I was diagnosed as a type two diabetic and started watching your videos to get ideas on low carb meals but found out from my doctor that I can’t count net carbs , but I have to take into consideration the total carbs. I wrote everything down in a notebook. I’ve lost 90 pounds over the course of two years. I didn’t lose anything last year but I’ve recently started losing again. I see my doctor twice a year and do not check daily blood sugar or take any medication for diabetes. Every thing is diet controlled. I’m down to 219 from 309, but I figured my body had to learn to live at one weight for a while before I started losing again. You were my inspiration. I turn 70 next week.

I lost 35lbs on Keto in a short time. I was constantly tracking and making sure I hit goals. I have definitely hit my goals and I feel amazing. However, I was also feeling too restricted and started having a bites of things I wouldnt have on Keto. I felt I was starting to fall off the wagon. Im not really sure where I am, either low carb or keto but I think I am in between. I am now under my weight goal and I sometimes fluxuate because I give myself the opportunity to eat whatever once and a while but not too much of it, just to satisfy. But I always end up under my weight when I refocus. Starting Keto was one of the best things for me because now I pay more attention to ingredients, carbs, fats etc which has been a world of wonders for me and my family. I dont force keto/low carb on anyone but myself however my family sometimes doesn't even realize some of the substitutes I make and they still love it.

This was so helpful. I've done keto in the past and lost 50lbs from it, but I gained it back. I have a better understanding about food now, so I plan on doing it again. No matter what "diet" I've done, I've always felt the best doing keto. The weight falls off, my skin flourishes, my energy is through the roof, and my cravings are non-existent. The only con is the restrictiveness. But like you said, I want to focus on how I feel rather than the restriction. I've never tried low carb low fat. That's something I wouldn't mind giving a try.

When I started this journey I looked at several videos with this nutritionist explaining how to do intermittent fasting. I learned a lot with that and also cut everything white out my diet. I ran across your page explaining everything about low carb and it was a win win for me. I do intermediate fasting 18/6, and low carb it works for me. I want this to be a lifestyle so I will be able to maintain my weight. It’s not easy but my support team is amazing. Good luck to everyone and I pray this is a start for healthy living.

I started on keto with time restricted eating (16/8) and lost almost 40 lbs. in about 7 months. Goal was 45 so I’m not quite there. However, I believe that I have added muscle while losing fat, so despite not seeing much change in weight, I am still seeing change in what my body looks like - body composition is still changing after 10 months. Yay! After that 7 months, I started adding more carbs and protein and less fat. I want my body to use my fat for fuel, not only what comes from food. My current macros aim at 95g protein, 40g net carbs and 80g fat which provides about 1,260 calories per day. That is a deficit of about 350 calories on average. (I’m small and have a resting metabolic rate of only 1,070 calories). I continue to do the time restricted eating, but vary days and times with 2 free days per week. It may have slowed weight loss, but I am more energetic now than a year ago, eat a greater variety of foods than when I started, and have a better view of the future. My former lifestyle probably contributed to both Covid and cancer, neither of which I would care to experience again!

I've lost 45 lbs doing keto. Now, I do dirty keto, with IF, and I'm maintaining extremely well. My advice for the low carb diet is to really pay attention as to how the extra carbs affect you.

I do a combo of both. I've noticed that I feel the best doing this. #1 I don't drink my sugar so water, coffee and tea mostly. #2 I'm just conscious of what I'm eating. #3 I eat when I'm hungry most days that might not be until noon sometimes it's at 9am I listen to my body and eat when Im hungry. If I have a desert this is where keto comes in I'll make something low carb or keto so I can eat it and not feel horrible. I have lost 30lbs kinda slowly which with my health issues is better for me. My problem is activity or working out. I'm working through it but I think if I get consistent with working out I'll drop more weight. I don't do labels nor do I track or test for ketones hitting ketosis is not my goal it's feeling better.

I have recently started back onto keto and have lost 11lbs. I am a huge snacker and I have a huge sweet tooth but I have found ways around it. I tend to keep my carbs in the 30-35 net carb range and that works for me. Some days I may eat less carbs depending on what I am eating and some days I may eat more. But I have found that I do better at eating if I do a little meal prepping ahead of time.

I really enjoyed doing keto for a little while. I felt the benefits in my insulin resistance and less hunger just within a few days. Much less crashes, my vision became much clearer, I wasn't hungry, my mood was more balanced. I did start to stall a bit in my weight loss towards the end. Unfortunately I had my gallbladder removed a few years ago and think it caught up with me, I was getting severe constipation on keto (even eating vegetables at every meal and lots of water) and within about a month of doing keto I got awful episode of not being able to digest any food, to the point where I could not eat anything for days and had many symptoms, my dr believes I had mild pancreatitis attack. So now I've been slowly doing a low carb, low fat diet but I'm much more hungry again and some of the crashes and sleepy mood are back, some of eyes issues are back (though not as bad) but I can't digest any fat right now so I have no other option, not even one egg without feeling sick for days. I am doing better digesting my food though with this very low fat and low carb diet incorporating a little bit of rice (like a couple of tablespoons) and eziekiel bread with my egg whites, soft vegetables, lean chicken and turkey. No dairy, almost no fat and no red meat. It's frustrating but I think I will have to stick with this for a while. I'm losing weight again because of the forced fasting and little food I've been consuming. So in conclusion I got sort of forced into low carb instead of keto since I have a lot of insulin resistance I was doing better on keto, my plan initially was to do that for a while until I lose enough weight and slowly transition. I'm going to stick to low carb though and I appreciate this break down. I hope you can do more low fat, low carb recipes for us!

I have been low carb on an off for about 17 years. I was a pro/am dancer as a young girl and burned lots of calories during that time in my life. I could eat anything back then..... I stopped dancing married a chef who was constantly feeding me high carb food (really good I might add) and the lbs just kept coming and coming because I didn't change the way I ate. Atkins came out which kickstarted me on the low carb way of life and with that I lost 90 lbs and kept it off for about 7 years then........ I quit smoking and gained back 60 of those lbs not because I was eating more cause I wasn't but because your metabolism changes so much. I started back with the low carb at the first of this year and have now taken off 30 of those lbs. As Mayra says low carb or keto is a lifestyle. Yes of course you can cheat. I do it all the time but I have much control over what I put in my mouth. I actually prefer lower carb foods as they don't give you that horrible heavy feeling after a meal. Low carb works for me so I feel like one of lucky ones.

I found that just cutting out process foods and only eating meat, eggs, vegetables (green) fruit (berries) and water and making an occasional keto friendly low carb love dessert, makes me feel so much better. I exercise by walking 6-8 miles a day, go to the gym for light weight lifting, circulation leg wrap for my lymphedema, 3 times a week for my Parkinson's therapy. I was able to get off meal and nightly insulin shot, I take 1 shot weekly now. I do use a lot of recipes from Low Carb Love. In 8 months I was able to lose 75 pounds and right now for over 2 months, I've been maintaining it. I'm happy with that amount of weight loss and I am happy that I am feeling so much healthier.

It's much harder for me because I'm type 2 so I need very restrictive and after a while it just feels like I can't do this anymore. So this time I'm doing keto but allowing low carb moments, no sugar but occasional bread or potatoes and other healthy carbs when I have a moment or am in a public space with limited options. I don't have a scale so I can't tell you how much I've lost because I've got a scale compulsion. I am feeling better, the swelling and bloating has gone away so I know it's working, it just takes time. I also have the challenge of being a woman approaching the senior years which also slows it down. I have the advantage of knowing it works.

I'm OMAD for 5 months so far down 65lbs I got my labs done for my regular physical and the numbers could not have been any better. So I will continue on. Never hungry with one meal a day and it's easier to try and keep the carbs at 20grams. I definitely need to in a workout of some kind Thanks for the videos

At one point I was 320lbs got down to 194 after weight loss surgery and maintained it doing low carb for 4 years I had a triple bypass in 2017 and due to inactivity and depression I regained 60lbs. I use keto recipes as a tool to replace the bad things I used to eat but mainly eat low carb I'm at 233lbs now down from 265lbs a year ago. Sorry forgot to put this in my last post.

I lost 35 pounds the first year doing low carb with 2 cheat days a week. Then I upgraded it to keto no cheat days and lost 35 pounds in 5 months. Now I’m doing keto with 3 loosely PSMF based days a week and 1 cheat day a month and I’ve been losing 5 pounds a month. I’ve still got about 25-35 pounds I’d like to lose but once I get there I’ve always planned on going back to low carb with less cheat days than before. I am already no longer diabetic and my cholesterol and vitamins are good. I think it makes it easier if you start with low carb first but if you need that glory and praise from others about your weight loss to keep you motivated then go straight keto. Nobody noticed my first 35 pounds because it was gradual. I could tell but nobody said anything.

Actually, what it all boils down to, is what we’re “willing” to do. I’m to old and too tired of it to be counting macros, carbs, calories etc. It just ain’t natural. LOL I’ve been off sugar for 3 years. Can’t start the cravings back. I do low carb. No starches except rarely a little corn or a little potato in soup. Love your videos. Especially products I don’t experiment with. Going to look for “Skinny Pop” popcorn.

As a type 2 insulin dependent person, low carb/keto for me is measured in total carbs. There is no way I can keep my readings low enough with net carbs. Was on keto for 3 years and lost all the weight I needed to. Then cov hit and I went off for a year...big mistake. Back on keto but having really slow results. I am 73...I feel great on keto.

Love your channel-- both the recipes & conversations like this. Over 20 years I've successfully lost weigh many times on a lowfat diet (ouch)...within 2 years gained it back each time, so I definitely relate to "yo-yo" dieting. Gradually that strict lowfat WW/JennyCraig style diet stopped working & found myself frustrated & depressed. Last year I started reading about unhealthy carbs, processed foods, and unhealthy fats & I started a clean low-carb diet, lost about 15 lbs before hitting a plateau, then I transitioned to a Keto-biotic diet (max 50g healthy carbs per day) and have so far lost an additional 20 lbs. I have another 30 lbs to go & struggle with finding the right formula. I find that if I get too set in a specific routine with diet and my fasting schedule, I inevitably hit a plateau & it seems like my body just reaches for a set point, so I have to alter course often to keep losing weight. But it's worth it. I feel like this lifestyle has changed my life, made me feel 20 years younger -- no more inflammation & arthritis, no more digestive issues. I generally find it quite easy to follow the diet itself, as it works with my lifestyle, but I do worry about how I will maintain it when I travel (which I haven't done since I switched into Keto). I'm planning a cruise in the fall and although I think I can easily avoid bread, rice, pasta & potatoes, I'm a little worried about how I will resist all those lovely desserts ;-). If you have any tips about breaking plateaus or about maintaining a healthy lifestyle while traveling, I'd love to hear them. Thank you!

I'm currently doing Keto. I tried it in 2019 and quit after 3 weeks even though I lost 13 lbs. I've been on Keto since the second week of July and had one slip that lasted for about 4 days. I got discouraged because I stopped losing weight and my ketosis kept lowering even though I was staying under 25 carbs per day. I realized that maybe net carbs weren't working for me and I need to count total carbs. I also started to fall into what made me stop keto the first time. My sister lost a lot of weight on keto a few years ago and I kinda treat her like the expert but I also was doing research and getting recipes off youtube and shopping lists. I realized that I was most successful when I just ate certain veggies, cheese, poultry and fish. I don't eat beef, pork, goat or liver. The minute I started buying stuff like almond flour, guacamole (I really don't like the taste of avocado), heavy cream, keto macaroni noodles, keto bread, cream cheese my ketone levels began to drop. I don't eat these things when I'm off keto often except maybe bread and trying to incorporate foods that I don't like and rarely cook with set me back. I never use flour even when I'm not on keto. I almost never eat deserts because I'm a savory eater and I prefer pasta, pizza, fried chicken, quesadillas and cheesesteaks. Heavy cream had way too many calories and fat for me and I was forcing myself to eat the foods I bought. One recipe I tried from youtube had me using a half stick of butter and a cup of heavy cream. I didn't realize that when you're already obese and have tons of fat on your body that you don't need to eat high fat on keto. I was working out but the damage was done. I think the person who posted the recipe was probably maintaining. But that was the beginning of my weight loss stalling and yoyoing between the same 4 lbs for 12 days. It was discouraging to go from 2.7 ketones one day to 1.6 and then ultimately 0.3 ketones. Which caused my slip up. I just completed a 72hr fast to get back on track. I also wasn't eating keto pasta or keto bread everyday it was a twice a week type thing and I was eating below the serving and it still messed with my progress. Even when I didn't eat those things for a week my ketones still wasn't raising which leads me to believe that I need to count total carbs and that net carbs aren't working for me. I may also be one of those people who can only eat 10 carbs like you mentioned in your video. I'm currently 284 lbs and I plan on switching to low carb when I get around 200 lbs and ultimately getting below 180. The first time I ever remember weighing myself was in middle school and I was in the 180s. In my early 20s I stayed around 215 and then 238 in my mid 20s. By the time I reached my late 20s I was around 276. I ended up losing weight and then covid happened and I gained 40 lbs and now in my 30s I was mainly around 304-307. My heaviest weight was 311. So my ultimate goal is to get below the weight I was when I first started paying attention to my weight. By some miracle I'm not diabetic even though most of my father's side of the family is. I do think lower carb is something that I can stick with and maintain long term but for right now I want to drop the weight as quickly as possible and Keto was working before I started buying those ingredients. I just need to lower my carb intake a little bit more and stop trying to eat keto versions of foods I didn't eat when I wasn't on keto. Also understanding how my food tastes differs from others. My sister loves experimenting with foods and has a sweet tooth. Listening to her cost me a lot of money. The first time around Keto became too expensive to maintain because I was also buying Keto ice cream, Keto snacks (I rarely snack) and other Keto foods that went to waste. I wasn't intermittent fasting either. Now I try to stick with recipes that are close to foods I actually eat. I have no desire in making my own bread or wraps or deserts.

I am a type 2 diabetic, and I have been a combo low carb/ keto lifestyle for the past 3 years. So in one way, I am keto because I do under 20 g of carbs per day and I do a lot of intermittent fasting every day and I’m doing a couple hours exercise every day too. I don’t do high fat though, so that is where I am low carb, because I usually eat low fat, high protein, except I don’t snack a lot. In the past three years, I have lost about 55 pounds doing low-carb/keto diet. I am 5’7” and I weigh 135 pounds now. I would like to lose another 15 pounds. I didn’t start doing low-carb/keto to lose weight, I did it more to try to get my blood sugar under control and lower my blood sugar naturally, and become more healthy. The reason why I probably only lost 55 pounds in three years is because I don’t do the high fat in keto, I am a vegetarian, so I don’t eat meat. I eat eggs, fish, vegetables, and some lower carb/ low sugar fruit like berries. I have managed to lower my blood sugar A1C from 10 down to around 5.3. The low carb/keto is my lifestyle now not a diet!!! Watching low carb love, and Beat Diabetes channels have really helped me turn my health problems around!!!😅❤

I really agree with your tips on listening to how your body feels as you go on a journey. Listening to my body has helped me realize the macro balance that makes me feel the best. Even if that means eating maybe 20 carbs more per day in the cold winter months than my lower carb days in the summertime. I don't know exactly why my body trends this way but I listen and it has worked for me to feel my best.

I think if you're used to eating a standard American diet filled with carbs, then it's best to begin with Keto help reset your palate and curb your sugar and carb cravings. Once you've been on Keto a few months, then if you feel comfortable, you can transition to low-carb. I totally agree with something you said in another video, the problem with Keto is that you're eating so much fat, that as soon as you go over your carb limit a tiny bit, you will store all that extra fat on your body. So you really have to stick to it all the time and never "cheat". I now do low-carb/high protein/moderate fat along with IF and I feel amazing, and it allows for more flexibily in my diet.

Thank you so much for your channel Mayra, such a great resource! I was on keto and found it effective for weight loss, and enjoyed the high fat foods. However after discovering my ldl cholesterol has significantly increased to over 6.2 mmol (240mg) whilst on keto, I am switching to low carb, low healthy fats, high protein as well. I also found a problem with the restrictive nature of keto and don't think I could have sustained it long term (even if it had not had the problem with ldl). Incidently my triglycerides and HDL levels were excellent on keto. Im looking forward to adding back a larger variety of fruits and vegetables and the "occassional" piece of sourdough toast with my poached egg under low carb.😂

For anyone out there if you have back problems losing weight can put off surgery or even not have to have it.

Great video !! I’ve learn a lot but there is something that everyone should know about weight loss !! It’s really simple : Calories In calories out , if your not below maintenance you won’t lose fat !! That’s why exercise/cardio/High neat is really important for those who don’t want to count their calories intake!! So right now I’m doing 8/16 fasting with less than 20G of carbs and a 500 deficit calories and at least 30 mins of cardio/days !!! I can loose 2lbs/per week! Higher than this it’s not recommended!!! Oh and yes Keto it’s restricting and for me it’s feel like a diet !! But I love the grind so much !! 😊

I did great on keto. I think the issue a lot of people have is that they don’t go into it with the right mindset. You have to really want to do it. I know a lot of people who have tried and they did great getting in all their fats but wanted to “ease” into cutting their carb intake. A high carb high fat diet does not work lol what I love about keto is that once you are fat adapted you are ALWAYS fat adapted. So if you decided to take a break from it, you can easily go back to it.
