On week 3 of a carnivore cleanse. Had no expectations, just wanted to clean ot the crud and reset.
Results so far:
-lost 18 pounds.
-a clicking in one knee I've had forever went away.
-hair and nails are growing faster.
-lost a tendency to take a nap.
-huge energy boost.
no bloated sluggish feeling after eating.
skin irritation around beard disappeared.
feel mentally brighter.
I'm probably forgetting stuff, but man I'm floored.
If this continues why would i rationally go back to eating food that affects me negatively.
This. Finishing up third month. Down 37 pounds and several inches with no additional physical activity. blood pressure at its lowest in 17 years.
Everything you said and also less sunburn prone.
July 1 I'm going ketovore because i miss some veg and my garden is producing. I also wish to stay above victim weight. BUt will have bread when my wife bakes it with a small handful of ingredients. No more store bought with 50 ingredients.
I've started the low carb diet with Intermittent fasting like I once did years ago and maintained a steady weight of 125 lbs for 25 years. It wasn't a planned diet back then, it just happened to work out that way and became my lifestyle. But thanks to a new husband from an Italian family with lots of pasta, forget the waistline. 2 weeks ago at the Doctors, my BP was up and my blood work said I was Pre-Diabetic. Well, TIME FOR A CHANGE. Forget the Pasta. Working on a healthy weight for my age and waistline.
This is week 2 and I have already lost 9 lbs. I keep my calories at around 1200 daily. On weekends I will have a carb or at least once a week I will have a carb meal in order to sustain my brain. KEK! Today I will have that carb meal of spaghetti with Italian sausage. Once I reach my ideal weight, I will raise my caloric intake to 1500 calories daily. Soon, (IF) all works well, I won't need to count calories, as it will come naturally like it once did.
And I know what you mean about the garden. I've been cooking a lot of fried squash, zucchini, fried green tomatoes, corn on the cob (carb) green beans, cucumbers and onions, salads, etc. My husband has spent a lot of time in the bathroom these last few days due to his change in diet. KEK! I told him to give his body time. It doesn't bother mine. Kek! So I make us a meat and then load the plate with lots of 'fresh' veggies I grew myself. No poisons, no spraying. Only fresh organic veggies. Bon appetit' my friend.
I can attest all that you said is 100% a fact. It is AMAZING how much BETTER I felt after 5 days. I lost 18 lbs in 5 weeks and I wasn't entirely strict. Just completely avoid ALL bread and PROCESSED sugars and you can sneak in a little rice or beans once a week. Paleo is hands down the easiest, most effective diet i have ever been in, and I have tried dozens.
