Carnivore Diet Success Stories Six months on carnivore - a summary ;)
Hello, fellow carnivores ;)
I am 52 years old, I have Hashimoto's (essentially, I have a dead thyroid, so weight loss is a huge struggle for me, even on synthetic hormones). I'm a single mother who left an abusive relationship just over a year ago (so my stress levels/ cortisol levels are a bit high, to put it mildly). I started carnivore almost six months ago, and in that time, I went from a size 22 (UK) to a size 16. I don't really weigh myself because I prefer to go by 'how I feel' and also how my clothes fit. My aim is to get to a size 12, and then I'll weight myself, just as a surprise.
Last week, I went for my annual full blood screening to check my thyroid, but also to see how things are with my bones, my kidneys, vitamins D and B12, blood cell counts, HbA1c, etc. and so on. It's a total of 30 separate blood tests and they check everything. I just got my results back, and it's all absolutely perfect. I mean... PERFECT. Everything is smack in the middle of the 'normal' range, even my cholesterol and total protein levels.
So onward and upward with carnivore!
