Dr. Gillaspy, I'm definitely that person that is fearful of eating healthy fats I've always thought that eat fat, get fat. However I noticed over the past year when I implement salmon or Avocado my weight loss skyrocketed in a positive direction so apparently of you eat healthy fat in moderation you do lose weight. But now I am in a plateau, and I am at a complete loss for how to get out of it. I use to be able to do a fasted workout and it would kick me right out of my plateau but not anymore, my body refuses to let me get past 190. I've tried increasing protein and lowering carbs and the only thing I got was a severe case of the hangry! Lol and my energy wasn't too great. .... what to do?! (Oh and BTW I found I am allergic to dairy, and pork.) Looking forward to your response!
Salmon, avocado, hard boiled eggs, raw almonds, organic psyllium husk , mct coconut oil stirred into coffee
What about Sardines?
FFS! I bet I loose weight if I stab myself for every f-ing time someone tell me to eat f-ing fish!!! I hate fish, I am not going to eat fish and I want everyone to stop tell me to eat a f-ing fish!
@@nothing2seehere34 You know what's REALLY good for you?..............Fish.
Fasting is good for you, but what I find interesting my late father who was born in 1922 use to show me old photographs of large groups of people that was taken from about 1880 to about 1945, guess what, no overweight people, he said they ate all kinds of home made pies, ice cream, pastries of all kind. He said the reason they wasn't over weight was they did hard manual labor all day long. Of course no fast food and no soda helped. And no modern flight or fight stress, which cut down on cortisol. Pastries was all homemade even the ice cream was hand cranked. They also drank lots of water. He said as a small boy diabetes was almost unheard of. A lot of weight gain is caused by processed foods, fast food and soda and stress I believe ! Lastly all bread was home made, no store bought. God only knows what modern food is doing to us ! !
And people are more sedentary nowadays. Your father was right!
And what was the average life span in the 1800s? Forty?
In Europe there are many skinny people, they walk not drive to work or shopping
I was born in the late 1950's and if one looks at my elementary school photos of the 1960's there were virtually no fat children. In a class you might have 1 or 2 chubby kids out of a class of 30, today it is nearly 50%. Dessert was not a nightly thing, my mom made cake and cookies, but these happened on the weekend, so we we would have sweets 1 or 2 days a week. Also, when kids drank coca cola they were in the small 6oz bottles and had cane sugar, no high fructose cane sugar. At my elementary school, we had a cafeteria where hot lunches were served and everyone regardless of income was served. Parents that could afford paid monthly and ones that couldn't were paid for by the schools.
There were no vending machines allowed at school with crap in them either. Besides lunch that was provided to students who could not afford the lunch dues, there was break with milk and a graham crackers too. No one went hungry back then.
@@mtngrl5859 good times, Jean😻 surely, technologies and other advances are great, but “there's something wrong” nowadays. Or, more likely, there's something wrong with me re current times?🤷🏼♀️
Wow. I had a diabetes scare a few months ago, did tons of research, and developed a diet for myself. I had scrambled eggs for breakfast, a huge salad for lunch/dinner, almonds as a snack. My dinner salad consisted of different combinations of leafy greens, salmon, sardines, avocados, chia seeds, roasted garlic, onions, chicken, blue berries, turmeric, dressed with olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper. I also drank a lot of water, with psyllium husk in one glass a day. My blood sugar went down dramatically, and I lost 22 lbs in 10 weeks.
The only thing mentioned here that I didn’t implement was the MCT oil - I was skeptical of that but will implement in the future. On the one hand I feel if I had found this video it would have saved me a lot of research, but I’m also glad to have my self developed process confirmed - my own doctor gave me no advice at all other than suggesting I take Metformin, which I refused.
Very proud to hear that good job hero❤️ but you only lost 22 pounds in 10 weeks on that kind of diet? I would have assumed more what was your exercise like?
@@ambeachphotography1437 The only exercise I did during this period is walking the dog for 2-3 hours a day, about an hour in the morning and two hours in the evening. But since this has been a constant for the past five years I don’t know that this affected my weight loss.
Fantastic, said no to drugs too
Good for you! Stay away from Metformin. That drug, along with Lisinopril, damaged my husband's kidneys.
My doctor just wanted to throw drugs my way she also told me not to worry about losing weight as I wouldn't want to be too skinny! I was 25 pounds over recommended weight for my height and age! When I asked her about my A1C being 5.5 she said not to worry that I was still within the guidelines! I am done with doctors! Can't find any good ones anymore who will give a thorough exam like the old time doctors did in exam room. She always wants to send me off for expensive tests that show "nothing" is wrong.
Kudos to you for taking care of yourself and validating that you are on the right track.
I love this woman; her calming voice would typically be so soothing, and some might lose interest. However, there's a difference with Dr. Becky, at least from my perspective, and that is she wastes no words. Every word used, every inflection has a purpose, listening is easy, there is no resistance, and as a result, what she says is easily inculcated. Great work, Dr. Becky. I have personally experienced what you say about sugar. One must eliminate them, and in a few days, cravings go away. One more point, even as I have been relatively fit most of my life until I started intermittent fasting and low carbs, I thought of little else but sweets. How liberating it is to be freed of that addiction.
Yeah & she doesn’t have annoying music in the background competing with her voice.
Yes! I find her relaxing but I'm always hungry after she talks so sweetly about all these foods... ❤️
Thank you so much for your comment. I totally agree with you. ☺️🙂
Thanks a TON 🇬🇧
Salad toppers!
Egg decreases belly fat
Salmon great in omega 3. Decreases belly fat
Avocado
Low carb snack: raw almonds
Organic Psyllium husk reduces belly fat due to soluble fibre: put with blueberries etc
MCT Oil medium chain (eg coconut oil)
sardines
Thanks for getting to the point quickly and without hyperbole! Very sensible.
I am a retired biochemistry professor, and discovered your channel recently. You are extremely encouraging and scientific. I am in India and attempting to go on a keto diet and must say you are excellent
I tell my friends & family that this is one of the best health channels on UA-cam.
Hi Becky. I'm from Ireland. I've struggled with my weight for years. I tried so many different things and had success for a while but then the weight went back on. I'm trying a low carb diet only from today. Thank you for these tips. I'm so grateful
How did you get on
Good luck sis! They work if you stick to them! You can do it
When my "watch later" videos were playing I felt a little surge of happiness as this video opened. Besides enjoying your channel's content and your presentation, there was another factor, knowing your personal accomplishment shown in another video, your "before" photo along side your current condition. You evoke a smile that says, "I know something nice about you."
I'm glad several people like my remarks and I'd like to add that since New Years day I've been on a low card diet, a not-too-strenuous one at that and now, in late May, my doctor's scale says I've lost 22 pounds and my energy is improving. Thank you, Dr. Gillaspy.
Hi Becky, thank you for your encouragement. I am definitely a sugar addict. I’m 5 foot five and weighed 162 pounds. 8 years ago, I cut out sugar completely, no gum, no mints, nothing. I did intermediate fasting with two meals a day and after nine months had lost 40 pounds I’ve done pretty well for the past eight years but in the past year and a half I’ve gained about 5 pounds, so I’m back on cutting off sugar I know this is a major problem with weight and people not being able to lose it, I have firsthand experience.😊
What a blessing you are to all your viewers! Thank you for all your work and efforts!💕👍🏼🥰
Dr. Becky, all the information you have provided in your video is accurate, reliable, and useful for inevitable weight loss.
Just bought walnuts, pecans, avocados, chocolate with 90% cacao, virgin olive oil, eggs strawberries, and more of the things you have been recommending. We were already consuming all but the high cacao chocolate and virgin olive oil anyway.
Psyllium husk is available in capsule form. Kroger sells it under their own brand. One serving is 5 capsules. One bottle has 100 capsules.
I make guacamole. Just smash up an avocado and add some salt, fresh squeezed lime juice and cumin for seasoning, use it as a salad dressing. It's delicious!
I love the way you explain.... simple and to the point!
...and based on facts and actual studies rather than hearsay and other nonsense pulled out of the air.
This channel is my new go to for keto motivation. I am over 2 years on keto and have 30 pounds to lose to meet my goals. Thank you so much for your no nonsense approach Becky.🧚♀️❤️
Yeah you!
2 years is passed,, so how did u do?
I love that you get straight to the point and clearly explain each point without a lot of empty talk
Everything you said was so helpful. I will be making your channel a regular visit.
Well said. That’s exactly what I love about these videos as well.
Trouble is what she said is dead wrong
@@MaryLovesLex Don't keep us in suspense! Give us the benefit of your superior wisdom.
Spot on Dr. Gillaspy! I've been doing all of these except the psyllium husk which I've never heard of. In 6 weeks doing clean Keto I've gone from 209 to 178 pounds! Thanks for all that you do. All the best
Please impress on the viewer the danger in eating too much psyllium and how much water one must drink with even 1 tsp. of psyllium for the gut to handle it adequately. Some people will take gobs of psyllium thinking it will help reduce their appetite etc., but this can lead to serious blockages with very serious consequences. Thank you for your great work and elegant presentations.
Excellent information, thank you Dr. Becky!
One thing I can say, go organic wherever possible, eat pastured eggs and wild caught salmon.
Your videos are a public service and provide concise and clear information. Thank you!
What a sensible woman
Thanks Doctor Becky Gillespie For All Your Educational Videos.
I like all these you are discussing, I will incorporate more of these. Thank you Dr. B. Really appreciate your time
I always eat 3 eggs a day and fish 5 x a week as well as half avocado. The other meals are varied with my dairy limited to heavy cream in my few coffees a day plus real cheeses and beef,pork, poultry and shellfish..Dark salad greens ,tomatoes berries and woody veg like cabbage brocc cauli and asparagus just to name a few.
Hot peppers, nuts, olive and coconut oil, lots of water. One or two tequilas in evening and lots of spices such as cinnamon,tumeric,garlic, herbs and garlic etc.
Oh forgot my ounce of dark low sugar choc before bed with green tea. No health or fat problems here sand I'm 70.
Hello Dr. Backy! I am so glad I found your channel. Your explanation was so easy to understand. Thank you 😊!!!!
OMG. I just stumbled upon your awesome videos on UA-cam. I am 70 and need to lose about 20 pounds. Your advice is just what I needed!! You are amazing. Thank you!!!!!!!
Welcome to my channel, Ross!
I need to lose 10 lbs
Hi Dr. Becky always appreciate your ideas.
Hello,
Thank you for the amazing advices you give through your videos.
What I like the most is your way of speaking so calm and confident that makes watching the videos more enjoyable.
Good luck.
Asmaa from Morocco.
I just found your channel, I really like your content, I’m always moving fast your calm voice helped me to slow down enough to listen to what you had to say. Thank You, I was so sick of everyone trying to sell something, this is the first time I ever felt someone finally cares about people’s health, during this pandemic I didn’t eat a lot, I realize I became lazy as heck, I started my weight loss journey today Thanks to you.❤️
Im so happy to have found this powerful video. I pressed the bell to be notified, but for Dr Becky’s info, no Subscribe button shows up on my iPad for your channel. Thank you so much.
I have aced this one! I consume all that you discussed in this video and it does work!
I went grocery shopping today and got healthy stuff today because I'm working on losing weight. One of the things I got was some hard boiled eggs that I can eat, along with some veggies as a snack. Then I saw this video and felt great about getting the eggs. They are inexpensive and a quick snack, I'm hoping they will help me lose the weight
Why buy hard boiled eggs? Cheaper to boil them yourself.
@@annettejohnson7790. Less gross to boil your own 😂. There’s probably a reason why they don’t want to mess with boiling eggs. But Anytime I see boiled eggs in a market I get kind of grossed out. 😂
This was very helpful and well done, Dr. Gillaspy. Thank you.
All the info is great and so many supportive comments. I'm going to turn to this community when I'm about to give up. I'm a stress eater, and love fast food, (I know, i know) otherwise I can manage on my own. Thanks for all the great info.
Thanks for your help Dr. Becky Gillaspy.
Thank you for getting to the point and caring about the people❤
I was in all the wrong sites But I am glad I found yours. very to the point well researched! thank you
Thank you so much. Thinking of and praying for you.
Happy Mother’s Day!🩷🩷🩷
Dr. Becky, glad I found you! Hello from Greece!
Sugarholic and wheat belly here. Hope to lose it with your diet suggestions. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for your calming voice and useful info.
I subscribed to your channel recently because my blood sugars are way too high. I have deployed some of your strategies and almost effortlessly brought them down by 30%. I have way more energy as well which i didn't expect. However I sleep like crap now because I haven't adjusted to the new energy levels. The actual reason I'm commenting is not because of what I previously mentioned but more so how you present the information. I just love your demeanor and verbal cadence. I find it highly relaxing . Your content s delivered smoothly , rhythmically and with a touch of humour and you have a great smile . All round winner in my books. Thank you for helping me with my health as I'm sure you have for thousands of people . Good day to you.
When I make my salads, I put eggs, avocado, beets, kidney beans, shredded coconut, chia seeds, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, and mild banana pepper rings. I was putting sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds on my salad, but after being alerted (and saw for myself), that they are made (roasted) with SOYBEAN OIL, I promptly got rid of them. Even the olive oil mayonnaise has soybean oil in it. I’m now going to make my own mayonnaise. Thanks for your helpful and informative video Dr. Becky.
I love your videos as you get right to the point!! Thank you for this information!!
I really appreciate how you add "how" to use those supplements!
Your channel is brilliant the content is clear ,calm and very informative always a lot of helpful information without hype and you tube empty talk
I have become a subscriber Thank you
Thank you, Tobias!
That would be an excellent name for an outlaw biker club....the Muffin Eaters. DOH!
Great advice, thank you. I was needing that 🌻 dealing with a gout flair and I know what you are saying is good information ℹ️ thank you for your help ❤️
Got the psyllium husk power on line as I was watching your video. Going to go with the foundation r items you suggested. Enjoyed your video!
Your amazing...thank you for enlightening us with your knowledge !!!
great info and practical suggestion! im not afraid of VCO anymore
I’m in love with your knowledge and voice. Thank you
Thank you for the wonderful free service you provide us in educating us on good health
Inspiring advice, helps me keep going 👍🏻thanks 🥰
Excellent Video, thank you! What are your thoughts on chia seeds For fiber, healthy fats and protein?
Love how you explain everything so calmly. Thank you. New subscriber
Thanks 👍 so much for your time and information 💗
Almonds might be a bit iffy for me. Two of the trainers at my gym told me to avoid Almonds and Walnuts because they decrease Testosterone production, hurting any weight loss goals, and increase Estrogen production. I thought they might be "misinformed" (let's be polite) but I did some research and there are studies that agree. Instead, they recommended Macadamia and Brazil nuts.
Thanks
I'm not sure about the science behind this and I'm certainly not an expert but I remember when I started Atkins like 20 years ago they warned against nuts during induction (the initial really strict phase of the diet that's supposed to kickstart ketosis) but you were allowed to slowly introduce them after. I remember olives being on there too. I'm not sure if it was for any reason other than trying to stay under 20g carbs/day? So your comment made me think there was another reason
Our almondcentrism is also terrible for the environment but vegans and keto ppl alike love them (hello almond milk and almond flour)
Thank you for your informative videos .. we follow you and enjoy understanding and learning each time..
Calm voice is the truth
Try this --- gently melt one cup virgin coconut oil , well rounded table spoon turmeric powder, heaping tea spoon ginger, teaspoon black pepper, teaspoon cayenne pepper, big pinch ground cloves , drizzle over whole pecan halves let cool then dust with ceylon cinnamon
I appreciate your carefully thought-out content. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this good advice
I agree easy to listen to a good calm voice
Your information delivery is wonderful.
Thank You
Thank you, Joseph!
Thank you for adding that bit about fiber filling you up. It really adds to your credibility in my book.
As a child I grew a small avocado tree from a seed on the window sill for a year or two, but I could never stand the taste of the fruit....
Thank you so much Dr, I really really love ❤️ how you take us through the different things. You have such a common sense approach to what your imparting to us all. And I’ve subscribed and given you a thumbs up 👍 too. Please stay safe and well too.
COVID and caring for sick husband is adding to my stress and gain weight I’m female and 64 never been as heavy feeling lost 😪😪
Hi MB. Are you long into learning about Keto and IF, an H.I.I.T?
@@dwlsn93 I have put on 20 pounds this year and have had way too much wine. Covid is here to stay for a while and time to get my life back.
So sorry, life is hard, as you have success with Keto you will find your mood will lift xxx sending love
There are many meditation videos and yoga videos you could try to help reduce your stress. As a caregiver myself I know how quickly we can forget about ourselves. Balance the mind first and everything else will follow. - I wish you well ❤️
@@dwlsn93 Hi Dee I have been on KETO for 3 months and my A1C dropped to 6. I was 6.7 before in addition I have lost 25lb.
My no1 source for nutrition help thank you

Thank you Dr. Gillasby, your videos are always so informative and at the same time pleasant to watch.
Does ginger root help with belly fat?
Thanks Dr Gillaspy. Good video.
I like this presenter. Very calming pleasant voice, exellent, well researched informatiin. This channel is on my Go-To List! Thank you. Mo
So excited to get started with this to lose weight.
So glad i decided to watch your channel its fantastic! Thanks to Davina McCall for recommending!
This is great and very useful! I love the way you show studies as well. I like these better than the videos with hubby where you got slim fast and he seemed to have bad numbers even though he looked like he was in good shape. We guys felt discouraged by numbers. LOL
Great kitchen! Happy holidays to you and yours.
Very informative 😊 I’m glad I found you
Welcome!
I am so glad here about foods that help belly fat
I love your channel. Learned a lot. Thanks 🙏
Great information. I can attest to the benefits of all these except for MCT oils. Will try those next. Thank you
Thank's Doc, The bells in my brain are still going off, enjoyed this video very much. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with dummies like me, and a few steps away from the needle .
I would love to hear how psyllium compares to hemp seed, chia seed, or flax seed...as far as health benefit.
in case you want to look up something again
how to reduce belly fat
0:15 eggs
1:40 salmon (fish oil)
2:55 avocados
5:00 almonds
5:55 psyllium husk
7:28 mct oil / coconut oil
I am loving your fact base videos!
I started a diet yesterday due to an awful heartburn/acid reflux 😥
I need to loose belly fat, so I will follow your advice. In fact, I just went to the kitchen to defrost salmon for tomorrow. By the way, according to your information on eggs, I should be skinny 😀 I eat eggs 🥚 every single day. I’ll let you know how it goes. Thank you!
Try Betaine hydrochloride tablets for the reflux. Try 2 with each meal and add more if needed. Most people have very little stomach acid after 40. This leads to malabsorption, bloating and acid reflux and heartburn. The results are instantaneous. Worked for me right away.
Another well researched and beautifully presented video Becky ... well done! Your research confers exactly with that of Dr Travis Stock ... whose book "The Lose Your Belly Diet" was a game changer for me. Keep up the good work ... I look forward to your videos.
I am 58 years old and I learned something new!
Hey! You’re never too old to learn something new…. And besides, 58 isn’t old at all!
@@Jack-ur4in You just made my day!
Your voice is sooo soothing! It's almost ASMR by accident!
Thanks Dr Becky for sharing your knowledge. Your videos are very useful and your way of explaining things in detail is great.
Thanks a million Doctor for your help it is appreciated but I always thought the yellow of the egg was not good for diabetes but I am only learning about it so thanks a million again for everything 😀 😊
Can psyllium husk capsules be substituted for powder? I can't stand the taste of the powder.
I have at least half avocado a day. My belly is flatter than back then when I was in college.
