      Hello Dr Fung: thank you so much for your videos! One thing I'd like to suggest for you to lobby on: if the number of calories are not as important as the hormones they trigger, maybe we should have a Glycemic (or Insulin) Impact number as part of every product's Nutrition Facts table (which right now shows only counts of calories, fats, carbs, and proteins).

    Doing OMAD, Keto and 2 hours a week cardio. Lost 40 pounds (18 kg) in 4 months. I thought I plateaued but on average are still losing 1 pound a week (Garmin scale really works). Almost reached the goal BMI of 25. Then I'll probably go to 16/8. I never go back to the high carb/sugar foods. Thanks to Fung I now really understand what was going on. Never knew that. Everybody said I just needed more exercise and eat more regularly. Now I'm fasting everybody thinks I'm mad and that it is dangerous to eat once a day. Strange, because when I ordered fast food in the past, nobody said anything. But that was the real danger! I now feel good and energetic the whole day.

    I literally feel it immediately when I eat refined carbohydrates, something like a bagel. I get a headache, I feel what feels like a blood sugar or insulin spike, and I feel like I have to take a nap. On the other hand I had an egg wrap with scrambled eggs, bacon, avocado, and a little bit of sour cream for my first meal at 4:30 pm yesterday. I had every intention of eating my second meal two hours later but I simply wasn’t hungry so that’s all that I ate yesterday. It’s over 18 hours later and I’m still not hungry, and that’s after walking eight miles this morning.

This entire month I fasted at least 18 hours everyday with zero hunger. Most days I fasted even longer (with the longest being 40 hours). Feeling great and hiked 110 miles this month while the above was going down. I'm sold to this way of eating.

    Many thanks Dr Fung. Within 37 days lost 10KG! Feeling more energetic and not tired all the time. Here's my regime. MON to SAT 20 hour Intermittent Fasting (IF). Start fast after lunch 1300 hrs and have breakfast the next day 0900 hrs. Been eating my regular food. Breakfast is fruit juice (apple, beetroot, orange, celery) with a cup of tea with full cream milk powder. Lunch is typical Asian i.e. stir fried vegetables, rice, fish/ meat. After SAT lunch i.e. 1300 hrs continue fasting for the whole of SUN and break fast on MON 0900 hrs. This is a 44 hour fast. Will carry and monitor. Now at optimal BMI and perhaps shorten the fasting hours to say 18 or 16 hours to arrest the weight loss. Normal routine includes exercise 20,000 steps a day. Note that IF is the only change to my routine, so can definitively say this is the one that made a huge difference :-)

      Yep. People think, OMG, I'll be too Hungry ALL the time! BUT the Awesome truth is that NOPE, you will hardly notice any true hunger pangs at all! I do intermittent fasting which is at least 20 hours per day. I am hardly ever truly hunger until my eating window. And for me, eating quality protein along with healthy fats and veggies works the Best! The protein and fats, along with the fiber, keeps a rock- steady blood glucose. No feeling of crashing or dragging thru the day feeling fatigued!
      (I would happily do extended fasting but I have medication that I need to take daily that requires a bit of food to be absorbed properly.)
      Anyways, I've done OMAD and Intermittent Fasting for over 2 years now and it's the Easiest thing in the world! And when you eat whole nutritious foods your body starts Healing and becoming Strong and Healthy!!😉😎

    The insulin model of adiposity was definitely applicable to me because I lost a lot more weight since I started keto and intermittent fasting than I did when I was counting calories on a standard diet, and the weight has stayed off which I never did before. I’m not saying that this will be true for everyone because it probably depends on a lot of particular details, but it was certainly true for me, and thank goodness that people like Dr. Fung are out there because this information allows people to salvage their quality of life while the CICO crowd is out there arguing to show that they know what’s absolutely right for everyone.

      I would think that in most folk that are eating highly refined carbs weight loss would occur. I think the biggest thing is that fats/protein satisfy your hunger better and as a result you are not as hungry and you eat less thus less calories are reduced. Restricting carbs has always worked for me in losing weight. Great reply.

      @@DLTJR1959 Carbohydrates really are not the problem overall. Asians for example have white rice with every meal. However, they consume a lot of protein and fats. The problem is people consume too many carbs on their own. Bagels, sweets, soda, etc. I would never just eat a bowl of pasta for example without some source of protein. I would never wat rice on its own either.

    I have to say I was always one of those " a calorie us a calorie thinking people" however once Dr Fung explained that it is all based on how your body recognises/ or is able to extract the energy out of the food, that makes the difference. Dr Fung is the first person I heard that described this, this way, and it makes so much sense.

  • @mirzamanmirzaman1482
    @mirzamanmirzaman1482 Před 2 lety +8

    Thanks Dr.Jason. I am following his videos since the beginning of this year and learned a lot. I managed my carbs, protein and and fat intake ratio and as a result, I am a normal person now. I don’t feel sick nor hopeless. My clinic doctor told me that I am a pre diabetic and an obese person weighing 201 lbs and 5.8 Hba1c. Following Dr.Jason for the past 9 months, I lost 47 lbs and came to an Hba1c of 5.2.
    In my past 9 month diet journey, I reduced carbs to 20% and said goodbye to bread and rice.
    I think everyone has to watch Jason’ videos carefully and change his or her lifestyle. The results are good and will make you happy.

    That’s what I always thought having pcos because I would try to lose weight with just being in calorie deficits and it would never work. But when I would fast and low carb then I would lose weight. All the weight loss CZcamsrs always say it’s simply calorie in calories out.

    I love these videos by Dr
    Fung because they succinctly encapsulate the various aspects of diet and it's effect on the body. The one on carbs is good in that it explains simply the different types of carbs and whether they contribute to weight gain. Not all calories/carbs have the same effects so not all carbs are "bad" or should I say have negative consequences on the body. These videos and your books have been useful in pointing me in the right direction in my attempts to change what I eat and to also incorporate intermittent fasting as a tool to lose and maintain my weight. Please keep making these videos as we need many advocates on the proper approach to food in order to mitigate the effects of a "modern food environment"

    You are utterly incredible! I am so thankful to you for your videos and just sharing this knowledge with us. I think that if more people started to view weight loss as more complex than the widely used and simplified concept of “calories in vs calories out” then more people would have success. It’s truly life changing just to learn about weight and fat loss in terms of how our bodies actually process those foods, calories, etc and that it has more to do with insulin than anything else we’re doing!! Thank you for enlightening me! I just started my fitness/weight loss journey with the goal being to do a body recomposition (loose fat and tone up muscle). I did a comprehensive body scan and found out that I have very high amounts of lean body mass and lean muscle mass, and that my overall fat percentage was optimal. But conversely, the basic BMI chart tells me I’m almost obese. So I’ve gone on this whole time wondering why I don’t look as heavy as others with my same height and weight…and thinking I needed to lose a lot more fat than I even have on my body!! Do you face any recommendations for women with high levels of lean/muscle mass and relatively high level of fat mass who wants to tone up and lose fat? I wondering if the calorie deficit I’ve been told to use is way too restricting and therefore causing my body to just burn less calories.
