@christinecortese9973 4 года назад

One thing I find interesting is the assumptions made about women over 60 being less inclined to change. My observation as someone hurtling through my 60s at breakneck speed is that people remain largely as they were when younger, despite the body aging. I’ve just sold one home, moved into my former rental, and am traveling multi-state looking or my next home. I don’t have time to get “old.” It’s stasis that ages people.

@susieinthecountry4434 4 года назад

very glad that you are breaking the rules and changing the meaning of "old". Those old models for age need to be shattered and show younger people a new model of how to look and feel in the future (even if they are not interested in it).

@gratefulketo2211 4 года назад

Why would people even question if intermittent fasting is good for women over 60? We are not a subspecies that is not human! Fasting is good for most everyone so long as you do not have any underlying medical conditions that would prevent it. At 67, when I listen to my "health coaches" on RU-vid, I automatically assume that they are including me in their advice.

@lizd46 4 года назад

I'm 70 and have been IF for a couple of years. I started out eating my regular diet (standard American) but transitioned to keto and now keto-vore. I find IF very easy. My usual is 17 hours fasting but I do an occasional longer fast and find it very doable. I wasn't terribly obese but my weight is down probably 50 pounds from my heaviest several years ago. I work out at least 5 days a week and feel great.

@jda58tex 4 года назад

I will be 62 in August. I have been practicing IF since 2017. I started with a 16/8 window and now I do 20/4 with a 24 hour fast once a week. Occasionally, I will do a 32 or 36 hour fast. Besides Keto, this is one of the best things I've ever done for myself. I love it, it's easy, and I just can't imagine going back to eating 3 times a day. A few years ago when they said we should be eating 3 meals and 3 snacks, I tried it a few days and it was torture. I was constantly having to think about food and what I was going to eat and when. IF is so much easier. And, it's flexible. If something comes up and I'm invited to dinner (I generally do breakfast/lunch) I go and eat and just make adjustments the next day. You create your own timing for what works best for you. I highly recommend.

@susieinthecountry4434 4 года назад

yes to all your thoughts. My sister freaks out when I say I fast on Monday. I'm a slow weight loser. Now that you mention it when eating the SAD diet that's all one is thinking about is is food. Now I have to ask myself if I'm hungry or not. She will be surprised at how I look when I see her again (who knows when that will be with this virus). Many in my family don't like the idea of the food police which apparently they think I am. So I have found what works for me♥

I'll be 65 in a couple of weeks and just love IF. I started with 16:8 and moved to OMAD and now I am doing Alternate Day Fasting. This is the easiest way of eating I have ever practiced. The weight is coming off, I don't feel deprived at all, my appetite is great, I'm not hungry and cravings are practically non-existent. I sleep better, have more energy and feel stronger than I have in a very long time. I thank God that I discovered this. I won't ever go back to three squares and snacks. I don't count calories either...I don't feel a need to. It's my new lifestyle and I believe I will age better and live longer and healthier because of it.

This study helps confirm IF as perhaps the mainstay that is most important. Thanks. You guys are great.

Am 62 and had been doing IF for several years - it held my weight but I could never loose what I'd put on during perimenopause. What finally did the trick was making Monday a liquid day (protein smoothie in the morning, 'gloopy' soup at lunchtime, berry juice in the afternoon and soup again in the evening). Tues and Wed then became my IF days off the back of that - 16/8. The rest of the week I ate normally but watched portion size - but gradually gave up wheat and sugar including alcohol and, sadly, coffee

I do keto, IF (somewhat) and lost 30 lbs relatively fast. However, what’s changed the most for me is that I look much slimmer and my clothes fit better (or loosely). My issue is that I have inertia and am chained to my computer (for my career s(writer/cyber artist/ telephone psychic advisor). I havent touched sugar or processed food for over 20 years. I’ve been in an eating disorders recovery group for years and it has given me a huge amount of useful wisdom about refraining from compulsive eating. (I’m in remission from it.) I do Pilates at home to RU-vid vids but need to get out and walk more. Still, I look pretty hot in tight jeans and fitted shirts. What motivates me is fashion. I’m just happy to be lookin’ good and still getting compliments for the way I dress, wherever I go. Fashion’s my passion…not fancy or fussy, but yeah I like subtle accessories. Keto and IF have helped keep me stylin’. I don’t need to be skinny but Im going to get back to weights and walking more.

Last night (Buenos Aires) I started the fasting plan. I want to lose about 5 kilograms (11 pounds). What most strikes me is that they have clarified that the loss of muscle "mass" is not directly and exclusively linked to diet. A "healthy" diet will help keep the body's tissues in good condition (muscle, kidney, or whatever). Do not incorporate drugs if they are not strictly necessary and sleep well, etc. But adipose tissue is a reserve tissue in all mammals. Let's remember the bears that hibernate, many spend long periods without being able to hunt (forced fasting and at that time they use their reserve tissue = adipose tissue to survive well). - Metabolism decreases during hibernation (there is no food = to hibernate!). If that situation consumed the muscle tissue, they would not be able to get up when they woke up. But of course, a total fast for a long time will end up collapsing the muscle cells as well. It's all a matter of measurement and species-specific metabolism (and individual differences between different people).

Thank you for keeping your audience up-to-date on research. I have practiced intermittent fasting for several years now. I cannot seem to lose the fat in abdomen. I eat low carb. I am not overweight and I am not exaggerating the fat distribution in my abdomen. Any ideas?

I would really like to know your view on the Carnivore diet. I’m trying to get as much information on this diet before diving into it. I prefer views from Dr oppose to those sharing their wonderful outcomes w/NO medical experience. Thanks for all you do.

Hi docs, I tried to download the fasting booklet, but the link to enter email did not show up. I hope you can fix that and I'll check back in a day or two. Thanks for all your great info!

@susanfindell6154 Год назад

I was a sugar addict. For almost 2 weeks I’ve been eating a low carb, healthy fat diet with about a 15-9 IF. My issue is I’m not overweight. Although I do have more body fat than I would like. I’m 60 , I weigh 111lbs. and I’m 5’3”. I started this lifestyle because I was tired of being a slave to sugar and I want to be healthier with less inflammation. I also have Parkinson’s. I imagine my body will get rid of my excess fat, while keeping the muscle, and will go into “maintenance mode”so I don’t lose too much weight. Dr. Becky, you said in previous videos that you were overweight. Now that you’ve lost body fat you still continue eating and fasting this way. You don’t stop this lifestyle when you reach your goal, right? I know I’m in the minority not needing to loose weight necessarily, but thin doesn’t mean healthy .

Great to hear of a study focused on women in their 60s! I've done keto for 15 months (Keith's carbs, not Becky's!) and 16/8 IF for a year. I love both, but only lost 15 lbs when I first discovered IF. Can't figure out why no loss in 9 months and can find no research related to it. My family thinks I'm crazy to stay in keto & IF, but I feel great except for the excess weight. 😁🤪

@karliann1 4 года назад

Are you eating a caloric deficit? I track my calories and make sure to never go over.

@cherylbridges4510 4 года назад

@@karliann1 Great question. I was initially (and figured later that I have most of my life). Then I started tracking macros religiously. That plus IF was how I lost 15 lbs last fall.

@cherylbridges4510 4 года назад

@@stacybb3943 Interesting. I have gone as much as an 18/6 window, but haven't tried 20/4 since I'm the family cook 😁 My metabolism is super slow, so it makes sense to extend the window. I'll give that a try. Sounds as though you do IF everyday and you don't track macros. I read that it's good to mix up IF windows, so stopped being so exact about my first meal time. That may also be where I got off track.

I'm 44yrs old and hypothyroid so I couldn't lose weight before only gain. I realize my body can't do too many carbs.

I'm 62 and have been doing the 16 or 18 hr IF pretty easily for the past few months (since the pandemic started). But whenever I try to stretch it out to longer fasts, I can suffer from extreme brain fog. Weight is coming off slowly.

@lynnann96 4 года назад

70 yo here. I've been 16/8 IFing for several months and it's feels like a very natural way for me to eat. (have always been unable to eat much before 10am anyway.) What's started to happen is that I wake up with a upset stomach lately. I take carba-levodopa for PD three times a day. I drink 12 oz of lemon water immediately when I get out of bed, but it doesn't really help. I usually wait until 10:30 to 11:30 to break the fast each day. I'm not sure what to do. I've lost 14lbs and need to lose another 30. I really want this lifestyle to work.

@PrincessMimi214 Год назад

I'm 39 and i have PD as well. I've been doing IF for 2 years now. Recently, I've done 4 days of water fast, and I feel great! I have mental clarity. My c/l lasts longer than before. I'm supposed to take c/l 5 times a day. But since I've done the line fasts I've been only needing to take 3 or sometimes 2 pills a day. I've been on a healthy keto semi Mediterranean diet which definitely helps. Cutting down on carbs is very good for my brain functionality

I am just turning 65 and have been fasting since at least my teens. People used to actually get mad at me for not eating! Never cared for breakfast. I exercise regularly and thankfully have no aches or pains. My window of eating is a few hours a day. I stay away from sugar but my weakness IS cheese and Ranch Doritos! :D Well, none of us are perfect! LOL'

@lmcburney 4 года назад

It would be interesting to know if the 25 women fasting were working or not working outside the home or if they got to choose the 8 hour window to work around their jobs. I wonder if they stuck to 3 meals or if they skipped breakfast which would reduce their calories in a day and help them stay in the 8 hour eating window.

@paintedlady55 3 года назад

Hi. I have been following the 16/8 regime for a number of years now. I have just turned 66 years old. It isn't difficult to follow and if you 'cheat' every now and again, so what? I have lost two stone in that time. I will say, it is really important to cut out as much of as you can, of processed sugar in all of its hidden forms. This is not always easy for us sugar addicts. However, if I can do it anyone can.

Where do you recommend to get the calories/macros that I should be using? I’ve been on Keto for 4 months but only lost 8# and need to lose 10 more. I feel I am fat adapted. I fast 18:6 and 2 meals a day. I test my urine every morning and show between small and moderate. I can’t exercise due to having Dystonia. Could you give me some advice on how to lose more? CM and MFP says for me to eat 1100 for a 20% deficit.

I’m 69 at the end of the month. I do IF and keto. Started on March 16 this year and have lost 36lbs so far. I walk 2-3 miles, 3-4 times a week. My goal is to loose 30 more lbs. It can be done. However, I find I don’t like most of the vegetables suggested for this diet. Not really a salad person either. I’m considering carnivore.
