I was 380lbs, and in 7 months in down to 255 cutting most to all carbs, going mostly carnivore, and water and coffee only fasting for up to seven days. I went from a useless lump of fat that couldn't walk anywhere or work for over 4 years to being a hard worker and athletic again. I went from so much inflammation and spinal compression that i couldn't be on my feet for 10 minutes without his legs going totally numb to a person who just spent an entire day climbing ladders and painting a gymnasium for a local school. I went from telling my kids i couldn't play with them to playing soccer with them. This has totally transformed my life, and the lives of my kids as well. I was a walking heart attack a month or two from death when i started. I could barely make it to the bathroom in time anymore, I couldn't stay awake and fell asleep any time i sat down (even driving a mile to the post office or grocery store) and i let my entire life degrade to the point death was almost welcomed. I fail constantly at this. I've even given up several times. I ate half a lemon bundt cake in two days, followed by chocolate chip cookies afterwords just a week ago. Today I'm on day 3 of a water and coffee fast trying to undo the problems it caused. He's right. Do not ever give up. Ever. Treat it like a life or death situation and keep walking forward. If you can't walk, crawl. Don't give up because you fell, just do it one more time. Then one more time again. Then one more time again. Don't focus on the goal at the end, focus on forcing yourself to take one more step in the direction of that goal. The goal is nothing more than the arrow on the compass. A point to give you direction. Don't tell yourself "only ten more to go". Tell yourself "just one more step" over and over and over.

Thanks so much for sharing! I’ve been so discouraged lately! I’m addicted to sweets. But tomorrow is another day and I’m going to keep fighting! Thanks and good luck to you❤️

@BIGGELATO 3 месяца назад

I was 426 in october 5th 2023, my heaviest was 429. Since then, I quit bread, cookies, and cake since, and dropped 40lbs since. But I'm only down 40 lbs since because I reintroduced coffee into my life, which for me to drink it requires a tsp of either sugar or honey, with creamer, butter and salt. Unfortunately, a close one recommended me to use honey instead, now we both regret it, and it's been hell for me since. It made me addicted to it, I've had about 10 kilos of honey in the past couple months, if not more... About 3-4 TSPs a day (3-4 coffees a day, sometimes 6). When I don't have any, it feels like drug withdrawals, and my sides hurt, and I have this drop in my mood and feel horrible, like some sort of anxious depression.. Quitting sugar was easier than honey. I'm guessing because honey has fructose and fructose is like a fkn steroid-heroin-cocaine drug mix for my brain. As we speak, I have a small cup of coffee, and a cup of tea sitting next to each other. I'm so disappointed in myself dude, fkn hell man.

@crisnevin7934 3 месяца назад

@BIGGELATO it's a perfectly valid way to feel. That's normal. The hard part is putting that behind you. You are right. Sugar, in general, is a drug. And comes with withdrawal symptoms. Sometimes, there are severe symptoms. And why they're not recognized by whatever association does that I don't understand. Headaches, dizziness, tremors, loss of consciousness, extreme fatigue, sleeplessness, mood swings from hell, nausea, malaise, and just general misery are some of what I made it through. It sounds like an AA meeting. When I started to figure it out, it was watching a video about how sugars activate the same regions of the brain as cocane and meth. That's when I figured out the addiction is real, and honestly, I believe it is extremely widespread, just not known about yet. I believe you may be on to something there about honey, too. Though I wonder if maybe it doesn't last as long as refined sugars and therefore needs to be taken more often? The important part is acknowledge the failure, pack it away in the trash bag we call yesterday, and pick one way, just one way, one thing that you decide you will succeed at today, even if you fail all other things. Pick one thing today that you decide hell and high water can not stop you from achieving. If you have to, pick the same thing every day until it's gone and you are free to pick something else. Just one thing, just one day. Just put your head down and your shoulders into it, and decide that no matter what, you're going to push through. I still fail. But I also succeed.

@crisnevin7934 3 месяца назад

@1971_happylifedog how did it go today? It's OK to fail. It happens. It's normal to feel discouraged from time to time. Don't let the fact that you do feel discouraged make you feel worse. You can do this. You can do this because you have a reservoir of awesome inside you that is bottomless! And it's OK to tap into it as much as you want. It's not easy, it's not fun, it doesn't feel good right away. But it gets better, and the rewards are great! Remember, don't measure the distance to your goal, it's too far away. Don't tell yourself only 1 mile to go. Don't say "just one more day". Say "take one more step" then say "take one more step" again. Then again. And when your brain says "I can't" you tell it "shut up, you can, and you will." And it'll shut up for a while, and you'll realize that yes, you can. You know what? I'm not actually concerned with how today went. What I really want to know is, how will tomorrow go? I hope it was a great day, but I want tomorrow to be great. And that's up to you. You're awesome, make tomorrow a great day!

@@crisnevin7934 I just finished watching The Sugar Film, it made me pour my full cup of tea down the drain, and delete a bunch of social media stuff such as Pinterest boards (foods, sweets), anything that can influence me. And saw a few interviews and videos that helped me make a decision, and funny enough, it's the same "quote/saying" I used to quitting smoking 7 years ago; change your identity, not your habits. Tell yourself you don't relate to smoking and stop smoking. It's been 7 years, and although close folks still smoke, they still can't believe I'm over it, and never had one since. Also, smelling second hand smoke is revolting to me now. But ya, ill try this again and see. It's always more motivating to hear others cheer you up, rather than trying to find willpower in things all the time. Sometimes all we need is a simple boost from one another.

@Medietos 3 года назад

Maybe (probably) you are malnourished in the minerals from vegetables, do you eat them a lot? cooked? because the soils today are so depleted of nutrients compared to 100 years ago. We need to eat more vegs daily. You might have toxic metals too, we all do. Hair tissue mineral analysis of Dr l. Wilson recommended.(although his healing program is demanding)

@SandyCheeks63564 2 года назад

@@Medietos Thanks for the idea of malnourishment driving his addiction. Interesting. As Dr Berry wisely suggested in another video, instead of the expensive tests, try the harmless remedy. If it works, you know it was the correct hypothesis without the expensive testing. We all can't afford elective medicals such as the above. Half of us in the US don't even have insurance.

@SandyCheeks63564 2 года назад

As Claudia said you may be lacking real nutrients. Do you eat Lots of vegs? Do you supplement? We all need extra magnesium, zinc, potassium (we have a very high recommendation 4,700 mg a day), D3 with MK7 for proper calcium absorption. And chlorella (also cilantro the delicious herb) for chelating heavy metals so your body can excrete them. And if you are well nourished with vits & minerals, maybe you can just settle for having some stevia. I've gotten used to it to be honest. How long have you been doing keto? I'm starting to feel less addicted, but it's been about 6 months for me. I cheated many times around my birthday & Christmas and was hard to get back on the wagon, but I was determined because I don't want to be ill and on pills driving my body crazy for my last several decades.

I found quitting sugar incredibly difficult without consciously removing carbs as well. The glucose roller coaster of carbs, particularly processed carbs and high carb veg, make it very challenging to overcome to sugar lows without resorting to sugar fixes.

@Medietos 2 года назад

Emily M: How does your brain get its (body-made) glucose then? To me, it's a mystery how anyone can live without complex carbohydrates from whole, gluten-free grains. I definitely get sugar addiction crazes if I don't get my whole-grain Millet, Brown rice, Buckwheat, Oat and Quinoa and eat big meals 3x a day. Different constitutions. Processed/ white/refined carbs are said to behave like sugar in the body, so it is no surprise if it triggers you. but do well-chewed (soaked and cooked) gluten-free whole-grain also effect sugar lows and - fixes? Be well.

@emilymunton9978 2 года назад

@@Medietos Hi Claudia. I’m not an expert but I have seen some videos in this community on gluconeogenisis - the creation of glucose by liver. This process creates a more appropriate level of glucose as required for our body to function optimally without over stimulating insulin. Hope this helps. I have been mostly carnivore for about 18months and am now on day 6 of only animal products (meat and some feta - no honey). I am feeling great but it has been a long journey slowly removing things. This latest choice has come as an attempt to overcome hunger. Whenever I eat things like blueberries or xylitol with cream cheese, I always struggle with not feeling satiated. Eating only meat definitely helps with eating a more appropriate volume of food per day and feeling satiated as opposed to not.

Perfect timing Dr Berry! Artificial sweeteners have been a problem lately. More natural and raw sugars have been really questionable. Butter has been helpful. ACV helps a bit. I just tiny-harvested my first two giant jars of broccoli sprouts this morning. A lot of good fish and meat in the freezer - upstaged by junk for a couple of months. All out of lame excuses. Godspeed everyone.

@allthethings09 3 года назад

I actually crave MORE sweets when I include keto treats, it doesn't satisfy anything. Water seems to be the only thing that helps, but I have to be drinking it all day. What's ironic is that ANY sweeteners make me extremely bloated within minutes. Great video!

thank you for sharing that about the addiction to sweetness vs pure sugar. As someone who had a major food addiction and eating disorder, what I discovered on my path of freedom was that it wasn't the food or the sugar I was addicted to but the effect that those foods produced. (i.e. an internal state of ease, comfort, reward, pleasure, distraction, etc ) Once I got free from what was driving me to food in the first place and developed the capacity to cultivate a sense of ease and comfort internally without needing food, the food problem just went away. That was over a decade ago. Thank you for this informative video and for the important work you do!

@javonne2561 2 года назад

Daily intermittent fasting + keto works best for me. I have gradually progressed to 20:4 (4 hr eating window). It really reduces cravings and helps keep insulin/ blood sugars more stable. I make sure I eat nutrient dense food with adequate protein, veggies and supplements every day. Also awareness of my triggers and making a point of having my last such and such has helped me with this transition giving up refined sugars and keeping carbs low. I really overdid the sugar in my life and this was a tremendous challenge. At this point sugar-laden foods make me feel tired and achy, and I believe I have a fatty liver which I’m trying to reverse, so I know how much better off I am without. I still use keto sweeteners, but with 20 hour fasts my cravings are mostly emotional, I physically don’t want sugar like I used to.

@lucassamsmusic 6 месяцев назад

Over the past year and a half Ive gone from 339 to 240 pounds. I could barely do any of the lifts at the gym when I started and i’ve gained about 20 pounds of muscle. My goal is 190 and the only thing that’s holding me back is once every few weeks I end up on a sugar binge for a few days and then i feel like garbage for two weeks. Everyone told to just use artificial sweeteners but I believe you’re 100% right here. It just keeps that craving around and eventually you go back to the sugar. Getting rid of all of it and just going to eliminate it from here on out.

Beef broth blended with some kerrygold butter works like magic!

I've been on-and-off keto multiple times since but sugar(or sweeteners) is the only thing that I never come back to. 90-95% cocoa chocolate is the only treat that I occasionally consume and it's delicious and perfectly satisfying. What's crazy is that once you've weaned yourself off of sugar sweet things taste so sickly that you don't even want to think about eating(or drinking) them.
