Do you snack out of habit or hunger? Let me know by replying to this comment... just type HABIT or HUNGER!
Definitely habit for me! Cream in the 10 coffees I have a day is for sure a culprit for me too... whoops!
Coffee is my weakness too! Although, I learned to drink it black when I was a junior doctor as there was rarely ever any milk fridge in the doctors mess!
Habit definitely!
Habit/boredom
I’m really frustrated as my husband and I eat the exact same food. He also sneaks a beer now and then. Bottom line, he has lost about 20 lbs. and I haven’t lost any. We don’t snack, at least I don’t. I usually eat twice a day. I don’t have a ketone meter, yet, but looking at your videos I would say I’m in ketosis. Also, when we started this diet, I was sick for several weeks with dizziness and leg cramps. I finally supplemented with electrolytes and that passed. I guess the next step is seeing a doctor.
Play at speed of 1.5
Thank you.
You are the hero we always needed
@@CasshernSinz1613 lol....thanks
same. And english isn't my mothertongue.
Yan Paq 🤣
Omg. You’re the first person I’ve found to advocate for the keto diet who also stated not to over consume fats/calories. Finally, i found someone steering people in the right direction. You’ve earned a new sub good sir.
Not true, look up Dr Eric Westman.
Dr. Eric Berg as well he has many videos on keto
Or Diet Doctor!
Same.
Dr.sten ekberg
3:10 You're consuming too much (dietary) fat - easy to overdo these:
3:50 Nuts - eg handful of Walnuts 700 calories
4:50 Cream - eg in coffee, 4 times a day
5:10 Cheese
5:25 Butter coffee
6:00 Butter, Mayo, Olive Oil - in other foods or just too much
6:40 Snacking - still hungry?
7:00 Make sure meals are sufficient
7:40 Ketones, how many is too many?
9:00 Keep a food diary
9:30 Calorie Counting, with an App
10:30 Stress - try yoga
11:45 Sleep - 8 hours a night
13:05 Hypothyroidism - see doctor for test
Thanks 👍🏾
Thanks
You are a star!
actually 1oz walnuts is 200kcal not 700!
other keto videos seem to encourage unnecessary fat intake, thanks for this valuable and eminently sensible video Dr Dan
I've recently gotten into nutrition and exercise and living a healthy life style. And I jumped into the deep end and don't regret a thing. Turning 32 soon and I feel like a young stud. Thx to you and all the other free info I've learned off utube I've lost 40 pounds in 2 1/2 months. Got a mishmash of keto, intermittent fasting and water fasting. Not only health life changing but mentally life changing. I love what im becoming and won't stop. Good luck to anybody reading this. It's not easy but ur gonna love the positive changes of living a clean, healthy life.
Finally just broke through! Four long weeks of only eating one meal a day and one snack ( I'm an intermediate faster. It's the ONLY way I can do keto )In four weeks I lost five pounds at 20 carbs a day. I was absolutely in ketosis. So sick. I am also 53 years old and only need to lose 30 not hundreds. Got my T4 tests all blood work nothing medically stopping me. I got so sick eating high fats, and my micros were on point. I almost stopped. I had insomnia. It was horrible. Week five going into week six tomorrow, I am at 11 pounds off FINALLY, and a full almost 2 sizes. I therefore believe I was losing inches at that time and it took a minute for the scale to move. Thank God I am at optimal burning. I've FINALLY fat adapted. Knowing my body and doing ketosis before, I feel and know my own body. Moral of the story DON'T STOP! KEEP GOING! you'll break through. Strive for a better new year. Good luck
Thanks I needed your comment. Will just keep going...
I havent lost a lb since Thxgvg. Its almost Valentines. I never snack. Daily, I IF, small eating window.
@@YeshuaKingMessiah you should go get a T4 from your doctor. The blood work is mandatory as far as I'm concerned. I got one. Here is the thing if your hormones are off ...not much you can do to lose weight. Cortisone also is affected by ketosis. So you're double doomed if you have hormone issues. I know women more than men who couldn't drop past 5 pounds they needed to be treated for the hormone being off balance FIRST.
This is a little later but I also started magnesium, vitamin D, B 12 and zinc. I feel like a new person after one week of dosing yeah if you've been at it for that long and you're following the plan, something is very wrong. I'm to this day only at 13 pounds little more than a pound a week, but i refuse to stop. Too much invested. I'm dropping in inches more. Get that blood work or you're fighting a losing battle
MG actually its my rT3 is too high. I take T3 and just convert it to rT3 to get rid of it (rT3 is the version to excrete T3 when the body has too much T3). I also have adrenal fatigue due to very high stress in life, that cant be helped. Its not a matter of simply quitting a job or something simple lol
Lost almost 60# but Im only maintaining now, SUCKS.
Vits rly dont make you lose weight. I do take all those tho, except zinc I take when ill only.
Almost 2 years later, this is still a great video, I am very happy I found your videos Dr. Maggs, you are helping my Keto journey in ways that have changed how and what I do and consume.
Dr. Dan, this video helped me tremendously. I realize now that my snacking was the culprit. Even though I was eating Keto stuff I was consuming more than I needed. Thanks a million!
Snacking out of habit had been a really big issue for me lately! I’m 5 months into the keto WOE and down 70lbs 🙌🏼! I’ve gotten to the point now where I’m almost never hungry and when I am, the hunger feeling is easily manageable. My difficulty is managing the compulsion to eat. I’m getting better, I have to actively train my brain to know that I will be just fine if I don’t eat! What a journey!
Amelia 70lbs? Wow.....
Great job! I am a weight loss coach and most of the people need help for this, so u habe done an amazing work so far.
Keep going!
Habit for sure! Called emotional eating. This is why I decided to do intermitting fasting and it is working. I also learned some new tips from you today. I keep a journal to record my triggers.
You make a lot of sense I am glad I ran across your channel today. Looking forward to future videos, thanks.
This is why I still count calories! A lot of people say you don’t have to but I could easily overeat if I didn’t!
Ahhhhhh...cheese is my issue!! I lost 24lbs in 1st month and been on a dead stop the last 2 weeks but now I know what is it!!! CHEESE!!! Chaffels, taco shells, sliced cheese, cheese sticks! Oh boy!! Thanks.
Your video confirmed what I had already concluded. Thanks! But key to any lifestyle is to be able to stick to it so for now I’m satisfied with watching my bodyfat decrease and muscle mass increase without loosing any more weight. I’ve lost about 10kg (22 pounds) in the frist few months, could stand to loose another 5 or so but I’m not going to obsess over it.
I am definitely on a stall with my weight loss. You have certainly given me some tangible things to try to up my keto game. I snack out of habit or boredom. Thank you for sharing this informative video.
So,my brother in law decided to try this diet and since we live in the same house and I am the cook and I always try to encourage healthy living,I am also the one who studies up on it!
Your videos are definitely the best and most informative in all this!
HABIT. When I started intermittent fasting, the biggest crimp was bedtime snack with hubby. We missed the little ritual of it. He decided to to also quit the bedtime snack too, which solved the issue, and we found a new routine ;)
This was exactly what I needed to hear! So glad I watched. I have been in Ketosis for 3 weeks and only lost 1lbs. Last time I tried I only lost 5 lbs in 8 weeks. And I have up. But now I'm not giving up. This video gave me a little hope. I'm going to eliminate high fat and add in more exercise.
Get a blood ketone tester, it really helped me learn what I should, and shouldn't eat. Drink lots of water way more than you think you need. Take electrolytes(without sugar), more exercise, intermittent fasting helps. I eat two meals, late morning and a late lunch. I try to only eat when the sun is out. If its dark no food, and it really helps.
I had to quit snacking and count calories and macros to jumpstart my weight loss. Two meals a day, intermittent fasting and lots of water and moving more. Very happy with progress.
Thanks for the life raft! I was about to give up on Keto, but you’ve given me clear, urgently needed info in layman’s terms. I’ll try it your way.
same for me. i have been 3 weeks on keto and not lost one pound. i see i definitely need to lower my fat intake.
I don’t generally snack at all. No hunger on keto. I do also journal my food. I also watch fats and rely on burning my fat not fat eaten fat, keeping it lower reaching my goal. Great advice! Thanks for sharing!
Such a clear explanation! Glad to see you post another excellent video.
Thanks! Great to be back. Lots more videos in the pipeline! :)
Thank for your tips!!! Going to share this 👍🏼
This is a very welcome video! I'd read a book on keto/low-carb several years ago in which the author insisted that calories do not matter at all. So I started eating that way, got into ketosis, and gained weight. In an online forum, people tried cornering the author of the book, who refused to say the word "calories", and finally someone was able to pin him down that yes, eating too much means you won't lose weight. That's when I realized that a) the main benefit of low-carb/keto is it helps you eat fewer calories, and b) if it looks like someone is being evasive then they probably are.
Just a pointer - Don't use background music that has melodic keyboard or guitar or wind instruments. In this case it's not too bad, but it's a little distracting. Your videos are great, so it's just a minor tip.
Speed the vid up and pretend he's singing or rapping lol.
Hard to concentrate on what he’s saying with that annoying music.
Agreeeee!! Glad I am not the only one!
*I appreciate the detailed explanations and practical advice to fine-tune keto lifestyle for better results. Thanks for sharing!*
Very interesting points. Being only 2 months into Keto I find myself plateauing my weight loss. I am intermittent fasting 16/8 and eat only 2 meals a day. The misconception is the amount of fat I’m consuming at each meal thinking that I don’t need to limit my fat content. I realize now that i need to cut back on total fat content in each meal. Thank you.
Great information to ferret out those problem areas. Thank you.
Like how you get right to the point, keeps me engaged and such helpful content.
I struggled with keto too much, I just felt exhausted. We are supposed to enjoy the food we eat and with keto that's close to impossible. That's why I tried the Agoge diet and it works great.
i've been following the agoge diet and it definitely works great
Is this comment actually an advertisement?
@@Mrs.TJTaylor i think so
Lol nice sales pitch. But keto is perfect.
@@Mrs.TJTaylor Yes
And peanuts 🥜 has been my favorite snack when i drink. Things I learned during the journey: 1. Alcohol shuts your liver down from continuing to burn fat for up to 48 hours (even if food was ketogenic). 2. Nuts are full with with calories and its not a “healthy substitute “ 3. More salt in the nuts will cause water retention. Results: weight blows up on the scale. Thank you Doctor Dan for the video 🙂
Thank you. Very simply said. Quick, concise, and enjoyable. I'm glad I found you.
Thank you for some great insights into eating fat, losing weight and ketosis. You answered a couple of questions I have had.
Habit.
Thank you for excellent advice.
I have a really hard time fasting because I get really bad hunger headaches and stomachaches when I don’t eat. I don’t know what to do to feel satisfied longer.
I’m sugar free two months now, very low carb, and really need to cut back on the fats. More greens and veggies, I think, but I digest my food so fast!
I snack since my meals can’t be big, due to no gallbladder. I’m losing but slowly. 30 lbs in 5 months
Over time your liver will adapt to the demands of fat and you should be ble to minimize meals.
Susan Zelisko slowly?! 6 pounds a month is amazing! Nice job!
Well don you! 💪👏👏👏
I am weight loss coach and i can tell u : Thats NOT slow! U doing a great job! Keep going! Be proud of yourself !
Your Method thank you. I hit my goal (not trying to be 18 again). Lost 40 lbs down from 206 to 166 (size 16/18 - 8/10). Dropped my A1c from 6.3 to 5.3 (no medications). Also all my inflammatory markers (I have celiac disease) are now normal. 🙏
Very good advice, really learning so much, very helpful, thank you!
Thank you so much for the info so helpful!
Thanks for the great info, Dr Dan. I’ve been doing Keto for 10 months but not losing weight on the last 4. I will try decreasing my fats like you suggest. Is it necessary to increase protein so that I’m not having less calories. Worried about lowering my metabolism. Very informative channel, and you explain in an easy way for anyone
to understand!
So informative, thanks. Please keep it up.
Thank you! Loads more videos planned for 2020
Thank you for the thoroughly understandable and extremely helpful videos!
Extremely informative! It was helpful, thanks!
Keto diet app my favorite! Bless you Dr. Dan! Humoristic and clear story!
Great video with lots of good information. I have been in ketosis for 2 straight weeks (test several times each day) and not losing much weight and none at all in the second week. I have relied on peanuts and cheese for snacking which was two of the first things you mentioned to cut out or lower consumption. I am going to do that immediately to see how much that helps. thank you.
Did it help?
Thank you! I am struggling with weight gain and I am not sure what I am doing wrong, so I am going to work with some of your suggestions to see if that helps.
Thanks Doctor! YES I keep a small note pad and record everything I eat. I can see the imbalances immediately and make adjustments. I was overdoing the fat. Also, my sleep habits are absolutely horrific. My Ketones are up but I plateaued for just a bit. If I keep to the macro I am fine. thanks again.
Thank you for this video. I am in week 3 of my weight loss journey. I lost 12 lbs and in the last 5 days I have gained another 2 lbs. I think after watching this video I may be getting too much fat. I am going to try to take the steps you suggested. I appreciate your help!
I'm in this boat right now. Did you correct what you ate and continued to lose more?
Habit! First week of keto I was very satisfied but second week on, I got into my bad snacking habits 😔😔
So pleased that I have just found your channel. Where were you hiding I wonder? I agree with some of the other comments on thinking we can eat as much fat as we like. I never used to eat much cream, but developed a taste for M and S double cream since starting keto diet about 8 weeks ago. Glad to have been made more aware. Thank you.
I love this channel! So helpful!!! Would you consider doing a video on constipation with the keto diet?
Habit
One of my favorite was to eat a bag of chips in bed before bedtime! So bad for you but I was always skinny through unintentional intermittent fasting. But I couldn’t drop weight after having a baby so this has been my savior
So, you don’t track your food intake? Finally! A professional that agrees with me. Too time consuming and too inaccurate to rely on. Thank You!
Thank you for your brilliant insight, Dr. Dan.
❤️
Habit
Thank you Dr.Dan. You are my favourite teacher on keto.
I am such a terrible snacker and late-night snacks are my fav 🤦🏻♀️
Am I the only person who had not noticed the music until reading the comments???🤔
😆😆😆
Samee
Thank you. Going to try cutting cream and cheese out. Very informative video. Enjoyed it.
BEST TIP EVER! Track what you eat by snapping photos as you consume. Brilliant, simple idea. I mean how can you figure out what you are doing ineffectively until you can actually identify what you’ve eaten. Duh!
Thank you Dr Dan.
And, oh yes...definitely a habit snacker here. Guess I should pick up knitting again. It helped me quit smoking back in the day.
Walnuts, a day? Lol that little dish would be gone in 5 min here. Thanks Dr. Maggs, this is whats going on here.
I've been low carb for 3 months and a few days. I was adding cream to my coffee and butter on veggies because that's what all the information and videos was telling me to do! I don't find it necessary to make the coffee or food tastes good . I have bought coconut oil, MCT oil, olive oil, keto syrup, etc. and usually just use olive to cook with. I eat one meal a day and maybe one snack of roasted pecans and one stick of mozzarella wrapped in salami. I do not get hungry. I lost 15 lbs. in about 1 and a half months and inches. My weight loss is stuck at the 15 lbs., so maybe cutting out the fat will speed it up. Thanks for the info!
@Enchant Hey! Well, as I can remember, I think I cut out some of the fat also and lost 5 more lbs., but then the stupid virus hit and after sitting at home and getting bored, I started eating carbs. Here it is a year later and I had gained the 20 back, but I am back on keto again and have lost 5 lbs in about a week and a half...more inches than anything. I plan on staying the course this time! I think it's a great diet. Keep up the good work! Stay in touch and let me know how you're doing!
@Enchant You hit the nail on the head! Yes, it's finding out what works for our own bodies. We're all different. Carbs are so addictive and bring temporary pleasure, but we know what's going to happen when we eat them, but that's not to say, that ocassionally we can't treat ourselves. We just can't make a steady diet of it! LOL. Best of luck to you!
Thank you. Helped me a lot.
I really relate to this video in terms of the things you've brought up with the certain foods I eat.
Hi Dan. Thanks for the advice. I have been putting a tablespoon of cream in my coffee + butter + MCT oil only in the morning. I will hv another black cuppa mid morning sans cream etc. I am at a plateau atm and tearing my hair out lol .... I do IF during the week but will enjoy a decent meal on weekends with friends and even indulge in desserts. I think I hv to cut down on desserts and cream and butter in coffee and reevaluate again. Thanks for the heads up. Keep up. Cheers. 👍
thank you. i kind of like the music!!!!!!! and yes too many nuts, cheese and heavy whipping cream OY. inches lost though
Omg thanks so much your first person I've found to help me!!!
Hi there, Thanks for this video, happy to have found your channel. I have very recently started exploring/doing a Low Carb/High Fat diet. I came to it via a weight loss forum, and I am trying to adopt a very low carb way of eating, and adding more fats. I am interested to see you saying that it is possible to eat too much fat as this is what I thought, but folk don't always leave you with that impression! I will proceed with caution!
Cream is me!!! Yes I easily overdo the fat calories!!
minismom09 Yep.
I can understand.
; )
Great video!
Thanks Gretchell! :-)
Thank You 💜 You hit all the reasons I'm in a stall. Apparently too much heavy cream, cheese, nuts , mayo or bacon grease 🤸♀️🤸♀️🤸♀️ I was at my ideal weight. these last couple of weeks my weight is creeping up.
I’ll be more aware though. Thanks
Goodmorning,
Yes this is very helpfull. Thanks and habe an nice saterday. Oh ja i am from The Netherlands
Like this men .Nice hearing him
Can be a comedian
I’m new to this and I’m definitely eating too much fat, loads of the meals I’ve made have cream or cheese in them, so much so that I’m feeling nauseous at some meals, it’s good to hear I can cut back on the fats! Hallelujah!
Great info thank you!
Tone the music down a bit makes it hard to focus on what your saying
I wasn't focusing to the music until you mentioned now the only thing I'm hearing is the annoying music
And get to the point quicker......
Worst music ever!
Please! It is so annoying and you talk a lot of sense.
The music was unfortunately more than annoying to me; a few seconds into the video my anxiety level went sky high and I got chest pains related directly to the strange rythm. Had to mute the sound and read the text (not my preferred way to get the content because I like to read the comments as I listen.) The subject matter was exactly what I needed to explore after being in constant ketosis for over a month and intermittently fasting for longer than that, as I have not lost a pound nor an inch (or even a centimeter:(. My point is that even though I was so keen to access the content, the music made it impossible to listen to, and I wonder what possibly could be the point could be to add it? Other than that, thank-you very much to Dr Maggs.
It was easy to lose doing an Atkins Diet in my 40’s. 40lbs in 4 months. Things slowed down a lot in my 50’s. Now in my 60’s keto only allows me to maintain. No lose. So now I have to do a 48 hour fast here and there. Fasting from a keto state isn’t to hard. Kind of exciting for some weird reason.
Same here. I'm 57y. Is it difficult to do such a long fast?? I've been doing IF and the longest I've been able was 18 hours comfortably and easily.
Drink ketones bhb from Ketologic. It's a game changer.
Thanks for the encouragement. I lost 30 pounds a few years ago doing keto. But I could never get down to my goal - 10 more... After the holidays, I'm back on keto. In ketosis. Still struggling a bit. I will watch my fat closely. Thanks!
How you getting on?
WRT calorie counting: it’s very good for the realization of our portion distortion. Use if for a few weeks and you soon see how a portion size should be for our diets. This is a sustainable life style approach, so I do feel calorie countIng with cronometer etc is very useful as a starter.
No music, please !
Just found your channel! Awesome content 👍🏻 flowing you from Dubai 😘
Great Video.. Thank You!!
Several useful facts (eg sleep less eat more) I'd not heard anywhere else. Thanks.
I am not losing weight. I just started the keto diet about three weeks ago, tomorrow starts week four. I'm religiously tracking all my food in MFP and weighing all my ingredients. Most days I average around 12-15 net carbs per day and keeping my calories under 1200. I am spinning 5 days a week for 30 minutes every morning fasted. I take a thirty minute brisk walk every evening. According to my apple watch I complete all of my activity circles and I am walking around 9000 steps a day. I am doing IF and average anywhere from 16-18 hours depending on how hungry I am. I drink almost a gallon of water every day and I am sleeping an average of 7-9 hours most nights. I feel like I am doing literally EVERYTHING right and I have lost 1-2lbs and I teeter between losing 2lbs and going up or down 1-2lbs. What the hell is going on? I am getting so frustrated.
some people genetics arent efficient at running on fat as fuel, so rather you can just CICO and IF with carb meals
Definitely something up I lost 15 lbs in about 2 1/2 weeks
I have the same exact problem and doing the same as you
Buy keto sticks , they are urine test strips. Eat 0-5 grams of carbs a day for one week it should get you into a deep ketosis. Eating fat ( solid fats help the most) causes the body to ketose more heavily and keeps you more satisfied and is used for energy on the keto diet. Check your urine every day, if there's a pink tint you are ketosing and there for loosing weight. The darker the pink the heavier you are ketosing meaning the faster your loosing weight. I got all this info from Dr. Atkins book titled Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution. I read it as a teenager, it's the book my dad followed he was 400 some lb and lost all the weight in a year and a half. 400 lb to 135 lb in a year and a half is amazing! You can try looking for other successful keto dieters books or utube videos also. Ask around. But Dr. Atkins book explains it very thoroughly.
Hopefully his book is still on the market.
Please stop the background music
I've watched those vids that say fat's okay bc you can't turn fat into fat, etc. blah blah ad nauseam. You're the first to speak the truth about all aspects of diet & fasting. Life is never all black & white, & neither are the fixes that easy to explain. Yes, simplify, but don't oversimplify the findings. You get four stars out of four for your honesty, doc. And where did you get that accent?
I over do it with butter, Mayo and cream! Didn’t realize it would cause issues. Definitely cutting back and see what happens!
Cheese is defo something I need to monitor. Recent stress will have impacted too but school holidays should help with meal planning, increased exercise and stress! Would love to drop just 3kg in 6 wks!!!
Hello there.I'm from Greece , I'm in keto 2 years ago. i suffer from diabet type 1 , Addison's deseace, and multiple sclerosis. The fact is that i had three outbreaks in the brain but in the new MRI scan we found only one,the other two disappeared. That is a good reason for me to stay in ketosis like a life style and not like a diet to lose weight. My diabet is in a better evolution cause i never get over the limit.my questions is.. for how long can we stay in keto diet , Many doctors in Greece don't accept this situation, but for me it's a miracle. Thank for your time and sorry for my bad English language!!!
Your story is interesting! In Germany its the same with the Doctors.
I had some patients who healed after changing their eating habits, but most of the doctors dont like to tell them, that it can be treated without meds.
Keep going, you need to know that u re doing the right job, your Body is telling u that already and your Body is smart.
Thanks for your story!
@@itsyourmethod thank you so much, you make me feel so happy!!
@@user-sx4no6sj5z have you watched Dr. Rhonda Patrick's UA-cam (Found my Fitness). She talks alot about medical studies on keto. Really good info. But to your first question; I don't think there are any long term studies on either medical keto diets, or modified Atkins diets. But I would get your blood tested at least yearly, and focus on how you feel. If no medical issues arise keep the diet going.
Μαρια Παππα So, r u type 1and in ketosis?
See Dr. Ken Berry on UA-cam
Thanks for the video 👍😊
Thanks for watching!
Thank you ,Really helped
I eat cashews, cheddar cheese and plain Greek yogurt (probably not ideal) I am Eating out of hunger. I loose appetite for a few days then I get hungry. I also fast at least 1 day per week and feast 1 day per week. The ketone strips quit working. When I first started fasting and keto I would get purple keystones. I have lost over 30 lbs since April 2019. Now I am at a plateau but I am loosing inches and clothing sizes. I have been same weight for about 2 months. I have 20 lbs more to go. I put my little pants on that were skin tight all over and now I am so much smaller (looks like I had a body lift procedure I am so trim and firm) but the same weight I was 2 months ago. I am old and this is a slow process. I use free weights, walk and do squats and have always been active even when I was heavier.
I think it's definitely snacking on nuts and cheese that are limiting my weight loss. The snacking thing is habit for sure. Evening with the hubs in front of the TV. He's snacking, so I want to too.
Yeah I think I have been over doing the fats thanks for the info great video.
Thanks for this excellent UK video. I buy nuts in Lidl, the cheapest by far. I put a label on the jar. 5 brazil nuts is 150 calories, 10 pecans is 150 calories etc....it helps me realise how easy it is to go over the limit. I moved from thick extra cream on my strawberries to single cream, half the calories. I use feta cheese on salads, its much less calories than lovely Cheddar, which I eat less but enjoy more. I find I eat snacks at night as a habit, but I am not hungry. If I eat lunch then I want more food later on, so I go as long as I can before I eat, then its less likely I will eat more during the whole day. If I want to go mad I eat avocados, I also use good quality Balsamic vinegar instead of mayonaisse, and it helps me cut the butter on cooked veggies. Great channel.
This is me, 100%. I've been doing keto for 17 months and no weight loss. 14-20 carbs a day. BUT I put cream in my coffee and I have a constant cup of coffee with me at all times. Plus, since I work in the daytime and nighttime, I sleep for 4 hours, am up for a while and then sleep another 4. I think these things are the reason I haven't lost one pound! Sooo frustrating. I think my insulin level is another reason why (Type 2 diabetes). I've been falling off the wagon lately because it's just so depressing spending all this money on good meats, fish, etc., and not getting the results everyone else seems to. I'm going to take your advice and try to (somehow) cut back on the cream, cheese and butter. It's so sad because that's what was so much fun about keto. :(
R u counting the carbs in the heavy cream you use in all that coffee?
@@freedomfighter7079 Yes, I was, actually but 14 carbs a day was still too much for me. I've been carnivore now for a while and that's doing the trick. Unfortunately, I'm one of those people for whom keto just wasn't enough but I do love carnivore! And I still sneak a cup of coffee in the morning--with heavy cream. :)
@@freedomfighter7079 There aren't many carbs in heavy cream vs say milk or half n half correct? It's neglible..but the fat can take the place of body fat so will interfere with weight loss. I too like heavy cream but I'll stop now! I'll do anything and mentally-adjust to whatever I have to do. To me carbs are rat poison.

Thanks Dr Dan...you have halted my almond habit .. you are the best I've heard re keto diet.
Dry nice video. Thank you
I’m in the middle of week 5, I lost the first 2 weeks but nothing since, my weight just goes up and down now within a couple pounds. I track every bite I eat on a tracker, I never reach my full macros, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong and I don’t want to give up but I’m frustrated. I’ve been watching videos and reading blogs to try to find out what I’m doing wrong and where I need to tweak things. Would love any advice. Ty. Blessings everyone 🌺🌺🌺

I saw big results with IF ratio 18/6 and tracking food intake by My fitness pal, hope this helps
