I have started my diet 6 months ago started 235. Now I'm 169 👗👗❤❤👠now this became a lifestyle so happy I'm now a size 4 in jeans my goal weight is 150 by February Edit February 25 I'm now 155 ❤❤❤❤❤❤
My goal is to shed 100 lbs: I’m down 20lbs and I have 80lbs remaining. I feel great because I’m doing this for me. I have back issues and I hope to elevate some of the pain that I occasionally deal with. Dr. Nina thanks for sharing your accomplishment!
Currently releasing 80lbs. 215lbs goal weight 135lbs. Green smoothie in the mid morning, 100% whole grain with homemade nut butter or avocado. Tons and tons of vegetables wild salmon and quinoa. Seeds, sea moss, elderberries tea and gooseberries are an every day thing for me.
Baby when I tell you I've found some oldies but goodies about your journey 😍😍😍. I mean I was literally listening to them this morning on my way to work. And one lead me to another and all I can say is thank you. Thank you for sharing
You were my inspiration to lose weight for good! I also have HS and your video, really gave me hope that I could reduce the pain from my disease. I’ve lost 30 pounds so far and plan to lose 30 more! So thank you Dr. Nina! 😭
I love listening to you, you are so upbeat. Yes I have to have a piece of cake sometimes also. The way I lost my weight was I ate 1200-1400 calories per day and logged on MFP and ate 100 gr of carbs or less a day. A lady at my gym did this and lost 160 lbs. I needed to lose 40 and I did it, had it off for 2 years, feel so much better. Keto was too strict for me but low carb has worked good. I love your videos about get that crappy food out of the house and keep busy when you want to eat. These tips have helped a lot.
My extra weight bothers my hormones and emotions, I know I need this, and thank you for this! When I was working the 16/8 is perfect when you busy, you don't think about food until "lunch time" but spending more time at home I need more willpower or change my schedule.
Dr. Nina, let me tell you.. I've been discouraged about my journey lately because even though I have been working out and trying my best to eat right I haven't gotten to my goal weight yet. I was about to just say forget it but this video came right on time! You are so inspiring, thank you for sharing ❤️
Thanks for another informative video Dr. Nina! Mainly what we see is weight loss gimmicks and how to lose weight super fast versus making it a lifestyle to keep the weight off. The fact you’ve kept this up for years is inspirational ❤️
Giiiiirrrrllllll!!!! I'm so proud of your growth and endurance with continuing your lifestyle. I've tried several times to start losing weight. I've gone to the gym for a day or so but always feel self conscious about my weight so it leads to me not going back. I love how you started working out at home and built up yourself to go out and do so, I'm definitely going to do that. No more TRYING, only DOING this year! Thanks for sharing 💙
Hi DR. Nina, I am glad u mention 310 nutrition. I started on it Dec. 13, I have only lost 4lbs as of today Jan 16 but that is because of me. I am having a hard time changing my eating habits, however I am not giving up.
Hello Dr. Nina, This video came at a great time for me. Thanks for reminding me and other we need to love who we are now and treat ourselves with more love and respect our journey. Much love.
I have fallen back a few times, but I have to stay accountable for my weight loss and feeling better. I will be 47 this year and need to loose about 75-150 lbs. Thank you for the inspiration to keep moving forward.
My goal is to decrease my body fat percentage and get down to 25% body fat. I will no longer be a slave to a number on the scale. Thank you for the videos they are helpful and reinforce the goals i have set for myself this year.
I really appreciate this video. I have basically been boomeranging from one diet to the next and have not been successful. I am at my highest weight. A real struggle. This video is inspirational, and I realize I have to really work on my mindset.
You hit the nail on the head about treating yourself with something other than food! I just got my 6 month milestone of being vegan and instead of a cupcake I challenged myself to eat raw vegan for 6 days! 💪
Very encouraging video. I loved what you said it's not about an outfit or event but it's forever and it's for me. I'm doing the 16:8 intermittent fasting and it's been pretty good. Also appreciated about taking small steps. I'm not a water drinker but been trying to be consistent with a certain amount and now ready to add on. Thank you for sharing your journey and encouragement
Another great video-I been contemplating surgery back and forth but something on the inside of me keep saying stay on the journey. I need to prove to myself I can do this for me. I cancelled my consultation last week and then the thoughts came back and I know that's the enemy trying to wear me down but I'm not gonna fall for it. It's too may other people losing this weight the hard way so I might was well get with the program-pray for a sister!!!
I have to say a huge thank you, first, for your videos. You're so very encouraging while also helping to keep us realistic about body and mental health. Thank you so, so much. As for what I've done to help me go from 320 to now 298, just drinking two to three of my 40 oz bottles of water, eating cucumber chips for a crunchy snack. No more soda except on my 'free' day, I drink a filtered milk with 6 grams of carbs as opposed to the usual 20+. I can't leave my house because of my agoraphobia and social anxiety, but I set my microwave timer for 15 minutes and walk a circuit around my kitchen, dining room, and living room. I also have a set of light weights for strength training. Less potatoes, and more couscous and quinoa.
Praise GOD my journey is going to be wonderful and victorious. Dr. Nina you given me so many good tips as I go forward. Thank you so so much with the knowledge , wisdom and understanding you have shared with us. This is going to be song to sing when it's all over with. Love you my sister and may GOD continue to bless and keep you.
This video was super empowering! I don’t know if it’s because I’m going through a health journey or because I saw your passion to inform people on their power to properly care from themselves. Nevertheless it was awesome!
I have lost 43 pounds so far. I work out 4 to 5days a week. I use the 16:8 intermediate fasting and workout with a trainer once a week. I also cut out beef and pork. Drinking more water help me and staying away from the sugary drinks. I’m hoping to lose another 30 pounds.
Thank you so much for all of your help and sharing your journey! Very inspiring! With the HS how did you work out without irritating the wounds? I'm trying to lose weight but it hard with the HS.
I have hit the wall of frustration with my body and how I eat and live. I really love your advice and mantra of treating your body well now, caring for it while on the journey and not after, with a focus on eating whole foods and embracing your body as it is and as it will be. My goal is to drop a few dress sizes (current at 22-24 AU) and maintain an exercise habit while trying to manage my mental health, which is my biggest trouble (besides sugar. Sugar is the devil). Right now the plan is along the lines of your tips, smaller food portions, better food on a whole, hydrate, and start easy. You've really taken a weight off my shoulders with your videos and I'm very grateful. Plus, ho damn, you've such a lovely presence, you're a delight to listen to.
Hi, Dr. Nina. First, I'd like to say I appreciate your willingness to always be informative and encouraging. I've seen many of your videos and you stay educating us. Second, if you don't mind me asking, I'm curious to know your age. You look great, Sis.
Thanks for posting this video. I have recently decided that I really need to make a change for my life. I truly needed to see this video today. Taking little steps for big results.
I find myself looking for that "Hey Ya'Ll" greeting everyday. So glad I found your channel... I've been trashing my money with trainer programs but I still haven't lose so much weight
Thank you for this video! Very excellent. Ive been a subscriber for a looong time. And i want to tell you. Your beauty and growth is extraordinary! Xoxo thx again. So proud of you~
Hi Dr. Nina! I love your page and all the information you share😃 I need some advice. Diagnosed with Sarcoidosis of lungs in 2016. Took high doses of Prednisone initially, then tapered off for 1 year. As a result, my body was out of whack big time. I gained 50lbs but recently shed 40 of it over past 6 months. Have never had issues with weight previously but the steroids🙄. Was diagnosed last year November 2019 with Sarcoidosis spreading to my liver. Was told I have to go on steroids starting at 50 mg for 1 month then 40 for another month. In addition, taking an immunosuppressant, which has some many side effects. Have spoken with my doctor regarding other alternatives and I'm told that's my treatment regimen because the damage of the Sarcoidosis to my liver. My question to you is concerning the side effect of weight gain from the steroid. What can I do for the next 2 months to minimize this side effect? I have changed my eating habits previously with the assistance of a personal trainer and work out 4-5 times per week. Any advice is greatly appreciated😄
Love your channel. Very good video. Please follow the advice given especially about not telling people your plans. Some people don't have your best interests at heart. They want you to fail or compete with you.
My best advice to myself is to be consistent. Feelings change, moods change but discipline is constant. I work out whether I feel like it or not. Someone told me that I need to learn to enjoy working out! I don't but my health depends on it I eat clean and get exercise 😉😁
I’m not even trying to lose weight or looking to diet. I have no idea why am I watching this video. I guess I just like watching your videos and hearing you talk, LOL.
Thank You so much for this. I been so focused on what my ideal weight should look like. You changed my mindset. I will take care of the body that I do have. I will then get to my size awesome.
Dr. Nina I need videos about the doctoral journey from you if you can address loneliness, not understanding course content fully, keeping motivated, working on a schedule, how to seek a network of WOC doctoral students, not gaining weight during the program, mental healthy anything you're willing to share with me I would be grateful. Eventually I'll ask you about publishing articles but the other stuff is super important lol.
Any advice for what helps weight loss with hashimotos hypothyroidism? Only by staying under 700 calories a day have I stopped gaining weight. I do 2 hours a week strength training and 4 hours a week cardio, and no weightloss. I eat gluten free and sugar free already, as well as intermittent fasting but my weight stays the same.
The scale is the devil! It caused me to stop. I'm going to go back and staying away from that devil. Also, I'm transitioning my hair. Any tips, your hair is gorgeous as well.
I not really sure if will be in the same category on going on diet to lose weight. But I have notice I not as hungry as I used to be and my appetite is not the same like it used to be. Anyway every morning when I get home from work ( because I work the graveyard shift) I will drink about 2 or 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar ( the vinegar that have the mother in it) with warm water but it take so long from water from the faucet to get hot, So I put it microwave for an 1 minute. Go to the gym and exercise for about 30 - 45min. Come home make me something to eat. Afterwards do some chores around the house, then go to sleep. Get up have a glass of water before I eat dinner (try not to eat while you eating) and then drink a little more water after I eat. Also I after breakfast I cut up some fresh Ginger. And put and boil some water with cut up ginger in it. Once the water boil let cool down while I sleeping. Then I put in a water bottle with honey and drink that while I at work. I really don't how much I lost but my clothes a little loose also while at work every hour I walk around go down the stairs. The building where I work there 12 floors. Also the reason is the reason I green ginger tea is because I feel bloated sometimes. So did Ginger help me with bloating stomach and gas.
I lost 60 pounds and gained like 20 back because I went to college break 😭😭 don’t ask me how ashamed I am When I’m on my ass I don’t get things done and I become a couch potato ima have to learn to take walks like them white folks in my city even if it’s like 6 blocks weirdly when I go out I eat healthier. I have stopped eating bread and rice it’s sugar really ( I haven’t gained weight eating junk food when I didn’t eat rice because being Hispanic all the rice you eat everyday adds up alone !!!!!) I am going to cut off sugar soon I did it for 6 months and I swear the days were longer and I was happier not all sugar just added sugar and juices I already stopped drinking soda it causes osteoporosis my doctors told me and I’m high risk of it.
This is one of the most important videos I’ve watched Dr Nina! THANK YOU! I started the year with Keto. I KNOW I’ve lost weight, and I plan to stop Keto and continue IF in Feb - rest of my life. I would LOVE to know more about your academic background and current work, as I’m a psychology grad student and may have looked you up on google scholar 👀
You’re funny saying “Scales are the Devil” 😂 lol That’s actually a really good idea, to start measuring ourselves instead 😉 I’ll not be able to get away with telling all my ones anymore that I think there is something wrong with my washing machine cause it keeps shrinking my clothes 😂 haha 💋 💚 xx
I'm curious if anyone has PCOS. I've been working with my primary care, endocrinologist and dietitian and still have not been able to reduce weight post partum. Even when I I excerise, I don't reduce weight. I've tried low carb, fasting, strict diet per dietitian and I only keep gaining. It's frustrating to say the least. So, if anyone has a similar experience, I'd love to hear what worked for you!
Healing Virtue, LLC i have pcos, endo, & hypothyroidism the only diet that worked for was gluten & dairy free. I used the paleo diet to guide me. I walked half and hour to an hour 3-5 times a week. Once i stopped i gained weight, im trying to refocus again this new year. Talk to your doctors and see if dairy and gluten is an issue for you.
@@guatbabigirl I got checked for that. I am lactose intolerant but gluten isn't an issue for me. I went to a gastroenterologist too. Thanks for responding!
Healing Virtue, LLC girl I know! Pcos has been a battle for me. I got diagnosed when I was 20 and of course I learned how do manage my systems on my own. I’m still struggling with my weight but it will slowly all work out. And that’s good at least you know lactose is a no. How’s your water intake. I’m trying to up mine, pcos can have a lot of inflammation.
OMG! I need to lose at least 130 pounds. I'm subscribed, the bell is rung. Please share some protein recipes. I will be your biggest fan forever. I need help.
This video was exactly what I needed, and I'm convinced the universe placed this here for me. I stepped on the scale yesterday for the first time in months and was absolutely horrified. I was successful with losing weight in the past, and I KNOW I'm capable of doing it again. I'm making some changes ASAP!
Great video! I have tried keto diet but I only lost a pound a week. I tried vegan diet using boiled eggs in place of meat and I lost about 10 pounds after a week. Are you a strict vegan or do you eat some animal protein?

Any advice for what helps weight loss with hashimotos hypothyroidism? Only by staying under 700 calories a day have I stopped gaining weight. I do 2 hours a week strength training and 4 hours a week cardio, and no weightloss. I eat gluten free and sugar free already, as well as intermittent fasting but my weight stays the same.
Hi Dr.Nina what weightloss calculator do you recommend yes lol Im asking even before I played video
Thank you for sharing! Such an inspiration!
Thanks for the encouragement.

The scale is the devil! It caused me to stop. I'm going to go back and staying away from that devil. Also, I'm transitioning my hair. Any tips, your hair is gorgeous as well.
I not really sure if will be in the same category on going on diet to lose weight. But I have notice I not as hungry as I used to be and my appetite is not the same like it used to be. Anyway every morning when I get home from work ( because I work the graveyard shift) I will drink about 2 or 3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar ( the vinegar that have the mother in it) with warm water but it take so long from water from the faucet to get hot, So I put it microwave for an 1 minute. Go to the gym and exercise for about 30 - 45min. Come home make me something to eat. Afterwards do some chores around the house, then go to sleep. Get up have a glass of water before I eat dinner (try not to eat while you eating) and then drink a little more water after I eat. Also I after breakfast I cut up some fresh Ginger. And put and boil some water with cut up ginger in it. Once the water boil let cool down while I sleeping. Then I put in a water bottle with honey and drink that while I at work. I really don't how much I lost but my clothes a little loose also while at work every hour I walk around go down the stairs. The building where I work there 12 floors. Also the reason is the reason I green ginger tea is because I feel bloated sometimes. So did Ginger help me with bloating stomach and gas.
I lost 60 pounds and gained like 20 back because I went to college break 😭😭 don’t ask me how ashamed I am When I’m on my ass I don’t get things done and I become a couch potato ima have to learn to take walks like them white folks in my city even if it’s like 6 blocks weirdly when I go out I eat healthier.
I have stopped eating bread and rice it’s sugar really ( I haven’t gained weight eating junk food when I didn’t eat rice because being Hispanic all the rice you eat everyday adds up alone !!!!!)
I am going to cut off sugar soon I did it for 6 months and I swear the days were longer and I was happier not all sugar just added sugar and juices I already stopped drinking soda it causes osteoporosis my doctors told me and I’m high risk of it.
My mom can ALWAYS tell when I’ve gained weight... it never fails.
Can you make a video on how to clear stretch marks please
This is one of the most important videos I’ve watched Dr Nina! THANK YOU! I started the year with Keto. I KNOW I’ve lost weight, and I plan to stop Keto and continue IF in Feb - rest of my life. I would LOVE to know more about your academic background and current work, as I’m a psychology grad student and may have looked you up on google scholar 👀
Awesome! Sure! I will be sharing more of that as well! And the mentorship membership is coming soon! We will be doing a LOT of education there!
You’re funny saying “Scales are the Devil” 😂 lol That’s actually a really good idea, to start measuring ourselves instead 😉 I’ll not be able to get away with telling all my ones anymore that I think there is something wrong with my washing machine cause it keeps shrinking my clothes 😂 haha 💋 💚 xx
Awesome video!
I lost 160 pounds but I am still going back to my old habits
I'm curious if anyone has PCOS. I've been working with my primary care, endocrinologist and dietitian and still have not been able to reduce weight post partum. Even when I I excerise, I don't reduce weight. I've tried low carb, fasting, strict diet per dietitian and I only keep gaining. It's frustrating to say the least. So, if anyone has a similar experience, I'd love to hear what worked for you!
Healing Virtue, LLC i have pcos, endo, & hypothyroidism the only diet that worked for was gluten & dairy free. I used the paleo diet to guide me. I walked half and hour to an hour 3-5 times a week. Once i stopped i gained weight, im trying to refocus again this new year. Talk to your doctors and see if dairy and gluten is an issue for you.
@@guatbabigirl I got checked for that. I am lactose intolerant but gluten isn't an issue for me. I went to a gastroenterologist too. Thanks for responding!
@@guatbabigirl the most frustrating thing about pcos, if they're any pauses in life that reduces excercise, the weight adds swiftly! It's frustrating.
Healing Virtue, LLC girl I know! Pcos has been a battle for me. I got diagnosed when I was 20 and of course I learned how do manage my systems on my own. I’m still struggling with my weight but it will slowly all work out. And that’s good at least you know lactose is a no. How’s your water intake. I’m trying to up mine, pcos can have a lot of inflammation.
Love u I have learned a lot from you and thanks for sharing 💜
OMG! I need to lose at least 130 pounds. I'm subscribed, the bell is rung. Please share some protein recipes. I will be your biggest fan forever. I need help.
Great Inspiration!!!
This video was exactly what I needed, and I'm convinced the universe placed this here for me. I stepped on the scale yesterday for the first time in months and was absolutely horrified. I was successful with losing weight in the past, and I KNOW I'm capable of doing it again. I'm making some changes ASAP!
There you go! Keep that faith! You got this!
Great video! I have tried keto diet but I only lost a pound a week. I tried vegan diet using boiled eggs in place of meat and I lost about 10 pounds after a week. Are you a strict vegan or do you eat some animal protein?
This a great idea. I imagine boiled eggs are very filling. They’d also be easy to take to work for lunch.
In 2020 I'm transitioning into a fully vegetarian diet.
Previously I've been mostly vegetarian but still allowed myself to have meat.
YES #NewYearNewMe!!!💙💙💙 Dr. Nina!!
