- Visceral fat is what most of us think of as belly fat. It is the term used to describe the fat that builds up within the abdomen. Visceral fat cannot be pinched, but it does expand your waistline, crowd your internal organs, and actively contribute to disease.
In this video, I’ll explain why this type of fat is harmful and how you can get rid of it.

Dropping the 100 lbs of misery weight I put on after a spinal cord injury with these exact methods. Doing it from a wheelchair with zero movement below my chest. Calorie restriction and the typical 3 meal diet would have never had these results. I’m 70lbs down in less than a year 💪♿️
Awesome
Well done. So happy for you.
Congratulations 🎉 That’s an amazing accomplishment, way to go!
@@BlessedEternally1 thank you. Been one hell of a journey, but it’s so much easier with a leaner/lighter body 🙏
You're an inspiration... Good job!
I retired in April 2020 at age 62 and weight 205 at 5'8".
I've lost 47 pounds and now weigh 158 on May 31, 2021 (BMI Normal).
I initially lost 25 in 4 months, then plateaued for about 6 months.
Learned more tactics, then lost the next 22 in just over 3 months.
CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think working has a lot to do with how much comfort food & drink we consume. Not only that but the time and motivation we have for exercise. Keep up the GREAT work.
That's great. Congrats!
What are you eating?
I have done Keto in the past and I lost 4lbs in 14 months of doing strict Keto resistance training and cardio.
Also I have done OMAD eating carbs and working out over the last few years with zero success in fact I think I have gained some weight and inches, definitely not muscle. I even added walking five miles a day for 90 days straight and still nothing. Since nothing has worked for me starting December 31st I switched to low carbs (only carbs I eat are from berries) and still I can't lose an ounce of weight... My hunger just almost never goes away. Thank you.
You’re so soothing to listen to. You should consider narrating audiobooks.
Or ASMR videos 🙂
Lovely & refreshing, very relaxing.
Nope, I would sleep through entire book. She should be meditation “You are kind, you are good enough...” or yoga🧘🏽♀️
I agree. Her voice is so soft and smooth. You can bet, I listen to her at night while I'm going to sleep too. She's my trusted subliminal voice. Love her.
Even when I was thinner, I didn’t realise just how much visceral fat I had. It took low-carb and IF/OMAD to finally burn it off. Eat fat to burn fat, who knew?
Love as always Becky, you’re a lifesaver! ♥️
Re: OMAD-a. what period of time did you eat all your calories in 1 hour? 4 hours? b. Did you find it difficult to eat that much calories/nutrition in that short period of time? Thanks.
@@Scottlp2 Hi, Depending on the meal, an hour to hour and a half. A big salad can take a some time to eat but I have no trouble getting the calories especially when fat comes in so many firms and is so delicious. Getting enough nutrients isn’t an issue either as I eat a whole-food diet, so nothing processed, or with a label. I find too that I can eat more in a single meal than I ever cooks before, even when I was 20/4 IF. My body adapted very well to the single meal which is why I stepped up from IF. I regularly do 48 hour fasts about once every two weeks, and I’m maintaining my weight and health excellently.
@@gordyn5292 great stuff. What are the healthy fats and proteins for a Keto diet, iydmma? :)
@@johnlee8619 Lard, Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Grass-fed Butter, all healthy. I’ve not tried it myself but add Avocado Oil to that.
Protein, for a start I use the fat the meat comes pre-packed in! 😉👍

Dr. Becky, two years ago I followed you faithfully on TH-cam. I lost weight and gained muscle. I stopped watching you and slowly returned to my bad habits. I gained some of the weight back and now am back to watching you in order to lose the weight I gained back and to get healthier. I thank you for sharing your knowledge. Blessings.
How did you do?
Best EXPLANATION IVE HEARD
Excellent info Dr Becky.
Good advice, short, sweet and on point
Thank you for utilizing your gifts🙏
All the info I needed and the video wasn’t much over 5 minutes. Wow. Better than searching google and reading through loads of stuff. You explained it all so well - thank you!
Crystal clarity explanation ❤❤❤
Always good and easy to understand information! Thank you!!!
Super informative and to the point! And very comprehensible. Thank you Dr.!
I’m learning more each day about visceral fat and I’m so appreciative of your channel for explaining it clearly
Excellent explanation. Easy to understand. Thank you
You’re always so informative and you explain the information thoroughly! Thank you!
Very articulate,accurate, professional. Subbed.
Clear, concise and very easy to listen to your calm voice. I've subscribed and will look at your other videos. Thank you.
Just found your site today and happily subscribed. Your presentations are easily understood and educational. Thank you from a senior who never had weight problems until two years ago (medical issue). Am on my way as I make the transition into this new lifestyle.
That's valuable information in 6 short minutes. Direct to the point leaving the follow up to those in need of a lifestyle change. Well Done 👍
Thank you for explaining this so well.
BECKY - At 4 minutes 31seconds you've said that '4 weeks of fasting' has shown to reduce weight, should that say 'intermittent fasting on and off for 4 weeks'. Is it just me, or is there a risk someone might try to actually fast for 4 weeks continuous, clearly deleterious.
Excellent, accurate, up to date, highly relevant presentation, perfectly explained, please keep them coming.
this was easy for me to understand. I like how you presented the material in a simple and clear way. Thanks!
My wife and I started keto a few months ago. It has been amazing
Thank you Dr Becky for your continuing support to health science. Our prayers are with you and Dr Keith's recovery.
Great show and topic!!!
Thanks Dr. Becky, great info!
Thanks Dr. Becky. Keeping you and Dr. Keith in our thoughts and prayers. I wish there was a way we could help. Please know that we're thinking of you.
I found you at a critical point in my health and I thank GOD for you and your wealth of knowledge!
Thank you kindly Dr Becky. Continued 🙏🙏🙏 & well wishes for Dr Keith.
Fantastic video!
I am so enjoying your content . You share relevant and insightful information that informs and inspires me on my healthy lifestyle living journey as a ten year stroke survivor. Thank you. Keep on sharing, please!😉👍💯
Very well explained Dr Becky
Thank you
Thank you for this video. It was concise informative and we'll structured. You answered a few questions about visceral fat and how to attack the problem I look forward to viewing more of your videos.
Again, I thank you.
Dr Becky, you are amazing. I'm so grateful for your wisdom and experience that you share but above all for the gentle and loving manner with which you share it. God bless you.
I learn a lot from your channel Dr. Becky. Thank you for that!
Thank you for this. It's very informative 👏👏👏
Very informative, thanks.
Concise, informative, and soothing. This video pretty much captures all the basics about insulin resistance and belly weight loss.
Dropping weight since Sept, I've had a flat stomach (ok, with some loose skin) first time since my mid fifties (62) I thought things just "shifted" in menopause but changing diet did help not counting calories.Exercise didn't help but good for you in other ways. Low carbs from 50-80 most days not Keto, worked for me.
Thank you!!! Always great knowledge.
Very good explanation of different forms of fat. Prayers for your hubby
GREAT VIDEO. VERY COOL. THANK YOU! SPOT ON!
Awesome video and awesome advice. 3 years eating meat heavy keto diet with lots of fasting. Lost 50 lbs and now weigh 178 lbs. I have changed my body and got ripped using what your suggesting. Fantastic video and advice.
What a great video! Thank you so much ❤
I don't know if it is nerves robbing you of appetite, or redirected energy amping up your exercise routine, but you look slimmer and trimmer than ever! Again, you are the epitome of professional representation. You and your info are much appreciated! 👏👍💕Page 202 will probably be prepared along with dinner this weekend. 😉I LOVE them.
Wonderful indeed Dr. Thanks
👌🏼 Thank you Dr. Gillaspy! 👌🏼😊
Thank you for telling the truth.
Prayers for you and Keith. Hope he is doing well and you too.
Great video!
What happened to Keith?
I find your videos so peaceful and informative... I just signed up for the low-carb challenge. And already I see the program is full of good recipes and information. Thank you!
Welcome, Shannon!
within 20 seconds she told me all i needed to know
I've been losing a lot of weight over a long period of time. So far my total loss is about 200 pounds. I have a ways to go but I have very little "Pinchable" fat compared to what I had. What I know about weight loss is terribly outdated but I've been doing a lot of study by way talking to physicians. Sadly there seems to be as many ideas about handling this problem as there are doctors. I have about 60 or 70 pounds to go and a couple bad habits left to break. Watching this video has reminding me of things that I already knew and taught me a few new things. Thank you.
Hi ❤️ for some reason you tube doesn't alert me of your new videos...it's good to see you
Fabulous video thankyou
Thank you for this
I got your book it’s excellent, and your awesome!
I agree. Great book!
Always happy to see you! Of course, you’re very informative. Still praying 🙏 for Keith’s remission. ❤️🙏
Thank you, Melissa! We just posted an update video: th-cam.com/video/M9KtZJM-b94/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for your helpful advice delivered in such a calm way. I am 6 weeks into a 16:8 low carb diet and have lost 10lb so far. It has also gradually lowered my fasting blood glucose levels. This morning I calculated my BMI and it was 24.9 so I am at the upper end of the normal weight range for the first time in 46 years! This gives me the incentive to keep going so that I can face the rest of my old age feeling so much healthier. Carol UK
Wonderful, Carol!
Dropped 45 pounds in 4 months doing IF, and dirty keto, kept it off 7 months now by maintaining the new eating lifestyle.
Shared at Health and Wellness ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still sending up prayers as well 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, Vintage Girls! We just posted an update video: th-cam.com/video/M9KtZJM-b94/w-d-xo.html
Excellent, THANK You 😊👍
Thank you! My biggest problem is visceral fat. My other problem is carb addiction. I’m going to try and hopefully stick with the high fat, moderate protein approach along with lots of leafy greens. I was really feeling hopeless until now. Thanks!
Guess it’s the other way around
Your biggest problem is carb addiction
Are you open to working one on one with an online personal trainer who can give you a customized effective workouts, motivation and guidance to help you work towards your goals?
@@GladiatorKingz r u offering
Thanks Dr Becky
Nurse here….great info❤❤
Love your videos always ty
Love your videos...I don't really understand the insulin resistance issue...would you be willing to explain it in more detail?
IF and Keto has been life changing. Exercising daily has sped up the process
Thanks So So Much! I’ve Subscribed too!!! ❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💖💘💖💘💖💖, Thanks So Much For Your Solutions Too!
Another great video, thank you. Please put out an update on how Dr. Keith is doing! You both are part of my Internet family and I pray for you and would like to have whatever information you are comfortable with sharing.
Hi Ralph, we just posted an update video: th-cam.com/video/M9KtZJM-b94/w-d-xo.html
I LOVE your kitchen ❤
Thank you!
Excellent informative video. Very clear and concise. Very respectful of the intelligence of the viewer. I would add that I have learned there is a big difference between simple and complex carbs and that it is important to understand that difference. You want those complex carbs. Do you agree /disagree? Thank you!
Thank you
great stuff and anecdotally my life experience says you are 100% correct... I am able to reduce my waistline by reducing carbohydrates and/or intermittent fasting. Otherwise weight and waist loss is nearly impossible, even with consistent high intensity exercise
Wow... This was one very concise and loaded with information. Much better then many youtubers out there.
Thank you doctor
Thank you Dr
Everything you say is true! I did the above for 60 days and lost 32 lbs!
Doesnt intermittent fasting disrupt hormones even more if we have pcos already
Thank you.
Hi Dr. Becky, just saw some of your videos on Perimenopause/ Menopause. Can you give us suggestions on maybe five snacks \ desserts that are healthy and that won't spike your blood sugar levels..and that will keep you satisfied...😁. Love your channel, so informative...
OMG THANK YOU SM
Fructose has to be in the conversation. It is metabolized only in the liver and can cause fatty liver disease. It could be the worst type of visceral fat.
You have a realistic view of weight loss. I can't go keto since I haven't eaten meat in over 30 years. Thank you so much!
@ Joan Smith
Are you vegan? If not, eat fish, eggs and full fat cheese. That's keto.
If you’re vegan You can eat nuts, avocado, vegetables, tofu. If not vegan you can have heavy cream, all cheese, mayonnaise, eggs, berries
Thank you, Dr. Becky! How’s Dr. Keith doing? We’ve never met but I feel like you and Keith are my old friends....
Thanks, Moira! We just posted an update video: th-cam.com/video/M9KtZJM-b94/w-d-xo.html
I'm down 8 lbs so far and it's really not a difficult method. Thanks Dr Becky 💖
What u doing?
I lost 100 pounds in about 4 or 5 months on keto and omad , but I've hit a wall. No matter what I do I can't seem to lose the last 25 pounds. It's still a blessing to be 100 pounds lighter and not worry about diabetes. Giving up carbs is hard, but after awhile you don't miss them too much. I still eat my favorite foods on my birthday and Christmas. YOLO
48 to 72 hour fast
You can lose weight on any diet that you don’t eat for three days. But you will get it all back and your body will think it’s starving so your metabolism will slow down.
I’ll m a telephonic interpreter can assure you you have one of the most calming voices I have heard 😊..
Go for low carbo high fat food and or intermittent fasting. Got it. Many thanks.
Pls make video on sugar tea and coffee addiction
I've learn't alot about insulin resistance through your channel and the importance of low carb and low sugar diet. Whats disturbing I realized is that part of the problem is evidence resistance by our medical community over the years by overlooking the benefits of the diet for their patients. I'm not labeling all doctors but the evidence has always been there!! I'd rather see a prescription that reads low carb and low sugar.
Thanks again,
Dr. Becky

Low carb is the only diet that has help me lose weight on my belly . When I hit 21 I couldn’t lose weight any other way. I am 39 now still the same.
Regularly exercise and cardio
Do you have a video about how to get rid of subcutaneous fat as well? Thank you for your content!
I've been on a keto diet, and cardio based program for 4 months now. Lost 23kg in 1 month, but for the past 3 months I've been stuck to the same weight. Can't seem to get rid of that stubborn fat. The only explanation I have is I went too extreme and my body adapted, so I strongly advise to take it step by step. If you don't, your body will adapt too quickly. Also, make sure to eat lots of fibre, or you might get constipated. Constipation stops fat loss.
Keep doing what you're doing and add more walking
Good n helpful info..thank u doc👍
Very helpful. But what about endurance athletes, who need to take on high carbohydrates during sport exercises?
Just one quibble, aerobic exercise performed at a high level becomes anaerobic and burns glucose instead of fat.
First... Becky, you look great! Your fitness is an inspiration to me. Second, can someone help me figure out how to eat more healthy fats? I've got avocado, olive oil, nuts, eggs, and cheese. But to make this the majority of my caloric intake, I need to find more variety.
I am 21 year old male 4 months ago I was diagnosed with diabetes with fasting glucose of 286 mg/dl and a1c of 10 . after searching on internet and knowing insulin resistance and visceral fat ... I noticed the bottom of my belly is slightly bigger since I was a kid even I am not fat I am in healthy weight and close to be skinny
Ugh so confusing low carb or high carb? Will you do a video on low carb and high carb diets? Thanks!
Dear Dr Becky, Can you re-do an update talk on " How To Avoid That Instant Fat Feeling" I'm wondering why I am feeling bloated. I'm one week sugar-free on the 40-day challenge! My tea tastes bad though. I'm hoping that will change. Thank you
Clear as crystal!
Anyway, for a constructive feedback, your video quality should be higher than this. The quality of this video is like a 1990's movie 😅
