Sometimes confusion is “Internal Resistance”. You don’t want to do this. You don’t believe or Trust it will work. You are not sure who to listen to.
The YouTubers I follow: Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Boz, Dr. Shawn Baker, and Dr. Westman.
If you look at a high-level, they agree, with slightly different approachs. (Baker is the Outlier full carnivore, but at the highest level. Remove Processed Junk Foods, learn to listen to your body. All Meat makes that easier!)
So, find one. Dr. Westman says he has a 1 page list of ALLOWED items. Almond Milk? Honestly? Not on his list! Information Overload? Maybe.
Anyways, if you try to listen to 5 people “Directly” you will be confused. Pick one.
Personally, Westman has the simplest approach to follow, and it works in very poor counties.
Do that for 2-3 months. EXACTLY how HE prescribes it. Follow him.
Then, if you want some change. Try Dr. Berry. Try Dr. Boz. Give them 90 days.
Check Your Blood Numbers (Why I love Dr. Boz, she explains the diet isn’t about carbs, it’s about Chemistry. And the number YOU need is specific to your body and your body chemistry. This takes the GUILT and the SELF-PITY out of it).
Keep doing that, measure you blood glucose and blood ketones. Learn what that means. (Measuring something other than the SCALE matters. The SCALE LIES, and it tells half truths. It doesn’t show if you are gaining FAT and losing MUSCLE, or vice versa!)
After years in this space. This is MORE about what you REMOVE than what you add.
And I promise you, that ENJOYING your food IS the problem. You should NOT be enjoying your food to the point that you might want some when you are not hungry… That’s what got you here. Seeking Pleasure. This is the upside to going carnivore…
BTW, Dr. Fung will use a “FAT FAST” with his clients. Pick ONE fatty source of protein that you like. Eat only that. Every meal. No seasonings. Just salt. (you like bacon? You like eggs). Now eggs have a lot of protein so I was told to do twice as many yokes to fatten it up. Eat ONLY That. For days, and days… Until you SKIP A MEAL naturally/accidentally. Only that drink water. Black coffee. No sweeteners, no cream.
I promise you. You will start learning about the MANY types of hunger you feel. You will go to EAT something, and realize you have NO INTEREST in “eggs”… Tough. If you are hungry, their perfect. If you are jonesing for “something”… It’s not nutrition, and likely addiction.
After 3-5 days, your hunger signals come back. You are hungry when you NEED nutrition. And you are so bored with this food. You REFUSE to eat it until you are hungry… Now… That’s a SKILL!
If you accomplish ONLY ONE THING by the end of this year… I would HOPE that it is truly knowing/feeling hunger in its different forms… And learning to resist any form other than “Nutrition Required”.
Good Luck. At least you have the courage to ask for some help. I’ve seen people fail, and blame the diet, the bad advice, and when I asked, where did they go for support… Crickets…
