Wow keep it going! Im trying to get my parents into fastting thanks to dr Fung and my mum lost same amount of weight too

😅

How long did you fasted, what did you eat and did you exercise. I ve diagnosed with pre-diabetes, i used to eat cake everyday like 10" cake in 2 days by myself. Hard to give it up, so planning to healthy eating for 4 days and friday and weekend i have a serve of cake. I do exercise, like min 200mins a week. Tell us everything you do for that result.

Lily Chau I can tell you what I did. Been doing keto for two years with time restricted feeding. I used to do 16 to 22 hours a day now I’m down to about 12 to 14. Lost all the weight I needed and I’m holding at my present wait for six months and eat whatever I want. Just no sugar very minimal carbs and definitely no starch. I’ve lost 35 pounds and I wasn’t fat if you looked at me but around my waist was where everything accumulated. I lost 6 inches off my waist I’m down to the waist I had in my 20s. I’m down to the weigh I was in my 20s. No longer diabetic no longer have high blood pressure and no longer have acid reflux. My energy levels came back and I was able to start lifting weights and play tennis and hiking. When you do the keto diet within a few weeks you lose that hunger to eat all the time. That’s when intermittent fasting or time restricted fasting whatever you wanna call it works the best. One of the benefits of keto and intermittent fasting is you don’t lose muscle mass. Compared to say a vegan diet where you just start wasting away over the years unless you’re very vigorous on adding protein and keeping muscle. No amounts of sit ups and crunches could do what keto did for my waist line. I’m 68.

@@kicknadeadcat Wow!, that is an amazing 2 year journey you went through and i can't even stay on for 2 weeks. At the moment i try to healthy eating for 4 days, like vegie, fish, nut, unsweetened yogurt kind of stuff and no cakes. On the weekend i baked and 1 or 2 serving on cake a take instead half a cake like i used to be 2months ago. I do 16/8 or 18/6 fasting everyday. Hopefully this will make a slight change when i go for a blood testafter the lockdown released. So, what were you bsl and are you insulin dependent and now you are longer diabetic?. That is soooo amazing to hear and so inspiration. What exactly is keto, is it like vegies and no carb?. I like to follow simple and less preparation method.

@@lilychau1671 I'm a motivated person when I thought my health was becoming a factor I just did it and never looked back. Keto is a lifestyle not a diet. I would suggest you research it thoroughly. I suggest dr. Eric Westman of diet doctor or dr. Berg. There are many others. If you do it correctly in a week or 2 the urges for sweets and carbs will dissipate. You will need to take extra salt, potassium and magnesium In the beginning. You will lose a lot of water weight the 1st few weeks. To avoid the sugar withdrawals which come in the form of sluggishness and maybe even Headaches from losing those 3 minerals. I spent 2 months researching everything I could about it until I decided to do it. If you do it correctly, Your hunger will dissipate, in a couple of weeks you can start doing Intermittent fasting which will greatly increase your progress. That's my advice

@@lilychau1671 So is that: cake three days a week instead?

Congratulations! Me too!

🙌

Did you change your diet or ate the same?

“weight”

This is what I am doing right now! Dr Fung gives me so much motivation to keep fasting

LOL! Same here! But mostly when it is getting close to 48 hrs, then watching these videos gives extra motivation! Enough to get through those last hours!! ...

@@harryviking6347 ~Me too...have already lost some weight in ten days of fasting.🙂💞

Exactly, the same here. He is from big help!

Me too💖👌⭐

I started at 66 and I’m now 68. No longer diabetic no longer have high blood pressure no longer have acid reflux. I lost 6 inches off my waist and now between my weight and my waist, i’m the same size I was in my 20s.

wonderful news. i am half way there too. glad to hear you say it took 4 years.

Hb

Do you mind advising how much time did it take for you and how much was your weight before that?

@@sigmaxcc I started at 290 in June 2019. Stopped drinking and started strict keto. After a few weeks I could fast 24 hours very easily. (After all, it was only skipping lunch.) By September I was doing 36 hour fasts 2x per week and did my first 72 hour fast in October. By December I was at 190. Since then I have stayed on keto an strictly followed 16-8 with a weekly 36 hour fast. Every couple of months I do a 48 hour fast just to make sure I can still do it :-) I have stayed between 180 and 190. I can't tell you how great I feel. I'm 64 but feel 40 again! Good luck, you will be glad you did it!

@@alanreynoldson3913 Much appreciated. Thanks

Dan Karathanasis congrats! I want to try it but not sure how long to fast.. Did you fast daily ? How many hours? Any info on your success would be healthy .. Good for you!

How are you doing now (April 7, ‘22)? Hope all is well.

Like all addicts, one day at a time.

And?

Dr Nasha Winters is the expert on cancer as well. She’s on KZfaq too 😁

@@russelpacheco6296 Thanks. I will look into her.

Me too!!

Ditto 💖

Yessss! Too much knowledge to pass up.

Same!😊👍

SAME 😄🤣

Type 2 Reboot That is fantastic. You must be over the moon.

Great job

Wendy McGowan thank you. It has changed my life. I actually just launched a KZfaq channel to share my journey and try to help others 😊

@@type2reboot417 what is the name of your channel ? Thank you .

Congratulations. I am not diabetic, but at age 68 I lost 30 lbs. on this way of eating. My health is better and I will always eat this way. I am glad you were able to get off your medications.

I have asked some diabetics and they say oh I don’t have time to check what I can and cannot eat. Just give me the pill and I’m ok. 😒

I've got a T1D child and all I can say to anyone who is borderline: do everything in your power to avoid becoming dependent on external supplies of insulin.

Change is hard for some people, who are very set in their ways. My dad avoids changing anything, if he has a choice (things could get better, but they could also get worse…).

@@ilunabella Those people obviously don’t understand Diabetes, and most GP Doctor’s don’t either..

@@Celticcross688 that’s true.

No need as he always says eat until you are full during your eating window and of course nothing at all whilst you fast.

Same

A steak a day keeps the doctor away.....

Congrats on your awakening! Blessing and love to you.

I’m a writer and I’ve exchanged a few emails with him over the years. Incredibly humble man.

How long in to it did it take for you to not feel “sick and tired”? I’m one week in and feeling exhausted 😩 The first couple days felt clear minded and great. But now just want to sleep all day. Does it take a few weeks to really get in to the groove?

@@sedonarose7563 , I hope you are feeling better now . What level of fasting having you been doing?

@@jameskantor0459 looks like they did the ultimate fast and went to heaven...rip

Exactly

this knowledge isnt new, nothing new about it. why are people still fat? its not lack of knowledge mostly, they just dont wanna do it and give carbs away. simple as that

Pablo Dominguez How do we nominate them?

Darko Fit Coach I don’t agree. I was frustrated attempting to lose weight on low calorie diets; no success. Even though I’ve had great success with intermittent fasting & keto - my endocrinologist & nutritionist are both still skeptical and insist they need more studies. I just tell them I don’t agree & it’s my life.

@@msfrankie631 docs dont agree with anything that they dont benefit from. standard procedure. they would rather have us sick and overweight and in their ways then slim and healthy and happy doing it our own ways. who cares about what docs say anyway in regards to diet, they are 70yrs behind in science they still think eggs are bad and low sodium is the way to go lol. as for you, calorie deficit is the ONLY way to lose fat and bodyweight. just is. but most do it wrong and crash their metabolism. look at my channel for some tips i make daily vids on this stuff been in shape for over 20yrs now so i know how it works

What a perfect idea! They have made this so simple for us. I'm off of all but 2 meds. My inflammation is almost completely gone now and my memory and thinking ability are much better too. I no longer need any medication for joint or wrist pain because it's gone! And my weight is dropping too. My doctors are no help; these two are really lifesavers! 💚

Congratulations! Despite the billions that have been spent on prescription drug research, there has not been a pharmaceutical intervention that can drop blood sugar that dramatically as what you are able to do, and do so WITHOUT harmful side effects. You are living proof, along with countless others, that food is medicine.

Good job my friend, good job!

@unionjackess What is that?

Congratulations!!!

@@brandenbates2856 huge victory for you, be proud of yourself. look at Virta health they help people reverse their diabetes,the Drs on youtube are great and free, look at Dr Sarah hallberg's tedtalk, Dr Eric Westman, Dr Ken Berry talks about carnivore and low carb, he has great short videos on youtube, Dr Shaw Baker ( carnivore MeatRX), Dr Steve Phinney, look at Diet Doctor they have a website with recipes and a youtube channel. my AM glucose was 167 in May and yesterday it was 87..................i eat, steak, cheese, cream cheese, bacon, ground beef, sausage, eggs, butter, coffee, heavy cream, avocados, ghee, Redmond Real Salt, chicken tenders, sometimes i have cauliflower, asparagus, brussells sprouts. . i test my gluscose with a meter an hour and 2 hours after new meals to see if anything spikes my glucose. i found out tomatoes get my glucose high. you are on your way, just be careful since you are taking medication, the Virta Health Clinic does exactly that. My blood pressure was 88/74 this morning and its been like 134/94 since 2012 so no more medication. Megan Ramos and Jason Fung talk low carb and fasting, they have the Fasting Method on youtube, look at that also. best of luck to you. i eat once a day now, up at 6am have my 1 cup of coffee, 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, 1 tbsp Ghee ( walmart), Redmond real Salt (amazon) all mixed together and then i make sure to eat before 1pm. i started to get headaches int he AM and PM so i increase my salt and they are gone now. (you will learn as your insulin goes down you dont retain inflamatory fluid anymore so your kidneys flush out your sodium so you get headaches, look at Dr james DiNocolAntonio he talks with Dr Ken Berry about this) i eat High Fat and low to no carbs and Moderate protein. and i lost 10 lbs in 36 days. havings my Ribeye and 3 eggs with SALT and Butter very soon. Dr Paul Mason, Dr. David Unwin, Dr. Gary Fettke and Dr Bret Scher

I agree

try eating ketogenic carnivorous diet

which fasting method did you do? Thanks in advance for sharing

How much weight is so much weight 🤔😅? Newcastle seemed to notice about a 15% bodyweight change iirc, utilizing a very low calorie diet

Our systems prevent doctors from doing what they think is right and they create protocols to be followed by minions who obey rules

@@Handsoflight7766 Yes actually my Dr told me, he has to pass on the info-diet guidelines they are taught.

Wow! How lucky you are.

you a Torontonian? or do you have to travel? If Fung was my doctor I would have so many questions, my doctor is all for intermittent fasting, but she dosnt know much about it, and she freaks out when I do extended fasting

You are the luckiest person to have dr Fung as your nephrologist. I wish I could have opportunity to meet him once.

Hope you are doing great and please say hi to Dr. Fung from all of us. He's our hero!

All meat and dairy in North America and Europe is contaminated with "" prions "" ---> , Virus , bacteria , yeast , fungus , hormones .

Google ---- >""PRIONS and Alzheimer's disease" The " sewage sludge " and wastewater released into the farms and agriculture land are spreading brain disease far and wide every day. DR . Claudio Soto, PhD, professor of neurology at the "University of Texas" Medical School in Houston, and his colleagues confirmed the presence of prions in urine. Soto also confirmed that plants uptake prions and are infectious and deadly to those who consume the infected plants. Therefore, humans, wildlife and livestock are vulnerable to prion disease via plants grown on land treated with sewage sludge and reclaimed sewage water. "Prion" and Virus researcher "Dr. Joel Pedersen ", from the University of Wisconsin, found that prions become 680 times more infectious in certain soils. Pedersen also found that sewage treatment does not inactivate prions. Therefore, prions are lethal, mutating, migrating and multiplying everywhere sewage is dumped. “Our results suggest that if prions enter municipal wastewater treatment systems, most of the agent would bond to sewage sludge, survive anaerobic digestion, and be present in treated biosolids,” Pedersen said.

_Yes_

Though originally, I believe his goal was reversing DM II.

@Seal This is true but you have to factor in the fact that if you are type 2 diabetic and you're on a large dose of insulin you will have additional fat gain.

I'm wondering if fasting might help resolve my various food intolerances.

key is increasing your basal metabolic rate = having more muscle. i eat 3400cals a day and lose fat because i have lot of muscles. just doing caloric deficit is inevitable road to thyroid downregulation and being stuck in a corner and gaining LOTS of weight when upping calories again. high bmr is key!

Nature doesn’t make bad fat humans do. Stay away from hydrogenated oil‘s.

@@DarkoFitCoach I’ve had hypothyroidism for about 40 years.

@@kicknadeadcat Perhaps you missed the part where I said I never even switched from butter.

Were/are you on keto diet while IF?

🙏🏾 I always say this.. Fasting is cheat code for health and longevity

@jonavin Excellent comment

when you fast you realise its quicker to lose weight than gain it, just its 100x less fun xD

jonavin I couldn’t agree with you more!

@J Rose We did not evolve...

They've been trained incorrectly. If you haven't yet check out the work of Nina Teicholz. Her book is very good. I think the issue is that many of these doctors have been educated in the old way of doing things that was based on he research of Ansel Keys in the 50s. Because most doctors do not learn much about nutrition at all They succumb to calorie in, calorie out and other seemingly intuitive measures that don't actually work. It doesn't help our cause that there are advocates who go too far. Dr Fung doesn't. He acknowledges that carbs are delicious and should be eaten sometimes. When you go on a cruise you eat the cruise food and you enjoy it. Then you come home and you fast for 3 days and do some more intermittent fasting for a week to get rid of the junk in your system. Don't eat all the time, don't fast all the time. There is a time to be more rigid and there's a time to relax. I'm glad that you are doing well with this and continued good health.

Sorry, accidentally hit dislike. You are right. Where are the profits on selling high cost insulin!

LOL, you're so right.

You a right in what message you a giving to us. You a God sent angel to earth as a Doctor to help people like us. Love you from PNG

Now it's 155

And over weight with pimples on their faces

Can I eat a cheat meal here and there if I consistently fast? I haven't had a soda in a month....no biggy. Haven't had a beer in a month...no biggy. But I need a cheeseburger and fries in my life at least every once in a while.

That's 185 failed Nutritionists, who are losing their income ;-)

Textbook nutritionists, run of the mill family doctors, big pharma people, cereal companies, cookies and bread companies, Jenny Craig, etc and the list goes on and on.

Can ypu do intermittent fasting with hashimoto's? Not on any meds, thyroid levels are fine. Multiple nodules though

try a carnivorous ketogenic diet...best thing you will ever try...

"Decision fatigue". I like the phrase and I like that IF can give you a break from it.😁

In addition, design and implement a new curriculum and training program for medical doctors.

And police reform and industrial prison complexes

@@martinirving3824 that is very important!

@@Whatusay.89 , I think so. I don't hold much hope that it's going to happen any time soon. Far too much money being made with the status quo and current paradigm. Probably what needs to happen is a grass-roots push from younger people to seek holistic and functional doctors and just drive the business in that direction.

One has only to count the amount of advertisements during prime time network TV for drugs that “lower your A1C” to hypothesize the amount of money being made of keeping the status quo going.

How long did that take

Took about 6 months

16/8 IF every day

Did you have a snack in the afternoon? After school?

@@genxx2724 hi. I'm referring to summer but we Def had snack after school and dinner @ 5. I was raised by my retired grandparents so everything was very diligent

@@LoveLife-gv8jg 5:00 is so early. I remember that was considered a standard dinnertime in the ‘50s - ‘70s. How did you get through the night without eating? I wake up hungry in the middle of the night even if I eat a snack with fat before bed.

You must count calories while doing intermittent fasting to lose weight. You just must. I have been doing it for years, I even did 35 days salt water fast. Count calories be at 500 calories deficit based on you BMR.

Especially if it was a massage!
