Dr. Shawn Baker Podcast

From Lauri: From the time I was very young, I remember my extremities hurting if someone would grab me by the arm or jump on my legs. I believe now, from what I've learned that I have primary lipedema and possibly mild lymphedema. I was a normal weight in high school (somewhat plump preadolescent), weighing 127 or so, having a very skinny waist and rib cage, though somewhat heavy legs but not abnormal looking. After high school being less active, I began to gain weight. However, I was fortunate to stumble across Dr. Atkins' low carb diet book which set me on the path of being able to pretty much maintain a decent weight. This was in the 70s. However, after four babies, I found myself 80 pounds heavier. I believe it was at this time when my lipedema developed. Throughout the years I could lose 40 to 50 pounds doing low carb, but I always gained it back. 4.5 years ago, I got serious about low carbs again, and lost 56 pounds, but struggled to keep it off (aging 30, losing 20, etc.), yo-yo-ing back and forth. So tiresome and frustrating! I was so excited when my daughter came across carnivore!!! I thought, "I might as well give it a try. I've tried everything else." We both started carnivore August 11, 2021. Since then, in eight months I've lost over 45 pounds. I continue to lose just a couple a month. I am now over 90 pounds down from my heaviest weight ever and still could maybe lose another 25. But I am so thrilled to be where I am AND TO ACTUALLY KNOW I WILL NEVER GAIN THIS BACK, as long as I maintain on carnivore. I am thrilled beyond measure. This is not even stating the health benefits. My back pain is nearly 100% improved. My sel-diagnosed fibromyalgia pain is gone! My knee pain is gone! I can actually stand up for more than 10 minutes at a time and not hurt. I was so debilitated that my husband and I were talking about moving from our two-story house of 44 years because of the stairs. I now go up and down without limiting my trips and without pain. It's actually unbelievable to me! I no longer dread going to bed to toss and turn in pain, because I am not in pain anymore. Oh, and I just turned 69 in April! My husband says my jeans are saggy in the butt…🤷🏼‍♀️But he's okay with it! Sugar/carbs was poison to me —— and I am never going back! 00:00 Introduction 03:45 Atkins Diet 07:20 Body pains and aches, fibromyalgia self-diagnosis, back pain gone 10:30 Starting on the carnivore diet 12:30 Meat satiety 14:50 Knee pain resolved 17:43 Mental health on the carnivore diet; depression 20:40 Exercise on the carnivore diet 24:26 Favorite meat 27:00 Lymphedema 29:12 Saving money on the carnivore diet See open positions at Revero: https://jobs.lever.co/Revero/ Join Carnivore Diet for a free 30 day trial: https://carnivore.diet/join/ Book a Carnivore Coach: https://carnivore.diet/book-a-coach/ Carnivore Shirts: https://merch.carnivore.diet Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://carnivore.diet/subscribe/ . ‪#revero #shawnbaker #Carnivorediet #MeatHeals #HealthCreation #humanfood #AnimalBased #ZeroCarb #DietCoach #FatAdapted #Carnivore #sugarfree ‪

From Annette: "The overriding reason I have come to this point is 'Gut Pain' and not the need to lose weight. "I am a 61 year old wife, a mother of two grown-up children and the owner/trainer of a young, high spirited Working Cocker Spaniel! "Being the youngest of 3 daughters in a working class family, I grew up on mothers home cooking and baking, with a dinner and pudding every evening and homemade cakes in the cupboard. "As a child I had no digestive issues that I was aware of, although food played an enormous part of daily family life, especially around celebrations and get-togethers. "At the age of 24 I got married to the wrong person and experienced a life changing trauma. I struggled with an eating disorder (age 24 to 34), raging gut pain, constipation and terrible GAS (age 34 to 56). My children and husband observed my issues, but just sympathised. I became a recluse every day after I had eaten lunch. Celebrations were an absolute nightmare, always ending with tremendous pain caused by gas I couldn't pass. My life became very restricted socially. "I began the low FODMAP diet after seeing a Dietician and began to understand that some plants contain fermentable carbohydrates that can cause some people gut pain and gas! "With no proper answers to my problems, I turned to You Tube and never looked back! I did Keto, but couldn't handle the leafy greens. When I found Shawn Baker I was over joyed because he gave me permission to simply leave out all the foods that gave me gut grief, and just eat the delicious meat, eggs and some fish that I love. Shawn and others like him on You tube, literally gave me a second chance at life. "It's been a process with lots of experimenting along the way. Thank heavens for Shawn Baker!"
