Summary

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Laura and Chris Spath have lost 250 pounds combined due to their joint adoption of the carnivore diet. After years of yo-yo dieting and struggling with their weight, these two were able to turn the tides. Today they are here to share their inspirational story with us and let us know how they achieved such remarkable weight loss.

In this discussion, Tro, Laura, and Chris talk about carb and sugar addiction, the 'learned helplessness' that can keep one trapped in a vicious cycle of eating processed food, how to stop failing at failing to stick with your diet, low carb replacements for sugary foods, how stress eating can still effect a person following the carnivore diet, the power of a supportive community for achieving weight loss goals, and tips for setting up an effective defense against the impulse to eat processed, sugary foods.
