You said something my mom told me once. I was debating on going to nursing school. I said "But it's going to take so long! I'll be 34 when I'm finally done!" My mom said "How old are you going to be in 4 years if you DON'T go to nursing school?" That really resonated with me. It's true in your case as well. Time is going to pass whether you are changing your lifestyle or whether you don't. Where do you want to be when that time period has passed? Healthy, or still hating yourself? Congratulations, you look beautiful and healthy.
Almost made me cry. I'm trying but it's so hard. I already have lost 20+ pounds down to 220.9 this morning. People don't understand how hard it is to struggle. But I am keeping going.
The funny thing IS it is so easy to allow just a bit of carbs back and then it just spirals out of control until you get a grip again. Carbs ARE ADDICTIVE AS DRUGS FOR SOME PEOPLE... Realizing this is important. You ladies are helping many thousands of people to live longer and happier lives. Keep up the good work of developing, finding and sharing recipes and a bit of your lives, many out here appreciate it. Variety helps in the battle to keep it Keto. Thanks!
This is one of the most motivational videos I’ve ever seen. I’m starting keto for like the 4th time, and I’m determined to make it a lifestyle now. I’ve tried other diets but this one works best for me. Thanks for sharing.
I sit here crying while and after watching this. This is me. I try and try and always fail. I hate that I want to always eat carbs. I am now having health problems do to my high blood sugar. I just can’t stick to it even though I am having problems. I’ve lost weight in the past but always gained it back. Today has been day 1 again. I just want to do it. My husband passed away 2 1/2 years ago and preparing meals for myself is so difficult. I usually buy take out food. This truly is so encouraging. I’m saving this and will watch it again and again. Thank you so much for sharing your story and your encouragement. Love your videos and watch you all the time.
Girl I needed this it was like you were telling my story. I started at 330+ I'm 80lbs down but I'm not falling back this time thanks for the reminder someday it will get easier💕💕. You definitely look great!!
Love this!!! I was in the same boat and finally in June of this year 2021, I started over and am down from 200 pounds to 164!!! I was successful 3 years ago but gained almost all of it back. I felt so defeated, embarrassed and ashamed that I let myself go back up. I hated how I looked but mostly how bad I felt physically. Thank God I refocused and started again. I was determined. Your channel is amazing and you girls are so motivational ❤. It's good to see that we are all not alone and it's possible to succeed 😊
I just love you girls!! Just discovered you last night. So you restarted your Keto Journey on my 60th birthday, January 19th. :) I had lost about 10 pounds doing Keto to get ready for my 60th birthday and did it. GOD BLESS YOU And your husbands!! Thank you for all you are sharing!
I went from saying " I can't give up bread and potatoes permanently but I will try it for a week and see", to five years and five weeks as a Ketovore. Not a single slice of bread has passed my lips in that time. The knowledge of how the Keto lifestyle works and why has been key to my weight loss. Now I need encouragement and motivation to finally get to my goal weight
I lost 30 pounds on keto 4 years ago. The best part was the reaction of people who hadn't seen me for a while. It was, "Wow! You've lost weight! What did you do?"
I have been on & off so many times in the last 2 years. I am finally starting again this week- after gaining my weight back. I found this video to be very motivational. I bought some LMNT & stuff to meal prep for the week. I dumped or gave away every high carb food, bread& pasta in the house. Love your recipes. Thank you for sharing them.
Thank you for this. I'm starting back on keto too. The first time, I lost 30 pounds, but college, work, and being a single mom got to me and now I'm 20 pounds heavier than I was from the start. I'm the heaviest I've ever been at 250 and I needed this motivation. Something that came to me last night was that I need to stop choosing food over my LIFE. Thank you for being honest and sharing this.
So motivational. I'm 72 and have struggled all my life with my weight. I've done keto, carnivore but I always go back. I've been watching your channel and I fell different this time. Thank you for sharing your journey you look amazing and the best part is that it seems you feel amazing too.
I found the 2 of you a few months back when I was researching keto for my own start to my keto journey. Your story is so much like mine. I have yoyo dieted the last 20 years and only continue to gain. I started keto in January with a goal to lose 120lbs. Today I am down 47lbs and feel amazing. Keep up your inspiring videos! I relate in so many ways and really enjoy seeing both of your journeys, inspiration and encouragement.
Congratulations! It’s a lifestyle, not a diet. You mentioned the most important ingredient health. That’s what I love about keto - I’m healthier mentally, emotionally and physically. Yes, it can be hard at times to have to say no, but hey that builds character. Only been on keto for about 2 months never going to stop!
Today it’s September 16. Four months since I started keto and I’m still going! I’ve lost 28 pounds! I still feel great and the Lord has helped me through some stressful times, keto has helped. I didn’t cheat. I have found that nutritional yeast flakes with coconut oil (because it’s quite dry) helps a great deal. With all the vitamin B in it.
Debatable. You could clearly see the had the potential to be beautiful, but objectively, no she wasn't. It was when she lost the weight she allowed her natural beauty to shine through.
@@solomonerhardtshe was beautiful to her husband. You cannot force your view on others. Suzanne Schmid says she looked beautiful. That is her opinion. She did not ask what you think and even if you have an opposite opinion, it will not change hers.
Congratulations!!! I’m happy for you! Former carb addict here… but I was skinny (& weak) and slowly dying of malnutrition due to undiagnosed & misdiagnosed celiac disease. So I had other problems like my hair falling out. I started a journey of trying to eat healthy after discovering what was actually wrong, but found the gluten free substitutes to be full of carbs and devoid of fiber. I failed the first time I tired keto, but the second time it has stuck… and I have also lost the sweet cravings. I love the steady energy all day & the clarity of thought that I get on keto. No more carb crashes or brain fog!
Aawwww Em...this video was so beautifully done! Your story is so relatable & genuine. I love you & your sisters videos, & try to watch them all, but now I feel really connected! I'm just one of your many keto sisters, and I'd like to raise a glass to you both of you gorgeous woman & say Congratulations on your successful & healthy life journey!🥂💜💜
I started about mid February on low carb and went keto about a week later. I’ve lost 20 lbs and seem stuck but I can’t stop now. I’ve been over weight most of my life. Even when I was young I was over weight. I’ve recently found your channel and have enjoyed your videos. I love your sense of humor and straightforwardness. I know this is my new way of eating and not just a diet. I’ve been on countless diets and either didn’t stick to it or they were unrealistic to follow. Thank you for your content that you post.
Your video was uplifting, real and warm. I too am 262 pounds. I am more confident that I can do this weight loss journey after seeing your video. THANK YOU.
Keto the cure. Its amazing and youre journey was. I love waking up in the morning not feeling like I'm going to throw up and now don't act weird about food and get nade if soneone gets fast food without me. I'm not a slave needing to snack or eat meals ever four hours and get hangry. .
That’s so true Laura! I remember getting hangry all the time and being mad about food and people not getting me food, it’s amazing how different my life is now! Keto is the cure, you are right! -Em
In september of 2019, a doctor told me I was at risk from fatty liver disease. I asked if there was anything I could do, and he replied, "You could stop eating sugar, but you won't." On october first of that year, I discarded a great deal of Carbohydrate-laden products and began keto. Within ninety days, my liver counts were normal, and within a year, my liver was healthy. A happy side benefit was that I lost about thirty pounds. Although weight was not my primary concern, it was a welcome change to lose weight I thought inevitable for my age. I changed the bad habits of a lifetime and will never go back. I have used and enjoyed many recipes, from the Keto twins site. Your story, and your sisters, are truly inspiring. Just a note, I'm in my early seventies and if I can do it anybody can.
There’s so much that I can relate with your story especially the pain and self worth. I’ve also tried many times with keto and was not successful in maintaining it long term. I recently tried ADF but had to stop due to the side effects and have been going back and forth if I want to do keto again but don’t want to be disappointed. Thanks for sharing! I’m so glad keto is working for you and that you have made it a life style. ❤️
Thank you so much for your comment Michelle! 30 lbs in 2 months is such an amazing accomplishment! Congratulations! Thank you for watching us, we know there’s a lot of options out there for keto content on UA-cam, we appreciate it so much! -Em
Thank you for this testimony on your weight loss journey. I do understand the sadness and despair that comes from being over weight. And the shame from all the broken promises I made to myself. I am at it again and have lost 17 pounds. I love you two and all the ideas and encouragement that you provide! Thank you for all you do🙏
Loved this video!! Its amazing how how we eat affects our whole life...I just found your channel back in June or so, when I started keto, but love your channel. I'm down 25ish pounds, but having a hard time getting any more to come off. It's hard, but the changes I'm seeing in just the past 3 months FAR outweigh anything carbs ever did for me, in the past 30+ years lol....thank you for this video. You girls rock!! 💜💪
Sara DeBuque thank you so much Sara! I remember there were many weeks where I lost nothing, but at some point your body will start losing again, trust me! It’s important to remember how you felt before compared to now which is what you are doing! You will get to your goal! 25 lbs is way more than the average person loses before giving up, never give up! -Em
I am so happy you have posted this video. Your inspiration and courage for letting it all out in the open is such a motivational tool for those of us who have tried and failed at becoming who we were meant to be. Thank you and your sister for doing all the hard work and testing to make the Keto diet something we can all manage.
Watched a couple of your videos and they have inspired me to try Keto again!! You have a wonderful way of motivating people!! Thank you! I really needed this!
I am a carb addict too. I’m 67 and am keto low carbing less than 25 a day , since Jan 2022 I’ve dropped 15 lbs and a lot of inches. ,today 2/20/3022. I realize I feel better,I’m never hungry,I don’t crave and I’m so glad I don’t need diet pills to do this. I watch your videos,and love your recipes. You guys are awesome. I try to keep it simple and clean. Keep up great work.
Thank you so much for this. Its truly an inspiration. I dont feel alone I thought it was just me that felt this way . I am restarting my keto journey and its because of you, so thank you very much . 💖
Wow, what an inspiration you are to others! You SHOULD be very proud . I wish I could show this to my mom who died of complications from type 2 diabetes in 2007 at the young age of 72. Congratulations!
Oh my gosh Emily what a great video and transformation on the inside and the out. You did such an amazing job on this video. I've watched you both for a while and love your story and honesty. This was beautiful made me tear up. So proud of you both! Thanks again for sharing! Much Love!
nitrowife you are always so sweet and encouraging, thank you for your lovely comments, they really keep us going! This video was an emotional one for me to make for sure! -Emily
@@ketotwins You guys have been so inspirational for me and kept me going. I love how involved you are with commenting and replying. I appreciate you both and am so glad I found you lovely ladies ♡
nitrowife we are so glad you found us too! We are so small in comparison to the other channels and we really appreciate you watching and supporting us! ❤️❤️-Emily
I used to be 262 as a male. With the keto lifestyle, 2.5 years, and my new American Dream, (a bicycle), I have lost 89 pounds, and grew 2 tree trunks.. And now that the excess skin and flesh is finally dissipating, I see a 6 pack... Yahooo.. 12 thousand miles and 31 flats later on my bike, I feel like a million bucks. Still doing 20 carbs or less... Sometimes negative carbs on days I ride +40 miles per ride.
New to keto and I connected with everything you said in your video. Thank you both for your videos and education! True inspiration!! Also thanks for the chaffle recipe!! 🙌🏻❤️
You truly do look beautiful both before and after the weight-loss. I'm glad you are healthier, feeling better about yourself, and enjoying your life. Much love and respect.
350 pounder here. Thanks for your videos making keto fun. Its been a struggle getting started. But I now eat about 1/4 or less of what I ate before. I still crave sugar a bit but thank god for all these keto friendly sweetners. Lost about 20 ish pounds so far.
Thank you Emily for what you shared. It gives me hope. I lost 70 lbs about 3 years ago on Keto. Gained it back within 2 years and a bit more. Once I began to see Keto as a lifestyle it made all the difference. I've played all your videos and appreciate your input. Thank you Sara, also.
Keto Twins Thanks! I’m pretty short (5’1”) so I’m not quite there yet and still considered overweight according to BMI charts, but I’m getting it and feel SO much better 😊
We are all proud of you! I understand diets never work, a new life style of eating works. I probably lost my entire self if I added up the weight I lost with different diets. This was back several years, I am now 72 and never been overweight since in my mid 20's!
You brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for sharing your personal journey. And i feel more motivated listening to you. I have found what works for me with my carb addiction as with my addiction to tobacco I feel that the craving hits and last about 2 minutes. So I'll try to relax say a prayer asking for strength to get thru the next 2 minutes take a few deep breaths and sure enough the craving has passed. Now sometimes its back again in an hour or sometimes weeks later. But i just tell myself its only going to last 2 minutes.
God bless you and your sister ♡ My husband and I are doing keto right now. We were prediabetic on the road to type 2 diabetes. We are both 15 pounds down as of right now, feeling great and no longer being controlled by our stomachs desires.
Ok. I just subbed. This is inspiration beyond your wonderful recipes. You're so blessed to have a partner in this journey. That's so important. I'm still working on that part. I'm married with a family and that's the hardest part for me. Trying to swim against the tide. And running on "E" from trying to be supermom and doing too many things. I totally relate to not hitting that wedding day weight goal. But I 💗💗💗 this! And Kudos and congratulations! 🥰
Erin! Yes, I am very lucky to have a built in support system in my sister. I totally understand how tough it is to have a family that eats different, but maybe as time progresses they will join you eating less carbs overall! ❤️ my husband eats keto when I make food and sometimes he eats carbs. Now I can watch him eat carbs and not really feel jealous. That’s in improvement for sure! -Em
I love your channel so much. I gained 30 pounds practically overnight when I lost my mom to covid, my cat and both of my dogs within 6 months. I'm post meno and have dieted (mostly WW) most of my life. I'm eating way better (keto) but still not losing any inches or dress size. (I don't weigh myself.) I'm so frustrated but find hope in your journeys. Thank you for sharing honestly. I appreciate you both.
Your videos are so inspiring, I've been binge watching them since I found your channel. I started at the same weight so this really hit home and I have also done atkins, keto, lchf over and over, over the years and it never sticks but I keep trying hoping one day it will stick as it did for the two of you. I started back March 20 and I'm down almost 17 lbs and feel great. Its channels like yours that I turn to when I feel like I cant go on and watching them helps keep me on track. Thank you so much for all you've done!!❤❤❤
You are amazing Emily! I am loving all of your videos and I am so happy for you. More than your weight loss... your authenticity is INSPIRING. Speaking your truth gives space for others to speak their truth! Thank you 🙏 ❤️
I set here and cried it was like I was watching my story. I started my Keto journey 2 months ago and found you beautiful real ladies from a plateau thank you for your help and this beautiful story
Wow. This is inspiring. I've been doing keto for only a couple of months. I combine this with 16-20 hours of intermittent fasting and found this helps with weight loss and how my body feels. You're giving out a strong and very encouraging message, which is to not give up. Well done on what you've achieved. Should be very pround. I'm also just a few kg from not being obese anymore
Lucy Okaz thank you! This video was definitely emotional to make, especially when I put the wedding footage in there. Such happy memories with you and everyone at my wedding in Mexico, and sad feelings too about how I looked. -Em
@@ketotwins u looked beautiful then, and u look beautiful now! I am insanely happy that u feel better and worked so hard to accomplish ur dream. You have a beautiful heart, Emily! So happy for u! Rooting for u and Sarah!
Truth..I'm crying. This story is me...I've not tKen a picture in 5 years. I started keto Monday and already fell off the wagon. Just found this channel. So grateful
I am sitting here with tears because your story is my story. The only difference is I’m 49 now and am… still obese. I started OMAD diet 1 month ago today and went from 216 to 212 knowing full well that if I was doing Keto too, my results would have been way better. But hearing you say that you are a Carboholic. That’s what really hit me. I am too and I need to start saying no 1000 times. Instead of making excuses. I need to stop giving in and giving up! I am so happy for you and I thank you for sharing your story with the world. Keep going! And I will too!! Side note- As for the people that gave this video a 👎🏻 YOU are what is wrong with this world.
This is so great! I have wanted to start keto but there’s always something that stops me, I love junk food but also eat healthy my weight fluctuates between 250-260 I just want to be 150 again😭 I struggled with addiction but when I found out I was pregnant I stuck to it I have been sober 3 yrs & 5months but now I’m starting to get depressed I just want to be active and be able to do all those things with my son😭 I need help😰
Hi Lynda! I definitely know what it’s like to love junk food and to not want to give it up. I’ve lost HUNDREDS of pounds over the years just to gain it back when I quit keto. Never stop trying because there will be a time that you are finally successful. I’ve been on keto for almost 2 years now, but i would still be 262 lbs if I never tried again. Keep trying ❤️-Em
Praying for you hun. You are in a battle with your habits and live temptation. It's so easy to give but the rewards of being hleathy outwights any fading pleasure u get from food. Think of this any time you have food cravings, fasing life with obesity makes everything harder, even having nice walk with your son would be difficult. Stay strong my sister you have a warrior inside of you let her rise. You've overcome 1 addiction, u can over come this too
I don't know if this will help you but Keto Chow was my start to doing keto. I hate to cook and work a lot of hours so time is short. I do one to three shakes a day and when I want something savory, I fix something simple and quick. Since they taste good, I've not had cravings or felt the loss of sweets. I have lymphedema so a great deal of the weight I carry is fluid (over 100 lbs). And this diet has reduced the inflammation allowing the lymphatic system to begin to heal and the fluid to come off. I'm only six weeks in and scared to allow myself to hope too much. It's been so hard to find what I needed to get it under control. Best wishes
Its a life long effort... Great job! Don't forget if you have trouble keeping the amazing results you have attained that fasting is an option. You are a very strong person. Addiction is difficult. I have lost and regained about 40 pounds each year, because I can't seem to stay on the horse. I get back on each time, but you overcame the addiction. That is amazing.
Very inspiring. I too struggle with no loss for weeks. Sometimes I gain, sometimes I lose. On the plus side, I have been insulin free for a year now & my Dr. is very supportive of my Keto lifestyle. I used to take 2 kinds of insulin 3x/day & had to test 4x/day at high doses. My glucose levels were off the charts. It has taken a long time to learn what is right for me to eat. Any weight I lose now is just a bonus for me. I feel better in my clothes & bought some smaller ones for future goals. I have more energy than ever. With the nice weather, I plan on getting more active outside. Last weekend camping, I spent time running around playing with cousins who are 9,7 & 2 so their Mom could tend to her new born baby who was less than a week old. Her Mom would then take the baby while we were playing so she & her husband could rest up. I can’t wait to see the kids again & am already planning new games to play. I lost 5 pounds in 3 days! I had also pre-made my keto meals & snacks to take with me. I was proud of myself for thinking ahead. The adults were sitting around the campfire discussing how bad their diabetes was, how much insulin costs etc. All while chowing down on huge burgers, hotdogs, chips, s’mores etc. I have to admit that I did eat a couple of meals in my trailer because it was so hard to watch them gorge away & complain about their health. They all know I am on Keto. My Sister in Law has started asking me about Keto meal planning and for help getting started. She’s tops the scales at over 400 pounds. I told her I would be happy to help. She’s a beautiful lady with an amazing heart. She & my brother have been together for 33 years & just had their 27th Wedding Anniversary. I told her how much I loved her & that I was afraid of her dying young from being so unhealthy. She is a twin too, her twin is her brother. He’s tall, lean & fit. Now if I could just get her to my place where all the ingredients are... One step at a time. We all start somewhere. Thanks for bringing us these amazing recipes & testimonies. It really gives me hope that one day, I too will reach my goal weight and the rest of my family will see that Keto is not a diet but a lifestyle change. 💞
@@ketotwins honestly, I think if you just continue on keto your body will go to its natural weight and everything will just be balanced. If that makes sense. Well, ya know some say too thin some say not, but i believe if we follow a healthy keto diet our bodies will naturally go to the healthiest weight for us individually. You guys look great.
Love both you and your sister!❤ I am technically keto, too, and love being satisfied with what I am eating while staying thin! Love what you girls have done with your channel. Keep it up!
Kudo's to you! I too am embarrassed about my weight. I spent my whole life in special operations (lean and ready to fight) and then I retired and my weight took a spiral up to 280 lbs. Keto has helped me as well as exercising 15 minutes each day. Blood sugar is down, blood pressure is down, weight is coming down. Good luck to you!
Y'all, I am down 6.2 lbs in 6 days !! Im doing lowfat (very low, like 30 gm daily) Keto, because it needs to eat my body fat. Trying to be able to wear my batjing suit on vacation in 2.5 months !😂
Actually, to the comment Liz Ashing made, when ur using the fat off ur own body in lieu of ingesting it, um, YES, its still KETO. Im using my own fat stores to fuel my body, not eating it.
Let me start off by saying thank you for sharing your weight loss Journey with all of us! Congratulations to you and your sister for not only changing your bodies by losing the weight and getting healthy both physically but also mentally as well. Adjusting the way you think and feel is more than half the battle in my opinion. I always love to hear your thoughts about your personal weight loss Journey to Better Health. Thank you so much for sharing this very personal and sensitive part of your lives, I appreciate it more than you know! Your journey and advice has helped me a great deal to know that it's not just me that is going through this emotional experience trying to get myself healthy and not be classified as obese! Thank you again for putting yourselves out there for us to benefit! Keep the recipes and good advice coming, love you guys!
I’m on day 8 of this keto journey and already getting rid of a lot of water and got through keto flu feelings too. I’ve not lost weight yet, but my face and eyes are far less swollen. These keto videos are everything to me and I ate radishes today because of another video you produced. I loved this video it made me cry and not because I was sad. Thank you.
I’m so glad I watched this. I did Keto years ago, before it was a real thing. I lost a bunch of weight. However, I stopped eating that way and the pounds and then some came back. I started again a few weeks ago and I’m loosing weight at a snails pace. But I’m determined to keep going. It’s channels like yours that give my husband and I motivation because of your stories and recipes. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much Michelle! Sarah and I have lost and gained probably 500 pounds over the years, the struggle is real. That’s why we are treating it like a lifestyle now. Can’t go back this time! -Em
Wow thank you. You are an inspiration to me. I just started my journey 2monhs ago . 10 lbs down I am at 220 no one knows this even my husband. Thank goodness he loves me dearly as I am . I get it we have been married for 45 years I have continually been gaining weight. I want so bad to be under 200 which has been years. Yes I too am a carb addict. My hubby s doing it with me. The weight is coming off slow but you inspire me hank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️But always remember honey our body is a shell not the person deep inside ❤️
This is such good advice. I went keto some years back, lost loads of weight fast then ate too much fat and it all went wrong. Last year, stressed, carb addicted and pre diabetic I jumped in again, and I’m losing slowly, about 25lb down and hoping to lose maybe another 12 or so. I don’t track, count, I just eat healthy whole foods, concentrate on protein, I’m never hungry and rarely get a craving any more almost 6 months in. Just eat good food and see how you feel and how your clothes fit. My health has improved immensely despite being old and having ME…I will never go back to eating sugar and carbs. You both look fabulous, and well done 😊❤️

thank you hunny :)
Awwwww!
💗💗💗
❤❤❤
Can so relate! Fabulous support from my husband too 😘
You said something my mom told me once. I was debating on going to nursing school. I said "But it's going to take so long! I'll be 34 when I'm finally done!" My mom said "How old are you going to be in 4 years if you DON'T go to nursing school?" That really resonated with me. It's true in your case as well. Time is going to pass whether you are changing your lifestyle or whether you don't. Where do you want to be when that time period has passed? Healthy, or still hating yourself? Congratulations, you look beautiful and healthy.
I finished nursing school (ASN) at 42. Now at 45 I'm finishing the BSN while working as a nurse in a hospital. Is never too late!
Was 46 when I finished nursing school in 2004. Never give up on your dreams.
@@cathleenloveysmom4382 True! Kudos to you!
Wow good advice from mom!! 😊 I needed to hear this too.
Almost made me cry. I'm trying but it's so hard. I already have lost 20+ pounds down to 220.9 this morning. People don't understand how hard it is to struggle. But I am keeping going.
The funny thing IS it is so easy to allow just a bit of carbs back and then it just spirals out of control until you get a grip again. Carbs ARE ADDICTIVE AS DRUGS FOR SOME PEOPLE... Realizing this is important. You ladies are helping many thousands of people to live longer and happier lives. Keep up the good work of developing, finding and sharing recipes and a bit of your lives, many out here appreciate it. Variety helps in the battle to keep it Keto. Thanks!
That’s very true.
This is one of the most motivational videos I’ve ever seen. I’m starting keto for like the 4th time, and I’m determined to make it a lifestyle now. I’ve tried other diets but this one works best for me. Thanks for sharing.
You can do it, take it one meal at a time 🤗🤗
@Keishapie1973 how did it go?
What made you fail/give up every time you started please? What were you eating and avoiding during the diet?
I sit here crying while and after watching this. This is me. I try and try and always fail. I hate that I want to always eat carbs. I am now having health problems do to my high blood sugar. I just can’t stick to it even though I am having problems. I’ve lost weight in the past but always gained it back. Today has been day 1 again. I just want to do it. My husband passed away 2 1/2 years ago and preparing meals for myself is so difficult. I usually buy take out food. This truly is so encouraging. I’m saving this and will watch it again and again. Thank you so much for sharing your story and your encouragement. Love your videos and watch you all the time.
Girl I needed this it was like you were telling my story. I started at 330+ I'm 80lbs down but I'm not falling back this time thanks for the reminder someday it will get easier💕💕. You definitely look great!!
❤️❤️🤗🤗
You are doing wonderful!
Love this!!! I was in the same boat and finally in June of this year 2021, I started over and am down from 200 pounds to 164!!! I was successful 3 years ago but gained almost all of it back. I felt so defeated, embarrassed and ashamed that I let myself go back up. I hated how I looked but mostly how bad I felt physically. Thank God I refocused and started again. I was determined. Your channel is amazing and you girls are so motivational ❤. It's good to see that we are all not alone and it's possible to succeed 😊
Congratulations Colleen! 🎉🥳👏
I just love you girls!! Just discovered you last night. So you restarted your Keto Journey on my 60th birthday, January 19th. :) I had lost about 10 pounds doing Keto to get ready for my 60th birthday and did it. GOD BLESS YOU And your husbands!! Thank you for all you are sharing!
Aww welcome Laura and thank you so much!! -Em
@@ketotwins You are so welcome! I've been binge watching you since I found you! LOL
🙈🥰😍-Em
Laura,I hope you’ve continued on keto. Good health to you.
@@donnaml8776 Oh yes!!! I'm continuing and pressing on for sure! :)
I went from saying " I can't give up bread and potatoes permanently but I will try it for a week and see", to five years and five weeks as a Ketovore. Not a single slice of bread has passed my lips in that time. The knowledge of how the Keto lifestyle works and why has been key to my weight loss. Now I need encouragement and motivation to finally get to my goal weight
I lost 30 pounds on keto 4 years ago. The best part was the reaction of people who hadn't seen me for a while. It was, "Wow! You've lost weight! What did you do?"
I have been on & off so many times in the last 2 years. I am finally starting again this week- after gaining my weight back. I found this video to be very motivational.
I bought some LMNT & stuff to meal prep for the week.
I dumped or gave away every high carb food, bread& pasta in the house. Love your recipes.
Thank you for sharing them.
Hi! So many others can relate, just take it one meal at time :)
Thank you for this. I'm starting back on keto too. The first time, I lost 30 pounds, but college, work, and being a single mom got to me and now I'm 20 pounds heavier than I was from the start. I'm the heaviest I've ever been at 250 and I needed this motivation. Something that came to me last night was that I need to stop choosing food over my LIFE. Thank you for being honest and sharing this.
So motivational. I'm 72 and have struggled all my life with my weight. I've done keto, carnivore but I always go back. I've been watching your channel and I fell different this time. Thank you for sharing your journey you look amazing and the best part is that it seems you feel amazing too.
Congratulations! You’ve done an amazing job and your story is very encouraging! I have to say though, you still looked beautiful on your wedding day!!
You both a such an inspiration!!! Love you both!
That means so much coming from you Annie! Thank you so much!!! Love you more! -Em
You girls inspire me thank you
I found the 2 of you a few months back when I was researching keto for my own start to my keto journey. Your story is so much like mine. I have yoyo dieted the last 20 years and only continue to gain. I started keto in January with a goal to lose 120lbs. Today I am down 47lbs and feel amazing. Keep up your inspiring videos! I relate in so many ways and really enjoy seeing both of your journeys, inspiration and encouragement.
Wow 47 lbs so so great!! Congratulations! Thank you so much for you kind words and watching! It keeps us going making videos :) -Emily
Congratulations! It’s a lifestyle, not a diet. You mentioned the most important ingredient health. That’s what I love about keto - I’m healthier mentally, emotionally and physically. Yes, it can be hard at times to have to say no, but hey that builds character. Only been on keto for about 2 months never going to stop!
Today it’s September 16. Four months since I started keto and I’m still going! I’ve lost 28 pounds! I still feel great and the Lord has helped me through some stressful times, keto has helped. I didn’t cheat. I have found that nutritional yeast flakes with coconut oil (because it’s quite dry) helps a great deal. With all the vitamin B in it.
You were beautiful when you were heavier and are beautiful now. And, you were a beautiful bride. ❤️
Debatable. You could clearly see the had the potential to be beautiful, but objectively, no she wasn't. It was when she lost the weight she allowed her natural beauty to shine through.
@@solomonerhardtshe was beautiful to her husband. You cannot force your view on others. Suzanne Schmid says she looked beautiful. That is her opinion. She did not ask what you think and even if you have an opposite opinion, it will not change hers.
Congratulations!!! I’m happy for you! Former carb addict here… but I was skinny (& weak) and slowly dying of malnutrition due to undiagnosed & misdiagnosed celiac disease. So I had other problems like my hair falling out. I started a journey of trying to eat healthy after discovering what was actually wrong, but found the gluten free substitutes to be full of carbs and devoid of fiber. I failed the first time I tired keto, but the second time it has stuck… and I have also lost the sweet cravings. I love the steady energy all day & the clarity of thought that I get on keto. No more carb crashes or brain fog!
Aawwww Em...this video was so beautifully done! Your story is so relatable & genuine. I love you & your sisters videos, & try to watch them all, but now I feel really connected! I'm just one of your many keto sisters, and I'd like to raise a glass to you both of you gorgeous woman & say Congratulations on your successful & healthy life journey!🥂💜💜
Aww thank you!! That’s too kind ❤️❤️❤️-Em
Everyday I tell my self baby steps! Just keep going!
I started about mid February on low carb and went keto about a week later. I’ve lost 20 lbs and seem stuck but I can’t stop now. I’ve been over weight most of my life. Even when I was young I was over weight. I’ve recently found your channel and have enjoyed your videos. I love your sense of humor and straightforwardness. I know this is my new way of eating and not just a diet. I’ve been on countless diets and either didn’t stick to it or they were unrealistic to follow. Thank you for your content that you post.
Your video was uplifting, real and warm. I too am 262 pounds. I am more confident that I can do this weight loss journey after seeing your video. THANK YOU.
Keto twins cute !!
Yay I lost 95pounds on Keto too
Looking forward to following you into 2021
Happy New Year !!!!
That’s amazing Karen!! Yay! What a huge accomplishment! -Em
Its like someone is telling my story, taking pictures is the worst for me😢, thanks for this,im going to start again tomorrow
Keto the cure. Its amazing and youre journey was. I love waking up in the morning not feeling like I'm going to throw up and now don't act weird about food and get nade if soneone gets fast food without me. I'm not a slave needing to snack or eat meals ever four hours and get hangry. .
That’s so true Laura! I remember getting hangry all the time and being mad about food and people not getting me food, it’s amazing how different my life is now! Keto is the cure, you are right! -Em
Yes!
In september of 2019, a doctor told me I was at risk from fatty liver disease. I asked if there was anything I could do, and he replied, "You could stop eating sugar, but you won't." On october first of that year, I discarded a great deal of Carbohydrate-laden products and began keto. Within ninety days, my liver counts were normal, and within a year, my liver was healthy. A happy side benefit was that I lost about thirty pounds. Although weight was not my primary concern, it was a welcome change to lose weight I thought inevitable for my age. I changed the bad habits of a lifetime and will never go back. I have used and enjoyed many recipes, from the Keto twins site. Your story, and your sisters, are truly inspiring. Just a note, I'm in my early seventies and if I can do it anybody can.
There’s so much that I can relate with your story especially the pain and self worth. I’ve also tried many times with keto and was not successful in maintaining it long term. I recently tried ADF but had to stop due to the side effects and have been going back and forth if I want to do keto again but don’t want to be disappointed. Thanks for sharing! I’m so glad keto is working for you and that you have made it a life style. ❤️
Thank you Hua! Maybe try low carb instead? It works for tons of people! -Em
I am on Keto and don't recognize myself in the mirror! I love this way of eating! Down 70 lbs.
Wow! I loved this video! It’s very inspiring! I started my keto journey 2 months ago and have lost 30 pounds! I love watching Keto Twins!
Thank you so much for your comment Michelle! 30 lbs in 2 months is such an amazing accomplishment! Congratulations! Thank you for watching us, we know there’s a lot of options out there for keto content on UA-cam, we appreciate it so much! -Em
Thank you for this testimony on your weight loss journey. I do understand the sadness and despair that comes from being over weight. And the shame from all the broken promises I made to myself. I am at it again and have lost 17 pounds. I love you two and all the ideas and encouragement that you provide! Thank you for all you do🙏
It all feels familiar. I was and still am overweight. I have lost over 60 pounds on keto. We are all in this together. ❤
This video absolutely resonates in my soul. I can’t stop crying. Thank you for sharing. I can do this!
Aww thank you Rochelle! I know you can do this! If I can you can too! ❤️❤️-Emily
Loved this video!! Its amazing how how we eat affects our whole life...I just found your channel back in June or so, when I started keto, but love your channel. I'm down 25ish pounds, but having a hard time getting any more to come off. It's hard, but the changes I'm seeing in just the past 3 months FAR outweigh anything carbs ever did for me, in the past 30+ years lol....thank you for this video. You girls rock!! 💜💪
Sara DeBuque thank you so much Sara! I remember there were many weeks where I lost nothing, but at some point your body will start losing again, trust me! It’s important to remember how you felt before compared to now which is what you are doing! You will get to your goal! 25 lbs is way more than the average person loses before giving up, never give up! -Em
I am so happy you have posted this video. Your inspiration and courage for letting it all out in the open is such a motivational tool for those of us who have tried and failed at becoming who we were meant to be. Thank you and your sister for doing all the hard work and testing to make the Keto diet something we can all manage.
Watched a couple of your videos and they have inspired me to try Keto again!! You have a wonderful way of motivating people!! Thank you! I really needed this!
I am a carb addict too. I’m 67 and am keto low carbing less than 25 a day , since Jan 2022 I’ve dropped 15 lbs and a lot of inches. ,today 2/20/3022. I realize I feel better,I’m never hungry,I don’t crave and I’m so glad I don’t need diet pills to do this. I watch your videos,and love your recipes. You guys are awesome. I try to keep it simple and clean. Keep up great work.
Wow so impressed, you are both amazing & love your channel
❤️❤️
I was sold when you said " I no longer feel hot when I'm outside even when its 90 degrees" Happy for your transformation.
Thank you so much for this. Its truly an inspiration. I dont feel alone I thought it was just me that felt this way . I am restarting my keto journey and its because of you, so thank you very much . 💖
Oh, thank you so much Martha! You can do it! It’s worth it! -Em
Such a great video. One of the best things you said was it doesn't matter how many times you've tried and failed, try again. That's so true.
Love this! It’s like a documentary style video...so impressive! Great job on the weight loss.
Awww thank you! You have no idea how much your comment means to us!!!- Emily
Wow, what an inspiration you are to others! You SHOULD be very proud . I wish I could show this to my mom who died of complications from type 2 diabetes in 2007 at the young age of 72. Congratulations!
Oh my gosh Emily what a great video and transformation on the inside and the out. You did such an amazing job on this video. I've watched you both for a while and love your story and honesty. This was beautiful made me tear up. So proud of you both! Thanks again for sharing! Much Love!
nitrowife you are always so sweet and encouraging, thank you for your lovely comments, they really keep us going! This video was an emotional one for me to make for sure! -Emily
@@ketotwins You guys have been so inspirational for me and kept me going. I love how involved you are with commenting and replying. I appreciate you both and am so glad I found you lovely ladies ♡
nitrowife we are so glad you found us too! We are so small in comparison to the other channels and we really appreciate you watching and supporting us! ❤️❤️-Emily

So happy for you and your sister. I think that you two should renew your wedding vows in a double ceremony. Wedding dress and all.
So very proud of you. Proud of you both! Sending hugs, prayers and kindness with love and a smile!!!! ❤️❤️
Thank you Kaye, you are so lovely! ❤️❤️-Emily
I never saw this before. Touched my heart
I used to be 262 as a male. With the keto lifestyle, 2.5 years, and my new American Dream, (a bicycle), I have lost 89 pounds, and grew 2 tree trunks.. And now that the excess skin and flesh is finally dissipating, I see a 6 pack... Yahooo.. 12 thousand miles and 31 flats later on my bike, I feel like a million bucks. Still doing 20 carbs or less... Sometimes negative carbs on days I ride +40 miles per ride.
You are my inspiration. Every time I get tempted to cheat I look at your videos. You never know the affect you have on someone.
Thank you so much Linda. Your comment brings me so much joy, thank you for your support! -Emily
New to keto and I connected with everything you said in your video. Thank you both for your videos and education! True inspiration!! Also thanks for the chaffle recipe!! 🙌🏻❤️
Welcome to Keto and our channel!! -Em
You truly do look beautiful both before and after the weight-loss. I'm glad you are healthier, feeling better about yourself, and enjoying your life. Much love and respect.
Amazing story. Very inspiring. Congratulations!!♥️🎉💪
Kelli Hammond thank you so much Kelli! ❤️❤️-Em
350 pounder here. Thanks for your videos making keto fun. Its been a struggle getting started. But I now eat about 1/4 or less of what I ate before. I still crave sugar a bit but thank god for all these keto friendly sweetners. Lost about 20 ish pounds so far.
Wow congratulations!!!
You just inspired me so much. I love your channel, you girls rock! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Lori!! -Em
You were beautiful all along but I can relate to the things you said. Huge inspiration! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏼
Thank you!
Incredible story incredible journey, proud of you girls!! ❤️love u
Sharifah McDonald thanks mom!!! Love you too! -Em
Thank you Emily for what you shared. It gives me hope. I lost 70 lbs about 3 years ago on Keto. Gained it back within 2 years and a bit more. Once I began to see Keto as a lifestyle it made all the difference. I've played all your videos and appreciate your input. Thank you Sara, also.
Freaking rockstar status 👏👌 you both look absolutely amazing 🥳 I started March 2019 @240 and am down to 153 💪
Avocado& Megs wow that’s amazing!! The 150s is my ultimate goal, I haven’t been that weight since I was maybe 9 years old 😂😂-Emily
Keto Twins Thanks! I’m pretty short (5’1”) so I’m not quite there yet and still considered overweight according to BMI charts, but I’m getting it and feel SO much better 😊
We are all proud of you! I understand diets never work, a new life style of eating works. I probably lost my entire self if I added up the weight I lost with different diets. This was back several years, I am now 72 and never been overweight since in my mid 20's!
Wow just awesome. The video is very inspiring.
Keep inspiring. Watching from Morocco sending you all my support
Thank you so much!
You brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for sharing your personal journey. And i feel more motivated listening to you. I have found what works for me with my carb addiction as with my addiction to tobacco I feel that the craving hits and last about 2 minutes. So I'll try to relax say a prayer asking for strength to get thru the next 2 minutes take a few deep breaths and sure enough the craving has passed. Now sometimes its back again in an hour or sometimes weeks later. But i just tell myself its only going to last 2 minutes.
U have done so amazing! So happy for u girl! Love how this is put together!💞
Thanks mary! We worked for weeks on this one! Appreciate your support :) -Em
@@ketotwins Oh gosh, it totally shows! Amazingly put together!
You are telling my story. You are saying all the words that have been on my heart. Keto has never failed me. I've just failed it over and over.
We’ve failed countless times on keto over the past 2 decades…you just need to try again, don’t expect perfection ❤️-Em
I'm just dreaming and praying for this everyday
Awesome! Congratulations!! 👏🏻👏🏻 It took me 5 months to lose 23 lbs but I'm still at it. Not giving up because I feel great. I have 10-15 more to go.
You inspire people!I loved this❤️
Thanks Sandri! Your comments inspire us to keep creating videos 😍-Emily
God bless you and your sister ♡
My husband and I are doing keto right now. We were prediabetic on the road to type 2 diabetes. We are both 15 pounds down as of right now, feeling great and no longer being controlled by our stomachs desires.
Ok. I just subbed. This is inspiration beyond your wonderful recipes. You're so blessed to have a partner in this journey. That's so important. I'm still working on that part. I'm married with a family and that's the hardest part for me. Trying to swim against the tide. And running on "E" from trying to be supermom and doing too many things. I totally relate to not hitting that wedding day weight goal. But I 💗💗💗 this! And Kudos and congratulations! 🥰
Erin! Yes, I am very lucky to have a built in support system in my sister. I totally understand how tough it is to have a family that eats different, but maybe as time progresses they will join you eating less carbs overall! ❤️ my husband eats keto when I make food and sometimes he eats carbs. Now I can watch him eat carbs and not really feel jealous. That’s in improvement for sure! -Em
I love your channel so much. I gained 30 pounds practically overnight when I lost my mom to covid, my cat and both of my dogs within 6 months. I'm post meno and have dieted (mostly WW) most of my life. I'm eating way better (keto) but still not losing any inches or dress size. (I don't weigh myself.) I'm so frustrated but find hope in your journeys. Thank you for sharing honestly. I appreciate you both.
OMG! This is movie making!!! I love it!!!!
Aww what a compliment! Thank you!!-Em
Your videos are so inspiring, I've been binge watching them since I found your channel. I started at the same weight so this really hit home and I have also done atkins, keto, lchf over and over, over the years and it never sticks but I keep trying hoping one day it will stick as it did for the two of you. I started back March 20 and I'm down almost 17 lbs and feel great. Its channels like yours that I turn to when I feel like I cant go on and watching them helps keep me on track. Thank you so much for all you've done!!❤❤❤
Congrats!! Soo awesome! 🤗🤗❤️❤️
You are amazing Emily! I am loving all of your videos and I am so happy for you. More than your weight loss... your authenticity is INSPIRING. Speaking your truth gives space for others to speak their truth! Thank you 🙏 ❤️
🥰🥰thank you for such a lovely comment again Natalie!! It means so much to me -Emily
I set here and cried it was like I was watching my story. I started my Keto journey 2 months ago and found you beautiful real ladies from a plateau thank you for your help and this beautiful story
This was powerful!!!! Goosebumps x3! Thanks for sharing :_)
Thank you for always supporting us Nick 😍-Emily
Wow. This is inspiring. I've been doing keto for only a couple of months. I combine this with 16-20 hours of intermittent fasting and found this helps with weight loss and how my body feels. You're giving out a strong and very encouraging message, which is to not give up. Well done on what you've achieved. Should be very pround. I'm also just a few kg from not being obese anymore
i'm not crying...... (insert crying emoji here)..... so proud of u guys!!
Lucy Okaz thank you! This video was definitely emotional to make, especially when I put the wedding footage in there. Such happy memories with you and everyone at my wedding in Mexico, and sad feelings too about how I looked. -Em
@@ketotwins u looked beautiful then, and u look beautiful now! I am insanely happy that u feel better and worked so hard to accomplish ur dream. You have a beautiful heart, Emily! So happy for u! Rooting for u and Sarah!
Awww thanks lucy, that means a lot ❤️❤️
Truth..I'm crying. This story is me...I've not tKen a picture in 5 years. I started keto Monday and already fell off the wagon. Just found this channel. So grateful
I am sitting here with tears because your story is my story. The only difference is I’m 49 now and am… still obese. I started OMAD diet 1 month ago today and went from 216 to 212 knowing full well that if I was doing Keto too, my results would have been way better. But hearing you say that you are a Carboholic. That’s what really hit me. I am too and I need to start saying no 1000 times. Instead of making excuses. I need to stop giving in and giving up! I am so happy for you and I thank you for sharing your story with the world. Keep going! And I will too!!
Side note- As for the people that gave this video a 👎🏻 YOU are what is wrong with this world.
Aww hi Stacy! I know exactly how you feel. Just take it one meal at a time I promise it’s worth it. -Em
This is so great! I have wanted to start keto but there’s always something that stops me, I love junk food but also eat healthy my weight fluctuates between 250-260 I just want to be 150 again😭 I struggled with addiction but when I found out I was pregnant I stuck to it I have been sober 3 yrs & 5months but now I’m starting to get depressed I just want to be active and be able to do all those things with my son😭 I need help😰
Hi Lynda! I definitely know what it’s like to love junk food and to not want to give it up. I’ve lost HUNDREDS of pounds over the years just to gain it back when I quit keto. Never stop trying because there will be a time that you are finally successful. I’ve been on keto for almost 2 years now, but i would still be 262 lbs if I never tried again. Keep trying ❤️-Em
Praying for you hun. You are in a battle with your habits and live temptation. It's so easy to give but the rewards of being hleathy outwights any fading pleasure u get from food. Think of this any time you have food cravings, fasing life with obesity makes everything harder, even having nice walk with your son would be difficult. Stay strong my sister you have a warrior inside of you let her rise. You've overcome 1 addiction, u can over come this too
Check out the carb addiction doc Robert cywes, he addresses the emotional side of eating
I don't know if this will help you but Keto Chow was my start to doing keto. I hate to cook and work a lot of hours so time is short. I do one to three shakes a day and when I want something savory, I fix something simple and quick. Since they taste good, I've not had cravings or felt the loss of sweets. I have lymphedema so a great deal of the weight I carry is fluid (over 100 lbs). And this diet has reduced the inflammation allowing the lymphatic system to begin to heal and the fluid to come off. I'm only six weeks in and scared to allow myself to hope too much. It's been so hard to find what I needed to get it under control. Best wishes
Its a life long effort... Great job! Don't forget if you have trouble keeping the amazing results you have attained that fasting is an option. You are a very strong person. Addiction is difficult. I have lost and regained about 40 pounds each year, because I can't seem to stay on the horse. I get back on each time, but you overcame the addiction. That is amazing.
Omg goals!
Lol thank you Tina! -em
Awesome motivation, gonna watch this every morning ❤❤
I started Keto four days ago I’m loosing more than a pound a day
What are you eating?
Very inspiring. I too struggle with no loss for weeks. Sometimes I gain, sometimes I lose. On the plus side, I have been insulin free for a year now & my Dr. is very supportive of my Keto lifestyle. I used to take 2 kinds of insulin 3x/day & had to test 4x/day at high doses. My glucose levels were off the charts. It has taken a long time to learn what is right for me to eat. Any weight I lose now is just a bonus for me. I feel better in my clothes & bought some smaller ones for future goals. I have more energy than ever. With the nice weather, I plan on getting more active outside. Last weekend camping, I spent time running around playing with cousins who are 9,7 & 2 so their Mom could tend to her new born baby who was less than a week old. Her Mom would then take the baby while we were playing so she & her husband could rest up. I can’t wait to see the kids again & am already planning new games to play. I lost 5 pounds in 3 days! I had also pre-made my keto meals & snacks to take with me. I was proud of myself for thinking ahead. The adults were sitting around the campfire discussing how bad their diabetes was, how much insulin costs etc. All while chowing down on huge burgers, hotdogs, chips, s’mores etc. I have to admit that I did eat a couple of meals in my trailer because it was so hard to watch them gorge away & complain about their health. They all know I am on Keto. My Sister in Law has started asking me about Keto meal planning and for help getting started. She’s tops the scales at over 400 pounds. I told her I would be happy to help. She’s a beautiful lady with an amazing heart. She & my brother have been together for 33 years & just had their 27th Wedding Anniversary. I told her how much I loved her & that I was afraid of her dying young from being so unhealthy. She is a twin too, her twin is her brother. He’s tall, lean & fit. Now if I could just get her to my place where all the ingredients are... One step at a time. We all start somewhere. Thanks for bringing us these amazing recipes & testimonies. It really gives me hope that one day, I too will reach my goal weight and the rest of my family will see that Keto is not a diet but a lifestyle change. 💞
"I still would like to lose another 20 pounds." What??? Dude, you're tiny! What an inspiring story!
Awww haha thank you so much!! -Em
@@ketotwins honestly, I think if you just continue on keto your body will go to its natural weight and everything will just be balanced. If that makes sense. Well, ya know some say too thin some say not, but i believe if we follow a healthy keto diet our bodies will naturally go to the healthiest weight for us individually. You guys look great.
Love both you and your sister!❤ I am technically keto, too, and love being satisfied with what I am eating while staying thin! Love what you girls have done with your channel. Keep it up!
Kudo's to you! I too am embarrassed about my weight. I spent my whole life in special operations (lean and ready to fight) and then I retired and my weight took a spiral up to 280 lbs. Keto has helped me as well as exercising 15 minutes each day. Blood sugar is down, blood pressure is down, weight is coming down. Good luck to you!
That’s great to hear! Wonderful! -Em
Y'all, I am down 6.2 lbs in 6 days !! Im doing lowfat (very low, like 30 gm daily) Keto, because it needs to eat my body fat. Trying to be able to wear my batjing suit on vacation in 2.5 months !😂
Actually, to the comment Liz Ashing made, when ur using the fat off ur own body in lieu of ingesting it, um, YES, its still KETO. Im using my own fat stores to fuel my body, not eating it.
Now it’s a month later how’s it going?
@@donnaml8776 I am down 27.3 lbs !🐱
You could see so much sadness in your before pics and videos.....so happy that you are killing your goals now. You are inspirational!
Aw thank you for your kind words Betsy!! -Em
Thanks for the encouragement! I have been in and out of the keto lifestyle for three years and so frustrated. I need this ! Thanks
Let me start off by saying thank you for sharing your weight loss Journey with all of us! Congratulations to you and your sister for not only changing your bodies by losing the weight and getting healthy both physically but also mentally as well. Adjusting the way you think and feel is more than half the battle in my opinion. I always love to hear your thoughts about your personal weight loss Journey to Better Health. Thank you so much for sharing this very personal and sensitive part of your lives, I appreciate it more than you know! Your journey and advice has helped me a great deal to know that it's not just me that is going through this emotional experience trying to get myself healthy and not be classified as obese! Thank you again for putting yourselves out there for us to benefit! Keep the recipes and good advice coming, love you guys!
The mental aspect of weight-loss is so important 🤗thanks for watching!
Good point, no matter what you do time will pass. Make the most of it! You both look amazing.
I’m on day 8 of this keto journey and already getting rid of a lot of water and got through keto flu feelings too. I’ve not lost weight yet, but my face and eyes are far less swollen. These keto videos are everything to me and I ate radishes today because of another video you produced. I loved this video it made me cry and not because I was sad. Thank you.
Great job! You’ve got this Betty!
This gives me hope, even at age 70. I've started Keto and intermittent fasting to lose weight and to feel better. Thank you for sharing.
It’s never too late Mary! Sooo many in our audience are 65+ and feeling so much better on keto, you’ve got this! -Em
Omg this made me cry insuch a healing way. This video is flawlessly done!
I’m so glad I watched this. I did Keto years ago, before it was a real thing. I lost a bunch of weight. However, I stopped eating that way and the pounds and then some came back. I started again a few weeks ago and I’m loosing weight at a snails pace. But I’m determined to keep going. It’s channels like yours that give my husband and I motivation because of your stories and recipes. Thank you so much.
Thanks so much Michelle! Sarah and I have lost and gained probably 500 pounds over the years, the struggle is real. That’s why we are treating it like a lifestyle now. Can’t go back this time! -Em
I hope you know how much your videos help. Thank you for allowing me to travel this journey with you. You are my inspiration.
❤️❤️ thank you so much Mary!
Wow thank you. You are an inspiration to me. I just started my journey 2monhs ago . 10 lbs down I am at 220 no one knows this even my husband. Thank goodness he loves me dearly as I am . I get it we have been married for 45 years I have continually been gaining weight. I want so bad to be under 200 which has been years. Yes I too am a carb addict. My hubby s doing it with me. The weight is coming off slow but you inspire me hank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️But always remember honey our body is a shell not the person deep inside ❤️
This is such good advice. I went keto some years back, lost loads of weight fast then ate too much fat and it all went wrong. Last year, stressed, carb addicted and pre diabetic I jumped in again, and I’m losing slowly, about 25lb down and hoping to lose maybe another 12 or so. I don’t track, count, I just eat healthy whole foods, concentrate on protein, I’m never hungry and rarely get a craving any more almost 6 months in. Just eat good food and see how you feel and how your clothes fit. My health has improved immensely despite being old and having ME…I will never go back to eating sugar and carbs. You both look fabulous, and well done 😊❤️
