    After I read Obesity Code, I eliminated sugar, added a sugar free protein shake per day with fruit, lots of veg and protein, enjoyed fats like butter, nuts, olives, avacado, oh and no pasta or rice, potatoes on special occasions 😊. I’ve lost 55lbs in 6 months. I don’t count calories at all I just ask myself “what’s the best choice right now”. Oh and I try not to eat at night. For me it’s a sustainable way to eat forever, not a short term diet. Thank you Dr Fung!

    Dr. Fung, I am glad that at the top of your list you put the elimination of sugars and refined carbs first, before you worked your way down to fasting. While many can jump into fasting, for others it is difficult. I always find that when you remove sugars and carbs first, and allow your body to acclimate to this way of eating, it makes fasting much easier.

    • @alexjulius69
      @alexjulius69 3 роки тому +20

      Yes, you'll stay at relatively low fat percentages just by eating real food. Doesn't mean you can get to 12% body fat easily or something, but getting to 20% body fat with nature's foods is easy. Definitely the way to go before attempting fasting. There's no point in fasting if you're just gonna keep stuffing your body with bullshit foods all the time.

    I have done steps 1-4 since I was 20 years old. Shop mostly at health food stores. Eat whole foods. Cook myself. Eat lots of veggies and I eat a variety of meats and fish and healthy fat. I am now 64. Over the past 10 years, I gained about 5 pounds a year. Most of it was on my belly. I got to a point (last year) when I realized that I was now OBESE! This did not feel good and it was alarming. I made a decision to lose the weight - not so much because of how I looked - but because I knew that it was affecting all my internal organs, my joints, etc. I had already tried to lose weight (instead of gaining it) for years and nothing worked. I didn't get it because I am NOT someone who eats the garbage that most people do. I drink mostly water and I monitor how much - about 64 - 80 oz. per day. I also drink a warm cup of lemon water in the morning. ANYWAY.... let's just say I have always done a TON of things to keep my body healthy - and YET - I gained the weight. I was about 40 pounds overweight. At that point, I stumbled upon INTERMITTENT FASTING! What a Blessing! It resonated with me so I started to incorporate I.F. into my life. That was about 10 months ago. Slowly the weight has been coming off. I have lost 34 pounds. Slowly is good - as it is the healthiest and most effective way to keep the weight off. I also added walking 3 miles, 5-6 times per week - briskly - so I work up a sweat! I was diagnosed last year with fatty liver disease and was SHOCKED! I don't drink, I don't eat or even purchase sugary foods - junk foods - EVER, etc. Yet I had the beginning of fatty liver disease. Since I started the I.F., that has gone away. Completely. I also know that I.F. can help diabetes. I don't have that issue and never have - but I was probably close to it. AGAIN, I.F. is the BEST way to "lose weight" -- but it's not just about losing weight - it is about helping your body and all the body parts to function well and not have to work harder and sometimes they cannot help you to function anymore if you do not treat them well. THANK GOD FOR I.F. I used to eat breakfast and always felt like I had been drugged. Especially if I ate the "healthy steel cut oats" - no sugar of any kind added - sometimes nuts or blueberries. When I stopped eating breakfast and fast EVERY SINGLE DAY now for 19 hours and have a eating window of 5 hours - THIS has given me my life back!!! I have so much more energy than I did before. I am so happy with I.F. I recommend it to EVERYONE!

      It's due to a lack of electrolytes. Most people don't take in enough but when you fast your body needs much more. For a calorie free cheaper alternative to sports drinks mix in salt, "no salt" potassium, and baking soda into water daily. Your body will let you know if you need to increase or decrease the amount. If you are having a little diarrhea you've had too much salt. If you're cramping not enough. Check out snake diet on UA-cam. Cole is loud and in your face but truelly is all about helping people get the weight off and heal themselves. 👍

I have done Weightwatchers successfully many years ago but it is so much cooking and buying ingredients that cant be found and endless exercise. I know all those diets are too high maintenance and wont last. This is a simple, logical approach. I have only started a couple 9f days ago and lost 5 pounds already. I am inspired. Whats even more incredulous about making the scales move is that I cant exercise much due to severe hip osteoarthritis.

      people may have over indulged on carbs at one time and the bad ones at that . carbs are not bad and neither is heathy fats . but you can over indulge on bad carbs and bad fats and both will lead to weight gain and bad health . if you have to lose 40 lbs than fat is your best fuel source because you have a lot of it to use . so added complex carbs or any carbs wouldn't be ideal . but that is not to say complex carbs are bad and don`t have its place in a heath diet . the right carbs at the right time can be very beneficial to a lot of people . athletic people . people who work in a fast pace work environment(construction or someone who is on their feet all day ) take LeBron James . he lost a lot of weight on a hyper keto /paleo diet . but he said when the season started he had to switch back because he lacked the energy for a full 4 qt game . so much so that he had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches before and at halftime in the locker room for snacks . now if you are 40lbs over weight and sit on the couch or go for walks as exercises than pb&j sandwiches won`t be good for you . but for others its a great fuel sources at the right time .6am breakfast oatmeal and one egg and 4 egg whites mixed with spinach and tomatoes . 9-10am snack plain Greek yogurt with walnuts lunch 12-1pm 4-6 oz of grilled meat with brown rice and steamed veggies.330-4pm workout (weights )430-5pm complex protein shake after you workout 7 -730 dinner baked fish a large mixed green salad(olive oil and djon mustard and lemon dressing and a stemmed veggie . there you complex carbs and protein healthy fats from meat and olive avocado oils . you can live healthy and have carbs .

    Dr. Fung, thank you for your work and insights into fasting. I am morbidly obese but over the past year have worked my way into and alternate day fasting lifestyle and while the weight loss is slow it is helping and I feel so much better physically and mentally! Reading your books and watching your videos had been a huge influence on my decision to start fasting. It makes so much more sense physiologically than any of the diet plans i have attempted. I have been obese from young childhood so I know it will take time to heal my body from the insulin resistance it has developed over the years. I am hoping to prevent diabetes and lower my A1C out of the pre-diabetic range as soon as possible.

    Dr. Fung, I'm so glad to see that you are doing regular videos. I watched your videos in 2017 and lost 35 lbs. and was able to keep them off with IF. I needed a sort of "refresher" so I looked you up and was so glad to see you are doing shorter vids. These are very helpful tools, even for someone who has watched your older, longer videos. Thank you, I will catch up and tune in every week. You are truly a life saver!
