Fasting, Autophagy, and Reducing Loose Skin 

Here is part 1 of this series: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NdojPEPtSuU.html Here is part 3: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-68muCDEoeyQ.html

I'm 5'3" and lost 210+ pounds. I say "+" because I broke the scale at 340 pounds, at which point you have to pay medical personnel to put you on a freight scale and humiliate you in public. I wasn't that curious! So, I know I was more than 340 pounds, but I don't know how much more. I lost the weight in my 60s, so unsurprisingly, I ended up with loose skin. I have discovered dermatology treatments: RF (radio frequency therapy) helped a lot. I also do micro-needling at home, which also stimulates new (tighter!) collagen formation and red light therapy (I got a flexible therapy red light combined with infrared light. 'belt' off of Amazon). All of these treatments and devices together improved my skin considerably. I'm still a little wobbly and crepey in parts - but I'm in my 70s, so I give myself a pass!

My brother's friend has been using autophagy, keto and collagen powder for loose skin. It's taken 3 years, but his results have been amazing without all of the scars left from surgery

My sister went to the hospital and told the doctor that she’s in autophogy because she was fasting. And the doctor asked her “ what’s that” 🤦‍♀️ this is why I’d rather listen to people like you. Who ACTUALLY know this stuff. Thankyou 👍

I’ve done several 3 & 7 day water only fasts before. Today I’m currently on my 6th day of Water only Fasting for 40 days and 40 nights. Don’t let the food pimps trick you into forgetting how powerful our bodies are. I can’t speak for SKINNY PEOPLE, but if you’re overweight in the slightest, FAST!

I reveresed T2D and lost stubborn weight with Dr. Jason Fung and I have "Zero" loose skin and needed no exercise other than walking to do it. Dr. Jason Fung and The Fasting Method saved my life along with my sanity ❤.

Autophagy works! I tore my meniscus and had surgery to repair it, however, I have been dealing with pain and inflammation in my knee for years, preventing me from taking long walks or even walking up stairs normally, very depressing. After watching Dr. Frank and starting my ADF journey, all knee pain disappeared within the first week...amazing!

Im currently on my 4th 40 day water fast. Its changed my life. I went from around 360lbs to around 205, and I have almost no loose skin. After my 3rd fast I allowed myself to gain 30 back, and now I am getting back to my more ideal weight. IME the longer you fast, the more effective your autophagy.

18hr Fasting is now my norm. What I love about it is I don't restrict what I feel like eating in the 6hr window (even ice cream or fried chicken occasionally, no issues) so I don't get weird food fixations or feel like I'm missing out. Combined with long daily walks it's worked great.

My husband and I have been doing 36 hour fasts followed by 12 hour eating window (staying away from crappy food) all November and we plan to continue and add in some 48 and 72 hours fasts. So many health benefits!! Amazing how awesome God designed our bodies! 🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼☺️

I've lost 144lbs since July 2022 and have way less loose skin than I expected. I wasn't sure why until I found your videos . I do intermittent fasting (17hrs) and cleansing . With low impact exercises. Like walking and weighted hula hoop. I also stay hydrated.

I’m 18 hours into a fast and my body can’t figure out if it’s full or hungry 😂. I’m hungry, but I feel like I just ate lol

Your voice is very good for audio reading

The skin adjustments take years. It is so slow that the change does not seem notice-able, but it does happen. I have been doing 5-n-2 for awhile, with the 2 periods being 36-hr fasts. It is really important to include resistance training in the fast period. Prioritize protein when feeding.

Good video, im 64 years old , on keto now Carnavore, im down from 346 to 319, i have these little ugly hanging skin near my upper legs , I noticed since going OMAD these are tightening up , last month did 3 day water fast and a couple good work outs, noticed even better looking, now i know why , im fighting to see the 2:s on my scale this year. Thanks Dr

I accidentally followed your protocol before I knew about it just a little bit varied. I’m eating Mediterranean eating one meal a day on Thursday I have dinner and then don’t eat till Sunday at dinner. I’ve been averaging 13000 steps and in the 3 weeks I’ve been swimming as many laps as I can in 30 minutes. I’ve also stopped drinking alcohol and focusing on getting better longer sleep I average about 6.5 hours of deep/core/rem I started all of this on 26/12/2023 I’ve lost 22 kg in around 10 weeks I was 162 kg. No lose skin so far.

I started Carnivore diet almost 1 year ago, and lost 90 lbs, i went from a 56 inch waist to 32 - 34 inch waist and went from a double to triple XL size in clothes to a size medium. Although ive never felt better physically and mentally, ive been worried about my loose skin and could it improve without surgery. Thank you for this video, it is very informative and helpful and you done a great job explaining a topic that doesn't get much coverage.👍

I love fasting, it really helps me in many areas

I've been keto for almost 5 years now, started with 300lbs and stalled at ~220 and I maintained that weight. I have very stubborn belly fat and a lot of skin to shrink, doing the ocasional 72hs and several 120hs, but I didn't break my stall or reduce my skin, until I saw a video of yours where you talk about your ADF and I said: "I can try that". I adapted in 2 weeks and is like nothing, now I moved to carnivore, started lifting weights and sprinting and I feel great, I'm in 185lbs now. Thank you for your great videos.

I’ve fasted for a couple of years now off and on. I enjoy the challenge of 20:4 and OMAD. I’m currently in my second week of Carnivore + OMAD and I feel fantastic. I lost over 10lbs week one which is great but more importantly my mental clarity, skin, and aches/pains/inflammation are in a much better place. Excited to see where this takes me.

Love the Barbell Medicine tshirt in some of your thumbnails. I’ve been a follower of Jordan and Austin for years and use their training templates frequently.

This is just what I needed. Thank you for explaining so clearly.

New subscriber! I’ve NEVER seen a RU-vidr who answers nearly every single comment with more than a brief reply or a heart. 😍 This is the first of your videos I’ve watched, and I will be binge watching as many as I can! I’m nearly 3 years Keto (almost 69 yo) and I regularly fast 16/8, used to do a weekly 41 hr fast, which I need to resume. I’m usually two meals a day, but I very often switch it up with OMAD (eating only breakfast.) Over these 3 years I’ve lost…and kept off…36 lbs, totally eliminated years of arthritis pain. I would love if you did a video on the differences between Keto and Ketovore. Thank you for such real, honest, and inspiring content, so well presented! 🥰

Love this format of information, wish you great health brother

New subscriber. I love your content. Unbiased information is what I always look for. I am about 35 hours into a 72 hour fast for the first time. Peace and love from Atlanta, GA 🇺🇸🌎🌍🌎

I tried fasting for many years... full 30-day fast... 7-day fast.. 24hrs..on -off etc and plenty of others.... went full keto for a year... and workout morning and night....I no longer fast and eat 3 meals day...every 3-4hrs. For me, the skin tightening wasn't until I started eating healthier (imo).....introducing veggies and fruits back into my diet...along with proteins and healthy fats... I no longer get bloated or constipated!...I can truly eat until I am full and have fully eaten until I am fully satisfied which is amazing for me, and my tummy never gains weight and just continues to look healthier and better, tighter and stronger abs...skin looks as good as it did 20 yrs ago and muscles tone throughout my entire body is as good as it was 20 yrs ago if not better... 32-inch waist... down from 41... All in all... my message would be to anyone that no matter what any expert tells you ... everyone is different... You won't die if you eat some fruit and veggies... unless you have a serious condition you're treating. Just do what works for you... please never just follow what you are seeing is working for others because I wasted so much time and money looking the same and feeling tired and terrible for so long because I thought all the youtube Dr's were telling me I had to follow their rules or I would get diabetes or cancer.... just eat a healthy rounded diet 80% clean whole foods and 20% of what eve you enjoy daily and exercise every day and STAY CONSISTENT! do what works for you... good luck! : ) OH... most importantly...this takes many months/years!! not a few weeks.. to tighten the skin... just like mentioned in this video.. But it does tighten...(also apply body moisturizer to the area every day!) You just have to stay consistent with your routine..even when you think nothing is getting any better...it will!

Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge. It’s helpful.

I'm so glad that you are covering important areas! Like if you have asthma etc that maybe you shouldn't go there! People often don't think! Also showing the no refund very important info to know! Kudos to you for saying what needs to be said!

I’m loving your evidenced based proofs…

I have been OMAD over 3 years by now and I enjoy with this lifestyle 👍😊🏃‍♂️

Love the content. Thank you for this education! I lost 25 lbs and stopped Metformin for T2D with A1C 5.8. My journey continues to monitor my glucose spikes. IF, low carbs, no sugar etc. Much to learn.

Great job! Congratulations!!

I’m subscribing. I like your content and so far your videos. This is to the point and you put a link to the earlier part one video here in the comments and I saw it in the show notes. I have watched more than a few from others that referenced earlier videos in the series and I wasn’t able to find the earlier ones. P.S. I checked and you have accurate playlists AND these two on loose skin are there. Great find…

Look forward to your ketogenic videos 😊

Dr. O love your approach to weight loss. As an ICU nurse I appreciate your reference to studies and explaining their design. I was diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic in 2016. I was very compliant to ADA recommendations and using insulin kept my A1C below 6 and all of my other labs well within normal range. Over the last year my weight had crept up and my activity due to pandemic restriction had reduced to essentially nothing. My labs also began to concern me with lowering GFR

One of the best videos with scientific support as it pertains to autophagy and loose skin I have watched thus far. I have had some great success with consistently doing extended dirty fasting since February 5th. This includes fasting of 72, 96, 240, and currently towards the end of 144 hrs. I've tried textbook extended water fasting and ADF in the past and although I enjoyed the mental clarity aspect; I didn't like the side effects so to speak. However, the way I've done it thus far has allowed me to be consistent and it's fairly easy for me to stick to it which is my overall goal more than anything in addition to weightloss and improved body composition by losing inches. With that said, based on your vid I am going to incorporate resistance training in addition to my walks and yoga. And lastly I need to work on getting more rest. I already do clean keto for diet.

You look terrific doc and I know you feel better. 😁💕

Well Presented and convincing presentation! I am in complete agreement with all of your researched findings. Great information for older adults following these findings and currently creating new loose skin!

I have been wondering about this. I lost the weight (~100 lbs.) as my Covid project, but at 74 and T2 diabetic have been pondering how to move forward to get rid of all the extra skin. Now I have a better idea of how to start. I'm a bit of a night owl so probably getting more and better sleep would be a good first step. I have no issue with fasting - my calorie intake is low and pretty high protein anyway at this point after the weight loss. So this was useful information. Thank you!

This is a Share on my Whatsapp status. Subscribed..! Thank you so much for so detailed information Doctor. I have learned a lot. I was skeptical that you'd cover all of it related to intermittent fasting. but you saved me tons of time looking for videos on those matters. PS. Theo, looks cute with "Her" babies.

I lost a few stone and wasn't overweight at all ( very tall and 195 pounds) When I intermittently fasted for 8 months I was amazed how it improved my heart problems. Unfortunately I had loose skin around my stomach and it was paper thin. Another year later and it has now completely gone.

Thank you for all this information. I really appreciate it. I have been 'out of the loop' for a long time, and looking to gain control of my health and my life again.

As a women, I gained 20kg (40pounds) during pregnancy 😂, after birthing, I had loose skin and texture. But lost 22kg (44pounds) of weight from breast feeding and reducing my intake. My skin shrunk back, within a year maybe six months. I didn't notice. And got my abs back too.

Another fantastic video 😊 thank you 😊

Contratulations to you and Theo on your Guinea pig family. They're super cute!

Dr fung had a patient named Robert. Guy lost 200lbs, no loose skin, the guy is in his 60s

This is the video I was waiting for

Thanks Doc. The hits just keep on coming!

Thanks for the info, super helpful.

I appreciate your time and energy that went into making this video, thank you so much

Love the message. It takes time. A lot of time. People are ready to throw in the towel after a month or two.

Thanks for another great video!

can't wait part 3

On my own fat loss journey, my loose skin responded best to fasting, and then ultimately I got the most tightening from going full carnivore while maintaining the 24 hr fasts (OMAD).

55 year-old male. I've been on Keto for almost exactly a year now. Lost 60lbs. 50 came off in the 1st 6 months. 5'10" and a muscular 165lbs now. Yup, I have some loose skin around my waist. Went from a 38" waist to 31". Fortunately, my arms and legs have almost zero loose skin. At my age, I see it as a 'fat tax' ;-) Wow, I feel healthier at 55 than I did at 35! Isn't that what really matters? It helps to know that there are options to put in the Knowledge Tool Chest. Thanks Doc!

You are fabulous. Amazing transformation. How long ago was that before picture taken? You look amazing.

Very good information source without background music or stupid drownings. So good to be free. Can't be lazy when hungry. And laziness was my problem :) thanks for the channel

I am 34 years old, weigh 355ib, and am 6'3"tall. I was overweight as a kid, stayed around 250ib as a teen, stayed around 290ib until 27, and have been between 350 to 380 until 34. I have been scared about loose skin. But am so fed up with being obeased. So i have atarted a fitness plan. Essentially I am workout out ever other day. Between workout I am doing a 36hr fast. On the days that I workout, I am consuming 1400cal thats higher in fat and protein but middle range of carbs. Hopefully my plan works. I will document and tr ack my progress.

I am 71 and a personal trainer and health coach. Doing a 36 hour 'fast' when I came across your channel. The quotation marks around the word fast is there because I do add some butter to keep energy levels high.I have never had any weight issues so diet has always been about energy and performance.I think as body fat goes down,the butter helps me get into ketosis faster. On eating days,my carbs fluctuate between 0 and 15% of calories so not a lot of glycogen to clear.When I was younger (20's to early 60's) I did strict water fasts and had lots of energy but now I seem to need a butter assist to achieve the same level of mental clarity and physical energy. Certainly looks like I will be sharing your videos with clients. Thank you 😊.

Thanks a lot! Great video.

Great job

Gosh your teachings are excellent! Excellent speaking skills !

yes dr jason fung . i heared his things 2 . i am still hearing many info on fasting and u got great info to some like his .

Great info. ❤🎉🎉

Very informative❤ thank you

Love the content! 2MAD and Keto have gotten me from 340 to 195 so far, over 8 years. With goal weight in sight, planning to transition to a WOE with carbs reintroduced. Think ADF. Will def be following for more. ❤

I love your presentation of information. You put it together perfectly When one of your new videos gets posted I STOP everything and soak up the knowledge. Thankyou ~🎃🎃🍁💥

I am a 67 old female, 5 feet and weighed 185+ pounds in 2021 I decided I needed to lose weight as I had blood clots , TIA ( mini stroke) pneumonia, asthma and many health conditions. I knew I probably wouldn’t be alive long being so obese , so I decided with the help of people to go vegan, hungry all the time, lost 55 lbs, but my skin on my belly arms and legs were awful 😣. I am now on basically a keto/carnivore lifestyle now. My calves are now tone and wrinkle free after only 4 months on carnivore and walking and stretching. I am 107 lbs now, my doctor doesn’t want me to loose anymore weight, but I like to tone and possibly have my skin tone a bit. I always looked younger than my age, but now that I lost the weight, my face has fallen down , I don’t look like the same person anymore. However, I did carry a lot of weight in my uppercut body and face. I been doing facial yoga , but I don’t think it’s helped 😂😢 I was thinking and wondering if I should fast for 36 hours? I would love to try ❤ Thank you for your informative facts un Autophagy, love how interesting you made this video, very interesting and great information 💯 Please can you do a video on how we can get rid of facial wrinkles. I am at a little above my target weight of 95-110.

This is so helpful, thank you! I always appreciate how clearly you break down the science for us. I’m interested in the kejo moto meter you use, but didn’t see the link & discount code in the description. Thanks again for helping us improve our health!

Congratulations on your weight loss! Thank you for your help

This was great. Autophagy is definitely catabolic but can be cycled. This is the first video I’ve seen that’s made me realize the importance of sleep as it relates to autophagy. I began fasting one day (36 hours) a week earlier this year but I’ve seen my sleep score improve all around and didn’t think it was related. Seeing this makes me wonder if it’s a virtuous cycle where good sleep or autophagy can help the other.

Thank you!!! I'm looking forward to part 3!!!

Good Video, Thanks for the info❤

Last year I lost about 20 pounds. I was consuming big quantities of bone broth as well as collagen powder. My skin actually became more elastic than it was before. I was amazed because i am 50 years old and I had loose skin and cellulite since I was a teenager! The only problem was that I didnt do enough strength training and I was probably not eating enough to gain muscle mass. So my skin was a little loose, like a deflated ballon. I was also feeling a little weak and eventually I lost my motivation and gained back the fat. Which is very unfortunate. I believe that if I had persisted with weight training and more protein etc, i would have seen great results. Thanks for this series, because this time I am already making better choises.

I’ve been doing OMAD for about a month now and it’s helped me a lot. My weight loss is moderate which is ok, the first couple of weeks I lost about 11lbs and it’s kind of slowing down so I’m assuming that was mostly water weight. I’m happy because I no longer have depression and anxiety, my breathing has gotten better (I didn’t even know I had an issue with breathing until I started doing this), I don’t crave alcohol anymore (I was a binge drinking and would binge drink every 1-2 weeks) on top of binge drinking I would binge eat from being hungover and I obviously don’t do that anymore, I just feel overall so much more happier and healthier and I don’t want to ever go back. Weight loss is just a bonus for me at this point even though I started this initially to lose weight. People get worried when I tell them I fast because they think fasting means starving yourself which isn’t at all true. Once I explain to them the benefits and all the research I’ve looked at plus show them my daily meal they realise I’m not crazy and I’m doing something good for myself 😅 I try to for daily walks, I completed a 15km walk over the weekend and could have kept going if it didn’t decide to storm out haha. Definitely the best decision I’ve made for myself and I’m looking forward to the future.

Oh my! Theo's story was fun to hear 😂😂😂

Good encouragement to keep going. Fasting is amazing

Hi Dr Frank . Just loved this podcast 👍 I’ve just started on keto 3mths ago and feel Brilliant! I do intermitting fasting everyday from 5pm - 1pm and do a 48hr fast once a week . I started at 72kgs and now weigh 66kgs . Am I going in the right direction. I eat 2meals a day . Would I loose more if I ate just one meal

This is a topic I am very interested in. About 4 years ago, I started IF and embarked on an overall healthier lifestyle, and lost over 60 pounds. As a result I have a significant amount of loose skin around my waist, butt and thighs, even though I am now a quite lean 174 pounds. I typically fast 17-18 hrs per day and I do vigorous exercise 3x per week, but I haven't seen any noticeable reduction on my loose skin. My goal is to do a 48 hour fast every month, but I find it extremely difficult to get past 20 hrs or so.

Good work!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 now go watch and learn as much as you can about getting into autophagy and loose skin & let your body use up the excess skin over time…

Great video 😊😊thank you

This is great info! I was obese until my 40s. Now I am maintaining 150lbs of weight loss throught diet and fasting and 3 years of maintaining I am still working on the skin. At the same time I am realizing that I may have issues with collagen already because of a connective tissue disorder. I have amazing results in my body with 3-4 day fast when it comes to skin.

Gasp! Our "boy" Guinea Pig had 2 babies! "He" was pre-pregnant and we ended up doubling our 2 piggies to 4. The bouncing babies are adorable ❤

I (38F) have been losing weight on a carnivore diet in conjunction with strenuous exercise 3-4 times per week (strength and cardio) and a weekly 72 hour fast (water only with no supplements). I am burning fat while adding muscle and have no loose skin. I also continue to see strength gains in the my lifting as well as speed and endurance gains in my running. One thing to keep in mind is that you only lose muscle when you're not using it or you run out of fat to burn (starvation). If you keep active while fasting, you will not lose any muscle. I continue to walk several miles a day while fasting, even hiking two miles on my third fasting day with no trouble. I started working into dry fasting last month and was able to dry fast for forty hours last week. I"m shooting for forty eight this week. Fasting truly is the most powerful health tool as it works to improve you physically, mentally, and spiritually.

❤ thank you for Sharing 😊

Also when I was growing up I noticed men who converted to the Nation of Islam started looking better and better as their journey continued. And you know healthy eating, fasting, exercise, discipline, prayer and meditation are all required in this religion. And the men are NEVER over weight and usually look 30 years younger than their actual age.

Where are all the before and after photos if autophagy is effective? I don't mean to be rude at all but this topic is a bit of a bugbear of mine. We're on RU-vid do there should be plenty of people with significant improvement in loose skin but it just doesn't look like there is. If anyone can post links to people with success I really would like to see them. I don't mean to be a downer (I'll be fasting myself) but I'm not convinced.

Oh wow! I lost 170 pounds and somehow have very little loose skin. A very minimal amount on my lower stomach and a bit on my thighs. I thought I just lucked out and also I’m quite young with playing into skin elasticity. but now I know that the fasting helped

I just came across your video and thank you so much for sharing your wisdom! I’m not overweight which is why i am concerned, my AC1 current results are 5.7 which places me in a prediabetic stage and my cholesterol was high 237, w/LDL being high. I was very upset at my results, but I do come from a diabetic family. So I’ve decided to lower my ac1 without any prescribed medications. I’ve started berberine. I also kinda fast 15/9. But I’m very interested in fasting correctly and going into autophagy. I eat healthy lots of veggies and chicken. I am not a carnivore (red meat, nor pork) so not sure how i can do keto diet, plus I don’t want to increase my cholesterol. I will continue to watch your other videos. I am interested in reducing/eliminating some loose skin, maybe lose a few more pounds, I’m 5’3” 122 lbs, 54 yrs old. And i do exercise. Thank you so much for all your information you provide to all of us!

This worked for me ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9vVBci01C64.html I like some of the transitions, but sometimes they're a bit too much and are seemingly random. Since we use these persistent elements that transition across pages to indicate some kind of relationship between the previous and the next states, some of your transitions confuse me because I can't immediately see what the relationship is. For example 2:23 of the selectable tiles (which weren't selected) transition into being two switches... does that mean anything? are they related in some way? I see this as random and a bad use of the design language. However, at 1:14 I like the transition from switches to the ticks on a paper, that makes sense to me. Epic presentation tho

Thank you!

Thank you so much.

Interesting video. Thank you. I will watch part 1 as well. The benefits of fasting had been long known. You seem to be in favour of keto. I’ve done a lot of research on diets and I’m not in favour of keto but fasting definitely has benefits. I’m glad you’ve been successful with your weight loss loss. 👍

Brilliant THANK YOU !! I've been wondering about this, I put on a lot of hypothyroid, menopause & stress weight (cortisol & insulin resistance) in past few years mostly on torso & boobs, so uncomfy. I was a carb-addict but been low carb for quite a while now, & a few months edging towards now nearly carnivore, just occasional avocado, sometimes brazil & pecan & walnuts, sauerkraut, chinese leaf & mackerel, or half a peeled sliced cucumber (being careful about oxylates as I had some symptoms), natural yoghurt, herb tea, stevia drops..some reduction in ankle edema but not much change in goiter or skin issues or weight.. I've also been edging to intermittent fasting, currently on 2 or 1 meal a day, but generally in evening. I realise lots of timing & menu, stress, sleep, exercise, breathing etc elements to work on improving. I had got to conclusion that autoophagy best way to lose the weight & avoid loose skin etc, I wouldnt be willing to cope with surgery for that but realise it can be a serious issue.. so am very grateful to learn about autophagy here, & more about fasting, which i still find very daunting. Recently been recommended that women's hormones require some different accommodations for fasting & to read Fast Like A Girl by Dr Mindy Pelz. Barbara O'Neill recommends HIIT exercising over other kinds.. & we are all different.. feels such a minefield, & being advised to check with one's doctor is a joke here in UK, unless a private functional doc, or a chiropractor, acupuncturist etc most of them haven't a clue, & certainly not specialist info like autophagy

I paused my weight loss last year to give my skin a chance to catch up with my weight loss. But what I got is staying overweight with loose skin. So I have started a long fast to reach autophagy. 53 hours into my fast and I’m within a kilo from last years level. Not feeling terribly hungry. The salt and the espresso ☕️ helped

warrior fasting, sounds really cool

thanks for giving an overview with science on this topic. you also mentioned dr. fung. i watched a lot of his videos. i remember him saying and showing graphs from science that no or just a tiny bit of lean mass is used at the very beginning of fasting, then the body switches to fat. he also explaines the evolutuonary viewpoint: it would be stupid for the body to get rid of muscles as he needs them to get new food. so i dont believe in getting scared of loosing muscles as long as i have fat ;)

Glad someone is talking about it. I was horrified Changed to no processed food no sugar etc. I’m now fully carnivore My aim was never to lose weight. However I quickly did. As I intermittent fasted as well I was diagnosed with lung nodules so had a vested interest in healing. With the diet I got rid of the cancerous nodules. Also lost 24kg in double quick time. I’ve never been fat or overweight so now I’m 56 kg the same as when I was 18 n dancing professionally in the ballet To my horror I now have crinkled loose skin everywhere aaargh My face looks great but the body skin is not. Any helpful advice is welcome. Just heard dr bright the carnivore doc saying eat more fat. So I will Any experiences from the listeners here?

Ok so far I’ve watch 2 videos of yours. And both included studies and trials. Just by that you gained a sub. Im a researcher by interest and not by trade. Just because im a nerd who loves to see info. I research EVERYTHING!!! Bc I would rather waste my time gaining knowledge rather than wasting my time and money for something that isn’t gonna work. Or just blindly going into something with hopes of it MAY working. Whatever ‘IT’ is… I wanna know if it’s backed with info if it’s gonna work or not.

I learned IF thanks to my husband! Who did it to win a weight loss challenge at work! He won! And thanks to Dr Mindy Pelz I learned to do FLAG (Fast Like A Girl) also title of her book and she also wrote The Menopause Reset! It makes so much sense to me to fast with my cycle and also for diet and exercise! I lost 25 pounds in 6 months! Our hormones play a big role! Now I’m more interested in autophagy!
