Hi,

My name is Aisha and I just started with the carnivore diet on June 17. So far, so good. I am hoping to get healthier and lose weight. My doctor tells me I am pre-hypertensive and pre-diabetic. This seems like what I need. I guess time will tell.

Awesome! Welcome to the community Aisha! 

Welcome and yes, this way of eating can definitely help you.

Welcoem aboard Aisha!

I think this diet is exactly what you need. For what it's worth, I have successfully reversed my hypertension and my pre-diabetes with my carnivore diet and accompanying weight loss.

Welcome! Ask lots of questions. 

Welcome. I'm brand new as well. Only a couple weeks on this board and started around May 8th or so. 

I'm not a medical professional by any means (but like most I have Google degrees in just about everything, LOL)

I lost 30 pounds in 31-32 days. I did not have the carni-keto flu symptoms at all. I did have one case of severe diarrhea but I think my food choices prior to eating would have been the same, regardless of carnivore or not. I have a couple three times where my energy level was flat to non-existent but I'm 54 and a hundred pounds over weight so I'm not quite ready to run a marathon. For the most part my energy level has been better than before. I can say I have only been actually hungry on two occasions since I started. I work 12 hour shifts so I eat based on that at times. Mostly I have moved to a once per day meal and it is not like I am starving then. I have an auto-immune disease that required pain and inflammation medicine at given times throughout the month. After 25-30 days on the carnivore diet, keeping the weight loss in mind as well, I have not gone to the medicine cabinet for the pain/anti-inflammatory medicine in the last two to three weeks.

I can't say it will help anything medically for you, but I can say what it has done for me thus far.....and that is without any of my Google Degrees. LOL

 

Welcome.
