A little fat could even help make your fat loss more successful! 1. Eating Fat Displaces Eating Carbs. When you look at the macronutrient percentages of your diet, everything needs to add up to 100 percent. Eating more of one macronutrient means that your intake of another macronutrient needs to decrease.
Studies show that healthy fats, not militant calorie counting or low-fat diets, can help you get lean. In human experiments, those who ate high-fat diets had a much faster metabolism. Low-fat, high-carb diets spiked insulin, subsequently slowing metabolism and storing as belly fat.
“It may seem crazy to say ‘eating more can sometimes be the key to losing weight,’ but when you are talking about the type of food you eat, then this might not be as insane as you think,” says Isabel Butler, a nutritionist for Spoon Guru.Eating natural foods that contain fat helps weight loss efforts by providing more satiety than low-fat foods, especially highly processed ones. The texture of fat, along with how it moves slowly through the digestive system, signals our brains that we have enjoyed a satisfying meal.It can seem terrifying to eat more, but rest assured, not only will your metabolism get the kick it needs to jumpstart your weight loss again, your body could also end up shedding more fat and hanging onto precious muscle, which in the long run will help keep you strong and help encourage the weight to stay away.
People who think that eating more caused them to start losing fat again after a significant period of no fat loss (which was supposedly caused by “ not eating enough “) are always wrong. In reality, if they did indeed start losing fat after “eating more,” it’s because they actually ended up unknowingly eating less than before.A high-fat diet for weight loss can definitely help. Just make sure you choose healthy fats and minimally processed foods.
Chia seeds, walnuts, avocado, almonds, macadamia nuts, grass-fed meat, wild salmon and olive oil are all excellent choices.This Woman Lost 77 Pounds By Eating More Fat. Here’s How It Works.
Candy Spiegel was ready to give up her weight loss battle—until a revolutionary new way of eating changed everything.The plus side to TRF is that you can still eat fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, healthy fats and whole grains, which is your best bet for losing weight. If you have diabetes or other blood sugar issues, make sure that you consult with your doctor before trying TRF.The idea of eating fat in order to lose fat is obviously appealing.
Oils and fats are filling and soothing, so prospective dieters feel they might not have to sacrifice as much. And everyone knows.Think of food as your body’s kindling; it sparks your metabolism, making weight loss possible.
When you’re eating enough, the body first uses food for.If you’re looking to lose weight (and keep it off permanently), eat more, not less. Here are some tips to get you started: 1. Start your day with a big breakfast and snack about three hours later.
Maybe nosh on a piece of fruit or some whole wheat crackers with peanut butter. 2. Have lunch at a reasonable time and snack about three hours.Weight loss doesn’t always equal fat loss. When you lose weight, muscle mass tends to be reduced as well. However, what you really want to lose is.
By Christy Brissette. September 26, 2016. Fat makes your meals more palatable and helps you feel full, so it’s no wonder the high-fat ketogenic diet is increasing in popularity. The diet has.
I hope you’re able to see why calories are far from the whole picture for weight loss, and how eating more of the right foods can stoke your metabolic fire so you stay lean and healthy. References Blom A, et al. Effect of a high-protein breakfast on the postprandial ghrelin response.

I just uploaded a video on how I sped up my metabolism and EAT MORE, to GET LEANER and BE HAPPIER! I’d love any feedback! I really hope I’m able to help others change their lives the way I’ve been able to change mine:)
“Eat as much as you can and move as much as you can” Is what I heard from nutrition therapist, since then, I love living again and losing easily now… also my hunger is back, so I go by that.
Hello I have a question and I’m confused. I did intermittent fasting and it was making me gain weight and I went back on eating 3 a day and 3 healthy snacks and it makes me lose weight? I eat alot of chicken & fish. But my question is why is it making me lose weight if I eat alot lol.
hi, I have learned that the sugar is the main problem of inflammation and high cholesterol is just the side effect of the problem. as a matter of fact I tell everybody that the must cut the sugar and eat healthy fat, long story short here is the problem. I am 48 years old, 182 centimeter high and 95 kilos skinny fat person. the last blood test was last week. my blood sugar is 75 (rang 60 110), cholesterol 261(110 200), hdl 50 (45 90), ldl 186 (0 155) so question is, with this low glucose how can I deal with it? shall I cut the fat even healthy one?! thx and hope I get the answer. respect from austria
I tried intermittent fasting and gained 7 pounds over 3 weeks. I said screw it and started eating again. About 2500 or more a day and I lost 7 pounds in a week. Wtf? I believe the body tries to regulate where u should be weight wise and needs the fuel to function optimally. When I was fasting, my body basically shut down I think.
When I eat a high fat breakfast, I often forget to eat breakfast. Lol
I originally lost weight by eating 1600 calories a day. Since then I’ve gotten really active and work a job that involved being on my feet for 10h a day. I wanted to lose a bit more weight and spent ages trying and failing to stick to around 1700 calories because ‘the average woman needs 2000’. Turns out my TDEE is now 2800 which Is why l was so hungry and couldn’t stick to it. Now I’m enjoying 2400cals a day and the weight is finally shifting again and my workouts are improving! ��
I recently found your channel and I appreciate your view a lot! I’m 49 and have almost 200 pounds to lose to reach goal. I’ve been doing WW since July 2019 and I’ve lost 72 pounds so far. I know programs aren’t for everyone, but it has been wonderful for me. And I’m regard to this video, I’m so glad I’m doing WW because the points are stepped down as you lose. So it is a very livable program because you aren’t starting at an unsustainable level. I’ve lost 9 daily points since I first started. I totally agree that a gradual calorie decrease is much more sustainable.
I enjoy your videos and I’m interested in starting Keto, but doesn’t all that animal fat clog your arteries and raise cholesterol?
If healthy fats won’t make u fat, then why did they call it FATS to begin with SMH
If I eat a pound of 73% round beef, do I eat the or drink the fat?
I’m kind of ‘recovering’ from heavy calorie restriction. I was eating like 450 calories a day and burning 600 calories. That went for 2 years. I was obsessed.. I started at 67. 1 kg and now I’m 65.5 kg. At my ‘best’ I was 63 kg. I was eating so little and didn’t even lose that much weight. Now I just did a lot of home workouts for 4 days and I’m not eating more calories (500+-, slowly trying to eat more) but more protein in the calories. Now I am 67 kg (btw I’m 165 cm). I was always very muscular and very sporty. I hope It’s muscle and water weight… I’m just so anxious about gaining weight�� At least I don’t have to go to school at the moment
When I’m cutting I like to pick something comfortable like 1800 and then add 100 calories a week until I am dropping around 1.5-2 pounds a week
It does not help that calories are notoriously under reported on food labels, by as much as 40%! That is absolutely unacceptable.
For me, it has always seemed that I can grind and grind on the treadmill for hours and hours, and end up losing half a gram at the end of the week. However, eat one snickers bar, gain 5kg.
I started cycling, and I actually gained weight. I swear I did not alter my eating habits one bit, and over a month I gained 5kg. I thought it was the water, but when I banged up my knee and had to hang up the riding and running, the weight did not come off. How does this happen?
I don´t understand!.. why the body is forced into free your body fat, while you eat a lot of it.??????????
I feel like this can also apply really well to someone struggling with anorexia. The explanation of ‘how little can I put in’ really harkens back to those old days of me trying to cut out more and more meals, trying to starve myself as much as possible in order to feel more ‘successful’ with myself. It’s a toxic thought to be in, and the idea that that isn’t the right way to go, even for those who do need to lose the weight, makes a hell of a lot of sense.
Dear DrKenDBarry. I have started eating bacon for the 1st time in my life. I don’t dry it out and make it crispy… Is that bad? I like it softer. Although I have to force myself to not pick the fat away from the meat. Am I missing out on the benefits of bacon? I am one month in on keto and have moved from 144.50 (5.4″) to 138. I look better & feel better. I would like to be 125 before I turn 57 this spring. I also don’t plan to return to the American diet. I hope to turn my 2 son’s in their 20’s… Keto, once they see me at my best!
This video notification came at the right time for me. I’ve been eating about 1000 calories a day for the last two weeks. I dropped 9 pounds since. So I should eat more? The thing is, I can eat 1330 calories a day to loose weight, but it’s the macro nutrients that’s messing me up. I can only eat 88 grams of protein, 46 grams of fat, and 103 grams of carbs so I’m finding it difficult to eat 1330 calories in a day because one or more of my macros is maxed out before I even get to 1330 calories. Usually protein or fat get maxed and I typically stay way below my allotted carb amount anyway. So what do I do? Anyone, please help ����
I have been stuck it the same 150-155lb range for awhile now and still have 10-20lbs I’d like to lose (after losing 65) and I’ve had 4 different trainers/coaches tell me I need to eat more than the 1200 cals I’ve restricted myself to. Unfortunately, once I try to eat more, I give myself the green light to go bananas eating more, end up binging and then the guilt kicks in. I was recently told to stick to 1200-1300 cals since that’s what I’m used to, but have a midweek and weekend “smart” cheat. Qudoba or a good burger or steak (still quality foods just higher cals). I’m going to try it and hope i can keep myself from the downward spiral of binging.
@larissaispumped
I don’t think it’s the amount of calories you eat it’s the type of calories you eat. Your body doesn’t know what a calorie is it just processes the food that you eat. Stay away from sugar and processed foods and the weight will come off.
Chew your food thoroughly!! You’d be surprised how much more satisfying meals are when yiu take your time. Balance your macros to suit your needs and include every food group in your diet (meat & fish, veges, eggs, dairy, fruit, nuts and seeds) you dont have to eat every group every meal but include these things in your weekly diet and stay busy. That’s what’s helping me at the moment.
You don’t want to lose weight, you want to lose fat. By following stupid diet plans, I was primarily losing muscle mass. Oh god, how dumb I was? You only need correct diet and some kind of training, and the best thing is that you can find both (and much more) on website called *Next Level Diet*.
I think when people say they don’t do well with carbs they can mean that they experience bloating. I know personally I do, if I overdo the carbs. So I go for lower carbs and higher protein and moderate fat.
thank you for tje info. i have some questions because i am starting keto. should i count calories? do i have to go through keto flu? how to get into ketosis faster? keep up the great content doc!
I lost almost 30kg during last 3 years or so,
Yes I passed this, I was fasting all days�� till I came to understand, that whenever I feel the diet will affect my gym performance so I reach to the point I dont want to workout!! I stop and eat well.. thanks for sharing… ��������
Dr. Berry can someone with a trashed gallbladder still do Carnivore? I’ve been trying to talk a family member into giving it a try but he says any time he has tried to eat even slightly fatty meals on keto it just goes right through him in about an hour or so.
I guess this dude believes in the demonic teaching of evolution. Smh. Man has been around for about 6 or 7 thousand years. Read the bible man.
I like the way how you explaine and how you’re looking healthy
My brother and sister are doing this diet. They’ve been doing it for almost a month now and they hate it lol.
Oh yes! I love this vid. You are encouraging a healthy relationship with food. Love lots!������
I am all for chill weight-loss, so I used the website you recommended to count my TDEE and I use my BMR as a ccal reference. This way even without any exercise I still have a 400+ ccal deficit. I am also eating twice a day having late breakfast and early dinner.
I do feel like I am eating a ton tbh, but I am loosing weight so I will probably lower my ccal intake by a 100 in a couple of kgs. My goal is to learn to eat 1600 on a daily basis with no hussle or restrictions (Which is the Sedentary ccal goal for my goal weight.) and it doesnt seem all that much considering i eat 1980 right now. Its less than 400 ccal down.
Actually, I think it was you who planted the idea of using my BMR for steady weight-loss in my head. But I couldnt find the video where it was disscussed after I watched it.
How little calories can I eat and function… exactly how I used to be! Ended up in binge eating and then trying to accommodate the binging with fewer and fewer calories which triggered worse binges. Remembering the REAL GOAL… to be healthy energised and live life to the fullest while maintaining a healthy, balanced relationship with food and movement.
I can’t believe I’m just now seeing this. Thank you so much for this video! It has been so much more clarifying than other videos I’ve seen and really gave me that “a-ha” moment. Thanks again, girl!
Des, love this video! Can you please elaborate more on working out on a reverse? I want to make sure I’m maximizing my time with my reverse. I know you said training style doesn’t have to change but should i incorporate more drop sets? Super sets? Any tips are greatly appreciated:) lysm!!!
I did “the grind” for 14 months. Lost 100lbs. I was exhausted mentally, emotionally, physically. Gained 30 back in 3 months. Been doing it better since. Took a lot of trial and error. Trial and error is what I do. Keep the helpful, forget the unhelpful.
If you don’t want to feel like you’re starving yourself, even when consuming a higher amount of calories, cut processed foods out of your diet as much as possible. Processed foods are just calorie dense vehicles for fat, sugar, and salt; and lack any proper nutrition. Processed sugars cause a resistance to the hormone to signal our brain that we’re full, leptin, so not only are you eating tons of nutrition-less calories, but you’re not going to feel full afterwards, causing you to eat more. Things like sodas have even been shown in studies to make us more hungry.
Whole plant foods should be a go to when you’re hungry. You’ll feel full faster, stay full longer, due to better leptin response, and the fact that the energy in plant foods breaks down at a rate that the body can actually process and utilize, get a lot more nutrients in your body, and never feel like you’re starving yourself.
How about bowel movements? Any suggestions to improve it eating like that?
Thanks for the knowledge, all your videos are C L U T C H Dr. Ken!!! Much Love
Completely get this, I have been losing weight for the last 5 months, started off at 330 pounds and currently down to 260 pounds. Started tracking my calories and aimed for around 1500/1700 when I was supposed to be having 2800. Stuck to it religiously for the first month as it was when I was starting off and I needed to kickstart it. However after that I now allow myself to enjoy myself when the occasion arises, if my friends are going out at the weekend for some pizza or for a curry I will go with them and have a nice big meal and beers and desert and enjoy myself. Then I am back on it the next day, in the past when I would do this I would completely give up and binge for the rest of the weekend but now I am back on it after that one cheat meal, and it has worked. I don’t plan these days but when the occasions come up I do it and I DONT feel guilty about it at all. It’s what has helped me continue to lose weight, without allowing myself to do this I would have never stuck to it, and one small plus is a couple days after a cheat meal (not a cheat day or week) I find my weight starts dropping faster as it kickstarts my metabolism again. Saying that I still enjoy my normal diet days anyway, I still eat bread, low calories crisps, fruits, wraps, nice big home cooked meals with rice or noodles. I can’t be told what foods I can and cannot have that’s why I have personally failed in the past and the no carb things don’t work for me. I found calories counting the best as I can still have most things I like as long as I stick to my calories and it has worked great, I haven’t lost it excessively fast and have made it a slow gradual process changing my lifestyle. But honesty the key is to still allow yourself moments of enjoyment, don’t let it ruin your social life or make you miserable otherwise your never gonna stick to it. I found lifting weights and going to the gym 3/4 times a week really enjoyable as well and has helped me stick to it even more.
Started my weight loss journey 6 months ago. I started at 150 lbs. I’ve only lost 15 lbs in total, but I have lost 5 inches off my waist. Clothing size down from 1XL to M, and sometimes even S. I’ve gained some muscle and I feel healthier, more energetic, and happier than I’ve ever been in my life. I didn’t do any restrictive diets, but practiced eating intuitively. I’ve also been working out consistently; did less cardio, and more body and weight lifting exercises. Consistency really is key. Don’t obsess over that number on the weighing scale because it changes daily. Instead use a measuring tape or take photos to see your progress. Don’t do too many things at once. I started with just working out, to make it a habit. Once it felt automatic, I tried eating better. After that, I decided to improve my sleeping habits. Prioritize how you feel first, instead of how you look.:)
Is reverse dieting just for really lean people? I lost 70 lbs over the past 11 months but things are slowing down. I still have another 80 lbs to my goal. Is it bad to stay in a calorie deficit for so long?
I lost 22 pounds and lots of excess fat. The dietary plan I’m following is powerful. I usually struggled to shed weight, however with the dietary plan was different. The diet is on this web site here TOP2DIET. COM
i have tried and tried and tried to come up with the perfect diet, but the best that i could manage still has too many net carbs (74 g) and too many calories (2,790) in it
Thanks I really needed to here this. Exactly how I been feeling lately.
Hi, I struggle a lot with guilt for missing workouts whether it be because of weather (I do a lot of running) or just not feeling it, or just being busy! I find that the rest of the day I either end up making bad food choices or just not eating enough to “balance” It! Any advice on how to manage this in the moment and steps to take to help in the long term?
Ive been duin IF fr 3 months now n my weight had plateaued at 115 lbs… yesterday along with my regular lunch i ate a full slice of Cheese n a lotta groundnuts n continued the fast as usual… today i am 2 lbs down… 113 lbs. Damn n i thought what sorcery is this? so i came back to this video today to comment. Thank u Dr. Berg ��
I’m no Doctor but I have a feeling the rise in brain illnesses like dementia, is related to people being scared of eating fat for the last fifty years.
Dr Berg, your videos are a wealth of information and I thank you for taking time to do them. I started the Keto diet last week and have not lost a pound as of today. I do feel I have lost some inches. I took the body type test and it seems I am adrenal body type. This has happened since I hit my 50’s. I am trying to figure out if because of the adrenal issue I may encounter problems doing the Keto diet. I know my issue is portion size. I watched your video on what to eat but I did not see you list portion size for fats. Do I go by calories and package serving size, and how my veggies should I have if any. Thank you.
You will not go anywhere paying for supplements and putting all your extra time at the gym. You pay more for them supplements than a smoker spends on cigarettes and it’s an addiction to what other people think that drives you.
People automatically assume they need to stop eating or eat less when losing weight when sometimes you actually need to eat more.
How to you deal with an injury mentally? I broke my wrist a couple of months ago and the cast came off last week but I still can’t train or gym and my range of motion in my wrist is terrible and I’m so sick of seeing my body deteriorate when I can’t do anything about it
Hello! How much weight did you gain when you went from 1300 to 2500 and did you lose it later? Thanks:)
I am going through this right now. I dont know how to explain it.
Your videos are inperational man keep doing that and thanks for all the advice, down to 71 pounds I’m 17 years old so life is really getting better my goal is to lose other 40 pounds to be at 170
Sounds like you need to balance hormones to lost weight not count calories.
Im BARELY recovering from a terrible binge eating restricting cycle which lasted 5 years. I’ve gained 15 pounds and it was terrifying. BUT im no longer binging, and baby stepping it towards a happier, healthier life:) this was a great video! Thank you!!
Dr. Berry I have tried carnivore diet and I don’t have a gallbladder. I am sick to my stomach all the time and vomit quite often. Any idea how to get around this?
Thanks for the great vid! Could you please link info about TDEE; so many different places say I should have different amounts of calories…it’s confusing!
I’m that exact person who he just described. I’ve achieved weightloss 4 times dropping up to 110 pounds on my second journey. When I fall off, I do bad. But when I decide to jump into it, I drop my calories significantly. Currently running on 976 calories. Fasting 23.5 hours a day. Lifting for an hour. HIIT for an hour. Sometimes 30 minutes walking on an incline right after. I’m currently averaging 6 to 8 pounds weekly. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE. But for me, I have to do it this way because if results take long to see, I’ll easily become discouraged to continue to diet. Also, the best feeling in the world is to see that weigh in weekly that reflects my efforts. I’m currently documenting my journey on IG. It’s a two part journey; first: the easy part losing the weight. Second, keeping the weight off for good. So my journey will never end.
6’0″
Start: 298lbs on 1/4/20
Current: 278.2lbs as of 1/25/20
Goal: 210lbs on 4/25/20
Next weigh in 2/1/20
My question is why eating mostly animal fat “essential” is not the primary diet of many large and healthy animals (e.g cow, elephant,gorilla). I believe the Keto diet is just another fad diet that will eventually be proven to have negative health side effects just like the Atkins diet. Humans can not eat animal meat/fat without fire(e.g cooking),processing and/or tools(gun,knife) etc. The only exception is dairy products. A lion can kill and eat another animal without any tools or cooking because meat is his natural diet.
I have been doing keto for the last 7 months, i started going to the gym and omad 2 months ago. Progress has sloooooowed down. Getting down on myself not sure what else to do. Lost 80 in 5 months, the last 10 took 2 months. Have another 110 i would like to loose.
If you’re trying to lose weight, don’t not eat as many calories as you want. Let’s be real here. That’s not how you lost your weight!
Can you explain why you would need to decrease and eventually almost eliminate cardio? Great video btw!:)
wondering if the person who put this video together has a clue what their brain is made of. NAHHHH Been on the diet for many months. I am never really hungry as I dont eat much in the way of processed foods. Remember the first thing about low fat foods they taste like crap. most are either full of sugar and salt. and the ones that are “DIE t” foods will kill you as in DIE… Did you know aspertame is only one molecule change from DDT? yup DIE. All these man made chemicals do a great job of turning off your receptors in your brain so you never know when you are full. Did I mention DIE? Oh and for the idiot at pop science.. the brain is mostly FATS
I have learnt so much form you Dr. Berg and continue too then from all, other sources such as Media, Government guidelines low fat diet (what a complete joke!) You are educating us the truth. Be blessed. and keep going please. Your a Food & health genius. I love your work!:)
Sooo anyone got any advice for me? Here’s my situation: I’m enlisting in the USMC, I’m 5’6 and my maximum weight is 161 lbs, I’m 165 and I’ve lost 55 lbs total but I’ve stopped losing the weight and I’m not sure what to do to get that final push (ps I wanna get down to 155 so I’m not sitting at my maximum in bootcamp)
I also want to add that a lot of people who say, I’ve lost 20 pounds this month are more than likely morbidly obese. I am at the very end of overweight, or even the beginning of obese and the only way I could lose 20 pounds in 1 months would be to starve myself ( I speak from experience). I feel envy when I see people losing such large amounts but I always remind myself that they are starting at a much higher starting weight than me.
I agree soon much with this I went all out 1200 cals for 5 years and it made me FEAR food when I hit my goal weight. Im happy to have lost almost 200 lbs but I WISH I would have done it differently. I suffered with for and myself for years and only now Im starting to get over my fears. ONE day at a time. there is no RUSH
The only thing i dissagree on is losing weight the unhealthy way. Its just not true. Ive lost 50 pounds because i didn’t eat enough and bc of tremendous stress. But i agree that keto is the way to go for your health and losing weight and keeping that of.
I haven’t seen any difference since I started working out 1 mth ago������ I’m about to quit
I am a newbie at your page. A retired nurse, impressed by your nutrition information. Physicians I have worked with have zero information, instead pull out script pad & complicate patient situation. We have to teach the public to treat food as medicine, please.Thank you
This is an oversimplification that’s almost misleading. Where is the scientific data supporting this conclusion that the keto diet is harmful or ineffective? Why no mention of how there are “good” and “bad” fats?
Harvard Public Health gives a more complete picture of dietary fat: https://bit.ly/2ahKI2E. It’s not as simple as just high fat = bad.
Aha!!! Im very obese and I eat 1,500 calories a day and I work alot of hard work. Sometimes I eat less because I forget to eat but my body doesnt lose weight as fast as I want it too. It really bugs me
Excellent. You covered most of the bases in a short amount of time. This is LIFE-SAVING information. Living proof right here(ME)
Thanks for your questions team, what will it be next week? Leave you questions below ����
Went from eating 1800 cals at 205lbs and now I eat 2800 at 178lbs but I’m also pretty active
Dr Berg, You should not even mention 50 grams of carbs! It’s too much! You are giving people permission to CHEAT by doing so. If you tell people 50 grams, they’ll consume 100! You should have said 20 grams, PREFERABLY ZERO! But I get it…..you want to keep your viewers, and the way you do that is by being non-restrictive. The problem is, non-restrictive diets don’t work, especially when it comes to Keto.. You will keep from loosing subscribers by being less restrictive, but they will remain FAT and see very little progress.
The best thing for me when I got my plateau was upping my calories for a week and then I cut back down. This tricked my body into thinking it wasn’t “starving” anymore and jump-started my metabolism again to start dropping weight. Currently down 75lbs in 8 months.
I saw this at a time when I really needed it! My 1600 goal works a lot of days but lately, I have been eating between 1700-1900, which makes sense because I’ve been exercising quite a bit more than before… But I’ve been feeling really guilty on any day I eat over 1700 calories… I have been trying to tell myself that it’s okay but it’s still very hard.
Since it’s been shown that eating a low fat and high carb diet can reverse heart disease, how do you reconcile a higher fat diet for reversing heart disease?
Can reverse dieting help me when I’m working out outside with resistance bands?? Or does it just work for gym (in terms of gaining muscle and building physique)
John is making a great point.
The only people who noticed my slow weight loss were very close friends and family members who only saw me at most once s year. That was fine with me. I lost about 1 pound a month for 4 years, and then leveled off at my goal weight and have stayed there since.
My major problem with this diet and why I keep falling off it, is that i get reaallly sick of eating so much fat, to the point where it makes me nauseous at the thought of it. Why is this??
Finally, I have found a diet program that is successful for me. My partner and i only wish that I had come across this diet plan a long time ago. I know I would of lost a minimum of 7 more lbs. Google “sowo hope site” for more information.
Im ready to adopt this way of eating. I am more than a hundred pounds overweight. Looking forward to getting positive results. Thank you, Doctor Berry for your down to earth advice.
What will happen, if i increase my calories but do cardio regualary?
By increasing the callorie which one out of Protein carb or fat need to be increeased. Say if I am increasing my kcal by 100 per week
Listen people who are trying to build muscle and mass and just be lean u guys have to eat cause ur body needs energy after u worked out or did some cardio. Your most likely to be tired cause u haven’t ate so just eat about 1000-2000 calories a day with health food (chicken broccoli) is a good way to start. But listen if u just want to be skinny and look good in clothes u want stop eating I know it’s hard when u begin but the benefit is satisfying and u get more confidence in your self. But this is just me saying this.(don’t do this if like eating food or wanna be your weight) by the way I’m not a fitness instructor or a model or someone that workouts. I’m just a skinny Asian
Thank you for this video! I was at 800 calories and running myself into the ground with exercise. Repetitive strength training, so hard later on in the week I couldn’t complete workouts and 8-10 mile runs on the weekend, with 1-2 hours of cardio per day 6 days per week, and 2 HITT session sprints. I was like, why am I not losing more weight?! I went from 204lbs-188lbs in 1.5 months, then stalled at 200lbs. I was doing keto as well, and slowly got over my fear of carbs and eating to be healthy and lose weight. In 1 week already seeing more strength in the gym and scale is starting to move again. This week when I added carbs back I went from 193.8lbs to today, 189.6lbs and feel great! At 1800-2000 calories, doing a strength training routine of upper and lower body with Hitt cardio and steady state incline walking for 1 hr-2hr per day because I enjoy walking ��
I used to do MASSIVE amounts of cardio and eat very little, messed up my immune system and started eating intelligently and lost a cool 56 pounds.
Dr. Berry,
I just watched a video of Charlotte Gerson showing slides of blood cells 6 hrs after eating high fat diet and the red blood cells were all clumped together. Can you comment on that?
Hi guys,
I love your channel and really appreciate the advice you give so freely in your videos. I’m 25 and am a pretty tall guy (6’3″) and I’ve had a relatively fast metabolism all my life which, coupled with the sports that I played, has allowed me to eat and drink whatever I wanted up until now without having to worry too much about putting on weight. During the past summer, I didn’t work out much and drank a fair amount of IPAs, which gave me a little bit of a belly. I’ve been working out for the past 8 weeks or so, and while my legs have become more muscular and lean (i run around 4 miles 3 times a week [except for the past couple of weeks during which I’ve had an injured toe and instead I’ve done work on the bike instead] as well as doing half an hour of work on the bike the other two days, while doing arms/back/chest 3 days a week and legs 2 days a week, and a 5-7 minute ab workout 5 days a week as well) I can’t seem to shed my belly fat. I make all of my own food from scratch, except maybe once a week when I go out for dinner, and I’ve been tracking calories trying to make sure that I hit my protein goal every day while staying relatively low on my fats, and only a little higher on my carbs. Is this just a matter of time, or is there something else I could be doing/i might be doing too much of?
Cheers guys!
Giulian
It’s really hard to lose weight when you only burn about 1600 calories a day. To lose weight I have to eat about 1200 calories, and sticking to that is really hard. I mean, I guess I need to exercise to up my metabolism?
Hi there! I was wondering if you have NASH, is keto ok? My doctor says not to lose more then 2 lbs a week. Will I lose weight to fast on a keto diet. Thanks for your help.
I just decided to reverse diet last week! This video came exactly at the right time really needed this to give me a push! I’ve been dieting for over a year now and it’s those last 10 pounds just finished a cut and I just need this right now to get my eating back to normal again great video!
Would you say this logic applies to females (eat a bit at surplus to build more muscle) or is it a bit different?
Very interesting. I was guilty of cutting calories for a long time and only started to look into training five years ago. I feel like it took me that long to get back to a normal amount of calories I could eat without gaining weight, but it was so worth it.
done my first press up today after joining the gym again last week. i could only do one but i seen progress! i was proud of myself! keep up the good work! also the link in the description is wrong for the podcast:’)
My advice for others would be to focus on eating healthy whole foods, because of the calorie density. You can eat SO MUCH MORE of the good stuff! throw out the junk..
I have not felt guilty about eating bacon since hearing you say it’s not only OK… It’s good for you. (yes, I do cook it a bit more well done and I blot the extra grease with a paper towel) Today, I notice OK KERA (Our local PBS Station) has a membership drive with Dr. Mark Hyman as guest. He had a lit of great info and I am happy to say that…. I knew that! I heard it from Dr Berg first! That’s for educating us. For the first time… I am losing weight (30 lbs in past 3 months)
I think for me, “diet” has become a misleading word. There are so many diets that are just straight up miserable and they imply it is temporary. A goal is hit and then you stop. But I like the term “lifestyle” more. Because for a lifestyle, a goal isn’t temporary. It is only the beginning. It takes time for the body to adjust to lower calories. And it takes time for the brain to adjust to lower levels of dopamine from food and fullness. The end goal shouldn’t be a number, but a state of mind and existance that is comfortable and generally positive mentally and physically.
Dear Lean Machines. Can you please do a video or give advice about how to lose weight specifically if you have insulin resistance and PCOS (Polly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome) there are so many different diet recommendations out there from ketogenic, low GI to only eating 1200 calories a day. This has left me very confused and discouraged as to what diet will work best. I am 23 years old and very overweight BMI of 37. I did lose a lot of weight (around 30 KG) around 2 years ago and I have kept it off, I just cant seem to lose any more since being diagnosed with PCOS. I do go to the gym 3 to 4 times per week and I live a active lifestyle, its the diet that I really struggle with. I love your videos and would really appreciate any advice even if it is just on insulin resistance. Thank you for your awesome channel.
I will be starting Keto way of eating on 1/6/20 however I am confused about the high fat recommendations. If you eat high fat won’t your body use that dietary fat for fuel? How or when does it use the stored body fat if it uses what you eat first? Would love to hear from you Dr. Berry!
2:34 is when the like main question is answered but I think watching the whole video is good too
This was very helpful because it did work for me. As soon as i started to add back in the calories (mostly wholefood) my body started to respond after a period of plateau.
These guys are snake oil salesmen. I’ll explain. They mean well but there the problem.
From the thumbnail I thought John had cut all his hair off! ��❤️
You say you reverse dieted for 16.5 months clearly you upped cals according to the lean mass you were putting on I just finished my first show and I’m trying to reverse diet you have some good info my cals were at 2100 so from what I see I’m sure you just upped every so often when you stalled right so this sorta makes it more of a clean bulk more than anything
How long does it take to lose the weight/fat again? I’ve been in this situation for about 3-4 years now and obviously I would love to be eating a ‘normal’ amount of calories again but the weight gain just freaks me out and I always end up just sticking to my undereating and what I think of as a safe amount to have even though I know it isn’t enough, what happens if you just never increase your calories? Will you stay the same weight still or gain anyway or just stay the same forever? Thanks for this vid:) xx
Really informative video as always lads. I laugh how I used to restrict myself to 1000 calories and wondered why I couldn’t lift weights without feeling super tired lol.
I have a quick question too:
I have an ongoing problem when I run. The whole of my tibia, especially the lower area is super sore, painful, and i assume it gets bruised from when I run. I only run 3 miles each time and have many times taken weeks off because of the pain, yet when I return to try and run again the pain instantly comes back. I have changed my old gym trainers to now run in brand new trainers yet there is still no difference. Is this something I should go to a doctor about or do you have any ideas why this is an ongoing problem.
What should we do when our maintenance calories are lower than your BMR??
Is Custokebon Secrets useful to lost crazy amounts of weight? We’ve read many good stuff about Custokebon Secrets (look on google search engine).
Hi guy please can you help my channel grow just got the subscribe button and comment 8 on one of my videos and I’ll sub back to you (it’s simple if you want subs)
Plant based fats like avocado and nuts are healthy in moderation. Animal fats are never healthy and in fact are responsible for most chronic diseases and autoimmune diseases.
no more that 50 grams whaaaaa? I can’t move when I go that low
Coconut oil industry really knows how to advertise their product. Who paid you? The Crisco company?
It’s for lean people, right? But the question is how much fat to consume, if we already have huge amounts of fat stuck right under our skins? Body can get the calories, right?
Can you make a video and peanut butter and the benefits of eating it
Hi, why should you decrease cardio doing reverse dieting? Thanks ��
Right now I’m losing 0.5 kgs/week with eating 1400 kcals. Keep in mind that I’m short and also only slightly overweight. Sometimes I go over a bit, esp in the weekends, but it seems sustainable to me
I lost about 10Kg (about 22 punds) every month, 7 months straight. I could have continued like forever doing that. Slowing things down at the moment, as not to burn muscle. I only did cardio the last couple of months, but ate 1500-2000 calories a day for quite some time. I am 45. I’ve basically only walked my dog, but walked him a lot. I really do not get this fuss about this calorie deficit and this need to eat a lot, if you want to get this over with.
I eat 2500-3000 calories a day (recovered anorexic) and walk 45 mins, do 10min of pilates a day and am losing weight… so if THAT tells you anything ����♀️ Our bodies are NOT meant to work on less than 2300 calories a day. The 2000cal guidelines are a loose self-reported average, with no actual scientific reasoning. The body will use every single calorie we give it to carry out even the smallest functions, like restoring tooth enamel or growing your hair. The reason we’re obese is in no way because of junk food either it’s due to a lack of MOVEMENT (not exercise) and an increase in dieting/both mental and physical restriction. The brain and the body are directly connected. If you’re reading this, please look into “The Fuck It Diet” by Caroline Dooner or any of Tabitha Farrar’s work. LIFE-CHANGING!
I wish more people would watch this. Learning from you Dr was the best decision ever
Lots of misinformation here! Obviously “Popular” does not mean “Accurate”.
Fortunately I never listened to the part about not eating animal fat lol that’s my favourite part!
Im taking pure butter with my coffee since butter is a great source of fat and not margarine that wil clog the arteries.
The particular “Kοnοnοz yyd” (Google it) eating plan has given me factors to assume that I will rapidly eliminate my ugly belly fat. I am a big lady and actually no exercising I have burned TWENTY-FIVE pounds. I can now sleep longer hours and also feel good when I get up. This has furnished me a raise of energy and I feel that I am weight loss also..
I take a table spoon of olive oil, coconut oil and 1/2 an avocado a day. Is this too much fat?
Darn, I wanted to drink melted butter. (Just kidding) Thank you for your lectures!
hello dr.berg plz do reply my question…..why we gain back with in 2-3 days of leaving exercise or diet…why it is not stable
Dr Berg, if ‘Fat’ is the end product of carbohydrate metabolism which naturally occurs in the human body, why is it that we still need to comsume fat? can’t we get all the ‘fats’ that we need by just consuming adequate amounts of carbohydrates?
Wait, what clogs arteries then? Because people sure have clogged arteries and they die from it.
Tell me my priorities are off, or that I should be different because I’m a little fat.
Even if I die early I’ll have lived more. I have a house in Cambodia, one in Florida, and I use them both. My mom and dad are currently in Cambodia they only retired because of me. They have been there for 2 years. And I’m glad I could provide it to them. And would not have been able to if I spent my life in the gym. Spending my money on supplements.
I’m on the starch solution and I eat 2 small potatoes and a cup of any veggie I want,with 2 servings of fruit in between. By dinner I am NOT hungry at all. So maybe I get in 1000 calories,then I work out and burn 300-450 calories. This has been on going forever! Yes I’ve lost 40 pounds since nov1st 2019 and continue to lose but am I suppose to eat when I am not hungry???
basically no information in this video. just don’t eat little calories… yeah that helps a lot
I know that I should eat more but when I do I have so much Energy and that feels so weirdly wrong as I was eating for 2 years very little to lose weight. Having energy feels like I am doing something wrong:/
I’m trying to listen but gurl your delts are distracting me������������

What are some ways to lost a ton of fat? I read loads of good opinions on the internet about how Custokebon Secrets can help you lost a lot of fat. Has anyone tried using this popular lose weight methods?
You channel is improving my knowledge and life so much thank you. I’m only 15 pounds down but these videos help sooo much
So I have a question… I’ve been eating 1,600-1,800 calories for the past year except for a brief two month period near the holidays where I struggled with binging and stress, resulting in gaining 20 pounds. Since January, I’ve been back on track, diet and workout wise (typically 5 strength/HIIT workouts a week, martial arts classes, etc.). I track my macros (50/30/20) and calories. However, I’ve lost minimal weight/size. By the numbers, I should’ve lost over 12 pounds by now. What should I do?
Hi. I was anorexic before and been in recovery for 1 year, but nowadays i ate 400cal/day without realizing it because i eat only healthy food for my skin. I’m planning to do reverse dieting, so should i increase 10-20 cal a day it means i’ll eat 420cal/day? Or just take it to 1200 cal?
I increased my fat consumption: cheese, milk etc… my cholesterol went waaaaay up in the space of 3 months, especially LDL!!
I wonder if you could do more workout videos. On your channel there is a tabata workout in garden, i liked it a lot. I mean workout videos that i could do with us, at home/park without specific equipment 😉
Dr Berg, I go on the LCHF diet every now and then but I’m finding it super hard to maintain with time. My body is screaming for carbs at some stages. It works perfect with me when I am under 20 grams of carbs per day, my weight drops and everything but I am not being able to sustain that for a long period of time.
Any suggestions?
I understand that reverse dieting is obviously relevant for bodybuilders at the end of a prep context, but is reverse dieting relevant for a random person after a weightloss? the person has been cuting calories for several weeks and train hard in order to maintain muscle mass, so am i wrong thinking the metabolism will just follow when increasing calorie intake? since the body is in demand for more calories ( to perform all the task we have to do, to get back to balance ( since cuting calories create an imbalance) ) or am i missing something?
thank you for your attention
That’s what I think when a gym rat gives me a dirty look. No your the selfish one. I got fat driving someone else’s big rig, so I could buy my own, then I bought another,and another,and another, and then the oilfield opened up and I got rich. That’s called sacrifice dumb dumb.
If you increase calories each week and stop doing cardio, wouldn’t you just gain fat? Especially if you’re not lifting? Or are you supposed to be lifting on a reverse diet?
On the vid u did about y calorie number dosnt count u said difrent things them in this vid.for example here u say fats have louda of vitamens and is importamt and has more them vegis and in the other vid u said that fats font have enoghe so eat more vegis
“Necessary” is a dogmatic statement. A big stretch indeed. Lots of people lose weight with low fat, high carbs or with a calorie deficit.. There’s MULTIPLE way of losing weight. Ketosis being very efficient, it’s still just ONE of the multiple way of losing fat
I train with resistance training and HIIT frequently throughout the week (5 days). The carbs give me energy and I thrive off the glucose. 20-50 grams seems viciously low for someone like me. Will the uptake of fat really compensate when I do heavier lifting and higher intensity? There seems to be such a discord between what trainers say (who have scientifically researched as well) and this advice of lower carb/higher fat. Is it possible to meet somewhere in the middle?
What is your take on the fasting mimicking diet and the hacks that are out there on the internet. Dr. Valter Longo’s work?
Right now, I “try” to eat maintenance but I feel my body hungry for more food. Sometimes I even feel that at 3000 cals. Maybe my body is reacting to the shock of strength training. I’m scared to become fat again from all this food ��
ive been on keto for 3 months ive lost 25 lbs another 30 to go feel great looking slimmer, thanks Dr Berry for all your knowlegde ive been following you for only a month before i started Keto lifestyle watched easily 50 to 80 or more videos of yours to know almost all there is to know You are so informative, Keto Strong
I m 14 year old boy an want to increase height.Can u guys upload a video of height increasing exercises and proper diet
after losing over 330+ lbs I found that dropping my calories in the beginning wasn’t all that great for me. I had very low energy and after the gym I literally found it hard to do anything at all which I think slowed my progress. When I decided to do moderate cardio and try out bodybuilding and increased my calories I then noticed the weight dropping off faster than before. In all honesty as John says it’s literally a marathon and not a sprint. Focus on making it a daily routine instead of a chore and you will reap the rewards on your journey!
Down 18lbs since December. I feel shit because I’m not losing what I want
If I’m on the keto diet and I fry my meat in coconut or olive oil, do I need to add a fat source to my meal?
thanks dr berg, what fat should we eat? can you please do a video on how to cure anxiety and gastritis
Man I can relate. In high school I lost about 30-40 pounds extremely unhealthily, calculating it now I was probably eating 1200 a day maximum, and walking/jogging 3 miles every day. I got so much validation from everyone, and then when I broke and couldn’t do it anymore, I have genuinely felt more and more out of control with food as time goes on and with every dieting attempt. I’m now 240 pounds and, at 5ft5, I need to do something, but I always sabotage myself. I hope I sort my shit out one day:(
Excellent instruction doc. I wonder what I did wrong when I went Keto four years ago. Lost the weight, but hair started falling out more and never returned. I will also mention that I was under a great deal of stress then. Thyroid panel revealed hypothyroid (high RT3, lowT3). So I’m so confused how to eat for my body.��
I keep hearing that lard is good fat, but the lard I find in the grocery store has hydrogenated lard in it. Would this be a trans fat? is it unhealthy?
So Dr. McDougall and all the plant based doctors are wrong? Funny, eating like you say made me gain weight, raised my cholesterol and blood pressure! Now on the Startch Solution Diet and lost 35 lbs., off drugs and lowered blood pressure! There are enough fats in a plant based diet to sustain us and I feel way better now NOT eating coconut oil, butter, dead animals and dairy. Please clarify why so many cardiologists are saying plant based is the only solution to heart disease, cancer and diabetes?
My TDEE is 2,045, and I feel like 1,500 isn’t enough food. Lol. I eat maybe an average of 1,800 a day: sometimes hundreds less: sometimes hundreds more.
How effective is Custokebon Secrets? I’ve noticed several awesome things about this popular fat burn diet plan.
I know being obese is bad and I’m not, I’m a little over weight. Nothing big. And I’ve had people tell me about it, usually a young kid still in school that mutters something under there breath.
I was thin when I began to eat carnivore (I wanted to see if it would help my eczema), and I immediately noticed that I am much fuller after eating a nice steak with some fat on it than I ever was eating my salads and grains and pasta. My body knows that meat is satisfying, no scientific studies needed.
What are your thoughts in raw cacao nibs? is this
fat ok and if so how many grams?
I’m trying to enter Ketosis. I can already tell it’s working because my belly went down a bit.
Tried to watch this video but couldn’t. All I see is some dumb bitch trying to be black with her white ass dance moves.
I learned that eating simple ingredient food that has more volume but less calories will help you lose weight.
For instance: (Not reccomended) takeout cheeseburger and French fries =800-1000 calories. Not that big, wont keep you full long, full of bad fats and salt.
Recommended: stir fry chicken breast, 1 cup of cooked jasmine rice, black beans, green veggies pan fried with favorite seasonings = 600-800 calories. Very filling, high in nutrients, helps you recover faster in the gym, fiber so you dont bloat, way lower in bad fats and sodium.
Or snacks: (not recommended) Donut350 calories, packed with bad fats and sugar, can eat in 3 bites, addictive and not filling.
(Recommended) Peanuts and dark chocolate: 350 calories, lower in sugar, higher in good fats, good clean quick energy without spiking insulin and causing low energy, no sugar crash, can eat in pieces so you can enjoy it longer.
Your body is a machine that needs clean fuel. Processed foods are an epidemic in our world today. It’s killing us slowly.
This is sooo true! Everyone who is wanting to lose weight should watch this video.
So I’m 17, 142 pounds, and 5’6. I’ve been struggling with my weight for years and have been eating around 800-1,200 calories (fasted like crazy too) for at least 2 years. When I first started, I worked out everyday of the week and dropped weight. Then I regained it all and have just been hanging out at this weight. I developed a really unhealthy relationship with food and myself and began to fear calories. If I don’t track what I eat, I always feel like I’ll end up way overshooting. Recently, I’ve been trying to up my calories to 1,500 and eating whole, healthy foods because I just want to feel good again and stop fearing food. I still work out 40 minutes (cardio mostly because I don’t have a gym to go to) 5 days a week. By doing all this, will I gain weight? I’m so scared I’ll see the numbers on the scale rise and I’ll look fatter.
I thought that the milan sheath of nerves and brain were mostly cholesterol. I’m guessing it is both?

I started eating 1200 and lost a lot of weight. Then I got obsessed with calorie counting. I got down very low and had no idea people were worried about me until I literally couldn’t keep “dieting” anymore
(I was eating an insane low number of calories per day including gam and coffee calories) and needed to recover. Now I am on Minnie Maud and am recovering. My hunger cues are all over the place and I have gained all my weight back.
But I’m seeing the importance of being healthy at your body’s happy weight rather than living your life by numbers and going hungry everyday. I’m only 3 weeks into an All-In recovery (I was in quasi for a while now). Today was an insane binge day, yesterday as well, but I must accept my body doesn’t trust me anymore and WANTS it because I am slowly recalling times when I would eat these foods and eat a normal amount and “feel full” whereas now it takes 3x-6x the amount.
I’m looking forward to the day where I can eat breakfast, get up, feel full, and go about my day and not be screaming starving for more.
Hi Dr. Berg, can you be specific about which kind of fat we need to consume? Thank you.
Hello doctor, do you think it’s a good idea to do a Green juice cleanse After doing the keto for a year?
Ok help me here I’m 5ft at 120lbs and I want to lose 5 or 10lbs more. Now how many calories should I eat because I feel like I should be eating 1200 calories a day to lose the weight but I do still feel like I’m always hungry. I’ve been at the same weight for about 2 months.
This is definitely me. And I always end up stuck. I feel like no matter what I do I just don’t lose weight and it sucks.
For the last 10 months I’ve had a chronic wound healing so unable to use the gym but before that I was in the gym 3 times a week and really doing a mix of weights and cardio. I don’t eat badly I never have done, I don’t drink any calories and I don’t over eat. I followed a calculator and ate like 1600 or so that it recommended for me plus a lot of work outs… And I lost a grand total of half a stone in around 7 months. I mean… I am like the slowest ever for fat loss and I hate it.
I read that some people are more carb intolerant so maybe that’s an issue. I’m currently trying intermittent fasting until I can get back in the gym.
All these people losing pounds and pounds in a matter of weeks. God it hits hard.:(
I have restricted in the last few months and lost a lot of weight and i have lost my period and i were sooo tired all the time. I ate 1500 calories but then when i started increasing my calories and ate about 2000 and 2100, my energy levels increased and i did lose some more fat even tho i increased my calories. I eat that much now and i think i am reverse dieting. None of my friends eat as much as me lol.
Need some example of fat which we can consume…
eg: Olive oil and how much
And people on all sorts of unnatural chemicals to apear to be something he’s not.. seems to be a big problem.
hello dr. berg,
I have a couple of questions…
1. based on my own studies on health, our brains needs glucose, and glucose comes from carbohydrates. On a ketogenic diet, is the carb intake of 20 grams to 50 grams an adequate amount for our brain to get the proper amount of glucose?
2. can you do a video on why coconut oil is good for us? I tried finding medical journals and/or case studies explaining the benefits of coconut oil. The thing that throws me off is that coconut oil is extremely high in saturated fats.
3. I also found it interesting that you said the fat studies, that is the foundation of knowledge to our health, was not a reliable study. Can you do a video explaining that as well?
Thank you. Your videos are changing my whole mind set on healthy eating. Thank you.
“I recommend this guide:
yoro.best/ketodiet/X4L
So grateful it exists in 2020.”
Hi doctor can u make a video of example of two meals one should eat during intermittent fasting. This would be so helpful to me I’m trying to loose the 15 lbs I gained. And I need a good example of what the two meals would consist of. I am 5’1 128lbs and I’d like to get back down to a healthy 110lbs and it’s been very difficult for me but your videos are helping me a lot!! Thank you!!!
I have a very unhealthy relationship with the scale therefore I’ve stopped using it. Instead I use measurements. It’s incredible what not worrying about the number on the scale is and focusing on actual inches falling off����
Actually at the 00:20 it should be “it can convert to sugar” not to insulin. I’m not a lapsus hunter but rather a careful listener 😉
I know you probably won’t care, but you’re really cute and attractive ��
Hi there, have you considered this diet plan called the Custokebon Secrets? My mate says it helps people lost crazy amounts of weight. Is that possible? I also noticed many great review relating to this diet plan. Thoughts?
OKAY Dr. Ken (and others) I know you say not to count calories BUT for someone on the go and needing to meal prep on keto/carnivore… HOW can we know how much to prep… ALSO if on a budget… how can we know how much we need to buy to budget… just trying to be successful with this fat loss… HELP PLEASE thanks!
Hi �� doctor ��⚕️ berg potassium pat here in �� London England �������������� what really causes people serious health problems goes by the name salt sold in stores and supplements real sea salt I get from Israel and pink Himalayan salt from Pakistan both contain minerals,imagine rubbing a small piece of glass continuous on your arm,this would cause an injury,this is what store bought salt does to your blood vessels causing inflammation,then calcium with cholesterol join together to patch up the damage done by the silicate in the salt,just like a �� house builder plasters a hole in a wall,the problem is the they keep plastering till there is no space left for the blood to flow through,heart attack or stroke,enevable ��⚕️ berg as always your the best,I watch all your videos,they are truly areal educational it’s the 13-5-2018,here in London.have a nice �� day as the Americans say.
Dr. Ken Berry
Dr. Shawn Baker
Dr. Paul Saladino are the only three doctors who have figured it out.
It took me 4 years to find these 3 doctors. Every time I Google I found vegetables and fruits are good. I kept eating vegetables and fruits and felt miserable.
Low carb/carnivore diet is a life saver.
It took me many years to lose 80 lbs but I no longer put the weight on. Five or six days of the week I eat as healthy as possible, then the other one or two days I will eat something I crave. I went really steady on my weight loss but have kept it off.
is it safe to eat 8 whole eggs a day? dr. answer me please..
Any one tested out the Custokebon Secrets (just google it)? We’ve heard numerous awesome things about this popular weight loss diet plan.
Can you please do a breakdown of a week what you would eat day by day
i feel bad for my friend she says she is fat but she is anorexic������
guys healthy fats, are olive oil, coconut oil, fish oil to name a few. Any others that you guys like? Which does Berg recommend?
In 58kg (175cm) female. I eat 600 calories a day but i cant seem to lose fat. I run 4.5 km/day and do 30-40 minutes of weight training (about 10lb dumbbells) at home bc gyms are closed. My Apple Watch says i burn 2100-2250 cals/ day. I want to be more toned for the summer but I don know ow much lower my calories can go. Can i still reverse diet without gaining weight? Can i lose fat still?
Some people are not made to be fitness coaches,….really good coaches don’t keep spewing the same method over and over. What do they say is the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over expecting a different results. 1 method to weight loss is not the answer or good coaching,….What makes a good health coach is knowing that all diets work and they are able to help you find which one works for you.
Hello Dr. Berg. I have heard that coconot oil and butter are also good for cooking but what oils do you recommend for salad dressings or for making home made mayonnaise? Greetings from Costa Rica.
One thing I kept in mind as I’ve lost 92 pounds over the past year, is that a year only feels like a long time when you are going through it. Think back to how many times you get to January and think ‘wow that year flew by.’ Working slowly for a year will feel like you’re not making any progress until it’s been a year and you think ‘wow that flew by, and I’ve lost so much weight!’ the fact that one month you only lost 1.8 pounds doesn’t really matter anymore…
I get fat scraps from my butcher and bake it and eat it. Is this considered good fat?
I’m stuck at 193 lbs. calories are averaging 1250 a day. I’ve been in 1200 daily deficit a day for a long time. Weight isn’t going down. I walk 2-4 miles so active. I cook at home mostly. A lot of protein. Trying to lose 8-10 to get to 184-185.. I dunno
What do we do if we increased too fast and put on fat too fast?
Code Red is better.
or so I’ve been told.
I need to lose weight, but I’m not willing to give up carbs. I’ll probably never diet… just lay off the snacks and sugar, and drink a lot of water every day and get a healthy sleep schedule.
I fasted four days and lost ten pounds. Going to feast tomorrow. Then fast again hopefully for four to seven days.
I eat 1800-2000 calories, I can eat up to 2200 ish but I feel very comfortable with these numbers. What helped me the most is comparing products, I drink my coffee with milk and I switched to soy milk which has way less calories. Also using cauliflower rice instead of normal rice, all these things has made it easier to eat more and still reach my daily calorie intake. I don’t walk around feeling hungry, and I see the weight dropping a little at the time.
John this happened to me. kept cutting and cutting and cutting and then suffered an injury where I couldn’t workout and then the binge started. Thank you for sharing!
Diet has been the hardest for me to grasp. After 5 years lifting I feel I never really got nutrition down. I made progress for sure: My PRs were squat 205lb, OHP 95lb, bench press 145lb, deadlfit won’t even mention lol but I kinda let diet fall by the wayside. I was 5’4″ b/n 135-138lbs but over time my strength stalled and I looked fluffy. I was definitely not eating enough protein also had a high stress job. SoI’ve been trying to cut properly during quarantine now that I’m home and can plan better. Trying to learn nutrition and get lean enough, slowly, to then reverse diet and eventually lean bulk.
ObesetoBeast the way I see it I fasted three times now 121 day fast 114 day and I’m on another 14-day fast at the moment 10 Days Inn… the reason I fast is because it is the way I get to the weight I want to be and then use a good diet to sustain that weight… it’s what working for me and I’m 120 lbs down now so
If that pissed you off it’s because it’s true. It’s called denial.
Do you measure net carbs vs total carbs for the 20g or less?
Down 15 pounds in 8 days, I’m at about 1,000 calories today.
I made 32,000 dollars last month being a little over weight. And you don’t make enough to be my boss, and if I spent my time at the gym I never would of made that. And America is full of broke people that just want to look good and not work. And those same people say I have a problem. It doesn’t make any sense.
You need calories to fuel your workouts, especially if you have an high intensity regiment. Cutting back on your calorie intake would leave you hungry, miserable and it will negatively affect your performance during exercise.
Dr. Berry: Have you done (and if not will you do) a video about the truth vs. myth of losing fat releasing toxins into our bodies? If it is true, what could be some of the symptoms (ie: nausea, joint pain, bad breath, flu-like achy, or even more serious such as extra work for the liver/kidneys, etc.) I see other articles and videos and there doesn’t seem to be much research into this OR no one takes the time to research the research. Thank you. Miz Gail.
Hi. If we are eating large quantities of fat, will this be used in priority over body fat?
thank you very much for these videos they help keep me motivated even when I occasionally give into temptation
This video is filled with misinformation. For example, you said: “Muscle burns calories at rest; fat doesn’t.” That is simply not true. Muscle burns more calories than fat, but fat still requires energy to be maintained. Please research your content more carefully, because misinformation puts people at risk.
Scientists where are your studies, proof, documents.
Don’t take that offensive, only speaks to the individual.
Be happy.

Holy shit I wanna go to taco bell. Craving carbs is like craving drugs, but I think I’ll cook me some eggs. Gotta fight the urge
I actually like cardio and want it to have a place in my training plan. Is it as simple as increasing my calories even more to counteract the expenditure from cardio? Or do I absolutely have to minimize cardio in order to get the results I want with a bulk/reverse diet?
tattoos in general are lame, but finger tattoos just stupid. stop dieting and go fix your relationship with your parents.
Wow!! Your amazing!! I love your positivity! Thanks for sharing!!
Seeing progress fast is mentally challenging. I’ve lost 93 pounds in 9 months. I’m at 2470 calories a day and feel great.
The progress I’m told is amazing. I see myself as the old guy in a lot of ways. There is a disconnect between my mental image of myself and my actual physical transformation.
So loosing weight rapidly causes other problems. Doing it slower might be good for mental health.
this may be a dumb question, but I already have extremely high cholesterol -will this diet affect Cholestrol?
Wow. Basically that doctor committed genocide by lying in his study. It’s so much more effective means of doing genocide than having armies forcing people into concentration camps. If your goal is to kill free murica’ what better way to do it?
Thank you for taking the time to get us to understand how the body works, what it needs, and why. What a great teacher you are!
I went to the grocery store and asked for the fat scraps from all the trimming of steaks and pork from the butcher. I have been eating about 6 pieces a day after I cook them for an hour in the oven. It is really crispy and tastes pretty good. Does this sound like the right thing to do?
Dr. Berry I am still not in ketosis. It’s been a month and I am getting kinda disappointed ��
I posted a comment down below a month ago.
Thank you
Everything in moderation is my life motto. Dont go for the extremes.
In the summer before senior year of high school I was put on birth control and antidepressants due to physical/mental health issues. I was so terrified of gaining weight that I went absolutely insane with my control of food and exercise. I made it a game of eating 600 calories and running up to five miles a day. I lost 35 lbs in three months and when I got back to school teachers and friends kept saying how “healthy” and “beautiful” and “happy” I looked. My doctor was the only one who expressed concern at my weight loss and advised me to stop what I was doing and lose weight at a more healthy pace. Three years after graduation I’m back where I was before I lost weight and even though I’m healthy I still avoid visiting old teachers or seeing old friends out of fear that they’ll just be thinking of how I gained the weight back even if I’m healthier than I was then.
And one time a kid said in line at Walmart in a snippet way, your the problem with our social economic system. I know what she meant. She means that I’ll end up on ssi and be a drain on our tax system.
My tdee is like 1500-1600 kcal though, how do I lose weight with that. Only Need to lose about 20 lb but have an injured knee so I’m very sedentary, take about three 30-min walks a week, the rest I just sit at home ��
Is fresh coconut meat ok on keto? I am IF 23/1 and not hungry most of the time. If I think I’m not getting enough fat till my next meal,I’ll have a 2×2 inch piece of fresh coconut. I’m thinking “healthy fat”. Am I wrong?
I struggled with too many kilograms for a long time. Ketogenic diet solved the problem within weeks. Don’t need science to know it works
How much of fat should be in the body!? Bcoz i went in the lsn nutrients to check my weight how much muscles do i have how much fat and it show i have 36 and he said should be only 22
I’d been stalled for over a week on same weight. I felt like eating an avocado so I ate one I also drank some cocoa blended with butter and some coconut milk and the next day I’d dropped 1.3kg. Was very happy
This happens because this saying it’s all about calories in vs calories out gets overused and overemphasized.
yes!! i think the rapid weight loss people seek is based on really intense dieting, which can be useful for short term results, but like you said it’s not sustainable!! long term, more steady & slow weight loss is usually based on something deeper than diet tricks, which is an entire lifestyle change. to shift your attitude towards food and exercise all together is no small feat, but it can happen in the long run!!
Just one question, How would you distribute macros in this type of diet? Can it be 40% protein, 35% carbs and 25% fat? or it would be advisable 2gr proteins per kilo… but it is a totally different number from the previous one (prot: 40%) What do you recommend?
It’s crazy to me that you are starting a prep now considering how lean you are already!!! You don’t have too far to go!
She is beautiful, i am just looking at her all this time ��
i’m 17 lost 3.5kg in 20 days with 1200 calories diet WITHOUT exercising (used to be 68.2 kg and 168cm ) so i’m 64.7 kg now… i didn’t lose anymore weight for a week.. is this consider a plateau? and does it mean my metabolism adapt faster then others bz i’ve read that it take at least 3 months for the body to adapt to low or high calories but mine adapted in only 20 days… i’m still trying to lose 5 more kg.. and if i do the reverse diet will i gain weight and can i fix my metabolism in one week “rest week” maybe increase 70 calories/day so i get to 1900 calories plz help
which one is the most important. daily workout or daily diet?
So how is the stored energy in bodyfat measured? And if you turn down the carbs and increase the fat intake by an equivalent energy amount will you lose fat?
And if someone eating keto and training hard every day say competing in boxing breaks a leg and stops training but carries on eating exactly the same.. why do they get fat?
I’m not looking to knock ur work but that link “High Fat diet increases Metabolism” means nothing! 1. It doesn’t share the results of the scheduled high fat diet with the scheduled low fat diet and 2. it says “the mice on the scheduled high-fat diet exhibited a unique metabolic state in which the fats they ingested were not stored, but rather utilized for energy at times when no food was available, such as between meals.” This just means that when no food was available, and no doubt insulin would be low, they burnt bodyfat!
None of this proves that CICO is not important for fat loss as you for some reason keep promoting now.
What’s a good way to find our normal maintenance calories? Some of the online calculators give quite high figures and I’m worried I’ll just continue gaining body fat if I eat at that level
I am 73 been in Ketosis for 5 months now have lost 30 pounds and still need to lose about another 15 or so. Can I just stay in Ketosis full time now or should I go back to just a low carb diet after I lose all my weight? Are you still in Ketosis or just low carb?
So if you’re gaining weight throughout the reverse diet, how do you know when to stop and start maintaining? I guess in my mind, going over maintenance = weight gain, so that would be the only sign I’d know to look for. BUT I totally get that it’s normal to gain throughout, so that would be an irrelevant way to say you’re done, right? I just don’t know what else to look for as the end goal. Like you said, I know I can’t push my body to something crazy like 5000 cal, but I’ve been in a deficit of anywhere from 1100 1500 cal for 2 years now and I have no idea where I should be aiming for. I’d love any tips or advice you’ve got! Thanks:)
Yes going into my 5th yr.I tried the lower fat and gained back 20lbs of the 50lbs I had lost! Back to basics and losing again! Thank you Dr.Berry for getting the word out!
Bad advice, if you want to lose body fat then keep the dietary fats low on keto.
Was 2500 calories the amount of calories you were eating right before your cut when you were on a bulk?
Good info! My 9 year old son has CMT, which affects the nerves. He is also a little chubby from not being very active because of muscle weakness. Ijust put him on a keto diet and can’t wait to see the results.
I’ve experimented with every fat reduction manual and also this weight loss plan “Yamzoko Weebly” (Google it) is the one which is effective for me along with their goods to burn fat. I don’t truly feel jittery or maybe feel a crash, I’m also not as hungry as I used to. I’ve lost around 15 pounds ever since using this item..
What about tortillas, I cook mexican food every day,how can I balance that? Pls answer thank you
This video has great advice, but I’m confused about the best diet plan that I need to work with, only because I have never taken any. Anyone tried the Custokebon Secrets? I’ve noticed some people mention great things about Custokebon Secrets.
Gallbladder problems run in my family. I wonder if it’s safe to follow a keto/carnivore without also suffering constipation& low electrolytes
Shut it off after she said trust me your body does do good with carbs when there is scientific studies showing that some people don’t
I am not being able to avoid carbs 100%, I feel very weak/low energy if I don’t eat little bit of roti/Indian flat breads/carbs and get insomnia.
Hi! I have a question about over the counter plant sterols to lower cholesterol: do they lower anything I don’t want lowered ex. Good cholesterol or do they just target bad cholesterol and lower triglycerides? Thank you!!!
What about calories? A lot of the Keto recipes I see on YouTube have very high calorie counts. Is this something to be concerned about?
Leptin and Grehlin sound like two evil characters from Harry Potter XD
I see them shoulders poppin out more man so fucking proud of you!
Can I Do this and then Go to vegetarian/Vegan once I’ve lost my goal weight?
I went vegetarian 2 years ago and have put on the lbs like 65lbs worth I’m only 5’2. I really am doing it to be kind to animals and the environment. I am however very concerned since I’m at 1000 calories a day for 3 months and cannot seem to lose the weight. I’m only down 4 lbs. I don’t consume dairy the only animal products that I eat are eggs
Question: do you think the carnivore diet would cause someone to have fewer cold sore breakouts? Thanks!
Hey Doc! Im dealing with some autoimmune issues like eczema. I had great success cutting out almost all plants and go full carnivore. However my biggest problem is that I am reacting to eggs (don’t know if its just the whites, don’t want to try it out at the moment) and I am allergic to seafood since I was a kid (which was my only allergy my whole life). So there is not a lot of left to eat and I don’t enjoy this kind of diet. Could you give me any tipps on how to move from that? Thanks a lot Doc!!
I did my first cut starting last April. 5 months lost 30lbs but kinda plateaued. In October I wanted to try to reverse diet so I would be good for holidays. Did 100 cals every week. Went from about 118-120 at the end of my cut to 115 reverse dieting. Eventually I started gaining higher than 2400. And that was coming from 1300-1400 in my cut.
I must have lost 80 pounds of water weight over the last year eating carnivore which is a subtype of keto diet!
Dr. Berry, please do not cut off the top of your head when making your awesome videos!:-)
This diet really works. Not only do I feel great, but I have lost 80 pounds since January.
Less snacking for sure! Yes, we lost weight. But it’s not just that. Its energy, it’s a glow, its feeling younger and never feeling that food coma. Life changing way of eating and I’m forever keto.
My work buddy laughed when I told them I was gonna reduce weight with just implementing Custokebon Secrets, but after I showed these people awesome results after I used it they’re begging me to tell them about it. Of course I won’t tell them the details about this diet plan, hahaha
If losing weight is your goal, only the number of calories is relevant. Sure there are more and less healthy foods, but for the goal of weight loss that does not directly matter at all.
I ate about 835 calories for 16 months. Now, after losing 112 lbs., I’m supposed to be eating 1300/ day at a 20% deficit. I raised my calories to 1k to 1100 (I eat a lot!), and I seem to have broken the slump I was in for the past month or so. Hopefully, progress continues!
I’ve been sick for 6 months and lost a significant amount of muscle. I look thinner now, but my metabolism is so slow that I barely can eat. I should reverse diet, right? It’s impossible for me to keep losing fat with that little muscle. I’m just afraid of looking bigger before being able to slim down:(
Thank you DR Berry, I started the Keto diet 7 months ago weighing 285 lbs. I do intermittent keto an only eat 1 or 2 times a day at 1 pm and 5 pm. I mainly do carnivore diet and have lost over 65 lbs and down to 218 lbs and lost 14 inch’s in my waist, my lab work this week was great, My A1C is 4.9 so I’m no longer diabetic, my HDL is 85, ldl is 35 and triglycerides are 100 and the great thing is being on keto isn’t difficult in my case anyway it has become a lifestyle that I’m comfortable with. I know I’ve done the work but thank you Dr Berry for starting me on this wonderful way of living!
What do you say to all these vegans like Jeffery Smith,Pam Popper, Esselstein and Colin Cambell saying if you eat animal products your gonna get heart disease and die younger. I’ve done vegan but now I’m keto and I feel amazing and strong eating HFLC. Some of them vegans don’t look so well I think. So is eating clean animal foods safe in the long haul. I don’t know who to believe. I think variety is best.
I’ve lost 53 pounds since the start of Oct. Cutting out Soda, eating out, just eating unprocessed & have started walking 1 hour a day. I eat 2,000 a day. I think it’s time to start doing weights. Need to find a gym buddy as I find it boring on my own. ����♥️
If I have Rice and vegitables in my ancestor genome with beef and other meat because my probable two ancestors would be Aryan race and Dravidians they have rice and meat so if I follow Carnivore diet would it cause a bad reaction or can it be sustained?
Can you eat wild game and the fat like, deer, elk, moose, goose, ducks and get same results?
Hi, I have a couple of questions
I am 62.
I had a quadruple bypass about 6 years ago. I felt good until recently
About 3 months ago I had a mild heart attack and had a stent. Then about 2 months ago I had an incident similar to afib, but my doc doesn’t agree with the hospital so I guess it wasn’t that. I still have a good ejection fraction and no apparent muscle damage but obviously things are going the wrong way. I have been vegan. But gaining weight on it pretty rapidly. No jjunk food. Would keto be safe for someone with my history? I am not diabetic but think I have insulin resistance. Thanks!
A healthy amount of fat in our diet also provides us with body heat we need during the colder seasons and in those colder areas of the world. I love fat, always have. To bad the world has been told it is not good for us. Thank you Dr. Berg.
It’s videos like this one that make me want to go back and rewatch ken berry’s ‘keto is the worst diet’ video, haha
Dr. Berg my infant granddaughter has an elevated IRT 169….what can we do about her pancreas. They are testing for cystic fibrosis, but I’m sure there is something we can give her to help her pancreas perform. Any help would be a blessing. Thank you
Going on two years, only needed to lose 30 pounds which I achieved fairly quickly. Blood pressure which was running high has been below 120/80 for over 18 months. Feeling great at 62 years old. At my high school weight. Knee pain has disappeared. Great work Dr Berry,
I attest to this, I was 367 15 months ago, changed my eating by elimination sugar, processed foods, and eating low carb, high fat and today am 190 and have about 20 lbs to go. I also eat twice a day in an eight hour period and fast about sixteen hours a day and never feel starved. I am a bit hungry when I wake, drink a cup of coffee and I’m good till my first meal.
I’m actually glad you made this video. I have been exercising for a month now and have been trying to eat better. The thing is that I have only lost like 4 pounds and I’m getting discouraged. I have been pushing myself harder every week at the gym but I’m seeing very little results.
I used to starve myself AND lift weights at the same time. I did lose a lot of weight and got a lot of compliments, but I messed up my stomach, my period stopped, my hair started shedding like crazy and my face was pale all the time. It’s not healthy and definitely not worth it.
Dr Berry YOU are a saint, an angel and a savior for THIS 50 something year old couple. We were vegetarian and were both insulin resistant and despondent about HOW to lose the weight that just kept creeping creeping creeping up. We have lost 100 pounds between us since December 1 2018. Now we have to move to TN cuz I don’t have no more time to argue with my Dr’s about what i’m eating! How long is your waiting list for new patients???
Personally, I don’t like gyms. They are so crowded and I can’t do my workout there. I decided to take bodyweight training plan from NextLevelDiet. Training plan is great and I can do it from home. They also give you diet plan which supports your fitness goals.
Hey Ken, mixed sources will also warn you about how too much fat will also spike insulin. How does the body process too much protein different from too much fat? And what are the healthiest levels of each in our diet (on a carnivore diet)?
I’m trying to tell you there’s a lot of people out here that will help you with your appearance, and no one that will teach u to be happy in life.
The reason keto his worked for me is because I really liked greasy fast food. It was not a far jump to tweak it to a clean keto diet. Quit the diet coke for sparkling water almost 9 years ago and have managed to keep the 120 pounds off. I have had some falters when I had to go on antidepressants when my dad was dying of brain and lung cancer, but thanks to keto, the small weight gain came right back off. I will be on this lifestyle forever.
To eat more and weigh less. Eat fruits and vegetables.
One pound of honeydew = one table of olive oil in terms of calories. Both are ‘healthy’ but only one keeps you full.
One ounce of nuts is half a pound of brocolli.
Can’t control yourself at a buffet? Find your favourite fruit and eat 3 pounds of it before you go for that buffet. This is the concept of sequencing. You won’t overeat if you already came to the buffet full.
This is the volumetrics diet, by Dr Barbàra rolls.
I made 780,000 dollars last year, so she’s wrong and that’s kinda why I’m over weight. I own 15,000 trucks in the oilfield and I’m kinda wealthy now so I do a lot of sitting.
Thank you for the carb comment. I try to tell people all the tiiiiiime that they should not be afraid of carbs. I have so many friends on that keto or paleo diet.:(
I have been looking for a way to count my carbs every day, and haven’t found anything, any suggestions?
I appreciate your videos and eventhough I am not a professional I find your nutritional view the best there is in a variety of all truth and lies on Internet… Keep on the good work…. I would like to ask you if you could cover a topic obout breastfeeding and the safest way to loose weigh and troubleshoot with loosing weight due to hormonal imbalance, and relation with different body types… And other topic I would like your point of view is gluten intolerance, sensitivity and weight gain, because everybody talks obout weight loss and this is also an issue for people like me who suffer from the reactions and bloating and gain weight even with almost frequent diarrhea if consuming gluten. Thank you for your time to read and have a nice day!
This video is an over complication of what is essentially someone not sticking to the calories they say they’re on. You say you increased a clients calories by 200 and they managed to train harder and lose body fat. This isn’t some magic reverse diet. They’ve simply become compliant.
I also don’t see how your BMR makes up ‘about’ 60% of your calories per day. If you are extremely sedentary it may make up as much as 10% of your intake.
I’m also not sure how you can have an ‘unhealthy’ metabolism. Sure it can adapt but it hardly becomes ‘unhealthy’.
Your videos were one of the reasons I lost around 54 KG (120 lbs). Started last december. It was so smooth and almost effortless compared to my attempt 3 years ago. On top all of that, I don’t feel hungry until my eating window (OMAD now). Thank you Dr.Berry
This was super helpful in understanding they WHY behind eating a high fat diet!
Eggs, bacon, greens sauteed in bacon fat, and BPC is my go-to breakfast!
Look up avatar nutrition. They adjust your macros each week after you weigh in and check your body fat. They have reverse dieting, fat loss, muscle gain, and maintenance settings. There are also multiple levels on each setting. 10$ a month for a personalized diet plan. There’s also a Facebook group

Should you use an electrolyte supplement on a regular basis while on Carnivore diet long term?
Hi Dr Berry what advise can u give to a menopausal woman.. am on this kito for 5 months now and am not loosing any kinda of waight and its very frustrating. I feel real tired and my pains are back. Plz advise.
The fat stored in our body, is that energy fat, raw materials for body fat, nutrient fat, or all of the above?
I’m disappointed in this as well as the article I read on popsci recently. The info is not accurate and is misleading. Keto can be excellent for weight loss and a healthy way to lose weight. The goal is to be in ketosis. Many people can easily be in ketosis with less than 85-90% of their intake being from fat. Keto can be excellent for reversing type 2 diabetes and greatly reduce the risk of diseases that T2D brings about. This site is usually more factual but now I will have to question much more of what I see here.
This video literally has more information on reverse dieting than in any other bro bodybuilder’s video. Incredible
I am not here for information, but to help those who are seeking answers and help! Not too long ago, I was deeply plunged into internet searches and videos in hopes of understanding WHY despite all my efforts, I could not lose weight! I have tried everything under the sun from the modest diets to the extreme and nothing worked. When I say extreme, I mean going for months and months on 200 to 500 calories and not losing a single pound! Not 1 pound. Now, if that sounds completely impossible to you then my comment was not meant for you! This is for those of you who know exactly what I am talking about, because you’ve been there or are currently experiencing this phenomenon. After a while, I could not find anymore motivation. After the ups and downs of my weight, only to end up where I started I thought my mind and body had gievn up. I just did not have it in me to exercise, even though I continued dieting. I used to search “low motivation” and “weight loss plateaus”. I even tried the reverse diet trick, only to be disappointed. After a very long time, I have uncovered the reasons I was unable to lose weight and that’s not to say I may not discover more reasons to my slow wright loss down the line. Anyways, I want to share some of the things I learned about myself and that I am currently getting corrected with medications. Maybe you might be experiencing these problems too or something similar? You just never know! Do what I did and keep asking questions until you discover what is wrong.
1. PCOS which caused a horomal imbalance amongst other things!
2. Severely deficient in vitamin D! Even though I was prescribed a mega dose vitamin D weekly, I had my levels checked a year later and the levels were exactly the same! So they changed the type of vitamin D prescribed, as well as the dosage and frequency and I feel like a different person. I feel normal, motivated and energetic. I had become so used to feeling tired and fatigued that I did not even know something was wrong, because it became my normal! But nothing is normal about an absence of motivation and energy!
3. Depression, but I knew that already!
4. Severely Anemic (I don’t experience heavy bleeding, so my doctors are stumped) I get iron infusiomn every few months now to remain stable.
5. Metabolic Syndrome (hopefully this was caused by the hormonal imbalance and can be corrected).
Now obviously I’m a weird case (why me?) and I don’t expect anyone to be this screwed up. The only point I’m trying to get accross is that I had no idea all of these things was wrong with me, let alone preventing me from losing weight and attributing to symptoms I came to believe was normal, such as increased hunger, mood swings and insomnia. If you find it impossible to lose weight, there might just be a medical reason for it. By the way, I have lost 57.2 pounds in 3 and a half months. Good luck and never give up!
A nutricionist got me on a 1200 calorie diet plus 1 hour cardio. After 2 months of losing weight I suddenly hit a plateau and stayed there a long time. After all the stress and feelings of failure I decided to continue with weight lifting and resistance training and eating a bit more. In no time I started to lose weight again. Slowly but steady.
He is so wholesome and sweet and I’m convinced he’s the long lost son of coach kozak from Hasfit because they’re both so pure ����❤️❤️
My science teacher is having us convinced that White Rice is a healthy complex carb. Lol. Even brown rice isn’t so good for you.
SIR which fats are you recommending to eat SATURATED or POLYUNSATURATED or MONOUNSATURATED. All THESE ARE NOT UNDER MCT. so WHAT TO EAT????????
is a type 1 diabetic still able to lose weight if they add healthy fats to their diet due to their pancreas not working and therefore not able to break down fat? what do you recommend for type 1 diabetics with breaking down fat?
Can eating fat help you lose weight? — Definitely, yes. Is it healthy? — Unfortunately, no.
