Scott F., thank you so much. The weight loss is great, but the health benefits are what keeps me motivated. The walking has turned out to be so enjoyable. There are lots of hills in our neighborhood, so I feel like I have a built-in gym! I keep setting goals around distance and conquering certain hills that are very challenging. It’s so satisfying to reach each goal, and then surpass it!

I started Carnivore at the end of April. when my pre diabetes crossed over into full blown diabetes. Doctor wanted to put me on Metformin. It was a huge wake-up call. I had already been watching Dr. Berry, Dr. Chaffee, and asked her to give me a few months to turn it around. I’ve seen the results of diabetes, and want none of that. I’ve done Keto before, which was fine until I started adding the keto treats. Now I know they were just keeping me hooked on that sweet taste, and wanting more. After a couple of weeks eating only animal products, my cravings for sweets were gone - completely. It’s like a miracle. There are snacks in the house for the grandkids, and they don’t call to me AT ALL! My A1c has gone from diabetic to normal, blood pressure from high to normal, I took myself off of the statin, joint pain gone, and I am walking regularly, sometimes twice a day because I actually have energy now! My gerd has improved, but isn’t completely gone yet, but that’s because I still have coffee. I feel like I’ll be able to give that up very soon. This way of eating is just amazing to me. I’m never hungry. I enjoy every meal, but never feel bloated or over full afterwards. I no longer need to carry food around in case of an energy crash, because my energy is stable all day. I feel like a different person! I’m 61, and the future looks very bright now!
