Cutting back on protein helped me. I stopped eating red meat and mostly eat chicken and pork and I’m losing again. I’m eating more vegetables and eggs. I used to hear people on keto saying to be careful you’re not having too much protein and that that could stall you. I never thought that that was an issue for me because I wasn’t eating tons of protein. But as soon as I cut back on the red meat and ate less Protein I started losing again. I lost 6 lbs in about a week just from making that change. I also try to go for a walk every day. Love your recipes!

I really don't think cutting red meat made the difference. Protein is protein. If you consume lower portions of red meat then you get less protein.

I dont know what it is but every time i eat ground beef (love) or steak, i gain!!! The very next day. And it takes a couple of days to get it off. I KNOW the next day i didn't actually gain a pound or two of fat, so I'm not saying it's FAT on my scale the next day after red meat, but it is still discouraging... so, now, if i have eggs, chicken, tuna... no gain! But i know steak is super keto. So i don't understand. Nevertheless, it's incredibly important to stay encouraged. So i lay off red meat unless it's a couple of bites, OR if I've had a lot of loss lately and I'm super encouraged -- then i will enjoy a good steak or a meal with yummy grass fed organic ground beef. Even within it being good and keto, it tends to make my weight go up a couple of days, so i have it as a reward after a period of hard work.🥳🎶🎵🎶👑

What did you replace your protein with to stay satiated? ✌️

Like Dr. Berg recommends once you are in ketosis the best exercise is walking

I started Keto in April. It’s been a hit and miss, but I have it down now. One thing I have noticed is that I’m hardly hungry and I don’t crave food like I used to. My taste buds have change and I’ve always been such a foodie. Nothing appeals to me anymore. Once in awhile I will get the urge to have something sweet, so I’ll make something keto. I love this diet. It definitely works for me since I’m hypoglycemic and I don’t get the jitters anymore.

I needed to hear this! Finally realized I have not been going to sleep early or drinking enough water, it’s not just about working out and eating clean which I’ve been super consistent about. Thank you! I’ll be working on those areas!

My son plateaued at 50lbs his spine Dr told him to fast Mondays only eat dinner, but he is fasting Sunday and m on and he started losing again. He's lost 65lbs now he's got 35 to go. He did get very frustrated but he got over that hump and we continue. Thank you for this info. You are a beautiful person,thanks for all your recipes, I've told you before, you helped us get to this point you are our mentor for this keto diet. Thanks again

Great tip on intermittent fasting to break the plateau! It does work! I also break my fast at 11am -12pm. I also like your tip on exercise. Did not think about my body getting use to the same exercise done over and over which I am doing right now. Need to change it up a bit. One tip I do have for you with sparkling waters: make sure it is natural carbonation! The artificial one is not good for the enamel of your teeth.

Yeah, we (my husband and I ) just went through something like this on the weight stall portion. we use fasting which brings us out of the stall almost right away. we do an 8-hour eating window with a 16 hour fast. The thing is, is that you get used to not eating and doing high protein causes you to not be hungry so that's how we deal with it.

Awesome!!! Helpful!!!

This video could not have come at a better time!! I have been so frustrated with my plateau (its been a few months now).

Please be careful when telling someone to hydrate hydrate hydrate. My doctor told me to drink drink drink water he didn’t say how much to drink, he just said drink drink drink and I did. It wasn’t an obscene amount or anything just quite a bit more than usual. I ended up with water poisoning, which is actually a thing. I had no idea! And I almost died. I ended up having to go to a nursing home for 2 1/2 months because water poisoning messed me up that bad. I could barely walk, I was barely getting any oxygen to my brain, water was surrounding my heart, I had pneumonia. I passed out in a bathtub full of water. Not a regular bathtub a huge walk-in tub. By the grace of God somehow it drained while I was in the footwell of that tub unconscious. So I didn’t drown….. but the medical problems I got from the water poisoning almost killed me. So while most people can handle over hydrating to a point some can’t and it’s a crapshoot on which is which or who is which. I just wanted to let you know so you don’t get in any kind of trouble for that because it is technically Medical advice because of the ramifications that it can have.

What is your opinion on alternate days fasting, meaning not eating at all for alternative days? Also when you mentioned starvation when we don’t eat, i am under the impression that the body would be in the autophagy mode and start burning more fats .

Totally agree! For me getting the stress under control and sleeping well is key, as well as mixing up on the fasting and training schedule. If you have a device that measure HRV its really helping in keeping track of your stress level and sleep quality. And then there is food tracking..

That is sooo true. Once u start to track, both macros and calorie, you have no idea how much of which u eat. Crazy!! I was shocked when I saw how fast carbs add up. And now not only I track calories, I track carbs and started to eat low carb and IF (16/8) because my scale doesn't move, but I did lose 1 cm tho😁 And of course i do excercise, 3-5x a week, weight, kettlebells, HIIT

Yknow....ever since I discovered I was type2 diabetic and began closely monitoring my blood sugars I was amazed at how even in ketosis...yes deep ketosis...blood sugar could be high. I also noticed something interesting too...that whenever I hit a plateau....my blood sugar was extra high...again....even in ketosis...why this happens I don't know...the liver tries to compensate I guess. The body says hey guys...wete having tip into our reserves so we better work extra hard on conservation. And so the body works to conserve its fat stores. It seems the best way to get around this is to either... eat only meat...water fast... and if you have the energy...do cardio....or some walking. But yes....don't be surprised if during a plateau....your blood sugar is high

An estrategy that help me break this was fat fasting, just to make my IF longer...so every morning, when I was reaching 14 hours +/- of fasting, I drank bullet proof coffee, with 1 tbsp of coconut oil and one of butter. That gave me enough energy to reach 18 hours. After that I ate my usual keto meal, vegs with meat or avocado with eggs etc... About exercises, doctors here that recommend keto to lose weight suggest to do only low intensity workout and to lift weights every other day...

Look up veggies highest in protein and prioritize those.
