If you missed Part 1: My name is William, I’m 45, a father of 3, and I spent the last month eating nothing but meat—beef, pork, and chicken, all regeneratively raised through Dude Food. I started the carnivore diet to fix gut issues that had been dragging me down for years.
In the first two weeks, I dropped weight, sharpened mentally, and—most importantly—calmed the digestive issues that plagued me daily.
But now let’s talk about the full 30 days—what really happened, what changed, and what surprised me most.
🔄 Week 3 – The Transformation Phase
Around Day 17, I noticed something unexpected: my mood was better.
Not in the way caffeine boosts you, but in a grounded, clear, stable kind of way.
I wasn’t snapping at my kids. I wasn’t foggy after lunch. My patience came back—and so did my drive.
Physically, my digestion was completely predictable. No gas. No bloating. No bathroom emergencies. Just… normalcy. After years of IBS-like symptoms, that felt like a miracle.
I also started waking up before my alarm—rested and ready to go.
🧪 Week 4 – The Data Doesn’t Lie
By Day 30, I had:
-
Lost 11 pounds
-
Reduced my waist by 2 inches
-
Improved my sleep score (tracked via my Oura Ring) by 18%
-
Gotten my bloodwork done—and saw improvements in fasting glucose, triglycerides, and CRP (inflammation marker)
But the real win?
My doctor looked at the labs and said, “Whatever you're doing, keep doing it.”
💥 What I Didn't Expect
What surprised me most wasn’t the weight loss or energy boost—it was the emotional stability.
No sugar swings. No caffeine crashes.
No anxiety triggered by bloated discomfort.
Just a calm, consistent rhythm to my day.
I also realized how emotionally tied I’d been to food—snacking out of boredom, eating out of habit, chasing energy highs. The carnivore diet stripped all that away and gave me clarity.
🍖 Will I Keep Eating This Way?
Absolutely. Maybe not 100% forever, but this experiment changed how I see food.
From now on, meat is the foundation of every meal. Real meat. Regeneratively raised. No compromises.
And when I say meat, I mean filet mignon, ribeye, chicken thighs, pork chops, ground beef—all from farmers who care about their animals and their soil. That’s why I stick with Dude Food.
My gut has healed. My energy is stable. My brain is sharp.
And for the first time in a long time—I feel like myself again.
🧠 Final Thoughts: Try It Yourself
I’m not a doctor. I’m just a dad who got tired of feeling like crap and decided to do something about it.
So if you’re struggling with gut issues, fatigue, weight, or brain fog—don’t overlook the simplest, most primal solution: eat real meat.
You don’t need fancy shakes. You don’t need superfoods.
You need nutrient-dense meat, raised right, eaten simply.
It worked for me.
It might just work for you too.
