Anyone try the carnivore diet?

What is the difference between it and Atkins and Keto? They all sound the same to me. Eat all the steak you want, white stuff like rice and potatoes are the devils.

You’ll lose weight just like anytime you cut carbs . But that diet long term isn’t healthy . It’s all protein , fat and salt

I think it has less to do with meat and more to do with the reduction or removal of processed foods, hybridized or domesticated foods, etc. all stuff that wasn’t part of the human diet until about 150 years ago.

Whatever it is, it’s real. Eat as raw and pure as possible -like a caveman- and you’re eating the way your body has evolved 10k+ years to eat.

Paging yote.

Fad diets are not sustainable... Congrats on the high cholesterol, fatty liver, and gall stones.

Ah yes. I see people dropping dead daily from drinking milk and eating apples.

I visted the H&F board hoping to find a thread on this, and wouldn't you know, it was at the top of the board.

I agree with the premise that fad diets are mostly unsustainable for the majority of the population, but I have heard enough about this one that I embarked on a journey to try out carnivor for 5 weeks, I am two days in. The caveat will be that if my workouts / energy levels are suffering then I will supplement with small amounts of fruit as I have heard this helps without defeating the purpose of the diet. I do take a greens powder in the morning with my vitamins.

Some background: I am 30 years old and in pretty good shape, workout consistently and dont really need to lose weight. Been around my same wight for 8-10 years. If I drop 15# then I will be in the best shape that I have been in for a long time. My primary reason for wanting to try it is just to see what the hype is about. I am going on a 30+ day kick of no alcohol for the first time probably since being of legal drinking age, and I figured it would be a good time to give this diet a shot since most of my bad eating habits come on the back of alcohol consumption. Its a convenitent time to try it since we are in the lull between baseball and football seasons, no big holidays to get in the way. I also have a lot of meat in my freezer that needs to be cleared out before hunting season. I don't expect that I will keep this up for the long term, but we're going to see what its about. Going into it with an open mind and I will report back with my findings.
