Insulin Resistance Symptoms (CAN'T Lose Weight? THIS Is WHY!) 2022

[@HealthCoachKait]

How many of these symptoms do you have?

[@claudia5908]

I have skin tags. I was told that they were hormonal. I was able to lose 16 lbs. Now I plateau. I was hoping to lose to more lbs.

[@Aurora-qn2dx]

My symptoms are extreme fatigue..thirst and exsessive water drinking( what friends noticed as not normal) ,dark skin patches and sugar cravings even during a meal..weight gain.

[@HealthCoachKait]

Claudia S hormonal could mean from insulin. Kudos on the 16lb lose! Depending on how much you have to lose weight loss can slow down over time.

@Don Bot Please get your daughter seen by her doctor. In the meantime, track exactly how many OUNCESs of water and any other liquid she is drinking, and the TIMEs she drinks. Also, track when she URINATES, and an estimate of how much. (Example: Slightly urinated, Diaper Soaked, etc). Just a day or 2 of tracking this should be good information for her doctor. Type 1 diabetes (juvenile diabetes) is very serious. Please don't wait. God bless!

IR causes the body to retain more sodium, but the sodium is not the problem. For most people, once they become metabolically healthy they do not retain water when they consume the same amount of sodium.

[@trusound170]

My doctor told me, "You're FINE! NO sign of diabetes!" My HBA1C was literally just ONE point away from the "orange" zone. Which would be prediabetes. I knew better, so I took it into my own hands. I check my HBA1C at home every 3 months, check my blood sugar regularly and have taken dietary improvement measures. ***EDIT*** Because the question is frequent in the comment thread I will add this. If you would like to check your HBA1C (AKA A1C call it which ever you choose here, they are the same thing) levels at home you can usually find the test kits at the drug store. I usually order from CVS. These come in a two pack. Everlywell has one more expensive and takes much longer to get results as it is mailed in. No matter the HBA1C (or A1C) test kit you use please be sure to follow directions EXACTLY so that you may get the most accurate results. If you want to keep a more regular check on your blood sugars you can also purchase a meter as well as the lancets and test strips. This can be a very good tool to check your progress as well as you make dietary changes. If you have an HSA account with your insurance you can usually use that to purchase these items. Just be sure to check the list of approved expenses beforehand. I check my fasting blood sugar daily. At the start it was between 110 and 119. Now it is usually between 89 and 105, with the majority of the readings being under 100. My starting HBA1C (A1C) was 5.5 and rose to a 5.7, which is when I began taking matters into my own hands at home since the doctor didn't see this as an issue. I hope this info is helpful.

[@HealthCoachKait]

That aside, I don't know what stores you have in your area, but CVS has a two pack of the HBA1C tests. Just be sure to follow the directions exactly. Also you can order from varying other sites. I also have a glucose meter. From time to time I check my glucose in the morning while fasting, but also after a carb heavy meal or snack to see what how I'm doing in that regard. I have come a very long way doing this. Best of luck and health to you!

[@Lisdexia]

I was diagnosed with this a few weeks back but turns out I've had fairly useless doctors as I've had symptoms for years (including when I was very slim - BMI of 19) but I always noticed that if I slacked off at all with eating/exercise I'd gain weight around my stomach but nowhere else. I changed jobs but still ate under my supposed metabolic weight but gained about 40kg in 4-5yrs (30 of that in 3yrs). Again doctors would always focus on my iron which was chronically low and just said regarding insulin to just eat well and exercise which I was doing... finally a doctor took it seriously and with no change to life style and just Metformin (because I have been eating well and exercising a lot) I've dropped 2kg in 2 weeks which I never could and just maintaining was hard. Thank you for more information as I never knew so many of the symptoms I've had for years but no one took me seriously

I have not checked all of you uploads, but I recommend talking about skinny fat people. I know quite a few people that are tiny - 100 to 120 lbs thereabouts - and have full on diabetes. They drink a lot of Starbucks, never seem to gain weight, can fit any outfit they choose, and are diabetic, on medication, have unknowingly high blood pressure or recently found out that they do, and look fit a a fiddle. I write this because people usually start with the height to weight ratio and pictures of overweight people, but that lulls people falsely into tuning out the rest of the message. SKINNY FAT, now that's a topic.

I have most of these symptoms and have had some of them for most of my life (60 yrs old). Even when I was skinny my hip to waist ratio was like a straight line. I've always had irregular periods if at all (no children) and I've had skin tags for at least 40 years. My body is constantly inflamed and I am in pain all day everyday. Last fall I started the keto to reduce the inflammation. It helps and I've lost 30lbs but, I am still in pain and my left foot still swells at the ankle and always hurts. How come no Dr ever told me that I may be insulin resistant when I was younger? I could have avoided all of this. It's as if the Drs want us to be sick.

[@cankerbloom9015]

The swollen ankles can also be contributed to due to endothelial damage from excess glucose leading to leaky blood vessel lining so more fluid is forced out into the interstitium and not returned via the lymphatics. Vascular insufficiency can also contribute

This is very helpful, I'm extremely skinny and struggle to gain weight, but I do have 9 of the symptoms I felt or seen myself without seeing a doctor. I also have yeast overgrowth problems in my stomach and developed aczema out of no where and depending on what I eat, it irritates it. I was on a special diet to help with the yeast problem but unfortunately I lost 10 pounds and my normal weight is 80 pounds, so I had to stop the diet to gain my weight back. I was born with hormonal problem that I inherited from my mom, we both produce high levels of testosterone. She was skinny like me when she was younger, I'm still small in my 40's but I also haven't had cancers, gallbladder/kidney stones, or nor have children of my own, so I look extremely young and healthy looking when in truth been struggling since birth with health problems.

Have you ever looked into high liver enzymes. I am a heavy drinker and got diagnosed with high liver enzymes. Obviously, my doctor said quit drinking. I didn't until my liver enzymes hit over 400. I stopped drinking for about a month and got rechecked. Well, they dropped 5 points. A couple years ago, I decided to change my lifestyle because of my arthritis. I went on a low carb diet and still drink heavy but my liver enzymes are at normal range. 14 years after be diagnosed, with the help of Dr. Bikman, I have normal liver enzymes.

I love you! I needed your channel . I am struggling with insulin resistance and pcos. I have frequent urination, hormonal acne, skinny with a pouch, dark armpits slightly, irregular cycle, more hair on my upper lip than I would like. I have been struggling for YEARS. It’s all starting to make sense on what I need to change . I was vegan for a few years and ate only carbs, it messes me up . I’m back on eating proteins and will begin cleaning my diet more. I am excited and motivated to do so since I want to be the best version of myself. Can you help with loose skin videos ?

[@arrencybiey4021]

I have most of these symptoma n just started on IF and lowcarbs diet .I will be doing blood test again in few weeks .hope to see some improvement

This has nothing to do with this very informative video, but HCK looks better in braces than any other person I've ever seen. She's very cute. Thanks for sharing about IR.

[@sheriw9230]

Amazing how I have most of the symptoms, thanks for the insights.

[@HealthCoachKait]

My pleasure 🙏 These symptoms are all very common but most people do not realise the cause is IR!

[@SusanaXpeace2u]

I think being keto and then giving up on keto gave me insulin resistance. I put on two stone. Now I'm eating really healthily, not more than 1400 cals per day, all the right choices but I am not losing weight. Bmi 27 for about 4 months. It is not budging.

[@sitathisfeet5797]

Hi Kait, thanks for the informative video : ) Do you recommend seeing an endocrinologist about these symptoms?

[@nicoletierheimer3546]

I am pretty sure I am, but have been eating high fat and low carb and exercising and killing it. Down 7 lbs and continuing to go. I

[@HealthCoachKait]

Sounds like you’re headed in the right direction!

[@ericwarmath1091]

Confounders: being me to can cause frequent urination and therefore increased thirst. Being an older man can cause prostate issues that can in tease urination. Some medications also can mimic these symptoms.

[@feelsrestricted8322]

I have all of the symptoms except the swollen ankles! Yikes, gonna check out that other video you recommend

[@dporrasxtremeLS3]

Great Video. What do recommend for Non-Drug treatments, that work for numerous side effects?

[@christy7025]

Kait. Anything you can teach us about hair cycle growth when struggling with PCOS

[@marilynkhasnabish7407]

Ive had pcos for years! Even before being diabetic. My sugars are high but ive started to get my period a little more regularly despite being close to menopause.

[@HappilyCarnivore]

"... and addressing them with your doctor." LOL, that's really funny, because most doctors don't care if you have insulin resistance. Most doctors won't do a thing until you're pre-diabetic, and even then they don't really do anything.

[@HealthCoachKait]

😭😭

[@tammy707]

So true

[@jessicaalbright7429]

I have to say, maybe I’m lucky, but my doctor seems receptive to conversation around this.

[@tjadventures9163]

It is your body, take care of it.

[@HappilyCarnivore]

@@tjadventures9163 I never said I wasn't. I said doctors won't.

[@vibewithmicki2920]

Your a life saver
