☆ ABOUT ME ☆
I am a former tech worker who lived in NYC for 30 years. When I reached 50, I set out my own and created a business selling on Amazon using their FBA program. Great fun, but neither career left much time for healthy living.
I turned 60 last year (2023). I found myself 110 pounds overweight and seriously out-of-shape, pre-diabetic, with sky-high cholesterol, and unable to walk for more than 20 minutes without resting.
I decided to make some major changes. I shut down my Amazon business and started living frugally. Health is more important than money, especially as we grow older. In August 2023 I started the carnivore diet and lost 65 pounds in 3 months.
Now I’m hooked! I can walk for miles without a rest now. My cholesterol is within normal levels as is my blood pressure. I am no longer pre-diabetic, and I feel 30 years younger!
After experiencing the benefits, I’ve become passionate about sharing my story to help others.

I like how Jay is so matter of fact about shopping for price. The grocery store can kill your whole budget these days, and yet the food tubers and vloggers are always suggesting we eat insanely expensive foods and supplements. All those videos do is make you feel bad for being fat, then make you feel bad for not being able to afford the stuff that supposedly will make you thin.
Keto/Paleo/Carnivore are based on principles, not profits, you can achieve your goals with what money you have, if you are frugal and smart with your dollars. Thanks, Jay.
Yes, I like to keep to a budget. Things are already expensive enough as it is.
Anyone ever told you that you favor Jerry Springer rest his soul. Keep up
the good work.
Thanks Jay have a wonderful day. this is just me I splurge on eggs I get the pasture raised for $4.99 I can eat less eggs and maximize the nutrients but I only eat the yokes the whites I use for shampoo and soap!
Sounds great!
Thanks for the Content...Cheers & Have a Great Week⭐😎👍💙Keep Crushing it....
Thanks!
I enjoy watching your videos. I have stopped watching most other carnivores videos. Some have become more commercials.
Thanks!
Yes, they have! They advertise So much stuff I can’t afford at all. 2krazyketos are that way. I quite watching them. They get paid to use the products. Hmmmm.
A tip on pork chops - try to get an entire pork loin. Then cut that into servings.
Thanks, I’ll take a look at the prices for that next time I’m in Costco.
All Atlantic salmon is farm raised. You don’t need to look for coloring. Wild salmon is only from the pacific (Alaska).
I just bought 2 standing rib roast from aldi. the excellent and a good price. You can get 3-4 meals out of it.
Thanks Jay!
Great video and great deals! Thank you and please keep them coming!
Will do!
Helpful,cheers.
Thanks Jay
I am in the UK 🇬🇧
I have Aldi near me
I am a keto diet
That's great!
Great job!
⭐⭐Your Rib Roast was better priced than Costco🇺🇸
Excellent great eating🥩🥩🥩⭐⭐⭐
Gladys🇨🇦Toronto🇨🇦Canada🇨🇦
Groceries in Toronto are pricey!
It looks like your Aldi is a much bigger store then the ones around me. You have a whole wall of meat, we have like 10 feet for all the meats, beef, chicken and pork.
Looks delicious, great prices, great quality food.
No pork belly available in my area. Aldi had it in their ad this week for $2.99/lb
I got 6 packages. Their Irish butter is also good. I picked up 10 for $3.09@
Too bad they didn’t have the pork belly out yesterday
Gee you got some bargains! Well done 😊
Thank you! 😊
Entertaining video, Jay!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love the cod from Aldi's... broiled, grilled or sauteed in garlic butter
So yummy
Hmmm, I will sautée mine in butter with some salt. I always love it that way.
@@Jaylwoodworth so good!!
Just found ur channel Jay. I've watched a few vids now. Thk 👍.
(I'm a 3+ month Carnivore & down 40+ lbs - hoping to heal auto immune issues.)
Good for you. It’s important if you’re trying to control autoimmune issues to not slip up and eat carbs. Pay attention to what your body’s telling you.
Also, you seem very well educated on the food you will and will not get! Where did you learn this?
From reading and paying attention. It's amazing what you see when you actually read the labels!
@@JaylwoodworthI know right! There are so many unneeded things in food nowadays. I am 16 and so glad I found out about all the unhealthy seed oils, sweeteners and emulsifiers early in life.
We finally have an Aldi's, but it's an hour and a half away. We're taking our first trip there tomorrow. I can't wait to see what kinds of deals I can get on organic and grass-fed products. Thanks for the video!
You’re welcome!
@@Jaylwoodworth we hit it as soon as the doors opened and I got a bunch of meat for up to 30-50% off, plus so many grass-fed and organic foods. I'm definitely making the trip there at least once a month.
I'm going to check out aldi for my husband's steaks! That's a great price on ribeye roasts. We're on day 2 of carnivore. Thank God we haven't killed each other yet LOL irritability is running high today. xD
It’ll be like that for a week or two, but it’s worth it!
@@Jaylwoodworth I did carnivore myself two years ago and It was easier without him but he has mental health problems and he's hoping it'll help. He tried it once before but he couldn't handle me not doing it with him. So I decided to jump on it again. I don't know if I'll stay carnivore past 90 days but I'll probably stay keto just due to pcos.
I like how practical Jay is about prices too! I shop at Aldi all the time (I love them!) and I’ve never seen brisket there. Maybe I’m not looking hard enough.
Also their Kirkwood turkey breakfast sausage says zero carbs and zero added sugar but lists sugar as an ingredient. I wonder what that means. Maybe a negligible amount of sugar is used?
Thanks for the video, buddy!
It wasn’t too long after St Patrick’s Day, so that may have had something to do with it.
I can't believe how cheap food is in the U.S.... On Vancouver Island everything is more than double what you are mentioning except for the pork chops that seem to be a similar price to what I bought on sale last week here. Organic Coffee that I get is $20.00 per pound regular price so I never get it unless it is on a good sale price. I am getting some ground beef on sale as steaks are getting beyond my budget now. I admire you for how strict you are with your food. Rib steaks last week here were $29.00 each steak...
ALDI has the cheapest grocery prices that I've seen here in Connecticut. Trader Joe's charges almost $20/lb for rib steaks, which is about $27 Canadian, and Trader Joe's is supposed to be cheap. We are lucky here though that we have some cheaper options, but you have to know where to look. The problem with ALDI is that the quality can be hit or miss. Trader Joe's is more reliable.
@@Jaylwoodworth I just really admire how you find the deals and don't compromise on what you want to put into your body...
I used to live in BC, Canada and EVERYTHING was always twice as much plus tax! Rediculous! I live in the US now.
Aldi has pork belly on sale this week dir $2.99/lb 😊
Hmmm, mine must have run out….
@@Jaylwoodworth the sale started today
@@Jaylwoodworth My husband started asking about the meats that are supposed to be on sale and they almost always bring more out from the back storage areas. If you can find someone to ask.
Good to know, thanks for the tip!
I've never bought meat at Aldi. What were your findings?
I liked all of the meat that I bought . I’ve never liked their fish though. Costco beats Aldi hands down on frozen fish.
I know things like grassfed, pasture raised, organic, etc more ideal for foods. However, is it still considered substantially healthier than standard "diet" for you to buy meats, cheeses, butters that aren't all those things? I assume it is healthier than standard American diet, but just want others thoughts. Thanks! Gulit sets in when cant but all the "best".
Myself, I think we should try to eat the best that we can afford. I’d love to est only grass fed meat, but I can’t afford it. So I eat regular meat. Maybe it’s not as healthy, but for me it’s much healthier than non-carnivore. I can’t afford organic or raw dairy very often either, but my half gallon of raw milk twice per month is the only dairy that I ever eat. No need to feel any guilt.
Glad keto works for you. It does not work for me as I have a low thyroid problem. Have tried it.
I think diet is a very individual thing. What works for one doesn’t necessarily work for others. It’s important for each of us to figure out the best diet for us.
Yep keto does not work for me either. I have the same thyroid issue. Low carb veggies work for me.
I am curious what your acidic level is with eating only meat and no veggies
I don’t know what my acidic level is, but I have not had heartburn or acid reflux once since I started carnivore, whereas I suffered from it frequently before I started.
Just curious is your cholesterol high since you eat so many eggs ?
No, my cholesterol was frighteningly high before I started this diet. After 7 months, everything is back within normal range. There are a lot of myths about cholesterol out there.
Stater Brothers grocery here in Southern California has rib eye roasts for sale most holidays. Previously they were choice, but now they are select. I tried one in the oven, like I usually cook them, but it wasn't very good. I bought a su vi a few weeks ago and picked up rib roast for $6.99/ lb for Easter and it was like eating Prime rib, delicious! I cook chuck roasts for $4.99/lb in su vi and it comes out tasting like a ribeye. 👍👍👍
Your post made me hungry!
This is so interesting. Different products from Australia. They do good quality generally
