Carnivore all the way, baby! Or even keto or low carb, if you can't do carnivore.
I didn't lose weight on it myself (didn't need to) but I got a lot healthier.
Close family lost 20 pounds fairly easily on keto, and has kept it off for 5 months so far, continuing with keto.
If you're interested in Carnivore, here's what I'd do:
- Read the book The Big Fat Surprise - very well researched book on why standard diet advice is garbage (see my post on it here #956777). It's like de-programming yourself, from the cult of the current nutritional guidelines. Most of what you hear (saturated fat is bad, plants and veggies and fiber is good, meat is bad) is false.
- Listen to some of the Carnivore podcasts/youtube channels. Dr Ken Berry, Dr Anthony Chaffee, Dr Shawn Baker. There so many interviews out there about people healing from autoimmune issues, especially skin and gut. And, of course, lots of weight loss.
- If you're going to start carnivore, look at some the videos entitled something like "top problems when starting carnivore". Oftentimes it's smooth sailing, but there are known issues that can crop up, that can be easily avoided.
