Thanks for watching! Having issues losing weight? Ask any questions and I'll do my best to help. 😊⬇️
Hi Ivana I’m 4 “11 weigh 160 it’s been a little over a month I been working out 5 days a week 2 of those days are spin class the rest are cardio and lifting. I track my cal on mfp try to stay at 1500 I haven’t lost any weight I can’t see any difference I also quit coffee thinking that was the problem and nothing. I’ve done keto before lost 30 pounds then got pregnant now I can’t loose any weight no matter what I do. My daughter is about to be 2. I feel like I workout a lot and im starting to feel really bummed out
That sucks, and what’s worse is no response. So I’ll respond to you. I feel like it’s super hard to track correctly on meat based diets . I suggest weighing your meat before cooking it. Eat more salads and just thinking that you must be having 2200 calories and perhaps you are not calculating it right as you do say there is no difference. If it’s a health related cause to weight gain and after checking you are not accidentally being inaccurate you should see a doctor as plenty of things can mess with your weight-highly stressed life is a weight gain cause. Might I suggest cleansing using herbs to clean out gut. Then once you detox it is usually easier to lose fat in my experience
I've been trying to lose weight for a few years now. I'm 5'6" and I used to be 187, which is overweight according to my BMI. I've done keto, low carb, and two years later, I got down to 155. Then I fell off that keto band wagon and only gained about 5 lbs. Now recently I've come across a diet that not only I can be consistent with, but I can also incorporate into my newfound lifestyle and that is, fasting. I've been pretty flexible with what I eat without sacrificing the foods I love. So far I'm down to 141 lbs. I've done a 48 hour fast last month, which got me to 141 lbs. And now in August just this week, I eased myself out of a 72 hour water fast and I have yet to check my weight on the scale which I plan to do on Saturday. I rarely pig out on foods and manage to stay in a caloric deficit. My goal weight is 125 lbs. So far it's been working pretty well for me.
You’ve used a lot of different strategies. Hopefully the strategy you’re using now is sustainable for you in the long term. I personally don’t recommend water fasting…it’s unnecessary and potentially dangerous if unsupervised.
@@IvanaChapman I only intend on doing 48-72 hour fasts at least once every two months until I reach my weight goal. By that time, my only challenge would be to sustain it.
By the way, I usually keep my fasting windows around 16 to 20 hours when I'm not doing a prolonged fasting.
I mean, if it’s working for you, that’s fine. 😊 It’s just not a strategy I personally use or recommend.
@@IvanaChapman I understand. Fasting isn't for everybody. Like you mentioned, it's really gonna depend on the person and what works best for them. And during my eating windows, I do manage to take in at least 1600 calories. I don't even overeat anymore. I do, however, indulge in some junk food once in a while. I'm a bit of a stickler against doing a calorie surplus unless I happen to be severely underweight, but I don't see that happening. I couldn't give up food completely if I tried.
I've been doing 30min of cardio 5 days a week for 10 weeks now, I've cut out sodas, bad sweets, and I try and keep my diary calorie intake at or under 1900. I don't know what I'm doing wrong and I'm getting discouraged
Don’t be discouraged , Do some strength training as well it will definitely help you .
I’m 77 and I walk every day at least a mile not to mention other errand you do where you’re walking and climbing stairs, which is hard for me at my age. I am 5 foot two and I weigh 182 and I never had problems with my weight till I turned 76 and then , woe, I gained 17 pounds in a year and had to change one size of pants and T-shirt and it’s depressing even though I’m positive all the time I’m very spiritual. I had chronic insomnia for about a year to two years. I’ll go to bed at 12:30 or one and I don’t fall asleep till 6:30 or 7:30 and I’ll sleep and wake up again around three hours later at the most, that part is exhausting no matter how I accepted. I don’t accept it deep down and I don’t know what to do. I’ve seems like I’ve tried everything , as I eat less than 1500 cal and all wholesome healthy food ideas for this? Plus I say to myself every day I am losing weight. I am going to be thinner. I am going to be able to sleep better, I won’t let those negative thoughts consume me… But I have to say it’s not working and there might be one day out the week where it really depresses me
Take them calories down to 11-1200.
@@suzysanders6267 I think it is due to your sleep cycle please try to get 8h sleep . Its good fr your health too.
If you can't fix it go and get help from a doctor and take medicine to getback to proper sleep cycle. It not a shame lots of people do that. So 1st make a proper sleep cycle .
I’ve been going to the gym daily for an hour alternate days of cardio and weight training. A month straight. 1500-2000 calories daily and my weight isn’t going anywhere in fact some days I end up a pound or two heavier. Hoovering 157-160 which is overweight for me. It’s quite frustrating though I am noticing muscle gain.
It’s only one month in, so there’s probably no need to change anything drastic. It’s great that you’re already noticing muscle gain (I assume you’re a beginner). Most people underestimate their calories quite a bit, but it seems like you’ll need to go a bit lower to get fat loss.
Same here!
I'm 20, 5.3, I started with around 74kgs, the goal is 55kgs. I started a month ago and I'm down just 2 kgs, I'm 72 kgs now. I'm doing intermittent fasting i sometimes do 18/6, sometimes 16/8 but its not working, I'm not losing weight as fast as I'd like, I'm in a caloric deficit as well, taking less than 1200 calories, walking 10k steps a day, i workout 5 days a week with some cardio and some weight training, it doesn't seem to be working. What should I do? I feel like im retaining water
I am going through the same tbh.
Hi! I'm going through the exact same thing. I did run into a word called metabolic adaptation. According to some of my initial research, if our body is perpetually receiving less calories than it needs, it goes into "survival mode" so any calories we feed into it will turn it into fat right away. Try to increase your calorie intake to 1300-1500 depending on your activity levels. Less than 1200 may be way too low that it's causing your body to go into survival mode because you are "starving." (I was doing the same thing, less than 1200 calories yet not much wt loss). For 2 weeks, try to up your caloric intake to between 1300-1500 (based on your age, wt and height, your caloric needs is actually 2200 to maintain wt so 1300-1500 is your calorie requirement to lose weight). Make sure your food is nutritious, and clean food, and high protein. You can also try calorie cycling, which is a whole other thing. I will do the same. Good luck to you and me and to those that have the same problem!
Omgggg the same is happening with me
@@snowy.12th How long have you been trying this?
How long have you been trying this?
Lots of things can be going on here, but we have to know how long you have been at it for?
I have not lost anything in five week’s counting calories (about 1800 a day) and measuring my food. I weight train and use the stair master four times a week. I am so disappointed that the scale is not budging!! I am however able to zip up my coat now. So maybe I am gaining muscle.
Possibly. But it might be time to adjust your calorie count to see further changes.
@@IvanaChapman i had a couple of people tell me I look slimmer but it’s not reflecting on the scale. I am a 204 pound female 42 years old. Think it can be hormonal???
Hormones are the last place to look. You already said you’ve made progress, so keep going.
@@IvanaChapman thank you! I was literally just tell my friend about a potential hormone imbalance and then I open RUclips and here is your comment. ☺️
Cals too high! Go to 1200. It will work.
Very informative video. Subscribed. I just realized that I am guilty of thinking a lot of exercise (and my job is physically demanding) is going to be sufficient. I'll be 46 in November, and the ability to eat whatever, whenever and stay thin is much harder to do than it was, when I was in my 20s.
Finally, someone who knows what they are talking about and who is logical.
Thanks 😊
I work out 5 days a week
Either at the gym or running
I’m 6’1 at 270 pounds
Been eating lean and healthy,
Meats, Vegetables and Fruit
Yet I’m stuck, I can’t loose even a pound
What can I do ?
2 thoughts: First, if your waist is trimmer but you're not losing weight, then perhaps you have lost some fat and added some muscle. In other words, losing weight isn't the be-all-end-all. Second, as the video suggests, it's entirely possible to be eating healthy but still overconsuming calories. In this case, reduce your portions. My own method is to actually strictly measure (either using measuring cups or a scale) the portions and eat the same exact thing each meal. Or, at least have a very small number of alternatives that you know the proper portions to eat. Then weight yourself weekly for feedback. If you're not making progress, reduce the portions slightly. Something sustainable long term is going to be just below your maintenance calories, which means there is no room for a big blowout once in a while. Doing that can erase an entire week's progress.
@@madhusudan but how can he gain muscles when he is in a calorie deficit?
@@Tha-King-Arthur It's possible when you're overweight and/or new to lifting.
I eat aple sometimes fried egg or boild egg also I do sometimes fasting with exercise for 40 minutes to 1hr almost everyday for more than 8 months its very good for me to lose weight from 110 kilos to 80kilos now still grinding ❤
Very informative - as always! I agree that, with the myriad of diets and exercise plans, the missing key element is consistency. If whichever plan chosen does not become a way of life the results (if any) will only be temporary. Thank you for cutting through the hype and telling it like it truly is, Ivana!
Thanks so much! 😊 I'm glad that you appreciate my approach. ❤
Wow, such a great video. Absolutely no nonsense truth!
So glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Thank you. I was 330lbs and was dropping 3lbs a week until I hit 310lbs and I have been struggling at this weight for a week or so
I need help please! I’ve been walking and jogging for an hour twice a day. Been doing that for a month and everyone told me that I look bulkier, especially my legs and arms area. I look bigger than I used to and even increased in weight.
As a woman it filled me with insecurities! Especially when they point out my bulky calves. I didn’t do keto or IF but I did cut down my eating portions and sugar intake. What did I do wrong?
Hi there. Lower the cardio a bit, and do weight training. It's not about the calorie burn, it's about all the other changes it will make in your body. Give it a try!
Great video. Really appreciate your content and how you deliver information. You're the best and underrated!
Thank you. 😊
I always gain weight when I exercise. Stopped lost 35 pounds, but i was losing muscle. Gained the weight back. Cant win. Cant survive on 1200 to 1500 calories and im always hungry no matter what i eat
I wish I had found you years ago !! I spent 10 years thinking it mattered what I ate and not how much !!
It took me a LONG time too! 🙂
BS. I increased my calories but lowered my ratio of carbs and lost weight. Stop pushing calorie deficit.
I’m 26. My height is 5’4, my starting weight was 227 lbs, I’m now between 220-223 and I’ve been doing at least an hour of boxing 5 days a week. I recently incorporated kickboxing and jujitsu as well. I’ve been tracking my calories to be around 1800 calories and at least 100 grams of protein. I know I gained muscle but I’m wondering why I’m not losing more after being consistent with exercise and clean eating almost 5 months now
intermittent fasting + lower your calories to 1700 for 5 days and take 2 days of your maintenance calories
I would say fat loss is about 98% diet, I have increased my steps from about 6k to 12 per day and have not noticed really any difference in the amount of weight I am losing, and I stick to a strict calorie defecit of between 1200 to 1500 per day.
I have started my weight loss journey from may 2022 ...and till july 2023 i was able to lose 16kgs with exercise and diet but since August 2023 i have stopped losing weight even after doing everything from exercising regularly to eating healthy food...its been 6-7 months now still there is no change in my weight..and its very depressing and demotivating for someone like me who is giving her 100%.... wherever I pass by the mirror it makes me so sad ...pls tell me what is happenings with me(also i have decreased my calories intake to 1700..still no results)
I started doing 30 minutes aday on the elliptical and trimmed 1000 Cals aday and lost nothing last week.
Im 15 and i just eat what my mom makes for dinner 😊
Ive been trying to cut down on my constant snacking tho... 😅
500-800+ calorie deficit daily here and on a keto diet and npt losing any weight. And I strictly measure and weigh my food. There is far more to weight loss than many make it seem.
If you’re not losing weight, you’re not in a calorie deficit.
@@IvanaChapman there is plenty of research out there to debunk this fallacy. Liver and gut issues, hormones, sleep deprivation, abnormally slow metabolism, etc. can all influence such an issue. You're wrong.
@@IvanaChapman plenty of credible scientists that have spoken on this very issue.
My weight seems to stay the same no matter what. I can eat fast food and candy and get almost no exercise and my body is like 190 lbs is cool, we'll stay here 🥰 If I eat right, exercise, cut out most added sugar, not eat after 9pm, count calories, etc and my body is like 190 lbs is cool, we'll stay here 🥰
Every. Single. Day. I have to remind myself that I'm doing this for my health, not to lose weight. Because it is HARD putting in all this work and not seeing any physical changes. I'm trying to get my a1c down a bit (it's just under the pre diabetic cut off) and get my cholesterol ratio better balanced (hdl is a bit low). If either of those get worse at my next check up, I'm not sure I'll be able to keep this up. 🥴
Thank you for this video coach. Since I work a desk job, I've gained alot of weight and overeat at night or if I eat right my cheat days are terrible with so much calories.
Glad you liked the video. 😊 Why have you decided to do "cheat" days?
I lost 19 kg in four months by daily 800 kcal walking (2,5 hour 13.000 steps), and around the day fitness (30 min light weights 1,2,3 kg) 600 kcal and cycling (15 minutes 5 km) 500 kcal, eating 1700-1800 kcal each day but for some reason my weight got stuck the last four days, i even gain weight while in train harder and eat less..
I have been trying to lose weight for 2 years! I have not lost a kg! which makes me wonder. It appears that I can gain weight in short time and struggle to lose it! It was easier for me to lose weight before but not any more. Do you have an idea about the possible reasons? thanks
Are you tracking your foods? I was having a hard time too and once I started tracking I realized I really was over eating more than I realized! Certain foods just add up really fast! Like oils.
is there a safe, reliable way to figure out how many calories you need per day so that you can calculate how many calories you should take it in order to hit the 3500 weekly deficit?
Can the body adapt to your calories? I've been losing weight and gaining it back and then some for the past 40+ years. I'm down 110 pounds from my max but I haven't been able to lose any weight in the past 7 months. I'm counting calories and I'm more than often than not in a 500 calorie deficit.
If you're not losing weight, you're NOT in a calorie deficit. The estimate that you're using isn't correct for you. How many calories are you eating daily? How long have you been eating that much?
I have a video coming up where I talk about weight loss plateaus and I'll be discussing "why you're not losing weight" in my livestream tomorrow: ruclips.net/user/liveTkq83Dg5ntI I'll add your question to my list.
I’m struggling because exercise makes me so hungry I can’t stay in my calorie deficit. So I’m doing less, mostly walking and a little Pilates. Weight is finally going down. Also just slightly reducing carbs and increasing protein.
I’ve not had any fitness coach who has given me the perfect meal plan.
It’s insane that it’s all take and no practice solution to all the theory.
It works well for men, but women are different and no one has cracked it for them yet.
My diet is always healthy. One meal/day. 2 meals/day. No snacking. I used to do a lot of resistant training, but I didn’t lose weight. Recently, I do less resistant training and do more cardio workout. The result is I am losing weight. I agree that I consume very high calories. Cardio workout would help with losing weight. I would rather do cardio workout and consume high calories. I can’t stand eat less.
Hey I m 16 yrs old
My height is 5.2ft and weight is 64kg
And for past more than a month I m eating 1000-1200 calories and exercising but i m not able to see any changes.......
Have u lost any weight since? I’m 17 and struggling :/

Sry to disappoint you but I didn't
I ain't gonna give up though....I m gonna work on my lifestyle and eating habits cuz it's not over until I will
Don't you give I m sure u will achieve your goal soon
Some disagreements. Weight loss is an energy balance around the body. Muscle increases the rate of energy output by the body.
You burn about 10 extra calories for every pound of muscle you put on. Not nearly as much as most people think. I'm still a strong supporter of weight training though, for a host of other reasons.
@@IvanaChapman10 extra calories per day?
I was 79 before embarking on workouts and diet, now i am 82 kgs, why am i putting on weight instead of loosing
My schedule is
1. Mrng i go for running nearly 2 km
2. I take two idly and juice as breakfast
3. Afternoon lunch with rice and curry.
4. Evening a soup and
5. Night i take a juice or hot milk with ghee
.. Is there any mistake in my diet
Whats that plz tell me for gaining weight
I'm 265 LBS, been working out for a month. Eating healthy and cycle an hour a day. I was 260lbs at the begining of may. I've gained weight. I don't understand.
Have you tried tracking your calories?
I have been watching many of your videos. Do you have a video of what you eat in a day?
I've had many requests for what I eat in a day...so I'm working on it. 😉 Glad you're enjoying my videos. 🙂
I used to throw treat foods on top of my long runs as a teenager.
Your age has definitely also something to do with it! Back when i was in my 20s I could eat whatever I wanted. When i got on a diet, you could see me shrink fast but now I’m like training 3-4 times in a week and not eating that much but not perfect, i see it’s a bit more difficult compared to when i was younger!
It may be more difficult, but it's primarily due to lifestyle and energy levels. Our metabolism doesn't really change until we get to our 60s.
I lift weights for 2 hours a week with a trainer and do 5-6 hours a week of cardio (treadmill, bike, elliptical). I have a meal plan of 1600 calories (120g protein). I am very strong but I’m still fat. 5’4 154lbs and can’t lose even half a pound. I quit drinking completely 3 weeks ago and prior to this I starved myself at 1,000 or less calories for probably 10 years. I know I need to regain my metabolism after constantly under eating but I’m hitting my macros perfectly day after day. It’s very discouraging. I’m told over and over again it’s under eating. Is that true with this regimen?
Undereating is rarely the cause of not being able to lose weight. Some adaptations can occur after severe restriction for a long period of time, but it's not as great as most people think. If you believe you've been accurately tracking your calories for many months and aren't seeing results, you may want to see a doctor to see if you have any medical conditions that may be affecting your weight loss. You can also check to see if you have been tracking correctly: ruclips.net/video/CdqBtZEVBAA/видео.html
Same issue.
But what possible medical condition in the world may not allow weight loss with weight training and cardio,?
@@yana99_

hypothyroidism
hyperinsulinemia
low vit .d levels and high cortisol
So, after nearly 14 years of not exercising, I've recently decided to get back into shape. I'm only 2 weeks in but I've actually gained 2lbs through eating healthier and decreasing my calories by 500 or more per day. I've also started jiu jitsu at a gym where I train 3 to 4 days out of the week so I'd like to think I am burning off a lot of calories on those days. I will begin incorporating some strength training starting today. Should I not pay attention to the scale and keep going?
Normally they say to not pay to much attention to the skill bc as u workout you will most likely start to gain muscle which is heavier than fat therefore u may see a rise in your weight hope that helps
I trimmed a 1000 aday in cals and did 30 minutes aday on the elliptical doing intermediate fasting and lost nothing in the last week
Very true! Cant deny the science of calories.
Barbara Rolls book on volumetric eating is pretty cool, talks about the calorie density of foods.
For sure…can’t get away from calories. I stop short of recommending a diet just based on calorie density though. Many calorie dense foods are healthy (and tasty!) and it’s more just about having an awareness of a food’s density.
Only when i started weight training is when i got great fat loss . Cardio 20 years didnt do much for me.
Hi! I'm 5'2 and 141 lbs, I started at 150 roughly a month ago, I'm on a meal plan currently and every day a company delievers my meals which account to roughly 900-1100 kcal a day, i also exercise 5-6 times a week, I do weight training, yoga, swimming and dancing weekly, according to my apple watch i burn around 250-400 active kcal, but it's been 2 weeks and scale woldnt budge, I'm not gaining, but I'm not losing either and it kills me that all of my hard work is not paying off, any advice?
I'm not a pro but if can, don't pay too much attention to the scale. Focus on fat loss and not weight loss. Muscles weigh more than fat, so it might look like you've not lost any plus it's just a month. Keep doing what you do and love it. And you will see the results. Surely.
I started 14 January 2024. My biggest diet and gym. I go gym 4-5 days. I do weight training first and then 1 hour cardio with 60 mins with 12-13 incline and 4 speed and burn 500 calorie. Nothing had changed. It’s almost 2 month. I do eat clean. I eat 2 times a day with good diet. But stilllllllllllllllllllll nothingggggg.
Btw I stared gym July 2023 and I was 88 kg and since December 2023 and I am still 76.
Great video! How many calories do you recommend? I’m 5’6, already lost 21 pounds since January but my stomach is slowly getting on board lol! But it’s a struggle! I was 165 in January and I’m currently 141. I started weight training 2x a week four months ago. I work out 3-4 times a week currently. Thank you in advance!
Congrats on your progress! 👏 I generally estimate maintenance calories at 13x bodyweight. So for your current weight it would be around 1900 calories a day. I’d initially try a 200-300 calorie deficit (1600-1700 calories) to see how it goes. You’ve added activity as well, so normally I’d probably set it at 1700 to start, while also checking daily protein intake. It’s all an estimate, so I tend to check in every 2-3 weeks and see how results are going and then make adjustments.
What calorie intake are you targeting now? And do you know how much protein you’re having?
@@IvanaChapman Thank you so much! Currently I’m at 1,400 and not sure about my protein intake but I make sure I get a good amount. Not sure if it helps but I’m 41 years old. I’ll be 42 in September. I feel like my belly fat is stubborn 😂. I know we can’t target an area but I’d like to get rid of the belly fat. I saw your video on body weight for belly fat and that knowledge helped out a lot!! I started implementing it this week.
I’m so glad that my videos are helping. 😊Most people’s belly fat is stubborn…it tends to be the last place where we lose fat. Annoying, for sure! 😂 I generally don’t make calorie adjustments for age (especially for someone only in their 40s). True changes in metabolism don’t really happen until later on.
If you’re comfortable with 1400, that’s fine.
Are you continuing to lose weight at that calorie intake?
@@IvanaChapman Yes I have continued to lose weight at that calorie deficit. Would it affect my weight loss if I went up to 1,700? I want to lose 10 more pounds. 🙏🏽
You’ll only know if you try! You may find that your weight loss slows down with the slight increase, but maybe not. It’s worth keeping your activity levels the same while you test out a higher calorie intake (just to avoid any confusion).
I would like you to talk about metabolic adaptation. Been yo yo dieting for some time and would like to know if metabolic adaptation is true and if we can do something about it. Love your videos
Glad you like the videos! 😊 Metabolic adaptation does happen…your body makes adjustments all the time based on your activity levels, your body mass and how much you eat. It’s not about permanent changes; but something that can be changed again under the right circumstances. There is too much fear-mongering around about metabolic “damage”.
Bottom line, still need be in a calorie deficit to lose weight.
I'm doing 40k steps and take in 600 calories daily. I've gained weight. My thyroid meds were reduced 6 months ago. I drink 2.5 litres of water daily. I shouldn't im a small woman that never sweats. Im so angry im going to just go off my thyroid meds as I may as well take nothing. I gained 4 pounds in one week and it never came off again. To add insult to injury I also do tae kwon do, basketball and swimming and still bigger. Might giving eating a pass too. Very upset. Was quite underweight and fear the doctor reduced my meds deliberately as she fears I wouldnt gain the weight myself. It would have been as healthy muscle not fat. Now I am just going to refuse thyroid meds altogether as that's not OK.
You only eat 600 calories daily? That’s way too low!
I’m 18, 5’7, 85kg
I have been counting calories since Nov 2023 and its been 2 months since I have started but have only lost 3-5kg it keeps fluctuating but never goes below 80kg
I have been trying to lose weight since March 2023 when I was 99kg
How can I start losing weight I’ve been trying intermittent fasting since the start of this year however my weight is not shifting. I don’t know what to do I need to hit 65kg by summer.
I lift weights 4 times / week. Cardio (cycling /swimming walking etc) 3 times a week 1 hour. I used to weight around 49 kg but now I’m 50!! I’m eating 1200-1500 cal / day am I doing sth wrong? Or should i keep going. ( I’m 19 y/o and 163 cm ) I’m trying to get leaner
I’m trying to get leaner
Same issue. I’ve grown bulkier than I’ve ever been 🥲
I love all your tips!
How much calories should I take?
I’m 5’7, 28, 88kg at the moment.
I started my diet at 98kg, but I am not losing weight anymore! 😭
So glad you’re enjoying my videos. 😊
It does get harder to lose weight as you get closer to your target. Do you know how many calories you’re currently taking in?
I just wish I didn’t have so much fat in places I don’t want. I am like 140 pounds and ppl say I look good but I have fat in places that make me look so ugly
I think clean eating means not eating lucky charms or canola oil. You know what the FDA is saying is more healthy than beef and eggs
totally agree on what you have mentioned in this video.
Happy to hear that! 😊

I’ve been working out for 2 years for 2 hours for 2 days out of the week. I also play basketball so I really work out 4 days out of the week and I’ve lost only 10 pounds over this period of time. I don’t diet but I drink a lot of water and eat more healthy foods than Junk. What would you suggest I do? I am also 5’7
Start by tracking what you're eating and seeing how many calories you're taking in.
From my experience, the real problem has been carbohydrates. I say that because most of the things that contain carbs are high in carbs compared to, say, steak or chicken. You need a lot more protein and veggies in A. With far less calories than if you're to be adding many carbs. baked potatoes are really good for you if you eat the skins Because they have selenium and a lot of fiber and many more things. However, if you look at potato chips, they come out to be like one carbohydrate per chip with no fiber to counteract the carbs. Staying as far from white sugar and white flour. Is a great idea. Our bodies are just not meant to have those in it. And I don't care what people say about crackers that have fiber and whole grains and such. They're still high in carbs because nobody ever eats what's a real serving. Or most people don't. So you have to be really careful. And it doesn't matter what carb. And all proteins are not created equal. if you're going to try to get a good amount of protein say 50 grams, you can do that with steak. But if you're doing it with beans, you have to eat several cups of say pinto beans to get 50 grams which are also high in carbs per serving. It's also a proven fact that lean red meat like sirloin has very important nutrients and vitamins in it that you cannot get from veggies and other sources. if you're eating eggs, you have to eat 10 eggs a day. Chicken and beef have very different nutritional values. They can choose what they eat every day if they want to eat a piece of cake every day. They can do it. They just. They just have to make sure they're not having a large French fry that day too. You can have carbs with every meal. I suggest things like baked potatoes with the skin, 7 grains sprouted bread. I cook eggs in avocado oil spray. So watching your carbs is important, both the type of carb and how much you eat daily. Most people can do well with eating a low carb diet. If done right. You're not keeping yourself. from your favorite foods. you just have to tweak it until it does the job.
Thanks for sharing
Just eat green salads 5 times a day for the next 1 year and tell me you didnt loose weight.
Natural food over processed is the right working and it does make a difference to the health and wellbeing not only to weight gain.
First 13 days, i lost 3kg.
7 days later i lost 0.8kg
But another 7 days i lost 0.1kg
Thats frustrating
Can you lose weight while drinking alcohol? Like 1 or 2 drinks on the weekend?
Yes! 😀 In fact, I even created a video about it: ruclips.net/video/r5yHhi2Kxlg/видео.html
@@IvanaChapman oh nice !! Thank you 💛
I have lost 65 pounds just counting calories and exercising. I’ve gone from 235 to 172 but I’m totally stuck. I was mostly doing cardio but now I’ve started weight training. My diet is basically the same. I am 61. I eat 1200-1400 calories every day. But I am totally stuck. I’ve been the same weight for 3 months. I’m confused. It was working for a long time but it just stopped working 😔.
Congrats on your weight loss! It’s actually relatively easier to drop the first part of the weight (when you have more weight to lose) than it is when you get closer to your target. I have a video coming up where I talk about it. Starting weight training is a good start. Are you also keeping an eye on your protein and fiber intake?
@@IvanaChapman I just started watching that! Looking forward to your video!
Hi Jenny! Thanks for coming to the livestream! 😊 I remembered your comment, but for some reason it wasn't on my list. Do you think you know what you need to do now?
@@IvanaChapman I think so. I started weight training in February and I can see some results from that. I am thinking maybe I have gotten a bit lax on my calories counting although I track every day, but I’m going to double down on making sure I’m
Counting everything. I am logging around 1200-1300 calories a day but, if I am missing stuff it could be more. Also I am working to get my protein up, so I’m going to focus more on that. At least hearing some of the questions you read I know I’m not alone in this situation. I know I could eat less and probably get the scale moving but… less than 1200 is hard.
You’re definitely not alone! 😊
I would generally not recommend less than 1200…although, as you said, you probably haven’t been consistently that low. In your case, I wouldn’t go any lower with the calories.
Since you’re new to weight training, I would focus on building strength and muscle. Make sure that your training is progressive. Give yourself a year.
Maybe worry less about the calorie total and focus more on the protein (as you said), but also fiber (20-25g a day) and some fats. Focus more on the quality of the nutrition you’re taking in. Pay attention to how it makes you feel. In some cases, that means slightly more calories. Hope that helps!
What about post menopausal women? Trying to lose those pounds is hard even with lower caloric intake…can you help us too?
Being menopausal or post-menopausal itself is not associated with fat gain. There is, however, a shift in weight distribution (more fat in midsection rather than hips/thighs, which is more common pre-menopause). For anyone 35+, the emphasis on weight training and consistent protein intake becomes more important.
@@IvanaChapman I lift weights, walk, do yoga AND watch what I eat. Seems in the last 6 months my weight has increased and I can’t figure out what to do. Thanks for listening and responding
Calories in calories out is bull shit js
Nope!
im 16, 175 cm and currently 82kg. last 3,5 months i went down 18kg. so 1,5 kg per week. last 2 weeks nothing happened weight wise and i did everything as before. i dont get it pls help
Have u found anything that’s helped ?? How did u lose weight before ??
@@uvvcindy Yess!! Just push through! after 2 weeks of losing no weight and doing my excercise 6 times a week I just pushed through and lost my 1,3kg the following week! It's called a plateau and is natural so just dont lose focus and within the next 14-21 days youll lose weight again 👍🏼
@@rage2136 how did u lose weight before ? I’ve only lost about 5lbs :/
@@uvvcindy well i did high intensity full body workouts for only about 30min each excercise till failure and went jogging each morning till failure so for me it was about base 15min + about 2-3mins improvement a day when running (also till failure basically). also keep in mind what u eat in a day
@@rage2136 how much do u eat a day? Like calorie intake ? 🥲
Excellent point. I’ve been eating well and cut alcohol out. The good foods have put me over on the calorie count, but my body shape is improving due to exercise and low carb.
Keep up the good work!

I can't stand counting calories, but I guess I need to.
You don't need to, but it can be helpful to get some information initially.
What’s the best way to calculate a true calorie deficit?
Don't eat fast food salads.
👍
In the past 4 years or so I lost 20 kgs for the first time in entire life from 95 kg to 75 kg with JUST walking !...
Now I got those 20kg back and just walking doesn't work so I decided to work out o. Treadmill and the cycle while increasing my heart rate from 140-160 (I am 35 yo) I also exercise while fasting for at least 16 hours but 0 grams lose and sometimes weight is gained 😢 (I use smart scale) plz help why I no longer lose fat with just walking! And y am no longer losing weight at all !...
Thanks,
Same! I gained 5kg from walking 10000 steps everyday n it feels impossible to shred now. I look so bulky and unhealthy!
@nyurmaeden did u lose a lot.of weight recently before gaining those 5kg ?
@@dronetheworld4k67 no I didn’t lose lot of weight but I did feel fit. I thought I was going to get fitter but weeks after my family started noticing how bulky I looked over all
@nyurmaeden I am noticing recently (after my original comment) that am starting to lose a little more weight and a bit of body fat, of course thanks to excersing while increasing my heart rate (am 35yo and the Minimum heart rate should be 130 and I try maintain 140+) and the most important thing I started eating clean and staying away from refined carbs and junk crap food, this morning I went to the gym and surprisingly had a satiating healthy meal, if I keep losing weight the next couple of days with my routine I'll let u know, apparently walking steadily no longer does the trick for us !...
@@dronetheworld4k67 thank you so much! Please do update! I’ll follow your advice
