Ep:320 Q&A PEARLS OF KETO WISDOM… MY BEST VIDEO EVER, AGREED?

[@DIAMONDGIRL57]

“Dining in! Eating what’s inside you.” Brilliant!!!

[@mellocat932]

Instead of focusing on food for milestone events, shift to a fun activity like a fishing trip,or a hike somewhere, a cool museum, or a spa day. 😊

[@nickkatz2336]

This is such good advice! After going carnivore & finally feeding myself enough food everyday I realized how food-centric people’s lives are! I feel I am now eating to live, not living to eat. I have more free time & more joy for life. My friends say they “feel bad for me” that I can only eat meat & that they feel stressed when going out to eat with me now. Idk why! I dont talk about my food, I just order several burger patties or a ribeye or some fish & get on with my meal. My inflammation is down, my chronic pain is down, & I WANT to get out & go fishing, hiking etc. But my friends are still overweight & still have fatigue & they want every get together to be planned around food, not activities! I’m sure we’ll figure it out, but we’re currently in an annoying phase that is honestly a bit boring for me because there is SO much more to do than eat!!

[@tommydinob]

He’s right! Took at least a year and 9 months to really be fat adapted and have it dialed in. Lost over 100lbs on keto. Now, I don’t put on weight…even when I over eat or relapse on some carbohydrates (which is rare, but happens here and there).

[@kirkwolak6735]

Net Carbs... This is how addicts negotiate themselves back to their addiction! Thanks Doc. I always appreciate your Videos. This is one of your better ones!

[@markiangooley]

Out of curiosity I tried Aldi’s so-called keto bread again after over a year since my last try. It’s mostly a modified wheat starch that supposedly isn’t digestible. Almost no “net carbs” per slice, supposedly. I’m a type 1 diabetic on a CGM, and a single slice of toasted “keto” bread raised my blood glucose over 20 mg/dl. It’s fairly expensive bread, it doesn’t taste very good, and the low “net carbohydrates” content isn’t true for me.

[@lauriedouglas3462]

Great way to put it! It is a negation we have to justify eating something to feed the addiction!!

[@christinaminto3279]

I am 102 days carnivore and love this way of eating I have no cravings now and struggled with them my entire life I am 57 “everything in moderation” never worked for me, now I fully understand why. I did the advisor training course with Prof Tim Noakes and I loved your talk, it really explained a lot and you didn’t “sugar coat it” it’s a carb/ sugar addiction for those of us that can’t stop at one small piece or bite, thanks Doc. ❤

My biggest keto mistakes early on… “getting my fats in” when I wasn’t hungry … bullet proof coffee … keto bombs

[@runemartinguldberg9056]

That fat was very beneficial to train your body burning fat and not carbs.

[@msbeecee1]

​@runemartinguldberg9056 yes they are very helpful in first phase but it definitely needs to come to an end eventually to facilitate body fat burning AFTER getting fat adapted

[@keithzastrow]

@@msbeecee1 EXACTLY right. You're going to have a very hard time losing fat/weight if you're shoving fats down your throat which is why I do NOT believe at ALL in keto until after you're at an ideal body weight. I've been doing Atkins (as far as the fat/protein/carb % is) and it works. Lost 40 lbs this year.

[@gaynorbishop9749]

@msbeecee1 ... Keto/LCHF is used very successfully by health professionals to assist patients/clients to get TO normal weights from an obese state.

[@KCCAT5]

Well when I did keto was all of that fat dairy fat to be specific and I found out I kind of knew intuitively while doing keto that the dairy wasn't good but I found out later when I took it out I was so much better for it. It was that and the fat bombs and the replacement food like keto pizza or keto cheese calzones keto brownies you name it. Today I do carnivore and I keep it simple and I do not indulge in desert of any kind. If I need a snack it'll be a pork rind

[@HappybyChoice]

[@robertcywes2966]

Thanks

[@L.R.Nichols]

Your channel had the very first videos that I came across when I started my journey to cure my fatty liver. Carb Addiction. I'll never forget that term. I have now lost 35 kilos, cured my fatty liver, sleep apnea and a host of medical issues. It is literally life changing! My weight has plateaued for a year and a half. I am still "pleasantly plump" as my Father would say. 😅 Can't seem to lose more. But I have beat my carb addiction thanks to you! 3 years "clean" 😂 Thank you Dr. Cywes! This video was a boost I needed regarding adding too much extra fat. Thanks as always!

[@taradodson8097]

I'm not sure how much 35 kilos is, but you're story sounds similar to mine. This video reassured that I dont need the added fat. Just concentrate on fatty meat. Hopefully this will break my two year stall. Best wishes to u💞

[@L.R.Nichols]

@@taradodson8097 it's about 70 lbs. Wishing you the best of luck!

[@fragout45mightyjungle63]

​@taradodson8097 it takes 2.1lbs to equal 1 kilo. So multiply 2.2 x35= 77lbs.

[@fragout45mightyjungle63]

Correction it's 2.2lbs =1kilo

[@msbeecee1]

To break plateus, u need to stress the metabolism more by doing fasts. Dr Annettee Bosworth teaches a lot abt this

[@Akella1986]

“The healthiest meal you can eat anyone time if you overweight…is nothing”… absolutely amazing statement doc👍

[@enidcronin9704]

I agree entirely with you. I don't count my carbs because counting is a sure fire way for me to fail. I have been doing low carb now for over 2 years and 135lbs down I know instinctively what is not good to eat I only eat food that I make myself from real food. When I started I bought keto bombs etc and ended up giving them away. I go by my blood work, my weight and how good I feel. When I started my Hba1c was 12 it was repeated earlier this month and it was 5.5. I have never worried about being in ketosis I am more concerned about how healthy I feel and how much more efficient my body is. The question I get asked a lot is when will I go back to 'normal' eating as though low carb has a beginning middle and end and people are shocked when I tell them this is normal for me. As a society here in the UK we accept that normal diet is processed and snacks are standard that is why 60% of the population is overweight or obese. You just need to look around and you will see it for yourself. My worry is there are a lot of overweight children now especially since the lockdowns a future disaster looms.

[@martinlang9615]

Super Congratulations are in order. I’m very happy for you❤️

[@MyYT62]

Amazing well done Enid, I too am in the UK and started transitioning on the 1st Aug, terrible 60 years addiction to carbs, especially cakes, biscuits and chocolate etc, I have lost almost a stone and lowered my diabetes but when me and my hubby have been out on occasion for several hours we have ended up getting a sandwich or eaten a meal in a pub or cafe 😩 which is not at all advisable, it is a struggle but we will continue and hope to eventually break free from carbs completely 🙏🏻

[@marijanarezek2492]

Excellent! I'm a very good mathematician, but I don't want to count what I eat. I want a healthy diet to be my lifestyle. Thanks!

[@katdoe192]

snacking and keto sweets were my downfall the first time i did keto. the sweets even though they were not made with sugar kept me in the state of always craving sweets. i am now 16 days in to a ketovore way of life and i noticed just a few days ago this time i am not craving sweets or snacks

[@elizabethconnolly3260]

It is amazing how a few weeks of not eating sweets can change your brain to not crave them!

This was absolutely the best! I got so much opposing information from the online keto community. Found “replacement” recipes for my favorite foods, checked my ketones religiously, for two months. Got into therapeutic ketosis and lost weight FAST (scary fast). Recently steadily going up. Found Dr Westman and you and Keto with Casey. All say to stay “religiously” with real food. REVELATION. This video was my aha moment! Thank you so much.

[@gwb8445]

Very practical information. I can honestly say that once or twice a year I can drink a few beers and then just stop and not have another beer for another year or so. Started keto and evolved to carnivore 16 months ago. Lost over 100 lbs and still losing.

[@harvey_the_rabbit]

9 months into keto and now 4 weeks carnivore. Good tips.... Each and every one of them. The key is..... Mental adaptation..... Not food adaptation. Change your wsy of thinking or be prepared to fail!!!!!!!!!

[@mary-leslieholland7983]

Definitely I have to watch this one again and again! Loads of new bits of info - two years to become fat adapted on average... and developing the arrogance to look with disgust at carbs ... clear, concise delivery, thank you for this.

[@GaPeach2018]

The phrase “dining in”😂 is an eye opener! This is really great information and I’ve had numerous a-ha insights. I have no desire to count anything. With keto, I don’t have to. Like you said - it’s either yes or no.

[@poetryandpower263]

Yes you did clarify with me that my health depends on a life change from carb addiction.. not a "diet" not a gimmick, not a quick fix but a journey. Thank you for teaching me to respect my amazing liver and all I never knew it does for me.

[@alexr6114]

I gained weight when I went on the carnivore diet. It took time for me to realize that I was putting on weight around my waist because I was eating way too much meat once I eliminated vegetables, yogurt, and nuts. I added back about 1/3 cup of frozen kale and broccoli (mostly kale) total with my first meal and about a cup of raw romaine lettuce with my second meal. The added volume of vegetables helped me reduce the amount of meat. I expect to eat a certain volume of food to feel full after eating a meal. Adding a small amount of vegetables to my meals has helped me reduce the number of calories that I consume.

Good work

[@anitacooke3069]

Thank you for your video. I am a 61 year old female who lived on high carb low fat diet for 40+ years. I exercise and I am very lean. The reason I am checking into keto is that I am extremely reactive hypoglycemic and therefore have to eat every 3 hours. Like a hummingbird that lives on glucose. A view months ago I started to limit my carbs and added more fats in my diet. I think I am slowly starting to fat adapt and I am surprised how much fat I can actually eat without gaining any weight!! All these years I have deprived myself of this and caused a lot of physical pain and anxiety. I still eat some cabs right before I exercise, that seems to work for me. I will continue to experiment with this new way eating.

And we had a great time!

[@Arcadia61]

That is my MO as well. I love travelling and when I'm abroad, I will sample the local food. I try not to overdo it but will break quite a few rules along the way. Yes, I gain a couple of kilos usually, but once I'm back home, I revert to the ketogenic diet and I'm back to my usual weight within a week or 10 days at most. I noticed that most of what I gain is water and a few extra quick trips to the bathroom do the trick. In 15 months I've managed to lose 23% of my body weight, so it's working for me, even with the planned hiccoughs. Today, I managed to complete my first 24-hour fast and I was amazed at how easy it was. I could easily have gone further, in fact.

[@kurtbecker3827]

For me, most important info: "It takes about 2 years to become fully keto adapted." I suspected something like that. I am 3.5 month into my journey and for the last 6 weeks I do not see any improvement. I blamed it on the fact, that I "fell off the train" two times... once with alcohol and the other time with chocolate. Won't happen again. I may try the Ketone IQ stuff, because I find it very hard sometimes to fast, while the fridge is full of all the good stuff. So with other words... stop eating carbohydrates will get you started on a healthy life-style, but ONLY self-discipline will keep you there.

[@martinlang9615]

I’m also 3.5 months in an do a combination of Lion/Carnivore, with the occasional 14-18 hour fast. Am loving my life again. I will never go back and I’m very disciplined. It’s all or nothing for me. It’s literally saved my life. Never give up.

[@honkytonk4465]

Fat adapted!

[@rg4530]

Yep may people overthink the low carb lifestyle. It is not that complicated, and it really does come down to being more conscientious of what you are putting into your mouth and how that impacts blood glucose and insulin production. If you can get to stability without the huge swings caused by sugar and bad carbs, you will stabilize insulin and then be on your journey to becoming fat adaptive which in my opinion is the goal.

[@garykcarpenter]

It would be appreciated if you could present a total list of foods acceptable for all three meals in a day. These I would choose from when shopping and use when meal planning.

Lunch: Brussel sprouts, broccoli, broiled or grilled chicken meat, salad with olive oil and vinegar made with kale , bell pepper, nuts, tomatoes, romaine lettuce and cheese, Supper - grilled or broiled Salmon, shredded cole slaw with cabbage and beets, carrots or sweet potato, lima beans with berries for desert.

I agree that kids should not be introduced to our culture of sugar and carb addiction and glorification.
