I found this really pleasant to listen to so I thought I'd share. It's nice to hear someone talk about the fat loss, satiety, and all the other things that I also experienced when I went carnivore. Murray switched cold turkey and seems to have experienced some unpleasant effects like keto flu, but they resolved after a time.

You are two months in now? How are you feeling?

It's a lifestyle not a diet.

Ten more days and I'll be three months in. I feel fantastic. My body weight has stabilized around 60 kg, give or take, but I can visibly see that I'm gaining muscle mass and therefore must be still losing fat somewhere. Which is unbelievable for me because I look very lean now, far beyond what I thought was possible for myself. Sometimes I wonder if it's not something temporary and have to check to make sure I'm still lean, like I'm in some kind of dream. I don't want to boast but I can see my abs.

The unusual dry-eye is very very sporadic now. I've noticed two major new improvements. One is that my tinnitus, which I've had since I was a child, is now so quiet that I don't notice it any more. The other improvement is I've always had cold hands and feet below 24'c. Since it was summer when I started carnivore I did not notice this, but it's finally autumn here and 22'c today. Not only are my extremities warm, I tried to put on some warmer clothes out of habit (it's called koromogae here) and had to take them off again because I felt too warm. I've never felt too warm in my entire life, only cold, so it feels unreal. I wouldn't even drink cold drinks in summer before; that's how averse I was to the cold.

Also, I cheated again a week ago and felt the consequences the next day; the joint pain in my the fingers of my right hand came back and stayed for three days. It's better now but it's unreasonable how incommensurate the effect of eating plants and refined sugars is. I didn't eat all that much!
