How To Get Started on a Carnivore Diet (Shawn Baker)

Hi, can somebody's who's shared their testimony of losing weight please help me??? I've been doing carnivore for going on 3 wks and am gaining weight. Honestly frustrated, but not going backwards and jumping off the wagon. Just trying to learn what to do better. I do take supplements in the mornings and evenings. I use 1 Saltt electrolyte pack it in my 16oz of water in the mornings.I only drink water now. I use lard to cook with our just reuse the tallow for the meats I cook. I eat ground chicken, hamburger, wagyu, turkey and pork sausage, eggs and unsalted butter. I only season with pink Himalayan Salt and pepper. Thanks I'm advance😢

Better don’t start this unhealthy diet if you like to live long and care about animals and nature instead of being selfish and arrogant and ignorant and hypocrite and immature, being abusive and polluting.

Hi Dr. Im starting carnivore April 1 2025. I am looking forward to better health. I am 62 years young and my plan is to continue to create longevity through learning the carnivore lifestyle. Thank you. I just ordered your book.

I don’t know if I should lower my metformin, Iam on 2,000 mg 2 times a day, and I’ve been doing conavoire for 4 ish months, I plan on changing to BerBerine, but haven’t yet, I drink elc.lite water sugar free .. But t Iam woundering if the metformin is to much, my last fasting lab was 5.7 so Iam so confused and u ask a doc for help and they don’t give u any. Does anyone know what I should do?

Listen up people !!! Keto Carnivore is terrible, diets will eventually cause health problems because the body's main source of fuel is carbs a scientific fact!!!. There are 3 macro nutrients carbs, fat, protein why would you eliminate one of them makes no sense . Without carbs [ bread] with protein [ meat] you will eventually go into Ketosis and a host of health problems , gout, arthritis, kidney problems . You can lose weight on any diet ie; grapefruit , doesn't mean it's healthy . Don't follow along what everyone is doing it's dangerous See Matt 7 : 13 [Niv] bible

Can I do protein powder? 2 grams per scoop.

I was wondering if anyone else has been experiencing kidney pain I have for the last three months, 18 months carnivore. No pain before this diet.

My lactic acid, is high

Who is less mentally capable, you or Eric Berg?

I used to weigh 2,700 lb I'm getting on the carnivore diet I lost all the weight now I'm 130.

This has completely changed my life seriously on a serious note.
My insomnia has improved my digestion has improved My overall well-being.

3 days in and I've got a smashing headache

Day 2 for me I hope I can stay with it !

So im at risk for colon cancer from genetics can i do a carno diet?

Been on for 2 weeks and only lost 1 pound.

WHY eliminate herbs? So stupid

Top man

Thank you Dr. Baker. I purchased your book and am currently reading it. I have been carnivore for almost a full year now - my life is much improved for it.

Is fasting a good idea when starting carnivore woe

Just dipped my toe into the carnivore WOE 1 week ago today and quickly dropped 12 lbs. I know most of that is water weight as you said but man oh so motivating after seeing the scale. I needed to do something to rid my body of inflammation and side effects of a couple cortisone injections so this is the ticket. Not sure if I’ll continue as I love coffee and some vegetables.

Out of curiosity, could you incorporate kimchie or other probiotic style foods to help with beneficial bacteria for our guts? Every now and then

guys i’m about to start a carnivore diet i currently weigh 225 pounds at at a little over 6ft tall. i want to transform i’ll update you guys on how it goes

You're an inspiration, but the last few days I have failed. My father died a few days ago & I let my emotions control my food choices. After a year of being 95% good, & losing 70lbs. I ate 100 carbs or more a day the last few days. I will get back on track, but I just needed to confess to those who understand.

Thanks Doc. For your input on the last year. Unfortunately I've had too many surgeries and I'm still dealing with the bulging disc. So I just came off a 2 weeks of the flu because I won't do vaccines. So soon as I can eat meat I'm going to lay off the raw dairy and consume more red flesh and proportionate fat wish I'm going to have to buy. Because I buy 25 lb shoulders and it's 25 lb of red meat with no fat

At first half my plate meat. 6 months I went CARNAVORE now, weight normalized, off blood pressure meds and no arthritis! At 73. DO IT!

Ive always always been skinny, no matter how much i eat. I think i have food absorbtion issues.
Would carnivire diet work for me? as people seem to lose weight doing it.

Dr Akins wrote the first book on carnavore and many people like myself now all about it BUT don't claim to be the carnavore king because of book...typical doctor today, FULL OF YOURSELF

Most of these historic references are of men mostly, what about women back then, they lived a different lifestyle? do you acknowledge the differences in male and female physiology from the past?

are you considering whether the meat you are consuming is from a regenerative farm vs. store bought or organic practices? are you considering the difference in quality meat vs. regular store bought? farming practices are not healthy in the USA unless you buy from a regenerative farm with proper soil and elements....thoughts?

How do you avoid dangerous levels of ketones in your system if you do this? Same question for colesterol if both liver/kidney and heart conditions run in the genes and Fam His. Thanks. Really been. Wanting to step into this and have a good friend encourage me to study for myself.

I'm late to this, but im starting today! DECEMBER 20, 2024.

I have lots of weight to lose.

Should I start with leaner meats for the first week or so?
Then, ramp up the fat intake

I have a question. Everyone i tried the carnivore diet after work i would get lightheaded, and feel a tingly sensation starting at my hands then sometimes go through my whole body (maybe upper half. It's hard to concentrate when I'm thinking i might be having a stroke or something) I've been taking liquid IV for electrolytes so i don't think it's that. How do i stop thighs symptoms? What else might be there issue?

Is this diet not associated with awfully high(er) risk of bowel cancer and throat cancer?

Doesn't red meat cause colon cancer?

Is it a bad idea to just eat meat, fish, eggs, fruit and veggies? Instead of cutting the veggies and fruit?

And why are nuts bad? Ex. Almonds?

I really, really hope, these people are right. Because the way I'm shoveling butter, eggs and bacon down my face in 6 months I'm either going to be Jack La Lane or.....dead.

I started the carnivore diet last and I got a round roast and cut it into 32oz steaks. I lost 7lbs last week but my bowels weren't acting as they usually would. watching this video taught me that I need to add more healthy fats into my diet! thank you!

Hi anybody got better while diagnosing having spinal stenosis and painful back? thank you

I also have never been able to eat the day from meat since i was a child, how do i do this with this problem? It literally makes me gag. My mom used to try to force me to eat it while i was about to throw up.

How to start slowly? Do i just up my animals protein and fats. I tried it once and after 3 days got nauseous after the first 3 days.

The best desicion I ever made was getting the ebook Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth, it completly changed my life

Thank you for this Video. I started last year and I was thriving with Keto Carnivore but this year I am really struggling with Cravings. I hoped to see Motivation from others who stick strict to Carnivore will help to start again. I will try again!!!

Day two of total carnivore diet. I've been doing it "semi" for a month to ease into it. I have a high LDL, at 120, but all else is normal. Today I had a visit with my cardiologist who is totally against low carb diets. I didn't tell her I was second day on carnivore! She was telling me what to eat and it was pretty much everything not carnivore diet related. I have done my due diligence and have made a deal with myself to eat carnivore for at least three months. I know I'll feel better. I haven't felt good for years and all the doctors have done is throw pills down my throat. I'm exhausted from that type of medical treatment. I'm ready to be free.

Thank you!

I've been trying to go on this diet for over a year now, but I can't break it! I can't get used to the fat and it makes me sick. I will try again next week because I bought a lot of salads...🙈
