I've been folowing Dr. Becky for a year now and if you listen to her, I PROMISE you will be glad you did! Being educated by her has changed my life and is now changing my husband's life.
Oh wow, the scale bit was so true!!! When I stand on the scale I get so hopeless and depressed! Frankly, I have just stopped weighing myself. I am still working on weight loss of course, but I just can't handle the number situation. When my clothes fit better, I feel better and have more energy; that is more important than some stupid number on a scale. Also, I loved the looking in the mirror part. It is hard. But I have prayed a lot about this because I am naturally negative. Not just being honest with yourself but also positive affirmations!! This body gave birth to 3 children! It has taken me around my whole life for 34 years. This body is a GIFT from God and I am the one who has defiled it with junk, garbage and idleness. SMILE is great advice! I will do that! Thank you, Dr. Becky!! 🙏🏻👏🤗❤🤩
My first meal is my big salad.And I love the colors, the colors, the black beans, the red roasted peppers, the green romagne.Lettuce everything is so beautiful
Thank you, i am on maintenance currently, i dropped 190lbs in the last 11 months, I do ultra clean keto, and now i am more ketovorie. I am doing well maintaining my current weight 190-193lbs. Awesome tips.
I was looking for keto recipes to share with my cousin and came across your videos. I have always been thin but after a series of events I gave up. Eating bad, drinking & gained a lot of weight. I ended up in the hospital on an unrelated illness. One visit to my Dr changed my life. My anxiety was through the roof along with my weight, 226lbs. We discussed keto and under his supervision, I started. May 29th, 2020. I lost 86 lbs by the end of the year. We were both amazed. You have so much information that I've been spending hours watching your videos and taking notes. Thank you for your videos. I can't wait to share with my doc on next visit. ❤
Just found you today while doing a stopper activity of passionfruit electrolyte powder. I was doing this but didn't realize it had a name! I'm 30 lbs overweight and 100% accept and love myself finally after decades of eating disorders and suffering.
Hi Rick again! You should add one more tip to your list and that tip is "Watch this video at least once a Week!" Will have to purchase your recipe book; I ordered my Element Products yesterday on Amazon and they arrive today! All of these tips are so practical and easy to follow which is why I am writing a post-it note to watch this video every Thursday morning! Keep up the great work, Cheers, Rick
I have been hovering on a weight number for 2 weeks. Just won’t budge.. I did the tip of the post it note. The first 3 days, I had the note about 20# lower.. thought maybe I should just do a few pounds. So I changed it and went 2 days without looking. Omg! This works. I can’t believe it. I broke the plateau and was 2# less. The scales was on the number of my post it. Thank you so much. And I even had a reason to do the 1 minute of smiling. 😊
I would like to use lmnt, but it simply has to much sodium for me. I wish they would make one with reduced sodium ( by half); and increase mag & potassium. Dr. Becky is a wonderful teacher she explains things so well. I now use a cup of green tea for my stopper. Afterwards, I floss & brush my teeth. That alone discourages me to sneak a snack. It signifies that eating for the day is over.❤❤❤ I
Spaghetti squash and zucchini noodles are my favorite. I prepare my own pasta sauce as well. Instead of potatoes or rice, I prepare cauliflower mashed and rice, and for the mashed, I sometimes add mashed broccoli. I also prepare zucchini fries. Thank you.
Thank you for this it's amazing 👏🏾 I took a look at myself in the mirror before listening to your video and said to myself I love you and my lips are a nice color without lipstick, and I thanked God for blessing me to be me. I will put my ideal weight on my scale but for me it's about building muscle, getting stronger and just being happier with the way I feel . Thank you for being so inspiring 💗
I think this might be my favorite of your videos, Dr. Becky! I don't think I realized there was an actual term- stoppers- for the distractions I built into my days, so that was affirming, but I also quite appreciate more levity in this video than usual! Well done!!🤗
I don't use a scale. I have one, but have not looked at it since 2021. Instead, I use my clothes to gauge my body composition. I know myself and will get fixated on the number😅
These are wonderful ideas, especially the post it note on the bathroom scale one! My number will be 130... I'm currently doing the 30day zero sugar challenge after purchasing your book- I'm on Day 21 and down 7.5 lbs! Encouraging my husband and son to get on board with it too :)
Thank you for the video and the tips. I really enjoy your other videos and have purchased several of your books for reference and use in my quest to get back to my best weight, down 10 lbs with 15+ more to go. Cheers, Rick
Dr. Becky, since I bought the box of LMNT chocolate medley, it has become my "stopper"! Half a stick pac in a mug of hot water after my evening meal is satisfying & acts as my dessert. LMNT is great,& I am so glad you told us about it!
Another extremely helpful video. I have to admit I laughed with a sticky note putting it over this scale but after listening to everything you said about it I really thought yeah I think it could work. Have you ever heard of the book then within sort of along that line is what I was thinking if you think of yourself as then it helps to go along way. Thank you so much Dr. Becky for all your help not just for a few but for many. This is a well thought out video and I’m sure it takes a lot of time to come up with the content. 😀
Great tips - love (and regularly use) the stopper idea. I finally am trying LMNT thx to you. Appreciate the peak into how you use it - your small amount in sparkling water approach - because I’m old enough to have been brainwashed thinking salt (or salty food) isn’t the best for us.
Love your channel, thank you. I also love Buddy the Elf hahaha. Funny I just said to my mom yesterday as we were grocery shopping. Yes I want that but I know there is nothing healthy in it and only a few mintutes of satisfaction. My mother brought us up to eat healthy, thank you mom ♥Doesn't mean we don't endulge but we have that healthy minset base.
Thank you Dr. Becky. This blog prodded me to pull out my carefully hidden scale. I've lost 63lbs!! Wholly Mackinaw! Watching my T2 and low carb'ing has definitely been working...... and staying away from the scale!
I almost spit out my keto coffee when you said “I have 2 ears, but they’re too big “. Great video! Speaking of keto coffee, I can’t believe how good it tastes 😊
Great video! ❤ I used your link to get the free sample pack of LMNT so thank you! I bought the Watermelon flavor and it’s good but I am blown away at how delicious the Citrus salt is! It’s so nice to be able to try all of the flavors. I’ve been drinking one stick per day in 32 oz. of water. You really do get used to the saltiness after several days and I feel great with it and Keto which I started on Jan 3rd. 😊❤👍💕😃
I completly forgot about zucchini sqaush as a replacement. I have also developed a cookie recipe with zero sugar and is very healthy as well. I can share if you wish!
I thought you weren’t suppose to drink liquids after eating because it breaks down the digestive enzymes. I did drink an lmnt water after lunch and it did help. I thought maybe the info on no liquids while eating or soon after was not true. I’m hoping Very good video!
Hi Dr. Becky, have been following you for several years. Always interesting videos. Glad your husband is doing well now, he looks good. Here's the thing - do you think that genetics have a large say in your body composition and health. I have always hated sugary things and dislike most vegetables. My weight has been constant for the last 50 years. Am 6 1 and 164 lb. It never changes - even if I go on holiday and drink lots of beer - never changes more than a couple of pounds and a few days later it is back to normal. Very weird. I see people on youtube who lose 50 lbs and it just seems amazing.
Hi Steve, genetics can certainly be contributing to your consistent weight. Weight is not the only factor that determines overall health, but if your bloodwork shows good health, consider yourself blessed!
Do you have a video on how to workout or keep moving while on your period? When im on it im so tired. Bloated. My legs are heavy and tired. I dont workout anymore. Im lazy.
I’m listening, but you almost lost me at “125”, not reality for me or probably any average woman these days. I am still interested in your information, though. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, learn how to cook, learn cooking techniques, techniques is different from learning recipes!!!! I cook three different meals in one hour to eat for a week! Don’t cook daily, cook once or twice for a week! Cook in bulk! 👍🏻
Can you drink too much LMNT per day? / too many electrolytes? I struggle with bad night muscle cramps when I cut to 1200 calories per day and I am thinking this may help.
Believe it or not, a tablespoon of plain ol’ yellow mustard will stop cramps IMMEDIATELY. For really bad Charlie horses, I’ve eaten up to three. Never had to eat more and one spoonful usually does the trick. Hope you try this; I’ve used it for years.
I personally don't think you tips are helpful for me. I do want to say, you shouldn't loose weight to look prettier or to fit into a piece of clothing. You should instead eat healthy so your body will work at it's best. You should find moving activity that you love and gently stretch to keep your body in shape so you are able to reach for something you want that is up high, and be able to lift something down low. You need to keep your balance for washing your feet and the shower and traversing uneven ground so you don't fall. Keep your arms and legs strong, so you can fight if you have to, to keep yourself safe, and breath deep to keep you lungs working properly. You may or may not like your looks or your life, but by doing the above things you will be at your best to do something about it.
"Will I be happy that I ate it?" That's a big one! It has stopped me a time or two.
Our bodies are amazing. We are “fearfully and wonderfully made”
Amen!
Yes! 🙏❤️
Amen
Amen!
Amen!

I had a double hip implant two years ago. I found you while in rehab and I still find your knowledge and kindness invaluable. Thank you doctor!
Thank you for your comment, Paul! A double hip implant is quite a thing to recover from.
A dill pickle has been my favourite meal ender (stopper) ever since I was a kid
I’m going to try this suggestion🥒 thank you!
Thank you, i am on maintenance currently, i dropped 190lbs in the last 11 months, I do ultra clean keto, and now i am more ketovorie. I am doing well maintaining my current weight 190-193lbs. Awesome tips.
Congratulations to you. I’m down 95 pounds and have another 50 to go. When I think back to where I started I keep telling myself I’m NOT going back.
I have not changed my work ID badge to remind me not to go back to the old uneducated ways of eating/living.@@fransak2723

Best advise ever! Outlook matters, weight loss takes time.
I love the stopper technique that’s brilliant!
I am so happy that I found you! Your voice is so reassuring and peaceful. It makes me feel like I can actually do it this time. ❤
Welcome!

Wonderful, Dr. BG. Lovely to listen to. Lovely to see. I am smiling :)
Number one is brilliant! The stopper is a great reminder of what I used to do and need to start doing again. Smiling, of course, is also my favorite 😊
Thanks for sharing these great tips.
Smiling's my favorite.
I appreciate you so much !
Thank you! That brings a smile to my face ;)
Dr Becky, this is one of your best videos to date; awesome strategies shared! Beautiful in their simplicity ❤
Thank you! That's great to hear!
As usual great advice from Dr. Becky.
Dr. Becky makes so much sense. Taste is overrated-what a gem.
Herbal tea is my stopper
LOVE this strategy, Dr. Becky! Thank you!

Great idea about the ideal weight "on" the scale. I'm trying keto again to get the last 20 lbs off. Last time in 2018 I lost 4" off my waist.
Thank you dr Becky. I love your delivery

These are excellent advise and directional tips.
I am going to put them in action this week.

Congratulations on getting started with your keto diet! I wish you the best! I like citrus and grapefruit the most :)
How many times a day should you drink water with electrolytes added to it?
It is much more than a "fake it until you make it."
Will it satisfy my hunger or stimulate it? Will I be happy that I ate it? These are great questions.
I completly forgot about zucchini sqaush as a replacement. I have also developed a cookie recipe with zero sugar and is very healthy as well. I can share if you wish!
Please share if it has no carbs.

Does that mean no more Dark Chocolate 85% after your high protein/high fat/ low carb meal?

Do you have a video on how to workout or keep moving while on your period?

I’m listening, but you almost lost me at “125”, not reality for me or probably any average woman these days. I am still interested in your information, though. Keep up the good work!
