please ignore the negativity in your comments section... it seems like there are slot of people that think everyone has to eat just the like them. .. body's and diets are not one size fits all! I am a diabetic and I have tried being a vegetarian(couldn't`t let go of shrimp sorry) didn't work for me made me feel sicker... all of those carbs converted to sugar and kept imbalanced... I've have started the switch to keto and I have lost 16lbs and I feel great... people need to stop bashing other because the lifestyle isn't for them, makes you look ignorant and bigoted....
I keep seeing many keto dieters just eating meat, eggs, and dairy with very limited vegetables. I'm glad to see you include veggies because I can't live without my veggies. I do a lot of cardio and I have adopted more of your style of eating. Thank you for the tips because I'm having difficulty getting enough fat. I never thought about adding fat to tea. Coconut oil, here I come!
My day is 4 egg yolks + one whole egg + 30-50g of butter omlet, then i added lots of greens with applecidervinegar garlic and olive oil. My second 'meal' is basicly fat shake contains - 180 ml of heavy cream (30%), 2 tea spoons of organic cacao, 3 table spoons of butter and 2 table spoons of coconut oil. i but to boil everything, mix and add some cinnamon. drink half of it, and leave the rest (when its cold). After couple of hours i mixed 1 table spoon of flax seed and chia seed with littlebit water, waiting and adding it to my shake (have a pudding). Last meal is a meat, sometimes beef, sometimes fatty pork but mostly organic chicken (just a little bit, i dont eat more than 1g of protein per kg of body) and thats all. Its about 1700-1900 kcal which is a little bit too much but i want to gain weigh. And of course bucnhc of veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, spinach) in supe with bone broth or just water and blendered. Its make me super full and energetic. sorry for my english.
She had one single carrot-- which has 6.5 net carbs. Really not that bad, especially as it seems she's trying to stay under 30-40g and not strict keto 20 g of net carbs a day.
John Matthews I wouldn’t consider ONE carrot a big deal, if it’s counted into the macros and you stay under your daily limit. (If I add something like that, I get pretty anal and only add a little... and I actually measure by weight, to be more accurate.) If you’ve watched some of her other videos, you’ll see that she also sometimes does what she calls “carb ups” where she eats higher carb items, like rice and potatoes... which other keto folks avoid. (My version of “carb up” is different than hers, too. I just up my carb limit, during that day... with keto “approved” foods. Ex: instead of... 25 carbs/day I up to 35 carbs that day.)
I'm not sure. Fat doesn't affect insulin like protein and carbs. This doesn't mean prorein and carbs are bad and fat is a free for all. Fat still has a lot of calories. Intermittent fasting is used as a tool anyways so you can eat more later.
Just because you eat it in your diet does not mean you absorb the correct form, it has to do with methylation.. many people have genetic mutations that inhibit the conversion of folate and B12 both.. This is known as an MTHFR mutation. I personally have a MTHFR mutation. I hope that helps! It is actually difficult to get too much B12.
I've always thought that I was eating way too much for my body mass index and this video reassures me that it is the quality of the food, and not the quantity. Looks fabulous! :)
Leanne, I love your videos and work and I can't wait for your weekly Podcasts because it's helped me so much. I've followed low fat, low carb for 12 years and went lchf about 7/8 months ago. I started implementing IM after listening to your Podcast with Jason Fung and a simple 16:8 made such an impact to my body composition. It's not easy breaking the "brain-wash" we've been fed that you'll get fat if you eat fat, but once I started eating fat it was truly liberating for me. You're doing an amazing job - keep it up!
I'm diabetic and doing this whole change of eating was a vegetarian vegan. For 30 years now eating meat as I'm low iron to and take iron supplements did feel weird eating. Meat but I'm feeling healthy. 😘 and a massive well done to you 😘
+dollyrocker40 Of course You are cus vegan diets are good for temporary body cleansing. Not mention that vegan diets are mostly based on high carb sugar food like apples or bananas. I litteraly see on youtube how one 'keep it carb' vegan adding pure sugar to his water to keep it carb. what an idiot.
This rocket fuel latte is made with a huge amount of fat, which is not a problem on Keto but not when fasting. Intermittent fasting is fasting = no calories although a little cream is okay. Refer Jason Fung and anyone who knows about intermittent fasting. She shouldn't be giving wrong advice to people.
Have you tried using metylcobalamin instead of cyanocobalamin for your b-12? I use this form in a sublingual tablet, I like the brand Superior Source, and the ones I get also have folate and b-6. It got my numbers back up without shots.
+HealthfulPursuit You're welcome! I just finished eating a fatty lowcarb meal. I am a little scared eating like this after having been eating Lowfat and moderate to prolly high carbs ,not sure cause I never really paid attention to carbs. Lol But I'm gonna keep at it for now.
Just had the rocket fuel latte--that stuff is amazingly delicious. Are the veggies on your lunch plate all raw or steamed or what? Thanks so much for sharing the specifics--really helped.
Hi, what exactly is the criteria that does NOT break your fast when you have that latte? I do IF and I always wonder how much cream is possible in my coffee without disrupting the IF when I eventually eat after 12. Thank you.
For your latte recipe what exactly makes it 'white chocolate'? (It sounds delicious but I hate brown chocolate and I didn't see anything in the recipe that would make it 'white chocolate' flavored)?
why are people so harsh? if this is what works for here then so be it! she's not forcing you to eat the food she eats and i don't think she cares if you criticize her.
hi, when i heard about the tea for your gut made me realize that I have to ask you or anyone following this lifestyle their thought on drinking kombucha. I brew my one and I've gotten my gut to a way better state, anyways is kombucha ok to drink on a ketogenic diet?
Hi! just discovered you. I've been doing keto for a year now but do not do as much veggies as you do, they seem to have lots more carbs than most people think ... but you are successful with your keto lifestyle. so I guess I still have LOTS to learn.
fabricpixie oh, maybe I should've asked how many carbs you try to stick to daily. I've heard that 'one' can eat up to 70 carbs a day and still be keto, but I'm still staying at less than 20carbs a day or sometime up to 25, but not often.
Ok. Diet heavy in fats and protein (mainly avocado, coconut, eggs, bison, beef, salmon, tuna) after five weeks raised my cholesterol levels from elevated to high. I go back in 3 months to get blood done again. So, do I double down or accept that high fat diet is not for me? Shit. Lost weight though....
First off you are adorable, I love your personality! I was thinking about your vegan keto plan and have a question. Is it possible to be in sustainable ketosis with most days with fats, more of the low carb vegetables, protein from juiced greens & hemp seeds? Maybe throw in eggs and fish 1-2 times a week? Is it still likely to keto adapt?
holy living It's so hard to say whether you would become adapted as EVERYONE is so different! Sounds like you have a solid plan and it looks great. If you can do nuts, they're great too! I'd say: give it a whirl and see what your body does!
Your right! I can keep the higher fat way of vegan going and see what happens. In the past when I've increased fat but was eating all kinds of veggies I'd gain fat so obviously I didn't turn to fat burning mode even on a No starch vegan diet. Maybe bc it was higher calories than I needed and regardless where that comes from we store the excess.
holy living The High fat type diet is generally just an excuse to eat lots of meat and dairy. You could eat 5 lbs of Kale and a pound of Flax seed and it would work I guess. But Strawberries,Sweet-potatoes, Bananas,Beans and Apples are so good for you...So why bother?
Ok! So I've been on a LCHF Keto Diet for a few days now, but the highest number of calories I have been having is 900 - 1,200 cal. a day! How do I up my calories without adding more carbs OR knocking out of ketosis?
+HealthfulPursuit So its been a few months and I was off keto for a while but I've been back on Keto for a week and a day (although I will consider Wednesday a week just because I ate meat again last Wednesday), but now I have added more fats (like the goodness that is MCT oil) and I am meeting my calories!! :D Woo! Also, have lost 7 pounds this week! Don't know if it is water, even though it probs is, but I feel great! (minus the burning quadriceps.)
Can you do video on Bone broth home made or the best one to buy.? That's the only thing missing from my diet. I should be able to make it with a vitamix blender? Do you make your own or buy? Thanks :)
i think im in love.... after the whole cast iron dish... just saying. keep up the good work!! been doing variations of lc,lchf, paleo for about 5 years. starting weight 365lbs currently 198lbs.
You should consider going vegan! My sugar cravings are very low because I am getting a sufficient amount of carbs. :) Check out Forks Over Knives, it is an awesome documentary!
How do you cook foods without oil? In your other video you said to only add oils after cooking, does that mean you use animal fats to cook so the food doesn't stick to the pan?
I've been struggling with low carb, not much success due to thyroid issues. I have just watched your video and I have a question. After doing my research, I thought I am only allowed 1 to 1 1/2 cups of veggies a day?? And no root veggies? I imagine you are consuming more veggies because you are maintaining your weight, not persuing weight loss anymore? It's confusing, only because everyone has differing opinions.
exactly150 Hey! My clients who have thyroid imbalances do better with a touch more carbs. After I calculated this day, it worked out to be about 50g net of carbs. This still allows me to be in fat-burning mode without getting too crazy about vegetables. I always say - you shouldn't have to count your kale.
I did. I went on M Dougall's diet. Holy crap, I gained 10lbs in less than 2 weeks. In order for me to lose anything, albeit very very slow, is to consume not more than 10 g carbs/day. I have severe metabolic damage.
Healthful Pursuit advocates a diet high in good quality fats as well. My son is an oncologist and he now puts all his patients on a ketogenic diet. If done properly, actually increases HDL and lowers LDL. Also studies are being done that high fat diet stops metastatic disease. Fat is no longer demonized.
Im 15 days in keto, ive losing only 2 lbs!! (Im overweight btw) I feel bloated,constipated,even I feel more 'clear' and with more energy Im about to give up,I use to go to the bathroom (#2) up3 times a day,now Im lucky if am going once every two days Im suffering of water retention as well :( Any advice??
Im vegan but i like to look around and see what other people are doing and it seems like you need more fiber in your diet. Im not gonna say go vegan but it would really help, but do whatever the fuuuucck you wanna do lol
+mrshppy76 Here's my advice, for what it is worth. First make sure you are getting all the food that you should on the Keto plan, also, importantly, drink the amount of water recommended. If you still feel very out of sorts and have the problems with constipation, then try cutting back on meats and upping your veg to see if that helps, from what I know about fats, you need to have a good amount of them for your body to function properly, so I would only cut back on those if all else fails. Whatever you end up on that your body feels good with, I would definatly stick to several glasses of water (or tea, or herb tea) per day, as that is always good for you. Some people thrive more on a veg based diet, while others thrive on more of a meat/protein eating plan. Hope that helps. :-)
This person was just innocently asking for advice. Your rude and insolent response was TOTALLY uncalled for. First of all, this eating plan is a LOW starch and no sugar plan, but if you are comfortable with another way of doing things such as a vegan diet, that's great, but it doesn't give you the right to take pot shots and hurl insults at others who are either struggling or happy in another choice. Do as you like with your own body, but grow up and let others live as they choose!
+mrshppy76 The induction phase of Atkins is a ketogenic diet. Dr. Atkins (I'm reading his book right now) advises for constipation to get plenty of water and sprinkle a tablespoon or a little more of Psyllium Husk Powder on your meals.
if trying to kick into keto...you want to lay off carbs for sure and keep them to a minimal. They can be an enemy if trying to reach certain goals...but depends what you're trying to reach.
Hi, I've been watching quite a few of your vidoes and they snapshot the same thing im doing, glad im doing it right, i have been on ketosis for around 9 months now. Thank you for your vidoes lovely insight. HealthfulPursuit
When you say you sip on the drink, do you mean you drink several up until lunch or just that one? Anyone else can comment, as well. I like to drink 2-3 cups of butter coffee, but a little concerned that’s too much.
I am super confused. I get the high fat thing with avocados but butter and animal fat and all that meat? When I eat red meat like that, I am super sluggish etc.
Hey Leanne! I'm very interested in going to CSNN! I'm concerned about being Vegan and whether or not I will take enough from it. I have no intention of switching back to a meat and dairy lifestyle (though I have no issues with others who do). I know I'll learn about the health of meat, which I understand is important if I'll be working with meat eaters. But I guess I just want to know if it's possible to leave a Vegan and ALSO be able to recommend a healthy plant based lifestyle to my future clients. Thanks! :)
Why did you say you ate 200 grams of protein during your first meal with the brisket if we should limit protein to less than 10 grams per meal? How big was that brisket? All your meals looked and sounded appetizing nonetheless.
Hey Leanne, I just wonder, have you ever had your iron blood level and ferritin checked? I know you did lots of blood work in the past, anything about iron? This is one thing I struggle on high fat diet (Im a male) and I can imagine it can be even harder for females as they require more daily iron intake.
hi Leanne! i admire how you can go such a long time without snacking! for me it is a big struggle. i have a terrible habit of wanting snacks all the time. and my brain even tricks me into thinking that i'm hungry. recently i went on vacation and we were having best time and we were always busy, so i ate 3 times a day without snacks (and i was absolutely fine and full). please-please do a video how to break habit of snacking
It doesn't work that way for me. If I only eat fruits and vegetables, then I'll certainly crave something else. Also, when I eat carbs, shortly after all I do is crave more carbs - like a vegan whole wheat wrap filled with nothing but veggies, beans and lots of hot sauce. I doubt that I'm unique in that way also. If I didn't exercise so much, I have probably have been obese when I was doing the ultra low-fat diet. You can stay lean on a low-fat diet, but for me it meant always being hungry and lots of running, cycling and cardio classes.
+Tim Mayer Agreed. I tried fruitarian. raw, high carb and even the McDougall diet and I lasted only a day on the McDougall because it calls for absolutely no fat and no meat. I know we're used to eating meat, but my diet felt very bland and I was constantly craving more food. I never usually crave meat but suddenly I was craving high fat meats and decided that it wasn't for me either. I tried doing only fruits and veggies for a day and I was starving. Soon, I just couldn't stand feeling so cold..I learned later from oriental medicine that too many fruits can make your body very cold and actually not work with everyone's digestion :(
[D a r i a : : A v e r y] [ • ] I'm not pescetarian but I dont eat diary. U should have 2 meals with fish or seafood each day.(to get enough protein) For fats I use coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil, avocados and cocoa butter.
Hello lady...awesome videos.Very delicious looking and sounding meals.I am doing the OMAD meal plan but Want to eat foods more high protein and fat,low carb.I am a woman over 40 and have fat especially in my gut,I want to get rid of it so bad😣Hopefully through a better diet and exercise I can lose it.🍀🍀🍀✌
Hi Leanne, just curious if you're still losing fat and if so, at what rate? Also, on a different topic - could you tell us a little about your tattoo? (If you haven't done so before). Love your amazing videos.
H Walt Hey! I am in maintenance mode ;) So, I eat a bit more fat than I would if I wanted to lose, about 20g more. Hope that helps! Planning to share stories of my tattoos at some point ;)
In MY opinion, that meat was cooked a lot.I know that because it is dark brown wich is not good, that means it contains acrylamide (leads to cancer) and it is a HUGE endocrine disruptor. Your meat should be cooked rare or medium rare max.A better way even should be eating your meat in your meat stock (with some bone), super tender and way healthier.The stock should be eaten 15 to 20 min before eating your meat that you previously removed from the stock.The bouillon from the stock contains a lot of glycine witch balances the high amounts of methionine in meat.Also meat in MY opinion shoud be consumed once a weak about 3 to 6 ounces and that's it. During winter (if you live above 37 degres latitude north in north hemisphere or 37 degres latitude south in southern hemisphere) you can eat meat twice or even 3 times a week and in summer you should not eat meat at all. In spring and automn is kinda in between. Also when your meal should be 2/3 vegetables (not fruit) and 1/3 meat.Meat should have high amounts of fat in it and also cooked vegetables should be cooked with a saturated fat.Dont eat for 5 h after the meal (digestion takes 4h in stomach and you should leave your stomach to rest and build up digestive juices for another 1 h) and dont drink anything 15 min at least before eating,during the meal and 90 min after you finished the meal. A proper meal should last between 20 and 30 min (to feel true satiaty) and propper chewing. Never eat more than 1L of volume at once.You should be really calm during the meal and without external stimulation (specially for the ones that are harder to digest).After the meal you should also walk gently about 3.5-4km/h (this is important so you dont interrupt the digestion process but when you walk gently you stimulate digestion).After that you can take a nap but not more than 30 min.You should not eat 4h before going to sleep.Not eating during 16 h per day works perfectly with a diet relatively high in animal products (18 h is best but not really necessary).High intensive interval training works very good with your type of diet too.There is so many things to say about that subject ! I tried so many things to be healthy; vegan,raw foodist,macrobiotic diet,GAPS diet,paleo etc...and this seems to work perfectly so far (12 years) ! I love your videos btw and dont forget this is only MY opinion ! :)
+Mars Bel Oh I forgot. With this type of diet you should have 2 meals a day and in between you can have 500 ml of organic juice (80% vegetable and 20 % fruit with relatively low sugar content).Also inwinter you should not go over 70 gr of protein a day and in summer 35-40 g is ideal.
Hi, No vegetable oil, please..Organic Coconut oil cold pressed...or Avocado oil..Good grass fed butter such as Kerrygold...Ghee that has no transfats. :)
🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿ROCKN VIDEO!!!! THANKS LEANNE!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 So cool to c what u eat in a day..;) Please tell me how u make dill pickles!!! Every time I make fermented pickles they turn out super mushy… I put them in the cupboard for seven days could that be leaving them too long? How do you make pickles Leanne? 🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿
Your personal opinion-- I know there is not much nutrients to then but I enjoy iceberg every now and then in a salad, I find it refreshing. I think that lettuce is really not bad for you, though, in any case.
Glen M I have to agree with that. I grew up in Germany and we never ate iceberg lettuce. And it’s still not a real thing, in Europe or Asia, now. I only became familiar with it, here in North America... where it’s a cheap add-in to many salad dishes, at home, in recipes and in restaurant meals. If I have a choice... I avoid it. I prefer “butter” lettuce or darker leafy greens, like kale, (raw) spinach, arugula, etc.
Because this is why. nutritionfacts.org/2015/05/19/low-carb-diets-and-coronary-blood-flow/ Anything in green, is a link. I encourage you to research any kind of a "lifestyle" before putting your life in jeopardy.
Paige McAllister Dr. Greger is highly biased (more interested in selling his Vegan lifestyle, then providing good nutritional advice) and well known to cherry pick his data.
this is what people probably picture when they imagine low-carb foods. I think people don't realize that they can eat things like pizza, lasagna, burritos, burgers and chinese dishes with cauliflower rice without carbohydrates if you learn how to replace the carb ingredients.

Carrots aren't keto!! Being a root vegetable they contain quite a lot of carbs.
She had one single carrot-- which has 6.5 net carbs. Really not that bad, especially as it seems she's trying to stay under 30-40g and not strict keto 20 g of net carbs a day.
wow one carrot really? stop.

(If I add something like that, I get pretty anal and only add a little... and I actually measure by weight, to be more accurate.)

wouldnt calories break a fast? aka mct oil?
I'm not sure. Fat doesn't affect insulin like protein and carbs. This doesn't mean prorein and carbs are bad and fat is a free for all. Fat still has a lot of calories. Intermittent fasting is used as a tool anyways so you can eat more later.
According to experts as long as you don't spike insulin you are still in a fasted state.
IMO YES
Have you read the China Study? I'm kinda confused right now...
Quick question, what do you need a B12 shot for? Shouldn't you easily get enough from this diet?
Just because you eat it in your diet does not mean you absorb the correct form, it has to do with methylation.. many people have genetic mutations that inhibit the conversion of folate and B12 both.. This is known as an MTHFR mutation. I personally have a MTHFR mutation. I hope that helps! It is actually difficult to get too much B12.
Emma Grace THat helps, indeed!. Thanks for the info :)

Leanne, I love your videos and work and I can't wait for your weekly Podcasts because it's helped me so much. I've followed low fat, low carb for 12 years and went lchf about 7/8 months ago. I started implementing IM after listening to your Podcast with Jason Fung and a simple 16:8 made such an impact to my body composition. It's not easy breaking the "brain-wash" we've been fed that you'll get fat if you eat fat, but once I started eating fat it was truly liberating for me. You're doing an amazing job - keep it up!
If you're eating red meat, why do you need B12 shots?
MrTrashcan1 Because I was vegan for a really long time and it's taken me quite awhile to increase naturally
HealthfulPursuit Why did you quit the vegan diet?
+Andy Ellis you got a point there.
+Andy Ellis nutritional ketosis is not the same as ketoacidosis, in case you were confused with the two :)
+HealthfulPursuit do you mean plant based? because a real vegan could never go back to harming animals

The minute you drink your latte you break your fasting
I assure you she knows that. She said intermittent fasting, which is basically not snacking between meals. Short periods of not eating.
This rocket fuel latte is made with a huge amount of fat, which is not a problem on Keto but not when fasting. Intermittent fasting is fasting = no calories although a little cream is okay. Refer Jason Fung and anyone who knows about intermittent fasting. She shouldn't be giving wrong advice to people.
Anne D , I 100% concur... But the way she stresses listen to your body & do what's best for you... Dr. Fung is AWESOME!
What name brand "heavy cream" would you recommend been looking not sure what brand new to all this! thank you!
We love Seven Stars heavy cream or Trickling Springs heavy cream. These may only be on the East Coast.
Have you tried using metylcobalamin instead of cyanocobalamin for your b-12? I use this form in a sublingual tablet, I like the brand Superior Source, and the ones I get also have folate and b-6. It got my numbers back up without shots.
Isn't there a way to do low carb vegan?
tattooed vegan yh you can check out "vegetable police" on youtube
IMO moderate low carb yeah, Keto no
What's your view on kombucha, water kefir and fermented veggies?
+Soteria Charis Until they dont contain too much carbs its ok. Like everything else.
Do you have vegetarian Keto recommendations?

Hi, love your videos! Question: How is it still considered fasting if you're consuming calories in your rocket fuel latte?

I go back in 3 months to get blood done again. So, do I double down or accept that high fat diet is not for me? Shit. Lost weight though....
First off you are adorable, I love your personality!
I was thinking about your vegan keto plan and have a question.
Is it possible to be in sustainable ketosis with most days with fats, more of the low carb vegetables, protein from juiced greens & hemp seeds? Maybe throw in eggs and fish 1-2 times a week?
Is it still likely to keto adapt?
holy living It's so hard to say whether you would become adapted as EVERYONE is so different! Sounds like you have a solid plan and it looks great. If you can do nuts, they're great too! I'd say: give it a whirl and see what your body does!
Your right! I can keep the higher fat way of vegan going and see what happens. In the past when I've increased fat but was eating all kinds of veggies I'd gain fat so obviously I didn't turn to fat burning mode even on a No starch vegan diet. Maybe bc it was higher calories than I needed and regardless where that comes from we store the excess.
holy living The High fat type diet is generally just an excuse to eat lots of meat and dairy. You could eat 5 lbs of Kale and a pound of Flax seed and it would work I guess. But Strawberries,Sweet-potatoes, Bananas,Beans and Apples are so good for you...So why bother?
LCHF does not mean high in meat!! Even the vegan nazis can go on it and consume loads of coconut or olive oil or avocado...
What is the difference between a B12 shot and taking a supplement? Thank you for this video!
Ok! So I've been on a LCHF Keto Diet for a few days now, but the highest number of calories I have been having is 900 - 1,200 cal. a day! How do I up my calories without adding more carbs OR knocking out of ketosis?
Zachary Gutierrez Wow... you could add more fats!
Sounds great! Thank you! Really enjoy your channel!!!
+HealthfulPursuit So its been a few months and I was off keto for a while but I've been back on Keto for a week and a day (although I will consider Wednesday a week just because I ate meat again last Wednesday), but now I have added more fats (like the goodness that is MCT oil) and I am meeting my calories!! :D Woo! Also, have lost 7 pounds this week! Don't know if it is water, even though it probs is, but I feel great! (minus the burning quadriceps.)
Is there a sub for the coconut in the latte? I am allergic to coconut.
Where do u get the collagen! ? What type of tea is that!?
Janine Ewing From vitalproteins.com ;) It's mint
She gets her collagen from killing animals.
For your first meal isn’t that more than a palm size of protein? Doesn’t that much protein release glucose? Just learning 😍
Can you do video on Bone broth home made or the best one to buy.? That's the only thing missing from my diet. I should be able to make it with a vitamix blender? Do you make your own or buy? Thanks :)
2011ariesrules ,Jordan Rubin sells bone broth.
i think im in love.... after the whole cast iron dish... just saying. keep up the good work!! been doing variations of lc,lchf, paleo for about 5 years. starting weight 365lbs currently 198lbs.
What is collagen and what does it do for the body? Thanks:)
+lilly2874 Would like to know the same - don't really know it, just from labels on facial creams. ;)
I just found your channel and love it! But I have sugar cravings that are crazy, what can I eat for that?
You should consider going vegan! My sugar cravings are very low because I am getting a sufficient amount of carbs. :) Check out Forks Over Knives, it is an awesome documentary!
+Carla Peterson (PinkLola) It took me three month to keto adapt. We are all addicted to sugar unfortunately...
how do you feel about chia seeds? helpful or not?
How do you cook foods without oil? In your other video you said to only add oils after cooking, does that mean you use animal fats to cook so the food doesn't stick to the pan?
You can saute in water, broth, stock, friut juice, and coconut water.
Don't understand how you made the tea. Can you make a video?
My concern is my body ph. im drinking liquid chlorophyll throughout the day. plus taking enzyme pills to help with the protein.
where is the collagen tea recipe posted? Can't wait to start drinking it cuz your skin is amazing!
I've been struggling with low carb, not much success due to thyroid issues. I have just watched your video and I have a question. After doing my research, I thought I am only allowed 1 to 1 1/2 cups of veggies a day?? And no root veggies? I imagine you are consuming more veggies because you are maintaining your weight, not persuing weight loss anymore? It's confusing, only because everyone has differing opinions.
exactly150 Hey! My clients who have thyroid imbalances do better with a touch more carbs. After I calculated this day, it worked out to be about 50g net of carbs. This still allows me to be in fat-burning mode without getting too crazy about vegetables. I always say - you shouldn't have to count your kale.
I did. I went on M Dougall's diet. Holy crap, I gained 10lbs in less than 2 weeks. In order for me to lose anything, albeit very very slow, is to consume not more than 10 g carbs/day. I have severe metabolic damage.
Healthful Pursuit advocates a diet high in good quality fats as well. My son is an oncologist and he now puts all his patients on a ketogenic diet. If done properly, actually increases HDL and lowers LDL. Also studies are being done that high fat diet stops metastatic disease. Fat is no longer demonized.
Type O positive
Im 15 days in keto, ive losing only 2 lbs!! (Im overweight btw) I feel bloated,constipated,even I feel more 'clear' and with more energy Im about to give up,I use to go to the bathroom (#2) up3 times a day,now Im lucky if am going once every two days Im suffering of water retention as well :(
Any advice??
Don't eat keto. Instead, it would be much healthier if you ate high in carbs like rice, fruits and potatoes.
Im vegan but i like to look around and see what other people are doing and it seems like you need more fiber in your diet. Im not gonna say go vegan but it would really help, but do whatever the fuuuucck you wanna do lol
+mrshppy76 Here's my advice, for what it is worth. First make sure you are getting all the food that you should on the Keto plan, also, importantly, drink the amount of water recommended. If you still feel very out of sorts and have the problems with constipation, then try cutting back on meats and upping your veg to see if that helps, from what I know about fats, you need to have a good amount of them for your body to function properly, so I would only cut back on those if all else fails. Whatever you end up on that your body feels good with, I would definatly stick to several glasses of water (or tea, or herb tea) per day, as that is always good for you. Some people thrive more on a veg based diet, while others thrive on more of a meat/protein eating plan. Hope that helps. :-)
This person was just innocently asking for advice. Your rude and insolent response was TOTALLY uncalled for. First of all, this eating plan is a LOW starch and no sugar plan, but if you are comfortable with another way of doing things such as a vegan diet, that's great, but it doesn't give you the right to take pot shots and hurl insults at others who are either struggling or happy in another choice. Do as you like with your own body, but grow up and let others live as they choose!
+mrshppy76 The induction phase of Atkins is a ketogenic diet. Dr. Atkins (I'm reading his book right now) advises for constipation to get plenty of water and sprinkle a tablespoon or a little more of Psyllium Husk Powder on your meals.
so can I eat avacados and 7 layered bean dip on this high fat low carb diet and it work?
minimal beans or cut them out as they're high in carbs.
Carbs aren't the enemy
if trying to kick into keto...you want to lay off carbs for sure and keep them to a minimal. They can be an enemy if trying to reach certain goals...but depends what you're trying to reach.
Yes they are. They make you hungry. I eat fat and i never get hungry. I ate 2 eggs and didn't eat for 12 hours.
Hi, I've been watching quite a few of your vidoes and they snapshot the same thing im doing, glad im doing it right, i have been on ketosis for around 9 months now. Thank you for your vidoes lovely insight. HealthfulPursuit
Kirpal Singh whoop! Love that you love it!
Your latte recipe links to Vital Proteins for the collagen, but the photo shows the Great Lakes brand. Which one do you actually use?
When you say you sip on the drink, do you mean you drink several up until lunch or just that one? Anyone else can comment, as well. I like to drink 2-3 cups of butter coffee, but a little concerned that’s too much.
I just sip on the one!
you are answering all of my questions one by one your channel is amazing !!! thanks !!!!
I am super confused. I get the high fat thing with avocados but butter and animal fat and all that meat? When I eat red meat like that, I am super sluggish etc.
How do you feel about ketopia drink?does it really work ?
I really enjoy your videos. They're really helpful. Thanks so much.
Any tips for someone who keeps strict kosher AND pescatarian? TIA!!!
Hey Leanne! I'm very interested in going to CSNN! I'm concerned about being Vegan and whether or not I will take enough from it. I have no intention of switching back to a meat and dairy lifestyle (though I have no issues with others who do). I know I'll learn about the health of meat, which I understand is important if I'll be working with meat eaters. But I guess I just want to know if it's possible to leave a Vegan and ALSO be able to recommend a healthy plant based lifestyle to my future clients. Thanks! :)
This was so helpful for more meal ideas and what a day of intermittent fasting looks like. More videos like this! thank you!
I ordered bone broth powder??.What do you think about the powder ?
Does the rocket fuel latte with oil break your fast? Since it has calories?
Why did you say you ate 200 grams of protein during your first meal with the brisket if we should limit protein to less than 10 grams per meal? How big was that brisket? All your meals looked and sounded appetizing nonetheless.
V aishaly 200 grams of brisket, not protein ;)
You are a breathe of fresh air. Great video!
Jennifer Marian , yes she is... I love her energy and she's doing something positive... The foolish critics on this thread, just crack me up...
i will try and implement this one day soon.....next week....
So, just out of curiosity, do you strive for a particular number of calories daily?
Google Keto Calculator. There is few websites that work all out based on your specifics
Hey Leanne, I just wonder, have you ever had your iron blood level and ferritin checked? I know you did lots of blood work in the past, anything about iron? This is one thing I struggle on high fat diet (Im a male) and I can imagine it can be even harder for females as they require more daily iron intake.
I AM so interested in your style of Keto...but that salad looks like a huge amount of carbs? I'm confused!!
are you looking at your omega6/omega3 ratio? Although...since you are cooking for yourself, they're likely just fine.
hi Leanne! i admire how you can go such a long time without snacking! for me it is a big struggle. i have a terrible habit of wanting snacks all the time. and my brain even tricks me into thinking that i'm hungry. recently i went on vacation and we were having best time and we were always busy, so i ate 3 times a day without snacks (and i was absolutely fine and full). please-please do a video how to break habit of snacking
***** So more carbs will remove the desire to snack?
Wow, Leanne, you are moving up in the world! You got a permanent troll: Caroline Keller really loves to hate our healthy lifestyle :-)
It doesn't work that way for me. If I only eat fruits and vegetables, then I'll certainly crave something else. Also, when I eat carbs, shortly after all I do is crave more carbs - like a vegan whole wheat wrap filled with nothing but veggies, beans and lots of hot sauce. I doubt that I'm unique in that way also. If I didn't exercise so much, I have probably have been obese when I was doing the ultra low-fat diet. You can stay lean on a low-fat diet, but for me it meant always being hungry and lots of running, cycling and cardio classes.
+Tim Mayer Agreed. I tried fruitarian. raw, high carb and even the McDougall diet and I lasted only a day on the McDougall because it calls for absolutely no fat and no meat. I know we're used to eating meat, but my diet felt very bland and I was constantly craving more food. I never usually crave meat but suddenly I was craving high fat meats and decided that it wasn't for me either. I tried doing only fruits and veggies for a day and I was starving. Soon, I just couldn't stand feeling so cold..I learned later from oriental medicine that too many fruits can make your body very cold and actually not work with everyone's digestion :(
+ivanidzzza2 Keep your carbs VERY low, carbs are what makes us hungry!!
Great videos! Where do you purchase duck fat?
ACV! I have just fallen in love with you. Thanks for all your help. I'm new to this keto thing and you're my go too automatically. xx
carrots on keto?
does liver contain carbs?
i thought in keto diet root crops are not allowed as it is full of carbos?
Hi there! I have both diabetes and Parkinson's so could this help me?
so the coffee doesn't break the fast? i feel like your body is receiving some sort of nutrients from it. just curious
Does eating all the veggies kick you out of ketosis?
When you say you cook your meals in ‘tons of fat’ how much fat is it?
Thanks for the info and the inspiration
Not sure if anyone can help me
I want to do Keto but I’m pescatarian and I am not going to do dairy.. prob need to find a good book
[D a r i a : : A v e r y] [ • ] I'm not pescetarian but I dont eat diary. U should have 2 meals with fish or seafood each day.(to get enough protein) For fats I use coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil, avocados and cocoa butter.
How is it possible to have carrots, a starch, on keto ?
+HealhfulPursuit Do you do all of your videos from you parent's spare room? When do you go to work during all of your time spent?
You're awesome & thank you for your videos 😊
may I ask why you take b12 shots ? thanks
OK to eat carrots and bell peppers on keto?
Whaaaattt a wonderful video... thank you!
Did your menstrual come back since eating this way? thanks
where can I get the collagen ??
why you do not do IF every day? could you explain? thanks
What oil to use gmfor saute the meat
Hello lady...awesome videos.Very delicious looking and sounding meals.I am doing the OMAD meal plan but Want to eat foods more high protein and fat,low carb.I am a woman over 40 and have fat especially in my gut,I want to get rid of it so bad😣Hopefully through a better diet and exercise I can lose it.🍀🍀🍀✌
Hi Leanne, just curious if you're still losing fat and if so, at what rate? Also, on a different topic - could you tell us a little about your tattoo? (If you haven't done so before). Love your amazing videos.
H Walt Hey! I am in maintenance mode ;) So, I eat a bit more fat than I would if I wanted to lose, about 20g more. Hope that helps! Planning to share stories of my tattoos at some point ;)
Thanks so much for sharing your day with us!!!! You are the BEST!!!!!!
In MY opinion, that meat was cooked a lot.I know that because it is dark brown wich is not good, that means it contains acrylamide (leads to cancer) and it is a HUGE endocrine disruptor. Your meat should be cooked rare or medium rare max.A better way even should be eating your meat in your meat stock (with some bone), super tender and way healthier.The stock should be eaten 15 to 20 min before eating your meat that you previously removed from the stock.The bouillon from the stock contains a lot of glycine witch balances the high amounts of methionine in meat.Also meat in MY opinion shoud be consumed once a weak about 3 to 6 ounces and that's it. During winter (if you live above 37 degres latitude north in north hemisphere or 37 degres latitude south in southern hemisphere) you can eat meat twice or even 3 times a week and in summer you should not eat meat at all. In spring and automn is kinda in between. Also when your meal should be 2/3 vegetables (not fruit) and 1/3 meat.Meat should have high amounts of fat in it and also cooked vegetables should be cooked with a saturated fat.Dont eat for 5 h after the meal (digestion takes 4h in stomach and you should leave your stomach to rest and build up digestive juices for another 1 h) and dont drink anything 15 min at least before eating,during the meal and 90 min after you finished the meal. A proper meal should last between 20 and 30 min (to feel true satiaty) and propper chewing. Never eat more than 1L of volume at once.You should be really calm during the meal and without external stimulation (specially for the ones that are harder to digest).After the meal you should also walk gently about 3.5-4km/h (this is important so you dont interrupt the digestion process but when you walk gently you stimulate digestion).After that you can take a nap but not more than 30 min.You should not eat 4h before going to sleep.Not eating during 16 h per day works perfectly with a diet relatively high in animal products (18 h is best but not really necessary).High intensive interval training works very good with your type of diet too.There is so many things to say about that subject ! I tried so many things to be healthy; vegan,raw foodist,macrobiotic diet,GAPS diet,paleo etc...and this seems to work perfectly so far (12 years) ! I love your videos btw and dont forget this is only MY opinion ! :)
+Mars Bel Oh I forgot. With this type of diet you should have 2 meals a day and in between you can have 500 ml of organic juice (80% vegetable and 20 % fruit with relatively low sugar content).Also inwinter you should not go over 70 gr of protein a day and in summer 35-40 g is ideal.
I stopped by to drop you some love :-D Space hugs!
Thank you very much! YOU rock! Xoxo ❤️❤️
i am a vegetarian, how can i make a high fat diet?
+Denise Maria Branquinho i know avocados are extremely high in fat! Also adding vegetable oils and butter will add high fat.
eggs, avocados, coconut oil etc. (their are also plant based meats, i use one that has 4 net carbs per serving)
Hi, No vegetable oil, please..Organic Coconut oil cold pressed...or Avocado oil..Good grass fed butter such as Kerrygold...Ghee that has no transfats. :)
🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿☕️🌿ROCKN VIDEO!!!! THANKS LEANNE!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
So cool to c what u eat in a day..;)
Please tell me how u make dill pickles!!! Every time I make fermented pickles they turn out super mushy… I put them in the cupboard for seven days could that be leaving them too long?
How do you make pickles Leanne?
🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿Ⓜ️🌿
Maria Roqueta Here's a tutorial on pickle making... www.healthfulpursuit.com/2011/09/leannes-canning-adventures-pickles/
Thanks for your kind words!
That's too many carbs for me for weight loss. Maybe for maintenance later on, kinda like Paleo.
Ice berg lettuce is junk lettuce, you should do mixed greens: spinach, kale , arugula......
Katharine Dodson junk lettuce? Are people going real crazy now?
No, there is no real nutrition in head lettuce and it constipates people. The deeper green tor darker the lettuce the better it is for you
Your personal opinion-- I know there is not much nutrients to then but I enjoy iceberg every now and then in a salad, I find it refreshing. I think that lettuce is really not bad for you, though, in any case.
Nope. Fact. Here's the low down on lettuce:
health.howstuffworks.com/wellness/food-nutrition/facts/healthiest-types-of-lettuce1.htm
Glen M I have to agree with that. I grew up in Germany and we never ate iceberg lettuce. And it’s still not a real thing, in Europe or Asia, now. I only became familiar with it, here in North America... where it’s a cheap add-in to many salad dishes, at home, in recipes and in restaurant meals. If I have a choice... I avoid it. I prefer “butter” lettuce or darker leafy greens, like kale, (raw) spinach, arugula, etc.
Just listened again--sorry---you did mentioned how you cooked it.... Thanks
Can I eat this way while breastfeeding?
Worst idea ever. NutritionFacts.org
ok...but why? I eat fairly low carb now and I have no problem with supply.
Because this is why. nutritionfacts.org/2015/05/19/low-carb-diets-and-coronary-blood-flow/
Anything in green, is a link. I encourage you to research any kind of a "lifestyle" before putting your life in jeopardy.
Paige McAllister Dr. Greger is highly biased (more interested in selling his Vegan lifestyle, then providing good nutritional advice) and well known to cherry pick his data.
I do hclf 2 weeks then eat 600 carbs through out 2 days
this is what people probably picture when they imagine low-carb foods. I think people don't realize that they can eat things like pizza, lasagna, burritos, burgers and chinese dishes with cauliflower rice without carbohydrates if you learn how to replace the carb ingredients.
exactly. the body lets us know when we are truly hungry. high 'good fats' are best but sure go ahead with other fats occasionally.
