Use these carnivore strategies to break through plateaus
Hey y’all! If you’re struggling with weight loss, I recently chatted with Carnivore JT, and he shared some powerful strategies for breaking through plateaus with a carnivore diet. This is such a helpful conversation, and I’m excited for you to check it out! Here are some of the key takeaways:
- Reverse Dieting: JT explains how gradually increasing calories—rather than jumping into a low-calorie diet—can boost your metabolism. This “reverse dieting” approach helps your body adapt and prevents the metabolic slowdown that often comes with cutting calories too quickly.
- Eating Enough Fat and Protein: If you’ve been trying to cut calories, you might actually be under-eating, which can stall weight loss. JT recommends making sure you’re getting enough fat (around 60-80% of your intake) to support hormone health and energy levels. Protein and fat are your best friends for keeping the body fueled and happy on carnivore.
- Maintaining Muscle Mass: Building and preserving muscle is essential for a healthy metabolism and makes a huge difference in long-term fat loss. Strength training can be a fantastic addition to carnivore, helping you stay strong and feel your best.
- Focus on Sleep and Stress: Poor sleep and high stress can increase cortisol levels, which can make it harder to lose weight. JT and I agree that quality rest and managing stress are essential for successful weight loss on carnivore.
- Community Support: Finally, remember that you don’t have to do this alone! Finding a supportive community, like our My Zero Carb Life group, can help keep you motivated and encouraged.
These are just a few highlights, and there’s so much more in the full video. I know you’ll love JT’s advice as much as I did—so grab a notebook, give it a watch, and let’s keep making progress together!
