Dr. Becky, I have a question for you about bread. Have you ever heard of sprouted bread supposedly made from organic whole grain and other organic ingredients? My question is, will this supplement for white flour bread? It still has carbs though, like 20g per slice. I prefer this over white bread but I may be barking at the moon and just wishful thinking on my part. What do you recommend?
I am 59. Weighed 217 pounds January. I quit sugar, went keto utilizing intermittent fasting. I walk 5 miles almost every day. Tommorow is August 1st. I weigh 160 pounds. I feel better than I have in decades. I can do this the rest of my life.. good luck everyone!
I am a new retiree from nursing. The stresses were so great I alternated ambien, Xanax and melatonin for sleep. I have eliminated all and I sleep much better these days. But a big problem was the melatonin. I started a yoga practice and I had balance issues with dizziness. All gone after 1 month without melatonin. Just had to share my good news!
Reading your comment in 2024 retired nurse here 5yrs now …the stress of nursing,night shift for over 20 years, well you know the beating the body takes,I plan on intermittent fasting and keto especially the fasting scares me , the age I guess your comment is helpful. Blessings from Pennsylvania 🎚🙏🇮🇱🇺🇸
I'm a fem turning 76 this summer. This diet works. Started 4/12/21 189lb. On 40th day I've lost 20lb. Daily cals betw 1200-1400; carbs at 25% max. Kept food diary. No sugar absolute. Target 155 lb. Clothes now loose noticeably. I'll update.Many thanks to Dr. Becky.
Exactly Becky. , I was 63 years old weighted 345 pounds went keto and lost 50 pounds and plateaued at 295, started intermittently fasting and lost another 20 pounds and still losing weight . This happened over a span of 1-1/2 years. I will continue wi the healthy rate of weight loss. ( slow and steady) Absolutely no refined carbs at all in my eating and no calorie counting. I am a big man and want to continue to lose weight until I weight 240 pounds. Although the I don’t watch the scale, I just look in the mirror every morning admiring my transformation and enjoy I well I feel . Feeling great and healthy.
Spot on and totally consistent with my personal experience👍 I am 66 years old, 6’1” and down over 80 pounds from 295 to 210. No more medications after years on them. No more Pre Diabetes. I feel fantastic. Thank you, you are saving life’s!
I am 77 and have been working hard since retirement to lose weight. So far I'm down 75 lbs and have about 40 more I'd like to shed (but it has become much harder). I have listened to everybody and tried everything but keep coming back to Dr. Becky because she makes sense...no hype...no hard sell...just the facts, ma'am, nothing but the facts AND what she advocates is sustainable. In truth, 0-1-2-3 (along with low-carb emphasis) is the default foundation to any success I've had and in addition Becky seems like a woman you'd like to have as a neighbor or a personal friend. I have no refined sugar in the house. My pantry and my fridge stock ONLY "legal" foods. So she has had a very positive affect on my behavior and outlook.
TY for not turning this into an advance chemistry class. Your videos offer simple, straight forward direction & encouragment. I return to your channel quite often. TY TY !!
Im 62 and started keto and intermittent fasting in march 2021. Im no longer pre diabetic, my liver has returned to a normal size, my osteoarthritis is gone, I have lost 20 kilo with minimal exercise, I no longer have excruciating gallbladder attacks, I feel great, have reduced my dress size from a 22 to a 16 but now need a 14! My brain is sharper, my mood is better, and I'm staying on this diet for as long as I live. I'm excited about moving through my sixties now.. Just wish the wrinkles would take a hike!
I'm 76 years old and I started the low carb diet two weeks ago and today I weighed and have lost 7 lbs. . I am already feeling better with less joint pain and more energy. This week I will try the intermittent fasting. I am very happy with this program and Dr. Becky is such an encouragement.
I'm a 72 year old male who's been on the LCHF lifestyle for 14 months. I've lost 55 pounds and improved blood conditions. Key to my success is my spouse of 49 years. Key supporter! Both of us are still very active.
What a wonderful inspiring video. I turned 65 last year and have several serious health issues. I now understand that my "mindset" is the number one obstacle to weight loss and improved health. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your subscribers success stories. Reading these gave me happy tears for them and is encouraging me to get myself out of this slump. 62 years old, overweight and tired. I'm jumping on the weight loss train! Thank you Dr.!
In June of 2018 I went to my Primary appointment and weighed 354.6 lbs at 5’10 feet tall. My cholesterol was high and pre diabetic with blood sugar at 118. I finally decided to do something. On UA-cam I happened to find the Obesity Code and Dr Jason Fung videos and that started to change my life. Also I am now 72 years old. I do OMAD and LCHF keeping my carbs around 20 daily. I now weigh 197 lbs. I don’t have constant hunger or cravings. I am able and do walk 3 miles a day.
At 66 I found the weight loss to be easy. Prior to discovering Intermittent Fasting and Low Carb I was eating way too much sugar and simple (starchy) Carbs, plus my insulin levels were very high all the time. I was always tired, my joints hurt, and I felt like my brain was in a fog all the time. Once I discovered Intermittent Fasting and Low Carb, I was so desperate I was willing to try anything. Within 4 days I felt an improvement and by 2 weeks there was no doubt in my mind that I was on the right path. The pain I felt from excessive sugar and carbohydrates (high insulin) was enough to make me hate even thinking about having them. Now 6 months later I'm almost 60 pounds lighter and within 18 pounds of my ideal weight. I've been doing Intermittent Fasting and Low Carb for so many months it just seems so natural. I'm not sure what I'll do once I reach my ideal weight, but I keep pushing as I move towards my dream.
Congratulations Bob. When I read your comments they describe my sort journey so far. I had all of the symptoms that you had and at 63 was at 247 pounds. In just one month of Keto and intermittent fasting, I’ve shed 20 pounds. I don’t want those pounds back. I don’t know where I will end up weight-wise but I sure feel better!
I am a 63 year old healthcare provider (Optometrist). I have lost 80 lbs (similar to your husband’s story). I no longer need my CPAP for sleep apnea, off the 2 meds I was using for hypertension and A1c down from 9.9 to 4.9 without medication. In fact I take no medication of any kind now. I lost 50 lbs in the first 5 months and additional 30 over the next 3-4 months. I did LCHF and intermittent fasting and still do. My only regret is that I didn’t know to try this 15-20 years ago. “2 Fit Docs” and your individual channel have both been a great source inspiration and support in my journey. Thank you!
I am 63 and have had the same experience. Over the last 25 years I have had very little activity, WAY too much carb rich food and craft beer! I have undone 25 years of poor diet choices in 6 months with Keto and IF! All thanks to the principles taught by Becky and Keith. Better yet, I have learned how to manage my diet for a healthier last 3rd of my life! I too wish I would have known about this 20 years ago! Even better, several friends and family have reversed their issues based on my experience. How is this process still considered "underground" or at best, "alternative"?
I’m 67 years old and have been following your advice and videos for the past 3 weeks, I’ve been amazed to lose 8 lbs and eat comfortably with food that I’m enjoying more. Thanks so much.
Thank you for addressing over 60 weight loss! New sub here, at 65 weight watchers clicked for me, Iam down 42 lbs, it def is a mind game, some days Iam more focused than others, but losing weight is more about food intake than exercise.
At the age of 65 I started watching Dr Becky and stopped eating refined sugar (and artificial sweeteners). After about 3 or 4 days I quit looking for all the sweets I was used to eating like cakes, pies, and cookies. I’ve always liked salads and vegetables and not been much of a pasta and bread fan but haven’t cut out carbs like fruits and beans. In 3 months I’ve lost 20 pounds without much effort (my Dr suggested 50 and I’ll get there). I can see me eating this way forever and being happy with it.
Age 73. Started a vodka diet 15 months ago and began reduced carbs - ~20-30g/day, skip breakfast. Went from bmi 27.9 to 24 (lost 23#); A1C now in normal range, all blood readings have improved. I severely limit my vodka intake to 10 drinks or less daily and never before 9am. No sugary mixes - just Zevia. Life is good. And by the way, Dr. Becky, you rock. You were instrumental in my change to low carb and you probably gave me an extra few years of life. Thank you.
I’m 52. Started keto in August and I’m down 46 pounds. I foresee this way of eating for the rest of my life. I have no cravings and am rarely actually hungry.
57 yr old Latina here. I started my healthy food choices July 10 2020, low carb, high fat. Hgb A1C 7.2 wgt 210. Jan 2021 wgt 180 with A1C 5.9 ! It can be done all! Was taking metformin twice daily, now once daily. If my A1C decreases to 5.7 my physician will eliminate all together! God is Good! Bless you all!
I watch your videos occasionally and have learnt alot along with my own research. Just recently I came across a video of losing weight over 60+ . I'm 65 years old. With the guidance of your wisdom through your videos for weight loss and diet changes, I have reached my goal. Last July/2019 I was 205lbs, I craved sugar treats enjoyed rice and pasta and bakery breads all my life. Finally I was not happy with the fat I was carrying, especially around my waist line and feeling sluggish. With the combination of the 16/8 fasting and eating between 12 to 8, low carb, and low sugar and healthy fats and diet changes and walking about 7 miles aday with ease I have reached and maintained my goal of 165 lbs and back to a 32 " waist within a year. I dont feel hungry when I'm fasting. I feel great, no sugar or carb cravings, Doctor was amazed with my cholesterol and triglyceride and A1C levels. He knows now what changed :). So people 60+ get on board and stick with it!! Thank You Dr. Becky. 😘
Dear Dr. Becky❤️I'm 70 and FINEALLY found the key to healthy weight loss AND feeling good and being healthy!!! I've lost 35 lbs. in the past 4 months, never felt better!!! Thank you for helping me improve my life on every level!!! With love and gratitude, Sue😘❤️🙋‼️🌸🌸🌺🌺🌻🌻❣
I’ve watched videos with you and your husband and never realized how therapeutic it was listening to your voice, not to mention how simple you’ve make this journey for me to follow....Sincerely 👏🏽
I'm a 72 retired male. In March 2021 I weighed 244 pounds, was borderline diabetic, I'd be out of breath walking up more than one flight of stairs, I had sugar cravings after 8pm, and had I stomach problems almost daily. After watching several videos on intermittent fasting by Dr Becky and Dr Jason Fung I decided to give it a go. I now eat 2 Keto meals a day at 2 and 6pm. As of Sept 1, 2021 I've lost 6" off my waist, my weight is now 188, I can walk up 5 flights of stairs without being out of breath, blood sugar normal, I no longer have sugar cravings and I have no stomach problems. It works and is now my lifestyle, no longer a diet.
I'm 77. went on keto at 209 pounds. at four months I'm 172. Take steps two at a time. Don't need to spread my legs to make room for my belly when I squat.
@@susanfanning9480 Thanks for asking. I'm at 165. Went down to 160, but have relaxed a bit during Covid and started paying more attention when I got up to this weight. I intend to take my time but head back toward 160.
One of the biggest challenges for me has been that my spouse can live on bread, candy, ice cream, pretzels, rice, noodles, potatoes, etc. and he's the same pants size he was 42 years ago when we married. His idea of exercise is walking to the mailbox & back. Not so for me. Finally, I set aside a separate pantry for my "keto safe" foods so I'm not tempted to backslide (as much!) and at mealtimes I've gone to a modified "buffet" set up. The things we can both eat are on the kitchen counter, my keto foods are on the breakfast bar, and we both just help ourselves from the appropriate area. Sounds complicated, but it's working for us.
It's funny my mom is the same as your spouse she will be 92 in 6 months she eats whatever she wants. She has never been over 120 pounds her entire life except when she was pregnant. Eats lots of sugar anything she wants. No diabetes ! Some people have all the luck !
@@douglaslett7504 They say after 80 it's all genetics. Your mom is blessed. However, as per above, just remember, if its working then it's not stupid. Wishing you guys success in your goals.
TOFI (Thin on the outside, fat on the inside). My sister is the same, she can eat anything and never gets any bigger - however, these people as not as lucky as one first assumes. The damage is still there, it is gradually building up around their internal organs. Whilst they think they may be genetically just lucky, they are massively disadvantaged, because they cannot see the damage. As my sister has recently discovered with her latest bloods test and other things starting to go wrong. I used to be the fat one, she was always giving me dietary advice - So now we are both converts - and both doing far better than we have for years! Eating too many carbs just has the effect of making one want to eat more carbs (who could ever eat just one Oreo?). Replace the sugar and carbs with more fat in your diet and within a few days the cravings will start to vanish and you will not feel Hungary all of the time. It works.
I’m 68 and have been struggling with weight loss for a long time . My doctor said I need to go on insulin and that woke me up .plus I’m having knee replacement surgery in early 2024. I started on OMAD which I quickly lost inches and felt lighter . I stopped sugar and felt my pain lessen . I have been losing 10 lbs a month which is exciting since on ADF and just feel better my thyroid meds have dropped to 100mg from 125 mg daily , cholesterol is normal .My blood glucose is still high at 8.6 but will be vigilant about sugar . Absolutely do not want to have insulin shots daily . I walk but knee slows me down . It’s been 5 years since my knee buckled under me . Feel better all around for the most part . Fasting really works .😊
Thank you Dr. Gillaspy 🌼 I will be 61 next month, 5'8", 120, and very blessed. I am a pescetarian. I don't exercise much, do the 16-18 hour fast every day, and have lots of energy. 🤗 With God's love and help you can do it and is not difficult at all. The best for all of you that can set your minds and be deliberate, intentional, and can exercise the self-control that is available to you in Him. Love 💟
my wife is 67,has a knee replacement and is awaiting another plus waiting on rotator cuff operation.she cannot excersise yet has lost over 10 kilos by living the keto way.its been slow but steady
As a plus 70 yo woman who has has been overweight her entire life I have found that a LCHF diet works but I have changed up 2 things : I have increased the protein and increased my intermittent fasting - although not for everyone , my normal fasting is usually 42 to 48 hours, no side effects, feel good and have continued to lose weight. I am more aware of what & when I' m eating than before. Have lower my BP and all lipid tests are within normal range !!
I’m 61, back doing Keto/intermittent fasting -lost 22 lbs so far. Approx 20 lbs to go. No more sugar, no more bad carbs, no more bad carb cravings. Woohoo!! (Getting back to resistance training & HIIT on the recumbent bike) * I do not take any pharmaceutical medication. Good info Dr Becky! Thank you & hello from Canada 🙋🏻♀️
Thank you for your continuing motivational videos. Being 62 I am even more aware how easy it is to fall into previous bad eating habits. Thank you for keeping me on track🤗🤗
I started eating low carb. 16/8 intermittent fasting. I am 6 ft. tall. July 10, 227 lbs, belly measurement 45 inches. July 18 I turned 65. This morning I weighed 196. Belly measurement 38.5 inches. This is working. Beating the sugar craving is the hardest. It doesn't seem like all or nothing. If I have a high carb meal, or eat out of my window, it doesn't seem like a disaster. I just return to my plan. I have made contact with a bunch of my Class of `72 classmates. I will share this video with them. Thank you for the video.
Wow! Congrats, ScottF1954! It's great to see the scale go down, but the health benefits that you are gaining are priceless! Thanks for the share. I appreciate it!
I've been following you for more than a month. I took the plunge on Nov 8, 2020 and I'm just into my 4th day. Second day was very unpleasant but third was fine. I'm encouraged to continue and love what I learn from you.
Dr. Becky, you (and your husband) really have the best videos on this topic that I've been able to find. Thanks so much for cutting through the misinformation prevalent on the internet, and motivating us--in your calm way--to do better with our diets!
I am 66 1.75m and went from 80kg to 67kg in about six months. Two brisk walks 3.5kg every day plus swimming. And one meal a day but lime soda any time. One meal before 8pm after 1pm. Lean is good. Plus it means I can go have a lovely meal and wine once in a while. No snacks, candy or biscuits or cakes at all. Means my BMI is mid point too. Good luck everyone.
Thank you for this video, I will be 62 in 4 months. I have been low carb, gluten free for almost a year and have dropped 50 pounds. The sugar was easier to drop than the bread, but I am feeling better and looking better. It is much harder as we get older.
@@beckygillaspy yes it just takes making up your mind to eat healthy and make good choices. I yo-yo dieted for years and had pretty much given up till my daughter and I were diagnosed with PCOS- and learned what works and what doesn't. It's still slow, but is working. Live your videos they keep me motivated and on track.
You are the very embodiment that this lifestyle works. You look fantastic and so much younger and healthier looking than when you started on UA-cam. I might not be a woman or 60 but I know I look younger myself and feel better than I have in thirty years, same can be said for my wife. I'm 22/2 IF every day for over a year now and I keep my carbs around 50g per day and everything's better.
I turned 60 back in March and started Intermittent fasting on June 3rd and it works. I statrted at about 202 and at 188 in 3 months and still eat the things i enjoy occasionally like pizza , ice cream. I can tighten my diet up and will. It works! I also doing weight training and added more muscle. I can do the same weight and do cardio like i was in my 30's. The main thing no counting calories and the cravings are not as strong and I can maintain this life style!
hI, I'm a 64 years old man from Norway who loves your videoes. Today i'm 210 lbs heavy. 6,1 feet tall. Lost 110 lbs last year by eating Helthy KETO and intermitent Fasting (IF). (OMAD the last 8 months), Gonna feed like this for rest of my days... well may be turn away from OMAD to 18:6 intervals whan I've reached my goal ,.. 25 more lbs to go. Godd luck, Folks!
Years ago, I did the Adkins Protein Diet with carbs under 25. I lost from 181 to 134, before the wheels came off. I was an early 40's 5'8" male. At that time, the trouble became that I got addicted to Adkins and losing weight. I literally couldn't stop. In high school, I wrestled at 136 and remember struggling mightily to make that weight. I was a normally fit athlete at 142 pounds. Then, in my 40's, I loved it when women told me, "You have the body of a teenager..." Now Keto is easy for me at 68, but I hope the old addiction doesn't come back. I weigh 149 at the moment... -
@@suzan1mal I know why do people have to throw around the stupid acronyms if they want to help people then they should say what it is. I believe people that throw around these acronyms and brag about how much weight they’ve lost or more about stroking their own Egos then they are about helping people
I've only just found Dr Becky on UA-cam and she is the perfect mentor for healthy eating. Your calm and common sense approach to weight loss and healthy eating instils confidence in me. I have always been in a healthy weight range, I am 60 years old, 160cm tall and currently weigh 60Kg. (Too many sixes in there!) My problem is that I can no longer fit into most of my jeans and pants which is demoralizing. Most of my weight gain has been over the past two years. So, I am going to try reducing carbs and see what happens. I have never been addicted to sugar but have enjoyed the occasional sweet biscuit or piece of cake. I also enjoy a glass of wine with cheese and crackers a few times per week, I think that might have to change. I love watching your videos, I always gets something new out of them. Thanks Becky.
I am 63 and was addicted to sugar. A pint of ice cream a day. Or a large bag of M&Ms. I gave up sugar in May and have not looked back. I no longer crave it and have lost weight. I plan on keeping sugar out of my diet.
Good on you... I agree with you I'm 57 and being either been a runner on my life I haven't had a problem with weight but giving up sugar has been great for my body and encourage you to keep at it find some exercise that you find fun and enjoy your life.
Omg..wish I could give up sugar..I'm going to be 61 in October..any suggestions on how I can substitute some thing for sugar till I can stop....I've been struggling to quit eating sugar..I'm 5'5' and 160..so I'm not terribly over weight..but I need help before I get really bad..HELP!! LOL..I have a back injury so my exercise is also limited 😥
@@michelehice8338 I'm 65 and I started June 1, 2020. I went cold turkey on sugar and foods that contain sugar. I could not "tone" it down. Chocolate calls out to me. So, cold turkey was the only way I could handle it. The first few days were rough. About the 5th day in, I realized it wasn't bad at all. I could walk right by the cookies and candy at the store and not be tempted. I also have other health problems. High blood pressure, low thyroid, sleep apnea, Lots to loose. I'm down 27 pounds, have 75 to go. 1/4 of the way there! I'm the turtle. Next week I'm going to try some gentle exercises. Intermittent fasting helps. My husband and I have our first meal at noon and our last meal at 6pm. Can you do gentle walking?
Thanks Dr. Becky. I'm turning 67 next month and have been low carbing for just less than a year. All the clothes I've been used to wearing are falling and slipping off now, I actually like the way I look, and feel good about it. I used to weigh 270lbs and have lost fifty so far. I can actually see myself in the not too distant future getting back into my old size 38" jeans. Yes, avoiding sugar actually becomes a pleasure. Maybe I'll get off the Onglyza and Metformen soon....? Hope so.
This video is refreshing since you focus on 60+. Thank you for breaking down the process for me. You make perfect sense. Now then...working on this belly fat! It is discouraging. But I'm workung on it! Thank you again!
I was a full blown carb addict. I was also vegan and became morbidly obese and pre diabetic. 5 years ago my dr told me about keto. I had to do a lot of research about eating higher fat before starting, being an RN with nearly 40 yrs of experience teaching patients about a low fat diet. After doing my research I decided to try it. I was 59 at the time. I had also struggled with my weight most of my adult life. I had been on nearly every diet imaginable and could never lose. Fast forward 5 years … I have lost 85 lbs. I have maintained this loss and am very healthy. I feel better then I did decades ago. I have totally lost my desire for sugar and my sugar tolerance is very low. I rarely get hungry and do TRE most every day. This way of eating does, indeed, work.
I'm overweight lost 226 with surgery, failed. Got 2 large hernias from loose belly skin, survived cancer to fall 2 days after last treatment and nearly was paralyzed. My daughter is now going shopping for the good things. Wish me luck. We are starting a slow walking regiment to build up to walking better
Dr. Becky. I Started using your advice and I have been successful for 2 weeks. This is the first time in many years that i lasted longer than a few days on a diet or even IF by itself. Now, I am doing low carb with intermittent fasting as you suggested. I am 82 and going a little more gradually than someone younger might. I am at 13 hours IF along with about 80 carbs a day. Chocolate candy was my downfall along with cookies and other sweets. I have not had any candy for the two weeks, therefore, no sugar. I am using your saying: DON'T STOP BEFORE THE MAGIC HAPPENS. I don't always feel real well but I know it will take time to adjust to low carb eating. I am enjoying the salads. I am eating 2 smaller ones rather than the large 4 cups. I am watching the salad dressings I use. I found a wonderful Caesar dressing with avocado oil by Paul Newman. Eating low carb I am having a lot more vegetables than I ever had before. I have at least 50 lbs to lose but I am hoping to feel better by summer having lose some of it. Dr. Becky, I have your first book and it has a wealth of information in it. Thanks for everything. Lucy
I am 64 years old. The first 35 years of my life I was thin and active. I could not add any bulk despite lots of effort. Over the last 25 years ago I have gained about 140 pounds. (Be careful what you wish for.) This happened gradually through eating too much too often, a sedentary life style and drinking lots of local craft beer. Looking at my daughter's wedding pictures I realized I resembled a beach ball with a shirt on! That day I resolved to quit drinking beer for a while. Someone I know had lost a great deal of weight using the keto diet. That night, out of curiosity, I googled Keto Diet. I spent the rest of the night watching UA-cam videos and decided I could do it. I observed a very strict keto diet and after 6 or 7 weeks I began to play with intermittent fasting. The fasting became easy and part of my weekly routine. By December I had lost 100 pounds and felt amazing. It was so much easier than it sounds! My doctor was familiar with keto and impressed by the incredible change in my blood work. (A1C from 6.7 in 2016 to 5.1 in October 2019) I have relaxed a little since December but have maintained the weight loss. I still observe a 16-8 eating strategy and do 24 - 36 hour fasts regularly. I avoid all carbs except vegetables. Every time I long for a beer, a pizza or popcorn, I just bend over and tie my shoes or pet my dog. One cool collateral effect has been the number of people in my life that have taken up this life style and achieved similar results.
Love your input and assistance. I started May 2021 at 336 pounds. Now, Oct 2022 I weigh 184 pounds. I exercise on an exercise bike daily. High protein, medium fat and very low carb has worked for me. As well as 12/12 IF
I got a new bike for my birthday, best and easiest exercise ever, I never dread my evening rides! How long do you ride and do u alternate or change ur levels of tension during ur sessions? I’m 61, slowly shedding pounds, going to try adding some things I’m reading in the comments here. Oh, and roughly how many carbs are u eating daily? Thanks!
Since I was in high school, I realized sugar and refined carbs were bad. Before I even knew what the Atkins diet was, I realized that's what I was doing. Now in the past 3 months I have been studying the ketogenic eating plan. I'm 67yo Male, I'm very active hiking, cycling and backpacking. I just completed the JMT, 222 miles in 14 days. I wanted the most nutritious food, in the smallest size and lightest weight. So, eating can be trained! Also for the past two years, I journal everything I eat, my body works good at 2400 calories aday, and once a week I check my weight and blood pressure. No weight and very health BP, without meds. The the mind is were it started for me. Train the mind and the body will follow. Thanks for the video.
I'm 66 and decided to go Keto. I lost 50 pounds in three months. I joined a gym and worked out at least 4 days a week. It is much easier to give up sugar/carbs than fats.
I'm 65 and have been thin all my life, I weigh 130 and 5' 6 " .I'm very Active and I work hard at everything I do. I keep busy and eat Healthy, I never smoked or drank alcohol. I love to dance too! But that's just me! I love people at any size, I don't judge. 😊❤️
I’m a 64 former diabetic and was at 192. Went whole food, minimal whole grains, cut carbs and all processed foods, cardio half hour and half hour of weight training 5 times a week. No keto, no intermittent fasting. 6 months later in at 158 and look and feel completely different.
I really like your practical advice, which can be applied even to those of us following Weight Watchers. I eat 1/4 of an avocado per day most days. And listening to your discussion on sugar is enough to make me afraid of it.
A bit more that a year ago I weighed 275 pounds, had zero energy, my joints hurt, and I was tired all the time. I just assumed that because I was 66 years old, the pain and tiredness was part of growing old. Then I discovered Intermittent Fasting and the Low Carb/High Fat diet. A year later I've lost over 70 pounds, my joints no longer hurt, I'm not tired all the time, and I have my energy back. In the early days of my chance, exercise seemed impossible, but as I lost the weight and got better, exercise became a whole lot easier.
Susan Fanning I'm doing very well, I hit the target weight last month, BMI < 25. I still do Intermittent Fasting and avoid sugar as much as possible. It's very common for me to do 5+ mile walks three times a week.
New subscriber soon to be 60. I thank God I have found your channel. I am studying some books and applying things as I learn them. I have 35 pounds to lose and I am thinking low carb with intermittent fasting will be my plan. Then if I have a few stubborn pounds kick it up with longer fast or keto till the rest comes off. Health is my # 1 concern I do not want to go down the same road as some family members with handfuls of medication and excepting my new fat clothes. Thank you for being such a pleasure to listen to and great teacher. God Bless
THANK YOU ...DR. BECKY❤❤for your straight forward info. For facts...basic..how to....and the simplicity of it all..health info...AND CHANGES I NOW FEEL I CAN MAKE...Thank you again❤❤❤
I lost 60 lbs - to 170 - at age 65. Took a year. The key for me was ratcheting down my food intake while trying to make sure I was getting good nutrition. Now, to maintain this weight, I eat fruits and vegetables mainly, followed by dairy, nuts, and meat. One day's menu is typically a piece of fruit and a glass of milk for lunch, salad for dinner, and yogurt for dessert. Doesn't sound very exciting, but I've learned that when you don't eat much EVERYTHING tastes good!
I've done all of this - healthy fats, eliminate refined carbs and sugar, intermittent fasting - but the bottom line is I have to plan my meals and keep track of what I eat.
Dr becky I'm Sixty four now and have lost 28kbs in six months via cutting out 90 percent of what I used to eat.... No bread no crisps or cakes or biscuits or processed meats and meals... I haven't found it to be as hard as I thought to be honest, I do have apples twice or three times a week and add to porridge in the morning too.. But have cut down on dried fruits a bit as they are full Of sugar too.. I was a comfort eater all my life but do feel better now and thanks paula in the uk
Thanks for the video. I am 61 and overweight, but I have Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome so find it more and more difficult to exercise. From the prescription drugs from my Doctor over the years, I now have NAFLD too. I do Intermittent Fasting 15 or 16 hours a day and drink lemon in warm water on an empty stomach upon waking. Any advice would be great. Thank you.
I quit eating sugar and and within days was pain free. For decades I suffered from constant pain in both knees and my neck and back after an accident. I feel like I experienced a miracle!
I'm 63 I weighed 208 lbs now I'm at 172 , I've been on Keto for 6 mths after a rough start I am now at the point where I do it automatically along with intermittent fasting I never feel hungry I will keep doing keto as I get to eat lots of great meals and don't crave carbs at all .
As someone who is only a few months away from 60, but who has recently discovered your 'high fat - low carb' eating regime, I have hope that, when I do reach 60, my weight and general health will be better and I will be able to enjoy life well beyond 60! Thanks for helping both myself and my wife - we will keep up with watching your videos as they are always so helpful and give us so much information!
I'm 65 IF for 18 hours a day and OMAD (one meal a day) Giving up sugar is very hard, so what I do when the carving starts, I get a container of Strawberry Cream Cheese. Works everytime👍 I've tried making the Keto cookies, but they just don't cook right. The cream cheese works the best for me, I've lost 28 pounds in 4 months, still have s lot of weight to go. KETO FOR LIFE🙏
IF and a low carb diet (recently also wheat-less) enabled me to shed 25 lbs over the last half year. I now am 65, weighing 160 lbs, not using any meds and feeling great. It is true, you can get used fast to no sugar, no snacks, no bread/cakes/cookies/carbs in general. Switch to lots of vegetables, (moderate) fruits, meat, fish, eggs, poultry, butter and olive oil. And be healthy.
At 59 I weighed 210 at 5'4", I started keto and two years later I weigh 140. Keto/carnivore works. it's amazing, I'm rarely hungry and I feel better than I have in 20 years.
Thank you for this. I've succeeded to bring my weight down with fat intake increase and sugar/carb reduction. What I need to do is be more consistent with these, plus add the 16/8-hr. "intermittent fast" eating schedule. I know from occasionally bypassing late-night snacking that it does help. Thanks for presenting this wonderfully NOT-complicated advice.
a year ago I changed my diet to mainly fresh veggies and fruits. First drink of the day is Lemon water, followed by 16 oz celery juice, and 16oz metal detox smoothie. I drink Lemon water all day. Have a healthy lunch and dinner and 2 healthy snacks. I no longer have high b/p and high cholesterol. i have lost 43 pounds. I low impact exercise 3 days a week. I have cut out coffee, wine, dairy, eggs, grains, and meat except on a special occasion. I feel better, move better, sleep better, my skin is so much smoother and softer. Same with my hair. I am 71 and I feel better than when I was 60. I still have another 40 lbs I want to lose.
I've just turned 57 years old was in a car accident in 1987. I walk with a cane on my good days and when you can't exercise because of serious injuries you gain weight. I'm diabetic and with keto I've been able to go off of all diabetes medication and have lost 111 lbs. I'm still losing and getting better. So, even if you can't exercise you can eat right and intermittent fast and lose weight and more importantly get a lot of your health back. Keto for life and don't let big pharma or anybody else try to talk you out of regaining your health. The choice is yours and the small amount of work is yours. If I have a sandwich out I eat all but the bread. Bread was my nemesis now I hardly give it a second look. Besides, nothing tastes as good as thin feels.
My metabolism went downhill once I started menopause at 42. I’m 57 and gave up sugar and carbs two months ago. I’ve lost 15 lbs. I have to work very hard at losing every single lb. But I feel so great and full of energy. My digestion issues have mostly gone away. I feel liberated from eating processed foods.
I was a carb addict for sure, and actually mourned having to give up sugar and many carbs when diagnosed with T2. But yes, I did it, and I no longer am tempted by sugar. It's good to know others this age group are having the same problem with losing weight. I have just decided I need to stay within my carb and calorie counts and not get on the scale. Weighing can be the fastest way for me to get discouraged and give it all up. I just figure I do this way of eating, it's my life, it's for my blood sugar, if I lose weight in the process, great. I'm not going to stress over my weight, and at least I'm not gaining. And... I am actually enjoying good foods that I eat low carb/keto, so it's okay.
Retired last year due to a disability which greatly affects my ability to walk. I was afraid that I would not be able to lose weight with so little activity. But I started cutting my carbs way down and eating only twice a day. To my surprise I am losing weight. Down 20 pounds in about 5 weeks. I am determined to keep this new habit going and hopefully lose 20-30 more pounds.
I had given up all wheat products except bread. I thought I would be able to control my consumption of bread to one slice a day. I was wrong. But once I made the commitment to give up bread, the rest fell into place, hunger and cravings were gone. I haven't lost weight yet, but my joint pain is dramatically lessened. And the severe edema in my feet and ankles is improving. I've only been fully committed to Keto for a week.
I've never been asked to stop eating before midnight for any surgery, or other medical procedure that requires a fasting state. Since I find it easy to get to sleep before 12 - it's never been an issue. So - my attempt at 16:8 with food from 1pm - 9pm is, so far, the best i/'ve been able to do and not wake in the night.
Hi, I'm 58 and have started this journey a few weeks ago. I do not miss sugar, fruit and a whole slew of other foods that were just making loosing weight impossible. I have a thyroid problem and I hope this diet will help this situation of mine. I did start this diet to get rid of the weight so my back will feel better and be stronger. I had back surgery 15 years ago and a lot of muscles don't work anymore. They just cramp up and cause a lot of pain. So far, I have lost eight pounds in four weeks and I don't take any meds except my thyroid meds. I feel younger and stronger. (Maybe the gray hair will go too! HA!!!)
Sara Truman. I too have a thyroid problem & had back surgery just over 20 years ago. Just wondering if there were any improvements in your thyroid? I've been doing the diet for 11 weeks, quite strict @ 20g carbs or under. But still an insomniac with thyroid issues. Not giving up, but get disheartened when I read comments about how rejuvenated folk feel. Pleased for them of course, but wee bit disappointed for myself. Had to mute the talking scales or I'd be in therapy & scales in recycling bin. Wish you well. Take care & stay safe.
I also have thyroid problems. I lost 35 pounds in 2016 on keto/IF while living in a different state. The insomnia was in full force then but the keto made it somewhat better. I've been eating quasi-keto for around 6 months and committed keto for 3 weeks now. The morning wakefulness is worse than ever. Weight loss has been so slow, pain relief and energy improvement that I got in 2016 have not yet returned. ☹️. I've begun thinking it's the water. (I do drink tap water. Old city=soft water, current town=hard water.) Ugh! Keep hoping my body will straighten itself out! Good luck to you.
Thanks for watching! You can learn about my coaching program here: www.drbeckyfitness.com/weight-loss-coaching-program-fhp-2/
Dr. Becky, I have a question for you about bread. Have you ever heard of sprouted bread supposedly made from organic whole grain and other organic ingredients? My question is, will this supplement for white flour bread? It still has carbs though, like 20g per slice. I prefer this over white bread but I may be barking at the moon and just wishful thinking on my part. What do you recommend?
Dr. Becky, is stevia as sweetener safe to use?
I am 59. Weighed 217 pounds January. I quit sugar, went keto utilizing intermittent fasting. I walk 5 miles almost every day. Tommorow is August 1st. I weigh 160 pounds. I feel better than I have in decades. I can do this the rest of my life.. good luck everyone!
great job!! how did you do it?
Wooooooooooohooooooo!!! Awesome!
Congratulations Vicky😃
Great job! Continue your healthy journey!
Thanks for sharing!
I am a new retiree from nursing. The stresses were so great I alternated ambien, Xanax and melatonin for sleep. I have eliminated all and I sleep much better these days. But a big problem was the melatonin. I started a yoga practice and I had balance issues with dizziness. All gone after 1 month without melatonin. Just had to share my good news!
Reading your comment in 2024 retired nurse here 5yrs now …the stress of nursing,night shift for over 20 years, well you know the beating the body takes,I plan on intermittent fasting and keto especially the fasting scares me , the age I guess your comment is helpful. Blessings from Pennsylvania 🎚🙏🇮🇱🇺🇸
I'm a fem turning 76 this summer. This diet works. Started 4/12/21 189lb. On 40th day I've lost 20lb. Daily cals betw 1200-1400; carbs at 25% max. Kept food diary. No sugar absolute. Target 155 lb. Clothes now loose noticeably. I'll update.Many thanks to Dr. Becky.
My target is 150 and I started around 180. At 160 now and a little stuck but hanging in there. Clothes fit so much better.

Exactly Becky. , I was 63 years old weighted 345 pounds went keto and lost 50 pounds and plateaued at 295, started intermittently fasting and lost another 20 pounds and still losing weight . This happened over a span of 1-1/2 years. I will continue wi the healthy rate of weight loss. ( slow and steady) Absolutely no refined carbs at all in my eating and no calorie counting.
I am a big man and want to continue to lose weight until I weight 240 pounds. Although the I don’t watch the scale, I just look in the mirror every morning admiring my transformation and enjoy I well I feel .
Feeling great and healthy.
Wow. How are you doing now? Im 64.
Spot on and totally consistent with my personal experience👍 I am 66 years old, 6’1” and down over 80 pounds from 295 to 210. No more medications after years on them. No more Pre Diabetes. I feel fantastic.
Thank you, you are saving life’s!
Wonderful ⭐️ I'm 65....
What did you do Jim? Please share.
I am 77 and have been working hard since retirement to lose weight. So far I'm down 75 lbs and have about 40 more I'd like to shed (but it has become much harder). I have listened to everybody and tried everything but keep coming back to Dr. Becky because she makes sense...no hype...no hard sell...just the facts, ma'am, nothing but the facts AND what she advocates is sustainable. In truth, 0-1-2-3 (along with low-carb emphasis) is the default foundation to any success I've had and in addition Becky seems like a woman you'd like to have as a neighbor or a personal friend. I have no refined sugar in the house. My pantry and my fridge stock ONLY "legal" foods. So she has had a very positive affect on my behavior and outlook.
TY for not turning this into an advance chemistry class. Your videos offer simple, straight forward direction & encouragment. I return to your channel quite often. TY TY !!
Im 62 and started keto and intermittent fasting in march 2021. Im no longer pre diabetic, my liver has returned to a normal size, my osteoarthritis is gone, I have lost 20 kilo with minimal exercise, I no longer have excruciating gallbladder attacks, I feel great, have reduced my dress size from a 22 to a 16 but now need a 14! My brain is sharper, my mood is better, and I'm staying on this diet for as long as I live. I'm excited about moving through my sixties now.. Just wish the wrinkles would take a hike!
Wonderful! Congratulations, Tracey!
I'm 76 years old and I started the low carb diet two weeks ago and today I weighed and have lost 7 lbs. . I am already feeling better with less joint pain and more energy. This week I will try the intermittent fasting. I am very happy with this program and Dr. Becky is such an encouragement.
Sending ❤️... Hello dear, if you don't mind asking you.Are you single?🥰
I'm a 72 year old male who's been on the LCHF lifestyle for 14 months. I've lost 55 pounds and improved blood conditions. Key to my success is my spouse of 49 years. Key supporter! Both of us are still very active.
It is wonderful to have someone to share life with. My husband and I have been married for 26 years :)
Well done Terry and Mrs B 👍😉
@@beckygillaspy , you look like you have a marriage based on love and mutual respect. Nice to see.
Terry Barnhart congratulations
What a wonderful inspiring video. I turned 65 last year and have several serious health issues. I now understand that my "mindset" is the number one obstacle to weight loss and improved health. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your subscribers success stories. Reading these gave me happy tears for them and is encouraging me to get myself out of this slump. 62 years old, overweight and tired. I'm jumping on the weight loss train! Thank you Dr.!
In June of 2018 I went to my Primary appointment and weighed 354.6 lbs at 5’10 feet tall. My cholesterol was high and pre diabetic with blood sugar at 118. I finally decided to do something. On UA-cam I happened to find the Obesity Code and Dr Jason Fung videos and that started to change my life. Also I am now 72 years old. I do OMAD and LCHF keeping my carbs around 20 daily. I now weigh 197 lbs. I don’t have constant hunger or cravings. I am able and do walk 3 miles a day.
Congratulations, Ralph!
Wow you did great!
What a hero!
At 66 I found the weight loss to be easy. Prior to discovering Intermittent Fasting and Low Carb I was eating way too much sugar and simple (starchy) Carbs, plus my insulin levels were very high all the time. I was always tired, my joints hurt, and I felt like my brain was in a fog all the time. Once I discovered Intermittent Fasting and Low Carb, I was so desperate I was willing to try anything. Within 4 days I felt an improvement and by 2 weeks there was no doubt in my mind that I was on the right path. The pain I felt from excessive sugar and carbohydrates (high insulin) was enough to make me hate even thinking about having them. Now 6 months later I'm almost 60 pounds lighter and within 18 pounds of my ideal weight. I've been doing Intermittent Fasting and Low Carb for so many months it just seems so natural. I'm not sure what I'll do once I reach my ideal weight, but I keep pushing as I move towards my dream.
Thanks for sharing your experience, Bob! I'm so happy that you've been able to make these changes and reap the rewards!
Congratulations Bob. When I read your comments they describe my sort journey so far. I had all of the symptoms that you had and at 63 was at 247 pounds. In just one month of Keto and intermittent fasting, I’ve shed 20 pounds. I don’t want those pounds back. I don’t know where I will end up weight-wise but I sure feel better!
I'm doing the same and I lost 10 kg fast, but now I'm stuck, not loosing anything, only water going up and down. I feel better though.
@Tall RVr Yes Check out Dr. Bergs videos on here,He also puts out a new video everyday and live Sand A every Friday!! He is Amazing!!!❤❤❤
How are you doing now? I hope well. Maintaining is a learned thing also. Navigating that for a few months now.
I am a 63 year old healthcare provider (Optometrist). I have lost 80 lbs (similar to your husband’s story). I no longer need my CPAP for sleep apnea, off the 2 meds I was using for hypertension and A1c down from 9.9 to 4.9 without medication. In fact I take no medication of any kind now.
I lost 50 lbs in the first 5 months and additional 30 over the next 3-4 months.
I did LCHF and intermittent fasting and still do.
My only regret is that I didn’t know to try this 15-20 years ago.
“2 Fit Docs” and your individual channel have both been a great source inspiration and support in my journey. Thank you!
Times that by a million!!!🤗❤️‼️
That is so wonderful to hear, Bill! Congratulations! Keith and I are thrilled to have been a part of your journey!
Wow. That’s an amazing drop 8n your A1c. Congrats
I am 63 and have had the same experience. Over the last 25 years I have had very little activity, WAY too much carb rich food and craft beer! I have undone 25 years of poor diet choices in 6 months with Keto and IF! All thanks to the principles taught by Becky and Keith. Better yet, I have learned how to manage my diet for a healthier last 3rd of my life! I too wish I would have known about this 20 years ago! Even better, several friends and family have reversed their issues based on my experience. How is this process still considered "underground" or at best, "alternative"?
I’m 67 years old and have been following your advice and videos for the past 3 weeks, I’ve been amazed to lose 8 lbs and eat comfortably with food that I’m enjoying more. Thanks so much.
Thank you for addressing over 60 weight loss! New sub here, at 65 weight watchers clicked for me, Iam down 42 lbs, it def
is a mind game, some days Iam more focused than others, but losing weight is more about food intake than exercise.
At the age of 65 I started watching Dr Becky and stopped eating refined sugar (and artificial sweeteners). After about 3 or 4 days I quit looking for all the sweets I was used to eating like cakes, pies, and cookies. I’ve always liked salads and vegetables and not been much of a pasta and bread fan but haven’t cut out carbs like fruits and beans. In 3 months I’ve lost 20 pounds without much effort (my Dr suggested 50 and I’ll get there). I can see me eating this way forever and being happy with it.
Great to hear, Deborah!
Age 73. Started a vodka diet 15 months ago and began reduced carbs - ~20-30g/day, skip breakfast. Went from bmi 27.9 to 24 (lost 23#); A1C now in normal range, all blood readings have improved. I severely limit my vodka intake to 10 drinks or less daily and never before 9am. No sugary mixes - just Zevia. Life is good. And by the way, Dr. Becky, you rock. You were instrumental in my change to low carb and you probably gave me an extra few years of life. Thank you.
I’m 52. Started keto in August and I’m down 46 pounds. I foresee this way of eating for the rest of my life. I have no cravings and am rarely actually hungry.
57 yr old Latina here. I started my healthy food choices July 10 2020, low carb, high fat. Hgb A1C 7.2 wgt 210. Jan 2021 wgt 180 with A1C 5.9 ! It can be done all! Was taking metformin twice daily, now once daily. If my A1C decreases to 5.7 my physician will eliminate all together! God is Good! Bless you all!
I watch your videos occasionally and have learnt alot along with my own research. Just recently I came across a video of losing weight over 60+ . I'm 65 years old. With the guidance of your wisdom through your videos for weight loss and diet changes, I have reached my goal. Last July/2019 I was 205lbs, I craved sugar treats enjoyed rice and pasta and bakery breads all my life. Finally I was not happy with the fat I was carrying, especially around my waist line and feeling sluggish. With the combination of the 16/8 fasting and eating between 12 to 8, low carb, and low sugar and healthy fats and diet changes and walking about 7 miles aday with ease I have reached and maintained my goal of 165 lbs and back to a 32 " waist within a year. I dont feel hungry when I'm fasting. I feel great, no sugar or carb cravings, Doctor was amazed with my cholesterol and triglyceride and A1C levels. He knows now what changed :). So people 60+ get on board and stick with it!! Thank You Dr. Becky. 😘
Dear Dr. Becky❤️I'm 70 and FINEALLY found the key to healthy weight loss AND feeling good and being healthy!!! I've lost 35 lbs. in the past 4 months, never felt better!!! Thank you for helping me improve my life on every level!!! With love and gratitude, Sue😘❤️🙋‼️🌸🌸🌺🌺🌻🌻❣

Thanks for your comment, Gutchie!
I'm a 72 retired male. In March 2021 I weighed 244 pounds, was borderline diabetic, I'd be out of breath walking up more than one flight of stairs, I had sugar cravings after 8pm, and had I stomach problems almost daily. After watching several videos on intermittent fasting by Dr Becky and Dr Jason Fung I decided to give it a go. I now eat 2 Keto meals a day at 2 and 6pm. As of Sept 1, 2021 I've lost 6" off my waist, my weight is now 188, I can walk up 5 flights of stairs without being out of breath, blood sugar normal, I no longer have sugar cravings and I have no stomach problems. It works and is now my lifestyle, no longer a diet.
I'm 77. went on keto at 209 pounds. at four months I'm 172. Take steps two at a time. Don't need to spread my legs to make room for my belly when I squat.
How are you doing now?
@@susanfanning9480 Thanks for asking. I'm at 165. Went down to 160, but have relaxed a bit during Covid and started paying more attention when I got up to this weight. I intend to take my time but head back toward 160.
One of the biggest challenges for me has been that my spouse can live on bread, candy, ice cream, pretzels, rice, noodles, potatoes, etc. and he's the same pants size he was 42 years ago when we married. His idea of exercise is walking to the mailbox & back. Not so for me. Finally, I set aside a separate pantry for my "keto safe" foods so I'm not tempted to backslide (as much!) and at mealtimes I've gone to a modified "buffet" set up. The things we can both eat are on the kitchen counter, my keto foods are on the breakfast bar, and we both just help ourselves from the appropriate area. Sounds complicated, but it's working for us.
It's funny my mom is the same as your spouse she will be 92 in 6 months she eats whatever she wants. She has never been over 120 pounds her entire life except when she was pregnant. Eats lots of sugar anything she wants. No diabetes ! Some people have all the luck !
@@douglaslett7504 They say after 80 it's all genetics. Your mom is blessed. However, as per above, just remember, if its working then it's not stupid. Wishing you guys success in your goals.
Great idea..thanks for sharing
TOFI (Thin on the outside, fat on the inside). My sister is the same, she can eat anything and never gets any bigger - however, these people as not as lucky as one first assumes. The damage is still there, it is gradually building up around their internal organs. Whilst they think they may be genetically just lucky, they are massively disadvantaged, because they cannot see the damage. As my sister has recently discovered with her latest bloods test and other things starting to go wrong. I used to be the fat one, she was always giving me dietary advice - So now we are both converts - and both doing far better than we have for years! Eating too many carbs just has the effect of making one want to eat more carbs (who could ever eat just one Oreo?). Replace the sugar and carbs with more fat in your diet and within a few days the cravings will start to vanish and you will not feel Hungary all of the time. It works.
Good idea, my husband is the same way as yours. I'm going to try what you have.
I’m 68 and have been struggling with weight loss for a long time . My doctor said I need to go on insulin and that woke me up .plus I’m having knee replacement surgery in early 2024. I started on OMAD which I quickly lost inches and felt lighter . I stopped sugar and felt my pain lessen . I have been losing 10 lbs a month which is exciting since on ADF and just feel better my thyroid meds have dropped to 100mg from 125 mg daily , cholesterol is normal .My blood glucose is still high at 8.6 but will be vigilant about sugar . Absolutely do not want to have insulin shots daily . I walk but knee slows me down . It’s been 5 years since my knee buckled under me . Feel better all around for the most part . Fasting really works .😊
I quit drinking I quit smoking now I have quit sugar. I should be perfect as soon as I lose 100 pounds.
So true I gave up smoking
Gave up drinking
Gave up drugs
Now I have give up sugar! And I got a 100 pounds to lose!
Me too 😆
You didn't say you quit snacking?
You won't be perfect, but you will be healthier, happier, & more aware of just how powerful you are. Wishing you success.

my wife is 67,has a knee replacement and is awaiting another plus waiting on rotator cuff operation.she cannot excersise yet has lost over 10 kilos by living the keto way.its been slow but steady
As a plus 70 yo woman who has has been overweight her entire life I have found that a LCHF diet works but I have changed up 2 things : I have increased the protein and increased my intermittent fasting - although not for everyone , my normal fasting is usually 42 to 48 hours, no side effects, feel good and have continued to lose weight. I am more aware of what & when I' m eating than before. Have lower my BP and all lipid tests are within normal range !!
I’m 61, back doing Keto/intermittent fasting -lost 22 lbs so far. Approx 20 lbs to go. No more sugar, no more bad carbs, no more bad carb cravings. Woohoo!! (Getting back to resistance training & HIIT on the recumbent bike) * I do not take any pharmaceutical medication.
Good info Dr Becky! Thank you & hello from Canada 🙋🏻♀️
Life is good without those refined carbs to pull us down! Congrats, Sandi!
Thank you for your continuing motivational videos. Being 62 I am even more aware how easy it is to fall into previous bad eating habits. Thank you for keeping me on track🤗🤗
I started eating low carb. 16/8 intermittent fasting. I am 6 ft. tall. July 10, 227 lbs, belly measurement 45 inches. July 18 I turned 65. This morning I weighed 196. Belly measurement 38.5 inches. This is working. Beating the sugar craving is the hardest. It doesn't seem like all or nothing. If I have a high carb meal, or eat out of my window, it doesn't seem like a disaster. I just return to my plan. I have made contact with a bunch of my Class of `72 classmates. I will share this video with them. Thank you for the video.
Wow! Congrats, ScottF1954! It's great to see the scale go down, but the health benefits that you are gaining are priceless! Thanks for the share. I appreciate it!
I’m in my mid 50’s and do wish I knew this all my life. This works and the fact that I don’t feel hungry or crave unhealthy food is liberating
I've been following you for more than a month. I took the plunge on Nov 8, 2020 and I'm just into my 4th day. Second day was very unpleasant but third was fine. I'm encouraged to continue and love what I learn from you.
I'm now at 13 days. I'm not a big person but concerned about belly fat. I've lost 9 lbs. Thank you, Dr Becky.

I am 66 1.75m and went from 80kg to 67kg in about six months. Two brisk walks 3.5kg every day plus swimming. And one meal a day but lime soda any time. One meal before 8pm after 1pm. Lean is good. Plus it means I can go have a lovely meal and wine once in a while. No snacks, candy or biscuits or cakes at all. Means my BMI is mid point too. Good luck everyone.
Would love to see a video on what you eat in a day Dr. Becky
Thank you for this video, I will be 62 in 4 months. I have been low carb, gluten free for almost a year and have dropped 50 pounds. The sugar was easier to drop than the bread, but I am feeling better and looking better. It is much harder as we get older.
harder, but doable :)
@@beckygillaspy yes it just takes making up your mind to eat healthy and make good choices. I yo-yo dieted for years and had pretty much given up till my daughter and I were diagnosed with PCOS- and learned what works and what doesn't. It's still slow, but is working. Live your videos they keep me motivated and on track.
Love "An avocado a day..."
Congrats to all the people behind the success stories!
You are the very embodiment that this lifestyle works. You look fantastic and so much younger and healthier looking than when you started on UA-cam. I might not be a woman or 60 but I know I look younger myself and feel better than I have in thirty years, same can be said for my wife. I'm 22/2 IF every day for over a year now and I keep my carbs around 50g per day and everything's better.
I turned 60 back in March and started Intermittent fasting on June 3rd and it works. I statrted at about 202 and at 188 in 3 months and still eat the things i enjoy occasionally like pizza , ice cream. I can tighten my diet up and will. It works! I also doing weight training and added more muscle. I can do the same weight and do cardio like i was in my 30's. The main thing no counting calories and the cravings are not as strong and I can maintain this life style!
hI, I'm a 64 years old man from Norway who loves your videoes. Today i'm 210 lbs heavy. 6,1 feet tall. Lost 110 lbs last year by eating Helthy KETO and intermitent Fasting (IF). (OMAD the last 8 months),
Gonna feed like this for rest of my days... well may be turn away from OMAD to 18:6 intervals whan I've reached my goal ,.. 25 more lbs to go.
Godd luck, Folks!
Years ago, I did the Adkins Protein Diet with carbs under 25. I lost from 181 to 134, before the wheels came off. I was an early 40's 5'8" male. At that time, the trouble became that I got addicted to Adkins and losing weight. I literally couldn't stop. In high school, I wrestled at 136 and remember struggling mightily to make that weight. I was a normally fit athlete at 142 pounds. Then, in my 40's, I loved it when women told me, "You have the body of a teenager..."
Now Keto is easy for me at 68, but I hope the old addiction doesn't come back. I weigh 149 at the moment...

I have been KLCHF and ADF for most of last nine years. Will be 64 in August, and have lost 136 lbs so far. 35 or so to go yet.
Wow! Wonderful!
Hi Janice, how did you lose the weight? You are absolutely amazing!
What does KLCHF and ADF mean?
@@suzan1malKLCHF= keto, low carb, high fat. ADF =Alternate day fasting
@@suzan1mal I know why do people have to throw around the stupid acronyms if they want to help people then they should say what it is. I believe people that throw around these acronyms and brag about how much weight they’ve lost or more about stroking their own Egos then they are about helping people
I've only just found Dr Becky on UA-cam and she is the perfect mentor for healthy eating. Your calm and common sense approach to weight loss and healthy eating instils confidence in me. I have always been in a healthy weight range, I am 60 years old, 160cm tall and currently weigh 60Kg. (Too many sixes in there!) My problem is that I can no longer fit into most of my jeans and pants which is demoralizing. Most of my weight gain has been over the past two years. So, I am going to try reducing carbs and see what happens. I have never been addicted to sugar but have enjoyed the occasional sweet biscuit or piece of cake. I also enjoy a glass of wine with cheese and crackers a few times per week, I think that might have to change. I love watching your videos, I always gets something new out of them. Thanks Becky.
I am 63 and was addicted to sugar. A pint of ice cream a day. Or a large bag of M&Ms. I gave up sugar in May and have not looked back. I no longer crave it and have lost weight. I plan on keeping sugar out of my diet.
Life is wonderful without sugar :). I'm so happy to hear that you were able to break free!
Good on you... I agree with you I'm 57 and being either been a runner on my life I haven't had a problem with weight but giving up sugar has been great for my body and encourage you to keep at it find some exercise that you find fun and enjoy your life.
Barb Robbins ~ yay🙌🏽
Omg..wish I could give up sugar..I'm going to be 61 in October..any suggestions on how I can substitute some thing for sugar till I can stop....I've been struggling to quit eating sugar..I'm 5'5' and 160..so I'm not terribly over weight..but I need help before I get really bad..HELP!! LOL..I have a back injury so my exercise is also limited 😥
@@michelehice8338 I'm 65 and I started June 1, 2020. I went cold turkey on sugar and foods that contain sugar. I could not "tone" it down. Chocolate calls out to me. So, cold turkey was the only way I could handle it. The first few days were rough. About the 5th day in, I realized it wasn't bad at all. I could walk right by the cookies and candy at the store and not be tempted. I also have other health problems. High blood pressure, low thyroid, sleep apnea, Lots to loose. I'm down 27 pounds, have 75 to go. 1/4 of the way there! I'm the turtle. Next week I'm going to try some gentle exercises. Intermittent fasting helps. My husband and I have our first meal at noon and our last meal at 6pm. Can you do gentle walking?
According to your instruct, I have a loss weight loss 79to 61 I am very happy now.thank you very much Dr.becky😍😍😍😍
Thanks Dr. Becky. I'm turning 67 next month and have been low carbing for just less than a year. All the clothes I've been used to wearing are falling and slipping off now, I actually like the way I look, and feel good about it. I used to weigh 270lbs and have lost fifty so far. I can actually see myself in the not too distant future getting back into my old size 38" jeans. Yes, avoiding sugar actually becomes a pleasure. Maybe I'll get off the Onglyza and Metformen soon....? Hope so.
Love it, Gary! Congratulations!
This video is refreshing since you focus on 60+. Thank you for breaking down the process for me. You make perfect sense. Now then...working on this belly fat! It is discouraging. But I'm workung on it! Thank you again!
Yellow dye alllergies.
I was a full blown carb addict. I was also vegan and became morbidly obese and pre diabetic. 5 years ago my dr told me about keto. I had to do a lot of research about eating higher fat before starting, being an RN with nearly 40 yrs of experience teaching patients about a low fat diet. After doing my research I decided to try it. I was 59 at the time. I had also struggled with my weight most of my adult life. I had been on nearly every diet imaginable and could never lose. Fast forward 5 years … I have lost 85 lbs. I have maintained this loss and am very healthy. I feel better then I did decades ago. I have totally lost my desire for sugar and my sugar tolerance is very low. I rarely get hungry and do TRE most every day. This way of eating does, indeed, work.
I'm overweight lost 226 with surgery, failed. Got 2 large hernias from loose belly skin, survived cancer to fall 2 days after last treatment and nearly was paralyzed. My daughter is now going shopping for the good things. Wish me luck. We are starting a slow walking regiment to build up to walking better
Gentle wishes on your journey
Good luck, you can do it.
Dr. Becky. I Started using your advice and I have been successful for 2 weeks. This is the first time in many years that i lasted longer than a few days on a diet or even IF by itself. Now, I am doing low carb with intermittent fasting as you suggested. I am 82 and going a little more gradually than someone younger might. I am at 13 hours IF along with about 80 carbs a day. Chocolate candy was my downfall along with cookies and other sweets. I have not had any candy for the two weeks, therefore, no sugar. I am using your saying: DON'T STOP BEFORE THE MAGIC HAPPENS. I don't always feel real well but I know it will take time to adjust to low carb eating. I am enjoying the salads. I am eating 2 smaller ones rather than the large 4 cups. I am watching the salad dressings I use. I found a wonderful Caesar dressing with avocado oil by Paul Newman. Eating low carb I am having a lot more vegetables than I ever had before. I have at least 50 lbs to lose but I am hoping to feel better by summer having lose some of it. Dr. Becky, I have your first book and it has a wealth of information in it. Thanks for everything.

I am 64 years old. The first 35 years of my life I was thin and active. I could not add any bulk despite lots of effort. Over the last 25 years ago I have gained about 140 pounds. (Be careful what you wish for.) This happened gradually through eating too much too often, a sedentary life style and drinking lots of local craft beer. Looking at my daughter's wedding pictures I realized I resembled a beach ball with a shirt on! That day I resolved to quit drinking beer for a while. Someone I know had lost a great deal of weight using the keto diet. That night, out of curiosity, I googled Keto Diet. I spent the rest of the night watching UA-cam videos and decided I could do it. I observed a very strict keto diet and after 6 or 7 weeks I began to play with intermittent fasting. The fasting became easy and part of my weekly routine. By December I had lost 100 pounds and felt amazing. It was so much easier than it sounds! My doctor was familiar with keto and impressed by the incredible change in my blood work. (A1C from 6.7 in 2016 to 5.1 in October 2019) I have relaxed a little since December but have maintained the weight loss. I still observe a 16-8 eating strategy and do 24 - 36 hour fasts regularly. I avoid all carbs except vegetables. Every time I long for a beer, a pizza or popcorn, I just bend over and tie my shoes or pet my dog. One cool collateral effect has been the number of people in my life that have taken up this life style and achieved similar results.
Wow Alan, I am going to try this, thanks for your story x
Love your input and assistance. I started May 2021 at 336 pounds. Now, Oct 2022 I weigh 184 pounds. I exercise on an exercise bike daily. High protein, medium fat and very low carb has worked for me. As well as 12/12 IF
Congrats, Susan!
I got a new bike for my birthday, best and easiest exercise ever, I never dread my evening rides! How long do you ride and do u alternate or change ur levels of tension during ur sessions? I’m 61, slowly shedding pounds, going to try adding some things I’m reading in the comments here. Oh, and roughly how many carbs are u eating daily? Thanks!
Since I was in high school, I realized sugar and refined carbs were bad. Before I even knew what the Atkins diet was, I realized that's what I was doing. Now in the past 3 months I have been studying the ketogenic eating plan. I'm 67yo Male, I'm very active hiking, cycling and backpacking. I just completed the JMT, 222 miles in 14 days. I wanted the most nutritious food, in the smallest size and lightest weight. So, eating can be trained! Also for the past two years, I journal everything I eat, my body works good at 2400 calories aday, and once a week I check my weight and blood pressure. No weight and very health BP, without meds. The the mind is were it started for me. Train the mind and the body will follow.
Thanks for the video.
John Eason ....the mind, so true!
I'm 66 and decided to go Keto. I lost 50 pounds in three months. I joined a gym and worked out at least 4 days a week.
It is much easier to give up sugar/carbs than fats.
Dr. Becky has a soothing voice.
I have bad eating habits. I am going to try to change.
Good luck
I'm 65 and have been thin all my life, I weigh 130 and 5' 6 " .I'm very Active and I work hard at everything I do. I keep busy and eat Healthy, I never smoked or drank alcohol.
I love to dance too! But that's just me! I love people at any size, I don't judge. 😊❤️
I’m a 64 former diabetic and was at 192. Went whole food, minimal whole grains, cut carbs and all processed foods, cardio half hour and half hour of weight training 5 times a week. No keto, no intermittent fasting. 6 months later in at 158 and look and feel completely different.
I really like your practical advice, which can be applied even to those of us following Weight Watchers. I eat 1/4 of an avocado per day most days. And listening to your discussion on sugar is enough to make me afraid of it.
A bit more that a year ago I weighed 275 pounds, had zero energy, my joints hurt, and I was tired all the time. I just assumed that because I was 66 years old, the pain and tiredness was part of growing old. Then I discovered Intermittent Fasting and the Low Carb/High Fat diet. A year later I've lost over 70 pounds, my joints no longer hurt, I'm not tired all the time, and I have my energy back. In the early days of my chance, exercise seemed impossible, but as I lost the weight and got better, exercise became a whole lot easier.
And how are you doing now? Im 64. It sounds encouraging.
Susan Fanning I'm doing very well, I hit the target weight last month, BMI < 25. I still do Intermittent Fasting and avoid sugar as much as possible. It's very common for me to do 5+ mile walks three times a week.
New subscriber soon to be 60. I thank God I have found your channel. I am studying some books and applying things as I learn them. I have 35 pounds to lose and I am thinking low carb with intermittent fasting will be my plan. Then if I have a few stubborn pounds kick it up with longer fast or keto till the rest comes off. Health is my # 1 concern I do not want to go down the same road as some family members with handfuls of medication and excepting my new fat clothes. Thank you for being such a pleasure to listen to and great teacher. God Bless
THANK YOU ...DR. BECKY❤❤for your straight forward info. For facts...basic..how to....and the simplicity of it all..health info...AND CHANGES I NOW FEEL I CAN MAKE...Thank you again❤❤❤
You are a gift to this world struggling with health
Thank you, Jonathan :)
I lost 60 lbs - to 170 - at age 65. Took a year. The key for me was ratcheting down my food intake while trying to make sure I was getting good nutrition. Now, to maintain this weight, I eat fruits and vegetables mainly, followed by dairy, nuts, and meat. One day's menu is typically a piece of fruit and a glass of milk for lunch, salad for dinner, and yogurt for dessert. Doesn't sound very exciting, but I've learned that when you don't eat much EVERYTHING tastes good!
You are so articulate and caring. ...thank you for your knowledge.
I've done all of this - healthy fats, eliminate refined carbs and sugar, intermittent fasting - but the bottom line is I have to plan my meals and keep track of what I eat.
Me too.
Dr becky I'm Sixty four now and have lost 28kbs in six months via cutting out 90 percent of what I used to eat.... No bread no crisps or cakes or biscuits or processed meats and meals... I haven't found it to be as hard as I thought to be honest, I do have apples twice or three times a week and add to porridge in the morning too.. But have cut down on dried fruits a bit as they are full Of sugar too.. I was a comfort eater all my life but do feel better now and thanks paula in the uk
Thanks for the video. I am 61 and overweight, but I have Fibromyalgia/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome so find it more and more difficult to exercise. From the prescription drugs from my Doctor over the years, I now have NAFLD too. I do Intermittent Fasting 15 or 16 hours a day and drink lemon in warm water on an empty stomach upon waking. Any advice would be great. Thank you.
I quit eating sugar and and within days was pain free. For decades I suffered from constant pain in both knees and my neck and back after an accident. I feel like I experienced a miracle!
I'm 63 I weighed
208 lbs now I'm at 172 , I've been on Keto for 6 mths after a rough start I am now at the point where I do it automatically along with intermittent fasting I never feel hungry I will keep doing keto as I get to eat lots of great meals and don't crave carbs at all .
As someone who is only a few months away from 60, but who has recently discovered your 'high fat - low carb' eating regime, I have hope that, when I do reach 60, my weight and general health will be better and I will be able to enjoy life well beyond 60! Thanks for helping both myself and my wife - we will keep up with watching your videos as they are always so helpful and give us so much information!
I'm 65 IF for 18 hours a day and OMAD (one meal a day) Giving up sugar is very hard, so what I do when the carving starts, I get a container of Strawberry Cream Cheese. Works everytime👍 I've tried making the Keto cookies, but they just don't cook right. The cream cheese works the best for me, I've lost 28 pounds in 4 months, still have s lot of weight to go. KETO FOR LIFE🙏
IF and a low carb diet (recently also wheat-less) enabled me to shed 25 lbs over the last half year. I now am 65, weighing 160 lbs, not using any meds and feeling great. It is true, you can get used fast to no sugar, no snacks, no bread/cakes/cookies/carbs in general. Switch to lots of vegetables, (moderate) fruits, meat, fish, eggs, poultry, butter and olive oil. And be healthy.
At 59 I weighed 210 at 5'4", I started keto and two years later I weigh 140. Keto/carnivore works. it's amazing, I'm rarely hungry and I feel better than I have in 20 years.
Thank you for this. I've succeeded to bring my weight down with fat intake increase and sugar/carb reduction. What I need to do is be more consistent with these, plus add the 16/8-hr. "intermittent fast" eating schedule. I know from occasionally bypassing late-night snacking that it does help. Thanks for presenting this wonderfully NOT-complicated advice.
@Nicholas Boyko Holding steady, thanks. You?
I think mindset is difficult for people of ALL ages! And it's amazing how much of your life can change when your mind changes.
a year ago I changed my diet to mainly fresh veggies and fruits. First drink of the day is Lemon water, followed by 16 oz celery juice, and 16oz metal detox smoothie. I drink Lemon water all day. Have a healthy lunch and dinner and 2 healthy snacks. I no longer have high b/p and high cholesterol. i have lost 43 pounds. I low impact exercise 3 days a week. I have cut out coffee, wine, dairy, eggs, grains, and meat except on a special occasion. I feel better, move better, sleep better, my skin is so much smoother and softer. Same with my hair. I am 71 and I feel better than when I was 60. I still have another 40 lbs I want to lose.
Awesome.
I've just turned 57 years old was in a car accident in 1987. I walk with a cane on my good days and when you can't exercise because of serious injuries you gain weight. I'm diabetic and with keto I've been able to go off of all diabetes medication and have lost 111 lbs. I'm still losing and getting better. So, even if you can't exercise you can eat right and intermittent fast and lose weight and more importantly get a lot of your health back. Keto for life and don't let big pharma or anybody else try to talk you out of regaining your health. The choice is yours and the small amount of work is yours. If I have a sandwich out I eat all but the bread. Bread was my nemesis now I hardly give it a second look. Besides, nothing tastes as good as thin feels.
Congrats on your achievements, Jennifer!
I went to a local Great Burger joint yesterday, had my cheese burger in a bowl...no bun :-)
Thank you thank you for addressing this to those of usthat are over 60! Seems everyone forgets about us on weight loss journeys..
You're not forgotten, Zita :). Thanks for your comment!
My metabolism went downhill once I started menopause at 42. I’m 57 and gave up sugar and carbs two months ago. I’ve lost 15 lbs. I have to work very hard at losing every single lb. But I feel so great and full of energy. My digestion issues have mostly gone away. I feel liberated from eating processed foods.
I was a carb addict for sure, and actually mourned having to give up sugar and many carbs when diagnosed with T2. But yes, I did it, and I no longer am tempted by sugar. It's good to know others this age group are having the same problem with losing weight. I have just decided I need to stay within my carb and calorie counts and not get on the scale. Weighing can be the fastest way for me to get discouraged and give it all up. I just figure I do this way of eating, it's my life, it's for my blood sugar, if I lose weight in the process, great. I'm not going to stress over my weight, and at least I'm not gaining. And... I am actually enjoying good foods that I eat low carb/keto, so it's okay.
Sending ❤... Hello dear, if you don't mind asking you.Are you single?
Retired last year due to a disability which greatly affects my ability to walk. I was afraid that I would not be able to lose weight with so little activity. But I started cutting my carbs way down and eating only twice a day. To my surprise I am losing weight. Down 20 pounds in about 5 weeks. I am determined to keep this new habit going and hopefully lose 20-30 more pounds.
Congrats, Richard!
Couldn't have done it without you, Dr. Becky. Thank you! I'm one of your success stories : )
Wonderful to hear, Renee!
Well done Renee 👌
I'm 59 weighed 318 lbs 4 months ago cut carbs and sugar and 2 meals a day 279 now and on my way...feel better and less pain
I had given up all wheat products except bread. I thought I would be able to control my consumption of bread to one slice a day. I was wrong. But once I made the commitment to give up bread, the rest fell into place, hunger and cravings were gone. I haven't lost weight yet, but my joint pain is dramatically lessened. And the severe edema in my feet and ankles is improving. I've only been fully committed to Keto for a week.
Wow she's 52 looks like she's 22 what ever advice she talks about works with food diets and intermediate fasting great info Dr becky thanks
I'll take that comment any day :). Thanks!
Yeah, I know and agree!
I refuse to let my self go! Lol! I use mindfulness to keep myself in shape..I turned 66 and never felt better in my life!
When u say mindfulness, what do u mean?
Thankyou. I really like you. Most people who make these videos are just out to sell something and no more. Thank you for the advice.
You have such a calming voice and demeanor!
I've never been asked to stop eating before midnight for any surgery, or other medical procedure that requires a fasting state. Since I find it easy to get to sleep before 12 - it's never been an issue. So - my attempt at 16:8 with food from 1pm - 9pm is, so far, the best i/'ve been able to do and not wake in the night.
Hi, I'm 58 and have started this journey a few weeks ago. I do not miss sugar, fruit and a whole slew of other foods that were just making loosing weight impossible. I have a thyroid problem and I hope this diet will help this situation of mine. I did start this diet to get rid of the weight so my back will feel better and be stronger. I had back surgery 15 years ago and a lot of muscles don't work anymore. They just cramp up and cause a lot of pain. So far, I have lost eight pounds in four weeks and I don't take any meds except my thyroid meds. I feel younger and stronger. (Maybe the gray hair will go too! HA!!!)
Sara Truman. I too have a thyroid problem & had back surgery just over 20 years ago. Just wondering if there were any improvements in your thyroid? I've been doing the diet for 11 weeks, quite strict @ 20g carbs or under. But still an insomniac with thyroid issues. Not giving up, but get disheartened when I read comments about how rejuvenated folk feel. Pleased for them of course, but wee bit disappointed for myself. Had to mute the talking scales or I'd be in therapy & scales in recycling bin. Wish you well. Take care & stay safe.
I also have thyroid problems. I lost 35 pounds in 2016 on keto/IF while living in a different state. The insomnia was in full force then but the keto made it somewhat better. I've been eating quasi-keto for around 6 months and committed keto for 3 weeks now. The morning wakefulness is worse than ever. Weight loss has been so slow, pain relief and energy improvement that I got in 2016 have not yet returned. ☹️. I've begun thinking it's the water. (I do drink tap water. Old city=soft water, current town=hard water.) Ugh! Keep hoping my body will straighten itself out! Good luck to you.
I love all your videos but this really moved me as a 63 year old. Thank you
Thanks for all the great encouragement! Your videos are always so information-packed and helpful!
