One minute in and I have to write this....I am 67 and about 50 pounds overweight, have been almost all of my adult life. It's catching up with me. I have cut out almost all sugar, white stuff, and most snacking/processed foods. Looked in the mirror and came to the hard truth that I am a food addict. OK move forward. Six weeks and I have (only) lost five pounds. Want to throw the scale. Mind f*ck begins self sabotage, etc. Again. I watch these videos for motivation and education. "Even if you lose small amounts of weight you gain large health benefits". Just what I need to remember, every day. I will get there. Thanks.

I am in the same boat. 67 years old and overweight. Yesterday I was 'attempting' to mow the lawn and could hardly get back in the house before i collapsed. I am going to start walking the dog every day and see what happens. I have been fasting until noon every day but don't seem to be losing ANY weight. p.s. I noticed you don't have a 'selfie' pic either haha p.s.s. I was convinced my scale was broken so now have 3 broken scales.

I started doing a 6 hour window on when I can eat. It takes a 'hot moment' to start kicking in, but I am losing weight. The key for me is to cut out sugar. Also eat whole foods - avoid anything that has to have an ingredient list. I'm also using supplements. BTW, when you take the fat out of milk you're leaving behind a lot more sugar. Fat is less of a problem here than sugar is.

Fot the love of God, fasting IS NOT STARVING YOURSELF. We eat breakfast (break - fast) every morning to break the period of time when we’re not eating overnight. Usually fasting just refers to going for a period of time without eating and eating all of your calories in a shorter eating window (as opposed to eating around the clock, which causes a huge number of serious health problems.)

I have struggled for 12 years to lose weight losing and gaining again and again. We ate fairly healthy, but never seemed to find all the pieces. Until 2 months ago. 😊 I met a regenerative medical Dr. I have followed his plan. Which has been pretty easy, intermittent fasting (which I'd been doing for 6 months any way), eating 2 meals per day (been doing that too), cutting out all dairy, starchy vegetables, nuts, beans, pasta rice, potatoes. Allowing 2 equal servings of lean proteins, and vegetables and max 2 servings fresh fruit daily. Snacks:fresh veggies boiled eggs- are my free food. I rarely feel the need to snack. Minimum 64 oz water. I got to pick one day for a cheat meal to eat whatever I wanted no restrictions, just minding not over eating. To date I have lost over 20 lbs! I have had some mental ups and downs and felt I needed inspiration... I found your channel. 😊 I need a bit of guidance on meal prepping to assist making it easy to continue this journey. Thanks for sharing your journey!

I agree with people in the Mediterranean countries eat good, lots of seafood and lots of veg... and definitely some meat... but in my experience there's a very big difference, that you seem to miss. It's fresh. The avocado, olives, the lemon, orange etc has ripened on the tree. An avocado or cherry tomato from my friends garden, makes me feel great. If I buy an avocado (exactly 100g every time!). It comes from Chile or Peru, and makes me sluggish and even give me a rash at times. I think, it's highly important to eat what's local to you, clean and in season! The nutrional value is a game changer! Fish and seafood, the same, we have access to fresh, locally caught fish and shrimps, whatever is in season. Canned fish is mostly used for 'stews'. Fresh or frozen is absolutely preferred.

@@gregackerson5957 modern research doesn’t quite show this. There are benefits from nuts and seeds and veggies for gut microbiome. Also, the sugar in fruit is somewhat set-off by the fibre in them and also we can handle some sugar every day as our stomach and guts can turn up to about 35g of sugar a day into fat without sending it to the liver to overload and damage it. But eating processed sugar filled foods does the opposite and overloads the liver. Also the nuts and seeds, fruit and veg gives us loads of minerals and vitamins so from a nutrition standpoint it’s good to eat them. Meat maybe really good for us too but over farmed, non organic meat is crap for us, loaded with antibiotics and pesticides etc. need clean cut organic grass fed meat. All this makes sense right? For thousands of years humans ate mostly meat IF they could get it but also scavenged and ate fruit nuts seeds and veg! It’s our natural diet…. and probably loads of sea food!!

Let’s be clear that starving and fasting are two very different things. Starving is bad because it doesn’t allow you to burn stored fat like fasting does. Starving is eating very few calories which doesn’t give much fuel to burn. Fasting is consuming nothing at all for a given time which lowers your insulin so the body changes to burning stored fat.

That will be a stretch for me to eat a very small lunch with my larger meal for dinner. I have been eating my larger meal for lunch and a light dinner. Here on the Mediterranean, dinner rarely begins before eight in the evening and that is mostly spent socializing when you are not on your own. The actual eating rarely commences before nine and it is never rushed. There is also the issue of alcohol. My village (population: 700) has 23 wine caves. There are many more in nearby villages. I do allow myself 2-3 glasses of red wine a week. Our village meal are resplendent with carafes of water and juice for those who prefer. Fortunately, when I make up my mind, I am halfway there.

Can disease prevent weight loss? I am intermittent fasting for about 16 hours for about three weeks now. I am on one of those very restrictive diets, and only eat salad for lunch, and dinner about seven. I walk and sometimes I am losing a pound a day. But other days, I actually gain a pound or even two!! I don’t stress if I don’t lose, but gaining is difficult to swallow. (No pun intended). I’m 75 years young and I want to lose about another 15 to 20 pounds.

I don't believe one style of eating / dieting fits everyone because our bodies are unique. For example, my husband loses weight quicker by exercising and sweating a lot, I lose weight quicker by fasting. I think drinking clean water, eating whole foods, moderate exercise, adequate sleep, and reducing stress are the basic principles that benefit everyone, but within that framework, we have to try different things to see what works. Be encouraged --- you can do it!👍👍 (Also on another channel the doctor recommended drinking a cup of green tea with lemon juice and no sweetener 1 hour before going to bed. Someone responded that they tried it and it worked, that they lost 4 pounds in 8 days.)

Think one of the problems may be, withdrawals from processed foods, sugars, chemicals and whatever else is in the foods that most people have been raised on or eating most of their life. It's like a drug addict trying to just quit cold turkey. There's something going on when trying to lose weight, you are having withdrawals & symptoms of real cravings, and lost of control. Have seen people go through these moments, their demeanor changes, their mean, they want food, just like a heroine addict, but it's Doritos or McDonald's. 😶🧐

Spot on! No one has said this! My sentiment entirely. It’s cravings not hunger when you are someone who eats processed food. One just has to go on a keto diet to understand the difference. I was constantly craving and never satisfied on a so-called normal diet. I got to the stage I hated food due to the weight gain. On keto I lost weight, have no more cravings, (therefore fasting is easy) and I appreciate my food more. You are right high sugar carbs are addictive. I read a great adage once: “you’ll never get enough of what you don’t want” And that’s what it’s like on a processed diet!

Processed foood probably have hidden chemicals to make you hooked hence the addiction so when you quit eating it your gonna go through some withdrawals since your dopamine reward system not getting its usualy dosage.

I love tuna, sardines canned salmon. At other times will eat arugula, Kale, romaine, red leaf lettuce, and make all my own dressings from Chosen pure avocado oil, destination blend California EVOO from CA and make my own mayo, homemade Caesar from adding Meyer l, garlic, lemon or other Organic lemon and anchovies, arugula, heirloom 🍅 , Kalamata olives with 100% sheep milk Greek Feta in brine with homemade balsamic vinegar dressing with lots of garlic, organic mustard and black pepper... I often ad Keto oils like the unadulterated with seed oils Chosen pure avocado or, and Bullet proof MCT 8 coconut oil...
