I haven’t looked at any pics of myself side by side until I tried on some new clothes last night and could LEGIT WEAR A BELT PROPERLY!! This is 320+lbs vs 208lbs. And I’m not done. There is no food worth life in my before. I promise it can be better.

@rp76net Thank you! It's hard for me to believe most of the time as well. I often still feel like I'm in the larger body when it comes to my mental limitations. Working to learn and experience things I could never do before. Like run. LOL

Today is a milestone day. The day I put in my sight on 1/28/23. 100 lbs lost and 199 by 12/31/23. Smashed both. 306 to 162 in 337 days. Commitment, Consistency and Community. We’re made to do hard things friends! Our limits are self imposed. Make 2024 your best yet #Carnivore

What did you do today? Did you make action or excuse’s? If you made excuses, stop. Put the fork down and get busy. Get on board and let’s make the rest of the day a win! Let’s go! 💪🏼

Morbidly obese? Metabolically bankrupt? What are you doing today to turn it around? I’ve been where you are. I’ve walked in your shame. Wore the fake smile. What changed for me? I started making action and stopped making excuses. I had complete control over what I put

@DrEenfeldt For me it was the addictive nature of the food. There is a mental & physical addiction to contend with that is often overlooked…ESPECIALLY if one has never been morbidly obese before. I was there. 320+lbs. DKA event last Jan. Down 105lbs today and no longer T2.

@DoctorTro This has helped me reverse T2 post DKA, lose 115+ lbs to date, defeat sleep apnea, fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, and so much more. It’s not a diet food, it’s a life food!

@Tony21323 My primary focus since day one was protection of my pancreatic beta cells. So I avoided any foods that would cause an insulin spike. I still do this. Every bite. Every meal. Every day. The foods have evolved from low carb alternatives to my past carb rich foods to more of

I have a torn medial meniscus in my left knee so no running until that’s fixed. That doesn’t mean I can’t lift, cycle, and eat like I should. So that’s what I’m doing. I intend to learn how to swim during this time of no running also. Never been one to swim. Didn’t enjoy it

I haven’t eaten any fruit since January 23, 2022. 626 days. Initially it was because I was working to avoid insulin spikes. I wanted to put T2D into remission. Now I think about it differently. At the cellular level, my body doesn’t segregate fructose based on source. It

@ElieJarrougeMD Agree 100%. Lifestyle changes have allowed me to reverse T2 and become medication independent. It CAN be done.

@ZJustzed Yes! I refer to it as being insulin inert. I want to do as little as possible to incite an insulin response by what I eat.

Being morbidly obese is tough. I walked that walk for 40+ years. The shame. The embarrassment. Food and alcohol helped mask the sadness, or so I thought. It just made it all worse. It’s hard to be healthy. Takes effort. But it’s less hard than the life I lived when I was
