  • From 421lbs to Keto Simple: Dustin Cade on Weight Loss, Freedom, and Finding Contentment | 1
    Dec 10 2025

    Fahad welcomes back one of the very first supporters of the business – Dustin Cade (@KetoSimple)—for a heartfelt, long-overdue catch-up. From weighing 421 lbs and facing hernia + CPAP reality in 2016 to now living a simple, free, and deeply contented low-carb life, Dustin shares the real story: the early zealotry, the massive simplification, surviving skyrocketing meat prices, and why constant happiness is a myth (but lasting contentment is very real).

    They talk rising food costs, buying half-cows, the birth of CocoZen (yes, Dustin is literally the reason that 12-oz jar exists), favorite easy recipes, family, freedom, and the ultimate lesson they’ve both learned after almost a decade in this space: keep it stupidly simple and know yourself.

    Key Takeaways

    • Happiness is fleeting; aim for contentment instead.
    • Simplify everything – food, message, life. Complexity kills long-term success.
    • Keto/low-carb doesn’t have to be fancy ingredients or hours in the kitchen (hamburger patties, eggs, and frozen thighs still win).
    • Meat prices are insane everywhere, but ground beef, chicken thighs, turkey, Costco rotisserie chickens, and buying direct from farmers or splitting a cow are current lifesavers.
    • The CocoZen jar exists because Dustin literally asked for “a bigger Energy Pod” years ago.
    • True freedom today isn’t just money – it’s controlling your own time and being able to help the people you love.
    • Get to know yourself deeply (your triggers, your strengths) so you can design the simplest system that actually works for YOU forever.
    • Community > perfection. None of us are perfect, and that’s exactly why we need each other.
    • A raw, real, brotherly conversation full of hard-earned wisdom.
