Your journey has been a lot like mine.
I hover between 175-180lbs and have never felt better. I am about 90% carnivore with the inclusion of broccoli, honey(on my ribeyes), and dark chocolate(which now gives me slight jitters anytime I eat it). It amazes me how so many people told me I would have issues when I started this nearly a year ago. The only downside was having to spend a lot of money on new clothing. My bloodwork is also damn near perfect, my LDL is lower than it was when I was eating a SAD(standard american diet) and I eat FAR more saturated fat now than I ever did.
Also I have been doing continuous 18-6 intermittent fasting with 2 meals per day.
