Woman who has only eaten meat, eggs and dairy for two years reveals shocking impact it had on her body

A mum who only ate meat, fish, eggs and full-fat dairy for two years has revealed what sort of impact the dramatic diet had on her body.

Olivia Khwaja spent a couple of years on a high-fat, low-carb keto diet and went from weighing 95kg to 75kg, but then in 2022, she decided to switch to a carnivore diet where she cut out all plant-based foods and only consumed animal products.

It's basically the anti-vegan diet, and Olivia apparently enjoyed so much success with it that her weight fell to 55kg and she's got the rest of her family to follow her with it.

Her husband Greg has lost 39kg in weight, while their children Eden and Bailey have also tried the diet.

While health experts say that eating too much meat can make it more likely that a person will get bowel cancer and that you should have a balanced diet with fruit and vegetables, Olivia says that adopting the carnivore diet has given her smoother skin and a clearer mind along with the weight loss.

She said her family was 'flourishing', and told PA Real Life that after just a few weeks of the carnivore diet she 'woke up and I just felt this feeling of euphoria'.

"Just looking at the sky, I was like, ‘It’s just so blue and so beautiful’," she said of the impact the diet had on her mind.

"It’s like I was living under a cloud without realising and it just lifted.

"I’ve never pushed either of my children into this. They’re on their own journey, but I think they’re both happier avoiding addictive foods and love the freedom that comes with it."

Olivia said that she focused her advice on cutting out processed foods from her diet, and had wanted to make a change to her life after she lost her parents in 2014 and 2014.

Her mum had type 2 diabetes which made her 'think that I should improve my health so I don't get the conditions when I'm older'.

That's what first led her to the keto diet in 2020, which helped her lose 20kg and dropped her BMI from 38.3 to 30.3, while she moved onto the carnivore diet after seeing 'rave reviews' and it got her the next step and she had a BMI of 22.2, a healthy weight.

She was sceptical at first as the diet didn't contain fruit or vegetables but she kept an open mind and enjoyed the results very much.

In a normal day, Olivia will eat her first meal of the day at about 4pm, which is normally eggs and sardines.

A few hours later she has a large steak cooked in beef tallow with a homemade mayonnaise, while at the weekend she and her family will feast on homemade jerky, bacon sausages and chicken liver pate with no bread.

She said: "I just buy eggs, proper butter, and meat whenever we want it and keep it in the fridge.

“Whenever I get hungry, I go into the fridge and cook something. We eat everything simply... it’s a simple life.”

"I’ve never felt so good in my life – I can’t remember feeling this positive and healthy, and having so much energy, as a child or a teenager, it’s transformed my life."

She shares her health journey on Instagram under the handle @oliviakhwaja, and Olivia claims she has not received criticism from her 10,000 followers or her children’s school.
