I have been on a year long journey for weight loss and health, I have been listening and watching. I have been experimenting with several things and track which work the best, also based off the science I have learned from here and several other content creators that are doctors. My perfect hack is this which is working. 12oz of room temperature coffee with 20 grams of protein powder(organic grass feed protein), 2 raw eggs(I know it sounds gross but you don’t taste it nor feel the raw egg), scoop of MCT oil, scoop of ketone powder- blend and drink over 30 minutes. Yes I wait 2 hours after waking up before drinking. 3hrs later I work out for 45-60 minutes. Weight lifting followed by 20-35 minutes cardio, I make a 32 oz water bottle with scoop of electrolytes and just 3 grams of creative and 3 grams of amino acids. Drink before, during and after workout. 32 oz spread out over 2-3 hours. Then 2 medium meals 600-900 calories each. Both meals are high animal protein bas(red meat, fish, chicken, pork, all lean cuts) the first meal will have 15-30 grams of a good green vegetable. The second meal no carbs. So first calories of day is 0900, next meal 12-1pm, last meal 3pm. The evening and overnight starts a intermittent fast, the MCT/ketone with protein drink extend fast and provide energy for workout, creatine with electrolytes during work out force water into the muscle to feed the workout, thus in ketosis, the body will use the water from fat cells as you burn fat in ketosis during workout. Then feed the body afterwards. June 1St 2023 486lbs, I am down to 260lbs. During this process I would say I didn’t lose any muscle, but gain muscle in the right areas. If I lost muscle, it would be in my legs that needed it to move my fat body around. Yes I 36hr fast every 3rd week and do the 4 day fast every 5 months as a reset. Listen to Dr Mindy, it works what she says. And always change macros to throw the body off.
This was so helpful thank you!! I did the Dutch test and discovered that my cortisol is not metabolizing well. Can you please do a video on cortisol metabolism and what to do about it? Absolutely love your presence in this world, thank you for your beautiful energy!
Lost 20 lbs between January and April. I varied my fasts and lost more doing 36 hour and also incorporated HIIT training. Thank you for all the tools and hacks!
So pleased to have you giving these advices. I started fasting 2 weeks ago ( I might be doing too much cause I did 2 times the 36h last week but this week I did the 48h one so I might need to slow down a bit -feel free to give me advice). I do feel better even if there's no significant changes but patience and nurturing is the key so I'm confident in it
@@MLM111 LOL you, no content, no views and 13 subs. Yeah, just another bot account. You know generating false views to pump up channel monetary funds is not right? right? It's dishonest. People can see for themselves. Bye.
Thank you for all the videos and knowledge you have shared. It works for me too. I started IF for the last 6 months (16hrs - 18hrs) and have so much more energy than when I ate regularly 2-3 meals daily. Recently, I have a prolong cough and some kind of chest infection, doctor prescribed antibiotic for me. I looked at it and remembered one of your videos explained that when you're fasting, your body will rebuild its cells, pushing out toxin etc... so I went on fasting for a straight 4 days. My illness was clearing up afterward, i.e. no more coughing. My chest congestion was also gone and best of all the prescribed antibiotic tablets go to the back of my cupboard now 🙂 Thank you for sharing your great knowledge and helping us all! (I have also registered to get your new book "Eat Like a Girl" and can't wait to read the book - scheduled to arrive in November)
Hello Dr. Pelz, I absolutely love your content. I was Prediabetic last year with Hgb A1c= 6.1 and admitted to hospital with pancreatitis. I ended up with a sphincter polyp that was removed. At the beginning of the year i was still 310lbs and struggling with my weight. I did my 1st fast on feb 25 for 72 hours and have done an additional 2 120hour fasts. I've lost 60lbs in less than 60 days and now my Hgb A1c is 4.5 Instead of exercise or HIIT training, I cleaned my whole house and garage/tools. Sort of constant activity. I have also been Lacofermenting my vegetables for nutrition benefit. Just wanted to give you a shout out. I'm an RN and hope to motivate many of my patients with these techniques that have been super transformational.
I’ve loss 10 lbs in 4 weeks. I’m having a hard time eating a lot of protein and fat. I limit my carbs a lot. But, I’m mainly eating chicken or salmon with veggies, maybe 3 eggs per week. I mostly look forward to eating strawberries, raspberries, pecans and chia seeds. I’ve done intermittent fasting. Starting off at 16 hours then easily worked up to 18 hours and have done 20 hours a couple of times. I prefer more of a Mediterranean diet. So, I’m easing my way onto that. I have 10 more pounds to go to get to my goal. But this was a good way to jump start my weight loss. This is the first time in my life that I needed to lose this much and I know it’s because I was quitting smoking and just ate way too many carbs. I plan on starting an exercise routine of walking 1 hour before work and walking worked very well for me in the past. Thank you!

Sounds like you know what you can and can’t do to make things work. Good for you. No “diet” works if you can’t stick to it. Sounds like you found the one for you. Do try to get your protein in, though. Muscle can break down during weight loss if you don’t get enough plus, fatigue can hit you harder. You can do it. I believe in you!
May I ask what was your starting weight? Also, what is your fasting schedule like. I am struggling to lose 10 pounds. Do you follow a macro plan? Hope to hear from you.
Keep a journal of the last bite of food you consume so you can track your first 17-18 hours....then push yourself to 24 to 36 plus hours. Then when you are comfortable, you push yourself to 72 hours depending on your schedule.
I’m using the FASTIC app, no more counting hours and it keeps track of your week. I’m using the free version and it doesn’t ask me to pay to continue because all others did after about a week. 😊
You have changed my life! I love the body I live in after 20 years of trying. Excercise that only made me big and tired in the past has worked so fast thanks to being combined with fasting. On a good morning, I have visible abs. Thank you !
Dr. Pelz, You are such a great motivator..When I go on walks, my favorite thing I listen to are your podcasts. Please keep up this great work and keep motivating so many women out there who need this desperately. I was able to change understanding my fasting pattern.. all credit to you and your book ‘Fast like a girl’.
The cold shower is superb but since not most people would be able to do to boost metabolism . You can consider cold cotton wrap on stomach neck and forehead for 30mins. As proven in Indian Ayurveda it increases metabolism and also helps movement of fat and hence has many target oriented approach . I am doing it since past 20days even during my periods and I can see a good result all in all .
Thank you so much Dr for these very helpful videos. I started intermittent fasting a few months ago and have started exercising more a week ago. I’m a 64 yr old diabetic with COPD having a hard time losing my tummy area. I’m not going to give up and listening to you certainly helps.
Good afternoon Mindy, I’ve been fasting for 7+ years now it has changed my life. I found you after following Dr Berg and love your work. I had a hysterectomy (partial I still have my ovaries) about 7years ago…..my question is as a 51 year old woman who is now seeing the scale move upwards to a place I’m not comfortable with. I have no idea where I am in my cycle! 🤔 Trying to get enough protein in when eating just 2 meals a day is so difficult for me. It seems like so much food! I’ll typically eat 3-4 eggs half avocado for my first meal and usually a steak preferably or protein and salad for dinner. Usually only hitting 80-100 grams of protein. I know I’m hitting or in menopause 😢 so after listening to you, I have stopped the Omed fasting daily and shake it up a bit now, sometimes I’ll eat three meals for one day, other days I’ll just do two and then other days I’ll do one, and sometimes I throw one at 36 , for something that used to be easy for me after I started the fasting lifestyle things are not working the same way, any suggestions would be beneficial. I do exercise either being hot power yoga, rebounding workouts, hikes/ walks and I do weights 1-2 week. Starting to loose my mind over this while trying not to loose my mind over this! 😂 Am I eating to much or to little? Just when I thought I had it all figured out… now I’m confused. Tracy
You are doing great with trying different variations! You will find what works best for you. If your goal is muscle building, to get in a lot of protein, it really is eating protein every couple hours. I'm cheering you on 💙🎉
Recently I also heard Dr. Berg say in a video that Ashwaganda reduces cortisol levels. I bought some powder and I will start taking it at night with some herb tea. See if that helps and try to fix our sleep schedule so that we put our growth hormones to work for us. I need to make several changes too. Dr. Pelz is a treasure. Thank you Dr. Pelz.
Tracy, I am in the exact same situation as you and intermittent fasting stopped working for me in the last year, I have literally tried everything , following Dr Mindy and Dr Berg, to get out of this plateau, but nothing has really worked, so my conclusion is that it can only be high cortisol, so trying hard to bring that down. Getting enough Protein has also been a problem for me, but recently I started taking protein powder, and I feel great, no cravings and I feel satiated all the time
If you watch Dr Barbie Taylor (menopause educator) on UA-cam, she says that a hysterectomy is instant menopause. You should look into getting your hormones in check. That will help you tremendously for avoiding heart disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes and a ton of other issues that can go wrong as we age. I’ve also had a partial hysterectomy and I’m almost 64 and wish I knew all of this info when I was your age. Best of luck 😘🙏
@@SparklyOnethank I know I’m in menopause I’m going to be 52 this year and I did have a Dutch test done I’m just wondering where I am hoping at the tail end so this yo-yo life on the scale will stop! So frustrating that what once worked isn’t working anymore. The learning curve for women and diet is frustrating enough to raise cortisol lol😂 I’ve cut out coffee this week so we shall see if this helps with cortisol for me specifically in the mornings! Fingers crossed
Every time I’m desperate and I listen to your videos, I get hope again. Im struggling because I stopped smoking and try not to focus back on sugar. I do intermittent fasting, one meal a day sometimes, but it doesn’t seem to work. Maybe too much of sports and fasting. Anyway, I’m French and read your books in English, hope they will be translated in French soon ! Love, Claire
God bless you Claire🎉 Claire is my name too ⭐️💟⭐️ Love your country! You’re so lucky the French have always been so natural! I was named after “clair de lune”
@Mindy Reading Fast Like A Girl. Im now on Day 7 of the 30 day Advanced Fasting Reset. Ive done a 'loose' version of Keto/low carb eating and needed to clean up and get serious. I love having a plan! Thank You!
Great infom, thank you. the only thing I would add is when doing HIIT, it is super important to get the HR back under 100 before doing another HIIT. otherwise your cortisol will go crazy high. For most of us this would mean that we are doing 30 seconds on and as much as five minutes off.
I have been fasting for 2 days a week now and I’m doing 3 days this week. My whole fasting journey started when I saw dr Pelz on another podcast. I just recently bought her book and I’m excited to read it and see how I can improve my fasting methods as a woman 🙏
OMG, I love your shirt! Your message is great too. I have been following you for awhile. Bought your book Fast Like A Girl on pre-order. Got off track, and am coming back to your message. Thanks for all you do.
Dr. Mindy pilz I’ve been listening and watching your videos since January 🫶👌intimate fasting amazing changed my life forever thank you very helpful 🎊 ❤
I started not eating past 2pm. It is the greatest thing! I feel so much better. Lots of fruits and veggies, a big meal like salad with chicken , protein, whatever I eat, I cut myself off at 12-2pm.
You are amazing! I have been faithful in your regime. It’s been changing my life. I have seen weight drop off my body. I have tried various things and nothing has worked- this has worked for me and it’s amazing. Thank you.
Dr. Mindy, you are the best. I want to share with you my routine to double check if I am on right track😁 I do strength training 5 times/week for 45 mins, after that 20 min walk on treadmill. I am in calorie deficit diet and hitting my protein target. Now I will add one day autophagy fasting in a week. My goal is body composition. Burning fat and building muscles. How good I am going according to you. I would be so happy to hear from you. Thank you for the knowledge you are providing💯👍
The last time someone told me to take care of myself was… I cannot remember. Thank you for the last 15 minutes of this segment. You are on point with dealing with the dysfunction first!!
To all wonderful women, on this beautiful journey toward a better physique, peace and well-being; I recently tried carnivore, and I gained a few pounds, because I decided to add dairy to the protocol. I wasn’t eating too much dairy, but obviously my body does not like certain animal products. You might need to experiment and see which foods give you inflammation. I do really well on most meats, plus avocado, plus a little bit of nuts and seeds. I didn’t really need to lose weight, I went on carnivore because of long covid and neurotoxicity (I had one root canal, I have removed it a year ago). What I am trying to say is, there might be different factors why your body is not responding well to fasting. You might want to check for neurotoxicity like heavy metals in your body. If you do have elevated levels, I would recommend intervenous chelation.
Could you please cover the topic of Lipedema. Women are fighting with lipedema in every corner of the world and don't want to go for liposuction and want to lose that hard to lose fat naturally.
This video by far is rich in information. This was informative and lots of editing to compile. I felt like I just had an overload. Thank you much for your research and my happy perimenopause life thanks to you. I did start heavy lifting again and will continue until my last breath. ❤
You have taught me too eat better, fast, and exercise. I have quit drinking soda. Eating meat from a butcher, good vegetables. And shopping the outside of the store. I'm pumped. Ready to lose 30 lbs. Thank you.
Hello Dr. Mindy! I'm new to your community on here, and I'm very excited about all the things you're saying. I'm 23, 4 ft 10 in, and weigh about 128-130 pounds. I've only started struggling with weight gain in the last two years, and prior to that was never over 110 pounds at my heaviest. I've done fasting in the past, but never made a conscious effort to balance my hormones, as I thought I had years before they would start to affect my weight. I'm curious, what would you recommend in terms of exercise /routine for targeting stubborn belly fat, love handles/back fat, and excess bloating? I also want to lose fat and gain muscle in my thighs and glutes. Any info would be so helpful 😁
Dr. Mindy Pelz, I love your channel and education! I have a question about using this system. It's kind of complicated... I am unable to do this hiit training due to having brain surgery recently in April. I have balance/vertigo and other issues. It has been a hard cpl of years, I also had ankle surgery in 2022 that still has issues. I'm not obese but see the scale going in the wrong direction. I've always been pretty healthy and fit my whole life, so this is discouraging... I found out through blood work that I'm also menopausal officially! Woo hoo!!!🎉 I love your fasting program and used it before both surgeries to get as close as possible to my ideal weight, but for obvious reasons, (lengthy recovery and bed rest) the weight has crept back up. I was also in the hosp for dbl pneumonia in July, which I'm still healing from, and my doctor put me on new meds suspecting asthma, which I'm going to get checked to rule out by pulmonary. What can I do!?!? I'm so miserable, everything has been taken from me. I can't do any of the things I used to do! 😢 and I want to be healthy and fit again! I've been looking at chair yoga for an option, but I know that isn't going to hit what you're talking about and certain movements I can't do because of head issues aforementioned. Please help!
I'm 52 and attempting to do the 36 hr fast work the 12hr eating window for 30 days. I've hypothyroidism since my early 30s which is under control with medication. I can't do much of HIIT due to worn out joints around my ankle and knees and back - years of excessive dancing as I used to be a professional dancer. Hoping to drop at least 20 kgs and the 30 day regime will help with that. Onto my 2nd round now..
I just completed 10 wks of internment fast ing. Primarily for weight loss but also for post menopause improvement. Weight is coming off however I feel my body is a great acclimater! Gets wise to my plans. I'm grateful for all your videos. Finished my menopause reset book. Which will revisit frequently.❤
I can’t find this free fasting guide in the description. Could you please share. Perhaps I missed it. Thanks a lot for the guidance Dr Mindy Peltz. I started watching your videos very recently. Love the science facts and research work that you mention in your videos. Complete eye opener. Started my fasting journey. Hoping for the best 😊
*Water transfers heat away from the body at a **_MUCH HIGHER RATE_** than AIR does.* Therefore, if you go the 58 degree AIR route you need to stay undressed in that environment for *_FAR LONGER_* than the 1-2 minutes you need in water to get the same effect.
I live in TX. Eight months of the year out faucet choices are “Hot” and “Not as Hot.” Don’t think I can achieve 58 degrees except between Halloween and Valentine’s
Same (Houston). My A/C recently went out & it took 5 days to get it repaired, house interior was 92F at night so I tried to cool down with a cold shower before bed each night but the cold water tap was warm! Guess we’ll have to wait for a cold front to try this shower tip ;-).
@@cynthiaschaeffer650 on the plus side, I think we’re supposed to have a short summer this year (farmer’s almanac maybe?), so maybe this early Sep cool front is here to stay 🤞
This has given me hope that maybe I can lose fat from my thighs! I've always thought it wasn't possible...I'm going to try longer fasts and heavier weights. Thank-you for the tips!
I do 45 seconds on 15 seconds rest. Is it better to do 30,30? And what if health issues impact fasting? I have a strange issue of 15 years where I wake up around 5-6am with a burning acid pain in stomach (likely stress and food related however nothings helped including anti acids, ACV and meditation is best) but only thing that helps is 1/3-1/2 of milk. I suspect then fasting won’t help as interrupted by milk after 8hrs.
I love listening to Dr Mindy. I have different information from Glucose Goddess and others that shows that the first food to eat in any meal for ideal glucose metabolism would be high fiber VEGGIES. Then protein. Thoughts?
Thank you for your wonderful guidance and teaching style. I was wondering if there was a particular blood glucose monitor you would recommend. Whatever is going to do the best job for me to track any and all things that I need to focus on for healing (leaky gut, Hashimotos, sleep issues, etc.) I eat omad 5 days a week. It is usually ketovore. Not dirty. I take no medications anymore and fired my old school doctor. I have no problem fasting, but as my A1C was 5.6 (why I started my health journey) I don't want to break one problem (like my metabolism) while fixing another. It took over a year to heal some autoimmune issues (vitiligo, eczema, sleep issues,) and now I am losing about a pound every week or two. I'm feeling my energy come back and my brain fog seems gone. I have even had 1/2 my ear cut off from a skin cancer and with fasting etc. it all grew back perfectly (no surgery needed.) Thank you for all you do. Your common sense wisdom and experience is bringing hope to many! 🥰👍

Hi Dr. Mindy, I've just recently come across your content after hearing you on Jay Shetty's podcast and I've been binging everything I can find. I'm a mom to 3 boys and am just about to turn 41. I used to be very lean and healthy and run 3 miles a day but then life got busy and I gained about an extra 30 lbs. I committed in January to refocusing my priorities on exercising 35-40 minutes 5 days a week which includes weight lifting all 5 days and tracking macros but for the last 10 months I've maybe lost a couple pounds. I know my body composition is changing but I'm very frustrated about not being able to shed any weight. My question is- I wake up at 5:30am to workout before I get my kids up for school. If I incorporate daily fasting I just don't know what that would look like for my day since my goal is to continue to build muscle but also shed fat. Can you point me in the direction of your resources that can help me with this?
Great video - packed a lot of solid information in a sequences that made it easy to take in and process. This popped up in my feed very fortuitously, just what I was looking for. Thank you for all the hard work you put into these!
Hey Dr. Mindy, thank you for everything you share with the world. I know you have a lot of information about gut health and balancing the microbiome, my question is do you have any information or know of any research on balancing the bacteria in the vagina and how imbalances there might influence the rest of the microbes in your body? I think I’ve heard there are specific bacteria needed to provide balance there.
Hi Dr I'm just 36 due to fibroid in my utres I had hysterectomy in March it's been almost 3months now Please please suggest me what kind of fasting I should follow now
Thank you so much for mentioning the difference of that acute stress of a sudden terrible event or events in comparison with the day to day stress of things that brings anxiety constantly in the background of our lives. Yes, I've lost weight fast in a couple of days from that acute stress and gained all back and more really fast once I was back to the day to day stress and anxiety.
Love all your advice. Your "Is it a puff or a pitt"? Just recently got a Rebounder. I hit it about 3 minutes several times a day and my Pitts are coming back. It's amazing what simple things will help our health. Thank you!
Your videos are a blessing!! Thank you so much for your expertise. Do you have any information for women losing weight with gallstones? Because there’s a lot we can’t eat especially eggs and back then eggs were my go-to, to lose weight and feel satiated.
I appreciate the advice on the over scheduling life and the deal with major life stresses like dysfunctional relationships and so forth. I find that exercise is one of the best ways to deal with stress
Thank you as always! I've adopted a fasting lifestyle and lost a lot of fat, but then fell off the bandwagon by eating very poorly and not exercising. I also have extreme hot and cold flashes with fatigue and weight gain. It's hard on the adrenals to fast, so I am not sure what I should do to I get on track. I also am struggling with severe bloating. Thank you!
Are you experiencing menopause? If the problem is hormonal, this could be the culprit. I would do some thorough research into natural supplements and herbs depending on what symptoms you are experiencing.
To learn more about bloating, consider your microbiome: "Your Gut Microbiome How to Build, Maintain & Repair Gut Health" ua-cam.com/video/Yt3dDUupUq8/v-deo.html For your Adrenals: ua-cam.com/video/IG3UUyDPvNs/v-deo.html
I had same issue. I added powdered magnesium and all my Bs, especially benfotiamine and B12. It helped a lot. Then I did a regular schedule cycling Magnesium and Berberine. There's more, but this is a start.
I came across your video this morning at 6am. I have been struggling with my weight now for about 10 years. I was in a vehicle accident, and I broke my right knee, tore my left knee & left shoulder. I have 4 herniated lower discs, which now makes it harder for me to exercise, but I walk when I'm able. I also have an under active thyroid and insulin resistance. Is your book available at Barns & Noble? And how can I get your free fasting 101 guide to start my new health journey . Please help with any encouraging suggestions.
I'm sure with a little bit more push and focus, we can achieve our end goal! You can pre-order the book through this link: bit.ly/elagsocial 💙 Dr. Mindy's Team
I stopped craving the sugary foods when eating protein and veggies, but I see it at a party or at my mom's and I lose all willpower. I don't think losing weight should be a miserable experience, though. It's in the 90s in TX so keeping A/C super low will be way too $$$. Not sure heart disease patients are supposed to shock the system with cold showers. Makes me nervous. Maybe when I get employed, leave this marriage, and can move on, I'll be successful.
Hi dr Mindy, how are you? The biggest problem that i am facing now, is how to keep, store (freezer) and take my foods and drinks along if i want to avoid plastics. Because if you do find glas foodco tainers to take along they always have plastic lids (i live in Holland). And are plastic water bottles that say they are bpa free also toxic (or can they still be toxic)?Beside the benefit of weightloss due to low toxins another great benefit is also reduced acne/rashes and or pimples and better skin overal. Also have i switched deodorant and the funny thing is the one im using now, even if i might forget to use it one day i dont even smell so now i am just figuring out how many times i week i would like to use it and how many days can i be eau naturel after a (cold) showe. Thank you so much for everyting
Thank you for this video I need to get your book fast like a girl. I will be 40 in October. I’m pre diabetic on insulin that I haven’t been able to fill in over a month because they are out of stock. I weigh 225 at 5’8” my lowest weight in the past 10 years has only been 211 and max 235. I’m on 2 blood pressure medication plus aspirin. I want this weight off. I technically have 3 jobs. A full time and two casual jobs. I have a 15year old son. What I’m saying is I have so much going on. All I want for my birthday or even Christmas is to weigh less than 200lbs 😭. I know I can do it. I’m hoping these tips can help me. I can’t believe I just told all my personal business on here 😂
How about SIT training? It's said to be more effective than HIIT. There was a Norwegian research about it... 20 sek of giving your all and 2 minutes of active reating (for example 2 sek run spurt and 2 minute walking) repeated 3 times.
I don't think it would break your fast, but sipping on something acidic all day is terrible for your teeth. Apparently best to drink in one go, wait 30min before brushing
Been eating one low carb meal every 40 hours for the last two weeks .Feeling amazing , losing a lot of weight .I am not new to fasting , your videos are very inspirational,motivating and helpful Thank you so much
Fasting has worked for me, but it was when I upped my protein, ( and it wasn't easy) and the weight came off and I was eating A LOT!. When I backed off of that, the weight was back, BOOM! Fasting is the way to go. There is a lot of maligning of protein, but I have always felt better eating meat. I try my best to eat clean humanely raised food, sea caught fish.
Thank you for the information. I’ve been doing IF and keto with a little success, but want to stop eating meat and so much dairy - so bad for the environment. Is it possible to do keto as a vegetarian? I suppose it doesn’t help to not really liking tofu. Can one be get to ketosis eating legumes - seems like that would be too many carbs.
Great Video. I am one of these women which try hard, train hard, eat too less, sleep to less and because of Fibromyalgie and Hashimoto all these stressed me and I couldn loose more than 2kg in five month. Now I do a break because of pain, my body showed me its too much and I have to change my strategy. At the moment I am only caring for me, eating lot of protein and walking 10.000 steps a day. Would like to ptactice your tips with fasting, HIIT, strengh training😢 My question: should I do all these points every day? Ore e.g. three days a week and the other days relax, good nutrition and walking. How often fast, 17 h, 24 h, 48 ore 72???
I've lost so much weight all over with fasting and i walk everyday and also workout a few days a week, but the buttocks seems stubborn. Any tips please Mindy? ☺️ x
Hi, thank you (and partners, interviewers, and your team!) as always for these fast-astic 🙂 videos! About this morning coffee during the fasting window, why not trying a short espresso (stong taste, mild in cafeine), adding hot water in your cup to have a long coffee-like for you but a low-cafeine for your body (= less cortisol?)... Could this work? (here in Europe, CGMs are not used much but for diabetic people)
The whole 58 degrees segment makes me think that perhaps its a benefit when I do my walking outside on a crisp fall morning. 🍂 I am one of those who has excess at the tops of my thighs.
Dearest Dr Mindy, or anyone else can answer. If have 50 kg to lose, I eat well, Mediterranean fish mainly smoked salmon or prawns, eggs, avo, veges fruit but then tend to compliment it with a Coca-Cola & Freddo Frog (small chocolate)! My problem is if I haven't eaten for a while I get low blood sugar, shakey, gotta eat something. Does this mean I'm insulin resistant & there's no hope for me?!

Dr Mindy great subject What do u think about drinking water if always cold freezing be warm water how that help metabolism ? Fat ! Any insight on that ! Thanks
I have a basic Fat Burner question: is the liver still "digesting" when we're burning fat, and therefore would bile salts, which I use periodically with a meal, also be helpful for liver metabolism during Fasting?
What I tend to do is fast 18 hours, and 14 hours in I walk 45 minutes at a speed of 5.5km p hour. That whips up my heartrate. Than I drink 200ml to make up for fluids I lost. Do you think that works as good as HIIT?
I am a breastfeeding mom (exclusively) who gained a lot of weight from my first pregnancy with my first baby and now after recent delivering my second baby two months ago,, also this delivery was traumatic as well as I developed preeclampsia so it was a emergency C-Section,, I really want to lose the weight but I cannot! I can’t do any diets because I’m exclusively breastfeeding my baby🤲🏻 I worry the milk supply will drop,, so I’m stuck, some women lose weight while breastfeeding,, I’m the kind who gains weight while breastfeeding because of the increase of hunger😢. Before having kids I used to looooove fasting it made me so light and happy and felt great, but now I would love to fast but I can’t do that while breastfeeding 🤱 ,,, is there any chance I can fast? Any advice?😢
Learned so much from How to Burn body Fat Extremely Fast! thank you! And.... I don't have fat thighs. Never really have. Very strong for 70. But, belly/visceral fat is where it started collecting on me at least 55 years ago. Yup! So... white fat eh? Okay... I'll start working with that. Cold hmmm... 58* okay. Dont't have a shower, only bath, while finishing house. I guess it will be learning the cold plunge. Will doing all the things to build thigh muscles help to take from white midriff and belly fat?
Doctor, Your words made me lose 8 pounds in 3 weeks! You are the guiding star🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤I am 58 years old. Not starving. But living my life!❤❤❤
Wohoo!! Congratulations on your fasting achievements! 🙌🎉🎉
I’m the same age well 5 this month what are you doing if I can ask
I have been on a year long journey for weight loss and health, I have been listening and watching. I have been experimenting with several things and track which work the best, also based off the science I have learned from here and several other content creators that are doctors. My perfect hack is this which is working. 12oz of room temperature coffee with 20 grams of protein powder(organic grass feed protein), 2 raw eggs(I know it sounds gross but you don’t taste it nor feel the raw egg), scoop of MCT oil, scoop of ketone powder- blend and drink over 30 minutes. Yes I wait 2 hours after waking up before drinking. 3hrs later I work out for 45-60 minutes. Weight lifting followed by 20-35 minutes cardio, I make a 32 oz water bottle with scoop of electrolytes and just 3 grams of creative and 3 grams of amino acids. Drink before, during and after workout. 32 oz spread out over 2-3 hours. Then 2 medium meals 600-900 calories each. Both meals are high animal protein bas(red meat, fish, chicken, pork, all lean cuts) the first meal will have 15-30 grams of a good green vegetable. The second meal no carbs. So first calories of day is 0900, next meal 12-1pm, last meal 3pm. The evening and overnight starts a intermittent fast, the MCT/ketone with protein drink extend fast and provide energy for workout, creatine with electrolytes during work out force water into the muscle to feed the workout, thus in ketosis, the body will use the water from fat cells as you burn fat in ketosis during workout. Then feed the body afterwards. June 1St 2023 486lbs, I am down to 260lbs. During this process I would say I didn’t lose any muscle, but gain muscle in the right areas. If I lost muscle, it would be in my legs that needed it to move my fat body around. Yes I 36hr fast every 3rd week and do the 4 day fast every 5 months as a reset. Listen to Dr Mindy, it works what she says. And always change macros to throw the body off.
Wow!! 👏👏👏
YOU are so amazing- well done! 👏👏Thank you for sharing your incredible results and journey. Keep me posted on your progress. 🙌

This was so helpful thank you!! I did the Dutch test and discovered that my cortisol is not metabolizing well. Can you please do a video on cortisol metabolism and what to do about it? Absolutely love your presence in this world, thank you for your beautiful energy!
Lost 20 lbs between January and April. I varied my fasts and lost more doing 36 hour and also incorporated HIIT training. Thank you for all the tools and hacks!
So awesome- thank you for sharing 🙏
Wow! What kind of HITT training did you do? Also what was your starting weight?

So pleased to have you giving these advices. I started fasting 2 weeks ago ( I might be doing too much cause I did 2 times the 36h last week but this week I did the 48h one so I might need to slow down a bit -feel free to give me advice). I do feel better even if there's no significant changes but patience and nurturing is the key so I'm confident in it
@@MLM111 LOL you, no content, no views and 13 subs. Yeah, just another bot account. You know generating false views to pump up channel monetary funds is not right? right? It's dishonest. People can see for themselves. Bye.
Thank you for all the videos and knowledge you have shared. It works for me too. I started IF for the last 6 months (16hrs - 18hrs) and have so much more energy than when I ate regularly 2-3 meals daily.
Recently, I have a prolong cough and some kind of chest infection, doctor prescribed antibiotic for me. I looked at it and remembered one of your videos explained that when you're fasting, your body will rebuild its cells, pushing out toxin etc... so I went on fasting for a straight 4 days. My illness was clearing up afterward, i.e. no more coughing. My chest congestion was also gone and best of all the prescribed antibiotic tablets go to the back of my cupboard now 🙂
Thank you for sharing your great knowledge and helping us all! (I have also registered to get your new book "Eat Like a Girl" and can't wait to read the book - scheduled to arrive in November)
I slow down with a Dr Mindy and Dr Berg video. Always helpful.
Hello Dr. Pelz, I absolutely love your content. I was Prediabetic last year with Hgb A1c= 6.1 and admitted to hospital with pancreatitis. I ended up with a sphincter polyp that was removed. At the beginning of the year i was still 310lbs and struggling with my weight. I did my 1st fast on feb 25 for 72 hours and have done an additional 2 120hour fasts. I've lost 60lbs in less than 60 days and now my Hgb A1c is 4.5 Instead of exercise or HIIT training, I cleaned my whole house and garage/tools. Sort of constant activity. I have also been Lacofermenting my vegetables for nutrition benefit. Just wanted to give you a shout out. I'm an RN and hope to motivate many of my patients with these techniques that have been super transformational.
Congratulations, you do hard things! 🎉🙌 Thank you for sharing the education too! It takes all of us. 💙

I’ve loss 10 lbs in 4 weeks. I’m having a hard time eating a lot of protein and fat. I limit my carbs a lot. But, I’m mainly eating chicken or salmon with veggies, maybe 3 eggs per week. I mostly look forward to eating strawberries, raspberries, pecans and chia seeds. I’ve done intermittent fasting. Starting off at 16 hours then easily worked up to 18 hours and have done 20 hours a couple of times. I prefer more of a Mediterranean diet. So, I’m easing my way onto that. I have 10 more pounds to go to get to my goal. But this was a good way to jump start my weight loss. This is the first time in my life that I needed to lose this much and I know it’s because I was quitting smoking and just ate way too many carbs. I plan on starting an exercise routine of walking 1 hour before work and walking worked very well for me in the past. Thank you!
Thanks for watching @annie.76 - you're doing great! 🙌

Sounds like you know what you can and can’t do to make things work. Good for you. No “diet” works if you can’t stick to it. Sounds like you found the one for you. Do try to get your protein in, though. Muscle can break down during weight loss if you don’t get enough plus, fatigue can hit you harder. You can do it. I believe in you!
I’m with you, I personally have almost zero taste for beef. The Mediterranean diet suits my taste buds so well. Glad you are doing what works for you!
May I ask what was your starting weight? Also, what is your fasting schedule like. I am struggling to lose 10 pounds. Do you follow a macro plan?
Hope to hear from you.
More fat less protein
I have started walking with weights 2-3 days with fasting, loving how it makes me feel. ❤
So awesome- thank you for sharing! 💙
Keep a journal of the last bite of food you consume so you can track your first 17-18 hours....then push yourself to 24 to 36 plus hours. Then when you are comfortable, you push yourself to 72 hours depending on your schedule.
👍
Thank you
I’m using the FASTIC app, no more counting hours and it keeps track of your week. I’m using the free version and it doesn’t ask me to pay to continue because all others did after about a week. 😊
You have changed my life! I love the body I live in after 20 years of trying. Excercise that only made me big and tired in the past has worked so fast thanks to being combined with fasting. On a good morning, I have visible abs. Thank you !
So awesome! 🙌

Dr. Pelz, You are such a great motivator..When I go on walks, my favorite thing I listen to are your podcasts. Please keep up this great work and keep motivating so many women out there who need this desperately. I was able to change understanding my fasting pattern.. all credit to you and your book ‘Fast like a girl’.
Thank you for your kind words and support-I'm thrilled to hear that my podcasts and book have helped you with your fasting journey!
Your videos are not only educational, but enjoyable. You have a wonderful, cheery, funny personality. Blessings!
Thank you for watching 💙
💯
The cold shower is superb but since not most people would be able to do to boost metabolism . You can consider cold cotton wrap on stomach neck and forehead for 30mins. As proven in Indian Ayurveda it increases metabolism and also helps movement of fat and hence has many target oriented approach . I am doing it since past 20days even during my periods and I can see a good result all in all .
Thank you so much Dr for these very helpful videos. I started intermittent fasting a few months ago and have started exercising more a week ago. I’m a 64 yr old diabetic with COPD having a hard time losing my tummy area. I’m not going to give up and listening to you certainly helps.
You are so right with everything. I am fasting for 2 weeks now and lost 6 kg already.❤
Wow ! How did you do that? How to start?
Good afternoon Mindy,
I’ve been fasting for 7+ years now it has changed my life. I found you after following Dr Berg and love your work. I had a hysterectomy (partial I still have my ovaries) about 7years ago…..my question is as a 51 year old woman who is now seeing the scale move upwards to a place I’m not comfortable with. I have no idea where I am in my cycle! 🤔 Trying to get enough protein in when eating just 2 meals a day is so difficult for me. It seems like so much food! I’ll typically eat 3-4 eggs half avocado for my first meal and usually a steak preferably or protein and salad for dinner. Usually only hitting 80-100 grams of protein. I know I’m hitting or in menopause 😢 so after listening to you, I have stopped the Omed fasting daily and shake it up a bit now, sometimes I’ll eat three meals for one day, other days I’ll just do two and then other days I’ll do one, and sometimes I throw one at 36 , for something that used to be easy for me after I started the fasting lifestyle things are not working the same way, any suggestions would be beneficial. I do exercise either being hot power yoga, rebounding workouts, hikes/ walks and I do weights 1-2 week.
Starting to loose my mind over this while trying not to loose my mind over this! 😂
Am I eating to much or to little? Just when I thought I had it all figured out… now I’m confused.
Tracy
You are doing great with trying different variations! You will find what works best for you. If your goal is muscle building, to get in a lot of protein, it really is eating protein every couple hours. I'm cheering you on 💙🎉
Recently I also heard Dr. Berg say in a video that Ashwaganda reduces cortisol levels. I bought some powder and I will start taking it at night with some herb tea. See if that helps and try to fix our sleep schedule so that we put our growth hormones to work for us. I need to make several changes too. Dr. Pelz is a treasure. Thank you Dr. Pelz.
Tracy, I am in the exact same situation as you and intermittent fasting stopped working for me in the last year, I have literally tried everything , following Dr Mindy and Dr Berg, to get out of this plateau, but nothing has really worked, so my conclusion is that it can only be high cortisol, so trying hard to bring that down. Getting enough Protein has also been a problem for me, but recently I started taking protein powder, and I feel great, no cravings and I feel satiated all the time
If you watch Dr Barbie Taylor (menopause educator) on UA-cam, she says that a hysterectomy is instant menopause. You should look into getting your hormones in check. That will help you tremendously for avoiding heart disease, Alzheimer’s, diabetes and a ton of other issues that can go wrong as we age. I’ve also had a partial hysterectomy and I’m almost 64 and wish I knew all of this info when I was your age. Best of luck 😘🙏
@@SparklyOnethank I know I’m in menopause I’m going to be 52 this year and I did have a Dutch test done I’m just wondering where I am hoping at the tail end so this yo-yo life on the scale will stop! So frustrating that what once worked isn’t working anymore. The learning curve for women and diet is frustrating enough to raise cortisol lol😂 I’ve cut out coffee this week so we shall see if this helps with cortisol for me specifically in the mornings! Fingers crossed
Every time I’m desperate and I listen to your videos, I get hope again. Im struggling because I stopped smoking and try not to focus back on sugar. I do intermittent fasting, one meal a day sometimes, but it doesn’t seem to work. Maybe too much of sports and fasting. Anyway, I’m French and read your books in English, hope they will be translated in French soon ! Love, Claire
You're doing amazing! Keep it up! You've got this! 💪🙌
God bless you Claire🎉
Claire is my name too ⭐️💟⭐️

@Mindy Reading Fast Like A Girl. Im now on Day 7 of the 30 day Advanced Fasting Reset. Ive done a 'loose' version of Keto/low carb eating and needed to clean up and get serious. I love having a plan! Thank You!
🙏
Great infom, thank you. the only thing I would add is when doing HIIT, it is super important to get the HR back under 100 before doing another HIIT. otherwise your cortisol will go crazy high. For most of us this would mean that we are doing 30 seconds on and as much as five minutes off.
Thanks for the info
I was going to mention this too! I didn't get results until I lowered my heart rate more!
I had no clue this was a thing. Thank you. Will definitely be trying this♥️
Been saying this to everyone!! That's why I don't follow hiit classes. I do it on my own. Hill sprints are the best
Love you Dr. Mindy! I swing between you & Dr. Berg🎉💜🎉
My heroes! 💯🙌🏽✅
🙏
I have been fasting for 2 days a week now and I’m doing 3 days this week. My whole fasting journey started when I saw dr Pelz on another podcast. I just recently bought her book and I’m excited to read it and see how I can improve my fasting methods as a woman 🙏
You've got this! Cheering on you! 💪🙌

You took the steps and made the changes. You're a powerhouse! 🙌💙
Dr. Mindy, you are the best.
I want to share with you my routine to double check if I am on right track😁
I do strength training 5 times/week for 45 mins, after that 20 min walk on treadmill.
I am in calorie deficit diet and hitting my protein target.
Now I will add one day autophagy fasting in a week.
My goal is body composition. Burning fat and building muscles.
How good I am going according to you. I would be so happy to hear from you.
Thank you for the knowledge you are providing💯👍

You are on point with dealing with the dysfunction first!!

To all wonderful women, on this beautiful journey toward a better physique, peace and well-being; I recently tried carnivore, and I gained a few pounds, because I decided to add dairy to the protocol. I wasn’t eating too much dairy, but obviously my body does not like certain animal products. You might need to experiment and see which foods give you inflammation. I do really well on most meats, plus avocado, plus a little bit of nuts and seeds. I didn’t really need to lose weight, I went on carnivore because of long covid and neurotoxicity (I had one root canal, I have removed it a year ago). What I am trying to say is, there might be different factors why your body is not responding well to fasting. You might want to check for neurotoxicity like heavy metals in your body. If you do have elevated levels, I would recommend intervenous chelation.
Thank you for sharing your journey! 💙 So glad to hear you are experimenting and learning about what works for YOU. 🙌
Could you please cover the topic of Lipedema. Women are fighting with lipedema in every corner of the world and don't want to go for liposuction and want to lose that hard to lose fat naturally.

Hello Dr. Mindy! I'm new to your community on here, and I'm very excited about all the things you're saying. I'm 23, 4 ft 10 in, and weigh about 128-130 pounds. I've only started struggling with weight gain in the last two years, and prior to that was never over 110 pounds at my heaviest. I've done fasting in the past, but never made a conscious effort to balance my hormones, as I thought I had years before they would start to affect my weight. I'm curious, what would you recommend in terms of exercise /routine for targeting stubborn belly fat, love handles/back fat, and excess bloating? I also want to lose fat and gain muscle in my thighs and glutes. Any info would be so helpful 😁
Dr. Mindy Pelz, I love your channel and education! I have a question about using this system. It's kind of complicated... I am unable to do this hiit training due to having brain surgery recently in April. I have balance/vertigo and other issues. It has been a hard cpl of years, I also had ankle surgery in 2022 that still has issues. I'm not obese but see the scale going in the wrong direction. I've always been pretty healthy and fit my whole life, so this is discouraging... I found out through blood work that I'm also menopausal officially! Woo hoo!!!🎉 I love your fasting program and used it before both surgeries to get as close as possible to my ideal weight, but for obvious reasons, (lengthy recovery and bed rest) the weight has crept back up. I was also in the hosp for dbl pneumonia in July, which I'm still healing from, and my doctor put me on new meds suspecting asthma, which I'm going to get checked to rule out by pulmonary.
What can I do!?!?
I'm so miserable, everything has been taken from me. I can't do any of the things I used to do! 😢 and I want to be healthy and fit again!
I've been looking at chair yoga for an option, but I know that isn't going to hit what you're talking about and certain movements I can't do because of head issues aforementioned.
Please help!
I'm 52 and attempting to do the 36 hr fast work the 12hr eating window for 30 days. I've hypothyroidism since my early 30s which is under control with medication. I can't do much of HIIT due to worn out joints around my ankle and knees and back - years of excessive dancing as I used to be a professional dancer. Hoping to drop at least 20 kgs and the 30 day regime will help with that. Onto my 2nd round now..
You can do it!

Dr Mindy, you've changed my life! ❤

I just completed 10 wks of internment fast ing. Primarily for weight loss but also for post menopause improvement. Weight is coming off however I feel my body is a great acclimater! Gets wise to my plans. I'm grateful for all your videos. Finished my menopause reset book. Which will revisit frequently.❤
I can’t find this free fasting guide in the description. Could you please share. Perhaps I missed it. Thanks a lot for the guidance Dr Mindy Peltz. I started watching your videos very recently. Love the science facts and research work that you mention in your videos. Complete eye opener. Started my fasting journey. Hoping for the best 😊
Me neither!!
*Water transfers heat away from the body at a **_MUCH HIGHER RATE_** than AIR does.* Therefore, if you go the 58 degree AIR route you need to stay undressed in that environment for *_FAR LONGER_* than the 1-2 minutes you need in water to get the same effect.
So does that mean that when you are very cold in the winter, it has a similar therapeutic effect to a cold shower?
@@elwood10198 Depends on how long you're "very cold" and how cold "very cold" is.
@@KarGiver good points.
I live in TX. Eight months of the year out faucet choices are “Hot” and “Not as Hot.”
Don’t think I can achieve 58 degrees except between Halloween and Valentine’s
Same! I was thinking the same thing 😅 cold tap water is actually hot in the summer
Same. I have axolotls and have to add ice to their water. Hi from FtW!
Me too,in Phoenix Az
Same (Houston). My A/C recently went out & it took 5 days to get it repaired, house interior was 92F at night so I tried to cool down with a cold shower before bed each night but the cold water tap was warm! Guess we’ll have to wait for a cold front to try this shower tip ;-).
@@cynthiaschaeffer650 on the plus side, I think we’re supposed to have a short summer this
year (farmer’s almanac maybe?), so maybe this early Sep cool front is here to stay 🤞
This has given me hope that maybe I can lose fat from my thighs! I've always thought it wasn't possible...I'm going to try longer fasts and heavier weights. Thank-you for the tips!
You've got this! 💪
I do 45 seconds on 15 seconds rest. Is it better to do 30,30? And what if health issues impact fasting? I have a strange issue of 15 years where I wake up around 5-6am with a burning acid pain in stomach (likely stress and food related however nothings helped including anti acids, ACV and meditation is best) but only thing that helps is 1/3-1/2 of milk. I suspect then fasting won’t help as interrupted by milk after 8hrs.
I love listening to Dr Mindy. I have different information from Glucose Goddess and others that shows that the first food to eat in any meal for ideal glucose metabolism would be high fiber VEGGIES. Then protein. Thoughts?
Thank you for your wonderful guidance and teaching style. I was wondering if there was a particular blood glucose monitor you would recommend. Whatever is going to do the best job for me to track any and all things that I need to focus on for healing (leaky gut, Hashimotos, sleep issues, etc.) I eat omad 5 days a week. It is usually ketovore. Not dirty. I take no medications anymore and fired my old school doctor. I have no problem fasting, but as my A1C was 5.6 (why I started my health journey) I don't want to break one problem (like my metabolism) while fixing another. It took over a year to heal some autoimmune issues (vitiligo, eczema, sleep issues,) and now I am losing about a pound every week or two. I'm feeling my energy come back and my brain fog seems gone. I have even had 1/2 my ear cut off from a skin cancer and with fasting etc. it all grew back perfectly (no surgery needed.) Thank you for all you do. Your common sense wisdom and experience is bringing hope to many! 🥰👍

Hi Dr. Mindy, I've just recently come across your content after hearing you on Jay Shetty's podcast and I've been binging everything I can find. I'm a mom to 3 boys and am just about to turn 41. I used to be very lean and healthy and run 3 miles a day but then life got busy and I gained about an extra 30 lbs. I committed in January to refocusing my priorities on exercising 35-40 minutes 5 days a week which includes weight lifting all 5 days and tracking macros but for the last 10 months I've maybe lost a couple pounds. I know my body composition is changing but I'm very frustrated about not being able to shed any weight. My question is- I wake up at 5:30am to workout before I get my kids up for school. If I incorporate daily fasting I just don't know what that would look like for my day since my goal is to continue to build muscle but also shed fat. Can you point me in the direction of your resources that can help me with this?
Great video - packed a lot of solid information in a sequences that made it easy to take in and process. This popped up in my feed very fortuitously, just what I was looking for. Thank you for all the hard work you put into these!

Thank you so very much Dr. Mindy for your enthusiasm and your brilliant work and support! 🙏❤️🙏

Hey Dr. Mindy, thank you for everything you share with the world. I know you have a lot of information about gut health and balancing the microbiome, my question is do you have any information or know of any research on balancing the bacteria in the vagina and how imbalances there might influence the rest of the microbes in your body? I think I’ve heard there are specific bacteria needed to provide balance there.
Loved this video I have to see it twice, you are amazing Dr.Mindy !!! Thank you !

Hi Dr
I'm just 36 due to fibroid in my utres
I had hysterectomy in March it's been almost 3months now
Please please suggest me what kind of fasting I should follow now
Thank you so much for mentioning the difference of that acute stress of a sudden terrible event or events in comparison with the day to day stress of things that brings anxiety constantly in the background of our lives. Yes, I've lost weight fast in a couple of days from that acute stress and gained all back and more really fast once I was back to the day to day stress and anxiety.

58 degrees F (for me that's about 15 degrees C) is waaaay too cold for me to sleep in. I would be aching by the morning.
What kind of HIIT workout to do for belly fat?
Does this applies to belly fat as well?
I appreciate the advice on the over scheduling life and the deal with major life stresses like dysfunctional relationships and so forth. I find that exercise is one of the best ways to deal with stress

what type of protein do you eat on a typical day ex. breakfast, snacks ect. whey? bars? meat? yogurt
Here's a teaching video about protein: - Dr. Mindy's Teamua-cam.com/video/Q2NUG34_v-w/v-deo.html
Thank you as always! I've adopted a fasting lifestyle and lost a lot of fat, but then fell off the bandwagon by eating very poorly and not exercising. I also have extreme hot and cold flashes with fatigue and weight gain. It's hard on the adrenals to fast, so I am not sure what I should do to I get on track. I also am struggling with severe bloating. Thank you!
Are you experiencing menopause? If the problem is hormonal, this could be the culprit. I would do some thorough research into natural supplements and herbs depending on what symptoms you are experiencing.
To learn more about bloating, consider your microbiome: "Your Gut Microbiome How to Build, Maintain & Repair Gut Health"

I had same issue. I added powdered magnesium and all my Bs, especially benfotiamine and B12. It helped a lot. Then I did a regular schedule cycling Magnesium and Berberine. There's more, but this is a start.
I came across your video this morning at 6am. I have been struggling with my weight now for about 10 years. I was in a vehicle accident, and I broke my right knee, tore my left knee & left shoulder. I have 4 herniated lower discs, which now makes it harder for me to exercise, but I walk when I'm able.
I also have an under active thyroid and insulin resistance. Is your book available at Barns & Noble? And how can I get your free fasting 101 guide to start my new health journey .
Please help with any encouraging suggestions.
I'm sure with a little bit more push and focus, we can achieve our end goal! You can pre-order the book through this link: bit.ly/elagsocial

I stopped craving the sugary foods when eating protein and veggies, but I see it at a party or at my mom's and I lose all willpower. I don't think losing weight should be a miserable experience, though. It's in the 90s in TX so keeping A/C super low will be way too $$$. Not sure heart disease patients are supposed to shock the system with cold showers. Makes me nervous. Maybe when I get employed, leave this marriage, and can move on, I'll be successful.
I believe in you, you can do it get out of that marriage and go forward young lady! May God bless you along the way
Do it now. Life becomes more miserable when you make yourself wait to be happy.
I’ve found that when you fix other areas of your life, that positivity spills over into health.
Hi dr Mindy, how are you? The biggest problem that i am facing now, is how to keep, store (freezer) and take my foods and drinks along if i want to avoid plastics. Because if you do find glas foodco tainers to take along they always have plastic lids (i live in Holland). And are plastic water bottles that say they are bpa free also toxic (or can they still be toxic)?Beside the benefit of weightloss due to low toxins another great benefit is also reduced acne/rashes and or pimples and better skin overal. Also have i switched deodorant and the funny thing is the one im using now, even if i might forget to use it one day i dont even smell so now i am just figuring out how many times i week i would like to use it and how many days can i be eau naturel after a (cold) showe. Thank you so much for everyting
Can we have prawns and clams etc is that good?
Thank you for this video I need to get your book fast like a girl. I will be 40 in October. I’m pre diabetic on insulin that I haven’t been able to fill in over a month because they are out of stock. I weigh 225 at 5’8” my lowest weight in the past 10 years has only been 211 and max 235. I’m on 2 blood pressure medication plus aspirin. I want this weight off. I technically have 3 jobs. A full time and two casual jobs. I have a 15year old son. What I’m saying is I have so much going on. All I want for my birthday or even Christmas is to weigh less than 200lbs 😭. I know I can do it. I’m hoping these tips can help me. I can’t believe I just told all my personal business on here 😂
😁 You've got this! 💪
How about SIT training? It's said to be more effective than HIIT. There was a Norwegian research about it...
20 sek of giving your all and 2 minutes of active reating (for example 2 sek run spurt and 2 minute walking) repeated 3 times.
Would lemon in my water break my fast?
I put Celtic sea salt and lemon and drink on it all day
I don't think it would break your fast, but sipping on something acidic all day is terrible for your teeth. Apparently best to drink in one go, wait 30min before brushing
Been eating one low carb meal every 40 hours for the last two weeks .Feeling amazing , losing a lot of weight .I am not new to fasting , your videos are very inspirational,motivating and helpful Thank you so much
🙏
Is that the premise of cool sculpture? Just thinking. It would be cheaper to do an ice plunge!
Fasting has worked for me, but it was when I upped my protein, ( and it wasn't easy) and the weight came off and I was eating A LOT!. When I backed off of that, the weight was back, BOOM! Fasting is the way to go. There is a lot of maligning of protein, but I have always felt better eating meat. I try my best to eat clean humanely raised food, sea caught fish.
Thank you for the information. I’ve been doing IF and keto with a little success, but want to stop eating meat and so much dairy - so bad for the environment. Is it possible to do keto as a vegetarian? I suppose it doesn’t help to not really liking tofu. Can one be get to ketosis eating legumes - seems like that would be too many carbs.
Great Video. I am one of these women which try hard, train hard, eat too less, sleep to less and because of Fibromyalgie and Hashimoto all these stressed me and I couldn loose more than 2kg in five month. Now I do a break because of pain, my body showed me its too much and I have to change my strategy. At the moment I am only caring for me, eating lot of protein and walking 10.000 steps a day. Would like to ptactice your tips with fasting, HIIT, strengh training😢
My question: should I do all these points every day? Ore e.g. three days a week and the other days relax, good nutrition and walking. How often fast, 17 h, 24 h, 48 ore 72???
I've lost so much weight all over with fasting and i walk everyday and also workout a few days a week, but the buttocks seems stubborn. Any tips please Mindy? ☺️ x
Im definitely going to try this fasting,hit training and eating protein i can do this thanks Dr. Pelz❤
Me too! Don’t forget the weights!
Hi, thank you (and partners, interviewers, and your team!) as always for these fast-astic 🙂 videos!
About this morning coffee during the fasting window, why not trying a short espresso (stong taste, mild in cafeine), adding hot water in your cup to have a long coffee-like for you but a low-cafeine for your body (= less cortisol?)... Could this work? (here in Europe, CGMs are not used much but for diabetic people)
It is okay, don't put any sweeteners. 🙂

DR. Mindy, how would you recommend Carnivore while fasting.

The whole 58 degrees segment makes me think that perhaps its a benefit when I do my walking outside on a crisp fall morning. 🍂 I am one of those who has excess at the tops of my thighs.
🙌
What about the sodium in bone broth? …will that affect the fast?
No. 🙂

Ive noticed its easier to lose weight when im surfing in cold water vs hot / warm water, even if i use a wetsuit in cool / cold water (14-20 oC)
In UA-cam, you go in settings, click captions. Then click auto translate, and pick Spanish
Dearest Dr Mindy, or anyone else can answer. If have 50 kg to lose, I eat well, Mediterranean fish mainly smoked salmon or prawns, eggs, avo, veges fruit but then tend to compliment it with a Coca-Cola & Freddo Frog (small chocolate)! My problem is if I haven't eaten for a while I get low blood sugar, shakey, gotta eat something. Does this mean I'm insulin resistant & there's no hope for me?!

Dr Mindy great subject
What do u think about drinking water if always cold freezing be warm water how that help metabolism ? Fat ! Any insight on that ! Thanks
I have a basic Fat Burner question: is the liver still "digesting" when we're burning fat, and therefore would bile salts, which I use periodically with a meal, also be helpful for liver metabolism during Fasting?
Which part of the day should I fast for over 17 hours to get the result?
Does shivering sabotage the fat loss
No
What I tend to do is fast 18 hours, and 14 hours in I walk 45 minutes at a speed of 5.5km p hour. That whips up my heartrate. Than I drink 200ml to make up for fluids I lost. Do you think that works as good as HIIT?
I am a breastfeeding mom (exclusively) who gained a lot of weight from my first pregnancy with my first baby and now after recent delivering my second baby two months ago,, also this delivery was traumatic as well as I developed preeclampsia so it was a emergency C-Section,, I really want to lose the weight but I cannot! I can’t do any diets because I’m exclusively breastfeeding my baby🤲🏻 I worry the milk supply will drop,, so I’m stuck, some women lose weight while breastfeeding,, I’m the kind who gains weight while breastfeeding because of the increase of hunger😢. Before having kids I used to looooove fasting it made me so light and happy and felt great, but now I would love to fast but I can’t do that while breastfeeding 🤱 ,,, is there any chance I can fast? Any advice?😢
Learned so much from How to Burn body Fat Extremely Fast! thank you! And.... I don't have fat thighs. Never really have. Very strong for 70. But, belly/visceral fat is where it started collecting on me at least 55 years ago. Yup! So... white fat eh? Okay... I'll start working with that. Cold hmmm... 58* okay. Dont't have a shower, only bath, while finishing house. I guess it will be learning the cold plunge.
Will doing all the things to build thigh muscles help to take from white midriff and belly fat?
What a great video! So many helpful tips!! Just what I needed. Thank you.
