Emotional Eating, Shame, and Carnivore | Dr. Shawn Baker & Jess
Jess's biggest struggles were brain fog, carb addiction, chronic cravings, and feeling trapped in a cycle of restriction, bingeing, and constantly thinking about food. Despite being a health coach, strength athlete, and competing in triathlons and powerlifting, Jess couldn't "moderate" sugar or highly processed foods.
Jess originally found carnivore because she was always searching for ways to optimize her health. With a strong family history of cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and addiction, she wanted to do everything she could to improve her long-term health. Even before carnivore, she knew she did better with abstinence than moderation, but believed moderation was the goal everyone was supposed to achieve.
Carnivore gave Jess incredible mental clarity, stable energy, freedom from constant cravings, and improved metabolic health. But more importantly, it became the tool that revealed she wasn't failing at moderation…she was dealing with food addiction.
