A man who is 'obsessed with becoming a dad' has shed almost half his bodyweight by eating a 'carnivore' diet consisting of just meat and eggs in a bid to improve his fertility.

Isaiah Caldwell, 28, from St Louis, Missouri, tipped the scales at 434 pounds at his heaviest - but has now lost a staggering 210 pounds.

He started to make changes to his lifestyle after being told his weight might be causing fertility issues - and now weighs 224 pounds and feels 'a million times better'.

Tech salesman Isaiah, lost the weight by working out and following the strict carnivore diet, which sees followers ditch anything that has not come from an animal - leaving them with meat, eggs and dairy.

Isaiah, who is 6ft4 in height, is now happier and healthier than ever and he and his wife Amanda, 29, are still trying for a baby.

These hams eat themselves into oblivion then want a kewpie doll when they finally apply some self-control. Congrats on joining the human race pal.

I’m always suspicious of these fad diets. So, was it the food he ate or the working out that made the difference?

I’ve known several people who have had the gastric bypass or lap band surgery to lose weight. They are always advise afterwards to observe strict dietary guidelines. Hello?!

“diet’ consisting of meat, eggs and dairy...”

His cardiologist isn’t the only one at risk of a heart attack because of that diet 😏

Any diet works if you stick with it.

How is it a “fad” if that’s how people ate, before we had supermarkets, and the availability of all kinds of foods all year around?

Our bodies were built to be cavemen.

That’s inspiring and I could use it on the weight loss front.

Progress is slow but steady.

A couple of years ago I lost a hundred pounds in about 2 weeks but not by choice. A diet to almost die of.

It might work. Adipose tissue is known to be active in the hormonal balance between androgen and estrogen.

I've known at least two people who had gastric bypass who got fat again because of lack of self control. It doesn't work all by itself.

Keto is not an fad diet. It has been used since the 1920s to control epilepsy.

You cannot out-exercise a bad diet.
