Carnivore literally saved my life, 14 months ago I was 715 lbs. I was stuck in a recliner for over 2 years and I had congestive heart failure. I was on oxygen 24-7 and I was suicidally depressed and had crippling anxiety. I have tried everything to lose weight and keep it off and nothing worked. I was 600lbs when I was 14 years old. I was helplessly addicted to soda and carbs. I'm down to 478lbs now and off all medications. Off the oxygen and completely have my mobility back. I can drive again. The best part is I have zero food addiction anymore! I am completely free for the first time in my life and I'm completely free from depression and anxiety! It is truly a mericle!

I don't know about most people but I lost respect for Kevin years ago after watching his Netflix comedy. It seemed all he did was down and make fun of people during the whole comedy that wasn't even funny. Then afterwards I hear about him being a real true jerk if you was to meet him, go figure. It makes sense, I mean Adam Sandler got James started and everyone knows what would happen if Sandler was to let loose on you verbally lol. Only thing he ever really did good and funny was king of queens, and that's cause Doug Heffernan was a complete narcissistic idiot, that only did and got what he wanted on the show. His movies now these days I will not watch and even give him a chance cause he's always the same HE'S JUST KEVIN JAMES. Rich or celebrity or not he's just in my opinion one of the worst actors. Heck I'd almost classify him in the same as Corey Feldman, the little dude(what you talkin bout willis).

The relationship with food runs deep and is also constantly changing. For someone who doesn't, at least somewhat, commit to understanding that relationship, it is very difficult to overcome bad eating habits. We have been eating since birth...with reward, comfort, safety, family, work, romance, friendship, luxury, kindness, nostalgia, etc..all attached to food. To suddenly decide to redefine or make some seismic shift in what that means to us is almost always a recipe for failure. Even before we get into physically related issues (gut biome, physical addictions, dopamine, etc) or perhaps cultural or even economic issues, it seems those emotional aspects have to be under control. Wad that all up into an aging ball either being pushed up or rolling down the hill and it's overwhelming for many people. AND on a much simpler level, pizza and coca cola is just so fu**in' good!

It could be other way as well. Eating carbs gives a dopamine high, then blood glucose spikes, causing an insulin spike, then sugar crash, then feel miserable again until next carb intake. It's a downward spiraling vicious cycle. Carbs can cause depression. If you go pure carnivore, you feel naturally high all the time. And then weight starts to come off. Next thing you know, you are active again getting exercise endorphins.

Geez man my heart goes out to you Kevin because I know exactly how you feel. Tried all the diets and every single one of them works….while you’re on it but the second you’re off the diet the weight comes right back and more. I got in to water fasting on my 40th birthday, lost 99 lbs in 4 months, didn’t go straight through without eating but did a bunch of 4-7 day fasts and as long as you’re replacing electrolytes then it’s pretty safe. But then went through a separation and moved out and became depressed again and my comfort is food so I gained about 80 of those pounds back and it is so crushing psychologically to go through that. I’m back in a better state of mind and I’m making progress again but the fear of weight gain never goes away. I look forward to seeing your doc and best of luck to you.

Love Kevins honesty. I can relate. Great interview piece!

After 40 this truth about bad food becomes even more obvious. At 46.5 yrs and women’s hormones taking a nose dive, I really started to see and feel the damage. And I’ve been an athlete all my life. MMA, BJJ, triathlons, etc. You can’t outrun improper eating. Sugar, carbs, and your DNA all the core variables most of us still don’t even comprehend.. my youthful days of fast metabolism are over.

Tbh I have a bit of an all or nothing personality so if I start snacking on let's just say going 1k calories over for the day when i've been in check fora week or two it can so easily turn into a couple thousand more if you're used to/can eat a lot and the thing you're cheating with is high in calories.

Yep.... Just implement a High Carb day. Average adult male can store 1100 carbs ez without getting fat. No fat on that day low protein and High carbs! It will speed up your metabolism like crazy!. Next day go back to regular diet example 1 gram per lb of protein and say 200 carbs 30 grams of fat. You will get lean as hell!

@@RyneLandersright. I am someone who can’t just have one little snack. 1 nutty bar turns into 2 real quick and then a banana and some Oreos…just beat to abstain from it all together most days.

A few months ago I weighed 380, now I weight about 320. I didn't diet that hard, I just improved my diet overall and tried to keep the calories reasonable. I had been walking quite a bit since the beginning of 2020 but that didn't seem to affect weight much but it did improve my health overall. Initially I couldn't walk 100 yards without needing to take a break due to back pain and needing to catch my breath. Every week I walked a little farther every day, now I can go as far as 3 1/2 miles, however I keep it to 2 1/2 miles or less, more than that wipes out my back, knees and feet for the rest of the day. I didn't really start to lose weight though until I started lifting weights. I don't lift that much either, just three times/week, circuit training with 6 exercises @15 reps each and 3 circuits but it's made the difference. I've stalled though so I need to do better with my diet, do some intermittent fasting as well. I really believe the key to keeping gains is to make it a lifestyle, something you will be doing your whole life, not just something you do to reach some short term goal and then return to normal.

Losing weight and gaining weight is dangerous. Those ups and downs are hard on your organs, especially your heart. Trying to maintain a consistency, is the key.

Kevin's tranparency,honesty and humility is refreshing.

That dude Doug used to be a package delivery guy and he delivered some packages to my neighborhood in Queens NY. Cool to see he is doing well these days.

Kevin James and Joe Rogan can be the same person. Great duo.

I’ve cut back on alcohol, tobacco, also sugars and I’ll be honest. I’m feeling way better every day. (don’t give me wrong. I do get headaches and I do get a little lightheaded from time to time but I’m feeling a lot better while losing weight and just feeling good overall.)

This interview was so great. Such perfect exchange of information.

I'm 19 and I'm struggling with it myself. I'm actually in really good shape relative to most people my age. But I know what healthy humans are and they're not 240 at 5'9 no matter how much I can bench or squat. For me it boils down to addictive personality. My entire family history has drug or alcohol problems. I get going and then when life starts to weigh down and I lose the rewards I seek it in other ways mostly soda or food. I've cried over it before. I'm not sure how to permanently get it but it's important that we never give up. That's what matters, fighting for life

I'm glad to hear you speak to the addictive properties of it all, because once you said your weight & height, it was clear to me what was the problem. You're just going to HAVE to do the "mental light switch" system! YOU are going to have to flip the switch in your mind that makes you perceive it the way you do! ~The Will to be healthier has to be STRONGER and completely outweigh the drive to eat those certain types of foods!!~ You HAVE to hate it; without hating yourself for partaking in it. Have a clear mental focus on what that kind of Lifestyle looks like, and CHOOSE IT!!! Have nothing but the interest to stay with it, even if there's moments of slipping. You just need to make sure the "slip" is just a slip, and NOT a landslide! You should also look in to the benefits of detoxing with certain herbal teas. Google "natural herbal teas for detoxing and weight loss". ⚠️⚠️⚠️If you take prescription drugs, then I would STRONGLY lean toward caution with including such medicinals in your diet(if you have a doctor, always talk to your physician first! As the herbal meds are not for everyone)...but if you are not taking any Pharmaceuticals AND you do not have any severe pre-existing health conditions (AND remember that with ANY herbal medicinal that you research and have interest in using, make sure to RESEARCH and UNDERSTAND its side effects and the type of people with ailments it might specifically negatively effect...and then go from there)⚠️⚠️⚠️ ...but if you do not have those issues, you could have some great success with herbal medicinals. I personally lost a lot of weight using them; along with fasting and proper exercise; and the benefit they mostly gave was making it much easier to keep that weight off. I think for you 90% of your battle is going to be mental, but with a proper strong internal Will & understanding of how these chemical elements that are regularly put in our food make it that much more of a challenge for anyone; let alone someone with genetical chemical dependencies. I think that's more than half the battle for you. If you can wrap your mind around that and stay focused to these understandings & goals; you'll have the type of success that you want in your health! Good luck with things!!

I definitely identify with Kevin James. I never got THAT big but I was a sugar addict and one day someone sent me a picture of myself and I literally was shocked and barely recognized myself. Food and sugar addiction is legit man. Not as immediately destructive as drugs but definitely will get you there. I started intermittent fasting and lost 40 pounds in a few months. This helped me make more conscious decisions and start to change my life style. My legs are destroyed from the army and three double leg surgeries so, more than a simple walk or short hike with no elevation isn’t really in the cards for me. Just have to change the lifestyle and make focusing on what you eat and when you eat your new lifestyle. It sucks a bit but I want to be there for my kids when I’m older. If I can do it, anyone can. Just gotta take it one day at a time.

Thank you Kevin for your honest down to earth relatable sharing on this

I'm a sugar addict on carnivore now. I had a relapse this week, I feel so bad mentally and physically. Thought I could have a cheat day...NOPE. there are no cheat days when you are an addict. It's just sobriety and moving forward. Now I have to go through carb withdrawals again which are miserable. But I felt amazing for about 2 months while I was clean eating. I highly suggest carnivore for those wanting to lose weight and get in better shape. It's helped my physical and mental health. Just be aware of possible diahreah the first month or two and carb withdrawals. Eat more than you think you need and add fats like butter or tallow. Even if you keep having the runs it will clear up. Also watch out for xylitol and artificial sweeteners in gum and mints. It can give you the runs.

I love when Joe talks workouts and diet, that’s what made me follow him.

A recent health scare got me on a routine. I used to be just like Kevin. It's hard to break out of that mind set. When I got sick due to kidney and gallstone problems it woke me up. All from bad dieting and barely exercising. Then I developed dysphagia and it made me really take my health seriously. I guess with the right motivation, you can get on the right track again. Mine was staying alive. It's a scary thing when you're losing a ton of weight and can't eat properly. Before that I was on the heavy side for most of my life and that came with joint pain, but this is something else. Going on 31 I am now just finding out how to balance everything. Diet, excercise. Work and life balance. Sure it gets mundane, but I'm definitely on the way to being the healthiest I've ever been. Just takes time and discipline.

I feel you Kevin. Same. Joes right Keto is the way. The only time i have control of my diet is when eating 20 grams or less of carbs. If you can last 2-3 weeks it gets easyier. simplifies decisions.

I've been at my goal weight for several months now by having a healthy diet, but man, I know the struggle. I appreciate the honesty of KJ talking about this. Anyone who has dealt with weight issues knows it ain't easy.

Good for you, Kevin! I walk for 60 minutes, with no pausing, six days a week. That kicks my metabolism into a 24 hour fat burning mode. I admit I can’t have more than 15% fat in the food I eat and I’m supposed to eat between 2000 and 2500 calories a day if I want to lose weight (via Dana Thornock’s 2000+ Calorie fat burning diet) but I only listen to my favorite books while doing the walk. And it’s really a great motivator.

Got on carnivore 3 yrs ago and its fanFNtastic! Within 2 weeks, the sweet cravings were completely gone. I never thought that would happen. But the craziest thing is the energy. Felt like lightning was coming out of my fingertips. Im 53 and its astonishing how good i feel. And Joe's correct, your never hungry. Sometimes have to make yourself eat.

We usually do a biblical 21 or 40-day fast at the beginning of every year. I've personally completed four or five 40-day fasts with only liquid, mainly water. There is nothing like it, and you grow so much closer to God. The Bible, prayer, and discipline will carry you through. Start small at three days and go up from there.

Went from 190lbs to 170lbs by making overnight oats and eating salads more often. Staying hydrated, playing basketball and lifting at the gym. I’m 44yrs old and lately have been playing the best basketball of my life without anymore knee pain. Losing weight is so important for so many reasons

1000% agree with Joe . I have found that doing the carnivore diet; it changed my relationship with food. Meaning, it was more like what Joe is saying, where you’re eating because you have to, but not because of this unhealthy relationship with food. When I do cheat and eat something outside of my diet, I find that I don’t want to eat as much of it, and my satiation trigger is stronger.

I eat breakfast and dinner 6 days a week. No lunch no snacks. Cheat day? In my house we call that the Sabbath. I feast on Sundays.

I think Kevin answered his own question, and i only realize this because i'm the same way as him. The reason he can't stay consistent is because he goes hard and extreme. It's a weird blend of perfectionism and lack of balance. When people like us commit to something, we give it 1000% and pour every bit of our heart and soul into it. But then we either have a little slip up that makes us give up, or we decided to reward ourselves for doing so good, and a cheat day becomes a cheat week, becomes a cheat month, always telling ourselves "i did it before so i can do it again no problem...tomorrow." But that never comes until we've fallen so far off the wagon that we lost all the progress we made the time before and then some, and hit rock bottom. Again. Oops i just accidentally used this video for personal therapy.
