat chips or processed food. He only ate what my mom cooked him. I’ve had both shoulders done and had all kinds of problems. I spent a lot of my life in a truck eating crap every day.
My grandparents didn’t live as long. My maternal grandmother died at 78. Paternal grandfather in his 60s. They only ate homemade food too. They didn’t even have access to processed food in their rural community and country. But for some, even the homemade bread and the potatoes get to them eventually. My mother’s aunts, uncles, and her own mother all became diabetic. Simply because there was a strong genetic component.
You were given good genetics, time to reclaim while you can, I'm doing the same. Good Luck
@@73cidalia Bread is not real food esp am bread and wheat.... But there's nothing wrong with potatoes, they are high in potassium, and they are not processed... People who get fat and get diabetes drink soda, coffee creamers, juices, pizza, cereal, corn syrup, loads of fake cheese, fries, chips, ice cream... Let's face reality, those are the pb foods.

He's before story is the same as my brother. Have saved this video and will watch it with him. Pray he will hear the message.
I dropped 45lbs of fat after going 90% carnivore. It took me a few weeks to transition to almost all carnivore, but once I did, the 45lbs of fat practically dissolved in under 5 months. I began working out and walking regularly and have maintained all of it. I’m 50 and in better shape than when I was 30.
I love all of these new videos from you Dr. Shawn Baker! I think you may have to change your last name to Carnivorous-Baker. Your ancestors may have been Bakers, but you changed the game!
I started Carnivore 6 days ago. I was 496.4 pounds and today I’m 486.2 pounds. The hardest part for me is realizing that I eat when I was bored. I’m not hungry but I want to eat. I know in time that will go away. So here’s looking to the future.
I played in a hockey jamboree yesterday. About 2 games worth of ice time with only a 6 member team. I am 66 and really had no need to be the one on the bench during each of our five l 15 minutes games. There were six teams and we played every 3rd game. I listened to younger people hurting looking for drugs, being tired, and just not knowing how they were going to finish the day. All the time munching on power/e Gerry bars drinking sports drinks, and beer. After I got home I wrapped birthday presents for my grandson, folded laundry, measured a driveway for dirt work, and a few other chores. Then went over to the birthday party where I assembled the trike, and had dinner doing all the birthday things. When I got home my three border collies were waiting for their fun time and me.
The math is pretty scary but ive gone from 226lbs to 207lbs in 18days. I do a light workout 6x a week and feel great. The cravings are slowly going away. I haven't been under 200lbs for nearly 20 years. For those who are indecisive just go for it. You'll be happy with the results. Stay mentally strong.
So thankful for you vids Shawn, I always get choked up at the testimonies, tears of joy in my eyes as I type
Shawn don't start with the clickbait thumbnails. It's not you. I'm a fan and it puts me off clicking in future.
Lol! I'm not the only one who clicked to see the guy with the fabulous physic. 😂 Though, I do watch most of his videos anyway.😅
totally agree. It makes me doubt his other information.
Today is my second day on carnivore, I'm 39 years old, 5'8" 275lbs. With a 42" waist. I've always been big into fitness and lifting in the past so I'll be starting back at the gym next week. Fingers crossed for me guys
I'm now 2 weeks in and have lost 18 lbs. And my workouts feel great. I recommend this to anyone.
@@JamesKohlman-Ruckle-pm2bxAwesome! What's the progress like now?
Great story. I'm mostly carnivore (I also eat some fruit) and I've recently given up milk and cheese...I still have yoghurt. Getting the milk and cheese out has been great for my gut.
I’m 43 and gaining weight pretty regularly. I’m not sedentary but my job keeps me driving a ton. I got your book yesterday and will read this weekend. Thanks
Reading and doing is two different things. Trust me, this carnivore diet actually works.
I know a few people that would benefit I for one have been seeing great results since June 1 -23 I’m 62 with heart issues. Yes im some overweight. I have lost 30 lbs 5’3 was 205. I’m now 175 lbs Blood pressure is 122/80. From 140s over 90. Amazing.
Started My carnivore lifestyle 8/13/2023...I am a trucker with back problems, arthritis in My hands and had shattered My elbow years ago like a teacup...all of those pains are gone...My psoriasis is clearing up and I feel like I'm melting...was about 330 pounds...no idea what I am now and don't care...my craving for cigarettes is going away and I've noticed My lung function is a TON better even though I haven't tossed them away...yet...I feel so very much better...also starting to feel like I should begin working out oddly enough...haven't felt like this in decades. Carnivore lifestyle is the best decision I have ever made in My 58 years.
Wow! The awesomeness shines through. Everyone wants to change their lifestyle but have different pressures.
Since you are on the road you might want to investigate getting the X3 exercise bar that you can use in place of barbells. It comes with rubber bands and a ground plate that the straps go under for certain exercises. It is portable and doesn't require much space to use. Other truckers have been using it on the road.
@@eyesalooking thank you for the information I will go find them...I was looking into dumbbells and getting 2 sets so I can have one at home and one in the truck...I have been cooking a week at a time so I can eat good food...mostly slow cooker chuck roast with a few short ribs for extra fat and collagen..but literally bought a bunch of grass fed steaks on sale today and can cook them in My truck via a lunch box cooker...My cat seems to like our new diet as well...she goes wherever I do and loves the extra fat she has been getting...lol
@@nikobellic570 thank you for the reply, I hope you are doing well...and yeah...everyone has different circumstances to overcome
Would you have any advice for me? Im a longhaul trucker. Ive been on-ish keto for 2 years and trucking for 1. I bring all of my food and water with me. I team drive, so I can't cook. I was just wondering if you had any tips, tricks or advice on how to do carnivore and truck? Thanks
Edit. I love that you have your cat with you and she shares your food:-) I wish I could bring mine with me.
Yeah... I've got the entire list of metabolic problems.. no need to list them here. My Dr. recommended, really rather firmly, that I eat steak and eggs... full stop. Seeing the results presented here shows me why. The Doc already explained it, but seeing someone who's done it adds a lot of power to the argument for me.
Shawn, I'm 65 yrs. old and I started this diet 1/2/2024. My reason, is to lose weight (I'm 272lbs at 5'10") and to get off my Diabetes Medication. You and Dr. Berry have been an inspiration to me.
Good luck to you.
Great story. He's so chiseled and even has blue eyes now
Your actions are saving lives Shawn. You are a credit to humanity and a great natural leader. Thank you for your dedication.
Yeah! Every carnivore success story gets the word out🥩🥩🥰🥰🥰🤩👍😎
I remember a few years back chicken wings was so cheap. Now, every Tom, Dick and Harry eats them. Result: The price is triple. I worry the price of Beef will go through the roof if the carnivore diet becomes the "in" thing. I know it's selfish of me but could we keep this "secret" to ourselves.
Great work as always Shawn. Awesome story David, great job guy.
8:02 i've been carnivore since January 1 of 2024 and I feel amazing. I've been trying to get my adult children and my grandchildren to go carnivore. My oldest son has had severe depression because he found out of a couple of years ago. he was diabetic type two and lost part of his foot and December 2023 he got another infection in his leg and just a month ago half of his other foot he finally was willing to give the carnivore way of eating a try and less than two weeks after the surgery the wound nurse was very impressed with the fact that he already had new bone growing and was healing at an astronomical rate i'm glad to see that he is finally excited to see what this way of eating can do for him and I love that he gets lots of compliments from people asking what he's doing different because his skin looks different. His attitude is different and he feels so much better, I can tell his depression is getting better. He calls me every day now thank you so much.
My first husband was an officer in the Marines. He had never been overweight and was a serious gym goer. He basically lived on meat, fish, eggs, green vegetables ..... Every two weeks he had a down time from Friday evening to Sunday lunch. Friday evening with the boys (often a few drinks and an Indian meal) and Saturday night dinner out with me ..... Sunday lunch was traditional roast meat with roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings, stuffing. By Sunday night he would be on two fried eggs. His biggest problem was keeping weight on! However, he always had excellent readings at his medical check ups.
Semper Fi
Hint: Roast potatos are not meat. 🙂
Karel ..... Sunday Lunch would be part of his downtime ..... By Sunday night he would be back on his meat, fish, eggs. He actually had to do a fortnightly down time and open up his diet because he lost too much weight staying on his regular diet ..... His job was super physical and he worked out every day. Additionally, dry rations don't work on a carnivore diet 😆
Corey ..... This brought back so many happy memories 😊
@@Karel8X A bit of carbs is fine. Only good quality, non-GMO, organic, unprocessed, complex carbs. 10% or less per day. Maintain high animal fats for mitochondrial integrity aka energy metabolism.
BP back to normal. No longer pre-diabetic. Weight loss from 88.7kg to 75.3kg. Beer belly gone. Love handles gone. Medication for hypertension no longer needed. I look better, feel better. Age 71. Carnivore for 3 months. Weekly diet: 3 tins of sardines (in water), two mackerel, 1kg Chuck steak ( here in the UK it's called braising steak), 15 eggs, chicken thighs/legs, lambs liver, pork belly strips, 20% fat ground beef and pure butter. Two litres of water (from tap). Cost: per week £32.00 (USD40)
Wow, incredible transformation
He looks like a different person,
Great video dr. Baker.
I’m 42 years old and I’m carnivore. I’ve never seen definition in my abs but I’ve got it now! Feels great.
Wow congratulations! I hope I get there
I am a month into carnivore, and I feel the best in years. My quality of sleep improved 100% I wake up with no alarm which is crazy for me because I'm not a morning person, I'm losing weight from 262 to 254, my skin is about 75% clear, my inflammation is gone I don't take anti-acids anymore, blood pressure is no longer acting up and I'm full of energy, anxiety, depression gone! basically, every symptom that has been haunting me for years is either gone or in the process of disappearing. Before anybody knocks this way of living try it! it made me a believer. More people need to know about this way of life.
I'm 43 years old, pre-diabetic, high blood pressure, military service related PTSD, panic disorder, anxiety, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis flare-ups , and all kinds of arthritic pain and sciatica pain. I'm now 20 days in to the carnivore diet and I don't think I will ever go back . I'm already down. 21.2 lb. I can't believe I'm actually saying that number. I've been paying free since about the 3rd or 4th day. GI issues have been minimal if not entirely gone, but most surprisingly my mental health issues have improved greatly. They're not perfect. They're not gone. But they're better than I could have expected. This diet really is amazing. Thank you doc. That's guys like you that have literally pulled me out of the hell I was living in to already being much happier person just 20 days in
Thank you for the show. My wife and I both started on this carnivore eating plan thanks to my brother. One week I lose 12 pounds and feeling more alive.
I had a lot of success with Keto about 5 years ago, I was strict with my intermittent fasting & went from around 265 down to the high 190's. I had cut out alcohol & was working out almost everyday or playing some form of basketball, always in a fasted state. I know the activity level helped make it happen, now I'm trying out carnivore & unfortunately I can't workout like I did 5 yeras ago because of a knee injuty (& no access to a basktball court either), I peaked at just short of 270 & i'm slowly getting down into the 250's. Carnivore is tough when traveling, but it needs to be a lifestyle choice, not a fad diet that you just do here & there. I'm looking forward to getting back down to the low 200's again.
If in hotels, check if they have rowing machines, free weights.
Put more tallow in your meat. The fat will help you go longer without food when fasting. I’ve lost 6kgs in 1 week. I eat OMAD carnivore (high fat, less protein) and i walk or do home workout. I started carnivore this month on 2nd November.
2:38 LISTEN UP DOUBTERS!! If you think this guy was exaggerating, think again. I was in constant pain, due to inflammation, for 3 years. My elbows, knees, feet and gums. after less than 2 weeks on the carnivore diet ALL my inflammation was gone!! It's that SIMPLE and that QUICK!!!! Each time I told a doctor, or a friend/doctor about the pain I'm having, they'd recommend steroid injections. That's it!!! I never took an injection because they told me that I'd be more susceptible to injury and that I'd need another one in a few months!!! Not a single one of them asked me about my diet!!! Doctors study medicine, not nutrition and diets!
Im already 3 months on carnivore and my arthritis in the hands is still there. Other joint pain also. I wish it would be so simple to heal for everybody but it isn't. I don't eat dairy and don't drink coffee.
@@geertruivanbroekhoven7209 Can you give me a rundown of what you typically eat each day (it should be simple and short), also, are you taking any medications, drugs, drink, smoke, supplement, seed-oils, alternative sugars etc...? I'm sorry to hear you haven't improved but this shouldn't be the case. I'm trying to understand
@@geertruivanbroekhoven7209 Something your are eating/drinking or taking must be the culprit. Arthritus is a auto-immune inflammation disease so study up n that.
@@David-R. somehow I missed your message. I was eating meat (all kind), some fish and eggs. Herbal mint tea, sometimes coffee ( rarely) or decaf and sparkling water. I think nerves in my hands have been damaged because they tied me up too hard for an operation (I didn't know they do that, they tie you to the operating table). When I came out of narcosis I couldn't use my hands. They denied it happened and I had to deal with it on my own. Nine years later still pain. I don't drink any cafeine anymore and no more sparkling water (blocks vitb b2 which is crucial for nerves. Helped a bit.
@@geertruivanbroekhoven7209 I'm sorry you had to go through this. And F** the medical system btw.
It's amazing how sometimes taking one thing out of your diet can change everything!! Each one of us could be allergic to something, but no one is allergic to red meat with its fat (Unless you were unlucky and got bit by a lone star tic).
Jordan Peterson's daughter (I think her name is Mikhaila) had to cut out EVERYTHING and literally can't eat anything but red meat or else her health will suffer. That just goes to show that red meat, salt and water is the best elimination diet possible!! If you had the strength and willingness to experiment, I'd go strict for a few weeks and see what happens, then you can reintroduce ONE ingredient at a time to find out your personal culprit.
I agree with @jax-zm1bb with what he said. I wish you the best of luck and I hope for you to heal completely and have a happy-pain-free life because you deserve it.
I too have noticed the muscle definition and toning. Carnivore is proper human behaviour.
Stumbled upon this video at 1 month in to my Carnivore journey. Just as my discipline feels like it's wavering. This is giving me a renewed drive to stay with it. I'm 22 pounds down already! Excited to power through and keep improving as a person for my family. Thanks for the tremendous videos!
Was keto for several months & dropped ~15lbs, migraines went away, carpal tunnel went away, lots of other aches & pains cleared up about 80%. Just started carnivore the 1st of September and excited to see the results!
You will love it, the mental clarity alone is worth it!
Good luck, and send updates!
My carpal tunnel went away too, after 2 decades of pain. 🎉
I broke my tibia bone near my ankle and was put in a walking boot. I was told that at 68 years old I would be in the boot for 6 to 8 weeks and then need PT for a month to heal this fracture. At my 4 week appointment I was taken out of the boot and put in a light weight lace up ankle brace. 5 weeks after my fracture I was playing golf and now at 7 weeks have stopped wearing my brace. Carnivore does help a body heal quicker. I also never had to take any pain meds during my recovery.
Very informative! I recently switched to a strict ketogenic diet with some cheese, eggs and minimal vegetables. I stopped all fruits as well. Am lowering my diabetes medications due to my glucose readings sometimes being too low. I’m confident that I will eventually be able to eliminate all of my Glyburide and Insulin medications. The same is true with my blood pressure medications as well. I have lost over 30 lbs. in the 4 months since I started this adventure 😊 Thanks for your advice and informative videos. I appreciate your hard work putting these together.
As long as you do not have LADA, you should be able to remove meds.
I’d work on getting rid of the Glyburide first, due to the side effects.
When on insulin only, you can gradually lower the dose yourself.
Anyone on insulin should know how to adjust their dosages.
If you have a cgm that is useful.
If not, checking blood sugar with lancet and metre enough is important.
Better to have slightly high readings than to low. Don’t worry about high morning sugars they eventually go normal as you get healthier. I am off all my insulin and meds . Just be careful not to take to many meds. Good luck
I’m on week 7. Down 25-30 lbs. I was drinking DrPepper 4-5 times a day. My meals consisted of cookies and popcorn with a few batter fried chicken wings.
WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?
Steak bacon butter and eggs now.
It took about 1 week to stop missing the sugar.
I am so hyped!
Go Doug Go! That’s my Mantra now.
I basically resigned myself that I was gonna die a fat, unhappy miserable man, who was living an unbearable, uncomfortable existence a mere 4 months ago.
My weight had ballooned up 306 lbs and at 6' tall, my 44-inch waist was indicating some serious visceral adiposity. I would joke with my kids that I was the US version of Yasin Sengus, if any of you watch TikTok you know who that is.
I had no energy, my legs were stiff and sore all of the time. Getting up from the couch was a challenge. Just raising my leg high enough to get out of my car was becoming excruciatingly difficult. Walking from the parking lot to the store was just plain awful, it took a couple minutes of moving for my joints to warm up just to walk that far. I had severe sleep apnea and even with the BiPAP I was always exhausted in the morning. Dark circles under my eyes. My sex life was just awful. I couldn't even get it up with 100 mgs of Sildenafil. You can imagine the wife was none too pleased about this one.
There were a few times when the wood boiler would go out last winter because I just did not have the energy to get off the couch to go outside to stoke the fire to keep it going, which was not good when it was -15 degrees.
I had this intermittent but extremely sharp inflammation pain in my left foot that felt like a knife stabbing me and twisting when I would put my weight on it. Whenever this pain happened my ankle and foot would be stiff and painful for two days after and I would limp constantly because of it. I also had this body fungus on my belly and chest for years.
On May 5th of this year, I decided that it was take the chance and try carnivore for 30 days or slowly degrade and die before I turn sixty in the next 10 years. So, I went carnivore cold turkey that morning and have never looked back.
As of today, all of the complaints I mentioned above are either completely gone or barely noticeable anymore. My weight went from 306 to currently under 240. I'm not sure what my weight is at the moment, I don't have a scale, but a week and 1/2 ago it was 240. My waist went from 44 to 36.
My leg inflammation is completely gone now. No more apnea. My wife is smiling again. If it hadn't of been for you Doc, I would be waiting to die still. I make it my personal mission to tell everyone what my "Big" secret is.
If I meet an obese person ,I tell them that they don't have to live like this...
Edit in some paragraph breaks to make it more readable.
Thank you for sharing your amazing transformation! So glad you took the risk to go carnivore and so glad it worked for you!
Sadly I know so many people with your story and they won’t even listen to the idea that their diet is the problem
Congratulations. That’s great to hear!

Glad you are off of it.
I was told I have arthritis, and I didn’t doubt it since I had been a dental hygienist for more than 20yrs…I was resigned to being a gimp for the rest of my life- then carnivore! I originally started because I was sick and tired of reflux. After 1 week, my shoulder pain is no more, my chronic plantar fasciitis is gone, my reflux is gone too!!!
I wouldn't call carnivore a diet, I'd call it a lifestyle.
That's what I call it
Tuesday will be one month- not too hard to eat this way - experiencing some detox symptoms and maybe candida burn out
Lost 6 pounds but lost 2 inches in waist and arthritis gone working on bp and sleep now
Keep going
In 2022, I was about 310. Last time I weighed about a month ago I was down to 260. Proof this carnivore diet thing is working for me. The jacket I bought in April wouldn't fit. Couldn't even get it close enough to zip up. Just for the heck of it, this morning I tried it again. It FIT and I had no problem zipping it, and it wasn't even tight around the waist when I got into the car this morning! I'm 64, and 5' 4", and would love to get down below 200 by the end of the year.
I love eating carnivore! But I occasionally slip up and eat a sweet and it reactivates my carb addiction. Kelly Hogan just put out a video on how to break the addiction.
That was a great video!
The information about the rotator cuff is so interesting. I was vegan for 18 months. I got what I thought was frozen shoulder. It was so painful. To try to reach behind me to put on a coat or a seatbelt brought tears to my eyes. I had it in one shoulder, it slowly went away then got it in the other shoulder. Not to mention all my other health issues. Carnivore has healed everything for me.
Horrible, I had 2 torn rotator cuffs a few years ago. Very painful at their worst!
I keep reading and hearing this kind of stories and I love it. But you know what's interesting? I never heard about anyone doing that in the opposite direction. More and more vegans turn carnivore, but no carnivores turn vegan. That tells us everything we need to know.
I can relate, I've also have had the frozen shoulders & ankle issues where I'd have to shuffle my feet getting out of bed in the morning.. Absolutely awful. I wasn't a vegan but have been a gardener for years with amazing vegetables. I ate so many high oxalate veggies that I believe I was poisoning myself. I was doing supper smoothies with kale, spinach, beet greens, almond butter etc. Eating a bunch of tomatoes, peppers, sweet potatoes etc. My inflammation got so bad I couldn't take my granddaughter for walks. It was difficult to get up of the floor and climb steps. Awful. Being on carnivore changed all of this. I workout, walk miles, run up & down steps. No more shoulder problems or ankle issues or inflammation. It's amazing. Im so happy for your results too. Have a wonderful day 😊❤️
@anitawi2309 Happy ending, thanks for sharing!
@@anitawi2309That's awesome, so glad to hear! God bless!
Lost 10lbs in 2 months on Carnivore, insomnia and anxiety gone, my chronic sinus inflammation is half-healed (can smell and taste on and off, contrary to nothing for 10+years), but I've been losing my gym strength though. Hope it will come back!
Some people switch from carnivore to ‘animal-based’ and re-introduce fruits prior to workouts to help with energy levels at the gym. Remember the point of it is to eat like our ancestors ate that occurred naturally. Hunters/gatherers ate fruit too when they came across it, just not as frequently as meat which was more plentiful year-round for obvious reasons.
@@JK-td4hi I can't have fruits. It makes my sinuses go insane unfortunately, drives my insulin right up, insomnia comes right back. And there are plenty of people who do even better at the gym on carnivore. Been better since I started adding electrolytes to my filtered water.
Awesome video enjoying your interview
Keep up the good work Doc😊
This is amazing! Thank you Dr. Baker!
Where is the guy from thumbnail?
Thanks!
These stories just keep totally cemented in my carnivore way of LIVING!!
I love my diet. It's so freaking easy. I don't even have to cook breakfast I just Crack 6 eggs into a cup and drink them and have a ribeye for lunch and a couple of chicken breasts dipped in butter for dinner. I feel great. It's so weird because my stomach use to get bloated and feel like a rock and stuck out and just after a month of eating the exact same thing my stomach is flat and feels empty even when I'm full It's hard to explain the feeling but it feels like I don't even have anything in my stomach and I can run like a hundred yards and not even breath hard where before I was getting winded just walking to my truck from the front door. I use to get major headaches every single day and eat aleve like candy just to calm it down. On this diet I haven't had a headache since the second week on the carnivore diet it seamed like the headaches increased when my body went through a carb withdrawal and one day I just woke up and felt clear headed. Dude this is real. Why didn't I learn this earlier? My clothes are falling off me and I gotta get some that fit me now.
Looking forward, this is excellent ❤
Great results!
I'm hoping that will be my story. I've been doing this since Jan. 1, 2024. I'm still suffering, daily GI issues, which I never had before on any other diet, but I am hopeful & pushing through it. I get really bad acid reflux, burping up sour, acidic taste., which is awful. I have never had that before either. Weight is NOT falling off. I'm hopeful it will, because my BMI is terrible, I just want people to know that for some of us, for what ever reason, this is NO piece of cake, & not to expect a quick fix of everything at once. I think that for some of us, it will take more time. I am 70 & if it wasn't for some improvements I've noticed, I wouldn't have continued. The IMPROVEMENTS are: I have noticed brain fog lift & mental clarity improve. My mood is better. I'm beginning to sleep longer stretches at a time & not waking up every couple of hours. My blood pressure has dropped to the Perfect range & I'm not exercising, yet. I am not being woken up at night anymore, in tears, from my pins & needles, falling asleep, throbbing, painful hands. My left has healed the most. My right hand is improving greatly. I can type this without stopping every couple of seconds to shake my numb hands out. I can sleep on my right side longer, before my hand falls asleep. These improvements help me push through the GERD & bathroom issues like burning butt. This way of eating does have some obstacles, but I intend to keep pushing through & pray these side affects eventually subside. The carnivore diet is very simple to implement, & satisfying. I like the simplicity. I admit I have had a couple of cheats, only to find out that I don't want or even like what I had anymore, like the rolls at the Texas Road House. They tasted awful to me & I used to like them more than the steak. No more, ha ha! I'm trying to get my husband on carnivore as well. So far he is not interested in giving up all his junk food. I hope to be an inspiration to him. Good luck everyone. Be Persistent & Consistent. That's my motto to keep me going.
Are you eating dairy?
If so, stop for a week or so and see if that helps the digestion and weight loss.
I love cheese and sour cream but if I eat them I don't lose weight.
Also, if you drink coffee try to get off coffee and see if that helps. Drink some black tea to help with caffeine withdraw and then after about a week stop the tea also.
@@bahba9247 Thank you for the tips.
@@pearlhall3787 You're welcome. Best of luck to you!
love these success stories, keeps me motivated to continue carnivore!
This is just pure dominance !
I would love to see one of these types of videos once a week or so. It helps me keep focused on my goals of losing weight and getting healthy. Thanks.
Thanks for the information, doctor.
I'm from South Africa. Luvin your enlightening information about health and PROPER human nutrition. I'm currently 2 weeks into carnivore and already feeling the benefits in my gut microbiome. Suffered for years. Distressing symptoms all but gone. Thank you and keep up the excellent work
I’ve been on carnivore for just over a week now, loving it, never hungry, weight loss is steady. Hoping to see improvement in inflammation. I do have an incurable brain tumour but I’m feeling really energised, my gym sessions are improving daily, lifting heavier. Who knew this would happen 😂 onwards & upwards
Great anecdote. The power of a proper diet.
Yep, no produce, no supplements. We got a big freezer and we’re filling it up! I love it, it is so simple.
I have been off and on keto for about 5 or 6 years now. When I first started keto It was really boring for me to do because I was always on the go with my job and so little things were keto friendly and I got bored of the same simple prep meals I would make for the day and dinner. I did lose a lot of weight. I was 285lbs at 5'11 with a 42 inch waist. I have always had pretty dense muscle and bone structure so I was always heavier than I looked. Even my navy Recruiter said I would need to get a waiver when I was in college because of my weight being so much more than what they deemed "normal" for my height. Anyway Fast forward about 25+ years later and the last 15 year I have been fluctuating between 275 and 290. Before I started this careery path I am now which I started about 15 years ago I had always been a gym rat, loved lifting weights. But with this Career path I am on it really made working out on a regular basis hard for me and for a while I was making it work but then I slowly got out of habit and lost my motivation to lift. Even today I find it very hard to get the motivation to lift and I even have a decent home set up. But I started Keto about 6 or so years ago and when ever I get religiously on it I feel so much better. Back and neck do not ache as much ( from high school football and Rowing team) I also just do not feel as inflamed as much and I sleep so much better. I dropped about 35 lbs when I first got on to keto and when ever I stop it slowly comes back. However I have been having a hard time replicating my first results. I am back on Keto when I tipped the scales at 293 and I am down to about 275-277ish. However I am having a hard time getting past that now.
I want to go to a strict carnivore diet however I take care of my elderly mother ( onset minor dementia at 89 and I also take care of my Brother with Down Syndrome. So I have to also cook for them and it I can do keto for all of us for the most part, but I am not sure how well going carnivore would do in regards to making dinners for all of us that are carnivore friendly because Both of them have issues chewing certain foods that might require a bit more chewing. Fish and tender chicken breasts cooked right are ok, but Pork chops, and steak I am just not sure how that would go. Anyway I really want to get at the very minimum on a more strict keto diet if not lean in more to Carnivore. I think Brain health it might do both me and my mother better. Plus I need to get back to lifting again. I always felt the best when I was lifting but the motivation is just not there and I am not sure if it because of a lack of testosterone because I am not 49 or what.
Anyway Thanks for all you do!
I cook most of my steaks and chops in a slow cooker for around 6 hours, they melt in your mouth.
@@deskjockie4948 Never thought about steak in a slow cooker!
I've been getting chuck eye steaks and they are ok....lots cheaper than rib eyes but def not as good and some have been a bit too tough. I'll try the slow cooker.
Dude. Youre brighter red than my tail lights
Ancestor appropriate, species specific, species appropriate Proper Human Diet. (Who would've known?.... 😄)
I messed my back up in Afghanistan ended up needing a lumbar fusion. Still had chronic pain and they recommended more surgery. I find that my pain is much more manageable on a carnivore diet. Losing 30 lbs certainly helps.
Ty so much, info helping me getting in shape
Carnivore for life I will never go back.
And since he mentioned it I have also cut my grocery shopping bills in half
That’s awesome he’s feeling so well! That’s amazing, and this is more evidence that carnivore diet heals and returns humans back to their natural state of optimal health!
I love dogs- definitely a dog person, and I have mine going carnivore! They love ground beef the most!
Wonderful he is one of your coaches! I am interested in joining your team! Not sure if you are taking in more people for that.
Have a great day Dr. Baker! ☺️🌴
I cry when ever i think of all the suffering my loved ones endured & their premature deaths.
Gone too soon!!
Now it's cattle ranchers & meat eaters vs big pharma & big foods!!
Take it to the White House!!
Take it to the streets!!

So the after picture wasn't shown in the video......was this really the person the video is about? The guy in the video didn't look like he was that lean.
I like your tutorial during the video.
I went from vegan to keep to now trying g strict carry. Other than a Lil sugar drop today I have been feeling great when I fast then eat meat every 2 days.
Been on carnivore for 4 months. Had a weekend of carbs, noticed both ankles on alternate days ached. Went straight back on carnivore.
Hey Dr. Baker, I appreciate all you do to help people learn how to become healthy through changing their eating habits. I don't really call carnivore a diet, but I refer to it as my lifestyle or way of eating, and I explain to people what it has done for my health. I was on blood pressure medicine, 37 pounds heavier, had erectile dysfunction, was severely depressed, to the point that I was ready for my life to end. Had bad anxiety, on Prozac, and had gout problems, along with other issues. I went keto for 6 months, and found you, Dr. Chaffee, Dr. Berry and a few others that led me on my way to carivore. I no longer take anything for anxiety or depression, don't need blood pressure meds, and I have much less joint pain. I'm a male, 54 years old, 5'9" tall, waist is now 32", and my weight is now 156 lbs. I would be honored to join your coaching team if you are looking for other coaches. If so, how would I get in contact with you or your team?
Keep up the good work😊
It’s pretty easy to understand. The proof is in the pudding. ❤
Thank you Dr. Baker
With beef you can reach your true potential. Believe it!
I 2nd that! 👍
Hey Dr. Baker I have been listening to you videos and will try this. I’m 50 years old 6’-2” male was very active up till 35 (a household mover) and went into an office setting when at my heaviest I reached 480 lbs. I have struggled for years to get weight off and keep it off. I’m currently at 440 lbs. and I was diagnosed with fatty liver, and sleep apnea, years back but most recently with type 2 diabetes, not to mention the chronic pain and depression. Thanks and I’ll keep you posted.
Why the phony pictures on your cover??
I like that the financial aspect is discussed, along with the health benefits.
Alot of people I speak to have the idea that carnivore is expensive, bit I have noticed, personally, that I'm spending less overall, and I eat some thick fatty ribeye almost every day.
It could be even cheaper if I ate more ground beef, eggs etc.
Amazing example. That k you for the content!
Shawn, i have to say, i LOVE your shirt!!
Going on week number two. Yes! it's amazing energy I thought I would never have again and my body pain gone. Hooked for life thanks so much for all youtubers out there getting the word out about carnivore. I also have three family members doing it with very good results as well.
So, what exactly are you eating?? Any dairy? Cream in coffee is one of my downfalls. 🤥
no dairy coffee beef butter eggs with salt that's it the whole cream messed me up so I stopped it@@donnamanning6286
