EASY KETO FOR BEGINNERS! HOW TO START KETO?

[@chiquitabanana9892]

Normally I don't comment or have much to critique about your videos but your thumbnail girl. Using a comparison pic from 80+ BEFORE you started Keto and lost weight calorie counting/exercising instead of one from back in January when you actually started Keto is very misleading. Super calculating to use a much heavier picture so people think you lost all that weight on Keto and click on your video. Very disappointing you resort to click baiting people.

[@NicoleBurgess]

It's definitely not clickbait or ever was intended for that. Like I've mentioned in several of my videos before, when I lost the initial 85 pounds it was on a low carb lifestyle with exercise...now I'm doing keto which is a little more strict, but not far fetched from what I did initially. In 3 of my keto vlogs, I've done side by side comparisons of Jan-to certain milestones. If you were new to my channel, I might see how you would misconcept the thumbnail, but you said you aren't. Again, I'm only doing these types of videos to inspire, motivate, and help others with their health journey whatever that might be. If that thumbnail doesn't inspire you regardless of keto are not, I dont think you're here for the right reasons or the message I try to spread🤷‍♀️

[@Mfnbry]

I hardly ever comment on anything myself. But, unless you are new, this isn’t misleading at all. If you think it’s not possible to lose 80+ lbs on Keto, let me know. I’ll send you my own personal pictures. I’ve been doing Keto for 9.5 months now and am down 81 lbs. it’s possible. Nothing misleading here. Love you Nicole! And I love how passionate you are about Keto! I am the same! Living our best healthy life!

[@samanthajensen1009]

I think it would have been so much easier on keto to loose weight because of how much simpler it is to feel satisfied with high fat so not misleading at all! Get it gurl!

[@Sheli-_-]

I never comment but I’ve lost 140 pounds on this lifestyle so it definitely works!! I love my Southern Keto cookbook. I just started watching Dat Keto Lady. Thanks for all your help Nicole.

[@rws0010]

Chiquita Banana I seriously think you are a delusional person. Rant to yourself or your cats, were good here.

[@blkbrn1952]

I will just be honest, I expected to see a charge when I went to your page for menu suggestions. That is what so many people on You Tube would do. That is so nice of you, I've always liked you but now I think I love you and I have so much respect for you. You truly do want to help others.

First time I see this video. You were born to do this ! I'm on the keto lifestyle for one year now. Reached my goal weight in 3 months. Having some problems now with NOT EATING BREAD !!!

I'm on keto for 4 months and I did cheat a few times, but I'm back on it the next day. I love the keto life style, even though sometimes I miss the carbs. Love your channel, you're doing a great job and you're very inspiring.xx

[@dustyrose853]

Thanks for sharing your keto journey. I have been doing keto for 6 months and feel amazing. I am vegetarian and have adjusted the keto diet to my lifestyle. I started at 180 lbs and am currently at 139 lbs and have no plans to drop the lifestyle. Along the way I never tracked my macros, calories or steps. I recommend taking the vitamins you mentioned along with a multivitamin and probiotic. I also add apple cider vinegar a few times a week. I have made a few of your dessert recipes and love them. The lemon pound cake is one of my favorites. Stay dedicated and keep vlogging:)

[@NicoleBurgess]

Thanks for sharing your journey Amanda!! That is amazing! So many people are afraid of keto that are vegetarian, but as you've proven it can definitely be done! We got this together💪❤

[@PKMomLife]

This is an awesome video! You and Favor have been my motivators!! I started keto almost 2 weeks ago and already can’t imagine doing anything else ever again. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@ketolorabaltimore1843]

Amen and on point. 1 yr ketoversary at 55. Another suggestion is to take electrolytes and your collagen the weekend before you start every single, cuz she is right you will go thru on this journey but it is worth it. No more pain, and inches count. Start with walking just 15. Min

I am doing ok and drinking electrolytes and taking magnesium and potassium. I think this is helping a lot. I have a lot to lose, but I am grateful to learn a new way to live and eat.

Check outside Dr. Eric Westman @ Adapt your life on youtube. He suggest you find a doctor that is familiar with keto if you are on insulin. The reason why is because when you start ketogenic diet your insulin needs to be adjusted. Hope this information will help you.

19 days on strict Keto. I started 185 and only down 4 lbs. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I’m using carb manager and having more fat than protein and staying under 19 net carbs. I’m also trying to exercise too. I’m very discouraged. I can’t seem to lose the hanging belly weight from my first pregnancy three years ago. I used to be 130 pre pregnancy 😞

[@NicoleBurgess]

Maybe adjust your macros on carb manager & change up the type of foods you're eating. Some foods will cause or keep inflammation in your body...equally no weight loss or a stall. Did you measure yourself before? Are you losing inches? Keto can be a learning process for some until they figure out what works best for their body. Don't give up💪❤
