Keto has indeed changed my life. I am down about 112 lbs and my husband is down 85. We are off all prescription medications and are feeling fantastic. Dr. Sarah Hallberg's TED Talk is what set me on the path to researching a low-carb lifestyle. You, Dr Berry, Dr. Berg and so many others keep me going. I am currently stalled and getting frustrated because it is not coming off like it did in the beginning, but I will not stop. Thank you for giving me my life back.
Thanks for this lecture. I tend to follow Dr Cywes although I honestly don’t believe I’m a carb addict. I ate ADA die except lived the clean your plate club so always was overeating and gaining weight. I still have items in cupboards for hypoglycemia episodes and have only consumed twice in 4 months. I’m down 40# in 3.5 months and stalled last two weeks. I consider it a body break for internal healing. Yes my shoes are too lose. I’m back into clothes I haven’t worn in about 5 years. I eat total carbs so that eliminates all keto manufactured products. This lifestyle is easy to follow and enjoyable. I just need to add more physical activity to help burn more fat from my stores. As a retired ICU RN I want to thank you for your service!!
I was just thinking about an alcoholic . That is how I was on carbs. The minute I ate carbs I literally ate continuously until I went to bed. Never satisfied !!! Thought about food constantly. A horrible existence. Not a life. Now I have a life thanks to Keto. Slowly losing weight to boot! All labs normal but it’s how I feel mentally that sold me. No more anxiety, depression or obsessive thinking about food. Thank you for all you do👏🏻👏🏻💕
Nurse Cindy, I’m a fellow RN for 33 years! You are awesome, such an inspiration to me. You were recommended by a fellow RN and I’m so glad I’ve found you ! Just started Keto & will continue my journey! Thank you for your knowledge! You’re the Best! ❤️
Thank you! I have to tell myself over and over,” just don’t give up, keep cutting those carbs and hang in there”. PS I am a Davis, over 70 and an RN also. My whole family have gone keto or low carb and all have lost weight and my son is off insulin too.
Nurse Cindy, you are soooo intriguing. You are quite funny and so very professional in your delivery! Keep it up. I will be sending people your way to get on the program with ease! Love, love, love both you and Dr. Westman!
Thank you for putting a positive spin on a nerve wracking situation. It changed how I view this little stall, and I am keeping on...keeping on. No sugar passes these lips. Veggie carbs or almond carbs...occasionally.
I never thought of it as a victory, just learned how to maintain weight within 2 pounds for about 2 years! I just turned 70, so I've been on a roller coaster of diets since 1961, when I was 10 years old!! Loved this video, Cindy!!
Fantastic talk. I put the scale away a while ago. I accept myself as is now. I also have had such an unhealthy relationship with food so I heard a lot of myself in this lecture. Tracking my food and calories also makes me crazy. Intermittent fasting with keto is magic. The longer fasts get my weight off and keto/intermittent fasting keeps it off. I also follow my circadian rhythm and do not eat past 3-4:30pm. That has made a huge difference in both my ketone and glucose level. My body rebels when I don’t give it at least 16-21 hours of rest from any consumption of anything during that period (including tea or coffee). I have been checking blood ketones and sugar regularly to find these patterns in myself. Keep up this side job, you are so good at it!
Great Job Lara!! Way to listen to your body!! Dr Annette Bosworth (Dr Boz) has some great videos on fasting and getting our Dr Boz Ratio ( I call it the DBR) down under 80 for fat loss and under 40 for autophaghy (Blood glucose/ketones=DBR)
Ask Nurse Cindy yes I check my numbers often as well as do my Br Boz and GKI score for comparison. It doesn’t always correlate though. I feel my very best when my ketones are the highest. Fasting 16-20 hours daily keeps my ketones high. I would like to see my blood sugar go down a bit though.
You are so funny Cindy. Good job on the talk. I was overweight 14 months ago. I started Intermittent Fasting & lost 20 lb, then plateaued. And then I increased my fasting to 36 hr, and I broke the plateau. Then I started Keto diet, & lost another 10 lb, & reached plateau again, & then I did another long fasting of 48 hrs. Then I lost another 10 lb. I lost a total of 40 lb in 8 months & keeping it off for another 3 months. Started at 25 plus BMI to 21 BMI. Staying on Keto diet eat 1 meal a day, & continue to another 5 lb. Last week I did a 72 hr fasting & lost another 5 lb, BMI down to 20. So, plateauing is only temporary...and you are right, plateauing is a good sign. That means your diet is working. But your metabolic rate needs to be reset by prolong fasting. Good luck to you all.
Cindy!! You look so fantastic! I was watching you very steadily about 50 lbs ago. Wow! This just popped up and I just loved it. Your families story is so touching & inspiring. You are so funny and wonderful, amazing woman. Thankyou for all the help you have been to me.
I am a retired RN and loved this video and passed it on to several people. At 74, it is slow but lost 50 and put 10 on. I refuse to go back to old way. Have been drinking vodka lately due to stress and wonder if that could stall my weight loss and how long would it take to regain weight loss? One of funniest videos yet! Love your enthusiasm !
Need this. I have stalled for over six months but will always eat this way. I have a great a1c, low triglycerides high hdl also high ldl. One of these days I will start losing again. Down 45 pounds and about that much left to lose still. 60 years old two new hips last year 18 months keto also 40 plus years nursing.
Bridget, if you haven't watched vids by Casey Morango, you should. "Go Keto with Casey" is the name of her series. She lost almost 100 lbs, but it took three years with long plateaus. Hang in there, don't get discouraged, and watch some Casey. 💕👍
Wow! This was so helpful and gave me the motivation to keep going. Lost 50lbs, stalled for 7 months but NO weight gain which is a victory! Going to get this last 30lbs off!
Congratulations, Wendy! I'm right alongside you. Fifty down, thirty to go, and my body is resetting itself. We're slowly but surely on the way to victory. ✌
You need the extra column on the nutrition panel that gives values per standard weight (here it's 100g) that makes it easier to compare products without getting misled by portion size
Thank you! I love the sense of humor and there are so many things in this speech that I needed to hear today. I have already lost 120 lbs - but have more to go and have been at the same weight for a month now. I needed that reminder about the body burning consumed fat first and stored fat second.
You are amazing nurse Cindy, Just wanted to say old truck may still out do that new one car...fix up inside (like our insides) and we can keep up with the best LOL....Yay keto ! I so needed to hear you today...you have such a gift to make us understand Keto.
Great to hear from you ! I'm need to keep my eyes open for upcoming events! I live in southern Utah and would have loved to attended that 😕 Thanks Bob the welder
Eat all the fat you want as long as it's in your food. I started putting cream in my coffee and my weight loss stopped dead. While I was drinking black coffee I was losing a pound of weight a week. Eating bacon and eggs, Salmon, steaks, you name it. Just don't drink it in between meals. You need the break.
I 100 percent believe in cooking everything from scratch. I even make my own dressings and ketchup. If you don't the sugar they add in those things adds up. Anything processed even 'sugar free' has maltitol or something just as bad as sugar.
Wynn Gwynn I make my own catsup with small can organic tomato 🍅 paste, 1/2 can apple cider vinegar, 1 tsp Himalayan salt and dropper full of liquid stevia. Mix well. Have been making it 2 yrs now and can’t stand regular catsup. Can adjust salt and sweetness to own taste.
This is my case also, weight loss stall after 32 kg weight loss... I do try reduce protein intake and increase fat intake and 0 carb .. but my weight just between 74 to 75 kg .. look like , my body weight set to 75kg ...
Everybody says that with keto and fasting looses a lot of weight specialy at the first weeks ... This is not the case with me .. i started keto and fasting 2 weeks ago i do Hiit and weight training 5 times a week no weight los 😔
I didn't lose weight for the first 4 weeks. After that, I started losing weight. Maybe my body needed to get the human-invented fats (corn, vegetable, canola, and other oils) out of my body tissues. This is a wild guess unsupported by any scientific research. I eat animal fats, animal proteins, low-carbohydrate vegetables, spices, herbs, and salt. I drink coffee, tea, and water with stevia and full-fat cream in my coffee. Read the book "The Salt Fix" by Dr. James DiNicolantonio. Eating too little salt can make a person insulin resistant, which will be corrected after the person starts eating enough salt. If your doctor has told you to eat less salt, talk to your doctor about what "The Salt Fix" says.
@@Amywilde You are probably gaining muscle and losing fat. Lots of ppl dont lose on Keto for weeks then Wooosh..it falls off 3lbs at a time. Keep on trucking

Possibly the best preso of the conference - definitely the most entertaining.
Hahahahaha..>So glad folks got my humor. I personally tend to remember things if they have a little zip of humor to them so I use it when I teach.
Total grams carbs is RX strength and net carbs is over-the-counter! I love that, LOL!
Stole it from my hero, Dr Eric Westman
@@AskNurseCindy Great presentation!

She is a great speaker and gave me some great “food for thought”!
First time I'd seen Nurse Cindy - she's awesome!
Excellent presentation! Needed to hear this, thank you!
Fantastic presentation,thanks Cindy!
Education in a humorous way. Very good! Fellow RN here.
Thanks Helen! Happy Nurses Week BTW!!!!!
Weight Watcher should have a sign that says, this office is fueled by failure.
Awesome presentation. Thank you nurse Cindy. And yes... you are funny 😁

Waist to height ratio is a great benchmark along with BMI. Often correlate.
Thanks Cindy! Loved your presentation. Who knew you were so funny!
Cindy, I love you!! Thank you for this
Great to hear from you ! I'm need to keep my eyes open for upcoming events! I live in southern Utah and would have loved to attended that 😕
Thanks Bob the welder
My husband is a retired welder Bob. They are having one next April, think around the 7th, but the Keto Chow website will have details.
i thought i was imagining the feet thing but my shoes are now loose on my feet! glad i wasn't mad :D
What a character! Love her talk.
Amazing presentation.thank you.
Just brilliant. Thank you!!
I also noticed that my hats no longer fit. It now looks like I'm a kid in his brothers baseball cap! Weirdest place to lose some weight...
Some of my tight shoes fit me better!
not a fat head
Grow more hair. Folic acid is a great way to grow good hair and nails. Then your hat will fit you again.
Great talk.

This is my case also, weight loss stall after 32 kg weight loss...
I do try reduce protein intake and increase fat intake and 0 carb ..
but my weight just between 74 to 75 kg .. look like , my body weight set to 75kg ...
your frame and lean mass play a big factor in your weight. 75kg is a pretty respectable number for a male or a taller, sturdy built female.
Bliss point is in everything.. how to make you buy more..
This is excellent and true in my life.
Awesome! Thank you! ❤️❤️
Thanks so very much.
Who the hell gives this a thumbs down? smh
Some nutter will, but not me.
Awesome!!!
Cindy you are so lovely 😊
