Any non-anecdotical evidence to back this up about the carnivore diet yielding similar results as ozempic? Not being facetious, just curious.

Not that I'm aware of on that specific point. I have searched the literature, but most nutritional research on that topic just demonizes red meat with low quality observational studies (they usually advocate high carb plant based diets).
My only "real" evidence is personal and anecdotal. I lost 15kg in three months on a fatty red meat only diet. I eat 2 times per day, I don't feel hungry between meals. My mental function improved significantly, I sleep much better, and stopped snoring. I was pre-diabetic, and my blood sugar would take a long time to come down after meals (now normal). I managed to cut my serious alcohol addiction (of 15 years). There are many thousands of others with the same story.
There are doctors and academics in the space that have noticed this and are hearing the anecdotes, and they are in the process of conducting clinical research. I'm on my phone right now, so its a pain to pull up the details , but I will post some links later if I remember.

Eagerly awaiting such studies. Diet science has a very flawed history of strong convictions that turned out wrong. Like the demonisation of fat in my childhood while feeding kids pure sugar for energy... We've come a long way since. Good thing that, overall, science is self correcting in the long run.
