Week 10 – The Power of the Right Diet: Fueling Life with Carnivore

Well, this is a bit more exciting than my usual daily reports! I’ve been having a blast trying out different ways to share my journey on this COMAD (Carnivore + One Meal A Day) protocol, and I have to say—I’m so glad I made this change!

This diet is hands down the most amazing thing I’ve ever done for my body.

Last night, I slept seven full hours—a rare luxury for me. I woke up feeling pumped with energy, ready to tackle the day. With only one more workday before the weekend, I’ll be spending my Saturday and Sunday moving into a new place—closer to work, less Sydney traffic, and fewer tolls. That’s more time for what matters and less stress weighing me down. Happy days!

Daily Progress

Here’s how I’m doing today:

Weight Loss

DateWeight (lbs)
Weight Goal176.0 (80.0 kg)
2 Jan 2025 – Day 1235.5 (106.8 kg)
31 Jan 2025 – Month 1209.4 (95.0 kg)
28 Feb 2025 – Month 2200.1 (91.2 kg)
7 Mar 2025 – Week 9201.9 (91.6 kg)
14 Mar 2025 – Week 10194.7 (88.3 kg)

📉 This Week’s Change: -7.2 lbs (-3.3 kg)
📉 Total Loss (in 69 days): -40.8 lbs (-18.5 kg)
📉 Average Loss Per Day: -0.59 lbs (-0.27 kg)

Good progress this week! I’ve stayed 100% carnivore, and my weight loss is steady. The one thing I’ve adjusted is not always sticking to one meal a day on workdays. To keep my energy levels high, I now eat breakfast and lunch, plus take my vitamins at midday. It hasn’t affected my weight loss at all, so it’s nice to know I have flexibility in the plan. More things to experiment with as I go!

💪 This Week’s Systolic Change (First number): -15
💪 This Week’s Diastolic Change (Second number): -11.5

My blood pressure is finally under 140/90 on a regular basis, and I’ve learned to manage it even better. I’ve also started taking medication once a week, if I need to, to keep it in check. No more life-threatening highs like I had in past years. The weight loss has been a game changer for my heart health!

Blood Glucose

6 Mar 2025 – Week 95.5
7 Mar 2025 – Week 94.8
14 Mar 2025 – Week 104.1

📊 This Week’s Change: -0.7 mmol/L
📊 Days in Normal Range (3.9–5.6 mmol/L): 60 out of 69

Perfect! Exactly where I need to be.

The best part? These short-term wins are just the beginning. The long-term benefits will far outweigh anything I see today. This is just the start of an even healthier life!

I’ll be back next week with more insights on my Carnivore Diet, and back tomorrow with a post on “How Toxins in Food Affect Metabolism and Fat Storage.”

Until then, keep pushing forward, stay disciplined, and make choices that bring you closer to your goals. In other words, have a great week!

See you! 😊

Warmly,
Paul

Helping people is what lights me up. I’m a curious soul who loves diving into new ideas, uncovering hidden gems of knowledge and sharing what I find. Sometimes, my scientific side takes over, and I overthink things. But I’ve got a creative streak too. There’s an artist in me who loves to dream big and imagine the possibilities. But at my core, if I had to use one word to describe myself—it would be Engineer. I like to build things—whether it’s ideas, solutions, or meaningful connections. So let’s explore, learn, and grow together. I promise to keep it real, keep it fun, and always keep it supportive.
