Also, I have been swimming as my exercise, and am putting in one mile to begin with, then doing 5 X 100 meter sprints after the mile, to try to get some HIT in; is that the correct approach?

      Dear Dr. Ekberg, thank you so much for this extremely clear and thorough discussion of a very complex matter. No one, and I do mean no one, explains these important concepts better than you do. You are definitely at the top of my long list of CZcams influencers regarding all aspects of physical health and wellness!
      And today, I am especially grateful for your mention of how cortisol leads to a craving for carbs. I have a major problem w inescapable stress & consequent sleep deprivation that i believe is preventing me from losing weight. And now, thanks to you, I realize that every time I find myself desiring carbs again, despite my nearly eliminating them for months now, it is merely an indication that my cortisol is up. And so, per your suggestion, I will turn to meditation instead of Stevia at these unexpected times, lol, and perhaps I will finally find a solution there.
      So thank you again, so much, and I wish many blessings and blue skies to you and yours. And also, congrats on the anticipated expansion of your practice and reach. I live in North Carolina, literally within a days drive away, so perhaps we will meet in person someday.🤞

    I started IF and OMAD with a Keto diet Dec. 29th for health reasons. Not only has my health improved to the point I’m no longer on medications that I believe were killing me, I’ve lost 50 lbs! What’s amazing is that I’m 82 years old! I have my life back. I started my journey at 207 lbs. and my current weight is 157 lbs. I’m 5’7” tall. If I’d had this information earlier in life, what a difference it would have made.

      I think this statement is great and really makes a lot of common sense. I'm one of those people you are talking about. I have hereditary high cholesterol and Some of this "go ahead and eat red meat" diet advice is dangerous for people like me. My LDL is 337. My triglycerides are sky high. There is no red meat in my life and there can never be again. If I'm gonna have a higher fat diet, It's gotta be sourced from fish, olive oil and nuts. Complex carbs are good for me. I have to eat oatmeal to get the cholesterol down. As you said, everyone is different. Some people can eat steak every day and have low cholesterol.

All through diet changes so far, intermittent fasting getting close to OMAD and greatly reduced carb intake. NO sugar, no bread, extremely reduced carbs....so far this is very sustainable and I am stilling learning and adapting. As I lose more weight I will include more daily walking exercise and fasting for 3-4 days at least once per month. Feeling 100% better physically and mentally, and I will continue on this path.

    I have been doing intermitted fasting for 6 weeks now. Today I broke my 40 hour fast. So far I lost 17 pounds. Your videos are my motivation, education and inspiration. I watch them every day and repeat many especially autophagy. My goal is 120. I started at 191.2. I think I am/was insulin resistant. I am such a pastry girl. Croissants are my weakness. But I keep watching you to stay strong. THANK YOU! I want to reach my goal by December! Staying in ketosis as much as possible. I have a keto mojo and I check my glucose and ketons numerous times every day. I learn so much from you. THANK YOU so much!
    Oh and btw I measured my ketons glucose before I broke my 40 hour fast it was 61mg/dl glucose (the lowest since I started 6 weeks ago) my ketons were 4.3 mmol/l (also the lowest) GKI 0.7
    My measurements 1.5 hours after eating a generous egg white omelet with fresh mushrooms, green onions and about 3 cups of chopped green mixed salad without any dressing. I only used MCT oil to fry the omelet and mushrooms. I measured glucose 85 mg/dl ketons 5.0 mmol/L GKI 0.9

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    00:00 🏋️ *Understanding effective strategies to lose belly fat is crucial amidst conflicting information on diet and exercise.*
    01:20 🍽️ *The body burns fat reserves only when it's necessary due to a fuel deficit, like when more energy is consumed than used up.*
    02:14 🚴 *Creating conditions for fat burning involves managing energy needs, avoiding increased appetite, and ensuring sustainability for long-term results.*
    04:03 🥗 *Balancing energy expenditure through various physical activities while controlling insulin resistance and stress levels is vital for effective fat burning.*
    05:25 ⚖️ *High insulin levels due to stress or carb dependence hinder fat burning, making it crucial to manage stress and reduce dependency on carbohydrates for effective weight loss.*
    08:57 🍭 *Reducing sugar intake and controlling overall carbohydrate consumption are key to initiating fat burning, aiding in preventing insulin spikes.*
    11:14 🏃‍♂️ *Opting for primarily aerobic exercises helps increase energy expenditure without significantly increasing appetite, aiding in fat loss.*
    14:59 🍗 *Opting for fattier cuts of meat over lean ones can be more satisfying, reducing the risk of overeating protein and impacting blood sugar levels.*
    17:19 🥩 *Entering a state of ketosis by significantly reducing carbohydrates and moderating protein intake assists in effective fat burning.*

    Dr. Ekberg, you’re the real deal. Your advice has got me from 100.4 kg to just over 80 kg in 11 months. I’m on target to lose between 20 - 24 kilos within the year (summer to summer). Most significantly, of all the knowledge you’ve provided, you’ve given me a clear sense of leverage. I now know, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that I can have very real impact on my body’s health and vitality by applying this knowledge. I wish you every success in your vision and your new ventures.

    I lost 36 pounds last year . Partly down to desire for change but I adopted better habits such as 10000 steps every working day. Eating more plant based foods such as salads/fresh veg and portion control I calculated I consuming around 1400 to 1500 cals per day. I avoided hyper processed foods such as Pringles, crisps, healthy snack bars and sweet biscuits.
    I didnt go keto I did eat jacket poatoes but not chips, I did eat bread but only sourdough as a meal with eggs never with marmalade or as a snack. I made small incremental changes but was far from keto . I ate more cheese in ratio terms but not in totality compared with previously. I ate more eggs rather than cereal such as porridge and fruit (which I never added sugar to)
    I found that in the Autumn of last year I had got a little complacent with my new habits and decided to check out interval fasting and ate within a 9 hour window out of 24 which worked brilliantly as long as I opted for only known healthy foods such as nuts 25 grams etc and ate eggs etc but I still continued to eat sourdough bread with eggs and potato /rice with main meals but keeping a check on portion size especially of carbs.
    Success so far but I have a way to go yet.
    Fortunately I have never had a pre diabetic blood test result so I will keep on track and look forward to day I achieve my goal of a healthy bmi. More important than ever as I am now in my 50’s
    The common theme to success seems to be adopting healthy habits that effortlessly fit into your lifestyle and become instinctive and not a chore. Similar with exercise ……..dance if you love it, swim if you enjoy or if you love the great outdoors purchase a good pair of walking shoes and go for a regular walk, borrow your neighbours dog and offer to walk it if that helps a neighbour…….

    I've kind of gone about this backwards. When I started WFH, I didn't eat breakfast already, but then decided, due to the lack of movement I should probably cut back on food, so cut out lunch. I've recently stopped snacking after my main meal, so now I'm OMAD. Since then, I've started researching IF and Keto, so now cutting the carbs.
    I guess I should add I've lost 45lb in 6 months without really putting any more thought into it than I laid out above.

    One of the best overall videos I have seen on CZcams. I am 75 y/o female because of (a long story) I began listening to videos about keto. Then a friend told me about you. I was just an occasional listener until my spring allergies hit. This year after a day cleaning flower beds I woke up deaf the next morning. The ENT worked me in and my hearing loss was caused from seasonal allergies. With treatment my hearing cleared. 2 weeks and 1 day later I started spring cleanup again, next day I woke up with itchy, swollen black eye. One look in the mirror and that was the day I began keto. (Also more meds)My son and my nephew (3 yrs on keto) inspired me to take a look at keto. My decline in my overall health over the past 25 years made me want to give keto a try. 2 weeks on keto (began with 8/16) and combined with allergies I finally felt like getting back in my yard. The first video I watched that day was your how to begin keto and that is when I subscribed to your website. Here I am 4 month later. Still on keto and I am blessed, grateful, and thankful for you.

Thought the pain would last for life… It was inflammation from my diet. Unbelievable really. Diet is key, along with intermittent fasting.

    For me, the key is stress. When I am not stressed at all, fasting and low carbs is very easy. When I am stressed, it is almost impossible. I found that when I exercise I eat less, and until I watched this video I was confused by that. I think what is happening is that the exercise cuts the stress, so I end up with fewer cravings because I have less stress. I've never tried meditation - I wouldn't know where to start and I'm not confident it would work for me. What I do instead, besides exercise, is take frequent breaks from work. Reading a fiction book works well for my break.

    After 70 days doing a keto + fasting lost loads of body fat and feel amazing. What's most amazing though is how much energy I now have and how I'm less hungry despite eating less. I started just doing keto. Then figured myself it made sence to shrink eating window so longer in ketosis. Without any effort went to OMAD. Last week switched to 36/12 but without trying ended up 44/4 and still less hungry than before when I was practically living on white bread. My friend asked me how long am I going to keep this going? I told if I ever fancy being hungry, fat, Ill, tired then I might think about stopping lol. It's hard to get over in word just how good you feel and how easy it is. Far easier than not doing it for sure.

    Running 5 or 6 uphill sprints twice a week as fast as I could for 20 seconds each then waiting for heart rate to go down each time made a huge difference, along with cutting white carbs like potatoes, rice, bread, pasta and of course anything with added sugar like cookies.

    Great video explaining it. I started my Keto diet + IF around 2 weeks ago after piling up too much weight in the last 2.5 years. I decided to go on for 100 days to see the results. I am at a 2-4 hour feeding window and I feel better every day getting after getting over the Keto flu period. To all, just make sure you don't reduce your calorie intake too much and take long walks instead of running. I will start with HIIT in a week or 2. Meditation and reading are two other things that helps to reduce cortisol. Good luck with your journey and make sure it's sustainable

    Thank you Dr! I just ended my 5 day water fast, I followed your video on how to safely eat again and ate what I had in stock as i had no plan. It was almond butter, 1/2cup sauerkraut, 1/2 cup kefir and 1 cup veg broth. I put on my timer and ate 1 item every hour. 6hrs has now passed and I'm surprised that i am not even hungry.
    I was disappointed I only lost 2.5kg. I was doing 20min light rebounding on my new Cellerciser from days 1-4. Day 5 i was to tired.

    I started 18:6 IF at the beginning of April and slowly pushed closer to 20:4 with occasional OMAD. I try to keep my carbs below 50g. I’ve done two 45 hour fasts and I’m currently in the middle of a 96-120 hour fast, depending on how I feel at the 96 hour mark. I’ve lost 25 lbs and my skin seems to be tightening from the autophagy. Part of why I looked into IF was for weight loss, but also for the health benefits. I’m pretty healthy already, but I’ve had seborrhea dermatitis for the last 20 years and IF along with cutting out wheat flour and sugar has almost completely cleared it up. I’ve also encouraged my husband who has probably 100 lbs to lose to join me, and he’s lost 40 lbs in just under 2 months. We’ve been yo-yo dieters for a long time and I’m so thankful for your the knowledge you put out on why IF works and why fad diets don’t.

      @@Mel-tc7ku I started the beginning of April, so about 11 weeks so far. I probably would have lost it faster if I did 20g of carbs a day. I throw in a cheat meal on some Saturday nights too. I’ve found it very surprising that I’m not hungry most of the time and have to force myself to eat dinner most days. It’s definitely hard the second day though and I’m actually doing very well with not eating today. 6 pm will be 72 hours of not eating. I plan to do an extended fast once a season. I’m super excited though because I only have 5-10 lbs to lose. I gain a lot of weight in my legs, so I’m basing my goal off my thighs not rubbing together lol! I’ve done a WW type points diet on and off for probably the last 10 years and have always been confused on why I’d gain my weight back so quick.

      @@Mel-tc7ku definitely try the intermittent fasting. I started with eating breakfast at 10am and dinner by 6pm. Probably did that a couple week before I switched to just lunch at 12 and dinner at 5 or 6. It wasn’t too hard for me because I’ve never been a big breakfast eater. If you can cut out snacking, especially after dinner, it gets easier each week to shorten your eating window. In the beginning I was more concerned about weight loss, now I’m more focused on getting some good autophagy for boosting my metabolism, immune system, some inflammation I’ve had, and the skin tightening benefits.

    I have been doing 18 hour fasting since 2019. I eat my two daily meals in a 6 hour period, from 8am-2pm, breakfast and lunch. I lost 20 lbs, I feel great, and my lipid panel is much better. Fasting is sustainable, you have more energy, and feel more healthy also. If I get hungry after 2pm, I eat a handful of pistachios or pecans and I get satisfied until the next day.

    2nd viewing of this, I listen carefully and still learn more. Thanks to you, am able to routinely sustain 48-hour fasts even with exercise, after being on (good) Keto & IF for 2 years. All the benefits I sought from Keto & IF, I received and then some. Though I had specific numerical health targets (BMI, etc.), the lesson I've learned is that we never stop learning of ourselves and that some improvements take years, just as how it can take years for symptoms of problems to manifest. Thank you for your work.
