- Identify metabolic issues that arise as we age and how they affect our ability to lose weight.
This is part one of a three-part series. In parts two and three we’ll discuss fat loss strategies that work despite our age, and practical food swaps that make the whole process easy, enjoyable, and effective. I hope you'll join me!

As we age, we accumulate metabolic disadvantages like a slower BMR, injuries, and hormonal issues (menopause or lower testosterone). While these issues may slow the rate at which our bodies lose weight, they do not prevent weight loss. And, these issues are not significantly changed by what we eat.
However, there are two metabolic disadvantages that impact our ability to burn fat that can be influenced by our diet: Insulin Resistance and Poor Gut Health. In this video, I explain why these issues block fat loss and set the stage for parts 2 and 3 of our series on Losing Weight after 50.

Keto has done me the world of good. I started keto 5 months ago and my body has reverted back to my normal weight and appearance: slim and healthy. I am a 63y/o British Australian woman, 5'9" tall, and young looking for my age, so losing the few inches of heaviness that I'd gained in the last 6 years by taking up keto means my body works extraordinarily well now, all glory to God who led me here. I was a sugar addict and have nothing to do with the stuff any more!
Thank you for sharing your great results. Sugar is a dangerous addictive "drug". We are so unaware of it's dangers while children growing ~up as it is eaten so freely. I hope you are still doing well on Keto.
Turning 65 and got serious about my diet and exercise. I do HIIT and cut out sugar. I am almost at my weight in HS. Never felt better with amazing energy levels.
I'm 60,Male and I started watching your channel then 2 Doc's last Jan and Im down 52 lbs 20 to go.
Jeffers 58. .. Congrats Jeffers.. Your success makes my heart sing. Thank You for your inspiration.
Tell me how you did it.
Great job Jeffery 58. Keep it going, nearly there 💗
West Springfield Keto and staying 10g of carb per day or less. My carbs would be from small salad now eating one meal a day this week due to stall. And I have stalled several times.
Wonderful news. Congratulations. Will try to follow your example.
You explain everything in such a clear, easy-to-understand manner. I REALLY appreciate that! Glad I found your channel!!
Love your videos along with 2FD! Thank you for this series. I am so tired of 30-something trainers telling me I need 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight or that my joint soreness is because of form instead of wear and tear from 40+ years of athletics. I was so frustrated that I could not get results until I found Dr. Keith and you. I really appreciate these videos ❤️
You're so informative and you break things down so people like me can get an understanding... thank you
I am so happy that I found your videos! It is information that I have been desperately seeking!
I like your videos very much. What I particularly like is your ability to explain these things in laymans terms. Nutrition is a very complicated issue and not all CZcams viewers are doctors and microbiologist. Good work - keep it up.
Thank you Dr. Becky. You provide wonderful information.
Literally just found you this week & am really impressed by your wisdom and no nonsense teaching! (You are aging backwards!). Looking forward to learning more! Blessings!
TOTALLY agree with the idea of hormonal effect of food. Your unique skill of presenting cellular biology in an understandable way is unique and much appreciated. You will be at 500K subs soon!
I am so tired of the attitude that I ate poorly & that's why I have type 2 diabetes and have gained weight. This couldn't be further from the truth. Since 1971, I've educated myself about nutrition, grown my own organic gardens & eaten health food products. Rarely eating sugary products & never using white (refined) flour products or baking with white flour & sugars. I used honey or maple syrup in small amounts. I always ate & eat natural fats, with butter & olive oils being topmost favourites. I've habitually eaten nutritionally excellent food all of my adult life. I lived a very healthy lifestyle because type 2 was diagnosed later in life in all of my family members. By the time I reached 60, in spite of my efforts, I too am diagnosed with it. I am attempting to kick it to the curb, with keto & IF. Wish me luck.
Good luck. Keep us posted.
You obviously are not telling the truth about what you grew up eating
I look forward to viewing these great videos relating to the losing weight after 50. Thanks Dr. Becky!
Wow ! Finally an honest CZcams video about health !! Great job
Thank you doctor for doing this great service for those of us over 50
this is great info for our age group. well presented and the text/graphics are very helpful too. thank you Dr. Becky!
Focused, well-put, helpful - as all your lectures! Thank you Dr Becky!
You are brilliant....it is not easy to articulate all of this to lay people. I can follow you and just feel inspired.
really love how clearly you explain the underpinnings of nutrition. Thanks for doing these!
Thank you for the information!!! I need all the help I get can and you make it easier to understand. (I like your rug at the door too!!!)
I am really enjoying and learning so much from Dr Becky's videos
Struggling with weight gain since menopause but here's hope I can overcome these struggles
Thanks Dr Becky - Love your teachings!
I will be 50 in 1 Year. Started Keto Jan 1st 2020. Started intermitted fasting at same time. I’m not loosing the weight like my husband is. It’s very saddening to me. Thank you for this video series. ❤️
She is talking about me because I am 50 and going through menopause lol. Thanks doc❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Dr. Becky, great information and presented so well!
Thank you Dr Becky!
Dr Becky, I love listening to you. Your videos are very educational and informative :-)
Great information!!! I’ve been looking for this. Thank you ☺️
Great work! Keep them coming.
Thank you for sharing the motivation to help others of all ages lose weight. God bless
its hard but doable, I started OMAD a few months ago went from 420 pounds size 52 pants down to 270 and 34 size pants in about 8 months, I am 51 yers old and I am 6 3"
Congrats!
Wow!! Kudos to you!! Keep up the great work!
Nancy Archibald down to 245 now 😁
I am doing the same thing right now OMAD & Keto. Some say to watch your calories and keep track of your calories while others say just stop eating when you feel full. What do you think? Any secrets to your success on OMAD?
Curious as to what your calorie and macro intake is per day?
Come on Dr Becky I think there are positives:
We can't exercise as hard,but we can as long.
We can persevere better,
We can be more resilient,
And my view is that changes in lifestyle between 50 and 70 can be sustained. These are just my opinions.☺
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Very informative. Thank you for sharing.
Just great ...you make everything so easy to understand....thank you joe Bham England x
Thank you Dr. Becky...Judy in Tennessee
I'm 56 and don't have a problem losing weight. I also IF and have never felt better. I go hiking with my dog and lift weights, years ago I would run like a crazy hamster on the treadmill and hated it! No need for crazy amounts of cardio, it's not needed for weight loss:)
Into week #3 of keto woe. Down 10.5 lbs. I have many of the things you mention here. Insulin resistance, low thyroid, 7 children, many injuries, arthritic back, knees, hands, plus lung failure, so on 02 constantly, but losing weight and lowering inflammation would make all my owies easier to live with. I'm determined to make this my way of life and see many healthy improvements. **Editing to add that I am 63 yrs of age and had surgical menopause at age 38.
Great to hear, Nancy! I'm rooting for you!
Nancy. That's awesome! You beat some insurmountable odds in spite of all of your health issues. 10 lbs is really good! Chronic pain makes it hard to lose weight....I know. I have severe arthritis of the lumbar spine due to scoliosis. I used to take a lot of pain meds which I found out, screwed up my testosterone and thyroid levels. My doctor took me off the high doses of pain meds and the weight started to come off much more easily. My energy has returned and even though the pain is still there, I am much more equipped to handle it. I just turned 58.
Nancy Archibald Good luck and all the best wishes for good health.
@@ginasigman1658 - thought you would like an update... We are 10 days into our 4th month of K-WOE. I have shed 46 lbs! I'm off muscle relaxants, only on an occasional painkiller. Inflammation is waaay down. Everything (all body parts) are getting smaller. Clothes are loose and I am using my cane much less often. Life is good!! KETO for LIFE! 84lbs to go..
Maybe by mid-July (??)
@@aishaalkhyat4094 - check out my update Aisha...down below. :-)
Thank you another informative video.
Thanks for info. Can not wait for the second video 🤗😊
I have heard the term insulin resistance but never really knew what it meant, this is a simple explanation even I can understand
Try Dr. Sten Ekberg series. It's really informative.
At 42 in 2003 I went through early menopause due to the total hysterectomy I had . I wasn't told about the side effect of gaining weight .
Less than a week after the surgery I started feeling ravenous and kept eating till I gained 27 pounds in 4 months .
At first it was hard to lose weight because no matter what I tried the scale wouldn't budge . But after 5 years I tried again to lose weight and it did start coming off
Pushing 50, have been meticulously low-carbing, consuming moderate protein and higher quality fats, and cutting calories for about three months. Even with low-level hormonal replacement therapy for both reproductive and thyroid hormones, aside from initial water weight - haven't lost a pound. Also tested negative for insulin resistance. I'm getting enough sleep, not particularly stressed. No other health issues. I've been exhausted for years, after Lyme disease - and am still mostly exhausted.
At a complete loss as to why I'm not losing weight... something I desperately need to do, to address high blood pressure and fatty liver.
Thank you ...you are very clear. I have followed your videos and advice. I have lost 60 pounds so far. You are so very much appreciated!!
That's great, Carla! Congrats!
I’m exactly your age . You look 👍🏼 great .
Menopause and stress caused me gain weight . I’m
On Keto now to bring back my old self .

Thanks for the tips.
Im 20lbs down from taking your advice, 25 to go! if my belly could talk it'd say" are you serious about this ?...we'll see, im not goin nowhere yet"

Terrific video! Can't wait for parts two and three! Thank you, Kim
Please make a video on muscle building after weight lose.
Thank you
Good message. You are looking marvelous for over 50 by the way.
She sure is! I'm jealous.☺💗
@@msprecious3498 1967 is 53 years old.
Fascinating!
You explain this so well, thank you!
thankyou
Lovin the vids
do you take any supplements . I have been doing strict keto carbs 0-5 maybe and I was wondering if I needed potassium, magnesium.
You are looking marvelous for over 50 by the way.
I easy born in 1965 and am going through menopause and am gaining a fat gut. I have started Keto 2 weeks ago and hope it works
3 years on please
post an update.
I started Keto on Jan 7 after eating whole food plant based for 14 mos. I am 63 and currently weigh 233 lbs. I ate whole food plant based so that I could get off the buffet of meds I was on during and after cancer treatment. I achieved that goal and now don't take any meds. However, I wasn't losing weight anymore, started feeling fatigued, and overall, just not feeling as great as I should. I was losing hair for about 7 mos. or more, so I began to wonder if a vegan lifestyle wasn't meant for me. After much anguish and concern, and research, I finally reached a comfortable place in my keto journey and decided I would treat this like an experiment. I still struggle with meat in my mouth, and dairy in my meals, but it's becoming easier. My concern is that I've only lost 6 lbs after almost a month, and apparently no inches. I measured, believe me. Is this normal ? I know my body is probably in shock and now has to figure out how to use fat instead of carbs and that takes time. I was just wondering if others experienced the same. All this macro stuff and trying to figure out how much fat to eat while trying to be mindful of the calories is VERY confusing. The more videos I watch, the more confused I get. HELP ! Oh, I also mostly eat once a day, sometime 2, so I suppose I have incorporated intermittent fasting into this diet. I eat when I'm hungry, I stop when I'm full. I usually have a 5 hour eating window, most times less.
How are you doing now in Feb 2020?
I'm 55 and it's very difficult to lose the weight. I also have health issues which makes it difficult to exercise and eat the way I want to eat. Hopefully I can find a way to lose weight without being hungry all the time. I work in a healthcare industry which make me eat more. I am always running, and it's difficult to find a happy medium.
What would you suggest for Omega-3 fish oil? Most are recommending 3000 mg a day?
Hello Dr Becky. I'm Sunita Razdan from India. I've watched a lot of your videos. They are very informative. Thanks a lot.
I'm 53 year old and am struggling to lose weight.
Welcome to my channel, Sunita!
I ate the Keto diet for 40 days and lost about 20 pounds. I need to lose ten more pounds. My back problems are gone. My energy level is up too. I walk 10,000 steps or about 4.50 miles a day. Twice a week I walk ten miles a day. The weight is staying off.
Thank you so much for your videos. I am 53, and never understood the biochemistry of nutrition.
I recently realized that I have NAFLD, although my MD seems to be not overly concerned, just saying that my elevated liver enzymes are ‘likely due to obesity’, and will do more bloodwork in 3 months....😂😂😂😂. I’m not waiting 3 months to begin to resolve the issue!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for helping people to understand such important, life changing, information.
Hi songbird857, I have a video titled "Fatty Liver: What Is It? Do You Have It? How To Fix It" that you might find helpful: czcams.com/video/_e5epKy5rv0/video.html
Great video. I was also born in 1967. :)
Way to go!
🌷🌟🌷Dear Dr Becky, the information you give is how I’ve lost 30 pounds. I’m 69 tomorrow and I was insulin resistant but didn’t know what that was or how to undo it. My checkup numbers weren’t good, prediabetic, and pre metabolic syndrome... but no one tells you what that is or how to undo it.. my ignorant doctor said to lose weight... nothing else. He doesn’t seem to know the information you share. Most doctors don’t. You are greatly appreciated. Thank you. I have 10 pounds to go till I reach my goal of 130.🥰
Congrats on your progress, Cynthia! Happy birthday :)
Should you eat your bmr? If your bmr is 1550, is that what you should eat? Would eating less, like 1300-1400 be bad?
I'm 54 in menapause my good colesteral is bad and my HDL is low tryclicerides 83 I'm so frustrated and been eating strict keto
I have tried many things, my weight went with LCD last year but i gained weight again
Good info. Down 25. More to go.
50 is still pretty young. Many people these days look great at 50. 60 and 70 is more of a challenge. Slower metabolism and changes in skin tone and muscle mass. Start good habits early and stick with them.
Thank you for this great info. Looking for information on the best way to fast and do keto without a gall bladder. Any tips, sites or info you would check out or read?
maybe a future video
@@beckygillaspy ,well where is it ? Dr ?
What's your opinion on wild yam cream? Anyone?

What is your opinion of d-ribose supplements?

Tell about muscle building diet.
I am in desperate need to loose weight. I am a disabled (spinal and hip chronic pain d/t chronic injuries and compression and other damage from working as a nurse), 57 year old woman (pic is of my skinny husband! lol). I don't overeat. In fact I do not eat but between 500 - 100 kCal/day. But I am very mobility limited and am oven bed ridden. Exercising even the chair exercises are so hard for me. I am bed ridden usually a couple of days after I do try to follow chair exercise videos for disabled/elderly people. I just want me back! I've never been overweight in my entire life until I had to quit working about 10 years ago. I am post menopausal, having had to have a hysterectomy in my early 40's. Any help for someone on disability with no money for medical assistance or personal trainers. This one time caregiver is now in dire need of help and I have no one to help me now.
Ive been wanting to know what I can do to reduce weight in the bustline as I had breast succeptable to excess fatcells and want to badly shrink them to feel better because I feel the onset of heart disease at the age of 57.. Any suggestions?
50. And 35 pounds overweight. I am not just " obese".. I am" morbidly obese".. Great just great.. Well here we go!
So far I’ve lived through diets of burger with cottage cheese, Tab, sugar free jello and Snackwell fat free cookies. That into was all wrong. I wonder what health experts will say in 20 years about Keto and IF?
Other factors are boredom eating like my husband! His gut is so big but if I say something like no, there is no more food, we had enough he comes back with why, you are fat, why pick on me! I am not fat, am 5'11" and weigh 70kg. Would not like to be fatter and keep a good eye on it with a weigh in weekly!
We are same age Doctor as we born same year 1967. Yes I’m fighting for my health especially when had sciatica since nov 2019. I’m improving with sciatica after following a lot of stretching. Yes not easy to loose weight at 89kg but I change life style being vegan since 2012 when I had stroke and paralyse. I improved now doctor and I glad I did it. No meat, no fast food, no fried food avoid all process food because it’s best cook on your own much more healthier. At least 60% food are fruit and veggies and 40% carbohydrates, less carbohydrates is better.. , good sleep and good exercise as walking is the best for every morning.Thanks god I’m good now at weight 68kg. Drink more green tea avoid all sugary food and diary products coz its process too. I took amway products as my supplement of vitamins. Start take calsium magnesium 600mg too not more for the bone because gave another impact on the bone. But Doctor info on woman over 50s also help me because it’s guidelines for me to get better. Thank you Doctor😎👍
Hi, I'm 57 and just joined your channel. My question is, Is soybean good for you? I enjoy beans and am now wondering if soybean should be continued. Thank you for all the great work and info.
Hi Luz, welcome to my channel! I am not a fan of soybeans for a number of reasons. I have materials on why in my coaching program, but I believe that I have sprinkled in facts in different CZcams videos.
Since i went through menopause have just ballooned and i cant not take the smell of meat so am now a pescatatian. Please help

Where is the link to the video you mentioned?
Hi Stacie, I am not sure which video you are referring to, but I include video links in the description area below the video.
Anything about leaky gut ?
Thank you.
Hi Hasmik, here is my video on Leaky Gut: czcams.com/video/VO7Kfs0thLc/video.html
Dr. Becky, I tested with Keto Mojo at noon today (Fasting) and my blood glucose was 80 mg/l and my ketone reading was 2.2. So to get a GKI number I divide 80 mg/l by 18 to get a mmol/l number which was 4.44444 and divide that by my ketone mmol/l number and got a 2.020202 and that number on the GKI is good, right? Thank you in advance for answering this question, I just want to be sure I’m calculating it right.
Hi Patricia, are you a member of the coaching program? If so, post your question in the forum and I'll be happy to help you with your calculations.
