Excellent video very informative thanks 😊

❤ well said

Thank you very much Ivana

I switched to oatmeal five days a week and my numbers improved greatly

LOL 13 X my bodyweight (220lbs) = 2,860 calories. I gain weight at around 2,300 calories and figure maintenance for me is 2,200~2,000, AND I'm pretty active. At 2,800 calories a day I'll gain a pound a week at least.

I used to be 400 pounds, recently, I started walking and resistance training. The issue was that in 2020, I was diagnosed with Osteomeylitis of L4 and L5 of my spine. I was immediately hospitalized and had a PICC line installed and was given 2 extemely powerful antibiotic injections a day and had to stay in a hospital bed. Before the antibiotics started working, the infection got so bad that I waa paralyzed from the waist down for a month. I had to lay in a hospital bed for 5 months, which in that time, all my muscles atrophied, so I had to learn how to walk again. After intense physio, I got walking and the antibiotics eventually got rid of the infection. I then started my weight loss, dieting and excersizing journey. I started off barely being able to stand for more than 30 seconds and not able to walk more than 200 or 300 steps without having to sit and rest. Slowly I have worked my step count up. I just did my first day last week where I walked 21,000 steps in one day. I also have started resistance training, and I am able to do short sprint bursts with no issues now. I am not 246 pounds and still pushing on. My goal is to get below 200 with 15% or lower fat percentage. I was on 2 blood pressure medications, which I just got off the last one a few weeks ago. My heart health has improved significantly. I resistance train 3 times a week for about an hour and 20 mins per session and I do power walking/sprinting every day after work for about 3 km. My energy is through the roof, I am more confident in my body, next step is to find a girlfriend. Basically what I want everyone to get from my story is that if you want to make a change like I have, you have to see it as a lifestyle change, forever. I will never not be active again. I am 42, male, and am in the best shape of my life, my mental health has improved exponentially. So just remember that you can make a change, and you don't have to change everything all at once. Make small changes, and before you know it, you will look back and be amazed at the good you have done. Walking has been a great tool that I have incorporated in my life and I hope that other people will read what I have wrote and get inspired to change their lives too!!!

I can feel my tva waking up, but it doesnt feel strong enough to "squeeze" anything if thwt makes sense

It'll also prevent injury because if you got more muscle it's harder to get hurt then if your skinny

Thank you for making this super easy to understand !

For 50 years we have been preaching better health. Are folks healthy today? Hell No! People in the 60’s were more active, trim and didn’t worry about food that much! Most were natural + not processed like today.

Very informative thanks

Finally someone telling truth...

Great video. I am surprised I haven’t started to grow feathers with the amount of chicken and egg whites I eat 😂

Excellent video very very informative thanks

I’ve heard that it per lean body weight. I’ve also heard that your body cannot process more than like 20-30 grams at a time. Not saying you are wrong but there’s so much conflicting information regarding this subject.

Ive dieted successfully 3 times already. Lost 70 lbs, 30, and 30. My exercise at 42, at 48, and 51 was pretty intense. Each time i put the weight back on thinking i can lose whenever i get ready. I ate mostly lean meat and vegatables. No bread, sugar, or starch at least 4 days a week. Now at 61 its excruciating. I should have stayed within 20 lbs of my BMI.

I have a scale that counts body fat and I'm at 14% but I look like the 20-25

Fantastic Muscly Arms Ivana 😉 Great To See You Working on Your Arms and Biceps with those Double Dumbells. Power Guns 💪💪❤️

I have a question? I'm 54 years; 5'11'" average 196 pounds. I lift 3 times a week and jog 3 days a week. I have a young trainer and he suggests that I should look into Testosterone. Honestly. I don't think taking Testosterone is a healthy pathway. Can I get your opinion because he suggests this to me a lot.

Doesn't it vary the amount of grams of protein by weight, age and gender /? I just found out I was eating higher amount of protein and wasn't loosing weight , now that I cut it almost by half im on my way to fat loss. im such a dork 🤓

My challenge is to keep my calories lower than 2400 and get 180 grams of protein all while being dairy/whey intolerant.

Excellent no BS video thanks! I was the guy who had too much ‘fatty’ protein sources and then also cut carbs too much. Thank you 🇳🇿

Excellent video. Thank you!

❤❤ Thank you 😊 Im trying to lose 40 lbs.😊 thank you for all the knowledge 🙏

This is an amazing video!

I'm 37 and I have diastasis recti. It caused my umbilical hernia to be bigger and I'm already scheduled for repair. Thank you for this material as it's very helpful.

Yeah you can get them they just might not be visible just keep working

Damn what a beauty and great body.. Thanks for the heads up, i will do so.

What about hemp and chia seeds?

Great video, makes so much sense. Over 20 years I tried many diets and joined many slimming clubs but with no success. i now eat 600 calories one day and the next day eat my body weight 168lbs x 10: 1680 calories (I adjust accordingly) and can see a downward trend. I repeat these two days. I try to make my meals 70% of healthy food I like. I will always love carbs and sugar. I also by choice do not eat before 12 o’clock and after 7 pm. I weigh myself every day as I like to be accountable and record the numbers. Such great advice, I will subscribe.

Thank you Ivana!

The peasants always had the best health

Thank you. I was wondering what the dome effect was all about. A quick search led me to this video and I now understand. I will see a physician to get a diagnosis. Again, thank you.

with 2024 coming to an end ive been extremly if you across this comment check back to see if ive acheived abdominals

I have a neurodivergent toddler with a sleep disorder; what is sleep? 🥲

Eating oatmeal is still way better than taking any advice from Paul Saladino.

are you using the paywall part of my fitness pal?

I dont understand how to put the percentages in the calculator, you have 0.2 for 20% and 1.15 for 15% basicly useless if you dont know how this actually done. Yah I know I am dumb whatever.

I'm male, just had it done wout sedation, it was awful and difficult(with grimacing and groaning in pain) but I would choose no sedation again b/c I don't like the idea of being sedated.

I know I'm doing it all wrong...My stomach is not expanding while breathing in,its contracting and vice versa..

the hate for oatmeal from all those randos on youtube is because it's cheap, it's good for you, and it prevents them from selling their supplements

I have PCOS. have started calorie deficit last April 5, 2024, taking in 1,200 calories a day. I went from 83kg down to 72kg during the second week of July 2024. However, since last week, I noticed I stopped going down and stayed at 72.2-74 for the past few days. I do strength training, spending around half to a full hour of slow-paced training with 5-7kg weights, but I don't think it's something that significant (is it?) that it started stalling my weight loss. The type of food I consume is pretty much consistent everyday as well, a heavy breakfast of some oats and chia, protein at lunch/dinner with eggs for instance, and throw some vegetables in there as well; further, I am on an intermittent fasting of 20:4, I eat at 12:30 noon to 4:30 in the afternoon. Do you have any insight regarding this? I'm a bit paranoid since I was starting off strong.

Yes useful thank for video

can we eat fruit as a meal?

Thank You!

I’ve never been on the keto diet, but I get it shoved in my face because I have to share extra space with my kids Uncle keeps reinforcing that my child and I should be on it and my child should be on it for her hyper active activity and that’s not how that works
