Diary of a carnivore
Day 0: Feeling angry 😡 and shocked 🤯 because my husband suggests I should try carnivore.
Day 3: I decide to give it a try.
Day 8: Discovering that the veggies I thought I would miss don’t taste that great after all. 🫑🥬
Day 10: Surprised by how much I
Doc: I can see from the MRI scan that you have early-onset osteoarthritis, likely from your previous surgery. That’s what’s causing the pain in your knee.
Me: 😳 Oh... is there something that can be done?
Doc: I can "clean up" the knee with a small surgery.
Me: Will it help
Preparing carnivore and animal-based lunches for a 1-year-old, 3-year-old, 5-year-old, and a 35-year-old 😊.
Real food is real food, no matter the age.
How old are you, and what's in your lunch?
Babies instinctively know what they are meant to eat 🥦 vs. 🥩.
All this nonsense about babies having to learn to like their food is just not true!
No other animal on earth has to learn to like what they are supposed to eat. You don't see tiger cubs gagging over raw meat or
Just listen to all these women's testimonials on how meat-based or carnivore diets changed their lives and made them heal both physical and mental illnesses and health issues.
Carnivore also helped me with more energy, less worrying and overthinking, as well as relieved me of my
Things I had to unlearn:
- Fiber is essential.
- Cholesterol is bad for you.
- Saturated fat is dangerous.
- Red meat causes cancer.
- Variety is the only way to get all necessary nutrients.
- 5 meals a day is optimal for stable blood sugar levels.
What else do I need to add?
7 months ago, I thought I was a healthy person who felt as good as I could feel.
However, after 7 months of only eating animal products, my perspective has changed because now I no longer have:
- Knee pain and chronically sore abs
- Seasonal allergies
- Overthinking tendencies
-
Me: I've switched to a diet focused solely on animal products.
Doc: So, no vegetables or fruit?
Me: Nope, and surprisingly, I've never felt better.
Doc: But where do you get your vitamins and minerals from?
Me: Meat and eggs.
Doc: 😳
8 months as a carnivore and about a year since I gave birth to our third child.
Feeling pretty great, and it seems like my health is still improving.
How would you rate the carnivore lifestyle from 0-10, where 10 is amazing?
I give it a 10!
Friend: I have been eating a ketogenic diet and I feel great, but my doctor found high cholesterol in my blood work. Should I be worried?
Husband: I really don't think you should worry about it. You are lean and otherwise metabolically healthy based on the bloodwork.
Friend: My
In Denmark it is normal to sell food directly from the small farmer to the costumer. In the summer time you will see many small roadshops with selfservice based on mutual trust. Here we are buying eggs 🥚
How is the culture around buying food from small farmers where you live?
6 months on carnivore!
I have never felt more at peace with my body and mind – I feel great and happy.
However, I have never received more critical and concerned questions and comments about my health and well-being.
It feels very strange.
Can you relate?
I thought I feelt pretty good and was pretty healthy before carnivore but eating meat, eggs and butter make me feel:
Happier, calmer, stronger, and more resistent, energetic and motivated.
I just didn't know I could feel this good.
Can you relate?
Meat is the most nutrient-dense food in the world and therefore a great source of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, as well as cholesterol, fat, and protein.
Meat is of vital importance for children's development!
Let your kids have meat, just like the meatbasednutritionist
Today we picked up a lot of beautiful freerange beef from a local farmer. We got 138lbs for $6.5 per lbs. We live in Denmark where food prices are high, so we saved quite a bit this way. What is the price of beef in your country?
My breakfast is getting smaller. I just can't eat as much anymore 😊
The left pic is from the beginning of my carnivore journey. The right one is after 6 months. Have you noticed the same happening for you?
These are my chickens, and they’re probably the best-fed chickens in Denmark! They enjoy leftover meat, fat, and tendons from our carnivore lifestyle. Today, I tried giving them carrot peels, and their reaction was priceless—like, ‘What? Are you kidding me?’ 🤨
Me: I'm expecting my vision to have improved. It feels like it.
Optician: 🤨 Why do you think that?
Me: I changed my diet.
Optician: Let me guess. You went plant-based?
The expression on her face was priceless when I told her what I eat 🥩🥚🥓🧈
Friend: How can you afford to eat like that 🥩🥓🥚🧈?
Me: We actually save money now compared to when we followed a keto diet with lots of organic veggies.
Friend: Really? How is that possible?
Me: By cutting out all the veggies, snacks, drinks, alcohol, and candy, the cost
After 2 years of keto:
Optician: No, this can’t be right.
Me: What? Is everything okay?
Optician: Your sight has improved by -0.5. It must be a measuring error.
At my follow-up, I found out that he changed the numbers in my file so that the ‘measuring error’ was gone.
We are a carnivore couple. I often post about my experience with carnivore, but I thought I would share some things about my husband's journey and healing.
He started carnivore 1 year ago and has experienced:
Increased strength and athletic performance
Better sleep (more deep
This might not be very glamorous...
For about 5 years, I've had a small yet distinct beard hair growing out of my cheek. It was white and pointy, making me feel old and uncomfortable.
I would pluck it as soon as I noticed, and it would always come back—sometimes quickly, other
Today, I was hungry for lunch, which is unusual if I’ve had breakfast... but today, I was.
I enjoyed some mozzarella, butter, leftover steak, and a fried egg from my own chickens. Do you add butter on the side when eating carnivore?
Have I become shadow banned, or are other carnivore and low-carb people also experiencing almost no reach? Or have I just made some really bad content this last week? Haha, I hope it’s not the latter! 😂
I'm on my way home from a full-day seminar. I've been on the go since 8 a.m. and it's now 6 p.m. No need for coffee, snacks, or cakes, and I haven't felt tired at all. Continuous energy throughout the day, fueled by animal protein and fat!

This would have been impossible without sharp pain and swelling in my right knee five months ago. Carnivore healed my osteoarthritis, and I still can't believe that I can just do things like that. I am over the moon!
First lunch at work as a carnivore:
Me: Opening a bag of pork rinds in the breakroom.
Colleague: Okay!? Really? Now? 🫢
Me: Yes, you know it's because I've started eating in a new way...
Colleague: What way is that? 😳
Me: 🥩🍗🥓🥚🧈
Colleague: 😱.... Wow, that's crazy!
Me: It seems I got my allergy symptoms a lot earlier this year. I think I might be allergic to more types of pollen now?
Doc : It sounds like it. You will just have to start medication earlier then.💊
Me: That sucks.
Doc: Yes, but we know that people can get more allergies
2000 of you, my steak-loving friends, are following along! 🎉🥩 Thanks for joining me on this journey. Your support means the world! Can't wait to keep sharing the carnivore love with all of you!
If you want to save money 💵 and time🕔, you should buy meat in bulk.

My husband and I have decided to focus on providing our kids with more carnivore/animal-based lunches. They're offered some plant-based options at their kindergartens and schools, so it requires some discussion and explanation with the staff to make it possible for our kids to
Summer break is here for me. Camping with the family for a week. Packed some supplies so that we will be well fueled for most of the trip 🥩
Any good tips for camping food on carnivore?
Real and natural beauty tips:
- Eat meat, eggs, and butter every day.

These three tips have given me:

- Smaller pores in the skin.
- Reduced inflammation, bags, and circles under the eyes.

The nurse's recommendation for starting solid food with my baby:
"Start with thin porridge because that is what resembles mother's milk the most."
My thoughts on this advice now:
It might be most similar in consistency, but not nutrition-wise.
Breast milk has a high content

reflect on whether keto/carnivore can help with arthritis.
My answer: Hell yes!
Carnivore has helped me with my osteoarthritis in a way that I could never have imagined before. The difference is unbelievable. I went from having serious pain and

Thanks, Carnivore 🥩🍳🧈
❤️ Love you ❤️
This was a typical keto breakfast plate for me before switching to carnivore. I've since realized that it was unsustainable for me nutritionally—far too little animal protein and FAT! What do you think?

These are the best four eggs I have had in my life. They are pasture-raised from my own chickens in my own garden. Here you see them taking a well-deserved swim in bacon fat before being eaten by me.
What do you like to fry your eggs in?
Left pic from September 23 (pre-carnivore) vs. right now (4 months carnivore). Noticed a subtle change. Do you take progress pics with dietary changes?
Everyone is talking about how a lack of vitamin C can make you lose teeth. So, if you go carnivore, you risk losing teeth, they say!
I know I did! 😬
But honestly, I don't miss it...
I'm just happy I don't have a sweet tooth anymore.
Has carnivore made you lose teeth?🦷
Carnivore cured chronic pain for this guy (carnivorevitality).
It has helped me with my osteoarthritis knee pain.
I have heard of so many people improving different pain symptoms with this way of eating 🥩🥩🥩
Are you one of them too?
The national dish of Denmark is crispy, salty pork belly served with boiled potatoes and parsley sauce. Tonight, I enjoyed it carnivore style – pork belly only!
What's your country's national dish?
This is a new recipe for carnivore buns. They were surprisingly good—much better than the ones I made last time, which completely collapsed. Drop me a comment for the recipe!
I am going on a small trip this weekend, so last night I put some meat in the oven on low heat and dried it overnight. Now it is ready to bring and eat with delicious butter later today or tomorrow. Dried meat, yay or nay?
Friend: Tonight I am having chicken breast for dinner. It's a bit boring, so I was thinking of having rice with it. Do you think rice is healthy?
Me: ...😬... Do you really want my honest opinion?
Friend: Yes, of course.
Me: I think nothing is more healthy and nutritious than
I ate for fun.
I ate for comfort.
I ate because of hunger.
I ate because of sadness and disappointment.
Now I eat for nourishment, and it is in a weird way a great relief not to eat for all the other reasons.
Don’t do the carnivore diet if you want to avoid these side effects:
- Better mood
- More energy
- Better body composition
- Better skin, hair, and nails
- Higher libido
- Fewer farts
Highest LDL levels had the Lowest Mortality.

People with higher LDL levels tend to die less often.
Headed to France with my family for a month! 🇫🇷 Super psyched! I am going to share all our carnivore food finds.
Any recommendations for must-try carnivore dishes in France?

Early morning train ride on my way to my first day back at work after being away for one year and two weeks. Feeling a bit sad not to see my youngest child all day. I hope I can remember how to do my job! 😅 Wish me luck!
