The ketogenic way of eating is a very powerful way of eating that can reverse chronic disease and move you towards your ideal body weight. But, when you first start, it can be a little confusing. Best to learn the 7 biggest keto mistakes from me, than to commit them yourself.
By doing keto correctly you can return your body to the good health it was intended to have. Sadly, there are many different opinions of what you should and should not do. I want you to have success and happiness on your health journey and so I made this video for you. Please apply its principles, and share it with a friend because so many people are confused.
If you are not making the progress you expected with keto it is quite likely you are making one or more of the mistakes I discuss in this video. Better to learn now so you can keep your progress going. When people see your progress and ask, "What are you doing?" you will be able to tell them the proper path to take.

Ive adapted this to my lifestyle boy i never felt so good. Im at the point where i have to force myself to eat because i dont be hungry. And the reason why i force myself to eat is because i workout I want to maintain My muscle mass. When people ask me whats my diet. I say i follow a Keto/flexiterian diet meaning. I'm keto and im flexible with meat. Somedays ill eat meat some days i won't and substitute with seafood or not meat period. I cant cut out meat completely, im from the islands n i love oxtails, chicken, pork, lamp, goat n etc. The coolest thing about this, i can stand in a room full of donuts pizza and junk food for hours and not be tempted. All i say is omg i remember when i use to eat that and laugh right after.

[@macylouwho1187]

I’ve been doing this diet only one single week and I can already feel a vast difference in how I feel inside of my body. I feel “better”. My stomach is not as bloated or full, it is going down already and I can bend down easier, I feel lighter, and yet I have NOT BEEN HUNGRY or felt deprived of food. Another thing that I noticed is that I used to race for breakfast food in the morning and not be able to last long into the morning without eating something. On this particular way of eating, I can easily make it to lunch time without eating a single thing and I am NOT feeling starved or getting a headache from lack of food. I do drink plenty of non sweet liquids until lunch time though. Eating a meaty/cheese meal at supper time with a huge portion of veggies (also with cheese) is keeping me full for hours on end, all through the night and all through half the next day. So there’s my intermittent fast that puts me in ketosis. And I’m not finding it necessary to snack hardly at all so far. These food combinations keep you FULL. You don’t get peckish and want to graze on junk food. I am very hopeful this will work out. I’m loving this so far and feeling very satisfied with my hunger levels throughout the day. What’s best is I actually like what I’m eating and I’m not starving. So yay!

[@ivydickson7596]

Me too and I will be 70 this year. Have only been doing it a few weeks. Already on omad, just don't feel the hunger.

[@StuUngar]

Same here. Ive had multiple people tell me Ive lost weight when Ive only lost a few lbs and it shouldnt be noticeable. My weakness is sugary drinks like juice and fruit punch. I noticed gatorade has lower sugar than many other drinks and I cant stand diet drinks. So I allowed myself 1/3 of a gatorade bottle per day to stave off sugar cravings, which were intense. But those sugar cravings have largely subsided. I still like my sugary drinks, so Ill drink half a bottle once or twice a week. But like you, I feel better than I have in a long time. Quitting alcohol completely has definitely helped im sure.

[@jomama55ful]

Keep it up. I've been doing this for about a year. I've lost 65 pounds, feel great and agree with everything you said. I eat one meal a day. (OMAD). I don't feel hungry between meals. So many metabolic issues have simply gone away. I cannot sing the praises of Keto enough. I finally got my wife on it a little over a month ago. Already I am buying new clothes for her and I'm loving it!). 16 pounds down in a month an a half. She used to be starving by breakfast and needed snacks to keep her going. Definitely Insulin resistant. She is also reporting that her hunger is gone, she has fewer night time pees, her sinuses cleared up (crhonic for years), and she loves what the diet is doing to her body. She has a long way to go, of course, as years of insulin resistance have had their effects. The trend is positive, and she is a believer now. Seeing my results were one thing, but seeing it for herself, on her own body, was the clincher... Time to go shopping for clothes again... :D

That's wonderful - congrats! I wish I had energy. I'm tired all the time. (UPDATE: Dec 27, 2021 a large chunk of my fatigue was relieved in 1 day when I stopped eating egg yolks! Been supplementing with niacin & other Bs. Food intolerances, like eggs and pork, just drained me. What a difference!) I've been eating keto+IF since July 2020, then started eating ketovore in Sept 2020. I lost 8 pounds in the first two months and have much less joint pain. But I really looked forward to more energy and that hasn't happened yet (food intolerances). I'm 64 female, 5'4" with about 15-20 (now 10#) pounds to lose. Oh, and I have a hard time getting sufficient potassium. Already supplement with 3000mg KCL per day! I started eating paleo in 2012, but my metabolism is slow. Been reading ALL the books. Since I started taking Lugol's 2% IODINE (about 5 weeks now), I've been sleeping much better!

I hate to excercise though, I feel like I'm burning energy I could use cleaning my yard, house, doing stuff....I refuse to weight myself till this summer, I think I'll have lost at least 10 lbs since last September, my clothes fit better so I'll never go back to eating the diet (SAD), that gave me type 2.

I have lost 4 lbs (water weight but still losing inches due to decreased inflammation) a win. The intense carb cravings are gone. I am telling everyone I know about it, have been doing so much research that now my husband lovingly sighs with a small eye roll everytime I say the word Keto. Inspite of all the positive effects I still feel slightly nervous everytime I add butter, cheese or full fat anything to a dish it has been so firmly ingrained in the psyche that it's a mini struggle. But the health effects especially my blood glucose levels (type 2 diabetic) really keeps me going. I think it's almost criminal the lies that have been told and I wouldn't be surprised to find out they were fueled by Big Pharma to keep people sick.

Dr. Berg videos are great too, and there are other KZbin channels that focus on various aspects of keto and health. Dr. Fung is one; Thomas DeLauer is one; Headbanger's Kitchen for the recipes; KetoConnect for the average guy wondering and researching about keto kinds of things, and I'm sure there are lots more. Education is the key. Dr. Berg's approach: you don't "lose weight to get healthy," you get healthy FIRST and then you lose the weight. A healthy body cannot hold on to excess weight. It's so exciting to see all of this excellent health care education available to us for free on KZbin and thank you, Dr. Berry!

I so agree. Everyone loses at a different rate, even on the best diet for their bodies. And everyone's nutritional needs might be a little different.

My keto plate may look way different than yours. And that's ok, if we're each eating exactly what our bodies are asking for. No need to compare to anyone else...only compare where we are to where we were before we started.

About doing it alone, it's hard because 90% of your environment will judge you, especially when you start getting some visible results! I actually found motivation and strength in that! The most judgemental person was "friend" that denies her bulimia, even if you catch her vomiting. Family was concerned, but accepted my choice, and tried to adjust meals to my preference. Coworkers were the funniest, they were curious what I have for my meal, an and were inspired to change there eating habits by bringing home prepared meals instead of bakery "food". So I think that my decision to try something goods for my self, had some benefits for my environment! So if anyone considers to try this lifestyle, I encourage them to try for six months, and try to do thay best. Then you will see how this lifestyle effects you and your surrounding, and is this for you or not.

When I did, I was active, worked, could cook right. Now it hurts to shop, stand to cook clean etc. I used to be able to ride motorcycles through the Yukon to alaska & all over the US. All within reason of course. But now, no. So please, wish me luck. It's more than just inflation, but it's a start to lower that.

This is one of the most fantastic video I ever saw. Not only the content is very good, the way it was delivered with conviction, really feel nice. Thank you

I appreciate you so much. About 60 days ago I started a new health challenge. I quit coffee and sugar. I started eating bacon every day and I put a small teaspoon of bacon grease in my morning hot tea with a scoop of collagen powder . It brought such mental clarity. My eyes are no longer dry. I have eaten a keto diet for a couple of years. The addition of bacon and bacon fat has been a welcome addition. I am never hungry. Thank you so much for your common sense approach to health and food. The quality of life is top priority. At 74 yrs old it is "Great"

Excellent for newbies. I've given links to this. We have to unlearn a lot of crap. Thanks, Dr. Berry

Thank you, first for being a wealth of knowledge but also that you share it!

Going it alone!... you are spot on with that. Everybody tries to convince me that it is dangerous. I've had the "fat causes heart disease" discussion so many times.

I’ve only been on this diet for just over a week and already loving it. Eating more fats make me feel full longer so snacking isn’t even an issue for me and my blood sugar and weight continue to drop and I feel great and I haven’t even added exercise yet.

Yay! Same for me.

You can do it!

My sympathy for your loss

[@jenh9232]

I'm finding it helpful to do intermittent fasting while beginning this lifestyle change, as it's giving me time to gather information and not jump head first into keto bars, keto recipes, fats, proteins without really understanding what this all means.

I like this guy. He doesn't gum up the talk with too much detail. His level of detail is just right, and it gets the point across well.

Thank you Dr.Berry, I'm going to start now with your advice. So far the best advice. Will come back here to say thank you when complete
