☆ ABOUT ME ☆
I am a former tech worker who lived in NYC for 30 years. At 50, I started an Amazon FBA business. Fun, but neither career allowed time for healthy living.
Last year, I turned 60, overweight, out-of-shape, pre-diabetic, with high cholesterol, and couldn't walk 20 minutes without resting.
In August 2023, I began the carnivore diet. I lost 65 pounds in 3 months.
Now, I can walk miles, have normal cholesterol and blood pressure, and am no longer pre-diabetic. I feel 30 years younger, and I'm passionate about sharing my story to help others.

    Yeah, I was about to recommend buying a whole steak "roast" and cutting yourself. I like NY Strips, so I usually buy that whole and cut myself 1-1.5" thick steaks out of it. Next time to Costco, I"m gonna ask the butcher for a Whole Chuck Roll....and butcher it up myself, the KZread videos of that look dead simple to do. I have my own chamber vac sealer and can section everything off to freeze.

    Once a person realizes that it doesnt have to be fancy ribeyes every meal or beef every meal then I really believe carnivore is one of the cheapest ways of eating. Example, a dozen large eggs must, by law, weight at least 24 ounces (1 and a half lbs).I know my prices are cheaper here in the middle of the UDS but eggs right now can be purchased in the $1.50 range. That is only a dollar a lb for one of natures most perfect foods

    He did do an excellent job. If you like chicken and pork, you can do this even cheaper. Chicken thighs and legs are dirt cheap. Pork tenderloin is silly tasty when you marinate it and toss it on a screaming hot grill. Both usually don't push beyond the $2.50 lb range and if so not usually a whole lot higher.

    Check your local small grocery stores for weekly deals on meat. I can get on a rotating basis, ribeye 6.99 /lb, pork ribs 2.50 lb, shrimp 16-20 count 5.99 lb, etc on sale by shopping the local small stores. When the small stores don't have a sale going I'll just head to a big retailer that has that sort of everyday decent price like costco etc. I'm just saying that If you look around you might be surprised. My shopping style means that I can't just make up mind and go buy what I want that day and get the discount but that's fine as I get a big variety of things this way.

As a result, I have 30 meals for my OMAD plus 1L of pure beef tallow (as a result of pressure cooking), I'm using it to fry my eggs and also put it in my bulletproof coffee . Spend less than 50€ for whole months.

    That sirloin cap is picanha~ absolutely wonderful, very tender when cooked hot & fast, cut across the grain. The fat cap is what really shines w/picanha, adds so much flavor. This was a great haul video Jay~ well done, & thanks for sharing.=) *Almost forgot, wanted to share another way we same money on our grocery bill. We use a Sam's Club mastercard to pay for everything in our daily life, just as we would use our regular debit card. We get a percentage of cash back rewards to use however we want in store, online, or simply cash out at the customer service counter. Costco offers the same, I'm almost certain. We usually end up with about $300~ $500 a year passive income, so to speak, which we then can spend on meat in bulk at the Sam's club near us~ anywhere in the country. That's a whole lot of free meat, & it's super easy at that. We just applied for it right at the customer service counter, & away we went. We have never been credit card people, like to pay cash, but being able to use this one like cash & make it work for us is another matter entirely. We just pay it off online every time we use it, so we are never charged any interest.

Beef chuck clod or roll for $4.99 . these are primals that weigh 20+ lbs and I cut the entire thing into steaks. Some are very good and some are tough but the price is right. Bone in pork shoulder is $1.59 and 10 lb bags of chicken hind quarters are 69 cents a lb. Eggs are the last item and last week we paid $1.46. I do also eat about 1 celery bunch a week.

    Get the whole ribeye and cut your own steaks. Works great and with everything else you do they’ll last you a couple months. Also buy your ground beef in the 10lb chubs and you can usually get a better price. Also, Walmart, as much as I hate Walmart, has a 5doz box of eggs and is generally less than $2 a dozen.

    If you want to get the best bang for your buck & you are not afraid of cutting up your own meat, go to the butcher there at Costco & ask for a Chuck Roll. This is a sub-primal cut from the shoulder & upper back, straight from the cow. It is what Costco cuts up to put in the cases. 2 months ago we got one for $5.69 per pound & it was 28 pounds. $159.32 total. This month they had a special for $4.19 per pound & we got a 27 lb. $113.13 Total. Following the Butcher Wizard's KZread video, we cut it up, vacuum sealed it & froze the majority of it. If you were to buy all of the meat you get from the Chuck Roll it would cost you between $550-$600. We got 6 Chuck roasts, 7 chuck eye steaks (depending on how thick you cut them), 7 Denver steaks, about 5-6 lbs of stew meat, & we ground up the trimmings, fat & cuts to make about 6-7 lbs of hamburger meat (got a $40 grinder that attaches to my KitchenAid Mixer). Costco also has chest & a small upright freezer for $199 each. This has helped immensely with out carnivore journey.

    I saw you didn’t get stew meat anyway but for future reference, I’ve read that, with stew meat, you don’t always know what cuts are in the package so all the pieces might not cook the same. When feasible, it’s better to get a roast and cut it up yourself so that you know just what’s going into your stew.

    Actually I often stop at a Brazilian place near my house - lots of Brazilians in CT where I live. It’s like a big salad bar with barbecued meat. they sell the food by the pound, Brazilian style. I’ve eaten a ton of picanha, but never realized that top sirloin cap was the English name. Now that I think about it, they do say sirloin for picanha. And top sirloin for a cut that I like even better, called alcatra in Portuguese. My only gripe about Brazilian cooking is it’s almost impossible to get my meat cooked rare. Even getting meat cooked Medium is difficult. Most of the time its cooked to a crisp….not s hint of pink left.

    That’s actually a question I’ve been thinking about a lot lately, and one that I’m going to do a video on. I lost 50 lbs in the first 3 months, and then another 20 pounds in the next 3 months. And yes, I noticed some loose skin at 70 pounds, especially under my chin and around my throat. It kind of freaked me out to be honest. Another 4 months have passed, and I’ve plateaued. I weigh about the same as I did 4 months ago. Thankfully my skin has tightened up again. And now I’m very motivated to lose another 50 lbs. But I think my plateau has been at least partly psychologically based, and is related to not feeling good about that loose skin. Maybe it’s best not to lose the weight quite so quickly. We’ll see what happens with the next 50 pounds. To be honest, better some loose skin than 50 extra pounds…..

IMO, if a person sticks to whatever diet they chose to be on, avoiding wheat & grains, eventually our bodies will suck up the loose skin during the Fasting 14-18 hour Spring Cleaning window. IMO, that window of NO FOOD time, gives the body a chance to clean up & repair any and all damage & then the body goes into RESTORE MODE. I like your thinking about not dumping a heavy weight loss at one time. Much harder to suck up to much loose skin, I think. IMO, Focus on giving your body time to do its Spring Cleaning & Repairs, by incorporating Fasting time window of at least 16-18 hours. Good Luck to us all.
