Burak - 35!! Such a baby!! You're barely an adult, lol. You seem to have such a warm and upbeat spirit! It's so wonderful to see the progress you've made. Keep up the great work!!
Two summers ago I spent 6 weeks in Turkey. I ate anything I wanted. At the time I didn't know I was type 2 diabetic. I lost 10 lbs and never felt better. Later I discovered that my weight loss was due to not getting any insulin. I think I felt so good because my diet was so low in sugar. By the way Turkish food is so good particularly away from the big cities.
I love you guys! I sometimes watch your show not to learn new recipe, but just to enjoy your energy. There is soooo much happiness, it's hard not to smile when going thru the episode - and I'm very grateful for that. Congrats Burak! Thank you for inspiration!
Congratulations. Loosing weight is a project. Since I started preparing Refika's recipes it is working for me. I am diabetic type 2. One of my favorite is the lentil salad and ,vegetarian, protein recipes and the refreshing drinks. I was bored drinking water but her refreshing drinks. My friends asked my where do I buy these drinks and I give them your website and they love her recipes and yes I am loosing weight. My exercise is ballroom dancing and belly dance. Thank you and I love you all.
Wow! So so proud of you Burak!! 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for sharing, it helps all of us so much! We are cheering you on! 👏🏼👏🏼 I too am trying to loose weight, I am now at 8.3 kg lost and doing it eating lots of Mediterranean/Middle eastern foods I love so much, internment fasting, no sugars and this channel has helped with as I have used SO many of the recipes here to help me! So HUGE thanks to you all. Much love!! Keep going strong! We are all here for each other!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I am absolutely all about cutting yourself a slack and not being too strickt. Hormonal balances are super important when keeping one’s weight. I am not too much of a sportive person but am always slender because: intermittent fasting and hormonal harmony:) sending you my super best wishes 🫶
YAY, Burak!! Congratulations🥳; you look AMAZING! If you can find 30 minutes 5x/week to walk, so can I, and I will. You guys (the entire team) bring joy to my heart! I pray your days and lives will be filled with the same joy you bring to us, and I'm sending lots of LOVE💝
Good for you and your health-you look great and happy! Keep it up and keep posting-very encouraging! I've been to Turkey 5 times and always lose weight due to walking. And love the food your channel is showing
Congratulations Burak for reaching your goal! Making lasting changes for better health is always a great thing. And congratulations on your new fur baby 🐕❤ I'd say that is one of the best accountabilities not only for walking but for all they joy they can bring! Keep us posted on your progress, you may have just inspired someone else to start their journey.
@Refika love your channel. I'm pre diabetic. I can't have anything with white flour or too high in carbohydrates. I have switched to eating Turkish and Mediterranean food. I use your recipe for Lentil bread which is my life saver. Lentils help to lower blood sugar. I have almost got rid of my pre diabetes and have lost 42 pounds so far. Thank you ❤
As if we don't get "enough" from you guys. Thank you. A world away, my love of cooking from different cultures, combined with all that you guys do, helped the woman I was talking to, from Turkey in a strange land, feel at home.
Congratulations on your weight loss! You must feel so fantastic. I accidentally lost 12kg by introducing my children to their cultural foods. Not dieting, just eating real foods and enjoying ourselves. Between the grandparents we have Sicilian, Turkish and Lebanese. Your channel has been a huge help, love your recipes! The flavours are just mwah 🤌 so delicious.
well done Burak! I'd would find it harder dieting in Turkey as you see and smell delicious foods whatever you go but Istanbul is a wonderful city for walking I used to walk for hours at weekends when I lived there many years ago !
What a FABULOUS channel episode! It was so enjoyable to watch and listen... and learn. Thanks, Burak, Refika, and team. Good luck, Burak! Greetings from Cape Town! Colin.
That weight loss is wonderful, congratulations. I am 65 and I have had struggled with my weight as well. One thing that helps me and may help you is putting a small salad of mostly lettuces in a small bowl with a tasty homemade dressing, like a very thin tahini. It should be about the size of your two fists, but that addition puts bulk in your stomach, as well as nutrients so that you eat a little less.
This was delightful👌The charming Burak sharing his weight loss journey is very inspiring. The simplicity of his approach makes it seem attainable for those intimidated by conventional diets. You look fabulous and healthy, Burak❣️It is also nice to revisit some of Refika’s lovely recipes and see some new adaptations. Loved it‼️
Great result !! Enjoying YOU is the most important thing you can do for you ❣️ Keeping yourself from things will frustrate you in the end so what you do now is a good thing, everything in moderation keeps you being you and enjoying life … cute doggie by the way❣️(there to help you and love you unconditionally). This is a fun episode guys 😁
hey! I was about to tell you exactly that! I had to practice sport again because of hypertension so I began walking just a little every day. then 20 minutes became 30, then an hour. and I thought why not having a dog? and I adopted one. now I don't go to a walk EVERY day, but nearly every day. never less than 4 times a week. I didn't become slimmer (wasn't my goal) but became fitter. and my hypertension went down.... yey!
Hi Burak! I went through a very similar journey as you. It has been two years since I had to create new holes in my belt. I understand you very well. I cut down on carbs and stopped eating processed foods. No special exercises, just walking daily to the office and back home. Of course, not on weekends. Fingers crossed for keeping it!
Bravo Burak! Your weight lose journey inspired me to follow your tips and lose some weight. Those cooking tips are great, please give us more of your recipes, tips & tricks. Please share more information. I will use your recipes for sure. Good job in losing the weight!!!
Well done Burak, you're looking great and congrats on the new friend! You did the right thing, trying to lose weight after 40 is awful, it doesn't want to come off.
Well done Burack on losing the weight. For me keeping the weight down is the hardest in the past. Intermittent fasting helps me keep my weight stable. I keep my bread consumption low and only have a dessert once a week unless of there is a wedding or celebration. I haven't had to diet since 2009 following this plan.
WOOOHOOO!!!!! Good for you! I know that you can do it and we are all rooting for you. Just keep doing all of the positive things that you are doing and don't let anything get in your way. NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS LOOKING GOOD AND BEING HEALTHY! Hugs and happiness:):):):) Love you Refika:):):):):)
My diets are three parts. 1 - Count calories. Eat 500 - 1000 fewer calories than I burn, every day. This results in 1 to 2 lbs weight loss per week (1/2 - 1 kg). 2 - Nutrition. Eat balanced, healthy meals. 3 - Exercise. Add a daily/weekly exercise plan. I do these in stages ... calorie counting for a few weeks, then pay attention to nutrition. After a few more weeks start the exercise. I lost 50 lbs this way (23 kg) and have more or less kept it off for 10 years. I spent two months in Istanbul recently, and another two months traveling so I have 6 or 7 kg to take off ... but usually I maintain my weight. Bottom line is that you need to find what works for you and do it! Great job, Burak!
intermittent fasting worked for me -- I lost about 45 pounds in 2020, and have continued to lose 10 more pounds since then. I'm at the lowest ideal weight I want to be now and don't feel like I have to sacrifice anything! my appetite was permanently reduced by the fasting and I still do it because it just makes me feel better. make it a lifestyle change and it will last!
Good for you, Burak, making a decision to be healthier and feel as well as possible! I agree that maintaining works better if you are disciplined but not completely rigid, so you never feel that you are depriving yourself. Good luck to you in continuing :) And thank you for mentioning so many specific recipes and including them in the description! I don't know how I missed that kokoreç but I'll be making it now!
This is a wonderful video. It’s so relatable and informative. I would love for you to continue sharing your journey. It’s a real comfort and inspiration in my own journey. I hope you are very proud of what you have done for yourself and your loved ones. ❤
I’ve also lost weight (50 pounds so far) intermittent fasting and Turkish food has been an amazing addition. Your Menemen recipe has been an awesome addition. Avocado has been a fabulous fasting snack and I put some of Refika’s salt on it and it helps me from eating off my arm. I’ve used hearts of palm (seeds) in place of rice. They are a superfood and make a great rice replacement.
Thanks for sharing your weight loss journey and your tips. For me it has been a life long struggle and it is nice when someone succeeds. You are doing it in a sensible way so it can be sustained - I am very happy for you!! I can't wait to try the lentil bread as a wrap.
Burak, you look FANTASTIC!!! I have had a weight issue as well - keeping it off once I lose it. I look forward to seeing your journey and hopefully go along with you too - via video of course!! Thank you for sharing your experience with us and I would appreciate updates. Thank you Refika too!🌻🌻
Yes! Me too! I start my day with ☕ till 1pm. ❤️Love the dishes to try. I bought bilgar! For Refika. ❤️Love your show! At 21 I was diagnosed with Lactose Intolerance. Dr said no cheese only yogurt. But 2 yrs ago at 68 I discovered I can eat cheese! Brie too! Just check the sugar content if it's 0 then there's no Lactase so voila I can eat it! Yogurt always goes right thru me. I checked the sugar voila always 5 grams or more!
Way to go, Burak! We want to see your journey! One suggestion, try plant-based milk in your coffee. It should give you the same feeling of fullness without consuming dairy.
Be wary of commercial plant "milks" as the carageenan or similar thickeners are toxic. Can affect lymph nodes. Used to cause autoimmune diseases in lab rats for drug testing purposes. Not good. Make own from scratch, with low-oxalate plants to protect kidneys.
I watched all the Turkish videos but of course I had to come and watch English video of the process, as well as the other contents. Congratulations to Burak and the entire team who produce amazing themes for both channels💘
Hi there. Thank you for this video. South Africa is just going into spring, and I am ready to start my diet. I am a 70 year old granny and although I've lost 10kg over the last 5 years, its a battle to stay focused and keep the weight off. I would LOVE to see more videos on your progress. I was in Turkey last year and lived it. I hope to visit more often because my grandson attends school in Konya. InshaAllah I hope to meet all of you on my next visit. Noerie. Johannesburg, South Africa. ❤
Thanks for sharing this on your English language channel......NOW, can you PLEASE ALSO SHARE all the lovely diyete recipes you post on your Turkish channel....❤
I adore you all! I was very slowly becoming a vegetarian- with a little neat now and again. Learning to make the delicious recipes from your channel have made it sooo easy- and what do you know? My weight has reduced. Very slowly-BUT the habit changes are permanent. I feel great- and enjoy preparing gorgeous looking , yet simple, meals. I had to commit to planning ahead a little every day. No matter what I make sure I have beans and a whole grain ready . I can make almost anything with that base. I am not as good easily tempted to get take out or grab premade foods at the grocery. Thank you all for your amazing channel.
Don't be mad about your weight. You are working in THE KITCHEN, and there will be food !!! I had +6 kg after 3 months as a kitchen aid. Dog is a great companion. I can also recommend dance lessons as they are both tiring and elegant. May the force be with you!
I hope things are going well for you. I lost 50lbs a few years ago. Keeping it off is the challenge. I agree with little cheats helping. Really enjoying food rather than just suffering to meet some kind of goal. Cheering you on!!
Seeing Burak running up Bican Efendi gave me so much anxiety that I need a proper Kokorech sandwich to recover from it 🤣🤣🤣. Also, buttoning up is so overrated. But jokes aside, you have done an amazing job adopting into the healthier lifestyle. It requires a lot of discipline and self control.
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing all your tips. I would love to see an update in a few months. You have a wonderful upbeat personality. ❤❤❤ Love you guys!
Congratulations! ❤ Thank you for sharing what was helpful to you. I have no taste for a few months because of radiation treatment. It's easier to avoid sweets or other foods which are tasty, but not good for me, because everything tastes weird. Walking every day helped me to combat fatigue and get my energy back. Bell well!
I have been trying but has been unsuccessful in loising weight. I am also a type 2 diabetic, your food ideas and story is inspiring and i am going to try them. Thank you for an episode showing how lovely comfort food can be healthy and still enjoyable.

I agree ; healthy, happy, positive energy.
That is so true! ❤ to both of you!
Yes! They keep me company and fill my day with happiness! Even boring chores become joyful when they’re in my living room.
Bravo Burak! I made the same diet. Only eating twice a day, most oriental food (Turkish, Iranian, Lebanese) I lost 18 kg. It really works. ;-)

Clever. Will tey that. Cabbage works as well i guess

Whatever you enjoy and will not be tired of. Sometimes, it's good to change from week to week, either the greens or the dressing.

Intermittent Fasting 16/8 or 18/6. Love your dedication to your journey. Great job Burak.😊
Good for you, Burak, making a decision to be healthier and feel as well as possible!

Great Job Burak, well done. Glad you mentioned that being responsible is important. Keep up the good work! 🎉
Thanks for sharing your weight loss journey and your tips. For me it has been a life long struggle and it is nice when someone succeeds. You are doing it in a sensible way so it can be sustained - I am very happy for you!! I can't wait to try the lentil bread as a wrap.
Well done Burak. You are an inspiration and so relatable. Crossing fingers 🤞 that you keep it off.
Yey!
Intermittent fasting!
I do 18/6
OMAD with very light coffee after noon. Nothing after 6pm, when possible.
❤❤❤
Burak, you look FANTASTIC!!! I have had a weight issue as well - keeping it off once I lose it. I look forward to seeing your journey and hopefully go along with you too - via video of course!! Thank you for sharing your experience with us and I would appreciate updates. Thank you Refika too!🌻🌻
Bravo Burak! Keep it up. We ❤ you!
You got a dog!!! So adorable.
Congrats Burack!
Mashallah, you look younger ,and fitter, I hope you stay on your journey , love to you,and all your lovely team.
Such a great épisode! Loved all the good pieces of advice and the inspiration! Keep it up and keep us inspired!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻💪🏻
Yes, please update in a couple of months. Keep going!
Yes! Me too! I start my day with ☕ till 1pm. ❤️Love the dishes to try. I bought bilgar!
For Refika. ❤️Love your show!
At 21 I was diagnosed with Lactose Intolerance. Dr said no cheese only yogurt. But 2 yrs ago at 68 I discovered I can eat cheese! Brie too! Just check the sugar content if it's 0 then there's no Lactase so voila I can eat it! Yogurt always goes right thru me. I checked the sugar voila always 5 grams or more!
Way to go, Burak! We want to see your journey! One suggestion, try plant-based milk in your coffee. It should give you the same feeling of fullness without consuming dairy.
I will try!💪🏻
Be wary of commercial plant "milks" as the carageenan or similar thickeners are toxic. Can affect lymph nodes. Used to cause autoimmune diseases in lab rats for drug testing purposes. Not good. Make own from scratch, with low-oxalate plants to protect kidneys.
Great job 👏🏻
I would love to vist you guys when I come to Turkey 🇹🇷
I watched all the Turkish videos but of course I had to come and watch English video of the process, as well as the other contents. Congratulations to Burak and the entire team who produce amazing themes for both channels💘
I am on this journey with you, once again losing weight. Thank you for sharing.
congratulations Burak!
Hi there. Thank you for this video. South Africa is just going into spring, and I am ready to start my diet. I am a 70 year old granny and although I've lost 10kg over the last 5 years, its a battle to stay focused and keep the weight off.
I would LOVE to see more videos on your progress.
I was in Turkey last year and lived it. I hope to visit more often because my grandson attends school in Konya. InshaAllah I hope to meet all of you on my next visit.

CONGRATS Burak and THANK YOU Refika
I adore you all! I was very slowly becoming a vegetarian- with a little neat now and again. Learning to make the delicious recipes from your channel have made it sooo easy- and what do you know? My weight has reduced. Very slowly-BUT the habit changes are permanent. I feel great- and enjoy preparing gorgeous looking , yet simple, meals. I had to commit to planning ahead a little every day. No matter what I make sure I have beans and a whole grain ready . I can make almost anything with that base. I am not as good easily tempted to get take out or grab premade foods at the grocery. Thank you all for your amazing channel.
Impressed! Congratulations! 🎉
How lovely. I’m glad this worked for you and make me want to try thanks for sharing ❤
Good job Burak, continue .
Burak, you are great!!! Simple but informative....
Please show us your meal planning and prep.
Amazing results Burak, congratulations and thanks for sharing ❤❤
So happy for you! Real good advise. You do look younger in the last clip with your pet. It must be the shave though.
🎉congrats 👏 yes please share and keep us updated on your eeightloss journey and the recipes you make. Proud of you and how strong you are
Love hearing Burak!!! Sweet man! The different foods all looks so very good!! Blessings!
Don't be mad about your weight. You are working in THE KITCHEN, and there will be food !!!
I had +6 kg after 3 months as a kitchen aid. Dog is a great companion. I can also recommend dance lessons as they are both tiring and elegant.
May the force be with you!
Thank you Borek. I give blessings for your journey. Take care of yourself each day a new day.
Love Borak and Refika you both are all amazing and I love all you teach us. We can learn much from your videos you all are the best!🐞🦬🐢🥰

Burak!! Your videos are my favourite! You’re so funny. Keep the videos coming!
😍😍
Would love to see in a couple of months!
Congrats on an awesome job! You look great! I would have told Refika "I'll walk 3 days a week if you join me"!
Congratulations! ❤ Thank you for sharing what was helpful to you. I have no taste for a few months because of radiation treatment. It's easier to avoid sweets or other foods which are tasty, but not good for me, because everything tastes weird. Walking every day helped me to combat fatigue and get my energy back. Bell well!
