    I'm Bill, and I think you guys rock. I'm 58 years old, 6'4" tall,and have been doing some form of Keto for about a year. I started at 374 pounds , but as of today have lost 152 pounds. Cleared up my type 2 diabetes, lymphoma, and lowered my high blood pressure. Thank you for your videos. They've helped with my new lifestyle and realize I can eat what I refer to as normal now. I watch the issues you experience and see myself having a lot of the same issues.
    I look forward to reading your book. Please keep going. You inspire many of us trying to get healthy.

      @@MaineCzar Wow! So proud of you, Bill!
      I’ve been keto since 2017 and it’s a game changer, without a doubt. Since starting keto, I’ve also had humongous success with incorporating intermittent fasting.
      I started the typical 16:8 protocol and for a few years now, I’ve been doing OMAD aka,
      one meal a day. I’ve been so fat adapted for years now that I could *easily* go a full couple-few days without eating. And water only during all my fasting windows.
      It’s really become a therapeutic lifestyle. Keeps cancer & other diseases away 💪🏽😃

    Two words from my Orthopedist in May of 2021: "You're doomed". Yes, that's what he said after he looked at the X-ray of my right hip. He started talking about gastric bypass and consulting with a weight clinic. I told him I'd see him in 3 months and that I'd work it myself. When I was a kid growing up in the 60s/70s I was a wrestler. At the time, I didn't realize it, but my mom had me on a keto regimen. She called it a boxer's diet. I knew if I applied the principals of keto (it's all about the biochemistry), I'd be back in the zone.
    So, now it's November 9. 2021 and I'm down 56.2 lbs. and not looking back. I've got another 70 to go, but it's been a nice gradual loss and I'm over the carbs. I feel so much better and all my metabolic numbers are incredible.
    It's never too late. Both of you are inspiring. Thanks for sharing your story!

      ​@@John5-24-life Wishing you the best on your journey. Do yourself one favor however and watch Thomas Delauer's videos on varying fast starts and stops because with caloric deficit creates conditions and our bodies will adjust, causing us to "need" even lower intake. I cannot remember tge term but essentially with the same continuous schedule the body will adapt making it even harder to lose weight. When you vary your fasting period say every few weeks, it tricks the body out of reading your rhythm. Switching it up is like a quarterback sneak ant it tricks your metabolism into not adapting. Again, best wishes!

      I’m 66 also and was starting to be successful on keto when I got covid. I think it messed up my metabolism. I’m not giving up. I’ve been pretty disciplined. I’m going to add in more exercise and see if that doesn’t motivate the weight loss. My husband and I are intermittent fasting and doing two meals a day. Maybe we need to do OMAD. I strongly believe that the reason we sailed through covid was because of eating keto.

    I’ve been doing keto for three and a half years now, and I second that it is a lifestyle and not a diet. Every time I think “that’s it, I’m bored, I want (insert carby food here), I’m quitting” I think of steak and butter and bacon, being able to breath easier and having a flatter tummy. Because every time I eat carbs I get short of breath by the end of the day, and I get bloated. And then I think “I can never give up being keto, it’s a way of life now”.

    I told her “Well of course he told you that bc he wants you to remain SICK so he can keep using you to make $$$$ off of you!!!”

    I agree with your comment about not announcing to the world that you were going keto. In my case, I was really surprised at the people who went out of their way to sabotage my success. Additionally, I was a bit surprised when these same people made no comment at all about the slimmer me. I’m 5’1” and went from 132 pounds to 117 lbs in about 8 weeks. I went from a size 10 to a size 4. Most of my adult life I weighed right at 100 pounds, so I’m pretty sure it was noticeable.

Then we went on vacation, came back and went right into the holidays and then 2020 hit. Ugh!! Excuses but it has taken me all this time to get back on and it has now been almost the hardest thing I've done. But I am back and I am here for the long haul. Every journey is different but even with my huge detour I have never really given up because I know it works and I have never felt better than when I was on keto.

    I totally agree with your idea of not telling anyone. People will either try to sabotage you because they are jealous, or they will watch what you eat in hope of criticizing you - also because they are jealous. I have lost 42 pounds so far but I still have a l-o-n-g way to go. No one except my doctor and one friend know. No one will find out until the end of spring / beginning of summer when (we all hope) we can start going out again and I won't be wearing a bulky jacket. And when people ask how I (or you) lost the weight, the only answer to give is "diet and exercise" with no more details. I don't want to hear a lot of uninformed opinions keto and intermittent fasting.

I work in the cheese department in a grocery store and they make a lot of different cheese shreds. I never realized they have more carbs than if I shred it myself, even though I know they put “anticaking” stuff onto keep it from sticking together. I’ve been on a platoe for a couple months (why I watched this video, I’m a subscriber) and since my birthday I’ve gained 5lbs! I ate at Mexican restaurants twice for birthday and thought it was salt but it didn’t vanish and it’s been a week. So I’m gonna start not being lazy and buy brick cheese from now on! Thanks

    Pork Rinds are a trigger food for me. Even though they are Keto, I'll eat the whole bag in one go. Which isn't a healthy thing to do for anyone. Too many calories which stalls my weight loss.

    Ok Several things. I have done Keto off and on since 2015. The thing I struggle with is Life Happens. I can be doing great, then boom something happens and throws me for a loop and I end up sabatoging myself. I am definitely an addict when it comes to carbs and sugar. I have found if I have one thing, then it is another so on and so on. This is something I have to work out for myself, I know that. And definitely telling people I am starting back on my Keto, man the negativity. This time I am going to keep to myself and just do it. Thank you for your videos and the support you give to us all. Keep up the good work. Oh yea I love that Menu you put on your refrigerator, that is really cool. I am a crafter and I am going to make that.

  • @jbeargrr

    I've had to alter my diet drastically a few times. First time was severe food allergies. There's a 4 year regimen to get past food allergies, and that's what I did. It doesn't work for everyone, but it did for me. I was allergic to all kinds of things. Wheat, cow's milk, chicken eggs, soy, peanuts, oats, were the main things, but there was a lot more. I was ok with rice and corn, but basically, I had to learn to cook all over again.
    Next was diabetes. Self explanatory. Another major change.
    Then Alphagal, I couldn't have any mammalian meats. I was ok with dairy. Cheese was tricky, it was only ok if it was made with vegetable rennet. I was already easing into keto, but that restriction made it harder. After a few years, I finally tried acupuncture. That worked, I can eat red meat again.
    After all of that, just following keto, and I'm similar to you gals, I call it keto-ish. I'm more concerned with net carbs than whether it has wheat gluten or whatever. I have my own list of things I don't want to eat, but mostly I'm "dirty lazy keto."
    I've had some set backs, but overall I've gone from 335 lbs to 265 lbs. I still have a long way to go, but I'm confident that I can do it. Keto is really the only thing that has worked for me.
    You two are amazing, and a great inspiration. Keep it up, love ya!

    I'm probably different from a lot of people, (except other procrastinators perhaps), but if I try to lose for a certain event I will undermine myself every time. "I have 6 months, that's only a half a pound a week, Ok, I have five months, only a pound a week " etc. Finally, "oh great, I'd have to lose 25 lbs by next week". I just have to stay the course because there's always going to be something coming up. I have a 50 yr HS reunion in about a month & a half & I just can't let myself think about how many lbs. I want to lose before then. It's a lifestyle not a diet is right! And, I just want to be healthy, not become diabetic like so many in my family, or the high blood pressure. (Well, I do want to be slim again.) By the way, it's just dumb luck if I got the math right on how many lbs per week. But, you get the idea, right?

    I totally agree with the accountability aspect. So many misconceptions about what Keto is. I personally do better to just do my thing. The only people I tell is my family so they won’t be making brownies while I’m home. Can’t clean out my pantry due to the rest of my family. But they are respectful of my efforts and wait til I’m at work to make stuff that would be a challenge to smell. My willpower is good after the first week and I can walk by fresh cookies or brownies without a problem. But no longer do I tell friends or coworkers. At. All.

    Your half & half story reminded me about adding a water enhancer to my water. I thought it was okay because most don't have any calories. I scanned it with my app and, depending on the flavor, there is 1 to 2 carbs per teaspoon. I don't add that much each time but it adds up over the course of the day. Thank you.

My husband, he doesn't approve and thinks I am stupid, but this is my life and I have to live it. Oh, my husband said many have died on this. the dietician i went to, was useless, she said no to keto, all she told me was to follow the Canada Food Guide. Well that doesn't do much when I am a carbaholic.

    Biggest mistake when doing keto. Not stopping drinking. Technically you can drink on Keto (with diet mixers, low carb beer, seltzer, etc) but it's slows down your weight loss and is empty calories that will hinder you. If you're not losing weight, stop drinking
