Any guidance for breastfeeding mothers? I lost about 30kg with low-carb but my breastfeeding wrecked my eating habits.
What I do works for me, am satisfied!
Hi doctor, thanks for the informative tutorial. I was wondering about chia seeds or psyllium husk, do they raise insulin or break intermittent fasting, as i try to avoid these during intermittent fasting.
@@dominictomasino5198 no warch Dr Fung, he explains everything. Whem my PCP suggested going on IF, I was skeptical, but after listening to Dr Fung, I gave it a try.
@Jason Fung will intermittent fasting diet work for a post menopausal woman who has hypothyroidism?? Thank you!!
If I eat early, I’ll eat all day. It’s not even a choice for me
Exactly. Opens the floodgates!
Same. If I cant wait till 2-4p to eat i will have 1/2 tsp ghee or mct oil in tea or coffee and that gets me thru.
@@CalmVibesVee I can't believe how well a small amount of healthy fat works to quell your appetite. I was getting very hungry after not eating all day but wanted to wanted to wait another couple hours before eating dinner, so instead I grabbed a few walnuts to tide me over. I was surprised that not only did it stop the hunger-pangs but I wasn't hungry at all until several hours later!!😉😎
@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 I love it!
Like everyone else no longer eat breakfast do well later without eating dinner. Reached my goal weight.
I thought there was something wrong with me. When I actually stopped and listened to my body, I wasn't hungry in the morning. I am so brainwashed about eating 3 meals, I am retraining now
I skip dinner. He said it is more effective for weight loss.
@@epicurean1868 but he also said to do what's easiest to fit into your lifestyle
Me too
@@epicurean1868 I stop eating by 6pm then eat "breakfast" around 11 and lunch around 3. Yesterday I ate one meal, but it was hardy. Good luck!
Another part of your "training" was the Food Pyramid which pushed high starch foods.
Been doing this for a year now, I skip dinner, works for me. Lost 63 pounds so far. 😊
Oh no 63 pounds in a whole year seems so little.....iam currently doing OMAD iam finalising with week one.. iam going to need a whole year before I see real changes?
Congrats!! You have to make it work for you...for some people is breakfast, for others is dinner...as long as you are eating healthy and it works...FANTASTIC🤗!
@@ukufilahouseofart3302 everybody is different mate
@@ukufilahouseofart3302 thats not little what 😅
Just wondering if you get hungry around dinner time or by developing that new habit you don’t?
The main key 🔑 to this video is to skip breakfast 🥞 if you are not 😋 hungry. Skipping dinner 🍽 is the most effective. Thank you so much Dr. Fung.
Thanks
Good looking out
Thank you
Great overview thanks. All main points in a brief paragraph. Love it.
I've been doing this now for 8 weeks. My eating window is 730am to 130pm. My eating window is 6 hours and fast 18 hours. I also walk ave 6km daily. The weight is dropping off nicely and I feel way better overall.
Approximately how many pounds are you losing per week on this regimen?
That's great.
@@almaburns6562 I’ve lost 2-4 lbs a week over the past three weeks doing this!
That seems to be the hardest window of time. For me anyway. It’s sooo much easier to fast until 6pm. I commend you!
What do you eat during that time?
Whenever I am struggling with IF or need a little encouragement, I watch any of Dr. Fung‘s videos. It doesn’t matter which one or if I have watched the same one several times. He gets me back on track with common sense backed by science.
Same
Good plan
Same. I also listen when falling asleep so it sticks lol
Yes, me too! Dr Fung's videos are great reminder to stay on track.
I feel the same way!
So many people, including myself, owe a great deal to this man. Thank you Jason Fung
I owe my quality of life to this man, and to Denise Polack, with their guidance I overcame my Type 2, which helped me loss 70lbs in less than a year.
I agree!
hi boo, im stick at number for 2 weeks now , what i got do ......any advise please
@@drive-2786 Lower your Carbs intake substantially! Increase your fat, drink at least 72 oz of water daily
CUT out the following 3 things from your diet immediately.
A- Bread ( all kinds )
B- Potatoes
C- Rice ( white or brown ) they are the same.
Needless to say No sugar.
Keep your meals to small portions, be STRICK for 4/6 weeks, you will be amazed, what will happen to your body
This man changed my life completely. I only do one meal a day since 2017. I never get sick or tired
This explains why I've never been a "breakfast" person. I've never been able to eat upon waking - all the way back to elementary school, I always skipped breakfast.
Me too!!
Me also, that made it easier to start my breakfast at 11or noon.
Same for me. Eating in the morning actually makes me nauseous. Since I've been very young I drink a glass of ice water first thing in the morning and I still do.
Me, too, Joanne :)
I'm 66 and I hardly ever eat breakfast!
OMG - me too! When I was young, growing up in the 50s and 60s, I had to eat breakfast before I went to school. It almost made me sick to my stomach. Now I understand why.
This is such a great explanation. The major benefit for me in skipping dinner is I get the best sleep. It feels so nice to go to bed on an empty stomach and then wake up to a really nice breakfast.
Yeah i second you on this.
3 weeks in on keto, I brought up intermittent fasting with my husband and he refused to skip breakfast as breakfast food is his favourite food! I said okay, then we will skip dinner, which was easy for me because I hadn't even been hungry for dinner since starting keto. Now, we have a great breakfast, and a large meal around 2-3 pm, and fast the rest 16:8. He finds he isn't even hungry for dinner anymore either and we don't really feel like we are missing out socially. Our health is more important than social gatherings, during which we simply bring our water bottles and still mingle just fine. We sleep better too without a full stomach.
I’m a breakfast skipper & we eat dinner late. I don’t even notice that I haven’t eaten breakfast.
I appreciate that you explain the science between the two options, but ultimately encourage people to do what works best for them because either option is better than nothing. Your approach is encouraging in such a positive way. I’m 55 pounds down, asthma improved and what I suspect were pre diabetes symptoms gone, and finally feel like food and health make sense to me thanks to the free information you put out about low carb and intermittent fasting. I can’t thank you enough. Your message was the one that clicked.
Thanks!
I don’t understand the science part of the time of day, only that most people eat higher % of calories at dinner. Well I do because that’s the only meal I eat.
Good day.. I'm Tanya 38 can't get my weight down, after baby his now 20months struggling. So I have a green smoothie in the morning then try to fast and eat dinner.. but just had a snack now at 3PM .. could not wait for dinner 🤭
@@tanyabredeveldt1042 not enough fat in the smoothie to sustain you. Try eating breakfast around lunch time...then dinner around 6pm to 7pm. Then fast for at least 16-18. Eat around noon or after for your first meal.
Thank you!!! Great video!!! I have lost 90 lbs since March 2021 using IF and extended fasts and healthy keto. I have 30 lbs more to go! These videos give me the drive and boost to carry on! I had thought a woman in menopause couldn’t break the weight gain cycle. I am living proof it can be done. I had gained quite a bit of weight quitting smoking and beginning menopause 4 yrs ago. I tried to eat healthy but nothing worked. This works! Cheers! 😀
👏 Bravo.
5:09 Skipping breakfast is usually easier; skipping dinner is more effective.
Thanks so much
I must be from Mars. I eat breakfast as my one meal a day.
@@usamwhambam so do I! If I eat a big meal at dinner I get heartburn
It feels better
@@usamwhambam what do you eat and what time exactly please?
We work from home, so my husband and I skip dinner. I want to be able to have my morning coffee, so that is my breakfast and we eat lunch before noon. It has been extremely effective! Thanks Dr. Fung, for everything!
Me2!! I drink my coffee with cream, so no way am I waiting till 12p.m to have it 😃 skipping dinner is the obvious choice then😄
Amen, i like my coffee and eating from 930am - 1:59pm
That’s great! On days when my husband and I both have off, we’ll often have a big lunch. He might have something light later in the evening, like a tin of sardines, but I’m usually fine until the next day.
Agreed coffee and then I’m Omad before 5
This is me too! So glad I’m not alone! I stop eating at 3pm
Okay, _today_ I get back on track!
I’m 35 ,landscaper,construction worker.
In the beginning of 2021 I was obese 225 lbs.
I was eating tree meals ,breakfast,lunch and late dinner(around 7-10 pm).
In July - August I decided to lose weight,I substitute dinner meals for fruit smoothies (papaya,mango,pineapple).
And I started to drink a lot of water.
After a few weeks I noticed the change in my body,I sleep better,woke up feeling less fatigued,cleaner guts,more energetic ,etc.
So Then I decided to quitted coffee ,sugar,sodas and energy drinks candies,cake,sweet bread ,junk fast food,etc.(I have ADHD so this was a good decision for me)
If I feel like a want something sweet I had some fruit .
In September I started skipping dinner and I only ate two meals ,breakfast and lunch .
Cause I going to bed feeling hungry every night, every morning when I wake up (5:30-6:00 am)I’m starving ,so I have some eggs,breakfast tacos or some fruit.
At lunch(12:00 pm-2:00 pm )I eat a heavy meal (meat,vegetables,rice,beans)
After lunch I only drink water if I feel hungry before 5:30 I’ll have a fruit or some nuts,after 5:30 I don’t eat anything at all.
Now I weight 172.00 lbs
👏Glad you found a routine that works for you, Miguel, keep it up!!! 👍💪

I finally figured out and am very thankful to Dr Fung. I’m a flight attendant working internationally. To stay awake and fight time zone challenge I frequently ate meals and snacks on flight. Since I have followed fasting regimen I feel better after flight and lost weight significantly. Yey😊👍. Thanks for your information. I have had this problem of overeating during my whole career of 30 years. I now know what to do on each flight!
Oh my gosh, I'm in a similar situation - what time zone do you stick to? Or do you just stick to 18 hours wherever you are and eat whenever you're hungry? I do dead late shifts and always eat afterwards and then go to bed for an early shift, but can't sleep right due to digestion, stressed about sleeping, cortisol goes up, etc etc... tha k you and you're amazing, well done for sorting something out!!!
Tomoko, what is your eating regimen when you fly international? How many meals do you have a day?
I've never in my life wanted to eat breakfast but I was born in 1982 and so raised on the idea you MUST eat breakfast, you must snack etc to stay healthy. What happened to me? I got fat and addicted to sugar. So I stopped eating breakfast again and I'm back to a normal weight. I'll never stop listening to my body again and I don't force my children to eat breakfast either.
Children are still growing, they certainly need a good breakfast.
@@ROBDee-ho9lu -- Really? Perhaps they don't.
So the only two options are eating unhealthy breakfast and snacks or starving yourself? 🤦♂️
I remember the Kellogg's "Stick Up For Breakfast" campaign that was everywhere starting in the 70s and carried over into the 80s. In retrospect, we know it was self-serving for the company that makes, ahem, breakfast cereal. That is loaded with sugar and carbs and is about the worst thing you can eat in the morning.
@@ROBDee-ho9lu Define "good breakfast" - it isn't the crap in the cold cereal aisle!
If I eat breakfast, I will be hungry the whole day. Now I know it has to do with hormones but in the past I thougt 'my stomach is sleeping en if I eat breakfast, I will wake it up'.
The same thing happens to me
Same here! If I eat breakfast (or even lunch) I'll be hungry the entire day and can't wait to have dinner, and will fall into my old habit of snacking the entire day. If I do OMAD or break my fast later in the afternoon I'm OK
This also happens to me. What did he say the reason was? I missed it.
Omg thats so cute to think tjat you stomach was asleep 😁
@@lordnelsonmc.billionberg9166 It seems like it was the case. I'm a simple person. lol
When a child, I noticed that after having a late dinner (supper) I would wake up hungry. And if I didn’t eat long enough before bed I wasn’t hungry in the morning. The same went true for the other meals! After missing breakfast I wasn’t hungry for lunch, and if I missed lunch I could well miss dinner! So I came up with a conclusion: the less you eat the less you want it, and vice versa. ))
Now I realize that was wise body work!
Wow so true
This comment is confusing, because late dinner DESTROYS my hunger the next morning. It's like the food from last night is still being digested or something.
I guess we're each built different after all.
High protein meals at night make me very hungry in the morning. Dinner before sunset is recommended if you enjoy fish.
I love this weekly session. Thanks so much DR Fung, we appreciate you in the UK!
I hope that more people see your videos, especially those who are starting to change their lifestyles for the better, like me.
I love dr fung, I love his calm gentle delivery
Thank you Dr. Fung for all your hard work and helping others to understand the truth behind fasting! I remember when I started following you a few years back and your information on IF was helping me shed the excess weight and gave me more energy. I didn’t realize IF was something I was doing on and off since college. Due to COVID, I unfortunately put back on weight and have re-dedicated myself to fasting again. I am so happy to see your channel grow and you reach more people! Thank you again! ☺️
Thank you Dr. Fung! You are saving lives! And you have saved mine. You are not only a credentialed man; you are a courageous man. You dared to learn from what you were seeing in your practice. You are a true doctor.
Thanks for encouraging us this week Dr. Fung!
Thankyou dr. Fung. You are helping alot of us save a tone of money, headache and pain fie free. You are meeting our needs so, may your needs be met.
This Doctor is the best! You are truly a heaven sent! May the Gods bless you with great health, more strength and lots of wisdom. Thank you for your kindness!
You changed my life from a distance. Thank you for all you’re doing, Dr. Fung. These presentations have been strategic in my journey thus far.
Love Jason! Spending his life helping millions of people live better lives - without remuneration. Xxx
I love the sound, sane advice. Do a little at a time. Perfect.
Fascinating and so helpful! Dr. Fung is awesome! I didn’t know why I wasn’t hungry in the morning and now I know why. Knowing that skipping dinner is the most effective is very motivating; and knowing it will be easier to skip dinner when I don’t have to worry about being social - such as when I’m traveling, or my boyfriend is gone. Appreciate the tips for dealing with the habit, swapping for a good habit (never heard before about cider vinegar & chia seeds)and especially the tip that hunger just doesn’t continue to build, that to ride the wave, and it will decrease ... For me, keeping busy helps a lot too: sometimes I miss lunch this way without even thinking about it....
Once I start to eat I find I’m hungrier during the day. Dinner works best for me.
Same for me.
Same here!
Same here too
Yup
Yes
👌🏼 Thank you Dr. Fung! God bless you and your family! 🙏🏼
Oh yeah, Thank you, Dr. Fung! These videos are very helpful and informative!
I'm always hungriest when I'm about to get on the road to work, at 6 a.m. I pack my keto breakfast and lunch into a cooler to take with me. Denying myself breakfast until 9 a.m. is an astronomical effort. Once I eat breakfast and lunch til completely satisfied, it's easy to stop eating at 1 or 2 until the next morning. A bit of broth before bed is enough to tide me over til morning.
Lucky
Thank you Dr. Fung. I want you to know how much you're appreciated. You have saved my life.
👍👍👍
How?
How mary how ??
You are the best encouraging people I have ever come across on this U - Tube. The teaching skill n encouragement to people out there who need help with dieting is wonderful. God will bless you. I will try and work on myself following your steps. One at a time. To skip breakfast or dinner.
Thank you Dr. Fung, I bought both of your books thru Kindle. You helped some many people. You gave us hope.
This is s helpful! I have been fasting 16/8 with great success. I am down 26 pounds lighter but more important to me is my A1C is normal!
You are saving lives, thank you for your efforts.
Dr Fung is the best, his grasp of the material and matter of fact presentation is most helpful.
I have been taking your advice and doing the intermittent fasting since about three weeks. I had a nasty bladder infection and was looking for advice and found your channel. Yes I have been detoxing and have changed my diet considerably. I found your channel and thought I'd try this! I've had so many symptoms improve almost immediately! I have lost weight as I put on some clothes where I was poured into them. My rings even fit looser! I will keep learning and applying your advice! Thank you very much!👍❗
Oh she had a great doctor to recommend your book!
I know thats right..its rare
I have been doing a mixture of 16-8 to 18-6 since about 10 months and have gone from 80.6 Kg to 62.8 Kgs. I was taking 950 mg Janumet twice a day (=1900 mg a day). Now I have come down to 500mg metformin once a day. My eating window is from 10 AM to 4 pm and I have split my 2 meals to the equivalent of 3. This has kept me going psychologically that I ate my 3 meals. My breakfast is the biggest meal, with dinner being the smallest. I also do about 45 minutes of yoga just before I open my fast and 45 minutes cardio in evening around 7 pm. I am soon going to be 50 years in age and have decided to keep this as my lifestyle. Thanks much much for the concept of intermittent fasting!!
Hi Dr. Fung, Thank you for posting this video. The most important thing I've realized upon reflection is that calories count regardless of which meal is fasted through. I fast through breakfast, eat lunch, and dinner. Now my portiions for lunch and dinner are smaller and more focused on protein. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with these videos. I have your books and periodcially read back through them.
Thanks for sharing with us, Dr Fung is awesome!
✌🏼😎👍🏼
This was insightful! After 18 months of a similar approach to fasting, I lost 100 pounds. This video explains some things that worked but I didn’t know exactly why it worked early on. I can share this concise video with friends who want to try fasting but lack confidence and understanding. I was blessed to be referred to a fabulous nutritionist that gave me encouragement and flexibility on my journey. Videos like this helped too. Thanks!
Coffee has always worked for me...I can take up to 4 cups before I eat food....sometimes I go up to 4pm to feel that I really need to eat..fasting is effective....I still don't see any need for eating 3 meals a day.its such a waste and unhealthy.
Great work Doc! You are helping me so much! God bless you
This is exactly what I’m looking for. Many Thanks, Dr. Jason.
Thank you for the explanation of how our body natural cycle works, Dr. Fung. Great practical advice!
Thanks Dr Fung ,informative as usual. I skip breakfast as that is the easiest for me to do. Working shifts at a blood donation centre I have to eat my dinner around 8.30 when I get home from work. I have been doing 16:8 for around 6 months and it is going well. Will continue till I reach my goal and then will continue for maintenance.
When I stopped eating dinner I sleep so much better and I wake up with more energy. So now I've learned for me, one meal a day, between 1030 a. - 3 p. works best for me. A 48 hour water fast also makes me me feel much better once a week.
Exact same food window also works best for me
48 hours once a week? Ever thought about 72 hours once a month with 7 days annually?
I LOVE THIS MAN. Thank you Dr Fung
Thank you Dr Fung. Keep educating us.
I kept telling friends that I get hungry after I eat they keep luaghing thinking this is a joke
Now I know this is scientific fact👍
I say this all the time and it never makes sense to people .. if I eat breakfast I get ravenous by 11am.
I use to have oatmeal for breakfast bc they always say it keeps you full longer. I would alway be starving less then an hour after I eat it.
If I eat oatmeal I'm starving _immediately_ after I eat it lol.
Actually Adelle Davis wrote in 1954 in her book "Let's Eat Right to Keep Fit" about how oatmeal causes a dramatic rise and drop in blood sugar compared to other breakfasts. I read her books in the seventies. Don't know what kind of oatmeal it was though.
@@LookingForAnotherPlanet Probably instant or 1 min oats. Old fashioned oats ( whole oats) is the best way to go if eating oatmeal, and you should have a fruit and a protien source along with it ( like eggs)
@@shellslaraine9295 Nah I like nothing but coffee with ghee for breakfast and energy at the gym. BTW Quaker instant oats was created in 1966 according to Quaker's own story so obviously the study did not use instant oats since Davis' book was written in 1954! 1 minute however was created in 1922 so that was possible.

I started fasting from 3 meal to 2 meals a day ( skipping breakfast). I don't feel hungry, and feel alert. I am active in exercise everyday and don't feel lack of energy. My tummy is getting smaller and my skin is better and I am cutting down on my exercise to give my body rest in between. At the same time, I still could reduce my weight without exercise much.
Yay! Thanks doc! Many blessings for all that you do for this world!!🙏💓🙏
ALWAYS SO STRAIGHT FORWARD AND CLEAN HELP..THANKS, DR.!!!!!!!
I've been on the intermittent fast for 6 weeks now. I found the 20/4 works best for me. I had always had breakfast first thing in the morning, and am really surprised how easy only having one or two meals between 12 and 4 has become. I may try fasting for an entire day, once a week.
My question is if you eat at noon how can you be hungry at 4 pm again
Time to change it up and skip dinner. Thanks, Dr. F!
Thank you, Dr. Fung! God bless you and your work.
I’m very grateful for the knowledge you share and how you break it down. Thank you, you are a blessing
I’m new to intermitten fasting. Going on about a month now. I’m still working it out a bit. I started with 16/8. Now I’m adding a 24 hour fast once a week. So far it’s been easier to skip breakfast. And I’m not as hungry as I thought I would be. I break my fast at noon and stop eating at 8 pm since I usually work until 7 pm. But I find I’m not really starving at 8, so I have something small. Lunch is usually where I’ll have the bulk of my food. I have lost 80lbs doing a low calorie diet, but I have hit a plateau. And I can’t seem to loose belly fat.
I’ve been finding your videos very educational and so full of great tips. It’s really been helping me start this new journey. My next hurdle is to try and cut back on the carbs. I still find myself counting calories since I’m used to it and since I don’t cook or meal prep I usually eat out at lunch time or have a baked potato with cottage cheese. My breakfast most mornings was low calorie toast with peanut butter and sugar free jelly. But since I’m skipping breakfast I’m not having that bread in the morning. Hopefully I’ll break this plateau and learn to eat better. Thank you.
I absolutely love breakfast! It’s always been my favorite meal of the day... for me, eating my last meal of the day at 4pm and not eating again until 8am works best.
Same for me......exactly!!! I feel sickly if I don’t eat breakfast. A lot of people on here have commented that if they eat breakfast, they feel hungry all day. I don’t. I feel satisfied after breakfast and usually don’t get hungry again til 1 or 2.
Momma Bear Yes... I can get quite “hangry” if I don’t eat breakfast! And, with all the research on how our bodies heal while sleeping... you’d think that an afternoon to morning fast would be even more beneficial!🤷🏼♂️🤔
That’s what I’m doing it I don’t my blood 🩸 sugar will drop too low and I’m ok metformin once a day
Thank you for breaking it down, this help me to understand so many things that I have been struggling with.
You make so much sense.. it’s that simple . Thank you so much!
Very interesting and insightful. When I first began doing IF I would have breakfast and skip dinner, this is when I became the most lean. It became difficult because of social reasons, like you explained, dinner is mor especial and harder to skip. I decided to switch to eating dinner only and I gained quite a bit of weight back. But skipping breakfast is definitely the easier and more suitable option for me, I just need to make sure I’m not over eating in the evening when I have my meal. Great video, thank you.
In primitive tribes people generally were active in the morning time then ate at midday and then didn't leave the village or camp the rest of the day.
You have helped so many people. You have no idea. Thank you for telling the truth in a world that deceives for profit. People like you will have everlasting life. Yes in paradise.psalms 37; 10,11
Thank you Dr.Jason for all your information. Gratitude.
Thank you doctor Fung for sharing all your tips.... I love the way you explain things....very clear!!!!
Thank you Dr Fung! I’m 5 lbs from reaching my summer goal weight. I’ve been following your tips and I’ve gone from 238 to 205 in 15 weeks. Hopefully I can be between 170-175 by the end of the year.
But the ancient chi practice and other cultures, it is well observed that our body's natural capacity to digest is at its maximum around noon..between 11- 12. So it is always recommended to have big nutricious meal in midmorning...and slow down or skip after sunset when body's natural juices slow down
Love this video, lovely clear explanation and so sensible. Thank you
You are a God send .. Whenever I have a doubt , I get the perfect answer in one of your videos . Thanks a ton - I've just finished your book The Diabetes Code and started with a 15 hour fast but trying to increase it. No sugar in any form, No refined carbs Healthy fats ..After watching this video I think Ill skip dinner instead of BF bcos my fasting sugar levels are still hovering around 150 . I hope I will be able to resolve that in one month . Thank you once again for such detailed yet simple explanation
Thank you so much I never felt hungry in the morning. But I was forced to eat breakfast all the time. Eat OMAD. Dinner with family members. 23:1
Best videos on the Tube for real keto truths!
Dr Eric Bergs are great too 👍
That was an oxymoron if I ever heard one! 😂
You're spot on! I don't feel bad about skipping breakfast anymore!
Always great listening to a great expert...Definitely sharing..
Thank you for doing the comparison between the 2 meals and explaining the hormone activity at the various times of day. I am a non-breakfast eater. Have been that way since in my twenties. I am 54 and perimenopausal so my hormones are another issue and for the past 2 years it seems like I cannot lose weight no matter what I try. I am going to not eat dinner every other day to see if that gives my metabolism the boost it needs.
I started my intermittent fasting 2 days ago. I eat my breakfast at 8am, and lunch @12 or 1pm. Next meal time will be the next day @8am again. I somehow feel my tummy getting smaller. 😊
Good job Carla...keep it up and please update on the progress👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

Thank you! I have all of your books! You’re fantastic!
Thanks to Dr. Fung and other Kito advice on UA-cam, I’ve been doing the Kito Diet and Intermittent Fasting (1-2 days fasting per week) for 6 months and have met my weight goals and feel great! Thank you!
I have been battling my weight for many years and tried many things, I am also extremely active and spend roughly 2 hours at the gym, but I couldn't shed the excess weight. I tried intermittent fasting (low carb) 6 months ago and it has done wonders for not only my body weight but also my health. I was able to successfully control my diabetes, my A1C went from 11 to 5.2 from my last result. As for skipping meals I find that dinner is easier for me. First as a retail manager my work day is usually from 11-8 which means I won't get home until 9 by then it is easier to just not eat the rest of the night. Also I feel like I'm the opposite. I wake up in the morning and within an hour I get extremely hungry, so I usually break my fast with 2 organic eggs along with coffee w/ cream no sugar. I just want to spend this time to share my experience as well as thank Dr. Fung for your great content, I follow you and Dr. Berg and it has really help me with a lot.
I currently only eat lunch (OMAD) and it’s a great sweet spot for me. It’s been nice for quarantine, but I think when I “re-enter society” I might need to make my OMAD dinner... don’t want to miss out on social happy hours & dinners when it’s safe to do so!!
Thank you for more good info Dr. Fung. You have helped me so much on my journey!
You explained it all in one video… loved it 😊
It's all about habits....I've lost 30 kg by eating breakfast, light lunch and a cup of tea dinner time. That's why they say “Breakfast like a king; lunch like a prince; dinner like a pauper.”
Skipping dinner is easier for me instead
@@maypong2007 That's the best thing you can do for your body. Good luck
@@maypong2007 me too 👍🏽
Yes! I am hungry in the morning. My appetite is low in the evening.
I just love him and I'll be thankful for him sharing his knowledge for the rest of my life!
Thank you Dr. Fung! I appreciate your knowledge and your hard work. God Bless you!
Hello Dr Jason Fung, thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge, I started my intermittent fasting just last year...so effective I gradually losing weight. More power to you👍😇
Great video! I started Intermittent fasting about a year ago and dropped 30 lbs. in about 3 months. I gained half back due to my own negligence, but I am ready to get back on track and drop that 100 lbs. that I so desperately need to do. I don't feel like I lost, I felt like I learned and now I know how to do this effectively. I will continue to watch your videos for continued support. Thanks Dr. Fung!!
I skip dinner instead because my stomach is gonna be bloated while I'm sleeping and my family typically skips dinner instead but when we have relatives or people over, we have dinner and skip breakfast. And we skip dinner because we just want to sleep early and rest for the day. We just usually drink tea at night.
Brilliant as usual, Dr. Fung !!! Thank you.
Thanks,
respected dr Jason fung for this video.I learned many things from your many videos and incorporating those in my daily routine ,and ultimately reaping valuable benefits from that..
long live sir...
You are a great treasure of the mankind and an extremely talented genius.
I never feel hungry in the evening. Mostly in the morning: one hour after I get up (5 am) and around 8 am... But I'm doing this intermittent fasting, so I stop eating after 6 pm until 10 am. Yes, I feel hungry, but I have no problem not to eat. I like to be hungry, because then I know my body is asking for food. I don't like to eat when I don't feel hungry... I lost already 9 kg in the last two months when I started intermittant fasting.
Wow imagine doctors actually telling patients to read books like The Obesity Code and not just telling them to move more. We're heading in the right direction I guess.
💯👍
Heading in the right direction when you're guided by someone that's not educated on the subject and are constantly wrong just to sell books..? Good luck with that! 😂
@@PSA78 He is also a doctor bro , and also most endochronolgist's agree with fasting a low carb diet for type 2's.
@@mynameis______392 MD's are not educated on diets by default, and are very rarely informed at all on the subject. This one is just worse than most, that's all. 😂
@@PSA78 where did you get your medical education? Any conscientious doctor can and should learn about nutrition ( not just 4 hrs in med school). Our endocrine system operates all body functions. So being concise, logical and knowledgeable with tons of experience, as Dr. Fung, is the worst ? Your generalized accusations don’t make you right. Just hot air 🎈
Love all your videos Dr.Fung! Thank you👍🌟
