I lost over 175 pounds by going High Carb Low Fat, I started off doing raw vegan and then transitioned into the Starch Solution mixed with some fruit. I also added in barefoot walking along with Xero Shoes to help me get my posture back. My favorite exercise through this whole process has been the Cellerciser by Dave Hall.
I have also touched on some mental health/trauma issues that I have dealt with over the years on this channel as well but I think the physical and food is what is best suited here.

that's one busy supermarket. good video

[@keithbarbaro7590]

That's nothing. Joe's is usually much much busier. The Rego Park location usually has a line 20 deep with an employee directing traffic. Whole Foods always has a long line but it's not as bad now with self checkout.

[@highcarbregenerator]

HAHA very true, I like it that way though

[@rezamoradi4073]

Thanks for these sharings man!

[@highcarbregenerator]

Glad you liked it!

Trader Joe's❤

[@GingerWildcat]

You got leaner. Your muscle is starting to show.

[@highcarbregenerator]

Yeah it does seem to be getting better

[@PhilDietz]

cool video and song. And the grocery ceiling part looked like a music video for a second.

[@highcarbregenerator]

HAHA

[@jonathanr5184]

Trader Joes whole wheat lavash bread is the best.

[@highcarbregenerator]

It is but is often out of stock.

[@keithbarbaro7590]

I like Whole Foods. Wegman's is good too. Trader Joe's has quality food too. Whole Foods wins. Unfortunately Queens doesn't have a Whole Foods. Only county in America with a large population and no Whole Foods location. 2 million residents. I grew up going to Key Food, Met Food, and Stop n Shop. All local Queens and Brooklyn stores.

[@highcarbregenerator]

The one in downtown bklyn doesn't seem too far from queens, but that is koind of crazy.

Where had you bought the 80 pounds of potatoes you mentioned?

[@highcarbregenerator]

back in Ohio

Walmart has a nice wire shopping cart that is collapsible. I bought one and use it when I don't use my car. I bought it online and they shipped it to me. I live a mile from Kroger's and like walking when the weather permits. When I lived in Brooklyn many people used their own shopping carts. I like Kroger's produce. We have Lucky's Market , Sprouts, Trader Joes, Natural Grocers and Whole Foods. All have organic produce. We also have local farmers who donate their extra produce for a donation. I like getting that.

[@highcarbregenerator]

Lucky's I never liked the produce tbh, sprouts was too out of the way, but I like the others. Yeah I may get a collapsible, or just use the bike.

OMG! Ryan, I just emailed you a video to watch that made me squeal! The Mike guy talks about how some people (meeeeeeeee) do not do well with cooked starches and do WAY better with fruits as our carbs and more fats. It's on the Jay Feldman channel titled "The Secret to Stabilizing Blood Sugar WITH Carbs". He even explains why some of the low carb people do feel better on awful meat diets. I need to go back to a raw food diet with a lot of nut/seed butters, avocado, etc. and a moderate amount of fruit for carbs. While I can easily watch my blood sugar skyrocket to 279+ on plain rice, veggies, and salsa...I've never ever seen my body do that with fruit. My awful IBS struggles were also healed on a high fat, moderate fruit, raw diet years ago. I'm going back and staying back.

[@jonathanr5184]

But on fully raw high carb very low fat or 80 10 10, you would not feel good?

[@jonathanr5184]

279+ after a high starch low fat meal? I can eat an enormous amount of plain potatoes or white rice in one meal and I'm always under 140 2 hours after I finish eating.

[@Atheria444]

@@jonathanr5184 I felt horrid when I tried that years ago...scary heart pains and all.

[@Atheria444]

@@jonathanr5184 Yes...279+. Some of us will never ever thrive on 80-10-10.

[@highcarbregenerator]

I do way better on raw too but just don't like it. I mean way better

[@stephvollmerhausen4681]

Are you going home to Ohio for Thanksgiving?

[@highcarbregenerator]

no

[@Atheria444]

I cannot afford Whole Paycheck Market. I shop at Trader Joe's, Sprouts, Smith's (Kroger), and Albertsons. One guy gave you a NOT happy look when he noticed the camera in your cart. I miss being able to walk around to do errands. I mostly have to drive where I live in podunk.

[@jonathanr5184]

You can't afford Whole Foods Market even though you have a high paying job? Not everything there is that expensive.

[@keithbarbaro7590]

NYC doesn't have Albertsons or Sprouts. Wegmans is a good alternative.

[@highcarbregenerator]

I haven't really noticed wf to be that expensive, some things yes but overall.

[@Atheria444]

@@jonathanr5184 Well, I refuse to pay $2 for an apple. Yes, WFM has some more affordable (their own brand) items, but overall it's pricey.
