    I think Judy Cho is amazing, and agree on Bella, who's a bit more sensational.

I have an autoimmune disease as well, and carnivore has worked wonders for me.

And welcome. Hopefully you can find what you need for a smooth transition.

    I second this, the book really emphasized what to eliminate although it doesn't recommend carnivore specifically.

    Some questions to answer for yourself.

    What is your why?

    Are you a rip off the bandaid quickly...or a little bit at a time?

    What diet have you been doing?

    I would start by eliminating seed oils and added sugar. While increasing fat over time.

    If you have been eating low-fat it takes a bit for your bile to catch up and remember what it's job is.

    My weight loss journey began December 2023. When I got serious about losing weight, my journey began with ozempic. When my insurance quit paying is when I stopped. I listened to Steak and Butter girl on Facebook. I then decided to do Carnivore Maech 2024. Lost approximately 10 lbs and gained few lbs and sometimes stalled. I continued carnivore but cut out the dairy. Weight loss is still slow, sometimes stalled. I then found and begun listening to carnivore talk. I joined and here I am. I have not had dairy in 6 months. I eat two meals per day. I eat first meal at 11 am and 2nd meal at 530-6 pm. I do not eat carbs or seed oils. Only fats I eat are real butter and tallow.

    Oh, I misunderstood, I thought you were new to this woe. Sounds like you've made a great start. Have you seen Judy Cho on YouTube, she has some great info on healing. I don't really to watch Bella, she's uses a lot of clickbait and I have a hard time with her delivery. I'm not much of a mukbang person. There is another lady that keeps coming up on my feed, but I'm not sure her name. She's younger sometimes does videos with her dad. He has his own channel. I really like This channel too!

    The other channel I mentioned is Allie Brightwell

    She is very inspiring, doesn't have immune issues, but she has struggled with struggling if you know what I mean.

    Looking for easy to transition reading material to get off to a smooth start. Suggestions?

    Welcome @lesliedean :)

    The Carnivore Diet by Dr. Baker is good.

    Even easier reading is Lies My Doctor Told Me by Dr. Ken Berry. His book isn't entirely carnivore oriented though.

    The Carnivore Code by Paul Saladino is chock full of excellent information, but it's very research/study heavy. Very deep.

    Steak and Butter Gal definitely gets an honorary mention. So does Nutrition with Judy, MyZeroCarbLife (Kelly Hogan), and several doctors in this space have YouTube channels -> Ken Berry, Shawn Baker, Robert Kiltz, Anthony Chaffee, etc.

    • "World Carnivore Month" January Challenge!

      Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following... 1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt. 2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs.  3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy.  In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice. IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based.  We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk.  Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.
