I’ve just done this ! Wow thanks so much for this and it’s freeeeeee!!!!

[@janeren8709]

You are the only person on the internet that have explained the calorie deficit so clearly for many many years that I have tried to understand fitness. I have tried so many workouts and diet and yoyoed in my weight. Watching your channel had just allowed me the epiphany of what had truly worked in the past. I’m almost 40 but what you explained applies to every woman! Thank you so much and I will be following you!

[@curiousobserver5332]

I agree! I am sharing this with everyone! Great info!!!!! Soooo great.

[@wackthegood8884]

In 13 minutes you have explained so clearly the whole idea of macronutrients that I've been struggling to understand for years, and how to work out a personalised diet plan. This is amazing! Thank you. I finally have a blueprint to get started, and also this has eradicated my fear of a high-protein diet being all about meat. The idea that a bowl of oats, with Greek yoghurt can also be a healthy high-protein meal is a game changer for me. This has been the most helpful 15 minutes of my dieting life!!

[@curiousobserver5332]

1,000% agree. If you like peanut butter, I have discovered PBfit powder and is better for you peanut butter & is sooooo good mixed in with oats and Greek yogurt for added protein. SO yummy.

I keep sharing this channel with all my friends and family. I believe it’s because I actually have seen results. I am so determined . Melissa you are changing lives . I worked out today only 39 minutes , I ate protein shake for breakfast, lunch I ate the Ezekiel bread and avocado and two small slices of Turkey breast. Dinner ground Turkey spinach and tomato. I can’t wait for my variety weights to come in , right now I only have 20 pounds dumbbell and a 50 pound dumbbell . I am thinking of ordering blow-flex.

[@ParadiseKauai]

Get a total gym, resistance bands, kettelbell and booty bands instead. :)

Thank you for all of this wonderful information Melissa....as someone who has been BATTLING weight loss(and losing), now having to think of dietary changes for Type 2 Diabetes as well as menopause, definitely gives insight on a blueprint to go in the right direction.

[@Pa1Fe]

Thank you Melissa, you are such an inspiring person I thought that just who is 20/30 can have great health and feel amazing every day... finally you prove every day that what was "impossible" it is possible ...my big mistake was I always jump in to the 1200 cal X day with very little carbs ...which I could not sustain😓 ...I eventually hit a plateau and not loose weight, not having anywhere to go to because could not train every day for 4/5 hours or eat less than 1000 cal without becoming a cranky and on the edge human...finally I understood what was wrong ❤️ you are the best!❤️

[@MelissaNeill]

You’re so on point and brave to acknowledge this. So many women want to be on incredibly low calories as believe they’ll be more successful

[@TheHealingVoiceofReason]

You are my go to. I got off but now I'm getting back on. And when I was doing it before just following the meal plan and working out 4 days a week not really strenuously I saw my figure take shape. That was with weight training and a little bit of cardio. So I totally appreciate you I think you look great and you are a godsend for women 40 and over.

[@yvettenaputi3733]

I truly appreciate this video. Thanks, Melissa!

[@lorismith1842]

Great advice Melissa. I'm 63 and have stalled my weight loss at 140 lbs so am going to work on balancing my macros and increase my protein intake to see if that helps.

[@mrscf8865]

I know it was a while ago, did it help?

[@michellehenry5172]

Thank you Melissa for your platform, I have been following you for the last couple of months and I am learning so much from you. You are truly inspiring. I have downloaded fitness and nutrition plans.

Thank you!!! Definitely going to try this. Yes

[@gabrielledean5999]

I have been binge watching your videos and you are a great inspiration. When you talk about carbs are these total carbs or net carbs?

[@monicasparkman7904]

Hi Melissa please tell me where you purchased your red competition swim suit… I’m 57 and training for my first show in June. I love your look!

[@strongerwomenover5049]

Thank you Melissa - its a wonderful thing that you share as much as you do. You clearly want to help women over 40. And your transformation is amazing - bravo! Keep up the good work!

Thank you, Melissa!!’

[@beautifulme1618]

Thank you for sharing and by the way you look fantastic. Have a blessed 😇 day.

[@schoolingdiana9086]

My problem has been not eating enough. I work from home and get so busy, I’ll forget to eat. I finally set a daily alarm on my phone for 1:30pm, so I’m not suddenly grumpy and dizzy at 4:30pm. Once I’ve increased my calories, I’m finally losing the fat. (I’ve always been an enthusiastic kettlebell/weight trainer. Even before I started playing hockey a few years ago.)

[@simonkalibwani5832]

Finally a channel I can recommend to my fiance. Gotta start them early 😅

[@margeauxjenkins12]

Great content!

[@thecleaningguru7253]

Hi Melissa, what is your suggestion on milk? Supplements. Is coconut be better than almond milk or oat milk?

[@MelissaNeill]

That totally depends on your taste preference.

[@Gypsyxo0127]

I'm Vegan. I'm trying to find a good protein powder. So many are so expensive and also how do I fund one without all the heavy metals, glysophates in them? Thanks for your help!

[@maram6211]

Make one yourself. This why you know exactly what`s in it and you can count its macros correctly. I am vegan, too and I stopped protein powders and eat real food instead.

[@traceycurtis6195]

So positive love channel ❤️ 💖 💕

[@Adeledoublel]

Thanks Mel for adding the link too the calorie calculator * Lowers calories from today * oops x

[@AgnieszkaJaworska]

Hey Melissa.. Thank you for your all advice and knowledge. Based on what you said I've cut too much from very beginning and now my weight stopped and doesn't want to drop any more.... Should I increase my calories and cut again much less now?

[@tonyaberman3669]

Melissa, African yam is good for menopause. They actually sell wild yam pills for menopause. African yam is even better then Soy bean.

[@monicalopez8634]

Hi there ..love your vids by the way. I am so confused about "macros". Is there a book or a website to learn about it? Thanks

[@prdivamom]

Thx for this information… if I’m not working out should my carbs be less than 100? Thx

[@VeggieVllc]

I find I need very few calories. 47 menopausal current weight 109-111 5’5”. Seems I only burn about 1300-1350 cals a day even with training 4-6 days a week. Kind of sucks but I use caloric density to my advantage.

[@mache42883]

@Melissa Neil, when I use the calorie calculator what do I put down for activity level sedentary to light? I’m not that active. I am just starting, thanks.

[@mollykorff]

Hello Melissa, I have been eating about 1200 calories for 5 years, I am fairly active( nurse) 60 years old. I have alot of belly fat since eating low caloric diet. I am 1.67 m tall and weigh 65kg. Hoe do I repair my metabolism and loose the belly fat? Thanks Yvette

[@sandymywayofcooking1853]

Are you on Hormone therapy replacement?

[@heather4089]

People telling me to eat 1,800 😳, no way I’m eating almost 2,000 to burn fat. That’s why I stopped seeing my nutritionist. She was not considering that I’m on my menopause. I just did it, I should be eating 1,069 .

[@burymebelowawillowtree9243]

So you’re eating around 1200 cals a day?

[@indy3240]
