Patience is key

I'm 5'8, 31, and have been trying to lose weight for over four years. Within those four years there have been two pregnancies. My husband lost over 70 lbs on carnivore. I lost 30 but didn't experience full ketosis due to the psyche meds I was on at the time. Now that the dose is lower, I finally have experienced ketosis and feel amazing.

I have had to be very patient. My goal weight is 150 and Im currently at 200lbs. So far this time starting May 1st, my weight is fluctuating a lot as I increase exercise and my appetite is going down. Im trying to no longer weigh every day but I allow two weigh ins a week now.

This thread is just to encourage myself and maybe others that all good things take time and for me its taking a long time but thats okay.

I consider my diet high fat carnivore. The more fat, the better I feel.

Ill also use this thread to record my progress.

Congrats on your progress.

I did the same thing. This can be like an 'interactive journal'. I actually enjoy reading other people's experiences. I have learned a ton when other people describe their carnivore journey.

I feel better when my fat content is higher also. Sometimes it feels like/looks like a lot of fat but it works for me.

Good luck.

You sound like you are truly becoming a carnivore and are on the right track.

I lost 50 pounds in a little less than a year but being a male it can be easier for us. Patience is the key to success and you are correct to not weigh every day. Just weigh once a week. Mondays are a good day to weigh as you start your week or Friday as you gI into the weekend to stay motivated. The best things you can do is to keep a daily journal detailing every step of your journey. Then once a month get out a cloth tape measure and measure every part of your body. Neck, shoulders, chest, belly, waist, hips, thighs, calves, biceps and forearms. Write this down in your journal and compare it month to month. Inches lost mean more than pounds lost.

Good luck on your journey and try to look at this as a lifestyle and not a diet. Diets come and go but a lifestyle belongs to you forever.
