This was fantastic! I've done FMD 10 times and love its results. But the last FMD kit I received had two errors, which was very disconcerting because you just don't stop the FMD because something is missing! I called and reported the errors in the kit - poor quality control issues - but didn't really get any satisfaction. So, I've been on the lookout for a DIY version. There are some others on You Tube but yours, by far, is the best. So, thank you so much to going to all this trouble for us. Additionally, I am certain that a 'real live food' version of FMD is going to be far more satisfying than the processed, packaged, dusty one that Prolon makes. Kathleen
Thank you for sharing your feedback and experience, Kathleen! I had only tried Prolon once myself and though I mostly loved the product (for its results!) I prefer the fresh food version. I hope you were able to finish your 10th cycle successfully despite the errors! Good luck with this DIY version - if you have any questions as you go through it, please let me know 🙂 Jamie
Great video! I make a huge pot of soup at the beginning of the week and using cronometer. I build a recipe that has the exact macros of the FMD. Then I know how many calories per cup, and I go from there. If I get snacksy, I munch on celery, cucumber, dill, pickles, etc. Works just as well as when I did the packaged version.
I love that! It’s so nice to do it with real, fresh food. How often do you do it? Is it ongoing or do you follow Longo’s advice to do it twice a year?
@@plant52_ dr. Longo talks about an athlete doing this twice a year or somebody who is overweight can do it once a month. His podcast with Dr. Rhonda Patrick of FoundMyFitness was very informative. They addressed the frequency in his episode. Currently, I am doing this once a month.
@@plant52_ over the last five months I have lost approximately 8 to 10 pounds each time and have kept off five each cycle. So I am down a total of 25 pounds over five cycles.
@@StancyInTheCity that's awesome, congrats on the great work and progress!
We did our own version of DIY for the FMD and it worked really well. We didn’t weigh the veggies since they are so low calorie anyway, we used size measurements. But of course the nuts and oils have to be very precisely measured since they are so calorie-dense. I think this works better than Prolon for a few reasons: first, we’re using whole unprocessed foods, and second, fresh veggies are a lot more filling than eating a cracker. We had no hunger issues until days 4 and 5. In fact, some days it was hard to eat the entire calorie allotment for veggies because it takes a LOT of them to add up to just a few calories. We’re following Dr. Longo’s other recommendations for eating all the time, and plan to do the DIY FMD for 5 days each month to improve our health and lose weight.
Thanks for sharing 🙂 Sounds like you’ve developed an excellent plan that’ll lead you to success. Good luck!
HEAVENLY INSPIRED!! sincere helpful suggestions for a RESET! with FMD our style!
😍 hope you enjoy, Marsha!
Love this video! I’ve purchased your product over a year ago and now I’ve done it 5 times! I’ve also tried the ProLon and I hated eating all the packages…. Felt so artificial. I’ve become more whole food plant preferred and I love the fresh foods. Taste buds are much happier too. Great way to pull myself back and reset myself. By your recommendations I’ve also been eating more “Dr. McDougall” style. Starchitarian! Thanks for all the updated info.
Starch girls for life! lol 🔥🍠🍚You're kicking butt and are a shining example of a woman taking control of her health and wellbeing!
Can you tell me what you ate? I eat paleo, would love to try this but I don’t eat packaged food
@@phyllisboyle1162 Jin eats mostly whole plant foods like brown rice, white rice, kimchi, potatoes, baby carrots, and when enjoying dark leafy greens it's mostly an Asian choy (bok choy, a choy, etc). She also eats fruit, some nuts, and occasionally eats her other favorite foods (almost anything goes!) I hope this helps :)
9:26 learned that the hard 😭it's for sure helpful to hold off on the snack.
+ love your video, you're quite funny and informative - glad this popped up on my feed!
You know it 😆😐 Glad it’s helpful! 🤗💓
I'm so glad I found this!
Are the macro percentages the same as the Prolon or as Dr. Longo breaks down in the book?
I've done Prolon so many times and can not stomach another soup or rancid bar ( my last three boxes has the bars gone rancid )
Oh man, I’m sorry to hear that! I’ve noticed they seem to almost give away the bars (we got 2 extra boxes when we orders a few of them).
In our guide, the macros are a very close match (1% off on one of them) and we always go into a proper ketosis measured by blood ketones!
Yes will be nice to do this for us❤️🥰🙏
Cool!! Been looking for this as I just finished 5 day. Thank you!!! Do you think just the urine strips are less accurate??
Yes some of them can be wildly inaccurate! We just had a group fast and one of our fasters had very different ketone level results when she used a urine strip (very high ketones) compared to drawing blood and using lancets and a ketone meter (which was consistent with what I’ve seen during our fasts)
Yes! I’d love to see how the meals are prepared.
It’s all comin! 🤩👩🏻🍳
can you please show th salad: cals/macros/ingredients. also totals for blueb and nuts snsack in quantities please? thanks. i like your place..nice and clean//very calming@@plant52_
@@jeffreyeliot thank you 🙂 I do my best to keep it clean lol. For the total calories and ingredients and quantities, in the previous video at the 3:58 mark, there's a list of the entire plan - good luck!
Please show every meal that you have. It would be very helpful.
Here you go (this playlist includes all of the meals): czcams.com/play/PLEaQem5N9plfKJkDsSfyqOmVQSYQzdkBh.html&si=1gKXpFvdux0WRBiJ
Thank you! Do you include electrolytes and/or glycerin?
Great question! I do not on our DIY version and stick to drinking lots of water, sparkling water (flavored but none with added sugars since that’ll take us out of the fasting state), and lots of herbal teas. I understand it’s pretty easy to get glycerin from grocery stores - I feel like the glycerin drink in ProLon’s official FMD was effective at curbing hunger so def something to consider adding if hunger is a struggle!
You did a great job explaining everything. I'd love to do this but what if I'm allergic to certain foods like avocado? Could I replace it with something equivalent?
thanks Cindi! Yes, you can replace the foods in this DIY version with other whole plant foods since this is a DIY version. Dr. Longo and his team use specific plant foods scientifically (and therefore state their FMD can't be recreated at home). We've tried different ingredients with our DIY version and each time, we go into ketosis (and therefore burn our glucose stores appropriately) measured by our blood ketones. There's flexibility to play around with the foods you use - please use cronometer.com to make sure you get the correct macronutrient breakdowns; you can find those and more info on the "part 1" video here: czcams.com/video/fDswX6gk0OU/video.html - good luck!
@@plant52_ Thank you so much for your reply. I'm wondering if you've known anyone with rheumatoid arthritis to do this and if so what was their outcome? I'm trying to decide between doing this or the Paddison program for arthritis. Thanks again for your reply. Have a great weekend.
@@plant52_ Oh also is there a way to communicate through email as I have some questions about getting your 5 day reset pdf guide. Thanks again. :)
@@cindilacasa3291 yes, a friend of mine no longer felt arthritis in her toes after doing this however she did continue to change her eating habits mostly eating brown rice, potatoes, carrots, fruit, and some other veggies. The Paddison program looks great! If you feel like that level of support would be helpful to you with the extra information and support included, looks like a good option. I would recommend to start however to stick to a very basic meal plan for a week and see how that affects you: something like oatmeal with fresh or frozen fruit for breakfast; brown rice and a variety of your favorite veggies for other meals; fruit for dessert (just as an example). There's a meal plan called "Mary's Mini" which you can find on drmcdougall.com that may be helpful
@@cindilacasa3291 yes, feel free to write to hello@plant52.com 🙂
Love your kitchen. And the video - except for the background music/noise. It sounds like someone is in the next room cracking a bullwhip.
Thanks for your feedback
Skip to the 5:30 mark.
is this for day 1?day 1 is 1090 calories - how do I know the grams of fat and protein and carbs from the percentages?
also for 725 caloriies? how would i do that
The breakfast demo here is actually for all 5 days - it's the only meal that stays the same throughout our entire fast. To get the FMD grams of fat vs protein vs carbs, you'll want to use something like cronometer.com - punch in all of your food and it'll show you the total percentages of macronutrients (fat, protein, carbs) and from there you can adjust each food type until you hit the right macro percentages!
Does the guide include substitutes in case someone can’t do cashews or carrots, for example?
I will add to it (thanks for the great question) since others have had the same questions. I’ll provide a nut free version. To substitute specific ingredients, I’ll provide directions on how to do that - I’d love to do that for each request but it takes hours at times to adjust!
I have just bought your meal plan guide - im curious about nut free or fruit free versions if you can share that :) i did not see it anywhere … i also dont like carrots :p and like to avoid even natural sugars
Am I reading it correctly, the pdf of the menu is $52?
Yes, that's correct! I realize I provide the full menu for all days in this video anyway :) (at the 3:58 mark). The PDF includes an organized grocery list, requirements (also included in this video), recommendations, and what I find to be most useful (apart from the menu) are a list of tips & guidelines. There's also a full playlist on this channel: bit.ly/3ISmgrI // it also includes a fasting course and access to two live group fasts twice a year. Too much value for $52, maybe but that's how I'm starting this...
Any dupes for the bar. L drink or pills?
I believe ProLon sells their bars separately but not sure if they’re the exact same ones that come in their FMD kits. 🤔 For pills/supplements, we don’t add any to our DIY menu but if you usually take supplements, you can keep taking them during a DIY fast 🙂
Was there a recipe for lunch and dinner?
Here you go 🙂

Thank you. I actually found them after I wrote this. had your breakfast yesterday. Going to buy the ingredients for your lunch, dinner and snack today. @@plant52_
why not just use the urine ketone test strips?
Is that more accurate than measuring the blood? I would prefer that!
@@plant52_ I don't think it's more accurate - just more convenient than having to prick yourself. And cheaper.
@@d0ubtingThom4s I would prefer that vs pricking myself so thanks for the suggestion!
Excellent video.
Can you please provide a full 5 day meal plan for the mimicking diet?
Also, do men and women follow the same quantity of food, considering men are usually larger than women and need more food. These small portions of food might be satisfying for a woman but not for a man.
Thank you.
At about the 4 min mark of this video, I show the entire menu for the full 5 days (you can also follow the link in the description and purchase the fasting guide). I'll be making some adjustments to it soon but anyone who's purchased it will get those too. For men and women, Longo's ProLon package includes the same calories and portions since their clinical trials showed benefits regardless of gender.
Will I become an Asian by following this diet?
🤣
what do u do with the excess? what a waste
I store it in Tupperware for my next meals
