    You might not believe this but I am a long time viewer who is not keto, never tried keto, don't ever want or need to go keto - but I started watching you two during the lockdown of 2020 and enjoyed your funny personalities so much I kept watching!!! You are doing so much more than teaching ppl about a keto lifestyle - you are sharing your personal journey with your sister and it is so heartwarming and encouraging and always makes me smile. Thank you so much ❤

    You girls always looked great! I hope you know that carrying weight on the lower half of the body is healthier than having it in the abdomen. Thanks for your work and for your openness. Your channel is positive, uplifting, and warm. Thanks for not BS-ing us & just saying it like it is. Obesity is a lonely road. I, too, have been up & down, & just don't know anyone who understands. You girls do. Sorry that you do, but at least you took care of it while relatively young. Congrats. You're inspiring ❤

    You two young ladies are delightful and beautiful in front of the camera. I'm 76 and keto since 2018. Keto has been liberating to me. Not fighting the scale. Not worrying about how I look from behind. And yes, I have pictures to keep me motivated but honestly not even tempted anymore because I have felt so much better. Also I'm the only one of 4 siblings to NOT have diabetes and the health issues that accompany that. Keep up the good work because aside from your own good health, you keep so many people motivated with your channel.

    My daughter’s doctor told her to feed her baby ice cream too!
    It blew her mind because her baby is breast is fed and she and her husband are very health conscious.
    Her baby isn’t underweight!
    Doctors are ignorant when it comes to nutrition. They admittedly only get a brief course on proper diet.
    A lot of them are still stuck on the low fat, no egg yolk trend!

    I'm so inspired by you two...I am smaller than I've BEEN thanks to keto. He really doesn't care, but I will finally be able to take a picture NEXT to him and not half of me behind him...for ME...at some point in this journey 💃💃 💃

    Even before I started Keto, I watched a good many channels related to diet and weight loss. Eventually I came across the Chris Cooking Nashville mashed potato video. That led me to your channel. Honestly, there's something how you do what you do that makes for a relaxed, informative and funny video experience. I know you guys were hoping to get to 250K by the new year. Well, of course you got to 175K. But please keep going. You'll get there soon.

    @randyg7852 8 месяцев назад +5

    I enjoy watching your videos and share often with friends. Love the humor you mix in as well. Had to make a comment on this one because it hit home. I’m 75 years old, 5’11 and was pushing 300 lbs in 2017. I didn’t gain all my weight until I was in my 40’s. Started Keto in April of 2021 and have been holding at about 190 lbs, give or take 5 lbs for the last two years. Feel great and off all meds. What hit home for me in this video was how you felt taking pictures. Like you back then I hated my picture being taken and I also would be the one hiding behind others. I’d even goes as far as deleting pictures if I could. Even now I really don’t like pictures of me being taken. Old habits die hard😎. Keep up the good work. I look forward to your videos in 2024.

    You two are such inspirations. Honestly u were both beautiful always but as a morbidly obese woman myself I totally understand why photos are hurtful. I hate taking pics too as a reminder of my size and multitude of diet failures. Thank u for sharing your journey and being so real about "failing" many times before finding such amazing success. It is really motivation for so many including me. Xoxo❤

    🎉I have been on keto for six months now. You girls have been a real joy to me. I am proud of you and you are both beautiful girls. I understand the fact about the weight loss. That is just literally what I am going through. I lost a huge amount of weight and then I slowed down and even put on a couple of kilos, which when you are strict which I am..I am not giving in. I have lost some more weight so I will keep going. Also I feel so much better on the keto lifestyle, so thank you girls and lots of blessings 💞

    @katemarlor1816 8 месяцев назад +2

    Love this channel so much. "Technically keto" has been a game changer for me. I don't have too many pics of me before my 40lbs weight loss; mostly because I liked taking them and just wasn't in them. But, going through old clothes tells the real story of weight loss. Great job and congrats to anyone on the keto journey too.

    @sueellens 8 месяцев назад +1

    Thank you for sharing this…truly. I understand how you feel about pictures. I’m 62 and have been on the diet-weight loss yo-yo for my entire life. You’re both beautiful…in the past and now. My girlfriends to this day will take my picture and rave about how ‘cute’ I look and I make them delete it…because I don’t think ‘cute’ fits a woman of my age, AND I not only have weight to lose, I have rolls of skin. Sure, but I’m ‘cute’ 🙄 😂. They do it to bug me, but they are really supportive of me in my journey. I appreciate you both and absolutely love your channel. I took a preop video and pictures of me right before I had bariatric surgery. I lost, then gained during Covid (not placing blame on that…I was like many, not handling it all as well as I could have). Now, I have the technically keto community to help me along. The pictures I took of me, make me take notice of where I was…and where I am now. 💋💋

I have severe osteoarthritis in both knees and no cartilage in one knee and very little in the other knee. I also have rickets because of dangerously low vitamin d levels. I'm not steady at all. I have to use a walker and a wheelchair. Its really difficult now. Thank you so much for all you do. God bless you always.❤

    • @firequeen2194
      @firequeen2194 8 месяцев назад

      I’ve been there. 305 was my highest weight. Start with one thing at a time if you need to. Give up one thing at a time until you get to full keto. Maybe every two weeks to allow your body to adjust. Do not forget hydration! Electrolytes will be so important. You’re already on RUclips so search chair workouts, there are TONS. I suggest Fabulous over 50s (I think that’s it). Quick, easy workouts with no judgement. Just start. One day at a time. And if you slip up, do not give up. Restart immediately. Yes, it will be hard but you can do it! Bright blessings to you.

And you both have wonderful husbands who love you for who you are and consider you beautiful. I can see it in the photos. And now you are healthier beauties! Your kind hearts and warm spirits shine through in all you do for us. As to the first photo you showed of when you were little, my guess is Emily is on the left and Sarah is on the right. I couldn’t see it too clearly though. Is it unusual for twins to differ in height? Just curious. Thank you for this very encouraging video!💗💗

I went a bit more clean as I didn't like all the grease but in 1 year I lost 50 pounds! I went from a size 18 to an 8 as I am now 165 and counting! I kept pictures along my journey and I kept 1 pair of my "fat" pants. I hold them up for update pictures.

I’ve lost 130+ pounds and some days I still feel 305 (my highest weight). I’m in maintenance now and it’s still a struggle. I’m loving all the new recipes and products available to us now. Thanks for the Hero and LMNT recommendations. 😘

    Gotta say, you ladies should be proud of yourself for being out there. It’s not easy being vulnerable, especially sharing pictures. I really enjoy your content. You’re not afraid of making mistakes, which makes the videos much more enjoyable. Cause hey, we’ve all messed up when we’re cooking.
    Unfortunately, many of the products you use/buy/promote are not available in Canada. So I try and find something similar, or an alternative. I got the most excited about your samosa recipe. A brilliant idea using the low carb wraps!!! On my list to try 👍👍

    @TheSchellb 8 месяцев назад

    I love you two, you are the best! I am also tall 5'11" age 70, been doing Keto since 2017, had lost 50lbs. During maintenance, end of gaining 10lbs, which seemed normal. This last year I gained 20lbs back, pretty sure it was due to stress as my husband had a total hip replacement from a fall and was in hospital/rehab for 8 weeks. Going back and forth to be with him, was doing Keto not very well at all. I'm now trying to stick to Keto but it is still very hard. Keep up the great work, I'll keep watching you two.

    Also, the quirky things that I do to cover up, long sweaters and jackets, etc.
    You ladies are so honest. Thank you for putting yourselves out there. You don't know how truly helpful you are to others. Keep it up, ladies!❤❤

    First of, let me say that you two were beautiful both before and after the weight loss! I can totally relate to the getting-your-photo-taken aversion though, I used to call it my “disembodied floating head syndrome”, as my disembodied floating head would usually be somewhere at the very back of a group photo lol…

    @lawriewilliams639 3 месяца назад

    All your candid honest conversations mean so much to all of us who have struggled with the same wt issues. Boy did I identify with your photo phobias! I trained my husband to photograph me as a head shot or chest up only as I too, carry my weight in my hips and legs. I always hid behind anything I could find, a car door, a rock, a person, peeking around a tree or a monument while on vacations, anything! And I never wanted to be in the foreground of a group pic bc it made me look even bigger than everyone else in the photo. I’d direct anyone taking photos to get on the far side of me so I’d be in the background. Oh how I can identify w/ hating photos of myself most of my life. But after losing about 125# on keto in last 20 months I now fuss hubby if he doesn’t take ENOUGH photos of me! Now I even photograph myself full body each time I wear a new outfit …yes I love dressing again vs dreading it so thank you again for your open candid bear your soul honesty. I love watching all your videos and I’ve learned so much from yal in my journey. You make it fun and humorous and don’t take yourselves too seriously. You’ve become a part of our family and my hubby will walk through the tv room and see you on it and say so what are the keto twins up to today? 😊I also want to say how much I respect yall for forging through and creating content no matter what’s going on in your life. I was so saddened to hear about your dad and your family’s loss. 😢 you truly have a fan base that grieves with you and for you. 🙏🥰 hang in there. We need you both. I don’t normally write this much or at all even, but I’m an ardent follower and fan. …And couldn’t not comment ❤❤

    Can relate. I remember how debilitating always hiding from cameras was. I don’t have any photos from my fat years in the 90’s bc if I ever saw any I would destroy them on the spot. Harder to do when digital came out though, but luckily I was trending healthier by then. I found the only way I could do it was avoid sugar completely bc just one hit of it and I was out of control. Now we have substitutes which is just amazing, and the recipe searching is how I found your channel. Thank you for sharing this experience so candidly. I’ve never talked to anyone about it before and I am grateful to know I wasn’t alone in making myself miserable with the neurosis over being captured on camera looking (and more importantly, feeling) gross.

    You might want to consider investing in a Foodsaver vacuum seal device. For me it was a well spent $80 and you can get replacement bag rolls online at reasonable prices. This can help reduce food waste and spoilage as well as help in food prep storage.
    I buy frozen veggies and keto friendly berries (Strawberry, Raspberry, Blueberry) and after I open the bag to use, I put the remaining amount in a foodsaver bag. This helps to keep the ice from forming and I haven't had any waste caused by freezer burn. If you have the freezer space, you can buy the larger bulk bags and using the "sealer bag rolls" create a bag with enough extra length to allow you to cut along the seam, take what you want, and reseal. Key tip is do not bend the bags after you seal it if you want to reuse it - only manipulate what is inside the bag after you have re-opened it and separate at the seam you cut. Also, use a Sharpe / perm marker to note the date on the bag.
    Foodsaver vacuum also support advance meal prep. You can make multiple types of meals in advance, freeze into your desired serving size(s) and take a "grab and go" approach". You can meal prep for "pre-cook" and "reheat". I cook chicken then after it cools, make stir fry packs. I make zucchini fritters (zucchini & motzarella cheese) to freeze and add egg when cooking. This works for a large pot of soup or stew ... just need to put the Foodsaver device on something to accommodate the height of the bag used since there is liquid involved and you can't lay it down. This "grab and go" works great ... take what you want out of the freezer the night before and it will be ready to pack in your lunch bag or for dinner. If you forgot to take it out - no problem - you can put it in a bowl/pot of cool water and it will help speed up the thawing out (actual experience talking here). Also works great for freezing home made jerky.
    I've made Keto friendly ice cream but put the ice cream in silicone small cup cake size pan - froze it, the smaller portion ice cream cups in vacuum seal bags with reseal space. This works wonderful for portion control and extends the storage duration of the ice cream.
    For me, the Foodsaver vacuum sealer device has been well worth the initial investment.

    We have all done those camera tricks, avoided photos and felt awful or horrified then depressed upon seeing the photos. Its hard enough seeing the photos ourselves but posting them on YT taps into every woman's anxiety. Much respect to both of you and congrats on your hard work and success!

    In every photo I've ever taken I've been hiding behind someone. I have called people up and told them to take my photo off of Facebook at least three or four times. I've lost quite a bit of weight on keto and now carnivore for about a year I still have about 40 more pounds to go. I think I'll always be hiding behind somebody's camera.

    You lost weight & look great now but even back then you were kind & lovely at a heavier weight. I wouldn’t think twice about having a friendship with you then or now. I’m 6’ & wished I had a tall friend to share tough times & good times with.
