I first started keto about 4+ years ago and never quite had the results I wanted (weight loss). I realize now that I fell into the trap of high fat moderate protein and too many fat bombs, bullet proof coffee and baking with almond flour. 5 months ago I started to listen to you on Carnivore lifestyle and also decided to try PSMF 2 to 3 days a week. WOW at 61 and post menopausal in five months I have dropped 35 lbs ( way more than with my prior keto methods) . I also have lost many inches and feel great and fit into those jeans that were in the back of my closet. I feel fantastic physically and mentally and look forward to the next 5 months and beyond. Thank you Maria, you rock.😊
How are you dealing with hunger those first few PSMF days? I have trouble getting in more than one day a week of PSMF because of it. I am disciplined but I get so dizzy. Some days it's more doable than others.
Oh my goodness when i think of all the baked goods i made with almond flour i could cry. So i started carnivore 5 weeks ago to try to reverse T2. It's working! However this 80 lbs overweight 60 yr old woman lost only 2 lbs in that 5 weeks. Absolutely zero weight loss on keto for 2 yrs. Talk about frustrating! All the different carnivore influencers say different things. Eat more fat to lose weight, eat less fat fat to lose weight...eat more protein, eat less protein, do IF, dont do IF. "Get in my group and pay $10 a month! ". I'll be honest i dont know who to believe any more and i dont have extra cash to blow on advice that's just going to confuse me more! I NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT!! love your adoption story Maria. We have 3 bio daughters and added to our family with a beautiful daughter from China. All 4 are precious gifts from God!❤
The struggle is real trying to lose a significant amount of weight! I did lose some about half of what I want to lose but been on a very long weight loss stall now. The things I didn't before are no longer working. You're right it's confusing trying to figure out who to listen to to get results.
Just watch this, follow our advise (can use our free macro calculator below) and it will work. No confusion needed. :) th-cam.com/video/OWukXR3F8II/w-d-xo.html mariamindbodyhealth.com/calculator/
THANK you Maria! Did your calculator and going to follow your advice! Thank you for caring enough to reply! How many PSMF days per week would you recommend for faster weight loss. Or maybe every other day? Thanks again!
Nuts also have a lot of oxalates…. Keto 6 years now. Never did do high fat, focused on low carbs and moderate protein, did well. Now I was listening to Ted Naiman and Don Layman and Gabriel Lyons and know the importance of high protein. You put it all together for me, ty….
Awww….I would love to talk to you in person! 🥹You are so intelligent, have a wealth of information, down to earth, and so sweet! ❤ I wish I would have found your channel from the beginning!

Anti-aging things that help us is a big interest of mine as well. I don’t think you’re too small! I would love to be as physically fit as you! 💪
I know you're not big on coffee, but I use instant coffee in my face cream, its great for the sun kissed look, I take a few ounces of caster oil and add instant coffee and a small amount of hot water to desolve it, I add a few drops of fenugreek oil for smell and shake it everytime I use it, sometime I put it on a few times a day, I'm 61 and told I look way younger.
While my family was in Medford on Monday for our monthly chiropractic visit, we ventured to the thrift store. Seeing the coffee shop and library on the way, made your story come full circle! Some of your books I pick up from the library even come from Medford. 🎉 Thank you for pursuing your dreams and for sharing your humble beginnings!
Just found you so starting my Keto Journey tomorrow. I will definitely use your PSMF recipes! How long did it take you to lose the majority of your weight?
I am definitely interested in any anti-aging tips that you have for hair, & skin, and even teeth whitening since white teeth look younger. What products do you use?. would love to see a video on them since you travel the world and experiment with things that I can/have not. I appreciate you sharing your personal experiences at looking and feeling younger. PLEASE DO!
Aloha! Thank you, Maria! Love seeing you in the sun on the sand! 8 weeks Carnivore...learning as much as I can. The information you shared this morning is very helpful!
Thank you for this video. I love nuts and have them in my Amazon cart. Well, after listening to your message the nuts are getting ditched😊 Have a great day!
Hi maria! I've been using tretanoin for yeats with great results. Whats your thoughts on vit A toxicity? I heard from some naturopath's that this can happen. I still use it and dont want to stop.
You are awesome!! Thank you for continuing to help others. I have been carnivore since last Oct & am not losing weight. But it is all starting to make sense since I’m watching your videos. Just bought your book. I’ve followed Dr B but it didn’t answer all my questions.
Maria your teeth are so beautiful. I have recovered from a lengthy illness but my teeth really suffered. Have you had any crowns or veneers done? Would you be have someone you would recommend? I'm so worried to spend so much money and for it to not work out. Thank you for all you do!!
Thank you, Maria. I enjoy all of your videos and would love to hear more on anti-aging and skin care. I’m also thinking about joining your group because I’m having trouble staying on track.
Hi Maria, I have 10 of your cookbooks and just love them!! I want to get the other 4 PSMF ebooks plus the other 2 carnivore books. I am in Canada it is a little pricey so I am saving up...almost there I can't wait lol!! Love all you do for us thank you so much! ❤
I know peanuts are legumes, not really nuts, but Im addicted! I know it’s my weight loss downfall 😓. Other than that, my diet is pretty perfect. Plenty of protein, healthy fats, some low carb veggies.
Thanks Maria! I get so inspired listening to you ❣ I must make those PSMF Cinnamon Rolls!!! I also want to buy myself a Red Light Face Mask when I get my bonus in July. What moisturiser do you use? Your skin is looking so healthy and glowing! The sun can be dangerous, especially around midday, so yes wear sunblock. Question: Carnivores say the sun is good for you?? I'm sure it is in moderation, that's logical. LOVE your work and talks that you and Craig do. Thank You!!!
That's great you're clued up about plant toxins. I also don't have almonds and the like. I'm mostly carnivore but coffee would be the hardest thing for me to cut out. I'm going to cut out dairy.
Hi maria!appreciate your knowledge and wisdom. Being in Australia we have very limited access to Allulose. (purchasing from overseas sources.) it is super expensive and they all say on the labels although can bedrived from figs and maple syrup they are indeed factually derived from non gmo corn. Isnt this pretty much what high fructose corn syrup is??and its bad??
Allulose once produced is nothing like what it was derived from. It is completely safe and zero glycemic. Unless you have an allergy to what it was derived from there is nothing to worry about 🙏
Do you have a recipe for homemade chocolate electrolytes? I want to use redmans salt and LMNT is just sodium chloride and sooo expensive! I just bought your Keto and PSMF books!
I use castor oil on my face. I’m 65 and people are amazed because I have no wrinkles. I’m not losing weight and have been keto/carnivore for 1.5 months. Kind of discouraged.
Thanks for subbing! You have to look at overall symptoms and rule out other root causes. You can also take a test like this one: www.greatplainslaboratory.com/gplmycotox
Love your story, Maria. New here on your channel. How scary to be diagnosed by your family doctor @ 16 with PTOS & be told you couldn't have children. & sent home with 3 Rxes that were not medically appropriate & your adolescent self did not want to take. I'm so sorry. TY:" higher ketones do not result in weight loss." I'm grateful for your insights. I eat lots of protein, and less fat. I read all ingredients & labels stay away from seed oils, stay away from nuts. I understand that you exercise, but not @ 5AM; you love travel, you're sleeping well. Hmmm: using red lights, lasers to reverse ageing process. Wd be happy 2 hear about your trip 2 Korea & the cool laser treatments.
Wow I’m in my 60s and I gained weight a became diabetic eating as much fatty meat as I wanted. Now eating 1gr protein per kilogram of ideal body weight. Glucose is perfect.
Dear Maria, I would love to eat beef are lam etc. , i didnt eat meat for 35 years because I didnt like it. Now i try to do the eat meat method,the carnivore method, but yeke🙈 I eat chicken , pork , turkey and thats it ,for 4 days now. If i try beef it makes me feel puke. If i chew on it it taste bad and I spit it out. My mouth want chew it. Same with lam game etc. …thats why a stopped eating meat in the first place in my early twentys. Because it was a struggle to chew on beef, red meat. ( good beef from local farmer)Im in menopause now and to fat, need to lose weight in a healty way. I want give up. But I dont know how to eat beef game are lam,because the taste is so bad for me, while pork tast better, , i like it. I like chicken turky to chew on. But only 100 grams and then the resentence comes in my mouth, and my jaw refuses to chew. I know its weird but ,i cant make my tast yummie for meat. I never could. Do you have some tips how to learn to eat meat. Thanx. Greetings from the Netherlands Ps I had a tick bite in my youth and since then I struggle to eat meat. My mother gave the tick bite the blame for not eating meat.
@@MariaEmmerich im going to try to eat all the meats , but not the red ones, there is no other way to get healty and fit with vegtables and fruit and grains. Thanx for the tip. Greetings feom a fan in the Netherlands.
The dermatology industry is the same as the food with the lies. I do ivory soap and restore the moisture with castor oil. I use castor oil twice day, lightly under makeup and then after I clean at night. I haven't aged in five years and people always comment about my skin, I also use it on my neck, because we age there worse and chest, arms. I also make a toner from witch hazel, and essential oils from eden gardens called skin love, that smells amazing. Castor oil also helps with sun spots, age spots, wrinkles and pores.
I bought pork rinds that only listed “pork rinds” as an ingredient. I called the company to inquire what oil they were fried in and they couldn’t even tell me😂
Ow Maria you are looking very young , dont worry to much. You look in your twentys. Take that in your pocket and be happy about your body and face . It is fine🤩😍its the age , when you turn in 40 you want to go back,its normal most woman go trough this face. Accept it and move on. Let go. Your so good looking🥰

What is PSMF?
@@wilsclanmom PSMF = protein sparing modified fast……..Maria has more info on her website about it including recipes
That's amazing! Way to go!
How are you dealing with hunger those first few PSMF days? I have trouble getting in more than one day a week of PSMF because of it. I am disciplined but I get so dizzy. Some days it's more doable than others.
@@livechilllife I honestly have no problem with hunger on PSMF days because I eat enough lean protein which fills me up and keeps me satisfied
