INFORMATION ABOUT Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (which was not part of this video, but I will share this information anyway):
If you aren’t healing and feeling MUCH better after six months of eating this way, I would encourage you to look into other possible causes including Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS).

If you need help with addiction, tracking, macros, digestion, sleep, or just some support and accountability, I would love to work with you here: myzerocarblife.com/group-coaching/. -Kelly ❤
Every day its like you read my mind. I have a choice xxx
Kelly, you are precious. Thank you for being so real. I have Lipedema and Lymphedema and I can't find hope. I keep saying why bother when I look this way and can't change it. I need to lose weight badly, I'm riddled with diseases and pain. Lipedema is so ugly and painful. 😢😢😢😢😢
@@shaybee6893hi there , so sorry to hear of your diagnosis and that you feel so discouraged. Please hang in there and take small -baby steps. I pray you receive your breakthrough. I also have lipedema and I am embracing my body and helping it heal one step at a time. I’ve committed to carnivore for 90days as per Dr Ken Berry advise, so far NAFLD is gone, diabetes levels has improved drastically and I’m hoping to see weight loss results as well. Our bodies have a lot of internal healing to process before moving to weight loss which ultimately affects lipedema and lymphedema appearance. Some have seen amazing results with diet and exercise and I am not keen on the surgery until I try all I can natural way. I pray you be healed of your conditions and see the results you so desire, very soon.🙌🏽🌈💜
I had a gastric bypass and gallbladder removed.
I can only eat a small amount of food.
Will eating carnivore work for me?
Yes
I’m 86, never too late to learn. Living in a senior apartment, ( not assisted) most people are younger, in terrible condition. My goal is to avoid the “home”. Great video!
I'm 82 and my friends keep asking me why at this age I don't just "eat what I want ?" Like you, I want to remain independent and sprightly for as long as possible.😊
Yes, "most people" are in terrible condition, and their health is being ruined thanks to the horrific kabuki and lies from Big Pharma, Big Ag, our government lies about what is a PROPER HUMAN DIET IS OR ISNT. Grocry strores are in on it too.. what ever makes them the most money.. I did merchandizing for a few years.. and I watched the "snack/garage" isle grow to the monster it is now.. I can also tell you that EVERYTIME I go shopping.. I purposefull look at watch that isle.. and without fail.. it always has the most traffic over all other isles. The 2nd most traveld area is the Bakery where all the break, cakes, treats are.. IT'S AMAZING.. We dont need flours or grains of any type, shape or form, and we definitely dont need sugar and high carb foods. Personally... I think Dr. Chaffee is correct about plant toxins as well. so..Enjoy a good steak ... everyday... is my motto.
Really proud of you! I work in healthcare and I see so many people that are my age (55) and younger with deplorable health. I know it’s because of what they eat, drink, smoke, and sedentary lifestyle. People can’t believe I am the age I am. Trying to avoid terrible health and maintain quality of life while avoiding the “home” in the future myself.
You go girl! I'm 76 and have been ketovore for 10 months. It works!!
Thanks, Kelly. I’ve been hanging off the wagon for about 6 mos. I had a very sad, life altering event and have re gained a few lbs, and seen some previously positively changed health problems activate again. I needed this! ❤
I've started using the same terms that drug addicts or alcoholics...My name is Janet and I'm a sugar addict and I'm sober 22days!!!
Hi Janet, I am a sugar addict.
42 days sober. 💪
I have done the same thing!!! I am carb sober for 21 days. We are in the same place. When people ask me if I want some (cake, donuts, etc) I say “I don’t do drugs anymore…” 😂
@@rlane1lsu haha nice, what reactions do you get to that?
Scoffing! I have even said “if an alcoholic told you that they don’t drink anymore would you scoff or roll your eyes at them? Sugar is a drug like alcohol.” Not in a rude way, just in a matter of fact way. People need to do a mindshift on sugar and carbs.
I love this! I’m going to adopt this too!🎉🎉
As a child I had boils on my gums and eczema covering my body. I was in the Children's hospital and no one could figure it out. As an adult I had cystic acne, on Accutane 2x, Alopecia Aereata, Vitiligo and migraines. It was ALL from my diet. I just started Carnivore and all problems are healed now. This video is so inspiring!
Did your Vitiligo re-pigment fully?
Thanks Kelly! I really needed this today. Got off of sugar 5 years ago, lost 90 lbs. Quit smoking 7 months ago and started eating sugar free Keto treats. Now 35 lbs gained I realize maybe I'm not addicted to just sugar but the sweet taste. Whether its sugar, sugar alcohol, monkfruit, stevia, allulose, etc doesn't matter. So my name is Allan, I'm a sweet addict and this is my day 0, starting again. I'm choosing to eat nutritious meat today and move my body.
Kudos to you for not giving up on your journey.
Welcome Allen. Me too
Same here. Can’t eat any sweet flavored stuff… including flavored water.😢 hang in there .
There are those of us who have addictive chemistry. Admitting this reality is the best start.
I also gained weight eating keto treats. I threw one to many pity parties for myself. I’ve been dealing with kidney disease and allowed myself to wallow. No more… I’m back driving my own wagon straight to the butcher’s
Hi! Today is day one for me on the Carnivore journey. I went to Aldi and bought meat, cheese, eggs and water. I looked at the vegetables and fruit, and cookies and readymade meals and inwardly said “Christine, you know this is poisonous to you! You know they make you physically sick! Remember the hours of pain on the toilet… you must get a grip at 58 - this is your chance to lose weight, lose the pain and lose the guilt…. “ Ive spent the last two weeks studying you and others and so here I am…. I’m determined to get healthier and although I understand this might be tough, I’m going to do it for the long haul! Thank you for encouraging us!
I started the carnivore diet due to diabetes, kidney failure, and a host of other health problems, but I live with two family members that also had health issues and one of them was a major sugar addict. We decided as a household to start the diet together and that began with throwing out all carbs and sugar ingredients (all unopened packages were donated to a local community group). With only the carnivore foods in the household it was easier, but still difficult to stay away from sugar. At first every commercial on tv reminded us of what we use to eat, but now I see all of that as killer foods. What I was eating was killing me slowly. We don't eat out, we go home to eat to stay away from temptation, and as I dropped weight and reversed the diabetes and kidney failure, I told myself over and over that I was not only healing, but saving my own life. I was doing that, not medication, not a transplant, not another person was saving my life, "I" was the one who was saving my life by fighting the urge to do the easy thing and eat the foods that are not only addictive, but cause cravings, and lead to major health problems. The sugar addict in the family is having a more difficult time, but she says it's so much easier to know there's nothing in the pantry or refrigerator to quickly grab. We threw out the sugar and carbs and we cook loads of meat ahead of time so we can have plenty of food and a variety on hand for meals. We also thought that we couldn't afford the carnivore diet, but once you stop buying carbs, sugar, and sauces with sugar we found that we now spend less on groceries. We only drink water and coffee, and we just hit our first year anniversary on the carnivore diet. We all dropped weight and reversed medical issues, while discovering that skin problems and irritable bowel syndrome was flaring up from sugar, carbs, fruit, and vegetables. We eat the carnivore diet but I don't think of it as a diet, I think of it as a life change. I had to make the choice to change my life and stop killing myself slowly.
Fantastic❤
🎉🎉🎉
So inspiring!
Best testimonial I have read.... Stay strong , Mentally, Physically and Spiritually.... You inspired me more than I thought possible.. So very much pressed on my heart and BRAIN!!!
@@warrenlafond1878 Thank you. I wish you the best.
I am a total Food addict and have lost 37lbs from Carnivore diet since February 1st. I no longer have sugar cravings!
I'm 553 days carnivore/Lion and I still get cravings for certain sweets. I've always preferred salty crunchy stuff but I get lots of salt so never crave that. I fibd the sugar craving to be strange and very hard to fight through. I do not use stevia or any other "non sugar" product and NEVER anything ending in "LOSE". I just find it very odd because I never craved sweets in the first place. I stay the course, have lost my 110 pounds I needed to shed and feel awsome bring carnivore.
Would you please share what you eat in a day? I’m 4 weeks in and have lost nothing and still feel like crap.
@@meatdogWould you also share what you eat in a day…..Im at a point where I’m very discouraged.
@@M.Sforza 2 eggs and 4 slices bacon with coffee with heavy cream and 2 drops of iodine. No lunch. Dinner is 4 fatty hamburgers or a large fatty ribeye. Lots of water during the day. Walk on the treadmill for 45 minutes daily.
Good luck!
I didn’t just fall off the wagon, I fell off and rolled face down into the ditch. 😂
Not only was this video excellent, but also perfect timing. I am here to pull myself back up.
As to the person referenced in your story…can completely relate to their plight.
Me too!
🥂 Here's to choosing to get back on the wagon! ❤
I’m right there with you.
Don't stop girls or I will run up your back..that's how much I love sugar! I'm Southern and food has been constantly shoved at me😂 On Cdiet 2 months and lost 20 lbs and no cravings now(Thk God) but I know I miss it😢. Food is boring now. Was told I needed a hobby😂 I saw the Glucose Revolution vid but scared to chg again now
Has anyone with high blood pressure noticed that if they eat a lot more fat blood pressure will go up? I was eating moderate amount of fat on my meat and I think I was probably fine with that. I think the problem may stem from the salt and I do use Redmond's. I believe I'm just sensitive. I've started again, cut back on my salt and more fat with my meat and so far so good. Can anyone relate ?
"Everyone is not doing it." - that really resonates with me. There are 3 slim ladies in a club I'm in and the rest are mildly to outright overweight. Guess what the 3 slim ones have in common? They don't eat the desserts that are put out at the club meetings. They don't talk about it in front of the others, but, in private, they have told me they avoid sugar. If you see someone who is middle aged and slim, there's a good chance they purposefully avoid processed food and sugar!
I am driving this *fabulous* wagon. I
choose to eat animal products today I
choose to take a walk. I choose to make
this day a success, knowing that it will no
happen by accident. It won't be a fluke.
This awesome day is going to happen by
choice, and I choose to do the work.
Kelly Hogan Carnivore Slogan
🥓🧡🥓
I love it!!!!
I drove the wagon off a cliff! Heres to climbing back on...again!
😅💪🏼🙌🏼
Lol😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Same here!!
Too real 😂
Same. Today is day one. (again)
When I was fat and sick, I did crunchs twice a day. Captain in the morning and Nestles in the afternoon.
Love this made me laugh
I have never been a moderator either. I cannot eat just one. If I taste it, the raging lion takes over. I agree that filling your body with nutrition makes the difference.
Thank you Kelly. I'm an 82 year old carb and sugar addict and still sometimes take a leap off my wagon. Each time, as I clamber back up those steps I tell myself how good the exercise is for my elderly thigh muscles. When I listen to your compassionate and inspiration talks I feel less alone.❤
Kelly is the beacon of light that brought me safely to the harbour of Carnivore. I was lost in the darkness and torment of metabolic syndrome. I was a 57 year old heart attack waiting to happen. Then I saw her with Dr Berry, "Woman Eats Only Meat For 13 Years". My life has gone from Hell to Hope. No more T2D, weight gone from 293lbs to 200lbs, waist from 44 to 38, triglyceride smashed from dangerously high to low. One frustrating side show is that the money minded mainstream medical industry seems less than delighted. My "cholesterol" is high. The drug pushers tried to sell me statins! The reverse psychology says that as Carnivores our "cholesterol" has returned to a healthy level. The carb munchers and statin users have artificially low levels. So thank you Kelly Hogan, ❤ you for the rest of my time on earth. Thank you Dr Berry and a very special thank you to Dr Benjamin Dunlap who saved Kelly's life 🙏
I'm a 62 yr old male and I am a sugar/carb addict. I've been full carnivore for 8 weeks now but before that, I was a fairly low carb, keto guy. But until I went FULL carnivore, I didn't realize the freedom that you get from your cravings. It not just the "no cravings." It's the FREEDOM from them! Don't just think of it as just carnivore. Think of it as freedom from cravings. You will have the power, you will be in control. Keto was good to me. I lost almost 60 lbs. doing keto. But I would put back on 10, then 15, then 20 lbs. Then lose it again, up and down, over and over. Going carnivore allows you to control your sugar/carb addiction.
I work for a national overnight delivery company. I deliver to all kinds of medical offices, Urgent Care's, pharmacies. THEY ARE PACKED every day. Keep CHOOSING your food choices. Carnivore is worth it. Our health is priceless. Kelly you "human" aspect spins that you give us are right on point. We are human. We do fail sometimes. Just get back up and OWN YOUR WAGON!
Love your videos! Keep em coming!
Thank you for the wonderful feedback! Good stuff! ❤️
As a mother of a severe drug addict, I have learned so much on this journey with him. I do not have an addictive personality but have learned to empathize with those that do. I do not think food addiction is treated seriously enough. People think they just need more willpower etc. I honestly think some people need to spend time in addiction groups or go to rehab in order to understand and overcome their addiction to food and view it as a drug addict would. It can be as serious and overwhelming. An addict is an addict, whether it’s weed, heroin, food, pornography. Stop feeling guilty and shameful and out of control and get some help.
I understand what you're saying, but people as a whole need to stop calling plants food. And the plants are what most people have problems with being addicted to (think chips, crackers, bread, pastries, cookies, pasta - mostly grains and sugar from sugar beets or sugar cane). The only animal product that contains any amount of sugar is dairy (milk mainly). Butter, cheese don't contain much. So everyone needs to agree on the definition of food and stop calling things food which aren't. They are at best edible products, that won't unalive you immediately. Regular ice cream is a combination of what some could consider real food (milk - some people don't have health issues from consuming it, others do) and sugar, flavorings from plants if not artificial. My point with the previous sentence is pointing out that people are mostly addicted to plants (and for those of us who know, not real food).
I was never that way w/sugar like cookies or donuts…my craving are Mac & cheese (pasta) or rice dishes. I know I can never have them…been 11 months on carnivore. I’m grateful that God made His animals for us to eat. I truly respect the farmer, ranchers & my local meat shop. Grew up w/ hunters too! My husband is a hunter. Thanking God for his wild woods animals. May God be w/us all! Keep well & stay vigilant! 🦌🥩👍🏻
Carb dishes are my kryptonite as well.
Same here sugar I can take or leave but savory , mostly cheese , I cannot moderate. It also causes inflammation in me. Coffee as well. So we all have that thing that we just have to choose to walk away from.
One is to many and a 1,000 is not enough... This is the best of many KH videos on addiction and how to recover and heal.
Ain't that the truth!! I try to feed the pain of many emotions.
I appreciate you saying you ate an entire box of Krispy Kreme donuts. I did the SAME thing! The guilt came back after hearing you say that you did it too. I KNOW for a fact that it will never happen again to me or to you too! We got this!
I appreciate for all you do for this Carnivore community! You are loved by so many, Kelly!
I am such a sugar addict and I can be on the wagon, then I start giving in to the cravings. I am up 5 lbs and need to turn this around before it turns into 25! Thank you Kelly I needed this today! God Bless!
Hello,
I'm a 50-year young perimenipause woman who's in remission from chronic Rheumatoid Arthritis. I was on a weekly biologic injectible medication "Enbrel," with other prescriptions like Celebrex, Methotrexate, Tramadol & Prednisone at times that made my immune system sick and my body obese & weak starting at the age of 27. I started eating a ketogenic lifestyle in September 2019, and I'm mainly carnivore "Ketovore" now. This way of eating is the only thing that has helped my weight loss of 60 lbs, severe pain, inflammation, and other metobolic health conditions. Also, I started implementing lifting heavy weights, strength training & balance exercises 4 times a week last April. It has been a new life for me! You can seek your true health every day, starting with what you eat/drink & don't eat/drink.
Peace & Health,
Christine Peters
In my opinion this is your BEST video !!!
I'm a relatively new Carnivore follower(nearly 6 months). My "WHY" is to rid my body of a huge amount of inflamation in my 82!!! year old body. Losing 40+ pounds has been an extra bonus, though absence of over 65 yrs of constant pain since an accident is the #1 blessing in my life. I'm proof that one is never too old to renew my body !
Feeling better than I have in years!!
God Bless. 💜
I agree! This video is spot on!
Way to go! Your comment is inspiring. Thanks for sharing!
Some times I drive the wagon recklessly. Sometimes I steer it straight into the ditch. And occasionally I drag it into the woods, set fire to it and reheat a dozen stale donuts that I don’t even like!😢
Such is the power of addiction.
Pick y'self up, dust y'self off, and start all over again! There are Many with you.
Today is day one....again.
Best wishes
This video isn’t just helpful for people struggling to be strict with carnivore, it’s extremely relatable. Kelly, I wish I had this video when I was struggling to be strict with carnivore for over four years. My top was either closed, or it was fully open, I was either 100% strict or I was bingeing extremely bad. I love how this video helps to correct peoples mindset since that is where this carnivore journey begins. Cheers Kelly, thank you for another great video!👍🏽✌🏽
Hi Kelly! You’re the first person (YT channel) I gravitated toward on this journey. I love your videos!
I developed costochondritis last October and it took me a month to figure out what it was. I had been coughing for a few weeks when it started. I’m a dental hygienist (almost 30 yrs) and discovered it started in my upper back since my muscles were full of adhesions from my career. I used a back pod to help, but it never really went away and got worse when I ate high inflammatory foods! I thought I was having a heart attack! Then I couldn’t hardly breathe and I even thought I might have some sort of cancer, even though it had begun abruptly. I did a 3 day water fast and afterward I omitted the sugar foods, opting for fattier meats (which I love anyway) and some veggies and it went away. Alleluia! I’m down 8 pounds in a week and feeling so much better! Only 60 to go 😁
I needed this today. Last night I ate a meal from Popeyes. I decided to take a picture of the receipt to remind me of how shameful I felt so I wouldn’t do it again. Then it hit me! Why would I want to purposely shame myself? The food itself was not shameful. It was just food. I am not a good or bad person depending on what I eat. I am the worst about want ing food I “can’t have”. But I realized I can have any of it. It isn’t good or bad. It’s just a choice that will take me where I want to go- or keep me where I am. Thanks so much for this!
THIS! I agree!
Kelly, I love this!!! We are each the owners and drivers of our own wagons! 🎉 Thankful for you and how much you give to all those who know you!! 🙌🥩👑 To all those starting this journey- never give up!!!! If you fall down, get back up! 🙌
Dave Engels is a wainwright and is currently rebuilding an old shepherd's wagon. The wagon was in hundreds of pieces when he started. I am choosing to rebuild and Drive (wagons cannot drive themselves) my shepherd's wagon (my broken, fat, sick, 77 year old body) on ketovore. To lovingly shepherd myself on a better life journey. Thank you for talking about CHOOSING. I choose a better life.
At the same time Dave is rebuilding a manure spreader wagon. That's one wagon I'd avoid getting on,lol. I hated our manure spreader because it had to be cleaned before storage or it would rust away to nothing if left dirty. Just keep on the carnivore wagon because it's nice and simple to operate and gets you to where you need to be,the land of health,wealth and happiness.
19 years, GO YOU!!! You are one of the most authentic people I know. Fantastic info in this video!! You have changed my whole mindset!! Thank you for all you share from your heart for no other reason than to help others who struggle. 🙏🏻 There is a special place in heaven for you! (Not now!!) :). See you Wed!!
Some of us are true addicts. For me it is as if the beast wakes up and uses its claws to peer out from the blinds of my eyes. Once that beast is loose watch out! I am grateful it is sugar and not narcotics or alcohol. Carnivore now for 3 or 4 years and that keeps the beast behind bars... i do have the occasional relapse. I watch you and others to derive encouragement. All you folks out there hang tough! It improves each day you make those good choices.
Kelly you are the best!
I also choose not to eat the "standard American diet" You helped me reverse fatty liver disease. My doctors are amazed. Completely off all my medications.
Thank you so much ❤
I am finally sticking to the Carnivore plan....the words I say to myself are "It's just food." For me...those words break the power poor food choices have. Thanks for the inspo!❤
I say to myself, “It’s not worth it.” That donut, candy bar, etc.,
Just
Isn’t
Worth
It.
💪
I love the wagon analogy!! I AM THE DRIVER! Maybe I’ll start thinking of the sugar as a drunk driver. Don’t let sugar drive drive because it’s drunk and will only end in a crash. Thank you for sharing your words of wisdom and encouragement!
Thank you. I need to own my wagon. I need to choose the right and own it. I really needed this today because I crashed my own wagon the other day and have been in the carb ditch wallowing. I repent. I choose to own it and I choose to make better choices for health and emotional health. Thank you Kelly
You just described me. I'm struggling with life right now and have started emotional binging again. The stress of something going on in our life right now has me out of control. I keep telling myself I restart today, then I fail. I fell off three weeks ago because we were in the hospital for my husband's emergency procedure. Now we are in recovery mode. I am a stress/emotional eater and sugar addict. I needed this reminder.
I had Costochondritis and thought there was something happening with my heart because of where you are feeling the sharp intense pain. Thankfully I wasn't having a heart attack but you are right about the pain. It was absolutely horrible 😩. Thank you so much for your inspiring words. They really do make a huge difference ❤
Same- I had an acute construction accident but started inflammation in that cartilage and back then my diet was garbage & I had no idea what was happening or how to stop it. Doctors were WORTHLESS.
I thought it was a heart attack.
Off the wagon as i watch this,bingeing on cake...got to 5 days sugar free😢thanks for this
That’s ok… tomorrow is another day, right?
Don’t beat yourself up over making a mistake along your way of adopting/following a Proper Human Diet (which for me is Ketovore, 95% carnivore).
Cutting out all sweet tastes in your diet is something that really helped Kelly (and me!) on our health journey.
If you are like me and Kelly, we can not moderate sugar, carbs and anything that tastes sweet (like diet sodas, artificial sweeteners, etc) and have to completely abstain from these sweet tasting things or we will fail.
If you are also a sugar/carb addict like me and Kelly, and you can’t moderate, then PRO-ACTIVELY CHOOSING to abstain from eating or drinking these things that will only end up sabotaging your efforts and ultimately negatively affect your short and long term health and well being.
YOU ARE THE DRIVER OF YOUR OWN WAGON!! WE ARE NOT VICTIMS, WE ARE CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I highly recommend you watch another great CZcams channel called “imperfect carnivore UK”. Her channel is dedicated to people like us who are not perfect and sometimes fall off the carnivore or ketovore wagon and want a safe place where they are not judged as being less than perfect in the way they do these Proper Human Diet lifestyles.
I hope this helps you and for God’s sake… please put down that cake and (as Kelly used to do), throw it in the trash and cover it liberally with dish soap!! 😊😊🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🐮🐑🥓🐷🍤🐠🌹
Making gradual conscious changes and having systems in place to support you work better than vague goals . 1.Start by not going grocery shopping on an empty stomach (for me that's a must). 2.Reframe what sugar is , think of it as poison in your body. 3.If you're in a situation where you have meals with family focus on eating protein first.
For me I started eliminating sugary sodas and replacing them with carbonated water. Not having trigger foods in the house if you can avoid buying them at all. Potato chips and junk food in general I can't buy them because I know I won't stop at just one. I try to follow a keto diet, combined with intermittent fasting which for me is not eating after 8 pm. Trial and error figure out what works for you . I started 7 months ago , I've been a sugar addict my entire life so I'm not going to lie and say it was easy.I still struggle with making better food choices and I still let go of the reigns sometimes however I try to get a hold of them before the wagon careens over the cliff. There's a saying "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. You're going to get there just remember it's a life long journey, you got this 😊
My trick is eating a bite of salted butter straight when I have a craving. It really helps overcome the sugar addiction.
This was wonderful! Thank You Jesus I’m over the cravings🙌🏽 I just ate 1/2 dozen egg yolks and 7 pieces of no sugar added bacon (which was the whole pack)😳 I’ve come a long way baby😉
#thriving🔥
Wow I want to join the group so bad but can't afford it right now. I search for your videos Kelly, also my daughter's name, and I'm doing it. I just adore you and your love of God and keep doing this plzzz!! So far it's been five weeks on carnivore and my hip has stopped hurting and my stomach has stopped cramping!!! Yaeeee 🎉!!!Thank you so much!!! ❤
Dignity is what’s lost to piles of donuts when you’re succumbing to sugar addiction and it’s the very thing we gain as we take ownership in our daily choices.
I had Costochondritis & boils ( Hidradenitis Suppuritiva (HS) ) too. I was prescribed all sorts of strong meds over a 15 year period that never really worked. None of my doctors asked me what I was eating. Now I'm in HS remission from a low carb diet. No drugs needed. ❤ I hate that there are so many people out there with HS who have no idea how easy it is to fix it.
Thanks for all the videos. You're an inspiration! I cried when I realised I had to give up sugar and carbs but I don't even miss them now. I'm not missing out...I'm living my best life!❤
That was just beautiful. Kelly, I can listen to you for hours. I am saving this one.
Kelly Hogan... I love you so much!.... Over five and a half years ago I saw your Interview with Bio Hacker.... You changed my life in that moment... I started Carnivore in October of 2018, and have had so many health benefits, I could write a book about my own results... BUT... my carb addiction tripped me up over and over... I thought I could have just one lunch at a restaurant and go back to strict Carnivore... but that does not happen... Eating one teaspoon of any carbs, for me, is just like an alcoholic having just one drink... No, it does not work... 95% Carnivore does not work... So... I keep going and keep trying to keep to 100 % Carnivore... and for me, it doesn't even work to add pork, bacon, ham, eggs, cream, cheese, chicken... No I get pain and plugged up ears from those and headaches... If I keep to only beef and lamb and salt I have no pain or headaches, and that is very hard for me to afford on a very limited Senior's pension. I still am Obese Class 2 with needing to lose over 34% of my body weight. Even with weeks of strict Carnivore, I do not lose any weight... It gets very disheartening. One of these days I will write that I have had success on the scale as well as all the other benefits. I refuse to give up... I am worth it!... I am a 55 inch tall 78 year old living on Northern Vancouver Island where a medium size beef rib steak costs $29.00... My food budget is $15.00 per day. I need a Patron... A little addition here: I don't have a normal metabolism. In the past, I went for one full year on eating less than 1000 calories per day. I ate salads, fruit, cottage cheese and meats. After one full year I had lost 30 pounds. Then a death in my family and I ate the same way, but added popcorn with butter and gained it all back within 6 weeks. I have been dieting one way or another for the past 35 years, rarely ever leaving my house as I am so ashamed for people to see how fat I am. Right now I am 25 pounds lighter than I was 35 years ago, but still need to lose 34% of my body weight.
I kept on falling off the wagon until I realized that I wasn’t eating enough and once I started eating more, I didn’t have the constant cravings. I have been able to stick to the carnivore diet for the past three months after two years of falling off every two weeks. Keep going you will eventually get this right. ❤
This affirmation can be applied to one's whole life, not just what we choose to eat. Thank you for that. Have a great day, everyone.
You’re so welcome Kelly!!
You and your excellent advice, experience and positivity have definitely helped me to…
lose 80 lbs (was 300 lbs, now 220 after 14 mos), reverse/cure type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, IBS, acid reflux, headaches, chronic arthritis in my knees and back, fatigue, sleep apnea, brain fog, skin tags gone, depression, anxiety gone… and too much more to list.
And also… OFF ALL MEDS!!!😊😊😊
I am happy, healthy and hopeful (The 3 H’s of a Proper Human Diet), my energy levels, mental clarity and focus are off the charts and I simply feel the best I’ve felt since I was in my 20’s (and I’m gonna be 62 in June… WOW!!)
Thanks again for all you do Kelly… you are making a REAL difference in so many people’s lives!!!
😊😊🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🥩🐮🐑🥓🐷🍤🐠🌹🌹🌹
I love you and your life lessons. You have helped me to get to a new level of health. I was so low on my fat and you are the only person that made it so clear that that was my problem. Hoping to bust through a 2 year plateau.
I HOPE that THIS impactful message is the one that stays with me!! Fellow food addict here who has hated herself through too many bad eating decisions to count. Hearing more of the specific details offered in the video and the comments has resonated today. I mean I’m emotional right now -tearful. I have the education-a masters degree in health for crying out loud!! And a history of turning my health around (30 years ago) by eliminating all sugar, starch, grains…..I truly know better. After listening to such a compassionate message, I see that I must not allow myself the alternative options out there even if they are keto and carnivore-no “chips” or protein cookies offered by CZcamsrs who have great intentions-it’s on me to realize that I need to keep it simple and trust that meat alone is my answer. Thank you Kelly-a million times over. Wow. You really got to me.
I bet you're Dr was so surprised when you came back a year later~i know mine sure was!!!! I went back 6 months after she told me to try keto, and she couldn't believe it!!! Not my results, but that I actually followed her advice😊😊
I’m a new subscriber but I’ve seen you off and on for the past year. Your personality and relatability is so refreshing and encouraging to me! Zero ego, warm, insightful, fun! I look forward to watching you in the future. ❤
“You can’t have that”… YES!! I wish I had a dollar every time I heard that. Now, I tell whoever says it, “I can, but I choose not to have it.” My choice. Love LOVE this video, Kelly!
This is how I quit a 2 pack a day smoking habit. "I'm choosing to do this - I can smoke anytime I want".
Love the wagon analogy. I’ve never thought about I was driving the wagon! Game changer! Thanks Kelly ❤
Yes Kelly, costochondritis is pretty darn painful. I have it now. Three autoimmune diseases are driving me to start carnivore. I love your videos and have learned such great info I think I will have a great start.🥰 Thank you!
Such a wise and compassionate and truthful video! Once again, I’m forwarding to others.
I also attributed my sugar to addiction.. I hear people say their cravings are gone after a week or a month.. mine never left.. until now over a year later. I came across a lady named Julia Ross. She learned that addiction can be cured by replacing amino acids we are deficient in. I'm trying it for about a month now and a long with a whole list of other benefits, my cravings are not overpowering now. I thought about your channel. I wanted to share this with you because I've never heard anyone on your show mention it. I think they are just as unaware as I was. I hope this helps people.
I have had costochondritis. It feels like you've been folded in half. I also have had sacroiliitis, inflammation of the cartilage between your spine and your pelvis, it is not fun either! Once I reduced the carbs, all of the inflammation in my cartilage went away. I do sometimes make terrible choices, but every day that I don't make bad choices, I am proud of myself. Days that I make bad choices, I try really hard to forgive myself and let myself start again RIGHT NOW. Not tomorrow morning, not later today, NOW. It's hard, but so totally worth it. You don't have to be 'perfect' to feel better. The closer to 'perfection' you are, the better you feel!
If anyone is addicted to sugar, I recommend watching a video from Dr Nicole Labor. She discusses the psychology and brain issues with addiction. I found her 6 months ago when I got sober and went keto. All addictions go to the same part of the brain. Alcohol, carbs, drugs. All the same. Hope it helps someone struggling with sugar addiction or any other addiction 😊
Bless you. Only the folks who are 'Just Like You' can understand eating the entire box of a dozen donuts. It is a literal moment when your brain takes over control of all logic and 'self-control'. Only us folks like you understand what FOOD ADDICTION is. Addiction to sweets and carbs, and the health impact that eating these in excess has on our health and lives probably a probably makes this addiction the # 1 health realted killer....
Keto helped me get rid of sugar in my coffee after 45 years of coffee drinking. Now I use butter and MCT oil in coffee - so good.
Exactly what I needed today Kelly! Thank you!
I am currently suffering from my choices, and feeling pretty awful physically and mentally 😢 you have such a great way of putting things into perspective and reminding us of the hope we do have and the way we can choose to look at things in such a positive light instead of self pity and defeat. ❤
At of all the CZcams influencers on carnivore, I ALWAYS seem to gravitate back to your channel in particular. I believe it's because of your realistic confidence that is so relatable. I really appreciate that in you and your channel. Thank you for your content and information. So very helpful !! 🙏🙏 It always has something I can use...👍👍
It’s not that you can not have it, you will not have it! You can’t justify eating foods you know make you unhealthy. ❤
If someone is keeping felling out from the wagon , I suggest to check if the have any traumas that need to take care .
I was not able to take care of my self , I always sabotage my self every time that I was doing well on a diet .
Now that I’m in therapy I’m able to follow this way of eating with 0 cravings. ❤
Great video! It's taken me a long time to realize how much I deserve to choose and be in control of my own life, and that I CAN control my future.
Kelly, you always come out and say the things I need to hear at the perfect time! I have had three weeks solid, no cheats. I broke my weight loss plateau. Thank you ❤
Kelly, I love this and needed it so much! I have learned to change my mindset and the words I use towards working out, and I now 'get to work out", rather than 'have to'. I have got to reprogram my brain to do the same thing for my way of eating. I do great for a while, and then one poor choice leads to MANY poor choices. Thank you for this video.
Another great video, Kelly!! Thanks for sharing!
This is such a great Idea! "Joy of missing out on pain" perfect! I adopt this. Plus "choosing" consciousness! Perfect! I take that into my life
You are awesome! I've been driving the struggle bus off a cliff several days a week. This was so what I needed to hear. I am so grateful you do what you do and you are who you are and choose to share it with us!
AWESOME video, so what i needed today... Life is choices and the right choices empower Mentally , Physically, Spiritually and with Family... My addiction to carbs was in a way suicidal and depressing... Thank you Kelly!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Kelly. The throw away comment "no one is holding a gun to your head" really helped me see that other people aren't forcing me to eat the carbs. I can choose. You have changed my life with this. I am so grateful and have listened to this video three times now, and will listen again until it's fixed in my head, that what I eat IS my choice.
YES 🙌🏼 I’ve fallen off the Proverbial Wagon too… like so many other people but I’M HERE TO SAY we can come back and LIVE healthy and on carnivore again. I have to say, the biggest success factor (at least for me) is to keep coming to Kelly’s group zoom and listening and hearing the struggles of others and wins of others who have been in the same spot. Kelly has really helped me so much with her positive way of looking at the problems and how to overcome them! THANK YOU KELLY! You are truly a life-saver! Keep doing these videos. It doesn’t matter if it’s talked about before. We need this! #THINGSAREGONNAGETBETTER ❤❤❤
Yes!! Thank you, Kelly! Just what I needed to hear! Thanks for being here for all of us! 👏👍🥰🥰
Omg…what you said about “you can’t have that” hits home! My family says that all the time and I am always saying…I can have anything I want so please stop saying I can’t have things. I choose not to have things that affect my health.
From one addict to another. . . You can do this! The cravings will go. You may need to avoid birthday party's or some outings til you got this. Just like a drinker avoiding drinking friends or hanging in a pub.
I wish I could press the like button every time you say something that I resonate with...I would press it 100 times I'm sure. Listening to your wisdom keeps me on track!
This is Sue , yes I had what you had costocondrdis , It was trouble, very painful…had to sit up to breathe,had to sleep that way also. When I was much heavier. I’m on the carnivore wagon now, I’ve lost 28.5 lbs. first 45 days keto, 78 days carnivore. Feel so much better!!!Thanks to you & others!!!
I was out for surgery for having a hysterectomy and have been carnivore for over a year with hardly any slip ups at all and I guess it’s the surgery environment that I’m in right now and I just went on a full binge and I’m listening to your video and it actually puts things in her respective. I lose everything with wild abandonment and feel like something happening to me when I’m binge, but putting in it in a different perspective where I’m choosing this.
The book Rushing women’s syndrome taught me the importance of replacing ‘I have to do’ whatever it is with ‘I get to do…’ whatever it is. Same type of process as I choose to do this - it puts you back in control. I get to walk the dog - it is a privilege, like most things in my life. This mindset shift is so positive and empowering!
Kelly Hogan, you’re my hero. Personable, empathetic, empowering, inspiring= hero! I’m nearly 4 weeks in and down 11 lbs! Thanks for your channel!
I started a carnivore diet about 6 weeks ago. Down 12lbs. I still eat dairy. Moving forward I would like to reduce the amount to see if it makes a difference. Feeling good and motivated even without support from family and friends. Unfortunately I stopped talking about doing it. I am so thankful for you and others Who I've come to depend on for support. 😊
For the people struggling to stick with it: I could not do it strict like these YTers cold Turkey right out of the gate. For me, it’s been much better to do it gradually. Substitute white rice for pasta and find a clean bread without seed oils and have it only sparingly. My husband and I are doing usually two carnivore meals per day and carbs in the form of rice with one meal.
I think Dr Saladino and Dr Salisbury (over 100 years ago) are correct that vegetables are toxic but fruit is good. So we are doing raw milk and fruit. Dr Salisbury said make meat 80% of your diet with a slice of bread (which would have been very different in the 1800s!) and some fruit. Dr Salisbury said “vegetables only as a relish” (meaning seasoning!).
This is working for me and keeping me from reverting to junk. And as time goes on (and we get more grocery budget!) we may keep whittling it down more and more in the direction of carnivore.
I love you Kelly 😊🥰 This one really hit home with me. I have been struggling my WHOLE freaking life it seems. I'm 53 and I have been on one hell of a Rollercoaster. I'm ready to get off of it now., thank you very much😂 In all seriousness though,Thank you so much with my whole ❤for this video today, you are such an inspiration 🥰 Many blessings to you and your family❤️💖🙏🙏
I have been off the sugar road for 19 years. Totally agree with you-fellow abstainer here!
Kelly, I LOVE that you say the same things over and over! It helps me memorize them and repeat them to myself throughout the day. You are my go-to channel when I need inspiration; thank you!
Great timing. I've been keto then carnivore for just over two months. I had a gallbladder attack a few days ago, and it made me scared of fat, so I switched to eating just lean protein. Little fat, low carb. I was eating shrimp, fat free Greek yogurt, chicken breast, skim milk, etc. this was of course very unsatisfying, and I started to eat some carbs, and then had a little sugar binge one night. I've felt so frustrated and discouraged, but today I'm back to eating carnivore, although I'm going slow with the fat for now, as far as consuming the extra butter, heavy cream etc. So far, no extra pain today. Went for a 4km walk. Drinking electrolytes, and feeling much more hopeful now! I prayed for strength and encouragement so I thank the Lord for your video today.
are you able to maybe use ox bile/ or apple cider vinegar or digestive enzymes, until the gall bladder settles? I've read several things on Dr Berry, Dr berg etc saying ppl use those 4 a bit, even when they have no gall bladder for eg.
Thanks, Kelly. You are a delight!
I’m there now. I did over 100 days carnivore… started on 12/7 and made it through Xmas as well as my b-day in Feb. Then in late March I was left alone with my special needs son for a few days while my wife and other child went to FL on spring break. I made it one day before I caved to stress eating. He’s a wonderful little boy but he also had behavior issues that I have a very hard time dealing with.
By the time they returned I was eating a pure sugar / junk food diet and I’ve been there nearly a month now. Trying to get back to it today again.
This message is so good! I'm going to watch it again tomorrow and the next day and the next day.....owning up to our choices is so important. I heard on a podcast yesterday the statement "Intentionally focus your mind on what you will gain and not what you'll be giving up" and this is right in line with what you are saying....you get to choose a juicy ribeye. I do love a juicy fatty medium rare ribeye🤤! And I am becoming addicted to ordering fly dutchman at In and Out 😉. I would much rather have a burger patty than ice cream any day! Thank you for this message Kelly!
Thank you Kelly for all the encouragement, love your story of the donuts. We all can relate to that. 🥩🥩🥩
My mantra is: Sugar will ask for more sugars.
Being aware of this will give me a pause and instead of eating something with sugar I’ll choose differently (most of the time).
And if I really really really want something sweet I’ll eat a date filled with butter 🧈 = my 90/10 rule and that’s fine for me. 😊
🥩🍳🍗💧
I love this! I say this all the time! I CHOOSE to eat foods that fuel my body! I CHOOSE not to eat food that poisons my body! I have been saying for years, starting when my mom told me I couldn't eat something because I was on a diet. I told her, "I can eat that, but I CHOOSE not to eat it!"
I am also an abstainer . I used to sit in the parking lot and eat an entire bag or 2 of Reese peanut butter cups. 6 weeks carnivore and I have discovered pork belly air fryer bites oh yum!
Kelly, this is my first time watching one of your videos. I've been doing carnivore for about 5 months now. Watched a lot of carnivore docs. I have the knowledge! I fell off the wagon yesterday, celebrating my grandson's 17th birthday. I feel horrible today! Your video about mindfully choosing is what I needed to hear! I've just subscribed to your you tube e channel. Look forward to seeing more. Thank you and God bless you!!!
I don't know how you just keep getting better, but thanks for sharing this wisdom with us! Love you, Kelly.
I fell off the wagon so many times...I ate it 😂 needed to hear this, realised I have a really bad addiction and going into "carnivore rehab" tomorrow to heal and break this embarrassing cycle!!!
Thank you, Kelly for all you do!
Such a great message Kelly, thank you!!
