A few months ago I was thinking of doing liposuction.  I weighed 118 kg.  Dieting never worked for me.  

 

I came across an all-beef diet used successfully by Jordan Peterson (if you have heard of him) and thought, like he said, I can try anything for a month.

So I went to Makro and bought a lot of beef and started.  I eat as much as I want, its delicious (I cook myself at home) and I lost a lot of weight--I was down to 106+.   My only issue now is... too many dates.  When I go on a date, of course we eat.  If not for that I would have lost even more weight now and might even weigh about what I did when I was in my 20's.  I am currently at about 108.  

Its easy.  Just eat beef.  I also avoid almost all sugar.  I drink thinks mostly that have no sugar or just some raw honey.  And beef.

 

My suggestion, go to Makro and buy Harvey brand rib eye and strip loin.  Its 360 baht per kg and good quality.  each BIG steak ends up costing 100 to 150 baht.

 

Worth a try.

PS:  After doing this diet for nearly 3 months I went and did my health check.  All my numbers had improved.

Great to hear you have seen the light

i am carnivore (mostly) myself and have lost over 35kg
started on Keto
then moved to carnivore
i now do keto on my cheat days which is usually cream and nuts or avocado
but mostly now i eat Beef, Lamb, salmon, eggs, chicken
and i treat myself with dairy, cheese or cream

never felt better
hunger is a thing of the past as i never spike blood sugar anymore

that Harvey brand may not be so cheap soon, i seen it come in recently
grab it while you can

It's called the Atkins diet. ????

NO it is not
you are a fool to conflate them
they are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT

an Atkins diet reintroduces carbs after just 2 weeks
which is why you hear idiotic arguments against carnivore
saying "its only good short term"
when fools conflate carnivore with Atkins
as Atkins is useless after 2 weeks as carbs get reintroduced 

Don't you find it difficult to digest all that Beef?

no, your digestive system improves considerably

My only issue now is... too many dates

Switch to Prunes...lose even more weight

OP, yes there are lots of variations of the low/no carbs diet. And yes it does work for rapid weight loss initially. However, you will find the weight will come back just as quick as soon as you reintroduce carbs back into your diet. 

Its not a permanent weight loss solution, it is great for that initial weight loss to get you started and then switch to healthy balanced diet.

No...that's where the arteries come in...they gladly collect 30% of it and stick it inside the walls for safekeeping

I do not think it works for everyone.

But it sure works for me!

I had some issues with diarrhea first week.  Then all fine.

Well I do not plan to EVER go back.  I only eat other foods when I go on a date or with freidns to eat out.  Othr than that its delicious beef all day all the time.

And I will keep monitoring my health, but, as I mentioned, after nearly 3 months all my numbers were better:

Lower blood sugar
lower triglycerides
lower bad choloesterol

higher good cholesterol

 

etc.

When i say I do a check up, I do the FULL check up.  Including treadmill stress tests and all blood work.  The biggest health check available.  And all was better.

i am agreeing with you
if you check out Dr. Shawn Baker
you will see lots of info from other carnivores and their medical results
all of them see improvements

Good luck with that, you will find there are long term effects from only eating protein, you will die of scurvy, clogged arteries, bowel cancer. Also overtime the weight loss from low carbs tends to fall away. 

A man was bragging to his mate that he recently lost a 120 pound, oh yeah asked the friend, how did you that, well said the man, i got rid of my wife...

Incorrect.

i tried the same for similar reasons, also buying the beef from makro

 

made me what to throw up for some reason, and stunk the house out

 

previously tried it doing pork and fish only (cooked and delivered) and that worked well, kept me off the booze too, but started getting inflammation and all sorts though, probably from the omega 6

 

difficult to do in Thailand, and doesn't really work long term

OP has touched a nerve with the steaks cost.????

again completely false
it is not difficult to do in Thailand
does work long term

your inflammation likely due to something else
sounds like you did not try for long
and your body still trying to recover from alcohol

You better have the doctor check your triglyceride levels as red meat such as Beef, either barbequed or baked will increase this.  Your Cholesterol levels also play a part in heart disease as well.

suddenly everyone is a doctor
defending their sugar addictions

OP has stated his levels have improved

as have many other carnivores globally????

inflammation was from too much pork

 

i really don't think it works long term unless you're a complete hermit 

 

like another poster said, the weight comes back as soon as you stop it

 

i learnt about it from jordan peterson, and he's not in a good place right now, and hasn't been so for at least a year
