Mitch, I saw myself in a picture from my son’s wedding 10 months ago. It made me stop in my tracks. I was at 230 lbs and only 5’7”. I immediately started keto and transitioned to carnivore 78 days ago. Down 43 lbs. no stopping me now. Thanks for the video. Well done sir!
Sorry I got the shopping center name wrong is Oceanside shopping center I can’t believe I hate when I read is they tore down but made it taller? Plus they tore down St. Martians in the fields and probably put in condos or another shopping center. That was the church I went too!
Today is day 90 on carnivore for me. The day I started, my blood pressure was 154/96 (pretty high in the hypertension realm) I couldn't walk up two flights of stairs without feeling winded. Everyone warned me the diet would kill me and only make my problems worse. Yesterday I checked for the first time since I started, and it was 116/77!!! I can RUN up 6 flights of stairs now. I no longer snore or have apnea symptoms, I'm down 4 or 5 belt holes, and I have crazy energy now. When I started the diet, it was pretty much anything goes that is animal based, but the longer I do it, the less I crave all the extra stuff. It's really just beef, butter, salt, water, (some carbonated), eggs, and a little bacon and cheese at this point. Everyone also said this would be extremely expensive to stay on, and it's actually saving me a ton of money. I was likely spending $70 per week on fast food and gas station food during the work week. I'm honestly not sure I'll stay on carnivore after I hit my goals, but it seems the longer I'm on it, the easier that decision is to make. Why would I turn my back on aging in reverse.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It is comments like your that keep convincing me we are all on to something! I don't get comments like "Carnivore made me sick". Wonder why?
I"m 74. I had the same experience. I injured my knee when I was 55 and had to stop running 5 miles a day. Without the exercise I began gaining about 10 pounds a year. At the time my wife was vegan, so we ate mostly veggies and I usually added fish or chicken with dinner. By the time I retired at 70 I weighed 254 pounds. (I'm a short guy, only 5' 7" so I looked like a bearded bowling ball.) Six months before I retired and moved to France, I went to the VA for a physical and my doc told me if I didn't change my lifestyle I'd be dead in 3 years. So, once I got to France, I went Keto and the weight started coming off. However, after a year and half I hit a plateau at 205 and I couldn't seem to drop below it, so I switched to carnivore a year ago. Today I weigh 169 pounds, just 5 pounds away from 164, the weight I was when I got out of Navy at 23.
Congratulations my friend. I am hearing from a lot of people, like you and me, who got a big boost from just eliminating that last little bit of plants and carbs. Thanks for sharing.
I have the same goal. Weigh the same as I did when I got out of the Navy. Started at 262. Now I’m in the 220’s 3.5 months and not even trying. Full steam ahead shipmate!
@@twofarg0ne763 bravo monsieur j'irai vous visitez en France et on se fera un immense festin Carni - very proud for you and your family 😊 merci du partage monsieur wow
Mitch, I think you look awesome! I'm a 79 year old female, been carnivore 4 months. Dropped from 142 lbs to 122 pounds as of this morning. I now weigh less than I did when I graduated high school (but not nearly as toned needless to say 😄). I have experienced the same astonishment as you - and I'm not going back. Bless you for sharing! Hopefully providing inspiration for many. ❤
I always think it's so brave when someone posts photos of themselves they don't really like. But then again, I'm getting old, too, and part of getting old is not caring what others think!
I am 65. I was diagnosed w Chronic osteoarthritis arthritis in my knees decades ago. I never did surgery. I told the doctor I needed to change my diet-- they yelled at me. Finally, after ten years or ore!! --I decided to go Carnivore. After deciding I would need a wheel chair soon. In one week, my life changed. I have no pain in my knees l or legs. After three weeks no pain in my feet. No pain. A new LIFE, REBORN!!! This is A MIRACLE!!
I’ve gone down this road, not for weight control, but for blood sugar control. Going from a S.A.D. to predominately carno/keto (very, very minimal carbs) with some fasting episodes thrown in, has taken me from A1C of 11.0 to a low of 5.3. (And very good lipids as well). This is not magic, it is just nature doing its thing when you fuel your body properly. Thank you for your reports Mitch. Much, much, much respect and appreciation!!!
@@OldGuyCarnivore - Yes sir. I must say that not having the nagging, “boat anchor” of a wife certainly has helped us over the hump as well for both of us in making good choices. 😁😁
Sure do miss Butter Bob. He was a great encouragement to me back when I started my journey 8 years ago. I'm going back to carnivore not so much for the weight loss as the health improvements. I was a type 2 diabetic with A1C of 13!!!! My A1C was never in the 4s, but now it's creeping up to 5.9 and I'm falling asleep after I eat, so I know my insulin is probably too high and my blood sugar is probably technically in a diabetic range after I eat.
I am a home care nurse, and specifically deal mostly with wound care. You would not believe the festering wounds that I have to deal with on a daily basis. One of the first things we establish is to make sure that the person is eating at least some of a healthy diet. Start the day off with an orange, graham crackers, Ensure/ Boost, toast with jam. Maybe an egg. This is pretty universal. Including senior Long Term Care and homes, I am in both. Lunch: pasta, green beans, some small meat, bun, margarine, fruit. Diner: small meat, pasta or rice, veggies, bun, margarine. Snacks: always fruit, cookies, crackers, sweets. Almost universal. Only exception would be the few that had their kids take over their diets and then we see heavy vegetarian influences desperately trying to stop the cog decline that is so often the case. Smoothies with fruit, flax seeds, veggies. They are melting… their wounds are festering and we barely get one healed before another one erupts. Weeks, months, and the dressings are expensive, from honey infused, silver, anti microbial, seaweed! Amazing stuff! But very little difference in how long it takes to heal. I had a breakdown 2 months ago. Imagine a job that you never succeed at. I basically help people control the smelly exudate from their festering wounds. I am a few months into studying carnivore diets, etc, and the antidotal cases, and I am seeing the one thing that all my patients have in common. Their diets. My diet.
Well said! Their diet is based strictly on the government and medical community dietary guidelines, deficient in virtually everything, and about the only healthy thing they feed those people is the one egg once in a while. It's criminal!
I’m an RN that is learning more and more about carnivore diet. Any chance you could get ONE patient to go carnivore? I’d love to see what happens to their wound.
@GenRN I have had a venous stasis ulcer on my leg for 3 years now. It's not terribly bad, but it won't heal and got better with treatment but when i couldn't afford $750 or more a week for treatment i had to quit going and it got worse again. I don't want to lose my leg! I'm about to give this carnivore thing a go, for that reason, plus a host of others. Big thanks to Mitch and Dr. Ken Berry and a few other carnivore influences for informing and motivating me to do this. I have full faith that if I can stick with this my leg ulcer days are going be over. Hope you have patients that will take their Healthcare into their own hands and do the same. I work in a nursing home so I know how hard it is to see people suffering. And the sugary crap they feed them there on a daily basis
Sounds like the daily diet at the nursing home where I work. Except they have cake or pie or cookies or ice cream for lunch AND supper meal. Plus the snacks. Cinnamon rolls that are bigger than their entrée
I will celebrate my 1st Carni-verssary m. I'M now 72 and WOW this has dramatically changed my life and health for the GOOD! I took a before pic and how horrible I looked. I can now tolerate the AZ heat better also. Im unrecognizable also from a year ago. Haazaah!!❤
I love the way you have not simply accepted your shape as ‘the way it is’! Most people around me are not happy with their weight and their gradually worsening health, but are enslaved by their carb addition which they describe as ‘love of food’ !
Sad but true. The answers are out there, but as they say, "you can lead a horse to water ...". That's addiction for you, cark addicts "love" food, alcoholics "love" alcohol, etc.
It is so good for us eating carnivore. I was a vegan vegetarian and could not get to a slim version of me. Two months on carnivore and I was weighing less than when I was 20 years old.Now over 50 and still less than all my years as a very fit vegetarian always weight conscious.
I BELIEVE IT...!👍🏆👍 It's Day 111 of my 99% Meat Diet.💪Went from XXL Shirts🎽 to Medium. 48" Jeans👖to 32".➡ Ate 'One Meal A Day'(OMAD)(23.5 hr Fasting) until August. Ate 'One Meal Every Other Day'(OMEOD) for 2wks of August(47.5 hr Fasting)! Known as Alternate Day intermittent Fasting(ADIF). Now doing Keto OMAD & Every Other Day 100-200 gr Unpasteurized Raw Sauerkraut is my only food for the day & it fixed my severe stomach problem! Fatty liver/psoriasis gone, Improved mental Clarity, Sharper Eyesight, healthy gums, Stomach healed etc.....!
I'm 55. Highest weight was 341. I'm aprox 190 now, trying to stick to carnivore (I'm a carb addict!). Aprox 26% body fat, still working it down. My step father recently told me I look gaunt. LMAO. I'm stronger, more muscles and less fat and feeling the best I have in more than 3 decades, but I look "gaunt". Keep up the great work! Enjoying your videos.
I had just hit the top of "normal" weight range for my height, (a weight that was considered chunky when I weighed the same at graduation in 1990) when my coworkers started telling me I was "too skinny." I'm now 25 lbs heavier and technically obese but everyone calls me "curvy" and think I look great. Insane
63 years old, been on Keto for 5 or 6 years, lost 40-45 lbs but stuck there for the last 3-4 years(started at 253lbs)....Went full Carnivore 7 months ago, lost an additional 45-50 lbs (now 163 lbs)....Lost a total of ~90 lbs, this is what I weighed at 20 years old.....Amazing results, feel superb, most maladies gone, we are being played by the "system".
I can understand why someone you know might think your skinny. I mean it’s Al about what we are used to. I remember as a kid there was the occasional fat person. Now you could go all day and be lucky to see one “skinny” person! Thanks for sharing
Too inspiring 😊. I'm gonna do it. As a 5'9 68yold at 235lbs Fall 2022, I'm now stuck since June at 200lbs on meat with salads, low carbs and occasional junk (I never met a muffin I didn't like!) exercising 3 days a week. Need the breakaway to get to my next goal...175lbs...I clearly see my natural inclination toward your way of eating. Your Best advice..."if you don't buy it, you won't eat it." Thank you.
Thanks Mitch... It's brave to make a video like this. I can't wait to get to 95 pounds again... At age 29 I was 86 pounds and was not skinny, but now at my age anything under 100 pounds would be very nice indeed for my height of 55 inches. It is a strange life to be a miniature person and I love it, but not when I am 144 pounds like today. I need to lose about 34% of my present weight. It's daunting.
It is always nice comparing pics from the past to now. I am in awe of the change how my body transformed after 6months. Just amazing what the carnivore diet did. Thanks for sharing your pics. Remarkable.
Oh boy, I am in 70's and down to 240 lbs. from 285 lbs. a few years ago. However in the last few months I have lost another 50 lbs. but I still have a belly. And I think that is because of my weak muscles. All summer I have been working on standing up out of a chair without using my arms. Which I will need in my 80's. I hope my English was ok after that stroke 5-6 years ago.
Hey’ super congratulations. I am 74 and I already lost 20 psd. Carnivore all the way...I am on my fourth month. Thank you so much for your video...I was afraid to be too old. ❤
Hi Mitch 👋. It looks like you have always been a handsome man. Looking at your before and after pictures, I am amazed at the difference. Wow!! You have done a fantastic job in taking care of yourself being on the Carnivore way of life. Keep up the good work. 😊
Super duper Uncle Mitch, I have had a life changing experience in the last 2 weeks. I had a brain tumor that was bleeding, collapsed, ED, chopper, op, fixed out on Weds then the new me. All body pain has gone & feel 30yrs younger, brain is working better than it ever has. I'm a survivor & looking to loosing the fat trucker me. Thankyou Uncle Mitch. 😊😊
I am so glad I found this older video, Mitch. This is very helpful to show to all people. Even people that are not carnivores that find you by accident. I’m guessing that a lot of people, having seen the side-by-side, would definitely consider carnivore or at least keto as an option. I have plenty of old videos of me, looking like the Pillsbury doughboy as well and it’s hard for me to even look at them because I am disgusted with what I let myself become. The good thing is I am down to between 150 and 155, I am 5 foot nine and a 58-year-old man. I’m 16 days on carnivore and really don’t wanna lose anymore weight but just want to clean up my body, fix some health ailments, and Lift heavier weights. Thank God for people like you, Mitch. I love your videos.
What a fabulous transformation! Thank u for sharing your journey with us. I know it wasn't easy to do that. But, the proof is there now for all to see. And, to hopefully want that for themselves and they will do it, too.
Mitch, I just happened upon your video. I'm 76 also and just started easing into the carnivore diet about 3 weeks ago to try to reverse my non alcohol fatty liver. Obviously too soon to know anything but I have lost 7 lbs. I found your results to be quite encouraging and congrats to you by the way. The comparison photos spoke volumes and I think you're correct about not being too thin. Friends and family are most likely just used to seeing you as a plump guy. Only a year and such amazing results.
I hope I can show you what's possible, especially reversing the fatty liver. May take a month or 3, but it will happen. Let me know when you have done it. Best of luck, see you at 100.
As a person who loves a fuller face on people, I think you look great in the first shot BUT I understand wanting to feel better and as we age having a saggy face/skin goes hand-in-hand with aging so feeling better is the most important thing no matter how skinny my face looks as I lose!
Hi Mitch. I've gained more info and inspiration from your videos than any others I have seen. I'm 68 and have been diabetic for 20 years. Always been overweight and tried every diet out there. Your videos have explained so much especially with regards to addiction. I now feel confident enough to start . Thank you. I'll keep watching
I lost 50 pounds in six months and the difference is astounding. I was 220 pounds at 5.7 and looked like a keg in draw string pants because nothing else fitted around my belly. For the last 2 months I'm hovering around 170 pounds, not going up or down, so that seems to be my weight, but the transformation has not stopped. Every month I see a difference. The skin is tightening up, muscle definition is getting better and general health is amazing. No gout attack for 8 month with no medication. I can only recommend the carnivore lifestyle to any sceptic, like I was. Forget the science, just do it and find out for yourself.
Hay Mitch, thank you for the update, and the encouragement. I’m 10 years your junior. My wife and I started carnivore a few months back. So far so good. A few misshapes, shouldn’t have eaten that, and people coming to visit with opinions and poor food choices. Carnivore is really pretty easy, but the mental, social, and old habits are not easy. However, I’m learning a lot about myself, people around me, and how our SAD diet is messing with our wallets, our health, and wellbeing. Nuff said, may your steaks be cooked right, and your life fore filling.
Congratulations Mitch. I have been carnivore for 5 years now, at 72 years young this is the best thing i have ever done. Never going back to the SAD diet.
Hi Mitch. I too, have been on the proverbial "yo-yo" with my weight, almost all of my adult life. I'm 71yo and at my heaviest, three years ago, l was 260lbs. I'm "currently at 176lbs" and five weeks ago, when l first started on the carnivore way of eating, l weighed in at 188lbs. So a 12lb loss of weight, in five weeks, makes me very happy indeed. I will emphasise however, l initially decided to give the carnivore lifestyle way of eating a try, was first and foremost for health reasons, over and above the additional benefits of weight loss, although, it in part, was indirectly contributing to my health issues too. Food allergies were causing me so many health problems, ( l won't bore you with the details) l had to do something to improve my quality of life and get off the awful medications that were also adding to my daily misery. After just five weeks in, l'm slowly improving in numerous ways, better quality of sleep, improved mood, (a big plus😊) not snacking at night and slight improvement in energy. Already, with these slight improvements and no negative problems to comment on, l'm hooked on this carnivore way of eating forever. Mitch, you truly are an inspiration to all that watch your excellent channel and l'm so fortunate to have come upon it. Cheers from Australia. 🇦🇺 😊
Your last video didn't allow comments, so i'll comment here. I know where your coming frome. Please don't give up thats what they want. We watch you everyday.
Wow Mitch, add more 15lbs list and minus 15 years and I parallel your story to the T. Incredible.. 61 now and 15 Month carnivore. Same deal with shirts, nice to tuck them in again, from XL to med size now. Lots of extra skin, did you have to address that? Any fasting or do you figure it will disappear slowly? I really feel for those losing 100lbs plus but in some ways I see it as a badge of honor from the battle of the bulge!! Maybe I'll have it for the rest of my life as a reminder I used to fit in that skin. You are an inspiration my friend!! 🥩🧈🥓🍳👍✌️
Great JMP. I don't have too much loose skin because I never got too obese, most 40-50 pounds. I still have some around my middle and hips where the love handles and the belly used to reside ...LOL
I'm 52 years old. Started carnivore last summer and had some cheat days in there as well and I now have the best body I've ever had in my life. I thought my waist was good before and it went from a 38 to a 32 and now I see my abs defined for the first time in my life. Never had a good body my entire life and now my deck system shows him in the top 2% for lowest body fat percentage for someone my age. This is amazing
I know how you feel. I just got a comment from someone asking why all the carnivore men are always posting pictures with their shirts off. I almost hit the floor laughing. After considering some cutting answers, I opted for silence ,,,,,,,,,LOL
Wow what a transformation Mitch!! You are such an inspiration to other people who have been fighting with diets their whole lives. Thank you for making this video.
I started carnivore 2 weeks ago and I'm loving it. My kitchen, pantry and fridge don't look anything like yours because my husband is still eating SAD foods. He loves meat, but has no interest in going carnivore. He is not seeing how unhealthy he really is because he is actually underweight. He is busy all the time- very active, but I see him losing muscle tone that he used to have. I could sure use some tips on getting him onboard with carnivore.
Ha, yes. I can believe that people who've known you think, "he's too thin." We're so used to seeing fat people. At the grocery store - that is all I see. Obesity run amok. You see a skinny person and you think, wow. Commercials now feature fat people. When we do our nightly walk at the mall, all the pictures in the windows feature fat people. Even Victoria's Secret has been putting fat women in skimpy bras and bikini bottoms in their window display. We walked thru Kohls the other day - they have fat manikins dressed up in sports wear. They want us to consider this "the new norm." Ridiculous! But it is a struggle. My husband and I both have yo-yoed too. So, I totally appreciated this video. Truth to told.
Wonderful work on your Carnivore journey! AND this is an excellent video that I can share with my non-Carnivore friends.🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for sharing your journey with us
I'm very impressed by the flatness of your upper stomach. The Liver is in that area. My upper stomach area is quite fat. You've inspired me to try and flatten it out. 🙂
I don't even think the abs are necessary because the lack of fat and the natural broadness of your trunk makes you look extremely fit and healthy. You look strong and not scrawny. @@OldGuyCarnivore
Came across your channel two days ago looking for chuck roast crockpot recipes. Super simple. Im a Bright Line Eater but also carnivore. 4 bright lines. No sugar No flour of any kind Weigh and measure my food 3 meals a day No snacking I have some berries and cream but mostly butter - beef - bacon and eggs. I’m an old Bob Briggs adhérant. Also 70 years old. Went from 270 to 160. Then after two hip replacements and a heart attack went up to 220. Now back to 190 going for 175 as my goal weight. You have a great podcast. Keep it up.
Wow! Your pictures tell a powerful and encouraging story. Thank you so much for sharing your journey. Congratulations on all your health and aesthetic gains!🎉
8.27k subscribers as at 27 August 2023. Mitch, you started your drone channel four years ago and switched it to a carnivore lifestyle channel one month ago yet your carnivore videos are smashing it. You no BS down-to-earth style way of sharing your experience, journey and wisdom is awesome. I'm picking that by the end of 2023 you'll have over 100k in subscribers. 53 year old male here that has pivoted between 100% vegan supposedly 'whole' food plant based to low carb omnivore over the years with lots of raw greens like kale. I felt shit on the vegan diet after a couple over months. After binge watching your videos l'm going all in for 30 days. Nothing but grass fed red meat, one 100g of raw grass fed lamb liver per week, small amount of ghee, eggs, canned sardines in water, and 24 hour fermented kefir using kefir grains and organic grass fed full fat A2 milk (the 24 hour ferment halves the carbs and gives more than a dozen stains of probiotics). The milk has a real yellow tinge to it from the good fats. Looking forward to seeing the benefit in physical AND mental health. Keeping on keeping it real mate. Your channel is going to take off!! Massive thanks from New Zealand. 👍 Regards Glenn
Great job my friend. One thing I will add BMI is not the best way to see if you are overweight or underweight, as muscular men end up showing as obese. What’s better is waist to height. Dr Berry taught me that , and Mr buff DrChaffe also. Keep it going and eat meat! ❤
The Best by far way to do it is to go get your body fat percentage from a DEXA scan it's like a hundred maybe $150 and it's totally worth it because now if you lose weight you can see if you lost fat or muscle. Do it a couple times a year. I weighed 170 a few years ago and everyone said I look terrible now I weigh about that and look totally different way more muscular
Hi Mitch I am 74 and I relate to you and your journey thus far in your life. Keep up the good work on your journey. It is an inspiration for myself beginning a new life without carbs and sugar. I hope a year from now I can do some before and after photos also. Looking forward to your future inspiration.
When I look back at my yoyo diet I see the same results. I am doing keto. Have lost 35 pounds since May 18th. I am 67 and was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. I go for blood work next month and I am sure I will be in remission. You are an inspiration. Was up above 200 and now holding at 165.
Hey from Australia, Mitch. I'm 55M,carnivore for 6 months, and loving it, losing weight, gaining health and fitness. Just wanted to mention that many of your photos are either named for the year they were tajen(you're underestimating some of the years. But the story remains a great testament to your journey. Congratulations.
I really relate to looking at yourself and being OMG. Its mind blowing how this one simple change in what goes in your mouth completely changes your whole body and world. I blew up as a teen and yo-yoed ever since but now, like you I am leaner than I ever have. Its not just weight, actually I've barely lost 5kg on the scale but golly gee my waist is SO slim and I feel amazingly well. Keep up the content as its great to see a regular guy setting a great example. As much as the high profile names are interesting I was convinced to go carnivore by people like you, a regular joe that made it real.
Hi Mitch, congrats on your carnivore weight loss, but i think you were too hard on yourself because you look good in all your pictures; at least to me! You never looked overly heavy in my opinion! Keep up the good work as will I and thanks for the day off😁
You've done an awesome job on carnivore! Great oicture-walk down memory lane. Like you, I don't have many fat pictures, hard to look at anyway. Thanks for sharing, Mitch.
I love you video s . And just about everything you said is exactly what I’ve experienced. I’m 74 next month and have never felt better. If it wasn’t for Dr Ken Berry, I would still be pre diabetic.and having only one kidney to boot high blood pressure , he was an absolute life saver. I also now have a low carb Dr , and that’s so reassuring because he doesn’t just write out scripts for everything. Thanks Mitch . Looking forward to your videos.
Very inspiring, Mitch! I congratulate you on your progress, and look forward to experiencing similar xhanges in my own body. I have a long list of things that need 'fixing'. Gonna show this video to my wife tonight, and hopefully she'll be a bit more supportive of what I'm doing after seeing how carnivore has helped you.
I’m at about 210 down from my heaviest at 240. I’m often 220. What’s shocking is that nobody ever tells me anything about it. They pretend they don’t notice that I’m 20 lbs heavier than when they last saw me. My goal for this year is to get to my lowest weight as an adult, 180. I haven’t been convinced that it’s enough weight to really change my life or how others see me but now I’m curious to find out.
Thanks for sharing this very inspirational video. What you observe in the photos are bio markers that Dr Sean Omara talks about specifically the inflammation in the face (round) vs a leaner healthier face and the belly fat to a flat narrow waistline. You appear to have eliminated the harmful visceral fat amazingly in just one year! Great job and thanks for the channel!
I am a fan of O'mara too. My digital scale tells me I have almost no visceral fat left although I don't think that they are as accurate as an actual scan.
Yeah, I topped out at 210 and then got back down to the 150 that is healthy for me at 5'10". I don't really have many "fat pics" either because, like you, I threw them out or I just avoided ever having my picture taken.
I'm 82 & starting a slow carnivore taking my time, I'm at 150lbs at 5'-4" & want to maintain that weight, I'm down from 166, & belly hanging over my belt.
3 months in, with a partner that thinks i am nuts. I will continue and just won't mind the dirty looks. Funny thing is I put in a large garden, and we own a chocolate and cake shop. I started for mental health and other health issues, so weight loss secondary. However really liking my new look. Down 40 pounds, lost 4 inches of my bellybutton measurement. Walking 5 miles per day, slug prior, slug for two years in retirement. You are looking great I have 9 years to catch up to you. Loved your video 😊😊
Hi new to your channel.. wow what a huge difference! I like to see mature people doing this bc im just starting and struggling. I started to think too old for this way of eating. Thanks for sharing it' made me reconsider.
Just fantastic! Thank you for sharing this and for reinforcing my conviction to this lifestyle. I have already picked up some good cooking tips from your other videos!
Almost 2 months on carnivore and I have lost around 20 pounds. Not to mention the mental clarity has improved by leaps and bounds. My bp is down and I feel I can someday throw my cpap machine in the trash. Thank you sir for the video... you look great!! Congratulations
You’re one of my inspirations. The Carnivore Clan is pretty awesome. Everyone working together to support each other. I bought 1 of the carbon steel pans to cook my steaks but having an electric stove it’s kind of hard to cook it. But I have a lot of steaks and look forward to the challenge.
impressive ! Thank you for your testimony! For my part, I switched to carnivore for three months and the results are incredible too. I suffer from a mood disorder and have never felt better. I lost 5 kilos (I wasn't very fat to begin with). I lost visceral fat (no more love handles) and my face changed too. I returned to sport and am in much better physical condition. I will not go back to my old diet!

Old Guy Carnivore is helping more people improve their health than the average doctor!
Thanks, Ken. Nice of you to say. My best to you and your family
@@KenDBerryMD Ive never met a doctor that cures a disease yet
Mitch, I saw myself in a picture from my son’s wedding 10 months ago. It made me stop in my tracks. I was at 230 lbs and only 5’7”. I immediately started keto and transitioned to carnivore 78 days ago. Down 43 lbs. no stopping me now. Thanks for the video. Well done sir!
Congratulations on the wedding and your accomplishment. It gets easier the longer you do this.
@@Carnivorecurt777 Look at all these Carnivore names. Are y'all related?
Sorry I got the shopping center name wrong is Oceanside shopping center I can’t believe I hate when I read is they tore down but made it taller? Plus they tore down St. Martians in the fields and probably put in condos or another shopping center. That was the church I went too!
That’s great to here
Keep it up 👍🏽
Hi, Mitch. Your weight looks proportional to your height, whatever that is. You don’t look emaciated, you look fine-tuned and lean.
Today is day 90 on carnivore for me. The day I started, my blood pressure was 154/96 (pretty high in the hypertension realm) I couldn't walk up two flights of stairs without feeling winded. Everyone warned me the diet would kill me and only make my problems worse. Yesterday I checked for the first time since I started, and it was 116/77!!! I can RUN up 6 flights of stairs now. I no longer snore or have apnea symptoms, I'm down 4 or 5 belt holes, and I have crazy energy now. When I started the diet, it was pretty much anything goes that is animal based, but the longer I do it, the less I crave all the extra stuff. It's really just beef, butter, salt, water, (some carbonated), eggs, and a little bacon and cheese at this point. Everyone also said this would be extremely expensive to stay on, and it's actually saving me a ton of money. I was likely spending $70 per week on fast food and gas station food during the work week. I'm honestly not sure I'll stay on carnivore after I hit my goals, but it seems the longer I'm on it, the easier that decision is to make. Why would I turn my back on aging in reverse.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It is comments like your that keep convincing me we are all on to something! I don't get comments like "Carnivore made me sick". Wonder why?
I"m 74. I had the same experience. I injured my knee when I was 55 and had to stop running 5 miles a day. Without the exercise I began gaining about 10 pounds a year. At the time my wife was vegan, so we ate mostly veggies and I usually added fish or chicken with dinner. By the time I retired at 70 I weighed 254 pounds. (I'm a short guy, only 5' 7" so I looked like a bearded bowling ball.) Six months before I retired and moved to France, I went to the VA for a physical and my doc told me if I didn't change my lifestyle I'd be dead in 3 years. So, once I got to France, I went Keto and the weight started coming off. However, after a year and half I hit a plateau at 205 and I couldn't seem to drop below it, so I switched to carnivore a year ago. Today I weigh 169 pounds, just 5 pounds away from 164, the weight I was when I got out of Navy at 23.
Congratulations my friend. I am hearing from a lot of people, like you and me, who got a big boost from just eliminating that last little bit of plants and carbs. Thanks for sharing.
Well done
I have the same goal. Weigh the same as I did when I got out of the Navy.
Started at 262. Now I’m in the 220’s
3.5 months and not even trying.
Full steam ahead shipmate!
@@twofarg0ne763 bravo monsieur j'irai vous visitez en France et on se fera un immense festin Carni - very proud for you and your family 😊 merci du partage monsieur wow

FIRST THUMBS UP AND COMMENT for the OLD GUY that is reversing his AGE!!
You're FAST!
Hello Craig, he's not eating sardines. Lol
Mitch, I think you look awesome! I'm a 79 year old female, been carnivore 4 months. Dropped from 142 lbs to 122 pounds as of this morning. I now weigh less than I did when I graduated high school (but not nearly as toned needless to say 😄). I have experienced the same astonishment as you - and I'm not going back. Bless you for sharing! Hopefully providing inspiration for many. ❤
That's great. Wait until 6 months or a year, you won't believe what happens!
@@OldGuyCarnivore I'm just excited to see a waist again!
I always think it's so brave when someone posts photos of themselves they don't really like. But then again, I'm getting old, too, and part of getting old is not caring what others think!
You're right. I've always been a private person but I made the decision to do this and not hold back. I hope it helps someone.
I am 65. I was diagnosed w Chronic osteoarthritis arthritis in my knees decades ago. I never did surgery. I told the doctor I needed to change my diet-- they yelled at me. Finally, after ten years or ore!! --I decided to go Carnivore. After deciding I would need a wheel chair soon. In one week, my life changed. I have no pain in my knees l or legs. After three weeks no pain in my feet. No pain. A new LIFE, REBORN!!! This is A MIRACLE!!
I had RA with Attacks so ba I couldn't tie my shoes. All gone! But they still tell me it's not a healthy diet! Ludicrous.
Wow, these first hand experiences are so encouraging and truly fascinating actually. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve gone down this road, not for weight control, but for blood sugar control. Going from a S.A.D. to predominately carno/keto (very, very minimal carbs) with some fasting episodes thrown in, has taken me from A1C of 11.0 to a low of 5.3. (And very good lipids as well). This is not magic, it is just nature doing its thing when you fuel your body properly. Thank you for your reports Mitch. Much, much, much respect and appreciation!!!
Thank you so much.
@@OldGuyCarnivore - Yes sir. I must say that not having the nagging, “boat anchor” of a wife certainly has helped us over the hump as well for both of us in making good choices. 😁😁
@@ttocselbag5054 Funny how that happens ....lol.
I'm going to use that. It's not magic, its nature.
@@Stover205 - Rock on Stover! 😁
I’m 62 I was 205 in May 2023 I’m 5’3”. I started carnivore first of June down to 175lbs. Love it and your videos too. Thanks Mitch ..
Thanks Randy.
You might want to watch Dr Sean OMara's channel. He has great ideas on exercise, which greatly complements the carnivore diet.
Your still way over weight
My very first carnivore RUclipsr was Butter Bob Briggs, butter made my pants fall off. He did the side by side picture.
Sure do miss Butter Bob. He was a great encouragement to me back when I started my journey 8 years ago. I'm going back to carnivore not so much for the weight loss as the health improvements. I was a type 2 diabetic with A1C of 13!!!! My A1C was never in the 4s, but now it's creeping up to 5.9 and I'm falling asleep after I eat, so I know my insulin is probably too high and my blood sugar is probably technically in a diabetic range after I eat.
Sure glad Mitch came around to give us his straight, no holds barred, simple carnivore advice. He keeps me on track 😏
That’s awesome man. I just started carnivore on the 8th of this month and it’s encouraging to see a regular fella telling his story. Way to go, Mitch!
Thanks so much
I am a home care nurse, and specifically deal mostly with wound care. You would not believe the festering wounds that I have to deal with on a daily basis. One of the first things we establish is to make sure that the person is eating at least some of a healthy diet. Start the day off with an orange, graham crackers, Ensure/ Boost, toast with jam. Maybe an egg. This is pretty universal. Including senior Long Term Care and homes, I am in both.
Lunch: pasta, green beans, some small meat, bun, margarine, fruit.
Diner: small meat, pasta or rice, veggies, bun, margarine.
Snacks: always fruit, cookies, crackers, sweets.
Almost universal. Only exception would be the few that had their kids take over their diets and then we see heavy vegetarian influences desperately trying to stop the cog decline that is so often the case. Smoothies with fruit, flax seeds, veggies.
They are melting… their wounds are festering and we barely get one healed before another one erupts. Weeks, months, and the dressings are expensive, from honey infused, silver, anti microbial, seaweed! Amazing stuff! But very little difference in how long it takes to heal.
I had a breakdown 2 months ago. Imagine a job that you never succeed at. I basically help people control the smelly exudate from their festering wounds.
I am a few months into studying carnivore diets, etc, and the antidotal cases, and I am seeing the one thing that all my patients have in common. Their diets.
My diet.
Well said! Their diet is based strictly on the government and medical community dietary guidelines, deficient in virtually everything, and about the only healthy thing they feed those people is the one egg once in a while. It's criminal!
It’s going to be even harder to go back to work with this realisation… how’s it going?
Also, yes it’s criminal.
I’m an RN that is learning more and more about carnivore diet. Any chance you could get ONE patient to go carnivore? I’d love to see what happens to their wound.
@GenRN I have had a venous stasis ulcer on my leg for 3 years now. It's not terribly bad, but it won't heal and got better with treatment but when i couldn't afford $750 or more a week for treatment i had to quit going and it got worse again. I don't want to lose my leg! I'm about to give this carnivore thing a go, for that reason, plus a host of others. Big thanks to Mitch and Dr. Ken Berry and a few other carnivore influences for informing and motivating me to do this. I have full faith that if I can stick with this my leg ulcer days are going be over. Hope you have patients that will take their Healthcare into their own hands and do the same. I work in a nursing home so I know how hard it is to see people suffering. And the sugary crap they feed them there on a daily basis
Sounds like the daily diet at the nursing home where I work. Except they have cake or pie or cookies or ice cream for lunch AND supper meal. Plus the snacks. Cinnamon rolls that are bigger than their entrée
I will celebrate my 1st Carni-verssary m. I'M now 72 and WOW this has dramatically changed my life and health for the GOOD! I took a before pic and how horrible I looked. I can now tolerate the AZ heat better also. Im unrecognizable also from a year ago. Haazaah!!❤
I love the way you have not simply accepted your shape as ‘the way it is’! Most people around me are not happy with their weight and their gradually worsening health, but are enslaved by their carb addition which they describe as ‘love of food’ !
Sad but true. The answers are out there, but as they say, "you can lead a horse to water ...". That's addiction for you, cark addicts "love" food, alcoholics "love" alcohol, etc.
It is so good for us eating carnivore. I was a vegan vegetarian and could not get to a slim version of me. Two months on carnivore and I was weighing less than when I was 20 years old.Now over 50 and still less than all my years as a very fit vegetarian always weight conscious.
I BELIEVE IT...!👍🏆👍 It's Day 111 of my 99% Meat Diet.💪Went from XXL Shirts🎽 to Medium. 48" Jeans👖to 32".➡ Ate 'One Meal A Day'(OMAD)(23.5 hr Fasting) until August. Ate 'One Meal Every Other Day'(OMEOD) for 2wks of August(47.5 hr Fasting)! Known as Alternate Day intermittent Fasting(ADIF). Now doing Keto OMAD & Every Other Day 100-200 gr Unpasteurized Raw Sauerkraut is my only food for the day & it fixed my severe stomach problem! Fatty liver/psoriasis gone, Improved mental Clarity, Sharper Eyesight, healthy gums, Stomach healed etc.....!
But the doctors say that's not possible. We must have magic mirrors or something.
I'm 55. Highest weight was 341. I'm aprox 190 now, trying to stick to carnivore (I'm a carb addict!). Aprox 26% body fat, still working it down. My step father recently told me I look gaunt. LMAO. I'm stronger, more muscles and less fat and feeling the best I have in more than 3 decades, but I look "gaunt". Keep up the great work! Enjoying your videos.
Ignore all that, I do.
He probably meant " you are making ME look fat!"
I had just hit the top of "normal" weight range for my height, (a weight that was considered chunky when I weighed the same at graduation in 1990) when my coworkers started telling me I was "too skinny." I'm now 25 lbs heavier and technically obese but everyone calls me "curvy" and think I look great. Insane
63 years old, been on Keto for 5 or 6 years, lost 40-45 lbs but stuck there for the last 3-4 years(started at 253lbs)....Went full Carnivore 7 months ago, lost an additional 45-50 lbs (now 163 lbs)....Lost a total of ~90 lbs, this is what I weighed at 20 years old.....Amazing results, feel superb, most maladies gone, we are being played by the "system".
No doubt about it. Same for me, magic happened when I nixed the plants completely!
It's great to see these pictures. I'll be 64 soon and I've been a Carnivore for 3.5 years. I'm got going back!
I can understand why someone you know might think your skinny. I mean it’s Al about what we are used to. I remember as a kid there was the occasional fat person. Now you could go all day and be lucky to see one “skinny” person! Thanks for sharing
Too inspiring 😊. I'm gonna do it. As a 5'9 68yold at 235lbs Fall 2022, I'm now stuck since June at 200lbs on meat with salads, low carbs and occasional junk (I never met a muffin I didn't like!) exercising 3 days a week. Need the breakaway to get to my next goal...175lbs...I clearly see my natural inclination toward your way of eating. Your Best advice..."if you don't buy it, you won't eat it." Thank you.
Based on the comments like yours, I feel good about doing all this work, as it really seems to be motivating a large group of people.
it makes me happy to see you so proud of your results. you look great.
Thanks so much
I think the complaint almost everyone has about carnivore, is that they didn't find it earlier. You're doing a great job, Mitch. Cheers.
That's very true, William
Thanks Mitch... It's brave to make a video like this. I can't wait to get to 95 pounds again... At age 29 I was 86 pounds and was not skinny, but now at my age anything under 100 pounds would be very nice indeed for my height of 55 inches. It is a strange life to be a miniature person and I love it, but not when I am 144 pounds like today. I need to lose about 34% of my present weight. It's daunting.
You can do it!
It is always nice comparing pics from the past to now. I am in awe of the change how my body transformed after 6months. Just amazing what the carnivore diet did. Thanks for sharing your pics. Remarkable.
Oh boy, I am in 70's and down to 240 lbs. from 285 lbs. a few years ago. However in the last few months I have lost another 50 lbs. but I still have a belly. And I think that is because of my weak muscles. All summer I have been working on standing up out of a chair without using my arms. Which I will need in my 80's. I hope my English was ok after that stroke 5-6 years ago.
English is fine. I hope you continue to get better.
Hey’ super congratulations. I am 74 and I already lost 20 psd. Carnivore all the way...I am on my fourth month. Thank you so much for your video...I was afraid to be too old. ❤
I am doing this especially for other people like me. Thanks for the kind words.
Not too "old" on carnivore. Do it so u can age in reverse too
And, congratulations on the weight lost, and on the health and life you are GAINING every day
You look fantastic! You inspire me as I’m just 4 days in on my carnivore journey. Thank you for sharing this!
Thanks so much.
Hi Mitch 👋. It looks like you have always been a handsome man. Looking at your before and after pictures, I am amazed at the difference. Wow!! You have done a fantastic job in taking care of yourself being on the Carnivore way of life. Keep up the good work. 😊
Thanks Margaret
Super duper Uncle Mitch, I have had a life changing experience in the last 2 weeks. I had a brain tumor that was bleeding, collapsed, ED, chopper, op, fixed out on Weds then the new me.

Thank you my friend.
Your message rings true to me and resonates with the changes I need at 74 to make. @@OldGuyCarnivore
I am so glad I found this older video, Mitch. This is very helpful to show to all people. Even people that are not carnivores that find you by accident. I’m guessing that a lot of people, having seen the side-by-side, would definitely consider carnivore or at least keto as an option. I have plenty of old videos of me, looking like the Pillsbury doughboy as well and it’s hard for me to even look at them because I am disgusted with what I let myself become. The good thing is I am down to between 150 and 155, I am 5 foot nine and a 58-year-old man. I’m 16 days on carnivore and really don’t wanna lose anymore weight but just want to clean up my body, fix some health ailments, and Lift heavier weights. Thank God for people like you, Mitch. I love your videos.
Very nice of you to say, thank you. Just keep doing what you're doing, let your weight end up where it ends up.
Wow! Amazing transformation! I'm looking to go on Carnivore to improve my health and lose weight. Your journey is an inspiration!
Thank you Rob.
What a fabulous transformation! Thank u for sharing your journey with us. I know it wasn't easy to do that. But, the proof is there now for all to see. And, to hopefully want that for themselves and they will do it, too.
Mitch, I just happened upon your video. I'm 76 also and just started easing into the carnivore diet about 3 weeks ago to try to reverse my non alcohol fatty liver. Obviously too soon to know anything but I have lost 7 lbs. I found your results to be quite encouraging and congrats to you by the way. The comparison photos spoke volumes and I think you're correct about not being too thin. Friends and family are most likely just used to seeing you as a plump guy. Only a year and such amazing results.
I hope I can show you what's possible, especially reversing the fatty liver. May take a month or 3, but it will happen. Let me know when you have done it. Best of luck, see you at 100.
Great video, thanks for sharing you're pictures with us !!
My pleasure!
As a person who loves a fuller face on people, I think you look great in the first shot BUT I understand wanting to feel better and as we age having a saggy face/skin goes hand-in-hand with aging so feeling better is the most important thing no matter how skinny my face looks as I lose!
Hi Mitch.
I've gained more info and inspiration from your videos than any others I have seen.
I'm 68 and have been diabetic for 20 years. Always been overweight and tried every diet out there. Your videos have explained so much especially with regards to addiction. I now feel confident enough to start .
Thank you.
I'll keep watching
Many thanks, my friend, and good luck.
I need an update from you sir
@@1littlefishWhat would you like to know?
How is the change going Stephen? Have you stuck to it at all?
Hi Mitch you looked good no matter what, but if you didn't feel your best, now your really thin. You look great now!
Thank you
I lost 50 pounds in six months and the difference is astounding. I was 220 pounds at 5.7 and looked like a keg in draw string pants because nothing else fitted around my belly. For the last 2 months I'm hovering around 170 pounds, not going up or down, so that seems to be my weight, but the transformation has not stopped. Every month I see a difference. The skin is tightening up, muscle definition is getting better and general health is amazing. No gout attack for 8 month with no medication.
I can only recommend the carnivore lifestyle to any sceptic, like I was. Forget the science, just do it and find out for yourself.
Actually Thomas, all the REAL science backs this up 100%. The rest is propaganda. Thanks.
Hay Mitch, thank you for the update, and the encouragement. I’m 10 years your junior. My wife and I started carnivore a few months back. So far so good. A few misshapes, shouldn’t have eaten that, and people coming to visit with opinions and poor food choices. Carnivore is really pretty easy, but the mental, social, and old habits are not easy. However, I’m learning a lot about myself, people around me, and how our SAD diet is messing with our wallets, our health, and wellbeing. Nuff said, may your steaks be cooked right, and your life fore filling.
Thank you very much, you too
Congratulations Mitch. I have been carnivore for 5 years now, at 72 years young this is the best thing i have ever done. Never going back to the SAD diet.
My goodness! Huge transformation and who knew meat heals like that! Good on you! 😃
i just love before and after carnivore videos.
Hey Mitch, Good Job !!! 👌I love listening to You & Dr. Berry for years !! Such Motivation to hear Both of You Guys talk !! Thanks So Much .. 🤗 💕
Thanks so much!
Hi Mitch.
I too, have been on the proverbial "yo-yo" with my weight, almost all of my adult life.
I'm 71yo and at my heaviest, three years ago, l was 260lbs. I'm "currently at 176lbs" and five weeks ago, when l first started on the carnivore way of eating, l weighed in at 188lbs. So a 12lb loss of weight, in five weeks, makes me very happy indeed. I will emphasise however, l initially decided to give the carnivore lifestyle way of eating a try, was first and foremost for health reasons, over and above the additional benefits of weight loss, although, it in part, was indirectly contributing to my health issues too.
Food allergies were causing me so many health problems, ( l won't bore you with the details) l had to do something to improve my quality of life and get off the awful medications that were also adding to my daily misery.
After just five weeks in, l'm slowly improving in numerous ways, better quality of sleep, improved mood, (a big plus😊)
not snacking at night and slight improvement in energy.
Already, with these slight improvements and no negative problems to comment on, l'm hooked on this carnivore way of eating forever.
Mitch, you truly are an inspiration to all that watch your excellent channel and l'm so fortunate to have come upon it.
Cheers from Australia. 🇦🇺 😊
Thanks for the kind words, my friend.
How is your progress going Brian?
Your last video didn't allow comments, so i'll comment here. I know where your coming frome. Please don't give up thats what they want. We watch you everyday.
Would every other day be OK. I think that will take a lot of the pressure off.
This is truly an amazing transformation. Congrats and you look fabulous today. Im totally convinced by my results that carnivore is THE ANSWER
Wow Mitch, add more 15lbs list and minus 15 years and I parallel your story to the T. Incredible.. 61 now and 15 Month carnivore. Same deal with shirts, nice to tuck them in again, from XL to med size now. Lots of extra skin, did you have to address that? Any fasting or do you figure it will disappear slowly? I really feel for those losing 100lbs plus but in some ways I see it as a badge of honor from the battle of the bulge!! Maybe I'll have it for the rest of my life as a reminder I used to fit in that skin. You are an inspiration my friend!! 🥩🧈🥓🍳👍✌️
Great JMP. I don't have too much loose skin because I never got too obese, most 40-50 pounds. I still have some around my middle and hips where the love handles and the belly used to reside ...LOL
I'm 52 years old. Started carnivore last summer and had some cheat days in there as well and I now have the best body I've ever had in my life. I thought my waist was good before and it went from a 38 to a 32 and now I see my abs defined for the first time in my life. Never had a good body my entire life and now my deck system shows him in the top 2% for lowest body fat percentage for someone my age. This is amazing
I know how you feel. I just got a comment from someone asking why all the carnivore men are always posting pictures with their shirts off. I almost hit the floor laughing. After considering some cutting answers, I opted for silence ,,,,,,,,,LOL
Awesome Mitch, I am very happy for you! Thank you for sharing your journey.
Happy to.
You're in remarkable shape! One year in on carnivore, recovering from health damages from 7 years of veganism.
Wow what a transformation Mitch!! You are such an inspiration to other people who have been fighting with diets their whole lives. Thank you for making this video.
Thanks so much for that, Robbie
I started carnivore 2 weeks ago and I'm loving it. My kitchen, pantry and fridge don't look anything like yours because my husband is still eating SAD foods. He loves meat, but has no interest in going carnivore. He is not seeing how unhealthy he really is because he is actually underweight. He is busy all the time- very active, but I see him losing muscle tone that he used to have. I could sure use some tips on getting him onboard with carnivore.
That's tough. Ken Berry's answer to that question is you can't push, only let him see the changes in you and get interested in his own time.
Ha, yes. I can believe that people who've known you think, "he's too thin." We're so used to seeing fat people. At the grocery store - that is all I see. Obesity run amok. You see a skinny person and you think, wow. Commercials now feature fat people. When we do our nightly walk at the mall, all the pictures in the windows feature fat people. Even Victoria's Secret has been putting fat women in skimpy bras and bikini bottoms in their window display. We walked thru Kohls the other day - they have fat manikins dressed up in sports wear. They want us to consider this "the new norm." Ridiculous! But it is a struggle. My husband and I both have yo-yoed too. So, I totally appreciated this video. Truth to told.
Yes, sadly I agree, it has just become enormously profitable to change our mindset to this new normal.
Wonderful work on your Carnivore journey!
AND this is an excellent video that I can share with my non-Carnivore friends.🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for sharing your journey with us
They will still find an excuse to tell you it will kill you ....lol
Wow! Great testimony and evidence that what you eat truly effects your health and mentality! Keep up the good work!
Thank you.
You are motivating me to find old pics and get motivated while I continue- I’m 2 weeks in ❤
Go for it!
I'm very impressed by the flatness of your upper stomach. The Liver is in that area. My upper stomach area is quite fat. You've inspired me to try and flatten it out. 🙂
Thank you. That's the first time in my life I have ever seen hints of abs.
I don't even think the abs are necessary because the lack of fat and the natural broadness of your trunk makes you look extremely fit and healthy. You look strong and not scrawny. @@OldGuyCarnivore
Came across your channel two days ago looking for chuck roast crockpot recipes. Super simple.
Im a Bright Line Eater but also carnivore.
4 bright lines.
No sugar
No flour of any kind
Weigh and measure my food
3 meals a day No snacking
I have some berries and cream but mostly butter - beef - bacon and eggs.
I’m an old Bob Briggs adhérant.
Also 70 years old. Went from 270 to 160. Then after two hip replacements and a heart attack went up to 220. Now back to 190 going for 175 as my goal weight.
You have a great podcast. Keep it up.

8.27k subscribers as at 27 August 2023. Mitch, you started your drone channel four years ago and switched it to a carnivore lifestyle channel one month ago yet your carnivore videos are smashing it. You no BS down-to-earth style way of sharing your experience, journey and wisdom is awesome. I'm picking that by the end of 2023 you'll have over 100k in subscribers.
53 year old male here that has pivoted between 100% vegan supposedly 'whole' food plant based to low carb omnivore over the years with lots of raw greens like kale. I felt shit on the vegan diet after a couple over months. After binge watching your videos l'm going all in for 30 days. Nothing but grass fed red meat, one 100g of raw grass fed lamb liver per week, small amount of ghee, eggs, canned sardines in water, and 24 hour fermented kefir using kefir grains and organic grass fed full fat A2 milk (the 24 hour ferment halves the carbs and gives more than a dozen stains of probiotics). The milk has a real yellow tinge to it from the good fats.
Looking forward to seeing the benefit in physical AND mental health.
Keeping on keeping it real mate. Your channel is going to take off!! Massive thanks from New Zealand. 👍 Regards Glenn
Thanks Glenn, I appreciate the encouragement. Let me know your progress as you go forward with your plan.
Keep it going, don’t get to fused on what you eat just make sure you eat enough meat. Best being ruminate muscle meat
I’m glad I’m seeing more NZers on these comments lately.
How are things with you now?
How’s progress Glenn? Did you stick with it or change to something else? Going to have to try 24hr kefir with A2. I’m in nz too.
Great job my friend. One thing I will add BMI is not the best way to see if you are overweight or underweight, as muscular men end up showing as obese. What’s better is waist to height. Dr Berry taught me that , and Mr buff DrChaffe also. Keep it going and eat meat! ❤
I don't think I'll ever get that muscular ....lol
@@OldGuyCarnivore Dr Chafffe is very muscular. Which is fine . But to me a little intimidating! Lolol
The Best by far way to do it is to go get your body fat percentage from a DEXA scan it's like a hundred maybe $150 and it's totally worth it because now if you lose weight you can see if you lost fat or muscle. Do it a couple times a year. I weighed 170 a few years ago and everyone said I look terrible now I weigh about that and look totally different way more muscular
@@williewiner4161 I wouldn't want him mad at me ....LOL
Hi Mitch I am 74 and I relate to you and your journey thus far in your life. Keep up the good work on your journey. It is an inspiration for myself beginning a new life without carbs and sugar. I hope a year from now I can do some before and after photos also. Looking forward to your future inspiration.
Thanks Dave, I'll look forward to seeing those photos.
17 days in and I’m already down 16 lbs. Best decision I’ve ever made.
👍👍👍
When I look back at my yoyo diet I see the same results. I am doing keto. Have lost 35 pounds since May 18th. I am 67 and was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. I go for blood work next month and I am sure I will be in remission. You are an inspiration. Was up above 200 and now holding at 165.
That's great!
All I can say is WOW! Amazing transformation (including the push-ups)!
Thank you
Hey from Australia, Mitch. I'm 55M,carnivore for 6 months, and loving it, losing weight, gaining health and fitness.
Just wanted to mention that many of your photos are either named for the year they were tajen(you're underestimating some of the years. But the story remains a great testament to your journey. Congratulations.
Probably, I was estimating most of the time.
@@OldGuyCarnivore I figured.. My past career in IT makes me notice such things.. 🤣👍
Thank you for the encouragement. I'm just starting my journey.
Enjoyed seeing the changes in you in just a year! 😊
I really relate to looking at yourself and being OMG. Its mind blowing how this one simple change in what goes in your mouth completely changes your whole body and world. I blew up as a teen and yo-yoed ever since but now, like you I am leaner than I ever have. Its not just weight, actually I've barely lost 5kg on the scale but golly gee my waist is SO slim and I feel amazingly well. Keep up the content as its great to see a regular guy setting a great example. As much as the high profile names are interesting I was convinced to go carnivore by people like you, a regular joe that made it real.
Thanks for kind words.
Congrats on your success hubby and I started carnivore 4 weeks ago help hubby lose weight and improve his health and lose belly weight
I am going to try carnivore again with intermittent fasting thank you your videos are very encouraging
Go for it!
Hi Mitch, congrats on your carnivore weight loss, but i think you were too hard on yourself because you look good in all your pictures; at least to me! You never looked overly heavy in my opinion! Keep up the good work as will I and thanks for the day off😁
For me it was more about health. I had many problems. The weight loss happened as a side effect of proper nutrition.
You've done an awesome job on carnivore! Great oicture-walk down memory lane. Like you, I don't have many fat pictures, hard to look at anyway. Thanks for sharing, Mitch.
I love you video s . And just about everything you said is exactly what I’ve experienced. I’m 74 next month and have never felt better. If it wasn’t for Dr Ken Berry, I would still be pre diabetic.and having only one kidney to boot high blood pressure , he was an absolute life saver. I also now have a low carb Dr , and that’s so reassuring because he doesn’t just write out scripts for everything. Thanks Mitch . Looking forward to your videos.
Ken Berry is my hero!
Mine too !
Keep up the great CARNIVORE WAY OF EATING!!
Thanks!
Thanks again!
You’re one of my Fave channels! Ty!♥️God Bless you ! Appreciate your time and WISDOM!
You are so welcome
Very inspiring, Mitch! I congratulate you on your progress, and look forward to experiencing similar xhanges in my own body. I have a long list of things that need 'fixing'.
Gonna show this video to my wife tonight, and hopefully she'll be a bit more supportive of what I'm doing after seeing how carnivore has helped you.
Hope so!
Great job and great videos. Hope your channel rises to the top!
Thank you very much.
I’m at about 210 down from my heaviest at 240. I’m often 220. What’s shocking is that nobody ever tells me anything about it. They pretend they don’t notice that I’m 20 lbs heavier than when they last saw me. My goal for this year is to get to my lowest weight as an adult, 180. I haven’t been convinced that it’s enough weight to really change my life or how others see me but now I’m curious to find out.
Good job. I'm carnivore andvi feel amazing. Plus I find it easy to keep and gain muscle now. 😊
Thanks for sharing this very inspirational video. What you observe in the photos are bio markers that Dr Sean Omara talks about specifically the inflammation in the face (round) vs a leaner healthier face and the belly fat to a flat narrow waistline. You appear to have eliminated the harmful visceral fat amazingly in just one year! Great job and thanks for the channel!
I am a fan of O'mara too. My digital scale tells me I have almost no visceral fat left although I don't think that they are as accurate as an actual scan.
What a profound change, Mitch! Thank you for sharing!
Hi Mitch. Once again- you rock. Look toward to your videos. Thanks for your efforts. Enjoy the day. Regina from the coast of Massachusetts
Thanks you Regina
Awesome that you were able to see reduction in inflammation - the physical and psychological transformations are amazing!
I am still blown away every day.
Yeah, I topped out at 210 and then got back down to the 150 that is healthy for me at 5'10". I don't really have many "fat pics" either because, like you, I threw them out or I just avoided ever having my picture taken.
I'm 82 & starting a slow carnivore taking my time, I'm at 150lbs at 5'-4" & want to maintain that weight, I'm down from 166, & belly hanging over my belt.
Wow, good for you. Keep pushing on. Hope it is working out for you Richard.
You just motivated me to go to the gym thank you
I'm at the gym now myself, between sets...lol
Looking great. Getting rid of that visceral fat. 👍👍
3 months in, with a partner that thinks i am nuts. I will continue and just won't mind the dirty looks. Funny thing is I put in a large garden, and we own a chocolate and cake shop. I started for mental health and other health issues, so weight loss secondary. However really liking my new look. Down 40 pounds, lost 4 inches of my bellybutton measurement. Walking 5 miles per day, slug prior, slug for two years in retirement. You are looking great I have 9 years to catch up to you. Loved your video 😊😊
Chocolate and cake shop! Maybe you should sell it and buy a butcher shop .....LOL
How has your mental health improved?
Hi new to your channel.. wow what a huge difference! I like to see mature people doing this bc im just starting and struggling. I started to think too old for this way of eating. Thanks for sharing it' made me reconsider.
You're welcome
Enough of you? We can't get enough of the legend.
Thanks, William
Just fantastic! Thank you for sharing this and for reinforcing my conviction to this lifestyle. I have already picked up some good cooking tips from your other videos!
You are so welcome!
Almost 2 months on carnivore and I have lost around 20 pounds. Not to mention the mental clarity has improved by leaps and bounds. My bp is down and I feel I can someday throw my cpap machine in the trash. Thank you sir for the video... you look great!! Congratulations
Thanks so much!
You’re one of my inspirations.
The Carnivore Clan is pretty awesome. Everyone working together to support each other.
I bought 1 of the carbon steel pans to cook my steaks but having an electric stove it’s kind of hard to cook it. But I have a lot of steaks and look forward to the challenge.
The new pan should actually even out the heat from the burner. I'm sure it will work beautifully!
@@OldGuyCarnivore trial and error.
I do appreciate your videos
Thanks Mitch.Beautiful story.🌷
I look forward to a year down the road. You look so healthy. I'm only 20 days in.
impressive ! Thank you for your testimony! For my part, I switched to carnivore for three months and the results are incredible too. I suffer from a mood disorder and have never felt better. I lost 5 kilos (I wasn't very fat to begin with). I lost visceral fat (no more love handles) and my face changed too. I returned to sport and am in much better physical condition. I will not go back to my old diet!
That's really great to hear, congratulations
