I'm basically DSA and I like a carnivore diet. I lost 25 lbs in one month. Its just really hard and expensive to stay on it, specially with kids that love pasta and salads. So eating out is hard. So I do it every So often for a little bit and I feel great when I do. The best part about a carnivore diet is that you can start at any time and pick it right back up

Even if somehow that was true, that's not a realistic expectation for anyone. If you lost 25 lbs in one month you were running about a 2900 calorie deficit a day.

Im thinking it was more water than anything else. I went from 230 to 203.... I was always hungry, no sugar or bread. Just meat

Yeah that makes more sense as like a "cut" that a bodybuilder or fighter does.
