This is Why Your Favorite Influencers are Quitting Keto 

I am a diabetic so living Keto is not just a diet, it is my life. I have been able to drop my A1c from 11 down to 7. I don't really care about the weight so much but I care about the low carb. Thank you

Keto has saved my life, I was 341 lbs and I have lost 152 lbs in the last 23 months and I am almost 60 years old, it works, I am glad y’all are producing videos, keep smiling.

I am Keto at 80 years old. I have been on it for 3 years. I feel great and still do everything that I did decades ago. I will be on it until I leave this world. I live in Hawaii and have for over 30 years. I really love you guys Aloha from Haleiwa!

You two are a godsend and are the most authentic, real “influencers” I’ve ever come across. I appreciate you so much being real people.

I totally dumped keto. I wasn’t losing weight. I was still inflamed. I still had high blood pressure that I needed medication for, and the list goes on. I switched to carnivore last May. My BP is 111/68 without medication, no inflammation, no allergies, and I’m under 200 for the first time in about 30 years. I mainly eat high fat and meat, but I concentrate on fat. I am a new woman at basically 60.

Hard relate to this. Almost feels like this video is about me. In my case I never wanted to be a RU-vidr let alone a Keto one because I started in 2011 and there was no Keto then. I was a heavy metal cooking channel that I did for fun to share my food and music. Fast forward I realized it was too much work in 2015 and just made single camera videos when I had time. I tried the Keto diet and was so impressed by turning cauliflower into pizza that I had to upload that and share it. Next thing you know I'm getting 10x the views and comments that I ever did. I tried vegan, vlogs and tons of things but the audience kept wanting Keto and so I followed that because for me I just want my content to reach more people and I was living the Keto lifestyle as best I could. But I love food, I'm a foodie and I did Keto for weight loss so at some point I realized it wasn't sustainable for me. Keto as a trend as well started to decline in 2019 or so. While there were more people doing Keto than ever before not all of them were looking for new recipes or to try different foods. For many once they had their initial set of basic recipes and foods that was good enough. Plus tons more Keto products in the market so the need to cook and make everything from scratch was gone. I didn't want to disappoint my audience (which I'd already done by quitting Keto) so I continue to make Keto recipes and try and find a balance. Finally last year I realized I just needed to follow a new path but you are right, it's hard when you've got a massive subscriber base that is pretty dead. I meet so many people who tell me they used to watch my videos when they were Keto and once they stopped Keto they stopped watching. That's the other side of it. The audience themselves don't all sustain the diet and once they are off it they aren't watching Keto channels anymore. With nearly 700k subs maybe I should have started a new channel but I never had KETO in my name. All I can think and the approach I can take is give 100% this year to whatever I'm doing and maybe it all works out eventually. 700k subs is a lot but it's only a fraction of 7 million right? So know knows. I think cooking videos have also evolved and that old format isn't as popular as the new wave of cooking channels. Anyway that's a bit about my experience. I think you two are doing a fantastic job. More power to you!

I will not stop the keto lifestyle because I feel so good.

Ladies I'm glad y'all are just being yourselves. I actually started keto during the pandemic as a way to take control of my life and diet and your channel has been a huge influence to helping me lose and maintain over 100 pounds of weight. It sucks other creators jump off the boat but at this point I'm creating my own recipes more often than finding what others are doing on their platforms. Y'all and other creators gave me the tools to be successful in my ketogenic lifestyle.

Serious Keto, Steve, also has his share of haters. All You Tube creators have the "crazies". Some people are just so shallow. I follow keto channels because I feel I belong. I don't have anyone close to me to share my gratitude to the diet for my new found good health. Or anyone interested in the science behind the bad effects of eating bad oils, sugar, and processed carbs. So I share this part of me with keto creators. And I greatly appreciate being on the same boat with you two crazy girls. Thanks for sharing with us and putting yourselves out there. Always know there are at least 10 times more people liking you than being jerks. We just don't always have something to say.💜

Keto without eating processed foods has saved my health!

My plan is to be a lifer. After almost 3 years I’m so used to it and don’t give it much thought anymore. My body just functions better on keto.

I continue it because it helped me with my health. Most Keto channels move to food hauls, What I eat in a day or making or mimicking sweet treats or fake breads. I do clean Keto for my health and for my new lifestyle. great video ladies.

I was a diabetic and because of keto it reversed, you don't know how many lives you can change by continuing your channel. It's my first time viewing your channel.

I love your channel. This diet has helped me to lower my A1C and is keeping me off medication. Please don't stop.

I am a 69 y.o.woman. I love watching your videos. You are wonderful, genuine and true. Thank you.

Watching your videos and becoming keto has literally saved my eyesight and my life! I love both of your channels. They're inspirational, informational and a great niche. Also how DARE You not wear fake eyelashes....wha? that's so weird. I'd rather someone be themselves than someone who is faking who they are. Ya'll have great personalities, are beautiful, intelligent and are just honest people. Thank you for your channels.

Your channel helped me break free of the idea that there is just one way to do Keto "right". I love that so much!

I love that all of your videos are short! I don't have much time and you two get to the point instead of dragging out the information. You are appreciated and so glad to see that you are successful. I am close to my goal and you are so reassuring that it is attainable and not a real struggle (although it may be a while).

I love seeing all these people saying they are new at 60 or 50 or whatever,, i too am turning 60 this year and been on keto for 3.5 weeks and i can honestly say i feel better at 60 then i did in all of my 50's.. it works,, no pain at all.. i had so much pain and was like is this what its like to turn 60? NOOOO it doesn't have to be... thank you to both of you, i love you guys and watch all the time now, i haven't been able to watch them all but i'll try ...

I guess not enough moms taught “If you can’t say something nice, say nothing at all.” Such an easy, kind way to behave. Anyway, you girls are great and have been a big help to me. Keep making videos and I will watch them all. ❤

"Do you even realize you're talking to a real person?" I love that!

I appreciate this channel. I don't even consider myself as doing "keto." I tried exercise and caloric restrictions and stuck to it AND not only didn't lose weight...but gained. I felt terrible all the time. Found your channel. Cut carbs way down. Cut added sugars to almost nothing. I previously suffered for over 3 decades from debilitating migraines and horrible periods. Started this late June after the worst migraine of my life. I actually think I may have had a wheat allergy or sensitivity because I have not had a migraine since and periods have not been that bad. I feel so much better AND I am down 46lbs, which is over halfway to my original goal! Thankful the algorithm sent you my way! I plan on keeping this up and hope you ladies do, as well! Also, gardener here! I'd really like to know more about that snazzy grow tower! It looks amazing!

😂I find fake lashes a distraction! Love your channel. Thanks for the good content that always makes me smile. Happy New Year!

I did not find keto until Feb of 2022. During the pandemic and lockdowns, I was working full time from home, so had no time to watch RU-vid. I got started with researching how to reverse my T2 Diabetes. I found some medical people who put me on to Keto, but then I needed some recipes. I found SO many channels. I am down to about 4 or 5 that I regularly watch. You guys are my favorite. You are real, and not afraid to show the mistakes. I came for the Keto, stayed for the humor!

Keto/low carb helped me lose 80lbs. I am no longer keto. I lift wgts 4 days a week plus do cardio & have upped my protein/carbs & lowered my fat...have maintained my 80lb loss for 3 yrs & have lost inches since lifting. I feel better eating this way & look better. I like y'all.

I love all your content, but mostly because I love your personalities. Thank you for all your hard work! Hope you all have an awesome 2023 ❤

The holidays (this year) was the death 💀 of my 2year keto journey. I basically quit from the middle of October (starting a 3 week fall in the Midwest vacation) to now. Once the non-keto foods were reintroduced over that time - I literally lost control of my carb cravings & just went with it. Results? Gained 19 pounds 😢 & the carb cravings were wicked 🧙‍♀️. So, I’m back to keto. It’s just what works for me. Glad you are still here! 😊 🎉Happy New Year!

I love you both 💕 Your voice, content, and honesty are great to me 🥰🥰

Bringing all the truth, all the keto, and all the entertainment- what more could we ask for?

thank you! I love your videos. I do keto on my rheumatologist's recommendation. So, a by product is losing about 40lb since I started 5 years ago. I've kept the weight off to a degree...went back to carbs the last 6 months and gained 10 lbs. Went from size 2 to a size 4. (I'm 5'4") now I'm back on keto for 2 weeks and I love it, my inflammation has really flared up with the carbs. It truly is a lifestyle.

I love you two! You speak truth. You tell it like it is. You’re up front about being technically keto and your content and “talks” reflect that. You’re also fun and funny! Keep up the great content. I hope you are encouraged to keep going for those of us who NEED you in our keto world when life is tough. When I’ve been down it’s your videos that have encouraged me to keep going. I love it that you don’t put out there an all or nothing approach - just keep going and doing our best. I love the 70% clean keto approach and the rest technically keto. It has helped me enjoy life and food. Thank you!!

Great video. I can't believe the eyelash comment. What a weirdo. LOL. You guys are great and I agree with what you've said. I guess the thing I don't enjoy is when creators use quitting (or "Am I Quitting Keto?") as clickbait. That's basically when I decide I'm done with a creator. Keep up the good work and do what works for you.

I applaud you two! Keep on being yourselves as that is what makes you fun to watch! Your content is great!

I don't comment very often but I do appreciate your honesty your integrity either genuineness too many people are fake they are basically actors You are just putting your real life out there and videoing as you living it I appreciate it Love you bunches and keep it up

I tend to be an all-or-nothing person at times to a fault, because I often quit things when I can’t do them perfectly. I love that you two just keep it casual! Such a relief for those of us who are rule-followers by nature. It helps me keep going with this lifestyle that I KNOW makes me feel so much better when I stick to it. Thank you for just being yourselves. I need more friends like you in my life❤❤

I tried every diet you can possibly think of, but Keto really works for me. I'm not struggling on it. I just started Keto January 2nd. I feel like I could be on this diet for life. I'm grateful to have found your channel. Thank you for having a Keto channel for all of us who are newbies on Keto.

I’m doing keto for health purposes not to lose weight and it really works for me ..I got rid of my migraine ..but I’m doing the right keto ..eating more organic leafy vegetables, grass fed meat and fruits that very less sugar and healthy nuts.

Emily and Sarah, Thank you for your support. Keto/Carnivore diet was made for me. I'm 60+ years old and been on every diet plan that has failed. Sugar and Grain is my enemy and I need healthy Fats to prevent me from being hungry.

Hey, the reason I started watching you guys was because you are being just you and I've stayed because of that and your content.Keep it up!😁

I am coming back to Keto because I know it works and going off leads ME to many months of “starting again on Monday” and weight gain and feeling like crap. Love both your channels. Thanks for what you do. Tired of purists and haters.

I love you guys. You make me smile. I really like that you do these videos in your regular kitchen. I also like that Emily brings supplies to Sarah's - like real life sisters would do! And OMG, whoever it was who judged you guys not having fake eyelashes??? WTH? (Probably someone very insecure and shallow.) You two are both beautiful. I do wear make-up most days, but if I see a youtuber without fake lashes I immediately give them MORE credibility! They are more authentic. I love that your husbands pop in now & again. I love it that Brad got blamed for breaking something. (Can't remember what it was, but love that he was dually called out on it - LOL!!) I also LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that you guys don't constantly have busy music playing over your content. I'd be happy with you guys doing live versions and no editing. You don't need anything fancy. I came to your channel for keto, but I just like you guys regardless, for all your recipes, and perseverance. Oh, and I love your dogs being there too. Thank you for all you do for us. Nobody gave the "keto police" a badge or authority to be unkind. We can just dismiss them. Thanks again for all you do!!

Well some people are so strange. I’m glad you are here. You are so real…Love love❤️

Thanks for this! You made me laugh over the eyelashes... I actually quit watching one influencer because her fake lashes were too distracting.😂Thanks for not wearing them.🙂Love your channel because you are so entertaining and informative.

I love how real you guys are!! Watching your videos feels like chatting with friends. You keep me motivated.

I love your channel!! You are so REAL. And that personality is what drawed me. You convinced me that Keto works. Love your recipes!!

I only follow a handful of creators at a time. I add a new one when one seems to be done. Just wish they’d make a quick vid to say they’re stopping or changing direction because they become like “friends” and I wonder where they went and if they’re okay. Speaking as someone who doesn’t leave hateful comments. Glad you two plan to stick around through the highs and lows!

I liked what Sarah said about attracting similar people like them. That is me exactly. We all struggle with something in our lives. I recently found you girls and I love your channel. You are so down to earth and real about Keto. Thank you and please don't leave.

I trust you two more because you don't try to fool us with artificially enhanced eyelashes.

I appreciate y'all and your honesty. When you try recipes you tell the truth. I appreciate that!

Thank you for your videos! I love the trials of different food recipes. Gotta do some pot stickers now!

I am curious who the "favorite Influencers" are who are quitting . I can only think of one that I know of .keto connect , which was never a favorite . You guys are my favorite .The best parts to me are your comments and humor in imperfect moments . It lightens it all and shows how human you are and that anyone can do this .Love you guys 🥰

I also feel that I will eat keto forever. It has been a fad for some, but for others, it will be a lifestyle.

You two are so great at addressing things in such a relatable way. I so appreciate your hard work and all your videos. Also, I wanted to thank you for encouraging me personally. You replied to me when I was feeling really discouraged and had been off track due to losing a very close friend. I feel strong and in control and ready to put in the hard work! Thank you both so much!!!😊

I really appreciate the consistency in your content.

Thank you Ladies I watch both of your channels and enjoy both for their content. Keep up the great work! 👏👏

You are my cup of tea. Thanks for being a great support.

“How can I trust you when you won’t even do something fake?” What sense does that even make?? So glad you don’t do fake eyelashes. I won’t watch someone who has them. It’s not even good for your eyes. Don’t even get me started. Thanks for what you do and your honest input. I did keto strictly for two years and now just IF/ OMAD low carb. Health is the most important part of it all. Love!

You guys are the most transparent & down to earth channel that I’ve watched. You are real people and we all appreciate it 🎉❤😢😊

I love watching you both. You’re so down to earth and your videos are informative and funny too. I have been doing keto/low carb for 3 years now and it has changed my life. I just turned 70 years old and I feel better than ever in my life. I think you have a great attitude about your channel and about your followers. Keep doing exactly what you’re doing…and thank you!

Your videos are entertaining and informative and I'm so glad that I found you! Keto with intermittent fasting, is my way of life and your videos have REALLY helped me. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

I always look forward to all your videos. You both are so enjoyable to watch with your upbeat personalities. I’ve tried many things you’ve made, and got your stamp of approval and for my husband and I, it’s a “trust” in you.

Gals, I look forward to all your new videos & love everything you do. Even the “failures.” It shows we’re all human. Thanks for all you do!! You’re so fun to watch!!

Great video, love watching your channel especially the comparison videos.

Your videos are fun to watch and I look forward to watching your videos. You both look great !! Thanks for sharing !!

This was encouraging, thank you ❤

I started a LCHP lifestyle over 5 years ago to control my diabetes. It worked and in the process lost 80 lbs. I’ve moved to a more Ketovore direction lately. Love your content.

Thank you for always being open and honest ❤️

Thanks for all you do! I’m struggling and it really helps to watch your videos!!

I love your channel! ❤️ Please don’t ever change! 😊

Glad to see you over here on this new channel now. I think a lot of people my age don’t understand what it takes to develop and run a yt channel….it sounds like A LOT! Thank you for continuing on your journey with creating and filming content that so many of us enjoy. God bless you girls🙏🏻🩷🤗

Thanks for keeping it real ladies! Love your channel

I love your channel. Thanks so much for keepin on.

Aloha Ladies! YOU TWO are awesome! Keep doing YOU BOO! Thanks for the encouragement and ALL the hard work you put into encouraging the KETO Community and for being faithful to what you do and not letting the naigh sayers get to you! With MUCH LOVE , BLESSINGS AND ALOHA to you BOTH! 🌴🌺 🥰

Interesting video: thanks for sharing your experience and observations.

WOW! SUBSCRIBED 😊 This was my first time watching your channel. I'm part of the 99% that gained sooo much after COVID and I need help getting back on track and boom my fav influencers are gone! Definitely happy to have you here. So keep em coming! 😀

I'm still here. I can't watch every video but you're channel is still a game changer to me and helps me stay on course! I've lost so much weight. I could never go back to full carbs!

Too many haters in the world , most just want to start fights, hurt feelings, others are jealous of what others have accomplised. You both are beautiful and you don't need fake eyelashes, Live simple enjoy life, be happy and make others happy just by being you. We Love you for it and I thankyou for being there for me through a keto lifestyle. ❤❤❤❤

I'm really grateful for your channel and content, you guys are fun to watch! Thanks for spending the time addressing things like this, on top of doing recipe videos, I really appreciate both kinds! And really, I've said before, I had a channel doing cakes and people always found something to criticize me for. And the only thing they could see of me was my hands! Yeah, lots of unhappy people out there

Being true to yourself is always the way to go. This was a very sensible message. Well done. I only recently discovered your KetoTwins channel; found the content informative and very funny (you both have a good sense of humour). Keep up the good work.

Boy, I'm right there with you on this one... We got into keto and then made our channel. We are in it for life do to it saving my husband's life and all the benefits it comes with. Great video. We've been getting the same emails and comments from viewers asking the same question....

Thanks for this information. Very helpful.

💗 This is a great video. I used to video what I ate every day. I had very few followers, and even with such a small audience, I had plenty of unkind and judgmental comments. It really soured me on the whole videoing my life thing. 😄 I love how real you guys are. Thanks for sharing your experience with keto with us.

I appreciate the explanation about the RU-vid algorithm. It totally makes sense with some of the stuff I've seen in YT not even on the topic of Keto. Thank you for taking the time to regularly put out videos that are both informative and entertaining. 👍👏

Lord!! i had no idea!! thank you for this video! it has really enlightening for me and i hope many others!! real eye opener..you just make it look so easy!! i love your channel and all you do and also appreciate your diversity!! I apologize for those that are rude or offend you! keep up the awesome work!

I started keto and after a year my husband now does Leo and recently my type 1 diabetic daughter who just turned 18 is now keto too. It’s thanks to you for all of this! You inspired me and my family

I needed this video. Thank you.

Thanks girls I appreciate your content. I go astray with keto but your channel always brings me back. I think your both great❤️

You are both amazing and I always look forward to your posts. Thank you!!!

Hi gals…my wife and I really enjoy your channel! You are real, have great content and are fun! Eyelashes, really? In 5 years I’m at 195 from 360 and my wife is 140 from 220..at first no sugar and no wheat…the past 3 years mostly keto, we have maintained the past year and are low carb for life…I lost over 100 lbs three times the past 30 years and put more on each time…this lifestyle is sustainable and non-restrictive…thank you for your time and energy to help so many people you are great!!!!❤️❤️❤️🏌🏻‍♂️💃

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST VDOS U HAVE DONE!!! Thanks. I love that you don’t try to make it look perfect-but doable! Thanks! Bravo!!

I really enjoy all that you do. Thank you for keeping everttning so real.

This is why I love you gorgeous ladies! You are so honest and I love that you are "technically" keto. That is how I live my life. I like to splurge during holidays or birthdays and then jump right back on to Keto. I mean life is short, right? But I seriously LOVE this channel because of all of the great recipes and ideas that you give me. It is SOOO helpful and I look forward to each of your videos. The Chaffle is life saving. Not even kidding. Please keep doing what you are doing. I do know that it is a LOT of work and I, for one, appreciate you both SO much. Thank you.

You keep doing what you are doing. I truly have benefited and learned from your videos. Being on Keto has saved my life and enjoy great health now because of it. Thank you for your vids and looking forward to more from you both. ❤❤😊😊

Honestly: I love you and your Content. Keep up your great work! It really makes me happy that you are around here!

I love your channel! I really enjoy the content and the fact that you’re real and show your struggles and successes. Keep going!!!

Happy New Year ladies! I love being on keto and it's likely because of your channel. You literally helped me change my life with some fun thrown in! You (like me) are not perfect and sometimes you try those things you use to love. Your recipes and stories are engaging and help me see my path more clearly. I'm totally ok with you not having fake eye lashes and I thank you for the fun you bring to your channel. :)

Your eyelashes are looking good! Skin is looking good, plants look good, your common sense is appealing, your message is on target. Thank you for your videos.

Thank you for filling this niche :) Also, just in general (didn't know where to put it, but I gotta thank you:) you gave me the push I needed to try this in a relaxed way. So thank you, thank you, thank you for opening my mind a bit more and for helping me change my relationship with food for the better

You have been key to my success on keto, my daughter 's and my neice. About 150 lbs lost in my family 😊 thank you ❣️

Thanks guys for both this channel and KetoTwins. This was very clarifying. As a follower I was feeling betrayed by some of my people going away from keto. Now I get it. I agree with folks below. Health is the message not fad eating. You channel helps me do that. Again, thanks for the hard work and inspiration.
