Getting Off the Yo-Yo Diet Rollercoaster and losing 150 Pounds | Dr. Shawn Baker & Carnivore Shug

Carnivore Shug carried a weight problem that no amount of willpower could fix. He told himself that was just who he was - he topped out over 370 pounds and tried everything to fix it. He counted calories, starved himself, ate rabbit food and drank green juice. He tried high protein, drank protein shakes and put himself through hard workouts, but none of it worked long term - he was always hungry and never full, and frustrated. He would diet, fail, and repeat. This went on for years.

Then in September 2025 Carnivore Shug saw a video from Carnivore Ray. I figured I had nothing to lose, since nothing else had stuck. He started eating just meat, eggs, butter, dairy, salt, and water. Within a week the acid reflux was gone after, for as long as he can remember, he had been running to the bathroom 3 to 5 times a week, mid-meal, with a burning chest and food coming back up. After 7 days on Carnivore, my acid reflux was gone. That was the moment he knew something real was happening. The weight followed. For the first time in his life, he wasn't starving while he lost it. He felt strong.

Eight months in, he weighed 225 pounds and felt stable. His inflammation was gone. His joint pain was gone. His heel/feet pain was gone. He stopped snoring. He was sleeping better than he ever had. Carnivore Shug is now 50 years old and in the best shape of his life.
