- Weight loss is not as simple as "calories in, calories out". Yes, you do need to use more energy than you are eating in order to lose fat HOWEVER there are many factors that come into play that make calorie counting ineffective. When you switch your focus from "calories" to "blood sugar" weight loss becomes a whole lot easier... and more sustainable!
❗ Good Idea drinks can help you to be SMART about your carbs! Their recipe has been formulated with ingredients such as chromium that have been scientifically proven to reduce blood sugar spikes by improving insulin sensitivity.

Calorie counting… did it work for you?
Short term, for sure
Nah
It worked for a while , but then I hit a plateau ....and got discouraged.
I've always refused to do it, so it didn't work 😜
Absolutely not!!! It’s just to confusing and time consuming!! Thank you for your amazing content!!!!
Counting calories has never worked for me I will eat low carb for the rest of my life I finally have a healthy relationship with food.
👏👏
Me too!
Same!
Yep
Same we got this guys! 👍
You're kidding, right? OMG! I've been on the carnivore diet for only 1 month without ANY exercise or expenditure of energy and I've already lost 12 pounds without even trying. AND I get tasty cuts of meat and some nice cheese. I couldn't be happier!
Great advice and great channel. You can't exercise your way out of a bad diet - I learned the hard way - cut all sugar and refined carbs - dropped weight, blood pressure etc. and generally feel much better.
👏👏
Berberine really helped me. I was slightly insulin resistant and my blood sugar dropped from 109 to 91 in 8 months, lowest its been in like 10 years. Love your channel.
How do you use it? Do you take it before during or after a meal
@@kellymadison48 I just take it in the morning, cause it curves your appetite & ur not as hungry.
Hi Kait! I’m not counting calories this time. I sent you a comment a few weeks ago about how your videos have helped me considerably. I’m 69 yr old male and I am following your plan very closely. The goal is to bring my insulin resistance down to within spec. I only eat twice a day and cut out the carbs. I lost 35 lbs which was really a bi product of working on my insulin resistance. I’m 5’10” and weigh 160lbs now and I feel great. I’ll get more labs early in October so I’ll let you know how that turns out! I’m excited!
Thanks Kait! You are helping me so much.
P.S. I work out as well , 30 minutes cardio almost everyday, planning to get bicycle when it cools off!
Bye, Calvin ❤
Amazing Calvin! Thank you again for sharing! Keep us posted on your labs 😁
What kind of cardio do you do daily?
@@angiebrown6252 Caroline Girvan, 30 min, low impact
I love your hair color. You look fantastic!❤
I’m doing all these things currently and it’s helping. I sleep better and I’ve been intermittent fasting the last 3 months. I never knew I was insulin resistant until I was diagnosed with non alcoholic liver disease, which was a complete game changer for my lifestyle. It took some adjusting but even a plant based person can be low carb 💚
Great video ! Very info rich & you make a Great Presentation ! Thank You, I am a new to your video's, but enjoy & will be tuning in again for sure...
Not watched you in a while. Very informative as always and professional.
Loving the new look. You look incredible.

Thank you, Kate!
Thank you so much for this video. Been struggling to stick with keto after my second child seemed to super charge my insulin resistance. Getting bloodwork done soon, then I've decided to try carnivore once I've eaten up the remaining non carnivore foods in my fridge. Your videos help me stay hopeful that i can get my health back and lose the remaining baby weight.
Yes...I'm behind... But, "lucky" for me, I've been able to catch a few of your other videos.
You're an amazing teacher! And because of your consistency, you are a trusted authority...head and shoulders above others!
Thank you, Kait, for what you do!!
Hello Kait! You are amazing! Wonderful video!
🥰🥰
Hi Kait I will try them all,I hope you have a great week.
This is fantastic! I've known most of this for a while and can say you do an amazing job of explaining how this works and why it's not about calories. Thank you! 🙏
🤗🤗
Kait....another name for love and good health❤❤❤ you are a savior. God bless you.
Excellent summary!
I have insulin resistance and will follow your advice , thank you !!!

My doctors have told me for years to eat less and move more had me on 1200 per day since age 17, with little or no weightloss. In my 30's still very much overweight again, same advice from a new doctor except she slashed my calories to 500 per day 😮. Now in my mid fifties and fatter than ever, I was diagnosed with insulin resistance. I'm trying all I can to absorb as much info as possible and implement lifestyle changes. It's a long road ahead, but I need to stick to it.
You must learn about insulin and the key role it plays in your body before starting any diet
Thank you for your help.
Very informative. Truly a battle. Unable to loose enough weight to naturally keep BS down. My goal is to get rid of the meds. Side note, you look amazing.
Thank you for your informative video.
Hi, good info...thanx pretty Kait (your eyes are simply spellbinding)
I haven’t been on CZcams much in weeks. Husband had open heart surgery. I love your videos!! And I totally love love your hair!!! I did Keto for a year, I lost 65 pounds. Then medical issues, moving, my sister moving close, keto stopped but still ate better, but cheated too much and not much movement with medical issues. Most of my weight is back. I need to try something more sustainable. I’m exhausted all the time for years, even on Keto. I’m 70 now and need help. After caregiving for my husband I can’t get what energy I had back. Do you have any suggestions? Or specific videos of your to watch? Thanks if you have the time. 😊
Great video!
My 10 year old daughter has insuline resistance so we are following your advice!
This was very informative thank you. I always feel better on a low carb diet. I have low blood pressure and a low heart rate though? Is that possible to have with insulin resistance?
Very enjoyable, love the list at the end. I'm doing 6 of the 8. No higher carb meals so no ACV. I'm currently in bad shape with sore joints in legs so walking after every meal is not happening yet. I'm working towards 10,000 steps a day, currently 8500 is a PB. Avg. 5000.
Thankyou so much for helping me understand and control my prediabetes . Unfortunately, majority of people still believe in calorie counting and restriction. Its enforced by fitness influencers and the medical system.
Hello! I've actually been doing all those steps already with your help and from other informational pages.
I find that I snack more (on lower carb items) in the eating window. Do you personally only stick to 2/3 meals with no snacks?
I feel like having a tracking device of some sort is helpful to most people to help them aim for certain goal. It sucks that they are not that accurate tho. Made me feel like what’s the point of even trying to get more steps in or exercise so much. It was motivating me now I’m not as motivated knowing this. 😩
Thanks so much for all the information...I learned so much from you.. You look so beautiful with your new hair color.. 😊😊😊😊
Thank you! 🩷
Personally, I've never known anyone who cut calories and lost weight for good. I tried it myself many times. Your videos show a much more consistent method for long term success. Thank you for all the work you do in putting these together. You've helped me greatly and I'm sure many others have benefited as well. Thanks, Kait!
My mother counted calories every day and looked beautiful. She had amazing self control. As for myself and my siblings we all struggle with weight. And we are all T2D.
Well, you've come to the right channel if you're looking for support and ideas!@@louisefromNY
I've been low-carb for several years. I lost some weight and then gained some back. I've always been fairly active. Recently, I realized I was snacking on low-carb foods WAY too often. I reduced that and lost some weight. I need to focus on sleep now. It's so easy to just veg-out past bedtime, but I'm getting better. 🙂
Sounds like you’re on the right track! Small changes add up. You’ve got this!
I struggle with feeling more hunger when I’m eating low carb, so I find myself snacking more. I gain weight even in low carb if I don’t count calories. Otherwise, I overeat high fat foods
Your hair is gorgeous ❤
i love the blonde hair!
Hi Kait 😁👋, Very good video thank you

Hi Kait, do you know if the Good idea drink is available in the UK please? Or potentially any UK alternatives?
That's exactly what I'm doing with the aid of a cgm. I Keep my blood sugar as low as possible and avoid blood sugar spikes with the aid of apple cider vinger 15min after a meal...all this while exercising and fasting around 18 hours a day....its been working for me and i been loosing weight. When i stop losing weight, I work on my cgm results to get any sugar spikes further down and bring the sugar average to a new point to start losing weight again...Age:50..Male...Avarage Glucose 108 mg/dl currently. Was 83kg, Today 74kg.
Calorie counting def did not work and made me have an ED for years (trigger ⚠️) i dont like it. Recently i went to a functional medicine doctor and learned my root causes. I’ve eliminated certain foods. i wasnt having enough sodium and i was diagnosed with pcos and insulin resistance I now have drastically changed it. I have higher protein now and its amazing
Just subbed a few weeks ago.. your videos are very informative. I have a question tho, if your body is used to keto with little to low carbs for sometime, what will happen if you go on a high carb diet? Will the body still process the carbs without issue? Or cause insulin resistance?
When your insulin sensitivity is improved you will be able to tolerate and metabolise carbs better 🙂 However, if you go back to eating the diet that got you insulin resistant in the first place then it will creep back.
I found that eating low carb got me out of this food addiction that I didn’t realize I had.
Amazing!
@@HealthCoachKait I wanted to ask you if it’s acceptable during intermittent fasting to have iced coffee with whipping cream in the morning during my fast? (It has zero carbs and zero sugar.) what are your thoughts?
But still it does not harm to count calories. It make you more disciplined. I agree with everything you said.
Thanks for your super video’s and your so gorgeous I love your hair and your blue nail polish 😍😘
Thanks for another helpful video Kait❤.No, calorie counting was definitely not sustainable for me. But Im curious if u have any videos/ thoughts on how to go about losing/ maintaining weight whilst also trying to have a baby? I used fasting ( skipped dinner) + low carb to lose weight(12 kilos in total over 6 months) and got to my ideal weight in June 2022, currently i dont fast anymore and dont think it wise to do so in case i get pregnant but i am starting to gain weight slowly (+/-) 2 kilos and im not sure what to do about it. Sticking to low carb for life is very difficult when u live with others who are not low carb so i guess my question is twofold:
1.How do u best maintain weight whilst pregnant/ trying to get pregnant?
2.How do u realistically stick to low carb for life?
Any approach that requires constant discipline to succeed consistently is an inherently unsustainable approach for most people. I'm still trying to explain this to certain people I know who are struggling with unsustainable approaches and achieving yo-yo results
Definitely unsustainable for 99% of people 😥
I have insulin resistance ❤
This is great advice

I’ve never tried to count, only thing that works for me and helps me feel great is eat better foods
👍👍
2:36 couldn't agree more coach.
Thank you for an informative video Kait. Do you recommend an even longer IF time of 20-22 hours, or stay at a 16-18 hour IF???
Different people thrive at different levels. Just experiment and see how it goes!
For most people, I find 12-18 hours with 2-3 meals works best. But as the commenter above said, experiment and find what works for you!
I lost 5 stone over 2 years by one meal a day of between 2 and 2.5 thousand calories which includes chocolate, butter or olive oil.
I eat at lunch time and nothing else until the next day.
This means my morning workout of 20-45 mins is in a fasted state which makes it dramatically more effective.
It's much as we evolved to eat, no snackable food just one large meal after the exertion of hunting.
Obviously no sugared drinks are allowed outside the meal but I avoid them anyway because they are terrible for you.
Give it a go you will see results even if you do not restrict what you eat, just when.
Good luck.
What do you do for energy when you play high intensity sports like hockey? Do you increase carbs around exercise?
what about macros & insulin resistance? Lots of info out there on this. To count or not to count...?
I am in a state now where feel less hungry...but at work...I know you said don't snack...but what about though out the day IL get beef Jerky especially when I skip or delay breakfast because I don't really feel hungry first thing in the morning...
I am in day 8 of keto. But zero weight loss. Very despondent. Watched a 100 "keto" videos and still can't really figure it out. I concluded that I shouldn't add any fat to food just eat "fattier" meat ect. Fasting also going into the mix now. Everything else seems correct except due to my active lifestyle on the farm I honestly have no xtra energy for MORE exercise. ANY tips will be much appreciated.

Worked in my 20’s
Then never worked again
I eat as much as I want of the right foods (obviously lower carb and no sugar)
My body feels nourished and not deprived
정제 탄수화물을 거의 안 먹으니 체중 확실히 빠지더라구요!! 칼로리 계산은 따로 안 해요.
Indeed, Insulin resistance is the mother of all evils. However, this does not mean that a person who is following OMAD should eat during OMAD, 5000 calories. Eat less but of Quality; and carbs are the main enemy. Exercise/walk is also very important for good health/longevity
Minimize processed food would be another good suggestion.
Hormones play a bigger role than calories in my experience
Calorie restriction does work but constant hunger wears resolve down and when you give up you give up big and end up heavier than you started.
Calorie counting works initially but then the body gets very adapted to needing fewer calories . The body will conserve what energy is put in and that is a well known scientific fact.
Im tracking kj’s just to guide me and limit my snacking which was where the problem was for me
I've been in ketosis pretty much last 3 months lost weight but been trying to kick myself out for 6 days now and can't get below 0.7 eat carbs and it goes up and down, magic number is below 0.5 right? Trying to teach my body to switch with ease, it's so hard to get out now i feel fat lol i just want to go back to keto but told not to until i get below 0.5 help
Undereating doesn't work. Every time you hit a plateau you need to eat less again. Then fast longer and longer. I like the idea of cycling feasting and famine, cut and gain. But slowly so you don't gain weight. But cutting quickly so your body goes into a deficit. But you aren't starving. 1800- 2000 calories seems right. 1200 to 1500 is ridiculous. If I don't track I undereat and then I don't sleep. Plateau and basically get stuck gaining. I'm doing all the things you suggested but am still gaining because I was doing OMAD and it really messed up my metabolism. Now I feel like I can't lose again.
2k is starvation mode for most average size males
I heard some information from a utube video that since I have body fat and am considered obese, that I should eat more lean protein. Does this mean to lower my fat intake or eliminate it all together. Just confirming. Thank you love you and your content.
I don't recommend lean protein. If you have IR and do not eat enough fat with your protein, your body will convert some to glucose and your blood sugar will rise.
How long do we drink ACV before eating? Can we have ACV with our meal and still have the same effect?
1 hour to immediately before. Having it with the meal helps but is less effective than before 🩷
can you add Apple Cider Vinger with Electrolytes mix (or smoothies) and still receive the same benefits?
Yes
I’ve been doing all the things you mentioned to try and nothing worked for me. I quit the ACV after a year without any success. 😢
What about sweetening the ACV with stevia/monk fruit ?
That’s fine!
Hi Kait=)
Hi John!
What about intermittent fasting? Does it help with weight-loss?
It helps with weight loss by improving insulin sensitivity! I have many videos on IF ❤️
No body addresses this, but what about protein that is absorbed into muscle or skin. Do these calories count? What about fat that is used to fuel the brain and mitochondria? Do these calories count?
If people are more muscular they may need more calories but they may still have excess fat...how can this be tracked ..?..it can't not very accurately
I did do Keto and lost close to 40lbs(down to 170. 3 years later 180 and can’t seem to get back to 170! Help! By the way you look great as a blonde!
ACV 2MAD 10 pounds little exercise
You a sharp looking lady!
Counting calories does not work long term And you end up hungry all the time.
In a way, I do count calories, but only because the app I use also gives the calories for the foods I list. Periodically I will go over my weekly data to see if I am overeating for the energy output. However, my main purpose is to monitor carb and protein intake. I’ve been tested for insulin resistance and have had a DXA scan with RMR done about 6 months after starting a keto diet. All was well at that point: no insulin resistance, optimal visceral fat, with a loss of about 28 lbs. Why do I continue to monitor my food and blood glucose? Mostly to keep on the “straight and narrow”. 😁
Really, because I still need to lose fat and am not ready for maintenance. I’m spending this time checking my reaction to foods/food combinations, learning to estimate portions and what makes me feel good. Hopefully, I will reach that point in another 6 months or so. It is a chore to spend so much time measuring food and recording everything.
What is your diet now like ?
Low carb, whole foods. I target 30g~ of carbs around anaerobic workouts (resistance training) and competition 🙂
❤️
Ask the biggest looser people. After counting calories and doing i tense exercise,they put back all the weight lost. For me the calories can serve ae a benchmark to determine the real world idea of how much to eat. But i dont depend on this
Ja Apple cider Gummi is the only thing i can do
What about Berberine? Last week you were saying this was the way.
It’s a great option, too! As is inositol. I try not to mention toooooo many tips in every video to not overwhelm people 😅
@@HealthCoachKait The Berberine has been working for me. I want absolutely NO sweets.
Amazing to hear Alicia! 😁
What is Berberine?
Breakfast high in protein and fat, but how about lower protein, higher fat and carb breakfast like a raw yogurt with some frozen berries?
Protein is key
Calorie counting didn't work, but basal metabolic rate calculator is not correct too.
Counting calories worked for me but I was doing Whole Foods, gluten, sugar, and dairy free during a prep. After my preps my metabolism died and I got bigger then I was when I was pregnant smh
😭😭
Intermittent fasting works for me. 18/6. Also OMAD.
I been watching a few years now. So great your be getting your BS degree . Thanks for all the content.
Primal certification
Or precision nutrition
Which is preferred method to learn
I would appreciate any info
Thanks
I’m a t2 complete paraplegic that has reversed type 2 from sedentary lifestyle which is a great model to show people if my metabolic changes can occur while coming fined to wheelchair and chronic pain inflammation well then your able body with some small changes can get them there too.
Thank you! And wow that is amazing you were able to reverse diabetes given your circumstances! 👏 Incredible work!
Both PHCI and PN are great programs. If you want to coach people with low carb/whole food specifically, and general health, then I would go with PHCI. PN is a bit more comprehensive when it comes to the science. And it provides more info and strategies for working with athletes. I really appreciated the business building component of PHCI. It gives you one task a week to set up (choose a business name, purchase a domain, etc.) so by the time you complete the program your business is ready to launch!
Hope that helps!
@@HealthCoachKait ty so much . I hope you have a wonderful day. That was very kind and unselfish to take the time to respond so clearly and in detail. Your the best . Btw I been looking back through your old videos and it reminded me how much you have grown and progressed positively in all signs . That’s a major part of people trusting of reaching out . Great job
Hey! Hi! First, we need to stop usin the word "weight," and say "lose fat." We're not looking to lose muscle, right? The eat less/exercise more doesn't work because eating less junk is still eating junk. What works is changing your diet to healthier food and getting off the addictive junk food. Yes, it's that simple. Take it easy.
62, 6ft 1, was 90kg went keto and OMAD, down to 82kg need to put the brakes on a bit, losing too much 👍
I just did my very first 72 hr fast. And I’m eating during a 8 hr window daily. Carnivore, zero oxalate, low carb. I lost 4 pounds the first week. I eat scrambled eggs with sausage, bacon or hame with cheese. Second meal is a large portion of salmon, steak or chicken with a small portion of vegetable. Snack is more cheese. So far, so good. I’m doing this for Crohn’s disease, but I also need to lose weight (BMI 30) and build insulin resistance.
I was a constant snacker because I thought keeping food in my GI would help me. I ate a ton of high oxalate foods because many of them are super foods. This made me very sick. Pottenger’s Human CZcams channel set me on the right path. Check him out if you’re a nerd that appreciates a deep dive into physiology and biochemistry.

At first glance I thought those letters over your shoulder spelled something else.
What happens when you get up to the loo 3 times a night?!?😢
Try to drink less liquids close to bedtime but as long as you fall back asleep quickly it’s not an issue 🩷
Calorie deficit is actually the only thing that's worked for me and fasting didn't work at all. I also do have SIBO.
Glad it worked for you!
