I agree! I lost weight initially but then I was having a ton of butter in my coffee and whipped cream and such and I gained the weight back. As soon as I cut that stuff back out, I lost even more weight than when I first went Keto. Calories add up really quickly! And it's easy to get fat naturally in the foods you're eating through meat etc.
We older women need exercise so much ,I agree with you . If I don’t exercise I get stiff and can’t do as much , I practise high steps and jumping off heights to keep me strong and agile
I joined your group for January 2025. I’ve been Carnivore for 4 years and keep seeing my weight go up. I believe it’s the fat, dairy and decaf coffee. I stopped that as of today and am following your Carnivore Weight loss plan now. Thanks Maria for the love you send out by telling truth❤
Been keto over 5 years now, just switched to ketovoire. I have never ate as much fat as was told. I always felt if you eat too much, you’re going to burn dietary fat opposed to stored fat. Glad to hear the protein angle….
My mom was 100 lbs overweight injured her knee after a fall. This was 2 yrs ago she lost some weight then started walking and exercising. She's 68 now in great shape went from not walking to doing boot camp style work out classes. Excersize is good not bad.
So excited to listen to this video. Just watched and learned about FSMF the other day, as I was curious. Have been eating a lot of butter which was fine for awhile, cause I started carnivore underweight, lean and fit, and post menopausal, to fix symptoms like no sleep and hot flashes. Wanted desperately to gain muscle mass but recently after a year and a half, started feeling fat gain, as well. Did FSMF yesterday and woke up already feeling lean again. So glad I circled back to you and watched your FSMF video with you and hubby. Have watched Bronson before and love him too. I feel there's more light at the end of this tunnel. I like being super lean with muscle and no flab. Had chubby days in my youth, UGH. I'm 60 and like feeling youthful. THANK YOU!!! ALOHA!!
I heard all the "excuses" on a fat carnivore diet if you don't loose weight and in the end it is the clients fault. Excuses from: first you need to heal, carnivore is not a weightless diet, maybe you gained muscle, just eat more fat (is good for your hormones and thyroid, and only with the fat what is fuel and low protein you can loose weight). I waisted over a year. In the mean time I saw the protein content and didn't want to believe it, but it works. Always happy with all your content THNX!
I read it only now 7 months later, I think the same happened to me. I am right now waking up regarding the fat consume. I had the same experience as you. I learned about Maria only a few days ago.
@@insahoffmann2437me too. I tried high fat, and gained weight. Afraid to eat more protein, because it will turn to carbs in gluconeogenesis... confusing, right?😊
Don't feel bad, I've wasted three years trying to heal my autoimmune (Lupus) on high fat carnivore. I guess I have to blame myself. I mean what's the definition of insanity?! Right?! I should have changed my ways after the first year or two lol. We got this now!!
This was the best conversation I’ve seen since being on my keto/carnivore journey! Thank you so much. Solved ALOT of confusion that is in the carnivore community discussions at the moment. Thank you 🙏
Hi from Aus. I was one of those people overeating keto. Honestly I thought I’d read some good resources prior to finding you but nothing changed until I started following the macros on your calculator. I was shocked to see how much I was overeating gosh. Now 2 weeks into refining the macros and slipping in some PSMF, most of my inflammation is gone and can quite comfortably exercise AND recover better and faster than before. Can’t wait to see where this goes. Thank you so much 🙏
@Dan but are you ever HUNGRY/like starving? I can lose weight on any diet but I will be starving to death on most of them so hence them not being sustainable for me.
I was brainwashed eating a stick of butter per day. Did it for nearly a month and my body told to me to STOP! Was nauseous all the time with blood sugar rollercoster. I’m so happy I found you!
Thanks for having Coach Dant on the show. He's the Man! Watching Maria in Hawaii brings back fond memory. My siblings and I grew up on Maui. As an endurance athlete, I've been completely fat-adapted for well over a year, thanks to carnivore. I run 100 miles a week (plus do battle ropes and kettlebells) on nothing but water and LMNT. BTW I'm 61 y.o. Thanks for all you do, Maria :-)
I can’t eat a meal before working out at the gym, but I need something. I don’t eat fake protein shakes. I’m allergic to milk. So my pre workout is a cup of bone broth with a tablespoon of butter and MCT oil. This gives me the energy to push through a hard workout. Without it, I get dizzy and light headed at the gym. Can’t workout as hard, and am wrecked afterwards for most of the day.
I think they say ‘Comfortably stuffed’ which is hard to decide for many people. I think the reasoning behind that, similar to ‘priming’ is because the people coming straight into keto/carnivore are used to always eating for their previous many decades so constantly on the hunt for food. They almost need to feel sick-full for 10-20 minutes after a meal to wake them up to realize what full actually feels like when using protein & fat only.
I get that. But it is an extremely problematic suggestion considering the massive rates of obesity and food addiction in this country. There is no way to quantify "comfortably stuffed." What is comfortably stuffed to me might not look the same to you and we all have very different needs. If weight loss or healing are goals we always suggest prioritizing protein and macro tracking 💪
I've just found you guys, I've seen Dr Ali talk about it- You've made it so clear, I'm working on my building muscle and not adding fat,I know now what to do , thank you so much ❤
I did they eat one hungry eat till full thing and it worked for me very well. I think everybody’s different because the way you talk is not me that’s not how I have been doing it and it has worked for me.
I can’t do electrolytes. I tried the element tea and I love it, but it just made my face so puffy. I am just one of those people that cannot do electrolytes I don’t ever feel heavy. I don’t ever feel crampy I don’t ever feel lightheaded or weak. I never feel like I need electrolytes. I guess I’m just lucky that way everybody’s answer for everything is electrolytes and for some people it is not.
That's awesome! I, on the other hand, need like 2 a day. Otherwise I get tired and dehydrated really fast. I had bells palsey a few years back and have had reoccurring numbness in my chin and blurred vision when I'm dehydrated. It's bizzar. And yes, I've had it looked into and nothing has come from it.
@@hollybishop484 goes to show you how different everybody is. I’m literally going to talk to my doctor about this next month. I had too much salt yesterday. It was in my food. I did not add it and I am so swollen this morning. I’m already on a water pill I want to up the dose I don’t think it’s enough.
Really great conversation here! I get hung up on always being told I’m under eating. Like my 1350 calories with protein prioritized, it’s said to not be enough, when trying to lose weight. This is where I’ve had to test it out myself.
thank you on that comment with adding salt when feeling constipaded on PSMF days. This has been my problem the entire time. I tend to feel constipaded when eating a low fat carnivore way ... i also struggle with corisol and suddenly high blood pressure. but only like for an hour and then it passes... i don´t know why this is... but it just occurs sometimes. I went from 83kg down to 73kg but now have stalled at 75kg... I will try to go more into a low fat way of eating now for most days during the week and see how that goes
Thank you for this! I started following you years and years ago, then was diagnosed with RA and thought I needed to go vegan (ruined my health even more). Now I’ve been back keto/carnivore for a couple of years but was still having trouble knowing how much fat:protein I should eat even after using your macro calculator. I was also recently diagnosed with CIRS - the brain fog is real so that may have been why I was having trouble understanding. I am an appropriate weight but have always had excess fat around hips and thighs (may also be due to CIRS) and this finally cleared everything up for me! Thank you, thank you!
50:45 trick your thyroid?? What do you mean Maria!? Please tell me more! I'm trying to get rid of a thyroid nodule so you mentioning this is very interesting for me!!! And also...if you could do an entire video talking about thyroid it would be so so great!!!
Fasting and Carnivore stopped my HUGE autoimmune disorder, 25 plus years of severe depression and anxiety in its tracks! I would have to disagree about fasting. 2 meals in a 6 hr period has worked really well for healing me. Not so much for weight loss but thats okay with me. That will eventually come.
Having a 6 hour eating window isn't really fasting although it's called intermittent fasting. I think fasting is 24 hours or longer which is what Maria is on about disagreeing with.
I’m just so confused on all the different ways of carnivore. I was on a program called optavia for over a year. I lost over 100 lbs doing that program. Eating every 3 hours of their product 5 times a day and one lean and green meal a day. Which consist of 4 to 7 grams of lean meat and 3 servings of veggies. I stopped the program a month ago because I wanted to stop eating prepackaged bio engineered food, and try carnivore. I’ve been eating the BBBE everyday and I just run to the bathroom right after every meal. I seen other videos saying eat butter eat butter . Ugh that’s not working lol. I have 30lbs I want to lose but actually I’m gaining weight. I’m going backwards. I seen you on another video with another person saying eat lean meats like Turkey , chicken, fish 3 days a week and then have a fat day. I’m gonna try that starting today. 😊 So should I go back to eating a small amount of vegetables that are low carb as well or not eat any veggies? I heard vegetables are trying to kill us from dr. Chaffee . So confused about this way of eating🤷♀️🤦♀️ hope you can help. I’ll watch all your videos to see what I can do.
Any "diet" will yield weight loss if the calorie deficit is significant enough. Remember the guy who lost weight eating only Twinkies? It's about prioritizing lean protein so you do not lose precious lean mass as you burn unwanted fat off the body. You can eat a small amount of low carb vegetables if you want and can tolerate them, but you should always prioritize lean animal protein. Protein is the macro goal you want to meet or exceed daily. Fat and carbs are LIMITS. I do not recommend BBBE as it is way too high fat and too low on protein in most cases for sparing lean mass and optimizing fat loss off the body. The more fat you consume, the more you will store for later use :) ua-cam.com/video/mk7kPVdk8JU/v-deo.html
@@MariaEmmerich thank you for your response. Yes , I did lose a lot of muscle mass during the year I was on Optavia. Happy I lost the weight but it surely wasn’t the healthiest way I don’t believe but I was desperate to feel better. I have thyroid issues I’ve been dealing with started back in 2011 . I have a goiter on the right side of
Oops sorry I hit the send before I finished my comment. Anyway, I certainly appreciate your help responding. You’re a beautiful lady and I look forward to following you and learning from you. I believe I found somebody I’m here I can trust. I’m going to check out your books as well.😊❤️
I barely eat fat and do protein shake in morning probably eat too much protein 150 grams or so i weigh around 105 but my body craves and loves protein.
How did I miss this? So great to have you all discuss! Thank you. I'm sure it's a bit late to ask, but I would love to know how Maria makes her morning Equip protein breakfast shake. I just made my THIRD batch of Pumpkin Protein Bars that you put out last week!! Delicious!
I avoid salt. I’m salt sensitive and I’m even on a water pill and I still swell up so bad if I have salt. I avoid it like everything. My face gets puffy my hands get puffy. If I keep my diet as bland as possible, I’m fine. And I never feel like I need a Electrolytes. I do salt my steak and my eggs a tiny bit but I avoid anything that has salt because the next day is miserable for me.
@@MariaEmmerich my labs were very good in January. Only issue was low potassium. I feel great. But any suggestions on raising it? I’m 90 plus percent carnivore. Veggies make my joints ache and I don’t want the carbs from fruit. I need the last 20 pounds off. I don’t weigh but drs office has me at 172 I’m a size 10/12.
Great interview! I have been a carnivore for a year now. Gained 25 lbs through priming and eating Carnivore WOE. I was told to eat a stick of butter and as much as protein until satiated. I’m so sad that I’m unable to lose that stupid 25 lbs.
Adding a stick of butter is the worst idea for weight loss. Almost all the fat you eat ends up in your fat cells. So how does this help you lose fat? It makes no sense. Get proper macros here and you will do great! mariamindbodyhealth.com/calculator/
@@MariaEmmerich thank you so much ! By the way , I love love your hair. I printed the PSMF and fast fat loss macros . I will definitely follow it. ❤️ stay safe in Bali and have fun.
I must be a freak. I am lean and gained strength in my lifts when I switched to a higher fat ratio. Also gained muscle. I average 100-110 grams of protein, which is over the 1 lb per lean mass for me. But, it’s the higher fat that did the trick for me. Demonstrates how our needs are unique.
I found the same. I started carnivore lean, am a lean mass hyper responder cholesterol-wise & am almost 2 years carnivore. If I lower my fat, my blood sugars go up & I gain with high protein. I do about 80/20 fat/protein with a minimum 90 grams of protein. I use the x3 bar & do Pilates.
@@Gtlr123 It’s likely that genetics has a lot to do with how differently we respond. I have been researching the blood type diet. I was a vegetarian for over 15 years, and my health deteriorated. For B positive, some meat, such as lamb, is recommended. I am not convinced yet, but I am keeping an open mind.
If eating fat makes us gain weight as well what’s difference in eating carbs ??? It’s just confusing… so much conflicting info … I’ve tried focusing on protein and nothing changed … gonna try psmf .. but still questioning if should cut out carbs or eat low fat after 🤷♀️
If strictly speaking about weight loss, all that matters is that you are at a calorie deficit. That doesn’t make it healthy 🙏 What matters if you want to lose excess fat without wasting away precious lean mass, while enjoying stable blood sugar levels you need to prioritize lean animal protein, moderate dietary fat and significantly reduce carbohydrate intake ❤️ To kick start weight loss and healing the first and most important thing is to get your macros right.

Is butter coffee as the first ingested thing in the day, be detrimental to weight loss as it is not protein. Dr. Bright & Dr. Ken Berry both start their day this way
Amazing you! Love your info! But I am so confused about the higher protein and lower fat vs higher fats than protein! Am new on Carnivore Lyme disease and co-inhabitors have tried to destroy my body for most of my life and I wish I knew Carnivore! Much to repair after 66 yrs! I have tried it all now!
@@Angela, this is how I feel too! I’m just focusing on Maria’s videos for now (I was so confused watching everyone else!), and I can’t wait to get her cookbooks!! She makes so much sense, and is a beautiful soul. Thank you, Maria!! ❤❤
I eat 10 total grams or less of carbs a day. That was my question that Craig was answering about the sweet spot and the macros. I think I’m gonna go back to the calculator and try it one more time. I gained weight the first time. I feel like it’s a lot of calories for me. I’m 5” 8 1/2.
Calories don't matter if your hormones are dialed in. I've ate 4,000 calories in a day and lost weight and no others have done the same once you eliminate all the carbs
@@arthurfonzarelli9828 I think I have to probably agree with that. There was a time when I would eat 3000 cal as long as my macros were in check. But lately I think my hormones are out of whack. Had a dental procedure. They moved me up all kinds of steroids, antibiotics, etc. Had a cadaver bone put in my jaw. Been hard to get back on track since. I’ve been optimal top-notch for six years till now. I’ve been healthy, strict keto/carnivore … never sick never have had to take anything. I don’t even use fluoride. If it’s not clean keto, it doesn’t go into my mouth. Now that happened and instantly I just felt sick and I’ve never been able to bounce back.
That just isn’t true. Calorie do matter.my husband eats zero carbs and can gain and lose 10 pounds or more based on activity and eating patterns (holidays, etc). @CraigEmmerich
@@MariaEmmerich In the last 6 yrs of keto/ ketovore it’s been confusing for me, my hormones are also changing. BUT for me I think they do matter. I have had vertigo for almost 2 years. During this time I’m also not able to work out regularly:( Btw I’ve nvr had a cheat day. I’m super strict clean ketovore.I’ll nvr go back.
Hi Maria, I love your content. Question - I am 5'11 female and weigh about 126lbs and I eat A LOT of protein. I just find it so easy and don't need even use powders to make up the numbers and if anything I am overdoing it. My body fat % is about 22 and I am currently working on building muscle strength (like you😊) and body recomp. I try to aim for around 150g protein/ day but I usually go over and end up somewhere around 170-180g. Is this too much? I used to eat more fat but trying to dial it down to about 50-60g day to lose fat so my protein intake has shot up. Does this sound okay?
I guess and lucked out on not being obsessed with steak. I like it sparingly. It has never been my favorite meat. I have done keto off and on and finally decided to stop with the inconsistency so more ketovore these days. I plan to incorporate PSMF this coming week. My practical brain could never run with "eating until uncomfortably full." I feel like I'd already been doing that under the SAD most of my life. It seems unreasonable to me because being stuffed is literally overeating. I love butter and will cook with it, but eating sticks? Pass.
Great to hear this conversation. Do you both have any advice for me. I am prioritizing protein and finding it hard to digest after a few days of only meat. Feels like a rock in my gut. Any ideas?
You need to add hcl-pepsin. Most people are deficient in hydrochloric acid from eating a SAD. I suggest adding this: mariamindbodyhealth.com/hydrochloric-acid-with-pepsin/
What did coach Bronson mean when he said eating 120g of protein in one sitting is not ideal. He says that the body will max out at 60g and then it won’t know what to do with the rest. I don’t understand this .
Your body can only digest, absorb, and utilize a limited number of protein grams at a time. Best to divide your daily protein grams into 2 or 3 portions spread out over your eating window.
I did! I got the training part down pat being a drug free powerlifter world record holder, but this video will help me tweak my diet to lose these last 10-15 lbs. Thank you!
I'm new lost 12 pounds on 20 total carbs, have about 5 to go, still pre diabetic, labs are good, not fasting insulin, have a skinny cortisol body, still have a cortisol belly, what nook do I start with? I also have histamine intolerance so some foods I can't eat, please advise
This was so great! Please do again! Question in regards to minerals Craig & Maria....how does one really know if they are deficient in minerals? Hair analysis test, blood work, or both?
Ok ive been carnivore fod thhree years. My understanding to become fat adapted is eat.fatty meat. But alot of my carnivore beliefs have been high fat. So in regards to protien, whatscthe protocol fo become fat adapted. Just curious. Great video!
To become fat adapted you need to be in ketosis for several weeks or months. You do this by limiting carbohydrates to 20g total carbs or less per day 🙏
Ok, how many Carb can you have on carnivore? I like cottage cheese and sour cream. Both has carbs in them. I just eat as condiments and not as meal . So is it ok to have at least 15-20 grams of carbs a day from animal stuff?
@@coach.bronson thank you! Yes I workout (weights/strength training and running) 5 days a week and power walk on my "rest" days. AND I work with the amazing @maria emmerich
I never recommend drinking your calories. Always chew your food. It registers leptin better and is more satiating. Also, most protein powders do not give the most bioavailable nutrition. I only use egg white protein powder and Equip Prime Protein in my recipes because they are complete proteins: mariamindbodyhealth.com/equip-beef-protein-powder/
wow 26 years Maria? How old you are??? Amazing... Keto spared my Muscle mass, I gained, i eat not a lot of protein, fats about 100 grams, I eat what i feel. Thats easy. I go in the mountains, recovery is amazing on keto, people, thats amazing! I want lose only fat, about 2-3 kilo more, I will make Marias keto with Protein fast. :D I will give a try!
I’m so upset with my self I when off the keto for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I try hard to get back on keto . It’s so hard now. What I’m doing wrong.. 😢😢😢
What are your macros? Make sure you are getting enough protein, and keeping the fat intake a little lower when weight loss is a goal: mariamindbodyhealth.com/calculator/
I just went on your website to do the Macro calculator. The first thing at once is my weight I don’t know what my way is I don’t use a scale. Scale is a liar. It does not tell the truth.
People should target a monthly weight loss goal that is realistic. For example, a realistic goal for a woman who has 50 pounds to lose would be 4-5 pounds per month. If using PSMF and moderate fat starts peeling the weight off too quickly then that’s a good signal to ease up and eat more fat for a few days (go to maintenance). I think people lose site of the fact that this is a permanent change in eating, not a diet. There’s really no reason to try to drop the weight at an unsafe rate. Be realistic!
PSMF is just a tool. I never promote doing it any more than 1-3 days a week when large amounts of weight loss is a goal. And it is MUCH better than water fasts.
Now I'm confused. Protein isn't fuel but PSMF but don't eat fat but.... I need to research more. I don't count macros. I simply eat meat with occasional vegetables. I do eat dairy.
PSMF is just a fasting tool you can incorporate to speed up results when significant amounts of weight need to be lost. It is not a way of eating or intended for long term use.
This is very informative. But how can someone who can only eat beef (no fish, no dairy, no poultry, nothing, only beef and salt) achieve that macros? Is this even possible? I tried to put very lean beef into calculator and if I am to get to 140grams of protein, I will exceed fat and kcal intake for SPMF.
@@MariaEmmerich Then I'm going to try! I am a bit afraid because of everyone promoting high fat - but as initialy I felt so good on high fat, now I feel slugish and I lack energy, and upping my protein gives me that happy feelings inside :)
@@MariaEmmerich So I did my 1st day and I could not sleep at night ;) I woke up at 2am and just could not get back to sleep :O Is this a common issue? But weight started to go down! Miracle! :) I'm doing day 2! And I'm going to try it for a month (only 3 days a week offcorse! :)) I will come back with big thank you, and an update! Ah! One more question, okay 2 more questions - does Carnivore Cookbook covers PSMF? :) And do you wonderfull people found any cure for Acne? (100% carnivore, no coffee, no dairy, no eggs, nothing, and I still have terrible acne after almost 1 year :( ) Thanks!
Awesome! The sleep could just be a transition issue. There is some PSMF in that book. But the Protein Sparing books are much better for PSMF. keto-adapted.com/product-category/ebooks/ It might be worth trying a health assessment as there are some supplements that can help with acne. :) keto-adapted.com/product/assessment-form/
@@MariaEmmerich it's been a week! No more sleeping problems! :) I'm sticking to it until I achieve my weight goals. I feel so much better on high protein! How could I not see that high fat was making me sick and fat? :O Thank you Maria & Craig for beeing this voice of wisdom in the Keto/Carnivore community :) Now I can see how addicted I was to butter! And yea, addiction is a good word, cause I was getting angry when somone wanted to take it away from me :D Tommorow I will do my 1st refeed day. After a week it's easy to stay on 1200 kcal :) At first I was SOOOOO HUNGRY ;) I could bite my fingers off. But now? I am okay :) It's also easier to do exercise! :) I struggle to go for PSMF day's, but I managed to do 2 this week :) Tommorow I will do a re-feed, and next month I'm going to buy your book! :) I will check my weight in the monday and let you know about the progress. Also I think my acne is getting better :)
Would love your take on Dr. Jason Fung and how he has cured many people from multiple diseases with fasting, intermittent to extended. I hear so many people say they have felt great fasting and have cured so many issues letting their bodies go into autophagy.
There are some specific circumstances where extended fasting can definitely be a useful tool when managing certain conditions. But science shows that PSMF achieves as much or even better autophagy than extended fasting with much less loss in lean mass.

Hi there! Does it sometimes take a while for the PSMF days to kick in and work? I've been following macros from your calculator for a week including the PSMF and just keep bouncing around the same lb. up and lb. down lol. Is going through a few rounds going to activate the process a bit more? Thanks for any insights 💜
Many factors come into play here. I need a lot more information to help troubleshoot this. What is your gender, height and weight? What are your macros? How many PSMF days are you doing? How is your sleep? Are you having ANY dairy, nuts, gluten, or coffee (caffeine)? Are you tracking your meals, macros and electrolytes? And why are you weighing daily? The scale by itself is an extremely poor indicator for progress 🙏
I love ya!!! First time I hear, ketones not important :D I have also 0.3 about often, I thought is wrong... But i feel I burn fat, first - you burn fat, Beta oxidation yep? second when my body use ketones, there will be not a lot in blood. I love ya guys :D :
I agree! I lost weight initially but then I was having a ton of butter in my coffee and whipped cream and such and I gained the weight back. As soon as I cut that stuff back out, I lost even more weight than when I first went Keto. Calories add up really quickly! And it's easy to get fat naturally in the foods you're eating through meat etc.
We older women need exercise so much ,I agree with you . If I don’t exercise I get stiff and can’t do as much , I practise high steps and jumping off heights to keep me strong and agile
I joined your group for January 2025. I’ve been Carnivore for 4 years and keep seeing my weight go up. I believe it’s the fat, dairy and decaf coffee.
I stopped that as of today and am following your Carnivore Weight loss plan now.
Thanks Maria for the love you send out by telling truth❤

Been keto over 5 years now, just switched to ketovoire. I have never ate as much fat as was told. I always felt if you eat too much, you’re going to burn dietary fat opposed to stored fat. Glad to hear the protein angle….
My mom was 100 lbs overweight injured her knee after a fall. This was 2 yrs ago she lost some weight then started walking and exercising. She's 68 now in great shape went from not walking to doing boot camp style work out classes. Excersize is good not bad.

I heard all the "excuses" on a fat carnivore diet if you don't loose weight and in the end it is the clients fault. Excuses from: first you need to heal, carnivore is not a weightless diet, maybe you gained muscle, just eat more fat (is good for your hormones and thyroid, and only with the fat what is fuel and low protein you can loose weight). I waisted over a year. In the mean time I saw the protein content and didn't want to believe it, but it works. Always happy with all your content THNX!
Thank you for watching!
I read it only now 7 months later, I think the same happened to me. I am right now waking up regarding the fat consume. I had the same experience as you. I learned about Maria only a few days ago.
@@insahoffmann2437me too. I tried high fat, and gained weight. Afraid to eat more protein, because it will turn to carbs in gluconeogenesis... confusing, right?😊

@Dan but are you ever HUNGRY/like starving? I can lose weight on any diet but I will be starving to death on most of them so hence them not being sustainable for me.
I'm new to this diet. What is psmf?

I'm definitely overeating on keto/carnivore too and have only lost 7 lbs in nearly six months.
I was brainwashed eating a stick of butter per day. Did it for nearly a month and my body told to me to STOP! Was nauseous all the time with blood sugar rollercoster. I’m so happy I found you!
So sorry you got sucked into that. Glad you are here!
Ugh, Me toooooo! So glad to be here to re-vamp!
Thanks for having Coach Dant on the show. He's the Man! Watching Maria in Hawaii brings back fond memory. My siblings and I grew up on Maui. As an endurance athlete, I've been completely fat-adapted for well over a year, thanks to carnivore. I run 100 miles a week (plus do battle ropes and kettlebells) on nothing but water and LMNT. BTW I'm 61 y.o. Thanks for all you do, Maria :-)
Manty blessings to you 🙏

I can’t eat a meal before working out at the gym, but I need something. I don’t eat fake protein shakes. I’m allergic to milk. So my pre workout is a cup of bone broth with a tablespoon of butter and MCT oil. This gives me the energy to push through a hard workout. Without it, I get dizzy and light headed at the gym. Can’t workout as hard, and am wrecked afterwards for most of the day.
I think they say ‘Comfortably stuffed’ which is hard to decide for many people. I think the reasoning behind that, similar to ‘priming’ is because the people coming straight into keto/carnivore are used to always eating for their previous many decades so constantly on the hunt for food. They almost need to feel sick-full for 10-20 minutes after a meal to wake them up to realize what full actually feels like when using protein & fat only.
I get that. But it is an extremely problematic suggestion considering the massive rates of obesity and food addiction in this country. There is no way to quantify "comfortably stuffed." What is comfortably stuffed to me might not look the same to you and we all have very different needs. If weight loss or healing are goals we always suggest prioritizing protein and macro tracking 💪
I've just found you guys, I've seen Dr Ali talk about it- You've made it so clear, I'm working on my building muscle and not adding fat,I know now what to do , thank you so much ❤
Thanks for tuning in!
I did they eat one hungry eat till full thing and it worked for me very well. I think everybody’s different because the way you talk is not me that’s not how I have been doing it and it has worked for me.
I can’t do electrolytes. I tried the element tea and I love it, but it just made my face so puffy. I am just one of those people that cannot do electrolytes I don’t ever feel heavy. I don’t ever feel crampy I don’t ever feel lightheaded or weak. I never feel like I need electrolytes. I guess I’m just lucky that way everybody’s answer for everything is electrolytes and for some people it is not.
Me either! It makes my tongue swell…hahaha, no joke
That's awesome! I, on the other hand, need like 2 a day. Otherwise I get tired and dehydrated really fast. I had bells palsey a few years back and have had reoccurring numbness in my chin and blurred vision when I'm dehydrated. It's bizzar. And yes, I've had it looked into and nothing has come from it.
@@hollybishop484 goes to show you how different everybody is. I’m literally going to talk to my doctor about this next month. I had too much salt yesterday. It was in my food. I did not add it and I am so swollen this morning. I’m already on a water pill I want to up the dose I don’t think it’s enough.
How in the heck did I not see this video before? Thanks to both of you!
You're welcome! ❤️
Really great conversation here!
I get hung up on always being told I’m under eating. Like my 1350 calories with protein prioritized, it’s said to not be enough, when trying to lose weight.
This is where I’ve had to test it out myself.
Yes, I have same issue. Still exploring. Gonna cut the butter way down. Thanks for your comment. All so helpful.
Thank you for the links in the show notes! Great interview and q & a. 😊
thank you on that comment with adding salt when feeling constipaded on PSMF days. This has been my problem the entire time. I tend to feel constipaded when eating a low fat carnivore way ... i also struggle with corisol and suddenly high blood pressure. but only like for an hour and then it passes... i don´t know why this is... but it just occurs sometimes. I went from 83kg down to 73kg but now have stalled at 75kg... I will try to go more into a low fat way of eating now for most days during the week and see how that goes
Thank you for this! I started following you years and years ago, then was diagnosed with RA and thought I needed to go vegan (ruined my health even more). Now I’ve been back keto/carnivore for a couple of years but was still having trouble knowing how much fat:protein I should eat even after using your macro calculator. I was also recently diagnosed with CIRS - the brain fog is real so that may have been why I was having trouble understanding. I am an appropriate weight but have always had excess fat around hips and thighs (may also be due to CIRS) and this finally cleared everything up for me! Thank you, thank you!
I'm so glad you're back! 🙏❤️🥰

Fasting and Carnivore stopped my HUGE autoimmune disorder, 25 plus years of severe depression and anxiety in its tracks! I would have to disagree about fasting. 2 meals in a 6 hr period has worked really well for healing me. Not so much for weight loss but thats okay with me. That will eventually come.
Having a 6 hour eating window isn't really fasting although it's called intermittent fasting. I think fasting is 24 hours or longer which is what Maria is on about disagreeing with.
IM with you all...got brainwashed with EAT 2 STICKS OF BUTTER A DAY!!! SOOOO UPSET
Yikes!
LOL, that actually sounds like something I would NOT enjoy.
I met my first goal of 150 last October. Second goal 140. Down to 145 back up to 150

Love that!
That’s actually a great idea
Awesome show and terrific info! Thanks so much!
I’m just so confused on all the different ways of carnivore.
I was on a program called optavia for over a year. I lost over 100 lbs doing that program. Eating every 3 hours of their product 5 times a day and one lean and green meal a day. Which consist of 4 to 7 grams of lean meat and 3 servings of veggies.
I stopped the program a month ago because I wanted to stop eating prepackaged bio engineered food, and try carnivore.
I’ve been eating the BBBE everyday and I just run to the bathroom right after every meal.
I seen other videos saying eat butter eat butter . Ugh that’s not working lol.
I have 30lbs I want to lose but actually I’m gaining weight. I’m going backwards.
I seen you on another video with another person saying eat lean meats like Turkey , chicken, fish 3 days a week and then have a fat day.
I’m gonna try that starting today. 😊
So should I go back to eating a small amount of vegetables that are low carb as well or not eat any veggies? I heard vegetables are trying to kill us from dr. Chaffee .
So confused about this way of eating🤷♀️🤦♀️ hope you can help. I’ll watch all your videos to see what I can do.
Any "diet" will yield weight loss if the calorie deficit is significant enough. Remember the guy who lost weight eating only Twinkies? It's about prioritizing lean protein so you do not lose precious lean mass as you burn unwanted fat off the body. You can eat a small amount of low carb vegetables if you want and can tolerate them, but you should always prioritize lean animal protein. Protein is the macro goal you want to meet or exceed daily. Fat and carbs are LIMITS. I do not recommend BBBE as it is way too high fat and too low on protein in most cases for sparing lean mass and optimizing fat loss off the body. The more fat you consume, the more you will store for later use :) ua-cam.com/video/mk7kPVdk8JU/v-deo.html
@@MariaEmmerich thank you for your response. Yes , I did lose a lot of muscle mass during the year I was on Optavia.

I avoid salt. I’m salt sensitive and I’m even on a water pill and I still swell up so bad if I have salt. I avoid it like everything. My face gets puffy my hands get puffy. If I keep my diet as bland as possible, I’m fine. And I never feel like I need a Electrolytes. I do salt my steak and my eggs a tiny bit but I avoid anything that has salt because the next day is miserable for me.
"Salt sensitive" just means that you are deficient in potassium. Are you eating avocados, leafy greens, nuts and seeds?
I'd definitely dig a little deeper. Our bodies NEED salt
@@MariaEmmerich my labs were very good in January. Only issue was low potassium. I feel great. But any suggestions on raising it? I’m 90 plus percent carnivore. Veggies make my joints ache and I don’t want the carbs from fruit. I need the last 20 pounds off. I don’t weigh but drs office has me at 172 I’m a size 10/12.

Great interview! I have been a carnivore for a year now. Gained 25 lbs through priming and eating Carnivore WOE. I was told to eat a stick of butter and as much as protein until satiated. I’m so sad that I’m unable to lose that stupid 25 lbs.
Same.... I look forward to feedback about this! ❤
Don’t give up !! I was in the same boat UNTIL I followed PSMF a few times a week. They explain this so well !
Adding a stick of butter is the worst idea for weight loss. Almost all the fat you eat ends up in your fat cells. So how does this help you lose fat? It makes no sense. Get proper macros here and you will do great!

@@amberalexander2741 I printed the PSMF instructions and will follow it. Thank you !
@@MariaEmmerich thank you so much ! By the way , I love love your hair. I printed the PSMF and fast fat loss macros . I will definitely follow it. ❤️ stay safe in Bali and have fun.
I must be a freak. I am lean and gained strength in my lifts when I switched to a higher fat ratio. Also gained muscle. I average 100-110 grams of protein, which is over the 1 lb per lean mass for me. But, it’s the higher fat that did the trick for me. Demonstrates how our needs are unique.
Absolutely🎉
I found the same. I started carnivore lean, am a lean mass hyper responder cholesterol-wise & am almost 2 years carnivore. If I lower my fat, my blood sugars go up & I gain with high protein. I do about 80/20 fat/protein with a minimum 90 grams of protein. I use the x3 bar & do Pilates.
@@Gtlr123 It’s likely that genetics has a lot to do with how differently we respond. I have been researching the blood type diet. I was a vegetarian for over 15 years, and my health deteriorated. For B positive, some meat, such as lamb, is recommended. I am not convinced yet, but I am keeping an open mind.
If you don’t have weight to lose, then you need higher dietary fat.
@@MariaEmmerich Yes indeed.
I’m way over eating but have been hitting protein goals so I guess that’s a positive just have to cut the other stuff out 😅 great calculator
You got this!
Exercise I SWEAR is FOR mental health. ♥️♥️♥️💫♥️💫💫💫💫
AMEN 🎉
If eating fat makes us gain weight as well what’s difference in eating carbs ??? It’s just confusing… so much conflicting info … I’ve tried focusing on protein and nothing changed … gonna try psmf .. but still questioning if should cut out carbs or eat low fat after 🤷♀️
If strictly speaking about weight loss, all that matters is that you are at a calorie deficit. That doesn’t make it healthy 🙏 What matters if you want to lose excess fat without wasting away precious lean mass, while enjoying stable blood sugar levels you need to prioritize lean animal protein, moderate dietary fat and significantly reduce carbohydrate intake ❤️

My blood sugar also decreases after I've eaten. That's how it should be as insulin goes up to process the meal. 🙂
Is butter coffee as the first ingested thing in the day, be detrimental to weight loss as it is not protein. Dr. Bright & Dr. Ken Berry both start their day this way
I don't recommend it at all.

Grams of protein as in the macronutritents; not weight in grams.
I eat 10 total grams or less of carbs a day. That was my question that Craig was answering about the sweet spot and the macros. I think I’m gonna go back to the calculator and try it one more time. I gained weight the first time. I feel like it’s a lot of calories for me. I’m 5” 8 1/2.
Calories don't matter if your hormones are dialed in. I've ate 4,000 calories in a day and lost weight and no others have done the same once you eliminate all the carbs
@@arthurfonzarelli9828 I think I have to probably agree with that. There was a time when I would eat 3000 cal as long as my macros were in check. But lately I think my hormones are out of whack. Had a dental procedure. They moved me up all kinds of steroids, antibiotics, etc. Had a cadaver bone put in my jaw. Been hard to get back on track since. I’ve been optimal top-notch for six years till now. I’ve been healthy, strict keto/carnivore … never sick never have had to take anything. I don’t even use fluoride. If it’s not clean keto, it doesn’t go into my mouth. Now that happened and instantly I just felt sick and I’ve never been able to bounce back.
That just isn’t true. Calorie do matter.my husband eats zero carbs and can gain and lose 10 pounds or more based on activity and eating patterns (holidays, etc). @CraigEmmerich
@@MariaEmmerich In the last 6 yrs of keto/ ketovore it’s been confusing for me, my hormones are also changing. BUT for me I think they do matter. I have had vertigo for almost 2 years. During this time I’m also not able to work out regularly:( Btw I’ve nvr had a cheat day. I’m super strict clean ketovore.I’ll nvr go back.
So sorry to hear that. Have you tried 100% dairy free? That can help some with vertigo.
Hi Maria, I love your content. Question - I am 5'11 female and weigh about 126lbs and I eat A LOT of protein. I just find it so easy and don't need even use powders to make up the numbers and if anything I am overdoing it. My body fat % is about 22 and I am currently working on building muscle strength (like you😊) and body recomp. I try to aim for around 150g protein/ day but I usually go over and end up somewhere around 170-180g. Is this too much? I used to eat more fat but trying to dial it down to about 50-60g day to lose fat so my protein intake has shot up. Does this sound okay?
Nope, not too much as long as your other macros are in check :)

I guess and lucked out on not being obsessed with steak. I like it sparingly. It has never been my favorite meat. I have done keto off and on and finally decided to stop with the inconsistency so more ketovore these days. I plan to incorporate PSMF this coming week. My practical brain could never run with "eating until uncomfortably full." I feel like I'd already been doing that under the SAD most of my life. It seems unreasonable to me because being stuffed is literally overeating. I love butter and will cook with it, but eating sticks? Pass.
Great to hear this conversation. Do you both have any advice for me. I am prioritizing protein and finding it hard to digest after a few days of only meat. Feels like a rock in my gut. Any ideas?
You need to add hcl-pepsin. Most people are deficient in hydrochloric acid from eating a SAD. I suggest adding this: mariamindbodyhealth.com/hydrochloric-acid-with-pepsin/

What did coach Bronson mean when he said eating 120g of protein in one sitting is not ideal. He says that the body will max out at 60g and then it won’t know what to do with the rest. I don’t understand this .
Your body can only digest, absorb, and utilize a limited number of protein grams at a time. Best to divide your daily protein grams into 2 or 3 portions spread out over your eating window.
Coach Bronson! Nice! This will be good...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Ok ive been carnivore fod thhree years. My understanding to become fat adapted is eat.fatty meat. But alot of my carnivore beliefs have been high fat. So in regards to protien, whatscthe protocol fo become fat adapted. Just curious. Great video!
To become fat adapted you need to be in ketosis for several weeks or months. You do this by limiting carbohydrates to 20g total carbs or less per day 🙏
Ok, how many Carb can you have on carnivore? I like cottage cheese and sour cream. Both has carbs in them. I just eat as condiments and not as meal . So is it ok to have at least 15-20 grams of carbs a day from animal stuff?
I would still say 20g or less total carbs is a good goal for weight loss.

I’m so upset with my self I when off the keto for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I try hard to get back on keto . It’s so hard now. What I’m doing wrong.. 😢😢😢
What are your macros? Make sure you are getting enough protein, and keeping the fat intake a little lower when weight loss is a goal: mariamindbodyhealth.com/calculator/
I just went on your website to do the Macro calculator. The first thing at once is my weight I don’t know what my way is I don’t use a scale. Scale is a liar. It does not tell the truth.
People should target a monthly weight loss goal that is realistic. For example, a realistic goal for a woman who has 50 pounds to lose would be 4-5 pounds per month. If using PSMF and moderate fat starts peeling the weight off too quickly then that’s a good signal to ease up and eat more fat for a few days (go to maintenance). I think people lose site of the fact that this is a permanent change in eating, not a diet. There’s really no reason to try to drop the weight at an unsafe rate. Be realistic!
PSMF is just a tool. I never promote doing it any more than 1-3 days a week when large amounts of weight loss is a goal. And it is MUCH better than water fasts.
Salt? Redmond?
Redmond is great! Use code MARIA15 to save: mariamindbodyhealth.com/redmond-real-salt/
What is OMAD??
One Meal A Day. Not recommended for most people 🙏

how do you get protein without meat or fish?

10 garms of carbs per day?
On PSMF days. 20g or less on keto days is good. :)

Thanks for watching!
Now I'm confused. Protein isn't fuel but PSMF but don't eat fat but.... I need to research more. I don't count macros. I simply eat meat with occasional vegetables. I do eat dairy.
PSMF is just a fasting tool you can incorporate to speed up results when significant amounts of weight need to be lost. It is not a way of eating or intended for long term use.

Would love your take on Dr. Jason Fung and how he has cured many people from multiple diseases with fasting, intermittent to extended. I hear so many people say they have felt great fasting and have cured so many issues letting their bodies go into autophagy.
There are some specific circumstances where extended fasting can definitely be a useful tool when managing certain conditions. But science shows that PSMF achieves as much or even better autophagy than extended fasting with much less loss in lean mass.

Hi there! Does it sometimes take a while for the PSMF days to kick in and work? I've been following macros from your calculator for a week including the PSMF and just keep bouncing around the same lb. up and lb. down lol. Is going through a few rounds going to activate the process a bit more? Thanks for any insights 💜
Many factors come into play here. I need a lot more information to help troubleshoot this. What is your gender, height and weight? What are your macros? How many PSMF days are you doing? How is your sleep? Are you having ANY dairy, nuts, gluten, or coffee (caffeine)? Are you tracking your meals, macros and electrolytes? And why are you weighing daily? The scale by itself is an extremely poor indicator for progress 🙏
Makes sense. I'll keep plugging along for a bit and give the rountine a chance to work :) Thanks!@@MariaEmmerich
I know u are a no coffee but im loving my matcha the zen energy and i enjoy it.
I love ya!!! First time I hear, ketones not important :D I have also 0.3 about often, I thought is wrong... But i feel I burn fat, first - you burn fat, Beta oxidation yep? second when my body use ketones, there will be not a lot in blood. I love ya guys :D :
My ketones regularly run .2-.3 due to being keto for so many years. Don't chase ketones (unless there's a medical reason to); chase results ;)
