A mum who was stuck yo-yo dieting for 25 years has lost three stone by eating a "lion diet" of just meat – and says it is the “best thing to happen” to her.

Courtney Luna, 39, had tried every diet in the book but found herself constantly slipping up and struggled to keep the pounds from piling on.

The-mum-of-two decided to give a ‘lion diet’ a go – only eating meat and animal products – when her husband, Jeff, 41, saw someone doing it on TikTok.

She started by also eating fruit but quickly gave this up when she found herself over-indulging on berries.

Courtney has a pound of meat a day – typically beef – and snacks on pork rinds, meat sticks, boiled eggs and butter.

At her biggest Courtney was 13st 7lbs and a US size large but her carnivore diet has seen her drop to a 10st 3lbs and a US size eight.

She credits the diet to cleaning up her acne prone skin and says it is the “best thing” to happen to her.

00:00 I broke my fast with some burgers with lots of salt. I like them nice and thin
00:10 and a little char broiled. Then I have some bacon that I baked and then the
00:15 shrimp which tastes more like lobster than lobster does. Cook from frozen at
00:20 400 degrees in the air fryer for 10 minutes stirring halfway and then I
00:23 whipped up these soft steamed eggs so ooey and gooey. Love them.
00:42 It's so funny how triggered people are getting because I'm eating butter. I mean
00:53 you'll eat it in cookies, you'll spread it on toast, but there's something about
00:57 just eating it right off the block that makes people's heads explode. I love it
01:02 cold straight from the fridge. It's a nice texture, it's delicious, it's salty
01:07 and it just lubes my arteries right up so everything just flows so nicely.

01:45 Diet day five. So the last few days the scale has not moved but today it did. Had
01:51 a hot cup of electrolytes, headed out the door to take my kiddos to our co-op
01:57 class. I didn't have time to do breakfast when I got home I had half a pound of
02:01 ground beef and I had an early dinner. I was just kidding about eating it raw. I
02:05 am not quite there in my journey, not sure if I ever will be. Overall I am
02:09 feeling fantastic. My energy levels are much better without coffee. Feeling good.
