hey guys in this video we’re going to

talk about the ten reasons why your

belly might not be shrinking on a

ketogenic plan okay now it would be nice

just to give you a simple plan that you

can do and it would work 100% of the

time but each body is different and

there are very specific reasons why you

might not be losing your belly okay

let’s start with number one not doing it

correctly so many people that I talked

to I listen to what they’re doing and

they’re they haven’t read the book

they’re kind of just they saw a video

and they’re just trying it halfway and

they’re doing it partially they’re not

doing it correctly so you want to bring

your carbs down to 20 grams per day

maybe even less okay if your metabolism

is really slow and you’re going through

menopause and you’ve done many diets in

the past you’re going to probably your

carbs down to 10 grams per day that’s

just what it’s going to take because we

have to counter that slow metabolism a

protein have a moderate amount of

protein between three and six ounces per

day large quantities of vegetables and

as far as the fat in the very beginning

you’re going to consume more fat to

allow yourself to go from one meal to

the next but as you start getting into

it you have to cut that fat back because

what we don’t want is your body to turn

the dietary fat in the ketones and not

your own body fat into ketones we want

to rely on your own body fat so we want

to cut that down I have a ton of videos

on that I’ll put some links down below

so this is number one number two you’re

not doing in a minute fasting you’re

only doing keto well that’s not going to

work because every time you eat you

trigger insulin and so by doing in a min

fasting you can greatly accelerate the

results and decrease insulin big-time so

the combination is really essential

there are so many therapeutic reasons

why you need to do going to fasting but

that’s in another video so we want to

combine these two you want to start up

three meals and then slowly do two meals

okay by pushing your breakfast forward

to the point where you’re not hungry in

the morning and then you want to take

your dinner in your lunch and squish

them together that would be the ideal

scene to the point where you may want to

go to one meal it

if your metabolism is really slow and or

if you have a slow thyroid okay it’s

just what you’re gonna have to do at

this point number three it is working

and you might think it’s not working

okay now in the beginning of the program

a lot of people lose a lot of weight and

then all of a sudden they slow down the

weight loss and they think it’s not

working there used to like a pound a day

and now they go a pound a week and they

think it’s not working they get

frustrated on a real healthy person the

most you can lose is two pounds a week

I’m sorry but that’s just the fact on an

average person it could be one pound a

week it’s still working it’s just gonna

take some time so the goal is to get

healthy then lose the weight so what I

would recommend is focus on the other

indicators like energy tolerance for

sleep memory focus inflammation focus on

those not just the weight loss okay but

if you’re losing even a half a pound a

week its whoo it’s working but it’s it’s

a little slower but we can always speed

it up but the point is that don’t give

up if you’re only losing a half a pound

or a pound a week just tweak things

number four if you have a fat liver the

capacity to make ketones the the

capacity to make growth hormone work is

going to be less and the capacity to rid

the fats going to be less so you’re

gonna have to improve this fatty liver I

have a video down below on how to do

that you need you need to get some

choline that’s a type of B vitamin it

strips off out of the liver and it’ll

help you the other point about this is

that if your stomach is large your body

will have to get rid of the fat in the

liver before the fat underneath here in

your abdomen area so even though your

abdomen might not be shrinking your body

is still losing fat but it has to get

get it out of the organs first before it

gets rid of the superficial or the fat

that’s right underneath your abdomen so

that’s just a point I want to bring up

because it’s very very common so the

body will go off to the liver first and

the organs and then

the other fat second number five you’re

gaining muscle mass if you’re female and

you’re menopausal chances are you have a

lot of atrophy

that’s loss of muscle it looks just like

fat but it’s atrophy one way to know

that is if you’re sitting in a chair and

you get up and it takes you a lot of

work to get up because your quadricep

your your thigh muscles are weak you

have atrophy so you’re gonna have to

gain the muscle back while you’re doing

in a minute fasting in keto and in the

process muscle by volume weighs more

than fat so you might find no loss of

midsection yet you’re getting stronger

the point I wanna make is that it takes

a really healthy diet for a good year or

two to get these muscles back with

exercise so it’s not going to happen

in a week or two so go for the long haul

I know it’s frustrating but that’s just

the facts of what’s going to happen but

you will eventually get it back because

atrophy is a is a pretty serious problem

it’s not a little thing it’s like your

muscles are basically gone okay number

six you’re not exercising correctly or

you’re not exercising at all exercise is

not the big tool to help you lose weight

but it can really help increase growth

hormone toning and a little bit of

weight loss okay so this is important

high intensity low duration short little

bursts of high-intensity full-body

exercise is the best I mean if you can

do sprinting that would be the ideal

scene but some people they don’t have

good knees so they have to get in the

bike the spin bike and start doing that

for a while

elliptical but for a lot of people you

have to just start just walking that’s

their first first step so do what you

can gradually work up to it number seven

if you bloat from the vegetables that

you’re not used to consuming or too much

fat or whatever because you don’t have

enough stomach acid or enough bile from

the gallbladder that can make your

stomach stay big when I was in practice

there were people that actually had food

allergies that kept them bloating

there are people that are doing kale

that they were just bloated week after

week they didn’t connect the dots that

they can’t digest those foods they

developed constipation well how you

gonna lose weight if you have

constipation so we want to have you

consume foods that you can digest so

regular lettuce green lettuce is

probably easier to digest than spinach

or other vegetables so modify the type

of vegetables that you consume and make

sure you have no bloating maybe you need

some help with apple cider vinegar

pertain how to chloride some gallbladder

support all right number eight other

health problems so let’s say you have a

thyroid issue let’s say you have some

other hormonal issue you have hot

flashes you have a heart condition

these other health problems can inhibit

your ability to lose weight because as

you get healthy sometimes the body will

focus on other problems first before

losing the weight so what I like to do

is I like to get rid of all the weak

links in your body bless so let’s say

for example you’re trying to lose weight

it’s not working well what is the

weakest link in your body is it the

thyroid is it the adrenals focus on that

then watch what happens to the weight

because it’s all about getting healthy

then losing the weight all right number

nine medications lots of medications

from cholesterol medication statins -

antidepressant medications have a little

side effects of preventing weight loss

in fact a lot of the symptoms from these

medications are you develop more insulin

resistance which increases more insulin

well you’re going to have to get with

your doctor to find an alternative

something natural maybe that you can

work with but that’s between you and

your doctor because the medication is

just going to be a barrier it’s going to

keep things really slow and one more

point about medications if your blood

values are normal and the doctor still

has you on medications then find another

doctor because you don’t want to take

medications if you really don’t need

them alright number 10

stress and lack of sleep can severely

inhibit your ability to lose your belly

so I have tons of videos on techniques

that you can do things you can do food

you can eat

nutrition you can take to reduce stress

usually supporting a healthy adrenal

gland to enhance the sleep which will

then actually greatly help you lose

weight I mean there are people that all

we did is fix their sleep and they

started losing weight not changing their

diet not doing anything else and they

continue to exercise all we did is tweak

the sleep improve it a little bit and

all of a sudden that was to the point

where they start losing weight so it’s

quite amazing all right guys there you

have it to find out which ones apply and

go ahead and focus on that and thanks

for watching
