Extremely consistent story from those who've walked the classic path of Whole Foods / Paleo ➡️ Keto/ #Peatstr / "Animal-based" ➡️ Carnivore / Lion Diet.
Cutting out those final carbs makes an outsized difference in how you look and feel. If you have even a small amount of carbs coming in, your body is going to keep those sugar-detoxing mechanisms online, because it has to. But once you cut out that last little bit? It's finally able to turn those suboptimal systems completely off, and allocate the cellular resources to optimizing everything else across your body.
One of the most mindblowing observations I had after my own first full month of strict carnivore (coming from "animal-based" meat/fruit/honey) was that I could physically see and feel the muscles in my arms were bigger at the end of that month, despite doing ZERO exercise. Not to mention all the other benefits I outlined in my full blog post outlining the experience:

On the gender flipside, I've received messages from multiple women reporting that their ass and boobs got bigger on carnivore, while their love handles, belly chub, cellulite, etc. all zapped away, with NO other lifestyle changes other than eliminating carbs and going all-in fatty meat-only.
Seeing these sorts of changes happening from diet alone feels crazy to us now, but that's only because we've been eating the wrong diet for so long. We've forgotten how many natural superpowers we can receive from properly fueling ourselves.
Notice how lions at the zoo are extremely muscular, but they don't "work out". They literally just sit on a rock all day munching on piles of meat given to them by their handlers, but they're still jacked. That's what happens when a carnivore (which we are too), simply eats the correct food that fuels your body and naturally pulls you toward the optimal body composition.

quoting nevent1q…yrdpThat biggest difference I noticed from going from keto to about 95/5 carnivore was how muscular and toned I got doing way less workouts. If was astonishing and I still can’t believe it when I see myself in the mirror. After 3 years I have completely transformed. Keep it up.
