Never ever have I came across video about working out and eating that didn't make me feel guilty or bad. The way you explained your way of doing things makes me feel like I'm doing actually good job. Thanks for shearing! 🙂

[@juliamerwin]

That makes me so happy to hear!!!🥹❤️

[@user-qb4pn6jr9x]

I love they way you’ve explained all of this and thank you for that ❤

[@MariahVitoria]

Excellent video! Love how realistic you are. Looking forward to more content!

[@juliamerwin]

Thank you so much!! I can definitely create more content along these lines!

[@GrossAnatomy]

Great video ! Thank you! I’m going though my journey too- I wonder about the term calorie deficit tho…. Some people over exercise and under eat and consider calorie deficit - however I love that you fit into the carbs feel good for your body and you noticed that in your journey I feel there is such a big push to protein … great video and congrats on meeting your goal !❤

[@biancafinney7048]

Love this video and the fact that you really simplify everything so it makes sense and is easy to replicate.

[@juliamerwin]

Thank you so much! I always try to keep things as simple as possible; if it's simple and easy to understand it make it way easier to apply to your life! Hope you have a great day! :)

[@melissagrace3973]

I really appreciate the joy and gentleness you exude when sharing your experience

[@juliamerwin]

Thank you so much, means the world to me!!!

[@trythiscassie]

Thank you for talking about food and fitness in such a refreshing way💕 I’m so tired of some fitness creators telling me what I can’t eat or should eat and lowkey promoting an ED😭

[@juliamerwin]

THANK YOU!!!! I have such a balanced and simple approach to my health and fitness! It's all about working out and eating in a way I genuinely enjoy and can see myself doing for decades!!!! Everything in moderation!

[@jeanavery4451]

First time seeing any of your videos and this is all so interesting! Oh, and I also love buttered noodles. My husband had never heard of them before. I also add 12/3/30 to my workout week, and it is HARD! Twice during the 30 minutes, I have to hold onto the handles of my treadmill for 30-60 seconds for a quick break, and a healthy sip of water. Oh, and when I eat carbs, I gain fat. I do have them, but in limited amounts.

[@DesignEmail-xp4gh]

The body doesn’t NEED carbs. Going on two years carnivore and I‘ve fixed so much, gained muscle, and lost weight.

[@juliamerwin]

Yea you can train your body to use other fuel/energy but carbohydrates are the body & brains primary and preferred fuel source! I’ve lost over 20 pounds now (this video is old) while holding onto muscle, and I’m eating more carbs than ever!! It’s all about finding what works for YOU! I’m so glad you’ve found success through carnivore! Happy for you and your results!

[@zeldadanielle]

I'm going through both the NASM CPT and Certified Nutritionist classes. I lost so much motivation recently. Working 12s and trying to stay active while in school with a kid in school has me exhausted 🥴😩

[@jivrouss]

Very useful!❤

[@Nadia-nv4bf]

Thanks for sharing! I'm on the same journey. I workout and eat pretty nutrient dense just like you but wanted to cut 8lbs of fat too to get to my goal weight. I don't usually count macros but just started buy increasing my protein % to 50% of calorie intake to see how my body reacts to that. Like you said it is so fun to experiment. So glad you found what works for you!

[@juliamerwin]

Such a fun experiment and so cool to see how the body responds to different stimulus!!

[@brittanyritz10]

Hello Julia! I am a recent subscriber. I found your videos while looking for crz yoga reviews. I have been loving your videos it feels like I am watching a friend. I am from a small town in West Virginia just about an hour and a half south of Pittsburgh and I am also a fellow WVU alumni. Very informative video!

[@juliamerwin]

Omg small world!! SO happy you are here!!!

[@marikos.154]

So appreciate this. Thank you🙂

[@juliamerwin]

Thank you so much!!!

[@zoewilliamson]

This was a great video- thank you! I was laughing during the video because you and I have VERY similar mannerisms! Like, it's trippy haha! Thanks for the awesome info

[@juliamerwin]

Hahaha I am constantly talking with my hands! Thank you so much!!

[@notmyrealname6272]

So funny on the topic of carbs (I can’t agree more btw)😅 reminds me of my friend who is half Italian. “You can’t take bread and pasta away from me” haha love it!

[@juliamerwin]

Thank you so much!!! The brain and body need those carbs!!!

[@notmyrealname6272]

@@juliamerwin I absolutely agree. They get such a bad press which really upsets me. I’m a triathlete and without plenty of carbs I simply couldn’t train but even without any sport at all we still NEEDD THEM!!! Just found your channel and feeling inspired by your back. I want that! It’d really help my swimming to develop more of an upper body. Hmm. Must address this! Enjoying watching all your videos now!

[@cdunn351]

Amazing video

[@juliamerwin]

Thank you so much!!

[@sweetprincessrulez]

Typically how long are your daily walks?

[@westfield90]

The rest days make a huge difference.

[@amycnews1593]

Yay! Yay! Yay! 🥳🥳🥳

[@nishthab7994]

02:15 is where it starts

[@kweight8498]

No matter what you choose, diet, exercise or meds. Weight loss is not easy. I recently shared my story on my channel, on how I lost 22 pounds in 5 weeks, which could be really helpful to anyone struggling with weight loss.

[@annarandall6723]

Thank you

[@emilyjoy27]

How long are your walks?

[@Cahnsarah]

The highest incline my treadmill have is 10. Can I do 10-3.5-30 and have similar impact?

[@juliamerwin]

Yes! 10% is still a great incline!

[@myras2blessed2beestressed32]

Can you explain 12:3:30? Ik it have to do with incline and walking.

[@juliamerwin]

Incline walk on the treadmill at 12% incline walk 3mph and 30 minutes total!!

[@myras2blessed2beestressed32]

@@juliamerwin sweet, thank you 😊

[@maryclebeau]

I don’t feel wellif I do not have carbs. I think there are too many different diets. I think a well balanced diet is important. We need red meat!!! It has amino acids that we need. Yes, it’s not for everyone, however, for most people we all need to just eat less, balance your plate with vegetables, salad, protein and a good source of carbs and watch the processed foods and sugar. I have read so many different diet books. I have realized balance in everything even in nutrition is key. I am 66 years old. I have been a dieter since 14 years old. I wasn’t obese. I wanted to be skinny. I was 5’5” 120 lbs. I thought I was fat. The media and society has done this to us for years. Sad to say dieting has only made us fatter! 😮

[@DeliaNErik]

I fast I only eat 2 times a day is amazing so I eat between 6 hrs

[@juliamerwin]

Whatever works for YOU and YOUR body!!!

[@orfafoss5078]

[@denisephil7967]

Naaa, not for me..everything was fine until the old "calorie deficit and less calorie in and more out" comes along. I did better in low carb higher fat, got rid of excess fat and I'm now building up muscle and have a bit more carbs only after workout(lifting) no cardio just walks, no snacking and have not to track a single nothing!

[@juliamerwin]

I only tracked the first month of my cut like I said! I haven't tracked in months! It's all about learning what works for YOU and YOUR body; that's the beauty of it! Everyone is different and like I said a million times, it's not a one size fits all thing! It takes some experimenting and trial & error! So glad you found success and found what works for you! I am truly happy for you!

[@Maria-sd8oj]

How much cala did u cut?:)

[@juliamerwin]

about 300 less calories than maintenance!

[@Maria-sd8oj]

@@juliamerwin so how much?;)

[@juliamerwin]

@@Maria-sd8oj That's totally personalized to me and my activity level! So I mean this in the nicest way, but it wouldn't matter for you or help you to know! I suggest finding your maintenance then going from there!

[@Saammi619]

Do you think you could do a video on tips to have a healthy relationship with food? 🤍

[@juliamerwin]

Definitely something I can film in the future!!
