To follow a carnivore diet in its truest sense, you only eat animal meats and fats. Those who practice it report weight loss, blood sugar stability, more energy, better mental focus, and the list goes on.
A criticism of the diet is that it lacks research, leading to the question, “How does staying on this diet affect long-term health?”
I agree that there are benefits, and I agree that we won’t know the full health story until more substantial studies have been done. So, I thought, what would happen if I added a few days of carnivore a month to my typical low-carb diet? In other words, practice carnivore intermittently. And what I am calling Intermittent Carnivore was born.
This blog post shares what I eat and how often I do it.

The bathroom scale is the tool most people use to measure the progress of their weight loss diet. But is a daily weigh-in working for you or against you?
If the number is not what you wanted to see, do you give yourself a pep talk and get back to work? Or do you say to yourself, “This isn’t working, so having a treat won’t matter.”
If the number is what you’d hoped for, do you pat yourself on the back and gain motivation? Or do you look at it as a window of opportunity? Maybe say to yourself, “I’m doing great, so having a treat won’t matter.”
If your goal is weight loss and your daily weigh-ins are inspiring you, fantastic! Keep doing what you’re doing. But if not, or you find that you keep losing the same few pounds over and over again without any real progress, I have a new approach for you that takes very little effort but is just enough to shake up your routine and get you to the finish line.
