For many with gut inflammation green veggies are are huge no no. Green veggies of all types were my absolute favorite food but I no longer can consume greens as no tomatoes 100%. All what used to be a favorite snack. So know your gut does and don't do.
Great video! My best tips… lost 45 lbs and have kept it off for 7 years. 1. Sautee veggies with water, and skip all oils. 2. First meal of the day is protein. Break every fast with protein. 3. Watch the condiments… lots of calories sneak in and sugar. Instead try new spices! Yum!
63 years old and I just found you on RUclips. You are amazing! I love the supermarket videos. You are beautiful and your willingness to help the public is so appreciated! Thanks for being you! Beginning my journey today, because, of you!
I started low carb, no sugar, low calorie yesterday. And Intermittent fasting, I last did this 5 years ago and lost almost 30 pounds. So lets see how this goes. Its just to get into the groove of things since my husband is deployed I want to surprise him when he gets back 😂
Nice. Hope it's going well Same here. Lost 30 and kept it off for 3 years. Had a bad concussion,meds and gained a bunch. I'm losing it . I'm determined. Good luck.
I did this 3 yrs ago except the IF & lost almost 40 lbs & this yr I gained it back plus a little more🤬I’m about to start it over tho 🤞🤞🤞Good luck girl & thanks to ur husband for serving our country 🇺🇸❤💙
For the people that want that beef taste in things, I’ve found that you can actually fry a small amount of hamburger in the same pan with ground turkey and the turkey will end up tasting more like the beef. So if you can’t give up beef completely, you can still cut the amount in the recipe by switching at least half of the ground beef called for to turkey. Just cook it all together and you get a more uniform beefy flavor but with half of that meat content and calories trimmed significantly down with the addition of ground turkey. It really does work. My husband would say hell no to turkey chili on its own, but he didn’t even realize the switch when I added turkey cooked with beef to the pot. It barely registers as different when you do that. Bonus-turkey is less expensive than beef. So win for the waistline AND the bank account-especially when feeding a family with multiple kids in it so you need more of everything.
Back on low-carb lifestyle, clean eating after binging mostly on sugar for 5 months from restricted diet previously I did get my A1C down to 5.4 and inflammation gone. I did lose 100 lb and now gained 13lbs. Thank you Mayra for all your great recipes I'm definitely going to incorporate a lot of your recipes so I can stay on track and hopefully don't overeat all those delicious foods you make.😊
I'm currently in a program that is helping me to lose weight! Everything you said is what I've been learning from them, and you are right! You kept saying "be mindful" is absolutely correct! I'm glad I found you, thanks! Take care!
Hi. I'm new and so thankful. I agree with you about your advice , actively changed my diet due to dangerous high diabetes. Changed my numbers on my own day one that I decided to do zeo- low carb no sugar diet. Added leafy greens high fiber, nuts, seeds, little bit of berries. *apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and cayanne pepper water drink was key for me. Started 2 mos ago and changed numbers from high 200 fasting morn. to 80- 110 straight for 2 mos ( well had to high days due to leaning what triggers my sugar spikes). Must mention I've worked out everyday too. Incorporated brisk walking, light crossfit 15-20 min. and stretching. I appreciate you and God bless you. Health peace and joy to you. God gave me discipline and strong will to not give in ❤ . Praying for all and may we all be illness free.
Girl I was 305 almost 17yrs ago. I yo-yod back and forth for like 9 yrs after that until I figured out how to eat right through Herbalife Nutrition and having a coach through social media to follow up with once a week. I was also involved with a chat they provided where there were several of us trying to lose weight together!! I lost down to 137lbs!! Then I fell off track and slowly fell back into my bad habits. Now after all the hard work, I am up to 156lbs. So I’ve gained almost 20lbs back and I’m struggling!! So I’m glad I found your channel!! Hopefully I can get back on track and get this back under control before I really mess up!! I am now in Perry menopause and so that makes it that much harder to lose and keep off, but I know with the Lord helping me and also following your channel and advice, hopefully I can get back into the right mindset and stay there!! Thank you for making these videos!! I thought I would not ever have a problem again, but here I am lol! I know I can do it again!! 🙏🏽✝️🤗❤️
@@Laura-xy7td thank you so much for this advice!! There have been a few other people recommend me do the same. I don’t have a gynecologist right now because I don’t have health insurance, but come November we should be able to get some hopefully.🙏🏽 Hope you have a blessed day and thx again. 🤗
I’m so so happy I found your channel!!! I just started my weight loss journey I’ve got about 80lbs to lose and my husband is joining me and with him being Mexican your recipes are everything!!!!! ❤ thank you
Great video! Love your content. I am a meat eater, but for anyone who is not, still get that protein in with beans, and lentils which contain high amounts of protein. You can also find protein in nuts, whole grains like quinoa and amaranth, and hemp seeds. ❤
@@sw9868 You're exactly right. Fascinating the body chemistry for each person. Wishing you great health and hope you are knocking your goals out of the park! Be well friend.
Great tips thank you. Small tip for people who are prone to or have had kidney stones - stay away from spinach. Google high oxalate foods. While most foods have them, spinach is through the roof. Good to know.
When choosing a sweetener, choose one without maltodextrin! It is a base made from corn, and it adds 1/3 to 1/2 of a carb to each teaspoon. It WILL add up. Liquid sweeteners do not have this, and neither does powdered erythritol or allulose.
Thanks for the tips! I have to say that I thought to lose weight, I had to go plant based and stay away from meats. I was also doing weight watchers and the fruits and veggies were zero points. I hired a nutrition and fitness coach and boy was I wrong. You are absolutely right that we need protein to lose weight and the nutritionist stresses it should come from animals and not plants. He also states fruits and vegetables are not to be consumed “unlimited” as you mentioned, fruits have sugar, which is ok, but not in abundance. Thanks for sharing your tips and what worked for you! ❤
I appreciate your comment so much!! The VEGANS have been coming after me because this is exactly what I experienced!! I went vegan a few years ago and my weight and blood sugar skyrocketed. All the grains and fruit (carbs) were not good for MY BODY. I finally switched to a high protein, low carb diet and I immediately lost the extra pounds and my blood sugar normalized. And yes... high quality animal protein is the best bioavailable protein for the body! I had to eat so many beans, soy, etc to feel satiated when I was vegan. Now just 4 oz of chicken or fish is so satisfying. I feel and look great!
@@sw9868 I apologize for the late reply. I’m so glad that you are doing better and that you lost the extra weight. That’s awesome! 👏 One of the things I told my coach was there is so much misinformation out there to where I felt like the vegetarians say don’t eat meat and you’ll live longer, then the keto group says meat fixed their health issues. I needed someone to help me sort the BS. I am a cancer survivor and I was led to believe that plant based was the only way to go. I found out that wasn’t true. I am learning to add in lean meat to get my protein but I also try to make sure the meat is grass fed and grass finished and turkey or chicken without antibiotics or hormones. I do think that one diet may not work for everyone and to each their own.😉 Good luck to you!
My sister is about 100lbs overweight. She just started joining me In the gym and I’m cleaning up her diet. Hoping a year from now she’ll make a commitment to being healthy
When it comes to fruit (type2 diabetic here) i would look for the glycemic index for fruit. And or any other type food. I stick to strawberries and blueberries.
I just love love love your videos. You truly have a heart for us, you truly want to help us and share everything you know. And like someone else said, you don’t just ramble on you get to the point. I applaud you and thank you very much for all you do! YOU ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLES LIVES!
Hi Mayra. Your channel came up as a suggestion a couple of days ago and I'm loving it already! I class myself as someone who knows and understands food but lately I just feel stuck and feel the need to start again and go back to basics. Thank you for this video!
Hi!! I was doing low carb keto for a little over a month and lost so much inflammation and actually felt lighter. Fast forward another month I started craving carbs and sugar again and gained so much weight back and I’m swollen again. I hate how I fell off. Love this video for inspiration
I understand. I did so well last fall ... Plateaued for summer ... Now totally fell off the wagon. Starting again, I know I felt so much better, more confident, happier in my clothes.
Loved this video.. and all of them truly…thank you so much for all the help and advice you give.. It is so helpful.. I also love my veggies but love sugar too.. my go to is stevia and ALLULOSE.. it’s too hard NOT to have any sweeteners. Thank you again and many blessings to you..
Thank you. This was my first time . I am starting this journey for my high functioning special needs 18 year old son. He is 341 pounds. We are starting a detox , move into the cabbage soup diet, then golo with all the healthy recipes. I would like him to do his weight loss journey via RUclips, and he wants to as well. Right now, we are starting this journey one day at a time. I'll be watching more.
These videos are soooo fabulous Myra. Why do I feel like we’re catching you on the way up sister? Some news station is going to scoop you up soon. You are so good at this!
I love your videos. I can't believe how wonderful you look and you still make great desserts. Awesome videos and your tips and encouragement help us guys too. 25 lbs to go for me to my goal weight. Thanks
All mentioned was just describing the ketogenic diet.. only thing she forgot to mention (unless i missed it) was her mentioning flour.. im 5 years keto & shes describing how I lost i losr 100 lbs. Myself. Ditch regular flour for Almond or coconut flour & following her advice will definitely work. 👍
I have been following you for almost a year. Love all the food guidances and advice you always give us. I gut and my health has improve so much by you sharing your knowledge and your testimony of your weight loss journey. Muchas gracias =)
Thank you!!! I like stevia in the raw. My body can't tolerate anything but avocado oil. I even bake with avocado oil. I try not to buy anything processed, it's hard but I try my best. I love meat. I'm down 12 pounds just by making small changes and I feel so much better eliminating the American Standard Diet.
Great tips. My go-to is erythritol with Monkfruit. I don’t get any cooling with this blend. Stevia alone has a bad aftertaste to me. I spent the last few months experimenting with what sweetener works for me.
Omg period week is crazy. Especially a few days before it starts. I crave carbs. I crave chocolate. Soda. Chips. Who has time to bake a potato? 😂 Ever since i started my health journey i am mindful of what and how much i eat junk when im on my period. For example today i had stew and it had potatoes in it and i ate it with bread. 🥖 that long french bread. A few tiny slices. But that was it. I knew I should not eat anymore bread today. Can you make a video on whats ok to eat on your period? If i want chips which bag is healthy? I recently bought a bag of chips that has that eagle on it. The lime flavor is amazing.
Thanks for mentioning that part about our bodies needing some healthy carbs like a week before our period. This explains why i always fall off the wagon every time during that time of the month. Wow! Im so happy. I'm literally starting again in two hrs
Great points! The only thing I would question have to do with the veggies. Spinach is high oxalate and in large amounts can cause kidney stones among other problems. Broccoli has anti-nutrients that can damage the thyroid.
The key thing with green veg is be careful if on warfarin. Vitamin K reverses it. You can eat spinach and broccoli with no side effects unless you’re talking huge quantities.
❤Thank you so much! 1.5 months ago I started Mounjaro, My body had a reaction to it, so had to quit! So now it’s just me and you are teaching what I need to know! So thank you for that!
Keto in a nutshell. But really good to hear. ❤ needed this. Was doing for a while and stopped. Really want to get back to it. So thank you for popping on my feed
I agree about the sweetener substitute. We've been using Stevie for many years, and it really does make a difference ... it does not cause the pancreas to pump out insulin like sugar, syrup, and corn syrup do.
Fats from meats are not nearly an issue... it's the inflammatory oils, sugars and frequent snacking/eating that seems to work against your weight loss maintenence. Good video
My niece's son just turned 10 years old last week, and my sisters his mom and myself went to a soul food restaurant, the food is so good. my frist dish was a salad, it was so delicious and good. They had had so many flavors of arugula, and black olives, dice apples, dice tomatoes, every thing. and my second dinner was grill shrimp and broccoli with a sauce.
I switched to avocado oil since watching you. 😊 Also i can NOT stand extra virgin olive oil on salads. It’s way too strong tasting. No way. I still use extra virgin olive oil when cooking but since i started avocado oil i cook fry with it more. You can NOT taste the avocado.
Hi Mayra, Love your videos. Thank you for sharing your experience with Low Carb & Keto. I did Keto and lost weight but gained it back. Time to get back on the wagon. I noticed you're not wearing your engagement ring, I hope all is well with you.
I think different people’s bodies/weight loss respond differently to different diets. I eat mostly WFPB-no-SOS (salt, oil, sugar). When I focused on animal protein, I could not lose weight. I now eat meat only twice a week…not two days a week, two times. I have no joint pain. Sleep better. Etc. That’s what works for my body. I very, very rarely eat anything processed, other than organic almond milk. Oh, and I eat natural carbs, like those mentioned in the Starch Based Solution diets, but limit them to one a day…which are the veggies you mention (sweet potato, for example). I eat limited fruit EXCEPT for berries. Have lost an entire person. 😃
Myra you look great. It is great that you are in maintenance mode. For those who are in weight loss mode can you share how you ate. Did you eat differently then than you do now?
you could look into intermittent fasting. it cure me of snacking, cravings and crazy yo yo dieting. i’ve been doing it for 8 years and can’t even think of NOT doing it. i started out with 8 hours of eating but now i do 2 meals in 4 or 5 hours with no problem. i don’t get hungry & i don’t have cravings any more.
This is what I have been doing for the last 3 months but I needed the tips on oil. I use olive oil too much. Avocado with the higher smoke point would be better. I lost 20lb in 3 months.
I'm Veggie from childhood and there's no way I could change ,so I ned to know alternative ways of getting protein . Also i'm insulin resistant , border line Type 2 Diabetes desperately trying to get rid of lower belly fat but nothing is working . Your videos have captured mt attention simply because you managed to slim yourself . 🙂
Fruit and potatoes are my favorites but you are right about the sugar effect. And honestly my body knows the sugar effect and it can cause me to go crazy on fruits like bananas I could eat so many bananas 😆 It’s like natures pudding dessert
Mayra, thanks for the good tips. Ive been watxhijg you for years now and just love your tips and sharing wigh us your weight loss Journey. Im on my journey as well. 😊😊😊😊
In 7 months I went from 245 pounds to 212 pounds. I know it’s not much, but I am loving the journey and progress I have made.
It is much! It's awesome, good for you!!!
That’s 33 lbs. That’s ALOT . Let’s go 49ers 😊
Wow you are doing an amazing job keep going ❤❤❤
Wow that is a lot. Congratulations keep the momentum
Are you kidding! At least I would like to lose 5 pounds and it has been tough!
1- Cut the sugar ( find a substitute)
2- oils : use EV olive oil , avocado oil , coconut 🥥 oil
(take a pre and probiotic daily )
3 protein protein protein
4 green vegetables 🥦!
5- still have fruit , opt for lower sugar eg raspberries, don’t go over board

i love carnivore better so no oil and no veggies and no fruit except for very little tomato and guacamole

I usually hate these videos because people ramble way too much. You got right to the point great video thank you
Yes, I love how you get right to the point!! Great videos!!

That's an excellent idea !!! Thanks for the info!! I am trying to lose my belly from menopause UUGGHHH So aggravating

Great tips. My go-to is erythritol with Monkfruit. I don’t get any cooling with this blend. Stevia alone has a bad aftertaste to me. I spent the last few months experimenting with what sweetener works for me.
Thank you so much most keto people just eat meat and I HAVE to have veggies in my diet I crave them! l lOVE your help!
Thanks for all the great tips!! I'm ready to start this journey tomorrow!!
This is a great video, Mayra. Thanks for the info.☺️👏♥️
❤❤
Very helpful and practical information! Thank you!
The right amount of steak is important… if you don’t eat more than 6 ounces… you should be ok. The problem is people eat a portion that is too high.
Omg period week is crazy. Especially a few days before it starts. I crave carbs.
I crave chocolate. Soda. Chips.
Who has time to bake a potato? 😂
Ever since i started my health journey i am mindful of what and how much i eat junk when im on my period.
For example today i had stew and it had potatoes in it and i ate it with bread. 🥖 that long french bread. A few tiny slices.
But that was it. I knew I should not eat anymore bread today.
Can you make a video on whats ok to eat on your period?
If i want chips which bag is healthy?
I recently bought a bag of chips that has that eagle on it. The lime flavor is amazing.
Everything. In. MODERATION.
I had wls but find your videos and recipes so helpful. Thank you!
Thanks for mentioning that part about our bodies needing some healthy carbs like a week before our period. This explains why i always fall off the wagon every time during that time of the month. Wow! Im so happy. I'm literally starting again in two hrs
I just starting following you and so far I've made 2 of your recipes... im loving it
*Thanks for the invaluable guidance!*
Great points! The only thing I would question have to do with the veggies. Spinach is high oxalate and in large amounts can cause kidney stones among other problems. Broccoli has anti-nutrients that can damage the thyroid.
😮😂😮😮😮😢
The key thing with green veg is be careful if on warfarin. Vitamin K reverses it. You can eat spinach and broccoli with no side effects unless you’re talking huge quantities.
I'm down 30 pounds eating pretty much like this. And I absolutely love my fruits and vegetables so much to.
❤Thank you so much! 1.5 months ago I started Mounjaro, My body had a reaction to it, so had to quit! So now it’s just me and you are teaching what I need to know! So thank you for that!
Yes
Very helpful, you are so right about the oils.
Thank you for this! Valuable advice!
Thank you so much for you videos please make more videos and prep meals ❤
Keto in a nutshell. But really good to hear. ❤ needed this. Was doing for a while and stopped. Really want to get back to it. So thank you for popping on my feed
Thank you so much for this 😭❤️🙏 I appreciate it. So simple and so important!!!
I love all of your tips. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Olive oil and avocado from Costco are legit and great prices
They really are. That’s where I usually get them 🙌🏼
Hello from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Can you please show the quantities you eat ?
Very helpful. You are so right about the oil triggering inflammation....
I agree about the sweetener substitute. We've been using Stevie for many years, and it really does make a difference ... it does not cause the pancreas to pump out insulin like sugar, syrup, and corn syrup do.
I just ordered my Seed, thanks for the recommendation and discount price.
❤❤❤Love your channel. This was a great video. Great tios.
Fats from meats are not nearly an issue... it's the inflammatory oils, sugars and frequent snacking/eating that seems to work against your weight loss maintenence. Good video
The worst foods are fried foods and sweets and tons of bad bread.
Love your videos! Thanks for posting!❤
My niece's son just turned 10 years old last week, and my sisters his mom and myself went to a soul food restaurant, the food is so good. my frist dish was a salad, it was so delicious and good. They had had so many flavors of arugula, and black olives, dice apples, dice tomatoes, every thing. and my second dinner was grill shrimp and broccoli with a sauce.
I switched to avocado oil since watching you. 😊
Also i can NOT stand extra virgin olive oil on salads. It’s way too strong tasting. No way.
I still use extra virgin olive oil when cooking but since i started avocado oil i cook fry with it more.
You can NOT taste the avocado.
Some olive oils are very strong, some very mild. I like the Organic OO at Trader Joe's, it's very mild
Thank you Mayra! I value your tips for weight loss!
Hi Mayra, Love your videos. Thank you for sharing your experience with Low Carb & Keto. I did Keto and lost weight but gained it back. Time to get back on the wagon. I noticed you're not wearing your engagement ring, I hope all is well with you.
I use Stevia, like it better than sugar, and I use Olive Oil!!!! Im trying to lose weight as well :) thanks for the tips!!!
This video was so helpful! What about butter? I cook with more butter than I do oil.
Excellent tips…..thank you ….yes on the grapes 🍇
I think different people’s bodies/weight loss respond differently to different diets. I eat mostly WFPB-no-SOS (salt, oil, sugar). When I focused on animal protein, I could not lose weight. I now eat meat only twice a week…not two days a week, two times. I have no joint pain. Sleep better. Etc. That’s what works for my body. I very, very rarely eat anything processed, other than organic almond milk. Oh, and I eat natural carbs, like those mentioned in the Starch Based Solution diets, but limit them to one a day…which are the veggies you mention (sweet potato, for example). I eat limited fruit EXCEPT for berries. Have lost an entire person. 😃
You have a much better and larger keto range than the UK xxx
Terrific! This video is perfect start! Use this pick your flavors and develop your beginning! Yay!!! I do too!
For snacks, I started making apple chips with cinnamonjust for a treat instead of eating chips but in moderation as well of course
For sweetener, I think she was referring to allulose, not “alilo” as shown in the transcript.
Thank you for all your advice on this new journey. God Bless You and Your Family💞💪🙏
Myra you look great. It is great that you are in maintenance mode. For those who are in weight loss mode can you share how you ate. Did you eat differently then than you do now?
Mayra, thank you for all these tips. What kills me is the snacking.
you could look into intermittent fasting. it cure me of snacking, cravings and crazy yo yo dieting. i’ve been doing it for 8 years and can’t even think of NOT doing it. i started out with 8 hours of eating but now i do 2 meals in 4 or 5 hours with no problem. i don’t get hungry & i don’t have cravings any more.
Olive oil has been used for years and is good for your health. That's all they use in Italy. And I grew up with it
This is what I have been doing for the last 3 months but I needed the tips on oil. I use olive oil too much. Avocado with the higher smoke point would be better. I lost 20lb in 3 months.
Wow, good for you..
Very informative! Thank you for the information. Very helpful!!
❤❤❤❤ Your videos are incredibly interesting and I have learn so much. Thank you.
I'm Veggie from childhood and there's no way I could change ,so I ned to know alternative ways of getting protein . Also i'm insulin resistant , border line Type 2 Diabetes desperately trying to get rid of lower belly fat but nothing is working . Your videos have captured mt attention simply because you managed to slim yourself . 🙂
Fruit and potatoes are my favorites but you are right about the sugar effect. And honestly my body knows the sugar effect and it can cause me to go crazy on fruits like bananas I could eat so many bananas 😆
It’s like natures pudding dessert
Avocado oil is GREAT for baking too!!!
One thing I have to have is my tacos. 🌮🌮🌮. In cutting out the bad oils, would the avocado oil be the oil of choice for frying corn tortillas?
Struggling with yoyo ... Back up to what I was a year and a half ago despite exercise. Starting again now.
Thank you
I love Stevia as my sweetener. I prefer to buy organic stevia. The only oil I have in my house is Olive oil and sesame oil.
Mayra, thanks for the good tips. Ive been watxhijg you for years now and just love your tips and sharing wigh us your weight loss Journey. Im on my journey as well. 😊😊😊😊
