I’m so glad more people are coming out about the ACTUAL way a person can lose weight. We don’t NEED injections or medications to lose weight, most of the time. Most of us just eat TOO DAMN MUCH. And too much processed and fake foods
@@aoutsky there’s nothing wrong with taking medications FOR YOU! I’m not trying to yell, but trying to show we all want different things for our life, and that’s okay. However, some people don’t mind being at big pharmas mercy, but I don’t want that to be my life. Yes losing weight and maintaining is hard! BUT being obese and even severely obese is hard too! They’re both hard, you gotta choose your hard. And if you know you’re emotional eating, you’re halfway there, don’t know your belief system, but ask the Lord to help you and maybe think about getting a counselor to get to the root of your problem, hope this helps anyone!
@@graciousgrace7509intermittent fasting can help with that! Now if you’re hormones and stuff are out of whack, you should probably discuss that with your healthcare provider
You are so right! Our culture is fast instead of eating right. We are not raised to gain any nutritional habits like let’s say the eastern countries. I can’t speak for all Americans but yup, I eat too damn much or not the right stuff. I do t want to take meds and need to do better. That’s why I am here to listen and learn. ❤❤
I lost 108 pounds and did 1 hr workout every other day like probaly 3 days out the week I would dance,and that’s it I lost 108 Lb in 7 months and yeah my doctor was shocked and yeah I did omad,alternate day fasting,and tons of fiber and water,and yeah I had a big ton of challenges as a teen at 307 Lb but I’m 190 Lb and I’m very healthy
Wowww I'm so proud of you! When I was a teen I always danced and it kept the weight down all the way int my 20's and early 30's. So, I need 100lbs off now myself. So you recommend ADF? I was thinking of that.
Retired physician here. Your doctor was 100% wrong when he/she told you that you can't gain muscle at your age. Anybody can gain muscle at any age with proper resistance training, diet, rest and supplementation. Also, I would look for natural ways to suppress the appetite instead of using prescription drugs, which I don't recommend at all. There are a number of articles using the search term "natural appetite suppressants" that one can find online.
@@realblackmedia3528 Apple cider vinegar mixed with water does wonders for curbing appetite, maximizing digestion, regulating blood sugar levels and eventually losing weight. A shot of ACV in water 30 mins before your largest meal (I measure it in a Dixie cup, add 2 capfuls of ACV, and drink through a straw to prevent tooth acid erosion) will set you on the right track. I lost 15 pounds in 39 days w/o exercise just by doing this
This is why I do not listen to industry doctors. They all spew the same propaganda that benefits the pharmaceutical industry. There are real doctors who are being censored.
Agree! Lost 114 pounds intermittent fasting, completely changed what I eat and I do not starve myself. No injections and working out. I do workout 5 days interval cardio and weight training. Stop doing these diet plans and get on the fasting and lifestyle change. You’ll be a healthier person.
I take injections, workout and intermittent fast. I am 46, pre-menopausal, hormonal weight gain and have insulin resistance. Don’t judge, every human body is not the same, do what works for you.
@@paigew6707Please stop the 🧢. This woman looks nowhere near 40! I myself thought she was late 20’s. 40 is not old but she definitely looks younger than 40.
5 foot 9 male, 30 years, I was about 250 lbs, currently 177 lbs , lost about 83 lbs in about 6 months. I have been trying to lose weight since 2016 and I now find what “works for me” and I am happy with it. Thank you for the video. What you're saying is extremely true. You lose most of your weight through how much you eat compared to how much you use energy daily . I tried counting my calories making sure I eat the amount of food I need to lose weight. I tried Keto, I tried intermittent fasting. They all worked but I could not sustain it, and I could not keep the weight off. What worked for me, keywords ‘worked for me’ is doing a physical activity I enjoyed the most without worrying about what I ate. I started playing Tennis about 3-4 times a week. Each session lasted for about 2-3 hours. I would play an actual ‘competitive’ match with 2-3 sets, (25-30 games). I also started running 5K in the morning the days I didn't play tennis when I was in the mood to do so. I took 90 minutes when I start because I was walking 80% of the time. After 3 months I could finish in 38 minutes, my fastest lap so far. Week 1 run for 30 seconds and walk for 4 minutes. Week 12 run for 5 minutes walk for 2 minutes. (next goal is to run for for 15 minutes) When it comes to food, I ate once a day. I found out its called OMAD (One Meal A Day) . I ate anything in that meal but I made sure I was eating enough, not too much or too little. After 2 weeks of starting the tennis I started finding it hard to eat a lot, so I started counting calories to make sure I eat at least 1800 calories. Most of my meals were home cooked meals like rice, beans, chicken beef stew, veggies and I would eat fast food like 2-3 times a week, chipotle, mcdonalds, Pizza. Another thing I changed was making sure that what I drank did not have calories, Like water, coke zero fresca, black coffee, rooibos tea. For tea I would use Splenda. For me, drinking regular coca cola and coke zero is the same. So this works for me to just change to zero sugar drinks. At some point through playing tennis too much and running I started having knee pain and other joint pains because Tennis and running is really hard on the joints. Did some research and I started going to the gym, 2-3 times a week, reduced running to twice a week instead of 4 times and playing tennis twice a week, only on the weekend. The weight training made my shoulders and knees feel strong on the tennis court, I didnt have pains after running or tennis sessions Your energy metabolism is your BMR, the amount of calories your body burns just to stay alive everyday. Breathing, Heartbeat, using your eyes, ears, smell….basic body functionality. My BMR is about 1800 calories, You can increase or add on to this number manually by doing something everyday like walking for 30 minutes - an hour in the morning or at night listening to audio books. That's about 300 calories = 2100 calories total burned per day just by living and walking. Add other activities like 2 hours tennis, gym, running and thats another 800 calories on top daily average. = 2900 total. I ate between 1800 - 2500 calories daily and. Sometimes, maybe once or twice a week I would order a large 14 inch Pizza, Eat 3 slices in the afternoon and eat the rest at night watching my shows after my workouts. Some days I couldn't finish the whole thing, especially now im below 180 lbs I get full quicker than before. Buy a kitchen scale and body scale, Eat the same way you eat every day, and find out how much you eat without dieting. record weight and how you feel about yourself everyday for 30 days, find out if you are gaining or losing. Increase or reduce calories accordingly. That is a good place to start. Wierd things that works for me: -Its easy for me to skip breakfast, it takes about 4-6 hours after waking up to feel hungry. -Exercise or doing something physical curbs my appetite. -Sitting on the computer all day or watching tv makes me veeeeery hungry. -If I do a morning run, then sit on my computer, it takes about 6-8 hours to start feeling hungry -If I eat what I don't like I will crave what I like and end up eating too much of what I like eventually. -I eat my feelings, exercise releases stress and I just don't feel like eating as much. -when my day job became my passion, I didn't think of food as much, had to set reminders to eat so that I don't faint or die. Key Takeaways: -weight loss is more sustainable when feel satisfied throughout the day -Download myfitnesspal on your phone. -log everything you eat. -Experiment on your body, and take notes like a scientist. -Try everything(Keto, Running, OMAD, Low Carb…) you think will work for at least 4 weeks. -try out low calorie substitutes of food you love. -Take notes, reflect, make changes, repeat. -Stick to it once you find what works or what works and you are happy with it.
I was 260lbs this year in January & now in July, I am 195lbs which I lost the total of 65lbs . I did exercise & fasting with a nutrition plan that I follow do to my Pseudotumor Cerebri. I did a lot of discipline & consistency during my workouts plus I do yoga in between. 💪🏽🔥
I don't know how I ended up on this video and this comment, but I also have pseudotumor cerebri. It was the result of an MRI this past April. I don't have much information about it and everything online seems vague on how to treat it. The endocrinologist can't seem to help and didn't even address it until I brought it up from the neurologists notes. What diet are you following, if you don't mind me asking? Like, how are you being treated? I'm lost and and the medical professionals aren't helping 😭
I laughed so hard at this video and almost cried because every word you are describing is me. I need a MAJOR makeover, rewire and repair of my femininity. I have started healing from past pain of a major betrayal and I really want to be that loving kind feminine woman I once was but better.
Agree with your message. Lost 50lbs over a 11 month period at age 59, (yes can be done naturally post menopausal). Have kept the weight off for six years. Good advice!
@healthyinformation I'm still currently intermittent fasting. It is not bad, but it has only been a week. I thought I wouldn't make it, but I am doing good. I am less hungry in the mornings, and the fasting has increased my water intake, which is a major plus. I want to slowly incorporate exercise but I am not there yet. Starting next week, I am going to incorporate stretching.
Thank you. I will hear you out because you have demonstrated success. Nothing is more annoying than hearing from someone who never had a weight issue lecture me about weight loss.
First of all, I love the straightforwardness in your video. I love that you address discipline and our belief system. I’m with you. I’m 5’3 237 lbs and looking to shed the excess fat. I literally don’t want it anymore and I believe I’m able to get it off. I’ve heard this a million times but hearing you say it and seeing your results did something for me.
@@elmirekidd1731 you got this 💪🏾feel free to reach out with any questions you may have while on your health journey. Happy to help if I can. Thank you for watching ❤️
Can you explain further what you mean by Rolling Fasting. Never heard of the term? Do you not get super tired when you’re fasting? Unfortunately I get headaches if I’m super hungry and can’t concentrate.
I started intermittent fasting and changed to a whole food plant based lifestyle and it’s been a game changer no cravings for sweets since I cut out refined carbs, sugar, and processed foods. No calorie counting, I’m full longer & I still eat good food but with medicinal properties. I was losing without exercise but I incorporated walking to keep the blood flowing and now starting strength training. I have so much more energy and I’m never going back just wish I would’ve done it sooner. The processes stuff has addictive components. Diets, moderation did not work for me but this I’m doing for life. Was diagnosed with T2D in June but not to the point of needing medication so I’m working on reversing it and never having that diagnosis again. 37lbs down
Intermittent fasting is what is helping me a lot!! I already lost 16 lbs! For me is working, thanks to my primary doctor who recommended to me. I have been adding exercise little by little, 20 minutes per day, low impact. Going trough menopause is not an excuse. I will always say is depending of the Determination that you have to accomplish your goals in life. I was 212 and I am down to 196. My long term goal is 160 to 165. Thank you for sharing.
I work a job from 6pm-2:30 am. I walk at least 10000 steps a day at work. When I first started I lost a few lbs. But what really helped is starting to eat dinner before I get to work, which would end up being OMAD because the rest of the hrs I’m sleeping. Even though I wasn’t eating a lot before, I never thought I’d be able to eat one meal a day.
Steep tea every day. Substitute sugar with raw honey for sweetener. If you want iced tea, steep it then chill it. It helps kickstart metabolism, replaces sodas and other sugary drinks, and gives the body a ton of antioxidants. You can see results in as little as six weeks if you drink one 16.9oz serving every day. Cheers.
Love out to everyone. This is one of the toughest transitions to a saner and healthier way of being. Two steps forward, one step back; everyday is a new day; This is not your fault; You can do it!!! Education and sanity.
A lot of Dr's dont know squat about weight loss, fitness, and nutrition. They hardly teach it in medical school, and its the same antiquated info. There're lots of women in their 40s, 50s, 60s and 70+ transforming their body and building muscles with strength training
Yup… you can lose weight and get toned at any age. Also if you were an athlete in some form a fashion decades ago your body has muscle memory and will look great again. Start slow and build up.
Great video, I just turned 40 last month and I am starting to incorporate strength training and ADF back into my lifestyle. This pooch has got to GOOOOOOOOOO
Being healthy is more about maintaining mental and emotional health. Exercising helps with confidence. Give you reward signals in the brain. Teaches you discipline and consistency. Believe in yourself and know you are RESPONSIBLE for your health ✨️
I Intermittent fast as well, and I really do think that helps and I also do a month without sugar or two weeks without sugar sometimes 2 months without sugar 🦋😘. Thank you 😊
I'm so thrilled to see that you've conquered your mountain! I’m on a similar journey and it’s been quite a ride. I started my weight loss regime in April 2024, weighing 521 lbs, and thanks to staying consistent with my diet and routine, I’m now down to 430 lbs as of October 2024. I still have a way to go to get it done. I feel more motivated than ever. My doctor prescribed me Ozempic, and it's been a game-changer for me. I've been so inspired by my progress that I've written an ebook on How to Lose Weight Safely While Taking Ozempic. Your video has confirmed that I’m on the right track, and I truly appreciate that! STAY STRONG SIS!!!!
This was a great video! I just started intermittent fasting. I eat only between the hours of 11a to 7p and I'm trying to lose 40lbs. So, I'm hoping that I can get this weight off naturally. Thank you for your insight. ❤
I did not loose weight on Keto. I was shocked. I've been IF-ing before it was a thing to do. I was never hungry in the morning, so I didn't eat breakfast. I'm actually in the process of losing weight that I put on due to my PTSD and even though my BMI is Obese, due to IF my labs are pristine. I have chosen light Pilates and stretching and So far I'm 28 pounds down. I don't really stay off my cravings, but I try to see if there is a healthier option. If not then I remind myself on what is my why. That's been helpful for me.
Did you do strict clean keto though? Products that say keto on them dont always help you, and if you have way too much fat like dairy, that’s a lot of calories to consume.You won’t lose weight with keto if you’d fill eat more calories than you burn
I have been intermittent fasting before it became a thing. Have never been overweight Obviously one doesn’t need to exercise to lose weight , but some sort of exercise routine is useful. Fast paced walking ,some strength work and some simple stretching exercises If you want a tight body try Callanetics
Omg - I just suggested to my Auntie about pairing her snacks with her meals. As a person who has suffered from insulin resistance I’ve been on a rabbit hole of information from various sources for the past 30-45 days - I finally put my theory to the test starting 7/11/24 at 299 lbs now 7/28 at 286 lbs. I pay attention to my macros, walk for 30 mins to an hour 3x per week and IF. I feel great and so ready to keep pushing towards my goal of HEAL(THY) . Healing thy self !!! 🎉
Yessss 💪🏾🙌🏾🎊 Congratulations on your recent Weightloss and the start of your new healthy era. Look like you’re doing everything right! Keep up the good work and feel free to reach out if you have any questions along the way. Happy to help if I can. You got this! ❤️
The physical activity (weights) is so that you make your body stronger. You’ll feel better. Eating less calories than what you burn will add to weight loss. Seek medical advice before intermittent fasting and one meal a day. For some… this could mess you up. For many it’s fine. Best to be sure. Balance in meals is important. This lady is correct. Blood sugar spikes can be managed by the foods you combine when you eat. There are cgm blood glucose monitors out there that help you keep track of what spikes your blood glucose. If you can get a cgm… do it. The journey can be intimidating… but can be done. Edit: Nov 2023 - Today: 44 lbs lost. I’m 57 years old. Was skinny most of my life. Gained weight during Covid… so glad to have it off of me! Good luck everyone and may God Bless us All!
I agree with you 80-90 percent of fitness is what you put in your mouth and how much of it. With that said, I completely recommend some form of strength training training(weight lifting or resistance bands) along with cardio. There is such a thing as “skinny fat”. When someone loses a significant amount of wait but they don’t look healthy and they don’t have any muscle tone. Strength training is beneficial in so many ways. Strengthening not only your muscles but your bones as well. Adding more lean muscle to your body helps slow down the aging process. Weight lifting boost metabolism, lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease, balances blood sugar levels, boost mood, strengthens bones, lowers blood pressure, improves sleep, burns fat, improves posture, etc. the list goes on. At 45 I went back to the gym and at 52 I have more muscle than I ever did in my twenties.
Thanks so much for watching! You are absolutely correct. I discuss many of these exact points in another video I have called “ lose weight and keep it off for good”. Strength training is the fountain of youth!! I typically recommend starting a fitness journey with low intensity steady state cardio so that cortisol levels don’t shoot up. Also most people who are overweight likely need to improve their cardiovascular health. However progressing to incorporate weight training, even a few days a week, is a must!
She is telling you the truth fasting is it! It is all about changing how you look at the food you are putting in the body once you get your mental right, discipline your thoughts and take your time there is no right or wrong way to fast find what works for u and your body type be bless💯💯🤞🤞🙌🙌
💯 Truth l am currently on weight loss medication and been on the lowest dose. I am getting off of it soon cause it actually my diet. So far I have been eating healthy and completely cut out all junk food that I ate.
Im 5'7 130lbs and had a torn rotator cuff. I started 10 minutes ,beginner-friendly workouts a couple of months ago. Havent lost a pound, but the rotator cuff pain is completely gone. Better than paying a physical therapist.
Great video! One of the best I’ve seen. I have lost weight a couple of times in my lifetime of 47 years but still not where I want to be. It’s definitely a lot to do with my mindset and I’m working on that shift. Thank you.
I love love love what you said about weight loss medication. Thank you for not speaking negative about those of us that just need a little kick start to weight loss. I appreciate your commentary.
I am a Nurse and I know better. But hearing it again, will help it stick and help me maintain. I don't want injections or diet pills because for me, they don't change me doing what I know I need to do. Thank you❤.
I think I’m ready to try omad- 5’1 went from 190 to 170 plateau … I’m tired of being overweight and I’m ready to make a drastic lifestyle change tysm for this video it inspired me
Great short video😊! Thank you, finely my insurance approved me for Wegovy, unfortunately it’s not available at the pharmacy. I have to wait until it’s available. I’m 5ft 4inches tall, 236lbs, I’m obese. I will use this prescription as a stepping stone, to start my weightloss, as I continue to change my lifestyle. Thank you for sharing the products. I just started reading about the benefits of glucoman
These are some great insights! I just started incorporating weights in to my workout because I saw how much of my weight was far. 😩 I’m hopeful I can shift my body weight composition as I’m in my 50s and know as I age more it will get worse.
I’m looking forward to reversing this brand new diagnosis of Prediabetes. I’ve been caregiving for several years and it has caught up to me in the form of being off my perfect regimen…now I am a victim of grab and go. I detected some nerve symptoms and asked for a test. Boom. I’m now freaking out but working hard
Thank you for giving tips on this! I was doing personal training and found out I have an issue with discs in my neck. I lost a lot of my progress getting stuck in my head about this new diagnosis and realized while I started feeling better by working out, I wasn’t losing any significant amount of weight. I fasted yesterday over 24 hrs and proved I could do it. I will continue implementing fasting in my routine 💖.
Ianna, lady you look fantastic! Been thinking about keto just because it goes against what heart doctors used to recommend about too much saturated fats. So, over the long term, it may not be that healthy. It just never sat well with me. IF does and I have heard a resounding chorus of advice from fit people, "abs are made in the kitchen" like +80% just like you said. Thank you.
3rd evening on my intermittent fasting journey, & I know that I didn’t happen upon this video by coincidence 🙏🏼😊 Thank you for sharing, & for all of the positive testimonials in the comment section, I’m motivated to keep it up! 🔒
Thank you so much for this video. I feel so encouraged to move forward in weight loss. Second, I am grateful to come across your channel because I am currently an APRN student as well. So it is feels really good to hear educational tips from an APRN!!! Thank you and God Bless you!
The Doctor was absolutely WRONG about gaining muscle at 40 or after. There are people who don’t even start their physical health journey until their 40s. This is the best common sense, straight forward video I have seen in awhile. I would also just recommend to anyone who wants to lose weight but also get toned to 1.) put focus on the kitchen 2.) add some level of consistent cardio that’s fun to you. (Dance, swim, wearing a Fitbit and walking at work) 3.) Strength train twice a week only to start. That can be increased over time.
My height is 5.3 & 243 lbs and walked on the treadmill for 40 minutes, and the next day, 30 minutes & now my right knee is hurting. I was like, it's got to be another way to lose this weight. So, thank you so much for this video!!!
Genetics is a big lie...I take after my grandmother (mom's mom) we are built small petite framed and my mom was the size of Florida-Good Times & Louise-Jeffersons (she's deceased now). I've gained weight due to menopause, (it makes you hungry) but I am determined to lose weight. I am 5-2 and will get back in my size 4's again...Thanks for the videos & encouragement. You look great Young Lady.
Absolutely agree with you. Doing intermittent fasting is been the ONLY thing that actually works for me ive lost 23lbs in 2 1/2 months and counting for the first time and NOT gained it back when i stopped for a month to see if i will do a regain of weight. Never happened and i ate pretty much everything. Also first time i also shred FAT not water weight. Omad is when i lost the most. I recently discovered my first long fast of 5 days on only water.. i wanted to do 7 but i didn’t prepared enough and felt weak by the 5th day and break it. But just in 5 days i lost 10 pounds. ❤ this is absolutely amazing.
you can develop muscle at any age ! get rid of all myths.. and tailor a program for yourself. Great Content.. take one day at a time ! intermittent fasting is a game changer..
You just made me subscribe to you. I like the way you think! Please do more I'm in my health journey, getting serious about. I have to save myself. I rebuke this nonsense that over 40 can't drop the weight and be healthy!
TW: ED... . I agree with its how you're eating primarily. I remember when inwas doing all this activity but still eating the same dont get me wrong i felt a bit fitter and lost a few lbs with activity alone. However, what i know now is diet is most important and you may not have to do so much activity just to offset what you've eaten. I can't do OMAD or extended fasting periods some may be able to relate due to binge eating/restrictive eating patterns and prolonged fasting triggers this because i feel like i need to overcompensate after. I find being more flexible with what I eat not being too restrictive but tracking protein as a priority encouraged me t fill up with satiating foods first. And dont eat fast food any more i could but it dont taste the same. Meal orep helps too ease the pressure and time after work but again not too strict with it but i eat what i prepared 9 times out of 10. I still snack but try to vhoose lower calorie, more nutrient dense snacks first such as pop corn low fat yoghurt pumpkin seeds fruit dark chocolate. So if there's some days in thebweek i want a chocolate bar or packet of crisps best believe im having it!. I tell myself nothing is off limits and mentally that had made me stronger because now I make choices based on a more realistic and sustainable mindset. I walk 15k steps plus gym most days but encourage people to find what activities they like and be consistent. Walking is a good base. Down 40lbs since February and still on it 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Diet is 80% key You’re absolutely right. I lost 77lbs in 30 days eating organic fruit and vegetables in smoothie format with lots of SeaMoss gel, along with a 16/8 intermittent fast. Oh and I was 254lbs to begin with. Genetics is no excuse
you're so very right. I've been an athlete and in the gym all my life but never changed my eating habits in the past. Intermit fasting and eating mostly protein, staying away from sugar, sodas etc. The weight just melted off and lost 40lbs in 3 months on a good diet only. I don't drink alcohol so that helps a lot too. Great advice.
I am over 60 and have lost weight before but I am finding it to be more difficult this time . I am going to try the intermittent fasting again along with keto which is basically how I eat anyway. If there is anything such as a natural supplement , you believe I should add to this journey ; I would love the advice.

I take injections, workout and intermittent fast. I am 46, pre-menopausal, hormonal weight gain and have insulin resistance. Don’t judge, every human body is not the same, do what works for you.
How are you doing on the injections! Congeata on making the choice to be healthier no matter what avenue! @@Make_it_Make_Scents

5 foot 9 male, 30 years, I was about 250 lbs, currently 177 lbs , lost about 83 lbs in about 6 months.
I have been trying to lose weight since 2016 and I now find what “works for me” and I am happy with it.
Thank you for the video. What you're saying is extremely true. You lose most of your weight through how much you eat compared to how much you use energy daily . I tried counting my calories making sure I eat the amount of food I need to lose weight. I tried Keto, I tried intermittent fasting. They all worked but I could not sustain it, and I could not keep the weight off.
What worked for me, keywords ‘worked for me’ is doing a physical activity I enjoyed the most without worrying about what I ate. I started playing Tennis about 3-4 times a week. Each session lasted for about 2-3 hours. I would play an actual ‘competitive’ match with 2-3 sets, (25-30 games).
I also started running 5K in the morning the days I didn't play tennis when I was in the mood to do so. I took 90 minutes when I start because I was walking 80% of the time. After 3 months I could finish in 38 minutes, my fastest lap so far. Week 1 run for 30 seconds and walk for 4 minutes. Week 12 run for 5 minutes walk for 2 minutes. (next goal is to run for for 15 minutes)
When it comes to food, I ate once a day. I found out its called OMAD (One Meal A Day) . I ate anything in that meal but I made sure I was eating enough, not too much or too little. After 2 weeks of starting the tennis I started finding it hard to eat a lot, so I started counting calories to make sure I eat at least 1800 calories. Most of my meals were home cooked meals like rice, beans, chicken beef stew, veggies and I would eat fast food like 2-3 times a week, chipotle, mcdonalds, Pizza.
Another thing I changed was making sure that what I drank did not have calories, Like water, coke zero fresca, black coffee, rooibos tea. For tea I would use Splenda. For me, drinking regular coca cola and coke zero is the same. So this works for me to just change to zero sugar drinks.
At some point through playing tennis too much and running I started having knee pain and other joint pains because Tennis and running is really hard on the joints. Did some research and I started going to the gym, 2-3 times a week, reduced running to twice a week instead of 4 times and playing tennis twice a week, only on the weekend. The weight training made my shoulders and knees feel strong on the tennis court, I didnt have pains after running or tennis sessions
Your energy metabolism is your BMR, the amount of calories your body burns just to stay alive everyday. Breathing, Heartbeat, using your eyes, ears, smell….basic body functionality. My BMR is about 1800 calories, You can increase or add on to this number manually by doing something everyday like walking for 30 minutes - an hour in the morning or at night listening to audio books. That's about 300 calories = 2100 calories total burned per day just by living and walking. Add other activities like 2 hours tennis, gym, running and thats another 800 calories on top daily average. = 2900 total. I ate between 1800 - 2500 calories daily and. Sometimes, maybe once or twice a week I would order a large 14 inch Pizza, Eat 3 slices in the afternoon and eat the rest at night watching my shows after my workouts. Some days I couldn't finish the whole thing, especially now im below 180 lbs I get full quicker than before.
Buy a kitchen scale and body scale, Eat the same way you eat every day, and find out how much you eat without dieting. record weight and how you feel about yourself everyday for 30 days, find out if you are gaining or losing. Increase or reduce calories accordingly. That is a good place to start.
Wierd things that works for me:
-Its easy for me to skip breakfast, it takes about 4-6 hours after waking up to feel hungry.
-Exercise or doing something physical curbs my appetite.
-Sitting on the computer all day or watching tv makes me veeeeery hungry.
-If I do a morning run, then sit on my computer, it takes about 6-8 hours to start feeling hungry
-If I eat what I don't like I will crave what I like and end up eating too much of what I like eventually.
-I eat my feelings, exercise releases stress and I just don't feel like eating as much.
-when my day job became my passion, I didn't think of food as much, had to set reminders to eat so that I don't faint or die.
Key Takeaways:
-weight loss is more sustainable when feel satisfied throughout the day
-Download myfitnesspal on your phone.
-log everything you eat.
-Experiment on your body, and take notes like a scientist.
-Try everything(Keto, Running, OMAD, Low Carb…) you think will work for at least 4 weeks.
-try out low calorie substitutes of food you love.
-Take notes, reflect, make changes, repeat.
-Stick to it once you find what works or what works and you are happy with it.
I was 260lbs this year in January & now in July, I am 195lbs which I lost the total of 65lbs . I did exercise & fasting with a nutrition plan that I follow do to my Pseudotumor Cerebri. I did a lot of discipline & consistency during my workouts plus I do yoga in between. 💪🏽🔥
Yesss🙌🏾🎊 Congratulations on your recent weight loss! Keep up the good work!
@@IannaYvonne thank you inspiration
I don't know how I ended up on this video and this comment, but I also have pseudotumor cerebri. It was the result of an MRI this past April. I don't have much information about it and everything online seems vague on how to treat it. The endocrinologist can't seem to help and didn't even address it until I brought it up from the neurologists notes. What diet are you following, if you don't mind me asking? Like, how are you being treated? I'm lost and and the medical professionals aren't helping 😭
I laughed so hard at this video and almost cried because every word you are describing is me. I need a MAJOR makeover, rewire and repair of my femininity. I have started healing from past pain of a major betrayal and I really want to be that loving kind feminine woman I once was but better.
Agree with your message. Lost 50lbs over a 11 month period at age 59, (yes can be done naturally post menopausal). Have kept the weight off for six years. Good advice!
I started intermittent fasting yesterday. And now I am seeing videos on intermittent fasting. This lets me know that I am on the right path.
let me know how it goes.
@healthyinformation I'm still currently intermittent fasting. It is not bad, but it has only been a week. I thought I wouldn't make it, but I am doing good. I am less hungry in the mornings, and the fasting has increased my water intake, which is a major plus. I want to slowly incorporate exercise but I am not there yet. Starting next week, I am going to incorporate stretching.
@@changes649 sound perfect then. Stretching is a great place to start that part
From what I've seen, isn't it just eating once a day every other day? 🤔
Or that the internet is listerning.
Thank you. I will hear you out because you have demonstrated success. Nothing is more annoying than hearing from someone who never had a weight issue lecture me about weight loss.
First of all, I love the straightforwardness in your video. I love that you address discipline and our belief system. I’m with you. I’m 5’3 237 lbs and looking to shed the excess fat. I literally don’t want it anymore and I believe I’m able to get it off. I’ve heard this a million times but hearing you say it and seeing your results did something for me.

Fasting is key !!!
I’m doing rolling fast, to get this baggage off ..Rolling 72’d, 84’s,& 90’s …don’t care what folks say, it works !!!
Can you explain further what you mean by Rolling Fasting. Never heard of the term? Do you not get super tired when you’re fasting? Unfortunately I get headaches if I’m super hungry and can’t concentrate.
SAME! I’m on Day 2. Good luck to you!
What is rolling fasting?
Ianna thanks for sharing. Please share how you do intermittent fasting.
So, 74,84, and 90 are the amount of days you fast for?
I started intermittent fasting and changed to a whole food plant based lifestyle and it’s been a game changer no cravings for sweets since I cut out refined carbs, sugar, and processed foods. No calorie counting, I’m full longer & I still eat good food but with medicinal properties. I was losing without exercise but I incorporated walking to keep the blood flowing and now starting strength training. I have so much more energy and I’m never going back just wish I would’ve done it sooner. The processes stuff has addictive components. Diets, moderation did not work for me but this I’m doing for life. Was diagnosed with T2D in June but not to the point of needing medication so I’m working on reversing it and never having that diagnosis again. 37lbs down
I know you have heard this before, but you reminded me so much of Rhiana. Great video! I just stumbled on this video.
Intermittent fasting is what is helping me a lot!! I already lost 16 lbs! For me is working, thanks to my primary doctor who recommended to me. I have been adding exercise little by little, 20 minutes per day, low impact. Going trough menopause is not an excuse. I will always say is depending of the Determination that you have to accomplish your goals in life. I was 212 and I am down to 196. My long term goal is 160 to 165. Thank you for sharing.

@linda-wil oz congrtz on your weightloss. Can i ask how many calories u eat in a day
It truly is a mindset shift. Thanks for this message
@@antoniaa.3760 thank you for watching
I work a job from 6pm-2:30 am. I walk at least 10000 steps a day at work. When I first started I lost a few lbs. But what really helped is starting to eat dinner before I get to work, which would end up being OMAD because the rest of the hrs I’m sleeping.
Even though I wasn’t eating a lot before, I never thought I’d be able to eat one meal a day.
Steep tea every day. Substitute sugar with raw honey for sweetener. If you want iced tea, steep it then chill it. It helps kickstart metabolism, replaces sodas and other sugary drinks, and gives the body a ton of antioxidants. You can see results in as little as six weeks if you drink one 16.9oz serving every day. Cheers.
Particularly GREEN Tea.
I'm glad you spoke about gaing muscle at 40+. I had no problem gaining muscle at all.
I love your living room. Is that center piece, real flowers? Wow beautiful 🤩
Wow!! You look amazing and did a great job.
Love out to everyone. This is one of the toughest transitions to a saner and healthier way of being. Two steps forward, one step back; everyday is a new day; This is not your fault; You can do it!!! Education and sanity.
A lot of Dr's dont know squat about weight loss, fitness, and nutrition. They hardly teach it in medical school, and its the same antiquated info. There're lots of women in their 40s, 50s, 60s and 70+ transforming their body and building muscles with strength training
They would lose a lot of customers/$$$ if they told us how to not be obese!!!
True!
Yup… you can lose weight and get toned at any age. Also if you were an athlete in some form a fashion decades ago your body has muscle memory and will look great again. Start slow and build up.
Great video, I just turned 40 last month and I am starting to incorporate strength training and ADF back into my lifestyle. This pooch has got to GOOOOOOOOOO
Very well spoken you have a very calming voice
Being healthy is more about maintaining mental and emotional health.
Exercising helps with confidence.
Give you reward signals in the brain.
Teaches you discipline and consistency.
Believe in yourself and know you are RESPONSIBLE for your health ✨️
I Intermittent fast as well, and I really do think that helps and I also do a month without sugar or two weeks without sugar sometimes 2 months without sugar 🦋😘. Thank you 😊
I'm so thrilled to see that you've conquered your mountain! I’m on a similar journey and it’s been quite a ride. I started my weight loss regime in April 2024, weighing 521 lbs, and thanks to staying consistent with my diet and routine, I’m now down to 430 lbs as of October 2024. I still have a way to go to get it done. I feel more motivated than ever. My doctor prescribed me Ozempic, and it's been a game-changer for me. I've been so inspired by my progress that I've written an ebook on How to Lose Weight Safely While Taking Ozempic. Your video has confirmed that I’m on the right track, and I truly appreciate that! STAY STRONG SIS!!!!
This is so true! Believing it first is key. Also, loving my body at every stage helped a ton. Next thing you know the weight just started melting off.
This was a great video! I just started intermittent fasting. I eat only between the hours of 11a to 7p and I'm trying to lose 40lbs. So, I'm hoping that I can get this weight off naturally. Thank you for your insight. ❤
I am 38 and looking forward to looking fine at 40 like you sis ❤
I did not loose weight on Keto. I was shocked. I've been IF-ing before it was a thing to do. I was never hungry in the morning, so I didn't eat breakfast. I'm actually in the process of losing weight that I put on due to my PTSD and even though my BMI is Obese, due to IF my labs are pristine. I have chosen light Pilates and stretching and So far I'm 28 pounds down. I don't really stay off my cravings, but I try to see if there is a healthier option. If not then I remind myself on what is my why. That's been helpful for me.
That is awesome. Did you start your light Pilates at home or do you take in person classes /groups.
@@Cantetinza17 congrats on your Weightloss!! Wow 28 pound down is amazing ❤️🎉💪🏾
Did you do strict clean keto though? Products that say keto on them dont always help you, and if you have way too much fat like dairy, that’s a lot of calories to consume.You won’t lose weight with keto if you’d fill eat more calories than you burn
@ROXELL I did do strict Keto. For exercise, I was doing 21 Day Fix from Beach Body. It just didn't work for me. 🤷🏾♀️
@@Cantetinza17 I did 21 day fix and I lost weight with that, but 21 day fix isn’t keto, they allow 1 cup or more of carbs per day
Thanks so much for this video! Also, you are incredibly stunning ☺️
I have been intermittent fasting before it became a thing.
Have never been overweight
Obviously one doesn’t need to exercise to lose weight , but some sort of exercise routine is useful.
Fast paced walking ,some strength work and some simple stretching exercises
If you want a tight body try Callanetics
Omg - I just suggested to my Auntie about pairing her snacks with her meals. As a person who has suffered from insulin resistance I’ve been on a rabbit hole of information from various sources for the past 30-45 days - I finally put my theory to the test starting 7/11/24 at 299 lbs now 7/28 at 286 lbs. I pay attention to my macros, walk for 30 mins to an hour 3x per week and IF. I feel great and so ready to keep pushing towards my goal of HEAL(THY) . Healing thy self !!! 🎉
Yessss 💪🏾🙌🏾🎊 Congratulations on your recent Weightloss and the start of your new healthy era. Look like you’re doing everything right! Keep up the good work and feel free to reach out if you have any questions along the way. Happy to help if I can. You got this! ❤️
Hello… What’s your eating window?
The physical activity (weights) is so that you make your body stronger. You’ll feel better.
Eating less calories than what you burn will add to weight loss.
Seek medical advice before intermittent fasting and one meal a day. For some… this could mess you up. For many it’s fine. Best to be sure.
Balance in meals is important. This lady is correct. Blood sugar spikes can be managed by the foods you combine when you eat. There are cgm blood glucose monitors out there that help you keep track of what spikes your blood glucose. If you can get a cgm… do it.
The journey can be intimidating… but can be done.
Edit: Nov 2023 - Today: 44 lbs lost. I’m 57 years old. Was skinny most of my life. Gained weight during Covid… so glad to have it off of me!
Good luck everyone and may God Bless us All!
I agree with you 80-90 percent of fitness is what you put in your mouth and how much of it. With that said, I completely recommend some form of strength training training(weight lifting or resistance bands) along with cardio. There is such a thing as “skinny fat”. When someone loses a significant amount of wait but they don’t look healthy and they don’t have any muscle tone. Strength training is beneficial in so many ways. Strengthening not only your muscles but your bones as well. Adding more lean muscle to your body helps slow down the aging process. Weight lifting boost metabolism, lowers the risk of cardiovascular disease, balances blood sugar levels, boost mood, strengthens bones, lowers blood pressure, improves sleep, burns fat, improves posture, etc. the list goes on. At 45 I went back to the gym and at 52 I have more muscle than I ever did in my twenties.
Thanks so much for watching! You are absolutely correct. I discuss many of these exact points in another video I have called “ lose weight and keep it off for good”. Strength training is the fountain of youth!! I typically recommend starting a fitness journey with low intensity steady state cardio so that cortisol levels don’t shoot up. Also most people who are overweight likely need to improve their cardiovascular health. However progressing to incorporate weight training, even a few days a week, is a must!
Thank you I love this video! I appreciate that you got STRAIGHT to it🎉
Omgggg you and your story is ME!!!! Accept I'm a little younger and ashamed that I'm here so young 😭😭😭...SO happy I found you!!!!
She is telling you the truth fasting is it! It is all about changing how you look at the food you are putting in the body once you get your mental right, discipline your thoughts and take your time there is no right or wrong way to fast find what works for u and your body type be bless💯💯🤞🤞🙌🙌
💯 Truth l am currently on weight loss medication and been on the lowest dose. I am getting off of it soon cause it actually my diet. So far I have been eating healthy and completely cut out all junk food that I ate.

You can do it. Start by not changing how you eat. But instead only eating within a certain time frame:)
Great short video😊! Thank you, finely my insurance approved me for Wegovy, unfortunately it’s not available at the pharmacy. I have to wait until it’s available. I’m 5ft 4inches tall, 236lbs, I’m obese. I will use this prescription as a stepping stone, to start my weightloss, as I continue to change my lifestyle. Thank you for sharing the products. I just started reading about the benefits of glucoman
These are some great insights! I just started incorporating weights in to my workout because I saw how much of my weight was far. 😩 I’m hopeful I can shift my body weight composition as I’m in my 50s and know as I age more it will get worse.
Yes intermittent fasting for the Win!! Eating better, healthier this is the path to a bettee and healthier body, mind, etc. Great tips, thanks!!
I’m looking forward to reversing this brand new diagnosis of Prediabetes. I’ve been caregiving for several years and it has caught up to me in the form of being off my perfect regimen…now I am a victim of grab and go. I detected some nerve symptoms and asked for a test. Boom. I’m now freaking out but working hard
Great journey and accomplishment! Well done!
Thank you for giving tips on this! I was doing personal training and found out I have an issue with discs in my neck. I lost a lot of my progress getting stuck in my head about this new diagnosis and realized while I started feeling better by working out, I wasn’t losing any significant amount of weight. I fasted yesterday over 24 hrs and proved I could do it. I will continue implementing fasting in my routine 💖.
I just started my journey so glad I came across this video

Ianna, lady you look fantastic!
Been thinking about keto just because it goes against what heart doctors used to recommend about too much saturated fats.
So, over the long term, it may not be that healthy.
It just never sat well with me.
IF does and I have heard a resounding chorus of advice from fit people, "abs are made in the kitchen" like +80% just like you said.
Thank you.

The Doctor was absolutely WRONG about gaining muscle at 40 or after. There are people who don’t even start their physical health journey until their 40s.
This is the best common sense, straight forward video I have seen in awhile.
I would also just recommend to anyone who wants to lose weight but also get toned to
1.) put focus on the kitchen
2.) add some level of consistent cardio that’s fun to you. (Dance, swim, wearing a Fitbit and walking at work)
3.) Strength train twice a week only to start. That can be increased over time.
Love how you just got to the point
You are looking good! Thanks for all the info.
@@SuperFilicia thank you for watching !
Your right. I started walking 3.6 miles a day and jogged about 40 seconds 5 times within that walked. My knee went bad. Now I'm back walking

Absolutely agree with you. Doing intermittent fasting is been the ONLY thing that actually works for me ive lost 23lbs in 2 1/2 months and counting for the first time and NOT gained it back when i stopped for a month to see if i will do a regain of weight. Never happened and i ate pretty much everything. Also first time i also shred FAT not water weight. Omad is when i lost the most. I recently discovered my first long fast of 5 days on only water.. i wanted to do 7 but i didn’t prepared enough and felt weak by the 5th day and break it. But just in 5 days i lost 10 pounds. ❤ this is absolutely amazing.
you can develop muscle at any age ! get rid of all myths.. and tailor a program for yourself.
Great Content.. take one day at a time ! intermittent fasting is a game changer..
You just made me subscribe to you. I like the way you think! Please do more I'm in my health journey, getting serious about. I have to save myself. I rebuke this nonsense that over 40 can't drop the weight and be healthy!
TW: ED... .
I agree with its how you're eating primarily. I remember when inwas doing all this activity but still eating the same dont get me wrong i felt a bit fitter and lost a few lbs with activity alone.
However, what i know now is diet is most important and you may not have to do so much activity just to offset what you've eaten.
I can't do OMAD or extended fasting periods some may be able to relate due to binge eating/restrictive eating patterns and prolonged fasting triggers this because i feel like i need to overcompensate after. I find being more flexible with what I eat not being too restrictive but tracking protein as a priority encouraged me t fill up with satiating foods first. And dont eat fast food any more i could but it dont taste the same. Meal orep helps too ease the pressure and time after work but again not too strict with it but i eat what i prepared 9 times out of 10. I still snack but try to vhoose lower calorie, more nutrient dense snacks first such as pop corn low fat yoghurt pumpkin seeds fruit dark chocolate. So if there's some days in thebweek i want a chocolate bar or packet of crisps best believe im having it!.
I tell myself nothing is off limits and mentally that had made me stronger because now I make choices based on a more realistic and sustainable mindset. I walk 15k steps plus gym most days but encourage people to find what activities they like and be consistent. Walking is a good base. Down 40lbs since February and still on it 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Diet is 80% key You’re absolutely right. I lost 77lbs in 30 days eating organic fruit and vegetables in smoothie format with lots of SeaMoss gel, along with a 16/8 intermittent fast.
Oh and I was 254lbs to begin with. Genetics is no excuse
Are you a man, bc that would never work for a woman. Also how tall are you, bc that plays a very big part in weight loss.
