Hello, I'm Jason. I have been on carnivore for one month and am looking for some motivation. For now I am going to read and learn but my total loss has been about 30 pounds.

Hi Jason.

Welcome. Like you I am interested in learning and I do this with my own research, people sharing their experience and my own experience. I started transitioning around the beginning of last February and had pretty much become carnivore by March. So it is over 6 months for me now. The health benefits and weight loss have been very rewarding. All the best to you in your journey too!

Congrats on starting carnivore. I'm only 18 months in but the rewards have been tremendous.

This is a good place to read, learn and exchange ideas. Tons of experience and knowledge floating around in this forum.

Good luck in your research and if it does not jump out to you, ask the question. No one here really minds re-hashing old topics for newer people.

Awesome! 30 pounds in 30 days alone should be very inspiring and motivational! Now that you have 30 days under your [now looser] belt, you know you can also reach 60 or even better, 90 days, which is what we recommend everyone shoot for.

Have you had any NSV's (non-scale victories), such as mental clarity or remission of any chronic symptoms? Or were you generally healthy and just in it for the weight loss?

Thank you everyone I did have a weekend right after my post where I went on a sugar binge and got very very sick. I am now back on the wagon and have lost another 5 lbs. If I had not gone on the binder I would be down another 3. I am still working on my goal to be below 300 by September first of 2026. I asked my wife today to bring me ice cream (kind of a test) she came home with things for her and said you have to keep to your goal. I was very happy with her. She is being very supportive!

welcome!

Keep up the good work Jay. We’ve got your back.

That's awesome. Mine is supportive now and won't let me cheat, but back in the beginning it was as if she was out to sabotage me, lol. I think she thought I was nuts because I switched from being that "you have to eat your fruits and vegetables" guy to "I only eat meat", lol. She would get ice cream, cookies, and some of my favorite things and be like "mmmmm..... look at me, I can eat anything I want". 🙄

My response was "So can I. The difference is, I don't wanna eat that" lol.
