Battista Locatelli ([@joyfulcarnivore](https://www.instagram.com/joyfulcarnivore/)) has been sober from his former meth & heroin addictions for almost 5 years, has lost over 100 lbs on a carnivore diet, turned his life around, and helped his partner lose over 50 lbs as well. He’s the operations manager for 7 sober living homes in southern Utah, over 176 residents in early recovery. Battista has actually lost 100 lbs over 10 times before finding a way to maintain it. He’s currently getting his master's degree in social work to become a licensed clinical therapist.
