    Just wanted to tell you I am doing the low carb for 6 weeks now and have lost 14 pounds and my blood fasting sugar went from 111 to 103. I was so excited. I started watching all your videos and came across this one in particular. I was in tears to see everything you beautiful girls tried. You are truly amazing to watch. I love the chaffles. You just make it easier to keep us going on and not failing. I think I was at a point where I just wanted to look and feel better for myself as well as my husband. I am 74 and am not going to get many more chances to try but I believe this time it will happen. Please keep making your videos as you are both a joy to watch and listen too.

    I just want to tell you that this video is the most simplified and perfect way to explain what keto is for those of us who are tired of watching videos with complicated math and a list of forbidden foods.
    While I am definitely not strict keto I do not eat gluten or sugar.
    I have realized lately that I have been allowing rice to sneak its way back into my meals and the weekend comes on very quickly which shows how sensitive I am. Thank you for this!!!

    I am NOT a first time or beginner keto dieter, but I wanted say that this video is very informative for the first timer! You guys summarized a lot of good info people can effectively use to begin their journey. Your points about fruit are spot on. To be successful on the Keto diet, many people have to UNLEARN some notions of past diets. Also, the first month is critical to reset your pallet, so try to avoid keto sweets as much as possible. Anything sweet can derail you... so it’s best to ease into it further into your journey. Keep up the great work, ladies!

    Greetings from Canada. This was an excellent video for keto beginners. I started 2 weeks ago, but have not entered ketosis and I was just scratching my head as to what I was doing wrong. Guess what, I've been eating an apple and a peach per day everyday and every morning when I check for ketones the keto stick is not turning pink. Thank you for explaining in simple terms what ketosis is and why fruits should be avoided. Now I know what I was doing wrong. Gosh, I feel like a complete idiot :)

    Recipe you and your husbands might like. (Taco chili)= 1 large can original flavor or mild,or hot. Ron-tel tomatoes,,in soup pan,add 1/2 stick butter,one lb. cook hamburger meat,seasoned with one pkg. taco seasoning. All all ingredients in soup pan (after hamburger is cooked). Add 2-3 cups water. Simmer on medium heat about 20-30 minutes,stirring well.
    I saw your little cheese bites where you put a pickle in it then put in oven ,you could use that same recipe and add jalapeño slices (pickled) to make chips to eat with taco chili. Anyway, when chili is ready put in sharp or fiesta cheese,or cheddar on top of bowl of chili. Taste like your eating something you shouldn’t. Your husbands will love it too.

    Hi ladies! I have a follow up question regarding our OMAD Chat.... I realize you don’t count calories or track your meals. I don’t really anymore either but if you had to give your BEST GUESSTIMATE of how many calories you get in your one meal a day, what would it be? Do you think it matters if you undereat? See I feel that I could easily be satisfied with maybe 1000 calorie meal or even a bit less. I’m just concerned my metabolism will take a hit doing that constantly. Which is why I’ve been eating more than that on the weekends. What are your thoughts on this???? Thanks in advance! ♥️

    • @ketotwins
      @ketotwins  Před 3 lety +2

      My best guess is 1200 or so. If we are satisfied then no, we don’t care about under eating because that equals weight loss, we still have weight to lose. I’m not a doctor so I don’t know about how much a metabolism slows with constant calorie restriction but my metabolism couldn’t be worse than it is already 🤣. It’s all about how we feel, if we need to eat more we do. If we can get by with less or throwing in a 24/48/ 72 hour fast we will do that too. It’s really fluid with us. Sorry that we can’t be of more help! Everyone is different and might require different things. All you can do is keep trying different things to see what works best for you, and be willing to change it up constantly until it works and you are happy with how much you eat. -Em

I still have weight to lose too. About 15 lbs at least an am like 35% body fat now. So PLENTY food on me to go around 😂. .... thanks! I was just curious what your thoughts were. A lot of times when I think of the whole “tracking” thing I realize that is a fairly new concept to human beings. We never tracked before. We ate til we were satisfied and then done til we were hungry again. I hate it’s become sooooooo detailed and controlled sometimes. But people were also not carb addicts back then either so new twists and turns as times change!
