Thank you for your clear tips. I'm a little sceptical about the ketogenic diet, especially in terms of cardiovascular health and visceral fat. Do you know of any publicly funded research that shows eating a high fat diet, including meat and dairy fats, doesn't compromise heart and vascular health or build up of visceral fat? I'm 57 (post menopausal and have never tried HRT). Thanks 🌸
I'm actually looking into fat removal..... I'm 50 and I feel depressed cause the weight just isn't coming off anymore. I eat healthy and exercise 4 -5 a week, no junk. I have one ovary only, so assuming my hormones have tanked. I just feel sad and defeated. Ugh
I’m over 50 (and healthy) and a little bit of fat is ok. I’ve noticed people who lose too much fat also look older. Over 50, I think there’s a need to keep a bit of fat on, especially on the face. Besides, most men like women with a bit of fat on them, trust me. Lol.
Dr Becky I am 64 and fast everyday as well as eating once a day! I have never felt healthier! I lost so much weight and no longer have a belly. Thank you so much for your videos! 🌹
@ Marci...can you explain more about eating once a day, how long do you fast? how do you curve your hunger the rest of the time, do you drink any milk/ snack or other things when you are not fasting.
@@pumamurals1317 , I eat a lot of veg, more so than chicken but am very aware of carbs! I don't eat potatoes, pumpkin, butternut. I think my success is eating OMAD which is normally at lunch and then again the next day. Dr Becky suggests having a big salad everyday, which I never miss. I don't snack and don't eat sugar. Because of my age I am very disciplined about what I eat. Blessings!
@@Razrai-bn8vf Razrai as I mentioned I eat once a day which is my main meal at lunch, everyday I have a big salad with one avocado, no salad dressing, I use lemons and olive oil. I think I have my cravings I just don't pay too much attention to them. I don't buy anything that I would crave for and it helps. I don't drink cows milk but almond milk if I need to, I don't snack or maybe once in a blue moon when I am with my family. I fast from around 2 or 3pm (after lunch) until the next day the same time. Eating once a day doesn't mean you can go wild, I follow the Keto lifestyle so my meal would be according to what they suggest. I hope this helps but there are professionals like Dr Becky who could help you even more. Blessings
Dr Becky you are such a graceful woman thank you for helping so many of us older women I'm really happy I have been doing better with eating low carbs and no sugar maybe I cheat a little but it's OK because I'm losing slowly and feeling a little bit better
Low carb and especially fasting has been the game changer for me. I'm 56 years old and had been 150lbs. for so long. Now I'm 135lbs. It took a few months...fasting was the biggie. ❤
@Dreamboat, maybe your doctor can help you with that. I fully understand the frustration of no willpower. I'm menopausal and put on 20-30lbs in the last 2 years without realizing it. Now that I've discovered Dr. Becky, I have motivation and lost 10lbs over the last month. It's hard work, but it is coming off. I wish you well on your journey. You can do it!
@Dreamboat Annie Hey there, Dreamboat, I hope you don't worry yourself too much. The most important thing is health. I didn't realize this video (and my comment!) was from two years ago! Well, I've gained most of that weight back but I'm not overly fretting about it. It's nice to be lighter, and I'm definitely going to start on that lower carb road again. I have to be careful though since during the time I lost all that weight, I gained a big, fat kidney stone. Thankfully and almost miraculously, it passed on its own, but my diet is first and foremost for my kidney health. It sounds like you--like most of us--have a very strong HABIT in place. Those are hard to break! I wonder if you can at least replace a late night snack with a low carb food. I'm very much convinced that the higher the carb--and the more processed it is--the more I'm going to crave eating anything... ANYTHING! So, I'd say don't beat yourself up. But I definitely have to have a PLAN ready, one that fits my issues, my body, my life. Keep in touch and let us know how you do! ❤️
This is about weight loss, not losing belly fat. I have no problem losing weight by walking, the problem is that, even when emaciated, I still have excess belly fat.
I am 53 and you MUST start taking prebiotic tablets and enzyme tablet - it's a game changer. The small bit of fat you have you can make look better by lifting weights or doing pilates reformer.
Hi, I am 49, I will be 50 in December. I have no belly fat at all. I am in menapause. I do intermittent fasting, 16 hours of fasting, 8 hours of eating. I also prefer a vegetarian diet. Diet is key. Low carbs, little or no sugar and less dairy. I am lean. Ashwaraganda keeps my stress levels low, apple cider vinegar helps alot and iodine supplements (kelp). I eat avo everyday (good fats). Gluten free is best as it helps to stop me from being bloated. Trust me, it's not difficult when you put your mind to it. I tell my friends... Stop complaining, you have the ability to take control of your own life.
Agree with you Shereen...only you can take personal responsibility for your life..if something seems to be broken, there is no excuse to not find & attempt the fix. Never has helpful information been so available to everyone wishing to pursue it.
Hi Dr. B....thank you so much for the incredible content. In this "everyone is an expert" world of Instagrammers and younger TH-camrs, I appreciate the level of expertise and solid information from an older woman who has "been there, done that". So helpful to those of us over 50---relatable and much-needed!!
At your age her diet plan was my eating plan and always ate what I wanted but work would put the pounds on, so I stepped up the workout all was good and many people have a covid belly due to the lock downs and the fasting is hard, so I listen to Dr Allan Mandel, 1tb spoon olive oil with half chayane pepper good squeeze plenty of lemon juice fresh and honey 1ts, but he says quarter 1ts . Motavition Doc . You will not feel as hungry. Hope this helps also as I am over 60 getting fatter but will get there.
I just found your channel today. I am 55, and had 2 partial knee replacements in 2017. Lack of any decent exercise because of these replacements (it's not like changing a tire, I'll tell you that! I can't squat or crawl anymore) and a poor diet has added 50 lbs. I am 1 week in to my new fitbit. And I am so grateful to get ahold of your channel and the 0,1,2,3 strategy, and I can't wait to dig in! I need to change my bad habits before it's too late! I want to be active and have fun with my grandkids!!!
Wow 😯 Hope you're doing great now. How is your health God Bless you Amen 🙏. She is Really trying helping out other women. Thanks to her allots of women are doing great today. Hello Dear. How are you?
I love your clear and informative videos! Thank you! I love IF and my husband and I have been doing it one day a week for 5 years. I also try to eat within a narrower time window. It helps to have a partner who is on board with me! One benefit I get from IF is knowing that I do have control! So often we get scrambled and use food to comfort. Stay calm, breath and eat your greens!
Lisa Lee try dermablading. You can do this at home yourself. Ive use to go every three weeks religiously to have it done but since the quarantine I ordered the blades from sephora and do them myself now.
Just yesterday I was saying to myself, how glad I am, that I got my carb consumption reduced over a year ago. Even during stressful times now, I make much better choices. I was able to lose the 20 pounds, that I put on before and during menopause. Now I am 55 and have the strategies in place, that I need to maintain a healthy weight and live a better life. And all of this I learned on the internet, not from my actual doctor. Thanks to you, Dr Becky and other TH-cam channels that provide so much helpful information!
Does HRT help to lose belly fat? I wouldn’t take it just for this reason but I’m curious if taking estrogen actually does make a difference which would prove that the reason we gain after menopause is the lack of estrogen.
My diet has consisted with all you mentioned for over 20yrs. And the past year my belly has gotten out of control. I changed my diet after learning of adrenal fatigue which I know western medicine doesn’t recognized. I walk for exercise because heavy exercise makes me tank… went vegan 8 months and I don’t do dairy. I eat btwn 10a -7am which is mostly just one meal or homemade vegetable juices..heaviest meal around 2pm…Not sure what else to do. The belly is out of control. You mentioned adrenals and that all I configure is the issue.
Yes I’m 56 now and fealing terrible coz of my menopause I eat healthy Try and excersise as have fybromyalgia. Yes so true hate how I look now . Feal so uncomfortable 🥵 Thankyou for this .
I am 55 years old. I walk 3-5 miles every day with my husband and father. I eat very little. Lots of salads. I`m always complaining because I feel bloated and fat after I eat. I use to go to the gym and felt so much better then than I do now. I`m sure it`s because I did a variety of different exercises including weights. I have weights at home and might try doing some in the evening time a few days week. I will say since I have hit menopause the belly fat is there. And I hate it! Thanks for the tips!
I have not eaten ANYTHING sweet in 25 years. That includes anything sweetened with any type of sweetener, keto or not. One of the major problems with dieting is the people don't really diet; they still eat forbidden foods and wonder why they gain weight. May as well learn to LOVE your fat belly.
Great summary of really works Dr 👍 insuline resistance is the no 1 problem for women after 40. The other tip that works wonders is : no gluten. This is painful. Yes. Living without gluten is hard. Most of pleasure and comfort foods are loaded with gluten. We love it, but this is really toxic to us at that age 🥺 Keep away from it as much as you can. Cutting on gluten intake reduces inflamation and reduces fat cells like magic. Good luck Ladies! ✊
it gets harder to lose weight as you age. That being said, my mother lost over 50 pounds on keto and she is in her 70s. It can be done so don't let age be a barrier.
Hi Dr am 43 yrs since my delivery had a big belly and I consult a Dr he told me that its bloating and stress, even I control my foods have exercises I dont loose to much weight, am 95 kg and am vegetarian. Plzz if u can help me am tired bcoz I have heavy legs nd people comments my own dear once ,stressed me more.
I have not taken HRT but I wonder if taking it now would help me get leaner. I have been exercising since my teens and always exercised regularly but I had a heart attack 08-2018 and that slowed my exercise routine for a few months but I have tried to go back to exercing 6 days a week using the Tony Horton method Beach Body which had helped me before. My cardiologist says coconut oil is unhealthy so I don't use it anymore (I used it very little anyway). I am not a big eater, love veg and high fiber foods, don't like fried foods, don't have soft drinks just Hibiscus and black tea (cold). I do love chocolate high in cacao content 70+ this is my weakness. Should I try that powder HRT advertised on TV, to kick start the hormone levels in my body?
Regarding hibiscus tea, is there any concern with arsenic or chemicals when buying the tea? Wondering if you have a recommended brand or a country of origin to look for (or avoid). Thanks!
I've been losing weight from the top down. My face is thinner, my neck and shoulders thinner, arms getting a bit thinner. I've lost fat from my back and from my thighs. Upper abdomen, thinner. But my belly and lower abdomen have not lost. I started with a huge belly hangover, and it is still just as huge. The problem is extra skin. I am hoping to lose this extra skin through fasting and autophagy, but it seems all the fat has to go first. I have lost eighty pounds but have another eighty pounds to go. And now I have stalled, haven't lost a pound for a month. I'm going up and down and up and down the same three pounds for a whole month.
This could have been written by me. This is exactly my story. The weight is going from the top down. Really not seeing much change at the lower abdomen.
I believe diet is key: 80% diet and 20% physical fitness works to help with the weight gain also the type of diet helps. What many women fail to also realize, childbirth later in life also contributes as well as the epidural which is pumped into our bodies thus atrophying our muscle tissue. Muscle is what burns fat. When your abdominal muscles have lost elasticity along with the medicinal epidural, can wreck havoc on the female form and it varies case by case.
I've always needed explanations of "why" something is, rather than just accepting a comment. You are great! You explained WHY fats are important to our hormones. I had heard that before but no explanation as to why so I had a hard time accepting or understanding it. I have learned so much from your details-thank you Dr!
I have a background in Foods and Nutrition and I can say your video has cut cut through all the poproganda around diets. More than any other time in history we are eating more sugar and processed fats that are destroying our health. It is hard to change bad habits especially when it ismarketed everywhere and know it is all about money and profits. Learn the truth and start with small changes it will make a difference.
I got rid of mine quick by intermittent fasting and low carbs. I use a calorie counter, it shows how many carbs are in each type of food and I keep my carbs around 70. It works for me. 😃
I'll be 38 in April and had my ovaries removed at 15yrs old so been in menopause most of my life. Belly fat is my problem. I want to lose 15lbs. Intermittent fasting worked for a bit but thought it might be working against me. I've heard that if you're in menopause you should not go without eating more than 4 hours during your awake. Is that true in your opinion? Might try again. Used to fast for 16ish hours a day.
I don't understand because I'm 5.6 tall and 133 Ibs and I have belly fat ? I don't really want to lose weight but I do want to get rid of the belly fat so what to do?
Dr. Becky, I'm doing the IF, try to stay on a keto diet, try to eat some vegetables, I do sauerkraut, pickled beets, and getting back into walking now that the weather is better. My issue is constipation, and see it in my lower intestines on my belly, making me feel sluggish, I drink more water than I've ever done before, hoping the walking would help. Any suggestions?
I've noticed more mature family members have overtime had an increase in hunger and a reduction in activity level too. This makes a dangerous combination if not proactively managed by the individual
I'm a man. I learn from and enjoy all of Dr Becky videos. Who knows maybe learning more about women it'll help? For example; if you have a lady in your life that doesn't eat the best of foods and her doctor recommends a change, now is a good time for men to do more of the cooking. It's not easy when one eats healthy and one doesn't.
J F Always been skinny, kept the husband at the right weight. Got a job and he worked from home and offered to cook. Results, both of us are now overweight and he is just plain obese, eww! Thank you for this, will start tomorrow
@@TinekeWilliams You're welcome. I hope all goes well for you and your husband. I find it helps to know that eating is an individual thing. That said, it's okay if two people can't eat the same foods, or at the same time. I feel weight loss should be a secondary goal if its even needed (for me it is not .... sensitivity to certain foods is ). One's health; in my opinion, should be the goal. This is the best health insurance.
What about HRT or bio identical hormones...if we are on it /take them, would we have less belly fat since less estrogen is te reason we have more belly fat in the first place? Thank you :)
Intermittent Fasting has been amazing!! It works so well for me - I don’t even get hungry as I thought I initially would. Lost weight and cleansing!! Highly recommend this.
Very informative video. Thank you! You’re straight forward and give a lot of info without the annoying super loud, in-your-face style that many videos now have. Your videos are a pleasure to watch.
I have always been known to have a lovely pear shape..then I turned 50 and so many changes to my shape took place. Now I am an apple with thin legs😔 your video has given me a little boost today. Thank you so much🤗
@@christianlynn2679 I'm doing well, thanks for asking. I've lost 48 lbs thus far😊. I feel great, but my goal is 75 lbs. Intermittent fasting, clean eating and exercise is the combo that's working for me.
@@ReneeRGreen That's Good just Keep it up you are getting there. Sorry Forgive my Manners Am Christian Lynn by the way. Where are you from or What May I call you?
I watched this and then noticed the spelling of your name. This is soooo rare! That’s my husband’s family’s name! And beyond that I have had success with eating like this.
I do that fasting naturally. I’ve never been a picker. I eat when I’m hungry but I eat a good portion, then I’m done. I do not eat after dinner and I don’t eat when I get up because I’m not hungry, it takes around three hours before I’m hungry. I don’t really diet but I try to eat healthy for the most part. I don’t use condiments, I only drink water with lemon and black coffee in the morning. That’s what I naturally do. My problem is, I don’t exercise. I’m 63, 5’6” and weigh 150lbs. I could stand to lose 10 lbs, my bones are not big.
@@ksdavisdesign some people have a larger frame than others. Some are petite and their bones are smaller and they’re more prone to get osteoporosis. There’s different muscle types too.
Thanks so much for this! I turned a half-century old in January. I have gained close to 10 lbs over the past year. I am less active than 5 years ago and less motivated, but I want to try something new. Your suggestions offer some hope. Thank you! ☺️

Thank you for the information, hence I am on low carb diet for the first 4months I lost 10kg. Now for the last 12months no matter what I do cannot lose any more weight. To reach goal weight I need to still lose another 20kg, please assist.
That's more better hearing you it's working out for you. Just after Your morning Walk Take some Vegetables after Your morning Walk. It helps allot. How are you?
I lost my weight when I got ulcer as unable to eat food except bland . Then I lower carb and did if and never got my weight back but taking L thyroxine low dose.
Seems like it was all to the point to me - some videos take a lot longer to explain all of this. Maybe you should check out Cole Robinson ‘Snake Diet’ he gets RIGHT TO THE POINT.
Hi I can't excercise because of back bone, I tried walk at home exercise and pilates but I get extreme pain, I try to eat only apple and an orange for dinner and breakfast at 9 a.m but I gained 2 kilos over the past month and it is spread between my belly and hips.

Hi Ladies can I jump in yawl conversation, since I been on HRT no diet on this planet is helping me. I stopped taking my HRT and I was able to get 10pounds off before I had to go back on the symptoms of hot flashes and mood swings I had to go back on. I just give up I try to still eat low carb but no weight loss
I am taking a tablespoon of coconut oil every day and it is reducing my belly fat. I also do time restricted eating also where I stop eating at 6pm and then eat breakfast at 10 am which is when I take the coconut oil. The time restricted eating has made me feel healthier and did remove what little excess fat I had on the rest of my body but it did not remove the belly fat so I started taking the coconut oil and it is honestly melting away the fat on my belly. It may seem hard to believe but truly it works. Coconut oil also helps me with anxiety, as well as improving hair, skin and nails.
Good! Yes. You are one of the few who understands the biochemical processes involved in gaining or losing weight. It has very little to do with quantities of calories that you eat. It all has to do with hormones, especially Insulin, which has only one function and that is to store fat. So good video. Also add that we need eat more animal fat such as butter or ghee or organic meat with high fat content
Thank you, thank you..I have a huge tummy but I look thin..it is my tummy that is the problem..I am rounded from below my breasts..like a double tummy. I have never bloated before now the last 3 years I bloat very badly. I had a gallbladder removed could this be the cause of my bloating. Also I had a thyriodectomy only left side..so I am on Thyroxine..I have worked hard to stay fairly slim..over the years. I am still 75kg and 173cm tall...I just look ridiculous with big beer barrel.that I am carrying about.. Help..advice please...much appreciated. Australia..
Unfortunately, I stopped intermittent fasting, which I practiced for over a decade, due to severe headaches that once triggered by hunger, will last for up to a week. Now I eat all day long, up till the moment right before bed. I have gained a few pounds, but it is worth the trade-off.
I hear you .... The same with me 🙃 try to eliminate gluten and take some good probiotics like Solgar 40, or similar. Works fine for skinny person with belly fat. Just be patient. 2 months and shall be much better without starving yourself 😉😉
i'm going to begin an intermittent fasting regimen but have 2 questions: 1) I usually have training sesiones early in the morning -- will it be safe to do this while fasting? 2) I'm allergic to avocado, perhaps one of the most satiating healthy fats there is. What can I substitute this with? tks

@Dreamboat, maybe your doctor can help you with that. I fully understand the frustration of no willpower. I'm menopausal and put on 20-30lbs in the last 2 years without realizing it. Now that I've discovered Dr. Becky, I have motivation and lost 10lbs over the last month. It's hard work, but it is coming off. I wish you well on your journey. You can do it!
@Dreamboat Annie Hey there, Dreamboat, I hope you don't worry yourself too much. The most important thing is health. I didn't realize this video (and my comment!) was from two years ago! Well, I've gained most of that weight back but I'm not overly fretting about it. It's nice to be lighter, and I'm definitely going to start on that lower carb road again. I have to be careful though since during the time I lost all that weight, I gained a big, fat kidney stone. Thankfully and almost miraculously, it passed on its own, but my diet is first and foremost for my kidney health. It sounds like you--like most of us--have a very strong HABIT in place. Those are hard to break! I wonder if you can at least replace a late night snack with a low carb food. I'm very much convinced that the higher the carb--and the more processed it is--the more I'm going to crave eating anything... ANYTHING! So, I'd say don't beat yourself up. But I definitely have to have a PLAN ready, one that fits my issues, my body, my life. Keep in touch and let us know how you do! ❤️
This is about weight loss, not losing belly fat. I have no problem losing weight by walking, the problem is that, even when emaciated, I still have excess belly fat.
This is my problem too
Me too. I am short waisted and look pregnant even when thin.
Its your gut health ..look into probiotics.
I am 53 and you MUST start taking prebiotic tablets and enzyme tablet - it's a game changer. The small bit of fat you have you can make look better by lifting weights or doing pilates reformer.
Hi, I am 49, I will be 50 in December. I have no belly fat at all. I am in menapause. I do intermittent fasting, 16 hours of fasting, 8 hours of eating. I also prefer a vegetarian diet. Diet is key. Low carbs, little or no sugar and less dairy. I am lean. Ashwaraganda keeps my stress levels low, apple cider vinegar helps alot and iodine supplements (kelp). I eat avo everyday (good fats). Gluten free is best as it helps to stop me from being bloated. Trust me, it's not difficult when you put your mind to it.
I tell my friends... Stop complaining, you have the ability to take control of your own life.
Well said, Shereen Fester.
I agree 💯
This is good stuff...how do you suppress cravings throughout the day?
Agree with you Shereen...only you can take personal responsibility for your life..if something seems to be broken, there is no excuse to not find & attempt the fix. Never has helpful information been so available to everyone wishing to pursue it.
@@slyfy3421 Once you start eating a more plant base diet and cut out the carbs the cravings disappear as the biology in your gut changes overnight.
Sounds like healthy keto eating plan with intermittent fasting and moderate exercise 😊
Hi Dr. B....thank you so much for the incredible content. In this "everyone is an expert" world of Instagrammers and younger TH-camrs, I appreciate the level of expertise and solid information from an older woman who has "been there, done that". So helpful to those of us over 50---relatable and much-needed!!
She is Really trying helping out other women. Thanks to her allots of women are doing great today. Hello Les. How are you doing!
Going to start this tomorrow. I have gained over 2 stones in last few years. About to turn 50 and really hating on myself. I pray this works 🙏😪
Please be kind & gentle to yourself
At your age her diet plan was my eating plan and always ate what I wanted but work would put the pounds on, so I stepped up the workout all was good and many people have a covid belly due to the lock downs and the fasting is hard,
so I listen to Dr Allan Mandel, 1tb spoon olive oil with half chayane pepper good squeeze plenty of lemon juice fresh and honey 1ts, but he says quarter 1ts .
Motavition Doc . You will not feel as hungry.
Hope this helps also as I am over 60 getting fatter but will get there.
@@truthandlife4101 i wish to God my wife would loose weight.
I did keto diet, lost 80 lbs then lost my gallbladder. My husband did keto diet, lost 70 lbs and lost his gallbladder. There is a correlation
I just found your channel today. I am 55, and had 2 partial knee replacements in 2017. Lack of any decent exercise because of these replacements (it's not like changing a tire, I'll tell you that! I can't squat or crawl anymore) and a poor diet has added 50 lbs. I am 1 week in to my new fitbit. And I am so grateful to get ahold of your channel and the 0,1,2,3 strategy, and I can't wait to dig in! I need to change my bad habits before it's too late! I want to be active and have fun with my grandkids!!!
Wow 😯 Hope you're doing great now. How is your health God Bless you Amen 🙏. She is Really trying helping out other women. Thanks to her allots of women are doing great today. Hello Dear. How are you?
I love your clear and informative videos! Thank you! I love IF and my husband and I have been doing it one day a week for 5 years. I also try to eat within a narrower time window. It helps to have a partner who is on board with me! One benefit I get from IF is knowing that I do have control! So often we get scrambled and use food to comfort. Stay calm, breath and eat your greens!
What's with the facial hair on chin and lip at 50 ugh!!! What to do?? Thanks Dr 🌸😄🌸😄
Lisa Lee try dermablading. You can do this at home yourself. Ive use to go every three weeks religiously to have it done but since the quarantine I ordered the blades from sephora and do them myself now.

Hello Margaret
Just yesterday I was saying to myself, how glad I am, that I got my carb consumption reduced over a year ago. Even during stressful times now, I make much better choices. I was able to lose the 20 pounds, that I put on before and during menopause. Now I am 55 and have the strategies in place, that I need to maintain a healthy weight and live a better life. And all of this I learned on the internet, not from my actual doctor. Thanks to you, Dr Becky and other TH-cam channels that provide so much helpful information!
f
Dr. Becky and Dr. Berg both have great TH-cam videos. Hmmm I wonder if they have ever met?
Does HRT help to lose belly fat? I wouldn’t take it just for this reason but I’m curious if taking estrogen actually does make a difference which would prove that the reason we gain after menopause is the lack of estrogen.
I don't think so because I'm on HRT for 3 years now (I'm 58) and it only got worse but can't do without because of the horrible hot flashes 24/7
My diet has consisted with all you mentioned for over 20yrs. And the past year my belly has gotten out of control. I changed my diet after learning of adrenal fatigue which I know western medicine doesn’t recognized. I walk for exercise because heavy exercise makes me tank… went vegan 8 months and I don’t do dairy. I eat btwn 10a -7am which is mostly just one meal or homemade vegetable juices..heaviest meal around 2pm…Not sure what else to do. The belly is out of control. You mentioned adrenals and that all I configure is the issue.
Yes I’m 56 now and fealing terrible coz of my menopause I eat healthy
Try and excersise as have fybromyalgia.
Yes so true hate how I look now .
Feal so uncomfortable 🥵
Thankyou for this .
DONT GIVE UP If that’s you in the thumbnail you look absolutely fab! Xx
Stop all process foods
No gluten no bread
Keep a food diary
1/2 u plate with dark greens
you.look.great xx I'm.46 soon and I'm a size 16 after being a size 12 most my life its depressing
Thanks for the great video, Dr. Becky! I appreciate your science-backed recommendations.
Hello
I am 55 years old. I walk 3-5 miles every day with my husband and father. I eat very little. Lots of salads. I`m always complaining because I feel bloated and fat after I eat. I use to go to the gym and felt so much better then than I do now. I`m sure it`s because I did a variety of different exercises including weights. I have weights at home and might try doing some in the evening time a few days week. I will say since I have hit menopause the belly fat is there. And I hate it! Thanks for the tips!
Hello Wendy
I have not eaten ANYTHING sweet in 25 years. That includes anything sweetened with any type of sweetener, keto or not. One of the major problems with dieting is the people don't really diet; they still eat forbidden foods and wonder why they gain weight. May as well learn to LOVE your fat belly.
Great summary of really works Dr 👍 insuline resistance is the no 1 problem for women after 40. The other tip that works wonders is : no gluten. This is painful. Yes. Living without gluten is hard. Most of pleasure and comfort foods are loaded with gluten. We love it, but this is really toxic to us at that age 🥺 Keep away from it as much as you can. Cutting on gluten intake reduces inflamation and reduces fat cells like magic. Good luck Ladies! ✊
Keto is too unrealistic to maintain I was on it , then ya go off one day and gain it all back - just low carb diet and IF
it gets harder to lose weight as you age. That being said, my mother lost over 50 pounds on keto and she is in her 70s. It can be done so don't let age be a barrier.
I find your advice very useful as I’m going tthrough menapose myself
Thank you fr the advice
It's Good hearing your are getting better. Hope you're taking good care of yourself....
Hi Dr am 43 yrs since my delivery had a big belly and I consult a Dr he told me that its bloating and stress, even I control my foods have exercises I dont loose to much weight, am 95 kg and am vegetarian. Plzz if u can help me am tired bcoz I have heavy legs nd people comments my own dear once ,stressed me more.
I have not taken HRT but I wonder if taking it now would help me get leaner. I have been exercising since my teens and always exercised regularly but I had a heart attack 08-2018 and that slowed my exercise routine for a few months but I have tried to go back to exercing 6 days a week using the Tony Horton method Beach Body which had helped me before. My cardiologist says coconut oil is unhealthy so I don't use it anymore (I used it very little anyway). I am not a big eater, love veg and high fiber foods, don't like fried foods, don't have soft drinks just Hibiscus and black tea (cold). I do love chocolate high in cacao content 70+ this is my weakness. Should I try that powder HRT advertised on TV, to kick start the hormone levels in my body?
Regarding hibiscus tea, is there any concern with arsenic or chemicals when buying the tea? Wondering if you have a recommended brand or a country of origin to look for (or avoid). Thanks!
I've been losing weight from the top down. My face is thinner, my neck and shoulders thinner, arms getting a bit thinner. I've lost fat from my back and from my thighs. Upper abdomen, thinner. But my belly and lower abdomen have not lost. I started with a huge belly hangover, and it is still just as huge. The problem is extra skin. I am hoping to lose this extra skin through fasting and autophagy, but it seems all the fat has to go first. I have lost eighty pounds but have another eighty pounds to go. And now I have stalled, haven't lost a pound for a month. I'm going up and down and up and down the same three pounds for a whole month.
This could have been written by me. This is exactly my story. The weight is going from the top down. Really not seeing much change at the lower abdomen.
I believe diet is key: 80% diet and 20% physical fitness works to help with the weight gain also the type of diet helps. What many women fail to also realize, childbirth later in life also contributes as well as the epidural which is pumped into our bodies thus atrophying our muscle tissue. Muscle is what burns fat. When your abdominal muscles have lost elasticity along with the medicinal epidural, can wreck havoc on the female form and it varies case by case.
That's Through
Allot of people don't think so as well. Thanks to her allots of women are doing great today. Hello Dear. How are you?
i am vegetarian (egg eater).. can you guide on low carb food for vegetarian.
Sister, you are a blessing 😌
Amen 🙌 to that. Hello Susan. How are you?
I had a big belly. Then I lost weight. Now my belly looks like an octopus head.
😩🤦♀️🥺 Yea I never had weight issues in my life til menopause. Now I feel like a busted can of biscuits😣😭
I've always needed explanations of "why" something is, rather than just accepting a comment. You are great! You explained WHY fats are important to our hormones. I had heard that before but no explanation as to why so I had a hard time accepting or understanding it. I have learned so much from your details-thank you Dr!
Thanks to her. She is Really trying helping out other women. Thanks to her allots of women are doing great today. Hello Sattice. How are you?
Thank you so very much. I'm going to watch this video 3 or 4 times to really get in my brain. And the PDF's are very helpful. ❤❤❤
I have a background in Foods and Nutrition and I can say your video has cut cut through all the poproganda around diets. More than any other time in history we are eating more sugar and processed fats that are destroying our health. It is hard to change bad habits especially when it ismarketed everywhere and know it is all about money and profits. Learn the truth and start with small changes it will make a difference.
I really needed this at this time of life. Thanks
I got rid of mine quick by intermittent fasting and low carbs. I use a calorie counter, it shows how many carbs are in each type of food and I keep my carbs around 70. It works for me. 😃
Am 49 and depressing I don’t go out any more ..Where can I get the calorie count?
I'll be 38 in April and had my ovaries removed at 15yrs old so been in menopause most of my life. Belly fat is my problem. I want to lose 15lbs. Intermittent fasting worked for a bit but thought it might be working against me. I've heard that if you're in menopause you should not go without eating more than 4 hours during your awake. Is that true in your opinion? Might try again. Used to fast for 16ish hours a day.
dr. Becky I have a question. When you say fast for 4 weeks, daughters that mean only water?
No, she means 4 weeks of intermittent fasting.
Thank you so much and of course that makes sense. Happy Easter and may God bless you.
I don't understand because I'm 5.6 tall and 133 Ibs and I have belly fat ? I don't really want to lose weight but I do want to get rid of the belly fat so what to do?
Dr. Becky, I'm doing the IF, try to stay on a keto diet, try to eat some vegetables, I do sauerkraut, pickled beets, and getting back into walking now that the weather is better. My issue is constipation, and see it in my lower intestines on my belly, making me feel sluggish, I drink more water than I've ever done before, hoping the walking would help. Any suggestions?
Magnesium will help with constipation.
Try Natural Calm at bedtime, but start slowly!
I wish y’all would stop telling people that they need dairy and animal products to be healthy
My belly fat started at 14 years old not 59.
I have IBD and can’t eat high fiber foods including beans and need to limit my fat intake. Any suggestions?
Dsnrbec do you have IBS?
Sheila Lewis-Lorum I’ve been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis and, unfortunately, the things I best tolerate are carbs 😕
I've noticed more mature family members have overtime had an increase in hunger and a reduction in activity level too. This makes a dangerous combination if not proactively managed by the individual
Such a great presenter. Calm and credible. Love her videos
Can you call it, muffin top? Yes, it sounds much sweeter.🍰❤️
It's not keto muffin top😂
Mam, tk care in time of corona, also one video to boost immunity if possible n corona myths
I'm a man. I learn from and enjoy all of Dr Becky videos. Who knows maybe learning more about women it'll help? For example; if you have a lady in your life that doesn't eat the best of foods and her doctor recommends a change, now is a good time for men to do more of the cooking. It's not easy when one eats healthy and one doesn't.
J F Always been skinny, kept the husband at the right weight. Got a job and he worked from home and offered to cook. Results, both of us are now overweight and he is just plain obese, eww! Thank you for this, will start tomorrow
@@TinekeWilliams You're welcome. I hope all goes well for you and your husband. I find it helps to know that eating is an individual thing. That said, it's okay if two people can't eat the same foods, or at the same time. I feel weight loss should be a secondary goal if its even needed (for me it is not .... sensitivity to certain foods is ). One's health; in my opinion, should be the goal. This is the best health insurance.
Another wonderful video Dr Becky, thank you kindly.
What about HRT or bio identical hormones...if we are on it /take them, would we have less belly fat since less estrogen is te reason we have more belly fat in the first place? Thank you :)
Intermittent Fasting has been amazing!! It works so well for me - I don’t even get hungry as I thought I initially would. Lost weight and cleansing!! Highly recommend this.

Do you think taking HRT makes abdominal fat worse? I've read it's supposed to make it better.

I watched this and then noticed the spelling of your name. This is soooo rare! That’s my husband’s family’s name! And beyond that I have had success with eating like this.
It's refreshing to get knowledge without a "sales pitch". Thank you Dr. Gillaspy!
I do that fasting naturally. I’ve never been a picker. I eat when I’m hungry but I eat a good portion, then I’m done. I do not eat after dinner and I don’t eat when I get up because I’m not hungry, it takes around three hours before I’m hungry. I don’t really diet but I try to eat healthy for the most part. I don’t use condiments, I only drink water with lemon and black coffee in the morning. That’s what I naturally do. My problem is, I don’t exercise. I’m 63, 5’6” and weigh 150lbs. I could stand to lose 10 lbs, my bones are not big.
No such thing as ""big bones""!
@@ksdavisdesign some people have a larger frame than others. Some are petite and their bones are smaller and they’re more prone to get osteoporosis. There’s different muscle types too.
Thanks so much for this! I turned a half-century old in January. I have gained close to 10 lbs over the past year. I am less active than 5 years ago and less motivated, but I want to try something new. Your suggestions offer some hope. Thank you! ☺️

Thank you for the information, hence I am on low carb diet for the first 4months I lost 10kg. Now for the last 12months no matter what I do cannot lose any more weight.
To reach goal weight I need to still lose another 20kg, please assist.
That's more better hearing you it's working out for you. Just after Your morning Walk Take some Vegetables after Your morning Walk. It helps allot. How are you?
I lost my weight when I got ulcer as unable to eat food except bland . Then I lower carb and did if and never got my weight back but taking L thyroxine low dose.
Thank you very much for this it’s the most helpful and supportive guide I have seen so far 😊👍🏻
It would be good for me if you got RIGHT TO THE POINT. Dragging this on only frustrates me.
Seems like it was all to the point to me - some videos take a lot longer to explain all of this. Maybe you should check out Cole Robinson ‘Snake Diet’ he gets RIGHT TO THE POINT.
Hi I can't excercise because of back bone, I tried walk at home exercise and pilates but I get extreme pain, I try to eat only apple and an orange for dinner and breakfast at 9 a.m but I gained 2 kilos over the past month and it is spread between my belly and hips. I hate looking at myself. I always hated being fat and now I'm getting there. By the way I am 58 yrs old.
That is not sustainable for health. Try Keto, or at least low carb. You need fat in your diet!
I wanna be your patient...... - In Norway doctors dont have a big clue about diets.. Even people who have got diabetes, dont get the right advices..

How does HRT effect all of this as it replaces estrogen.
sabastie I have the same question! Wish she would address this and the fact that some of us have no ovaries.
Hi Ladies can I jump in yawl conversation, since I been on HRT no diet on this planet is helping me. I stopped taking my HRT and I was able to get 10pounds off before I had to go back on the symptoms of hot flashes and mood swings I had to go back on. I just give up I try to still eat low carb but no weight loss
I’m learning about intermediate fasting. Is there an app you recommend to help keep track?
DGEBA weight loss behavior at TGA experiment ?
I am taking a tablespoon of coconut oil every day and it is reducing my belly fat. I also do time restricted eating also where I stop eating at 6pm and then eat breakfast at 10 am which is when I take the coconut oil. The time restricted eating has made me feel healthier and did remove what little excess fat I had on the rest of my body but it did not remove the belly fat so I started taking the coconut oil and it is honestly melting away the fat on my belly. It may seem hard to believe but truly it works. Coconut oil also helps me with anxiety, as well as improving hair, skin and nails.
How old are you? Is it still working?
Good! Yes. You are one of the few who understands the biochemical processes involved in gaining or losing weight. It has very little to do with quantities of calories that you eat. It all has to do with hormones, especially Insulin, which has only one function and that is to store fat. So good video. Also add that we need eat more animal fat such as butter or ghee or organic meat with high fat content
Good information. Things are so different now from 25 years ago. This a good place to start.
For sure. Hello Betty. How are you?
Thank you, thank you..I have a huge tummy but I look thin..it is my tummy that is the problem..I am rounded from below my breasts..like a double tummy.
I have never bloated before now the last 3 years I bloat very badly.
I had a gallbladder removed could this be the cause of my bloating.
Also I had a thyriodectomy only left side..so I am on Thyroxine..I have worked hard to stay fairly slim..over the years.
I am still 75kg and 173cm tall...I just look ridiculous with big beer barrel.that I am carrying about..
Help..advice please...much appreciated.

Intermittent fasting as a T2D while on SUs seems risky?
Unfortunately, I stopped intermittent fasting, which I practiced for over a decade, due to severe headaches that once triggered by hunger, will last for up to a week. Now I eat all day long, up till the moment right before bed. I have gained a few pounds, but it is worth the trade-off.
I hear you .... The same with me 🙃 try to eliminate gluten and take some good probiotics like Solgar 40, or similar. Works fine for skinny person with belly fat. Just be patient. 2 months and shall be much better without starving yourself 😉😉
i'm going to begin an intermittent fasting regimen but have 2 questions: 1) I usually have training sesiones early in the morning -- will it be safe to do this while fasting?
2) I'm allergic to avocado, perhaps one of the most satiating healthy fats there is. What can I substitute this with? tks
Wow that Would be A lot to take in Through the Fasting. Let me say you can Take in a little vegetables During The fasting perhaps. That's more better in think. She is Really trying helping out other women. Thanks to her allots of women are doing great today. Hello Rosie. How are you?
