alright guys I’m back and in this video

we’re gonna talk about the 15 reasons

why you may not be losing on a low-carb

keto plan okay number one you are losing

but you don’t realize it because your

muscles are repairing okay now weight

loss is not the best indicator of

getting healthy and the principle you

have to really get is that you have to

get healthy to lose weight not lose

weight to get healthy so the best

indicator of health is energy level

it’s the cravings go away you’re no

longer hungry versus just losing weight

in the repetitive actions when your body

actually heals you have all sorts of

proteins replacing other proteins and

you may have atrophy which is a loss of

muscle which needs to be replaced but

when you take the situation where your

weight loss is stopped really focus on

are you losing inches okay so you’re

shrinking but the weight of the muscle

is making you look like you’re not

alright so number two you are eating too

frequently just because maybe you

haven’t done in a minute fasting yet

this is a very very very key thing right

here I can’t emphasize this enough

intermittent fasting is probably even

more important than keto okay as far as

health benefits so we don’t want to do

snacks we want to go less frequent you

should be eating two meals and some of

you maybe one meal with no snacks okay

number three your carbs are too high if

your metabolism is slow if you’re going

through menopause if you have a thyroid

problem you need to go down to like 10

grams of carb or less just because you

have to do it because the metabolism is

slow so we reduce the carb we make it

easier to get the weight off okay number

four doing keto partially so many people

when I talk to them you ask them are you

doing keto yeah I’m sort of doing it

like and you find out they’re not really

doing it like they should or they’re

having cheat days on the weekend that’s

gonna really shut down your results for

not just for a day for probably for

several days and if you’re cheating

every other day you’re not gonna see the

results

so you just need to do it perfectly

that’s all all right number five sugar

alcohols these are alternative

sweeteners that can cause disruption in

your gut in the flora because some of

them act as a fiber and you can retain

fluid and just that digestive stress can

keep you from losing weight so just make

note of this but a lot of people when

they start out doing keto they need this

because they don’t like to give up their

sweets so they have a dessert

replacement all right number six stress

that includes losses trauma surgery okay

because you’re gonna spike cortisol and

cortisol turns your muscle into sugar

which then raises your insulin number

seven sleep if you notice when you’re

not sleeping that well your hunger goes

up your blood Sugar’s go off so a lack

of sleep will totally keep you from

burning fat number eight your thoughts

too high now in the beginning you want

to increase your fat because you want to

be able to make it from one meal to the

next without getting hungry but as your

body adapts to fat burning you want to

cut down your dietary fat to force your

body to burn its own fat okay alright

number nine your protein is too high too

much protein will stimulate insulin and

keep you from losing weight a moderate

amount of protein will not okay ten

dairy and nuts potentially could create

inflammation in your digestion in your

gall bladder and your colon and that

inflammation can keep you from losing

weight alright number eleven your

vegetables are too starchy you may need

to avoid squash or piece or a pumpkin or

carrots or even tomatoes and beets you

might want to stick with the leafy

greens if your metabolism is slow number

twelve medications especially those

medications that are anti-anxiety

anti-depressive antibiotics there’s so

many different medications that will

keep you from losing weight why because

they stimulate insulin okay thirteen

you’re not exercising you need to

exercise

everyone needs to exercise alright 14

you’re over exercising you’re doing too

much and you’re not recovering I

remember a patient and practice that was

came in and she was working out I’m not

kidding

six hours a day she was working out six

hours a day and she was concerned

because she wasn’t losing any weight so

we cut it way back okay to an hour and

then she started losing weight I had

another guy come in he was working out

every day

I switched him to two times a week and

that was the only thing that helped him

lose weight so if you’re getting sore if

you’re getting tired don’t exercise on

top of that okay because the benefit of

exercise is in the recovery phase after

you’re working out so you don’t want to

over train number 15 restaurants this is

the crapshoot because you don’t know

what you’re getting you got hidden sugar

you have different oils like soy oil

which is high in omega-6 that are in the

sauces and the dressings you just don’t

know what you’re getting so if you’re

going out to dinner too much this could

throw you off alright guys there you

have it

now 15 reasons why you may not be losing

on keto alright number eleven vegetables

too starchy what do we have a dog
