I lost 40 lbs at age 64. Yo yo dieted my entire adult life. That was in 2017. I take no meds. I've maintained the weight loss effortlessly too. I switched to a whole food plant based diet. My husband did too. We limit processed food. Sugar us highly addictive. My downfall was always salt and oil. I could eat an entire bag of potato chips. Even now I stay away from chips for the most part. The craving did subside. You are correct about sizing. Every 10 lbs equates to another size. I've gone from a 14 to an 8. You can do this!
A year and a half ago I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. I was 72. Since then I've lost 40 pounds and feel the best I have in years! I had no specific amount I wanted to lose, I just knew with diabetes I would have to weigh less.
During that time I've gone from injecting insulin 3 times a day to taking Metformin tablets twice a day and have kept my blood sugar numbers under 100. I test my blood at least 4 times a day.
Since empty carbs are what spike blood sugar I no longer eat sugar, high carb vegetables and fruits, baked goods, cookies, candy, white breads, rolls, rice, or pasta. Processed foods are out also! That does sound very restricting but you would not believe how much food I eat and how full I am! And how satisfied I am! I just have a lot of the foods that I can eat around the house and in the frig so I can throw together a quick meal quite easily!
I can go out to eat and have numerous things on the menu and all I have to do is keep an eye on the high carb items and not order or eat them. Cutting out high-carb, empty calorie foods is actually quite easy and doesn't give you a feeling of being deprived. I bake a lot of Keto-style desserts which satisfy my sweet tooth although they do not taste like standard sugar desserts. I eat a lot of healthy, organic fats, but that does not effect my check ups nor weight loss. I also either take a 20 minute walk (or even run a bit!) outdoors or walk 20 minutes on the treadmill every day. Nothing strenuous or annoying.
I too weigh myself every day and write that number down along with my blood sugar numbers. It's a great way to see my progress and keep me on track. Of course having great numbers is rewarding but so is having a closet full of new clothes that I actually feel good in and love wearing.
My husband was also diagnosed with a really nasty cancer last year at this time, so stress is not absent from my life, but that hasn't side-tracked me. I have to stay healthy for myself and him so going back to my old habits is not an option!
I really think lowering "bad" carb intake is extremely important for good health and weight loss. It certainly has worked for me!
Don't make the mistake I did of eating poorly, becoming overweight and getting diabetes! It can easily cause numerous health problems and is preventable!
Big congratulations 🎉🎊 I’m 66 and was diagnosed with pre diabetes- I have gone plant-based and like you no sugar, flour or processed foods. I’ve lost 10
Kgs and feel so much better. I think it’s so good we’re working for our health
@@IELTS888 Thank you! Yes, I look at the weight loss as an extra plus when working on my health! 🙂
Yes Cathy, be proud of yourself! 20 lbs is four 5 lb bags of sugar!
(or five 4 lb bags of sugar!)
struggled with weight for years, especially as I entered my 30s. Countless diets left me frustrated. Watching Kathy's video about losing 20 pounds at 55 struck a chord. Her balanced plate approach resonates, as I found success when I stopped obsessing over calories. Incorporating protein, fiber, and veggies became a sustainable way of eating for me too. The idea of not setting deadlines for weight loss, like Kathy, eased the stress that often accompanied my journey. Addressing emotional eating triggers became crucial, and finding healthier coping mechanisms, as Kathy suggests, made a significant difference. This lifestyle change, focusing on balance and well-being, transformed my approach to weight loss, allowing for sustainable results without the need for obsessive dieting. Kathy's tips align with the principles I learned from Aspect Health, subtly guiding my path to a healthier lifestyle. Grateful for insights that resonate with my own journey.
When the negative self talk starts, i ask myself if i would say that to anyone 😮 absolutely not so i shouldn't talk to myself that way.
Grace and kindness 😊
Do not pay attention to the nasty people. You are helping many people .
Cathy, thank you for being so open and honest. I appreciate and enjoy your content. I’m sorry some people choose to be so miserable and reach out with hateful comments. You sure don’t deserve that kind of hate.
Thank you!
My endocrinologist has told me that because I carry weight in my (apple) stomach, weight loss is very hard. She thinks 2 pounds a month is realistic. We set older women up for failure when we say they should lose five-to-ten-pounds a month.
Great job!!!!!
You are doing great! Slow and steady you got this.
Thank you Cathy for this video.
Thank you for sharing, I can totally relate to the candy, especially if I’m in a grocery store that has bulk candy 😮 great advice!
So proud of you, Cathy!! You are inspiring 🩷
Very helpful video Cathy...thanks. You are looking great, well done xxx
This is so good Cathy! Congrats on your weight loss and thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Another great video and some great ideas to stay on track. Thank you.
Thank you for taking us along on your journey. It gives many of us hope and encouragement. ❤
Be soooo proud of all the work you' ve done ! Looking good❤
Thank you. Very encouraging ❤ being kind and honest with ourselves is so important😊
Thank you for sharing your tips and experiences. The snack idea is great 😊. Congratulations on your success
Congrats on your weight loss!! Thanks so much for sharing this no nonsense approach!
You are an inspiration to me, Kathy!
Congratulations on your weight loss. You give us great information!
You’re looking fantastic Cathy. I love your content. You could be talking about me in this video. Very interesting. I’m going to have a look at your diet videos as I haven’t been on much so I’ve missed them xx
Great video! Thanks for sharing. Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank You for your great information- Love watching your videos! You are doing great!
Thank you!
Another great video, Cathy! ❤
Thank you so much!
You are such an inspiration.
You are an inspiration!🩷
I appreciate the realness of your video so much! Candy calls me from downstairs when I’m working too. No one understands that!! Thanks for the inspiration
Thank you Cathy
i struggled with diet culture for years, feeling pressured to conform to unrealistic standards. my journey changed when i worked with a dietitian, embracing the balanced plate approach. quitting calorie counting and setting achievable goals transformed my relationship with food. no more deadlines; just self-love. the struggle with sugar addiction led to a simple solution: no candy at home. this video resonates, emphasizing kindness and realistic goals. health is about balance, not extremes. #aspecthealth
Thank you, Cathy! This video has given me some very helpful tips😊
Thanks for some great content. This resonated with me. Appreciate you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing what’s working for you!
Thanks for watching!
Congratulations on maintaining your weight through the holiday season. That's better than many can say (including me!). Far better than putting on a pound or two and then having the work to get back to where you started on Dec 1. Looking forward to seeing that 1x piece you ordered from Talbots - that's a good reminder to take a chance once in a while on something unexpected or possibly out of one's comfort zone.
Thank you for the update and all the good tips! I'm having surgery soon and put off my new eating regime, not a diet, until February. I'll be checking in on you as I recover. You look very pretty today!🥰
Hi Cathy. Thanks for this video. I like your diet content. Please tell us more about how you keep that half plate of vegetables interesting and enjoyable.
You are awesome! Thank you for being so honest and open. I needed to hear something like this post and feel ...empowered by listening to your journey.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much !!! These videos help greatly
I'm so glad!
Well done you. Thanks for sharing your realistic perspective.
We’ll keep your husband, you and his Team in our prayers. 🙏🏻❤️✌️
Thanks for a great video. I picked up a couple of helpful tips.
Glad it was helpful!
You are doing so well. Thank you so much for sharing and your inspiration. You're looking fab🦘🤗
Thank you so much!
This is fantastic. Congratulations on your steady progress❤
Thank you so much!!
Your doing great! And eating 3 balanced meals a day keeps the metabolism going and the results losing weight
I love that you don't want to do diet culture. Congrats on the weight loss ❤ I do ww and it's helped so much.
I’m glad you are amble to get out for your walks! Hu by and I go to the gym, but he likes to take breaks and I know that’s not good for me. In October I started doing the Tracy Anderson Method , it’s just 30 min I can do in the am, and still go to the gym later. We took a most of December break and I’m seeing my body change in ways just going to the gym doesn’t and it’s no impact ( I don’t like the cardio portion, but will do it occasionally). I’m baking the 90’s using a portable dvd payer and dvds, but this is really working for me! We all have to find that. I’m even doing videos on it, because there aren’t that many out there. Praying for your family!
I’m glad you are staying healthy 💜
Your doing great! Great tips,thank you ❤
Thanks so much!
Cathy ~ you are the Best! This video is exactly what I needed today. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for watching!
Great video Cathy, thank you for sharing with us all. I really appreciate your honesty and down to earth solutions and suggestions. ❤
Thank you so much!
I agree with every single point you made. It's great advice. Great video.
Thanks for watching!
You are a gem! So honest and uplifting. Thank you for sharing in the way that you do!
Wow, thank you!
This was such a great video, I was just scrolling and came across your video. Just yesterday I had a doctors appointment at which time found out my blood pressure was too high, I now have to take my pressure 3 times a day until my follow up appointment. I really afraid I will be put on medication. So I’m just searching for some encouragement today. Your video has helped me, thank you 😊
Progress over perfection! Persistence is the answer!
Cathy, thank you for your openness. I did well last fall but have fallen off during the holidays and gained back some of the weight I worked so hard to get off. I'm back on track now. Looking forward to both our progress. 😊
So true, dear Cathy. I wish you all the best.
Thank you so much!
I am praying for you and your husband
Cathy! Thank you for being an inspiration!
Love the wear clothes for your body tip… I am going to commit to doing this❤ and feeling my emotions I am a Caregiver and getting older has really wreaked havoc on my emotional state of mind… paying attention to my own needs is so important
Thank you Cathy, I found your video inspiring and honest, I could really relate 😊
I'm so glad!
Thank you for this honest and inspiring video. There is a lot of wisdom for me to apply.
Glad it was helpful!
I love your videos. I appreciate your honesty. You are brave. I'm trying your meal plan this month.
You can do it!
I have been questioning my emotional eating more and more and I thank/blame you for that, lol. Losing the weight I must say really is a little mind blowing at times, after having been overweight for most of my adult life it just messes with me a bit as I am losing. Thank you for your videos I really appreciate them and you right now. I hope things are going well with your husband, mine is still fighting off whatever the virus off. Be well.
Intermittent fasting really took the weight off me. It can be hard to do at first, however. And, you don't want to starve yourself every day. My doctor told me to only do it maybe 2 to 3 days/week (not consecutive days) and to drink a pea-protein drink maybe 1x/day while I do it.(You don't want to throw the body into starvation mode; then you'll stop losing weight if you do.) Then, eat a normal dinner. Can't believe how well it's worked.
Thank you!!! Your words are an inspiration to me.
You are so welcome! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your journey.
You are so welcome!
I like the points you made and love that you found a sensible, sustainable way of eating. 🎉
Thanks so much! 😊
Thankyou so much Cathy, you such an inspiration to me. Love your videos
Thank you so much!
Hi Cathy, I am a new subscriber, and I am interested in this approach your are doing for weight loss. I have to eat gluten-free and low FODMAP. There are many fruits and vegetables that I can not eat, and sadly Onions and Garlic are two of the foods that I cannot eat. I will figure this out, but I am learning a lot from your videos, so thank you for that.
Hopefully you will reach 100k subscribers in your near future!🙂 Take care!
You look amazing. Ty for this video. ❤
You are so welcome!
Great video! Really appreciated hearing what works from you. You gave me some great ideas. I really like the balanced plate approach. I’m a new subscriber so maybe you have a video already I haven’t seen, but if not, could you do a video on what you have for breakfast and lunch?
Hi, if you search what I eat on my UA-cam channel page I have a few videos. I’ll be adding more soon.

You are so welcome!
I appreciate all your videos with weight loss advice. Great job! 💙
Thank you so much!
You look wonderful ! Loved this vlog! Prayers and hugs for you and your husband 🙏
Thank you so much!
Great, great video Cathy. We are so proud of you, you are doing great. Everything you said is true and thank you for sharing it. ❤
Thank you so much! 🥰
Timely advice as I weighed myself for the first time since the holidays and did not see the number I wanted. Trying to avoid the negative self talk.
Same here!
I love watching your experience of how you lost weight!! Please keep it coming!!! These are my favorites!! Bless you!❤❤❤
Thank you! Will do!
Thanks again for the weight loss tips. You are doing great Cathy! Love and Kindness, Teresa
Thank you so much!
Thank you, Kathy.
You are so welcome!
thanks for the viedo great tips.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this video. I'm 57, almost 58 and would love to drop 40 or 50 lbs. Like you, I tend to love sweets. I'll keep watching for inspiration :)
Wishing you and your husband well. Thank you for sharing your journey, and what has worked for you, it is so helpful.
You are so welcome!
Oh Cathy! You must be very proud of yourself! It’s an achievement even more so in all the difficult conditions you’ve mentioned! You are inspiring me a lot! ❤
Thank you so much!
Cathy, this was such a comprehensive list. I think you are helping a lot of women out there with your videos. Keep up the great content!!
Thank you so much!
So much great advice here! You’re so right about recognizing when you make bad choices that you can then go down a rabbit hole of more bad choices. I’ve done a bit of that in the last week and I do know better, but I’m recognizing that it’s never too late to stop and turn things around. Thanks to your videos I’m also doing some soul searching as to why I reach for candy to push down feelings, and I’ve been applying the tactic of “if I still want it tomorrow I’ll have it”…..and I typically don’t want it by then. I appreciate your videos and insights. I’m learning so much. Thank you 😊
Thanks for sharing this Patricia! I'm so happy that people are finding the information that I share to be helpful! 💖
You Cathy are so relatable
Love ❤ you and keep it up
Thank you!
Thank you for helping us all to eat more healthfully and slay the diet culture dragon plus still lose weight! Brilliant charcuterie board trick!!!!
Loving these tips. I can relate to all of them. I will be 70 in a few months and I am more sedentary than before and eat “junk” food more than meals. My husband seems to sabotage my healthy eating. He thinks I can eat just “one” REALLY??? I CANT do that. I’m gonna save this video where I can watch it frequently. Thanks for being “you”
You are very inspiring! Your videos are very😊 helpful!!
Thank you so much!
I have developed an autoimmune disease post Covid. I was on steroids and other meds that resulted in 35 lbs of added weight and I am really struggling with getting this under control. Thank you so much for sharing your level headed approach to weight loss and your own struggles.
I found your clothing videos when getting ready for a big trip. I’ve gained weight - but wanted to look nice. Thanks for your insights to dressing when your body isn’t a size 10! I’ve really enjoyed your videos on your weight loss. I’m tired of programs I have to pay for without much success ! Bad will power on my part! Please include more about what specifically you EAT in this weight loss program.
