I have to say...that this is exactly what I needed! This morning, I said enough excuses....After losing 87 pounds on Keto in 2016-2017, and getting to my ideal weight, I kept if off for a year....and then gained over half of it back in the last 2 years, because my relationship with food was/is still broken. This morning, I told God/Universe that I'd do whatever it takes to get this right for the rest of my life and fix this for good...and next thing I know....I found your videos. Thank you for sharing, and I'm in! I'm doing this. I might be in the corner in a few days crying and shaking like a heroin attic in withdrawal...but I'm doing this! No more excuses!

Hello Brother, I have been listening to several of your videos and dabbling with Keto but making no progress. This evening I even followed one of your chaffle videos and made my first chaffle! I've been home on oxygen for two months because I nearly died with blood clotts in both lungs. I've struggled with obesity most of my life and currently weigh 450#. I started to loose hope and have been praying and asking God for help. While eating chaffles I saw your 6 part series on your change and here I am. I believe that you and your story are in answer to my calling out for help. Thanks to you for sharing your life and experiences. May The Lord bless you on your journey, and may you continue to bless the lives of others. Love you Brother.

@@SeriousKeto Steve, thanks for the support and encouragement. Wondering if you have any insight or thoughts to share. Since doing Keto for the last 3 1/2 months, I have noticed my Keto Mojo numbers are all over the place. My numbers where high in the beginning (2.5-3.5) which seems to be normal as your body starts to adapt to producing ketones. In the last month I'm getting much lower numbers. I have started testing before meals to see if I can identify a pattern. I am getting low numbers before a meal as am usually between .02 - .08. I then wait an hour or two after the meal and test again. Those numbers are usually much higher on average (Between 1.5-2.0). I'm convinced that I'm over thinking it and should stop focusing on monitoring my ketones. I seem to be still loosing weight at a rate of 2 lbs per week. I'm just trying to learn and better understand the change in your body's efficiency in producing ketones and how those levels change as you continue to work the Keto diet over time. Especially when working in a IF day or two. There is a lot of info out there and some conflicting data being shared. Net/Net I shouldn't worry about it so much as long as I know I'm in ketosis and I'm loosing weight. Any insight would be most helpful. Thank you!
@SeriousKeto4 жыл бұрын
James Allen I test at roughly the same time every morning. Like you, my numbers earlier in my keto journey were higher. Now, I only seem to go over 1.5 if I’m fasting more than a day. I don’t get hung up on “optimal ketosis” vs “nutritional ketosis”. If you’re feeling great and the pounds are coming off, I wouldn’t worry about it.

I went gluten free 2 months prior to starting keto, best thing I ever did. Lactose & lectin intolerance practically start to vanish after a couple weeks on keto. Intestinal gas stopped, carbs were the problem. Blood pressure dropped 40 points. Now, most significant improvement, need to empty bladder in the middle of the night, a least twice if not more, NO more. 3 weeks keto & taking vitamine D3 & K2 decalcification of soft tissues was happening. Get one morning, & had to look at my watch 2 or 3 times, while emptying bladder, yep, one very long time, it's like being 16 again. I'm 48 years of age, this is still improving. Now eyesight... might need less prescription, something is changing. Potatoes? Those were a month ago, I stopped them totally, & I don't miss them. Rice & pasta, went with them. I will never depend on those 3 again. Like 💖 this presentation, gut biome, yes, important factor. Gut healing? Bone broth, collagen, a must! Thankyou for grassroots honesty.🗽👍

It takes me about 4 days on a potato hack (basically what you did) to get into ketosis. You can feel the extra energy that comes. I tested in on my keto mojo and sure enough - ketosis. Once you use up the calories from the potatoes your body relies on fat, since it's not really possible to eat enough potatoes to keep up with your daily nutrition requirements.

Your story is so close to mine its crazy. I hit 278LBS in April and acid reflux+heart burn every night, Sweating while cooking or walking to car ect.... When I got my picture taken with a Star i liked. I noticed my size and I said. NO MORE. Time to change. So I did research and when i heard about Keto and you could eat meat and bacon and loose weight. That sounded amazing to me as I ate alot of meat and rarely veggies. So Did more research and realized that their is 2 types. Clean and Dirty Keto and most people recommended Dirty to start so it would be easier to change and stick with it and slowly change to a cleaner keto style later when the body and cravings are more controlled. First week I lost 14lbs. Knowing that after it would dramaticly slow down but to a more healthy and natural weight loss so i started loosing 1-2lbs a week after. After 8 months I am sitting at 211LBS with 67LBS Lost. And rarely do excerise (other than work and some walks sometimes). The more i watch videos from people like Keto Connect and You ect.... The more ideas I get. Sometimes I go more healthy so fattier meats, don't use Vegetable oils anymore as they are unhealthy, Dark Yolk Brown Eggs as they taste so much different and I like them ect... So I am currently in a Mix of Dirty/Clean Keto and loving it and finding it easy to stick with. Only cheated (went off the plan) for 1 day this summer at my 3 month mark to celebrate 3 months of weight loss and that it was Calgary Stampede so had to have a bunch of sweet, fatty treats all day lol. And now near my 9 Month mark doing cheat number 2 which is only because I really want Mashed Potatoes and real Stuffing with my turkey as Calliflower mashed ect... is good for regular meals but not fancy like Xmas dinner so ill splurge for the day then go back to keto to continue as my goal is to loose another 45lbs. But the biggest changes I notcied after 1 month. Was NO HEARTBURN or Acid Reflux since i started Keto. And i have Spicy peperoni and hot wings all the time now and NOTHING :D. My Diverticulosis hasnt acted up since i started which my doctor told me that weight was probably what was causing the attacks. I feel more Energy and happier with myself. It has been a great journey and will be continuing this. I even started calling this a Lifestyle instead of a Diet. Because its something you can go out of on the occasion as long as you still love doing keto most of the time. For me ill be mostly just Keto till i get to my main goal so 20g carb a day and maybe increase that to 50g or what my body will keep me in ketosis to maintain after i reached my goal. Thank you for your videos as they help greatly with my LIFESTYLE. And great to hear your struggle and successes with your journey as they are so similar to mine.

Thanks so much for sharing Steve. When I first started in May I had already lost around 40 of the 70+ lbs lbs I had gained with my son (he’s 20 months). When I first started I watched the big gurus.... Dr Berg, T.D., Keto Connect etc. Since then I’ve lost the other 30+another 10 am in maintenance mode around 125-127; maybe another 5 or 10 to go but this is a lifestyle - I don’t mind if it takes a while! I still weight myself every day and though I don’t use a spreadsheet I use the weight guru app with my scale which is interesting to track progress and see what affects you. Point being - since I’ve gone into maintenance I’ve dialed back the YT videos and I’m so glad I’ve come across you. Any time I see you’ve uploads I watch it right away if I can. It’s great to see someone like you who does this as more of a passion project; someone who is a real person living his life and documenting what has worked for you. I also love the cooking inspiration - I love to cook and have a ridiculous amount of cooing gadgetry (if you ever feel like breaking out your sous vide (I think you mentioned having one before?) I’ll be right there with you!

Thanks for the rec about Presto Steve! I have been looking for a 'sign' to change as well and think your vids have really kicked me into gear. I am going to try the potato challenge for 3 days to start tomorrow!

Thank you so much. My recommendation is that if you're going to do the "potato fast", do it for 2 weeks. You'll lose a pretty good chunk of weight while simultaneous re-booting your taste buds (and possibly gut microbiome).

I’m laughing out loud as I always say ,” I love potatoes” and just can’t believe I’m living without them. Never until I heard this did I realize I don’t really love potatoes I love what we do with them! - snort! imagine that!!!! Loved this revelation!!!!!

@SeriousKeto4 жыл бұрын
Thank you. Going vegan (only for 8 weeks), was an important step for me because it got me to appreciate the vegetables that would wind up being an important component of my keto lifestyle (and that I honestly should be part of most any dietary lifestyle).

Thank you for parts one to three, a very interesting and compelling experience. I've lost almost 95lbs, slowly and seemingly thus far no disturbing side affects so I consider myself very lucky. You're so lucky you discovered a methodology that was readily adapted and works, I am genuinely glad good fortune and healthful benefits continue to flow. Thank you for sharing your life-changing journey, major transitions be they psychological, physical and lifestyle are a moment by moment undertaking - at least for me, not that easy but with sufficient motivation very achievable and readily maintained. Totally, one's point of view regarding food - it's consumption and underlying thinking certainly requires honest review, analysis and remedial action. Re-framing one's attitudinal frame of reference isn't an overnight thing, there's no quick fix. It's like a 360-degree turnaround to food, physicality and I'd venture to suggest even spirituality - and - water. For me, my journey's been not only about rethinking food, exercise but also my water consumption. I'm grateful I've an opportunity to turnaround my health and well being, grateful too for the opportunity this platform affords in providing stories like yours that reinforce positive healing, in no small way a myriad support for personal resolve in ameliorating obesity and it's significant impacts.

I am enjoying listening to your journey. I have lost and gained 80 lbs and yo yo back and forth so much it is exhausting. Looking for inspiration to pick up the pieces and try again, as I know that I am leading myself up to health problems as I get older. Just turned 40 this week, and fortunately haven't been affected by diabetes, hypertension, or high cholesterol. I have so much discipline for so many areas of my life, but my weight is an Achilles heel that I can't master. Thanks for giving us "normal people" hope and direction. Hopefully THIS TIME will lead to sustained results...

I came across this channel while learning about keto for my girlfriend’s sake (she’s Type 2 diabetic). I’ve been watching bunches of the vids and this one had me laughing. I don’t eat keto, and was a vegan for thirty years. Eating plain potatoes is fine by me. 🙂 I live very differently from most folks, off-grid in northern Maine. Been living outside since last May, and cooking over a fire if I cook. Everything takes a long time. When I eat, I eat a lot, just to stay warm. A pound or two of potatoes is nothing. My GF and I are going to homestead together, and I raise livestock so she can eat keto and be healthy. We’ll see what kind of changes we both undergo. I know one thing that’ll make a huge difference for her: the sheer amount of manual labor involved in a subsistence life. Drawing water, walking to town, shoveling snow, swinging a scythe, riding a horse. Everything is work. Anyways, highly enjoyed the video, and learning a lot. Looking forward to supporting my beloved in her health journey.

Sounds like giving your gut a break healed your gut. I managed to heal my gut through fasting. Giving your gut a break from eating all sorts of things that aren't good for you can make an incredible difference. While I don't really eat potatoes, they are far better than most things we eat, though I would advise against that sort of diet if you're diabetic. Glad to hear it worked for you though.

I've been watching your channel for awhile, your one of the few people that come across as a real person to me...sometimes when you tell us about your fallbacks it's more helpful because always own it and get back on track, while telling us the reasons for slipping and then how you got back on track.....👍✌️

I'm with you in that it can be kind of hard to relate to some of the keto folks on KZbin. I've definitely learned a ton from them, but I'm still a "foodie" and want to enjoy this lifestyle -- so occasionally, my keto is a little "dirty". I've cleaned it up a bit from when I started...
