WHAT IS THE ANABOLIC DIET? | ANABOLIC 101 | NICOLE BURGESS ANABOLIC DIET

[@NicoleBurgess]

Any questions I didn't cover for a future video?? Drop them here👇👇😁😁

[@Loverules269]

Do you recommend eating more protein than carbs every time you eat a meal or a snack? Do you find yourself craving more sweet tasting foods with the anabolic diet? What do you eat that keeps you "regular" or do you have to take something? Sorry if that's too personal. The higher protein diet makes me constipated. I have to take Miralax daily and looking to find something better

[@Itsme-eo5sw]

You haven’t mentioned any of the inflammation from the carbs and sugar and bad oils. I’m scared of the inflammation coming back. Thoughts on that?

[@LucyGooseyVault33]

Part 2 please! How many carbs is allowed with the annabolic diet?

[@LucyGooseyVault33]

@@Loverules269 I know you’re asking her but the registered dietitian I went to told me I need to eat fiber rich foods it’s what helps you be regular because I had this issue as a Bariatric patient they teach us protein protein but I went to a separate registered dietitian who wasn’t involved with the bariatric program and she told me you have to eat berries and veggies that are rich in fiber and she very much stressed the berries. It has helped a lot and berries are keto approved a lot of people don’t know that but I researched it. Also I’m interested in this because like she said I shouldn’t feel guilty eating carbs from veggies and fruits it’s not that same as eating cookies and donuts imo. Anyway I hope this helps oh and for reference I was only able to go once a week before I added berries and veggies.

[@Loverules269]

@@LucyGooseyVault33 thank you! I have been eating more berries in the past few months, strawberries and or blueberries daily and I started taking sugar free metamucil every morning which has helped. I was doing optavia for 7 months and it wreaked havoc on my digestive system. I was having to take miralax daily and I believe my body got used to it . I'm just now finally regular again

Watched this months ago when you first posted it when i was more strict keto, but came to it again cuz I've been slowly adding in more healthy carbs and lowering the fat intake and although i watch every video you post, i wanted to revisit this old *anabolic 101 video* to see how to really start incorporating it.

OMG, l love Anabolic and Keto. But, Anabolic made me realize that calories in and calories out is what’s important. I can eat more and just keep myself moving. It’s so great.

[@msshaysishshow2882]

Girl, I am getting back into deficit eating. I went for a "run" on Sunday & that was a huge no. BUT ok, baby steps to start out, instead of a 5 mile run, start with a walk, then a longer walk, then longer; pick up the pace and before I know it I'll be running again! But I've lost 4 pounds so far! Winning!

[@NicoleBurgess]

Love this attitude and yes girl...each day you put work in...you will see results!!!

[@babybugtoo]

New subscriber here... So glad that KZbin suggested your channel! My husband and I are transitioning into a more anabolic lifestyle. I've lost a lot of muscle mass in the last few years due to metabolic changes, medication and poor life choices. Husband has trouble maintaining keto and it's just not as economically adaptable. I lost 150 lbs on keto (yeah, I REALLY let myself go) and don't think I could have done it any other way but it's time to change. The most important change that I've made is increasing my activity level. When you feel better, it makes a transition easier on the mind and body. The main problem I'm having now is getting meal planning to get enough calories and protein without going overboard. It seems that I don't have a "happy medium". Working on it...

[@ketolifestyling7297]

Question: is there a science behind ‘anabolic?’ Curious why its not just called high protein diet. Like how Ketosis works for eating low carb. Curious if the anabolic diet has metabolic changes. There’s not much information about it online. Thank you for all the great content! 💕 i had been waiting for this video!

Nicole, can you help someone who has had Gastric Sleeve surgery? I’m 7 months out and I’m leaning towards Keto but I’m concerned about the fat and would like to try anabolic because it’s more realistic long term, however, I can’t eat the volumes needed.

[@Mrs.PerfectlyImperfectKeto]

Thanks for this video. I fell off track with keto last year when my father passed away. I had just hit my 2 yr keto anniversary at that time too. It's been so difficult getting on track with keto again bc I feel like limiting the foods is causing me to gain an eating disorder. I'll have to look into anabolic some more. I would love a 2nd video

[@Elizabeth-rh1hl]

I tried keto and found that my skin became very fragile. Even with the smallest bump my skin would tear and bruise. A month after I stopped keto my skin returned to normal. It was frustrating because I wanted to lose weight and improve my health. Maybe the anabolic diet would be better for me.

You mentioned calculators and you also do personal macro calculations. I have done both (online and used a person) and then went to get a dexa/bmr scan. My macros via the computer were about 800 to 1000 more than the calculators. Is there a reason for that?

[@cryptidcute]

I might have to make the switch! It feels weird to say this but I NEED my period back. My doctor said it will as my weight becomes more stable and its natural after losing so much. Still feels strange though!

[@NicoleBurgess]

As women, we need certain macronutrients for balanced hormones! I don't feel like restricting ANY food for a long amount of time is healthy. All in moderation & knowing how to fuel your body the right way with food!

You're still not eating added sugars. The only sugars you are consuming is from Whole Foods carbohydrates. If you are diabetic or have issues with blood sugar...I would start with the ketogenic diet.

I don’t buy calories in calories out always. Last time I gained 15 lbs it was due to only 900 calories a day of sugars. Starbucks all day and muffins. I burn more than 900 calories a day but gained weight.

Well, like I mentioned you could do that but it's most definitely not healthy and if you aren't super active, that sugar will stick💯

Hi Nicole! I had been doing Keto for a year and just recently been doing more low carb but still only keto foods. I had starting running in the spring and have upped how many miles I run. I'm consistently running every other day and I have at least one day a week I run over 13 miles. I also workout on my elliptical on my non running days with lighter weights for now. For the last month I have had trouble with never feeling full and I keep wanting to eat. Do you think it would be more beneficial for me to switch to anabolic to feel full since I workout so much?

[@NicoleBurgess]

Sounds like you are more active than you once were & you're body is responding. Hunger usually means that you aren't eating enough due to your activity OR you're in a pretty large caloric deficit if cutting. You may want to up your calories a tad with what you're currently doing & see if that helps first

I keep hearing anabolic is only for gaining muscle. Can you lose fat with anabolic? Weight is now normal but still have a lot of body fat

[@Itsme-eo5sw]

So I literally just heard you mention this in your video as I was typing it 😬

[@ElizabethDiaz-zr5ki]

I do notice that the lower the carbs are, the fuller you feel. When I was doing keto, I often just felt too full to eat anything. It killed my appetite. In my opinion, this is a benefit if you tend to eat compulsively. Keto is a good way to jump start into eating less. However, I do think it can be hard to maintain long term, because going in and out of ketosis if you eat carbs on occasion is just not helpful long term. I do think for keto you really need to make a commitment and stick to it. Which can be hard, depending on your overall life circumstances.
