☆ 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.
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.

WOW!! 68lbs in 5 months!! HUZZAH!!! I just keep hearing story after story like this. I'm down 70lbs and reversed Type 2 diabetes. My A1C was 11.3!!!! and now after 9 months carnivore 5.3!!!! My cholesterol all at normal levels - So Happy with my progress as well. I'm 47. My brother also shares our youtube Channel and he is down almost 100lbs and got rid of his depression and anxiety. Carnivores for life!!
It’s amazing, isn’t it? Glad to hear you’re doing so well. Keep it up!
I am David from Danbury CT. I changed my life, switching to a carnivore diet. I have seen many great changes in my health. At 55, I am better than when I was 35. Keep doing what you are doing. I myself enjoy my hiking.
Glad it’s working so well for you, keep going!
So thrilled for you! What great results after only 5 months!
Thanks!
Don't be bummed out; the body does what it needs. I am 73 and 5'8" tall. I normally weighed 105-110# and because of a walking issue, always stayed intentionally thin. But that required weekend binging (ever wake up on a Sunday morning and wonder who ate that jar of peanut butter😂?) followed by week long starving! I am day # 113 on carnivore. This week I weigh 117-120#. I am still able to mobilize and feel better than I have in years! Thanks for your showing and sharing your walk! Rita, Middle Tennessee 😁
You’re very welcome. Thanks for your comment.
Good stuff. Agree 100% Jay, I lost 22 lbs first 3 months.
Nice work!
Thank you for sharing 😊❤ I enjoyed your walk. Interesting the terrain. I am in Australia so ours is quite different. Enjoyed your chat. Well done with your progress🎉
Glad you enjoyed it. I had fun making the video.
I miss being able to walk out my backdoor and hike in the woods!
Sounds like you are really feeling great!! Thanks for sharing! Safe travels! Enjoy!
Thanks
Your voice is so lovely, very soothing. I like listening to you 😊
I'm only ketovore bc I'm nursing a newborn but I love the meat based life
Thank you so much!
You look amazing and should be proud of yourself for still losing weight during the holidays. Excellent! Great to see another video from you! Thanks for sharing your progress with us. Be well.
You’re very welcome, thanks for commenting!
Good for you bud! I'm proud of you! Do what's right for yourself! You look Great! Keep it up. I'm 3.5 months in and extatic about my results so far
Thanks, 40 lbs to go!
Good for you. Keep up the good work. Very inspirational.
Thank you so much!
Keep at it! You are doing great!
Thank you!!
I’ve been following your videos for the last few weeks. Thanks for sharing your carnivore journey. India will be interesting! Cheers from Australia.
Welcome aboard!
5 months for me too. Down to a comfortable weight, no alcohol, no carbs and no snacking. Well done Jay. Isn’t food freedom a wonderful feeling. 🇦🇺👏
It really is life-changing!
@@Jaylwoodworth BTW, I’m going to Poland in a few month from Australia. Am really concerned that if I eat pierogi or Bigos it might add back inflammation. I should have your attitude about going to India. Go with the flow.
Yes, as long as it’s the exception, not the rule. Pay attention to your body and how you feel if you eat pirogis (I would eat a serving if I were in Poland) and make sure you get back on carnivore afterward.
Safe travels to India. Keep us posted on the cuisine and retreat.
The walk looks so peaceful. 💛
Thank you! Will do!
Great Job Jay ✊
Beautiful walk. Thanks for sharing.
Great update Jay. Congratulations on your success so far.
Thank you Sean
Uzbekistan is a paradise for Carnivores😅
Your really doing great! Love your attitude. Wow a trip of a life time India have a blast!
I’ve always wanted to go. Can’t wait!
Thank you, Jay. I started carnivore two weeks ago. I find your videos very helpful.
You got this!
Hello jay looking great 🤍 looks beautiful where you live , I live down south UK , I used to have chronic knee pain since carnivore it,s stopped xxx Lynda 🌷
My knee was bothering me a lot when I started too. No pain at all now 🙂
Congratulations Jay! 🎊 🎉 🎊
Muscle is heavier than fat, you're gaining muscle.
You're doing just great. 💪🏾 💪🏾 💪🏾
This must be STRESSED don’t give up carnivores!!! That lard will come off!!!!!! This guy is proof!!!!
So pretty out there! Bring back tons of pics from India too :)
Carnivore is doable in India. Beef might be less available but lamb and goat is abundant
I love lamb, don’t care much for goat. Usually too many bones, at least in Jamaican style curry goat.
Don’t forget that you have likely built muscle which weighs more than fat - you need to measure waist and other body parts which will tell the more accurate tale. Great job - very encouraging
Yes, my pants are definitely feeling looser. I’ve lost at least another inch around my waist.
Eggs, cheese, heavy cream, butter, ghee, milk, bone broth, are all Carnivore too, animal foods.
Yes they are, and they have a lot of those in India.
Wow! Impressive weight loss over five months! 🙌🏻 The best part about carnivore is how good you feel. Hopefully India will give you lots of meat options. Maybe do a kinda ketovore approach, meats, eggs, fats and a few veggies when it's a part of the dish. I use onions and peppers in some of my cooking, especially gumbo because it's a bit sacrilegious to make gumbo without onions and peppers. I get enough flack for eating it without rice. Gumbo soup anyone 😂? Enjoy India!
Mmm, that gumbo sounds delicious. My main unbreakable rule for India will be no sugar. Also, no bread or rice unless there just isn’t anything else available. Otherwise I can be pretty flexible.
@@Jaylwoodworth Yeah, bread, rice and especially sugar just aren't worth it. Add potatoes to that list and you should be fine. Gumbo "soup" is delish. Most people can't fathom eating gumbo with no rice but I don't mind. Haven't had rice, potatoes, bread and/or sugar in so long kinda doubt my system could handle it.
I agree, Holidays are always a weight gain time. I'm at about the same time as you a little over 5 months in. down about 30lbs. Yeah don't pass up that great shrimp Biryani.
I love shrimp briyani! Chicken tikka masala is delicious too, as are so many other Indian dishes. The tikka masala is actually almost ok, as long as I don't eat it over rice. Lots of spices, but the sauce is mostly butter.
Absolutely. Yes love that Marsala. I know the rice is not on our list. such a shame though.
@@Jaylwoodworth
Congrats on the excellent progress. When you go to India, maybe ask your driver for recommendations on how to get meat while there.
That's a good idea
Well done. You lost a good amount of weight. Have a lovely time in India 🍀
Thank you 😊
Congratulations on your success! ❤🥩
Thank you!
Eat goat and mutton/lamb in India. Varanasi is pretty kind-blowing. Have an amazing time!
I'm not sure if you'll see this, but I have been to India.
High rate of diabetes there, they eat a lot of carbs. If you canI do chicken and eggs, probably can't get beef since they don't eat it. They have McDonald's over there, but they don't have beef.
If anything do the best you can and enjoy the trip.
Thanks for the tips. Yes, it can be a very carby diet with all the bread and rice. I’ll be as carnivore as I can, but I expect I’ll be making a few compromises while I’m there. And then I’ll go hardcore again when I get back home.
New here, subscribed. 🙏
Welcome aboard!
I've heard from many Indian people that it's hard for them eating in a carnivore way but you're a travelling American, I guess they won't starve you. It's not your religion. Looking forward to your report afterwards. Greetings from Germany! 👋
It will be interesting! I’ll make some videos, and hopefully get at least a couple posted while I’m in India.
The Bhang lassi in Varanasi is strong
My pet peeve is muscle weighs more than fat. No it’s denser than fat. A pound of feathers fat or muscle is what? All the same pound. I like the description of weight loss as like stairs, you will drop some the have a landing aka plateau then some more loss then another plateau. Usually more at the beginning then less down and more plateau. In general. To much too fast isn’t good for your body anyway. The goal is to get it off. You didn’t gain it all at once it’s not coming off that way either. But if your like me you look at food and gain 10 but diet for 3 mos lose 5 if lucky. Lol I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m starting carnivore myself soon. I’m a frequent fall off the wagoneer.😂 I’m going to get a start bloodwork to see how my end results are in a year. 🤞🏼
Yes, it is so quick at the beginning, but you’re right, it does slow down and we hit plateaus at a certain point. I agree that this is natural and nothing to get discouraged by.
This is the one diet where I don’t have the desire to cheat. It’s so easy. Best of luck to you!
Don’t forget to take into account, you’re building muscle and muscle weight is more than fat weight.
Very true, and my clothes do feel looser than they did last month.
I found cheese helped with the late night snacks when I first started keto . I lost 67 pounds so far i do look to switch to carnivore soon see how i feel. This time my husband wants to do it with me 😊.
…🙌🏼
Hmmm... How did you afford these travel adventures? Past savings?
I travel very frugally. Stay w friends, eat in cheap places. I get frequent flyer miles on my main credit card, which covers my flights. It’s amazing how cheap you can travel if you set your mind to it.
Dostcast channel here on youtube has a video on how to eat Carnivore in India ...
Thanks so much, I had no idea. That’s a good tip!
Once you hit your metabolic rate you won't lose weight. Body maintenance that weight.
This happened to me as well. 6’0” tall and started at 215 lbs. got down to 185 and have just stayed there for months. I’m happy with that and not necessarily trying to lose more
