      Hello Doctor Mike .
      Can we know also how to have a balance diet or how to diet for the female having a PCOS and what I'm gonna do to lose weight? I exercise and work out every day but I think there is something wrong with it ,cause still I didn't lose weight..

    So glad men are starting to educate themselves on our cycles. We cannot function at a high level everyday. We are creators, the portals to which souls come from other dimensions into this physical realm. That comes with so many intricacies. Our bodies are doing something different every day of every 28 day cycle.

Basically Day 1 (1st day of period) - day 10 = good for any exercises, stress resistance high, Day 11-15 = rock it, run a marathon, lift 10 elephants, begin new projects, do the hard talks, stress resistance is the highest, inspiration peaks, Day 16-19 = like day 1-10, Day 20- end of cycle = chill out, self care, go for walks, stress resistance the lowest, more Magnesium needed, skip the strenuous work outs!

      Gaining muscle is easy. Yes, I said that!
      However, it takes a long time. More time than many people are willing to devote to actually see results.
      Lift heavy weights, eat at least 0.8g of protein per pound of body weight. Don't be in a caloric deficit. Be at least in maintenance calories. Bulk calories is fine, but it can be mismanaged and lead to unwanted weight gain over just muscle.
      Do this forever. You'll start to see results in 6 months (especially if you are new lifting weights), but it can take years to really build muscle.

I turned 36 this year, and it wasn't until after I had a miscarriage at 30 (Rest in peace, Eli) that I finally started getting a period every month to 1 1/2 months, but it's never set on when it shows up. I've never been able to accurately track my cycle - and the constant chronic pain from the PCOS doesn't help. I've been fighting to get my weight to a normal level all this time (low sodium, high protien, low carb since age 15) It's a very, very slow process, so I appreciate you taking the time to remind us that every body is different.

    I am 56 years old, 5ft 5in tall and weigh 122lbs. I weigh what I weighed at 34 when I had my child. I do intermittent fasting every day in the morning and eat my first healthy meal at 1pm and my last meal at 7pm. In between eating times, I drink lots of lemon, cucumber water with a pinch of himalaya salt. I do drink a cup of black coffee with half tsp coconut oil and half tsp extra virgin olive oil in the morning. I tried HRT, it did not do well for me, so I replaced it with healthy fats, adding more plants based foods to my diet, doing some daily walking and stretching. I also removed all Gluten from my diet. I immediately saw a difference in my skin, my sleep and I had no brain fog. It is important to eat adequate amount of protein as well to help build, keep or maintain muscle mass. Additionally, I supplement with 2000iu of vitamin D daily all year. I look and feel better than I have ever felt. People think I an in my 30's. It's also important to practice mindfulness and gratitude. All these things combined will bring the best results! ❤❤❤

      I’m 68 5’3” went from 187 to 115. Started eating one meal a day 3-4pm. Mostly steak, ground beef and salmon along with spinach or asparagus and at least 1/2 an avocado. I don’t snack or eat sugar at all. I make a drink each night which I drink throughout the day and finish it prior to bedtime. I take 64 oz of water and add a green tea bag a 1/2 lemon or lime squeeze the juice into the water and peel and cut up the rest which I add to the water with 1/2 a ginger root diced and 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. I drink this starting from the time I wake up. I also have a cup of black coffee every other morning. I haven’t eaten out in a restaurant since I started this journey. Before I get out of the bed I do a 10 minute JUST FIT workout while laying in my bed. After I drink my first cup of my water mixture I take a 1 hour walk. And another walk after my meal. I also go to the gym every other day. Take a swim class or I do a little light weight workout class. Sometimes I use a 10lb weight and hold it at my chest and do 25 squats but I didn’t start with a 10lb weight I started with a 2lb weight. I have no noticeable loose skin and I feel great. Also I started off by eating twice a day noon and then at 4pm but realized I was no longer hungry at noon and was only eating because I thought I needed to. I met this 75 year old couple that both look like there in there 40s and they told me they only ate once a day at 10am. They got up every morning and workout on bars then took a walk and went swimming 7 days a week. They said they ate what ever they wanted but didn’t consume sugar. Since they live in Ecuador where I am now you can do that because they do not add additives to there foods and sweets other than breads are hard to find here. I do enjoy berries once in a while and they produce some of the best blueberries and strawberries here. Good luck on journey because I know you can do it. Also my Dr has taken me off all meds. My blood pressure and cholesterol are normal and my visceral fat is 5% BMI 18.

      my mom's 74....she just stopped eating so much... Never mind the food what exercise do you do? Women at that age are allowed to have 24 to 35% body fat. What has your doctor said? what is your waist size and your waist-to-hip ratio?...these are more indicators of how healthy you are instead of whether your stomach is flat or not.

    I used to be able to lose 5 pounds in about 3 days of just eating less and dancing a bit more. I never even owned a scale, just noticed changes in how my clothes fit. I had some jeans I could only wear if I 'slimmed down' a few days first. Easy. Now, post-menopause, I've been trying to lose a mere 5 pounds for over a year and instead have gone up by 4 pounds!

Everything you said was spot on how we compare our weightloss to men and give up when the scale doesn't respond. Thank you! I am 52 years old, perimenopausal and have an appointment on Monday with my OBGYN. Night sweats, belly fat, trying so many diets over the years has caught up with me. I'm reminded by your video that it's a long game not short. Since January I've been a carnivore with no sugar and less than 10 carbs daily. God bless you!! -Val in Virginia 🎉❤💪

    Great video! The tortoise wins the race. I never heard some of these pointers before, much appreciated.
    I "loosely" started weight watchers in January, cut out soda (I still have my sweet coffees) increased water and walk more everyday. I've lost 6 pounds and even though that doesn't sound like much in 4 months, it's quite encouraging at 42 years old when working out alone wasn't doing anything. I know realize from your video that I was previously probably doing too much cardio and the slower but steady walking actually works better for me. ❤❤

I identified with about 3-4 things I have been experiencing/nor taking into consideration with my weight loss journey despite loosing 13 lbs in 2 1/2 months so far… because about 3lbs of that weight loss was muscle loss. Please do more videos like this! I enjoyed every minute and learned a TON. More than I have in the fitness community in YEARS!

    Hello Dr. Mike! I wanted to let you know how valuable this video is for us women. I subscribed to your channel after watching a couple of your fat loss videos. Initially, I had trouble finding content specifically targeted towards women and wondered if I was the right audience for your channel. Then I found this gem! 💎
    This video is incredibly informative and has taught me a lot about how my body responds to workouts during my menstrual cycle. I have PMDD, which makes it even harder for me in the two weeks leading up to my period, as well as during the period itself.
    I've booked a consultation call with you and am looking forward to working with you on my fitness journey. Thank you so much, Dr. Mike. Keep up the great content!

    Thank you for sharing this information. I am 48 yrs old and in February of this year was the first time I ever started going to a gym. Sure I have done years of cardio and hitt exercising but I have never lifted weights as much as I am now. I wanted to feel better in my body and wanted to also contribute time to regaining muscle mass not to mention I lift heavy items at work and wanted to aid more ease in those tasks. I have been going through perimenopause and have been noticing my mid section is the most stubborn when it comes to shrinking. I do more resistance training then cardio, honestly probably not enough cardio, and I have been increasing my protein intake and eating cleaner. I have to say it is still so disappointing, but I still continue to show up for myself at the gym. Also it is an added bonus that is a family affair, my 14 yr old daughter and my husband go as well and we go together almost every day. My daughter is obese but she is losing weight and getting healthier and I know we are instilling good habits for her now to take with her for the rest of her life. Thank you again for your great video. And yes I would love to know more!

I am surrounded by men who make heavy handed comments about how I can loose weight and what I need to do to look after myself. Most men are not qualified to comment about this, and most of the time it is very discouraging and can make you want to give up more than any of the other hurdles of weight loss. Please continue to educate both men and women on how our bodies work, and how we can develop our physical and mental health.
