Kept off 135 lb weight loss for 20 years and I'm here to say that the maintenance IS the ruff part. I too in the last years have put on 10 and I'm about to shed it off 😊😊😊 Love ur recipes and tips
I went all in Keto for a year and fall off big. Now after 2 years going more Ketovor low carb A LOT OF EXERCISE my weight is back down. I will NEVER go off again. You are right to maintain is hard. Working out is a must for me to maintain. :)
Girllll you helped me so much! You have no idea. I started keto a few weeks ago and have not been faithful or doing it right and have struggled to want to. Your videos are providing the “want to” for me and I need that. I’m the heaviest I’ve ever weighed, I have some signs of insulin resistance and diabetes is on every side of my family no matter what side you look at lol. So thank you girl! I can’t wait to try that cereal and your tamales recipe. I might use your tamale recipe for inspiration for pupusas 🫓 🤤
i gained weight after stopping keto too, i lost 90lbs, quit keto 6 months ago, said "ill have just a little cheat" and that turned into 29lbs regained lol. Im just about to complete week 2 back on keto, last weight in i already lost 5.3lbs hopefully tomorrow when i weigh in im down another 5lbs.
Weigh once a week once you’ve reached your goal weight so that you never gain more then a few pounds before making an adjustment over the following week. Keep carbs under 100 a day. I find once we learn how to use low carb to lose weight it’s easy to carb cycle to maintain weight. Also keep your portions and calories where they need to be for maintenance. It’s easier to fix 5lbs then it is to fix 30lbs
@@wereachhomestead6348 I should start weighing in once i reach my goal just to keep it in mind. My issue is i pretty much mastered losing weight with keto for my body, and i developed this habit that i can just quit, eat junk, then lose it quickly. Thats bad and i have to find a way to resist that mindset.
I’m so glad you made this video. I like when you show meals. I thought you had been focusing too much on desserts and I’ve never been a sweets person. This kind of video keeps it real, eating healthy, low carb foods. Glad to be back to your channel.
Hi Mayra hadn’t seen your channel in a while I’am glad your back. I love your videos that you share what you eat in a day that gives me ideas. I wanted to do some fasting and low carb I just turned 65 and the weight is hard to come off but I just take it one day @ a time.❤❤
Really enjoyed this video. I prefer to see your ideas for (relatively) easy and quick meals instead of just desserts (not that I have anything against dessert 😀). I’ll definitely be making the salmon bowl and fajitas in the future. Also, your hair looks beautiful, love the highlights.
I like taco stuffed peppers and pizza made with a low carb tortilla for the crust. So good!! I also bake chicken breast with a mixture of mayo, garlic powder and parmesan cheese brushed on top. It makes kind of a crust on top of the chicken and the mayo keeps it moist.
@@LowCarbLoveexact recipe: 4 chicken breasts 1c mayo 1/2 c freshly grated parmesan cheese. 1/4 tsp of seasonal salt 1/2 tsp pepper 1 tsp garlic powder Bake at 375 for 45 min or longer depending on the thickness of your chicken. I served this to company and everyone raved about it!!
hi,living life on Galviston Beach.hurt my legs at gym a year ago i could not walk. Back on Kito and fasting 23/1 love it because i use to own a restaurant for 15 years and have a food addiction. Cooking and eating . Your recipes r great thank you.
I love to just put strawberries n bananas with some sliced almonds as my cereal. You’d be surprised… It works great! I get a little crunch and the strawberries n banana slices taste great in milk. It’s not processed and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg! 😎
Would you please include links to all the sauces and dressings you're using in this and your other videos? Love your videos and ideas, and I think the sauces and dressings are what keep the lifestyle interesting and sustainable for me. Thanks so much!
Hi Myra!!! Love ❤️ love❤ love the low carb meals and snacks. It really helps us with ideas and keeping us going as we take this journey. Keto also helped me loose the pounds but low carb and cleaner eating is more sustainable. So please keep these videos coming! and you.... are gorgeous! And you look fabulous! You are inspiring.
You are so high energy, and you have a great smile and laugh, and you are articulate. You are a natural for this medium. I always enjoy your videos. I've lost 30 lbs so far this year on low carb. I won't say I'm KETO, just low carb. I hope to lose another 20 by the end of the year.
Mayra no dessert LOL 😅!! I love your channel and your recipes! Your website is amazing and you don’t push products! My favorite is the 2 ingredient brownies! Thank you for all that you do to help people with the weight struggles. ❤❤
@@LowCarbLove I think anything you cook yourself is better and cheaper than any restaurant. You know exactly what's in it and the personal cleanliness of your kitchen
All these meal look amazing. Can you please make more budget friendly meals. I am on a strict budget and would like to eat healthier. I do not understand why food that are unhealthy are always cheaper.
because our tax money subsidizes all those cheap fillers that keep us fat and unhealthy so processed foods are made with 4 basic crops and then whatever chemicals will give it the flavour they want it to have.
I don't find that at all. Fresh Greens, Cabbage, Mustard Greens, etc are very economical. Frozen veggies of all types are pretty frugal. Chicken, tuna in cans, eggs still pretty economical. Peanut butter as well as peanuts pretty economical. Fruits that are lower in Carbs (you just have to use portion control), bagged apples. This is a real good choice as they are cheaper than individual and, more importantly, SMALLER--the size of your palm of your hand usually. I just bought a bag of small Honey Crisp Apples for $2.96. They're are sales every week. Groceries in general are not cheap but it just drives me crazy when people say how cheap junk food is. It is actually fairly expensive. My husband delivers potato chips for Frito-Lay. They literally go up every two to three months. Yet they FLY off of the shelf. People do not WANT to eat ground beef and cabbage. Overall, people do not want to throw four chicken breasts in the oven or pan fry it in a little oil, steam some frozen green beans, chop up a little lettuce or greens, throw a few cherry tomatoes and some sunflower seeds (also a cheap nut) on top with a little dressing or lemon and a little olive oil. In general, people do not want to cook. They want what I call "easy food", processed and ready to eat.
@@donnaleeclubb119 👏👏👍👍🤝🏻BINGO! It's Convienience over Cooking. And even if Cooking is involved, They just do not put enough thought into How/When/What they buy and cook(as you've explained). A lot of Meals can be easy and tasty and convienient, with the right attitude and ingredients and minor preparation. Baking Multiple Chicken Breasts(or Thighs or Legs if preferred) at one time, can be used over a week's meals(or sliced and frozen into containers for future meals). Same with Fruits and Vegetables and Legumes and Grains. Whatever is on Sale or Affordable each week, base your meals around those. Everyone needs Proteins/Fruits/Vegetables/Grains/Fats. Incorporate Flexible Options(Even if not 100% Clean or Ideal but Economical) of these into your meals, and you're good to go. Progress not Perfection. Make It An Adventure/Treasure Hunt. What Inexpensive Meals and Groceries can You Uncover and Come Up With?🤔😎👍👍👏👏
Chica! I LOVE this kind of video. We have a very very similar meal pattern as well as its contents! Thank you for keeping it real and motivated-it really helps. God bless, have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I love your videos. I have to say what’s helping me lose weight is staying away from anything bread wise. I told myself no bread and no gluten. And so far I’ve been feeling great. I eat nothing but veggies, meats and fruits. My carbs are jasmine rice and oatmeal, sweet potato and as hard as it is for me I stay away from coffee and alcohol due to my RA.
I have a friend who lost 90 pounds on Keto. She experienced the same challenge with weight slowly creeping on little by little. The first week of every month she goes back to strict Keto counting macros to keep her mindful of amounts. She says this helps remind her of the things she has to be a little more cautious about eating.
I love your vlog. Recently down almost 25 pounds. I did a wellness program. Detoxification included. I'm still going and I agree changing ur ways, mind is key. But I love your realistic view.
Myra, could you maybe do a life update? Even on your other channel perhaps? You’ve made so many changes and brought us into your life and all, but then everything kinda just stopped and we see all these new things. Also, from your thumbnail, could you please share why you decided to stop keto? Just wondering how you’re doing and why all the changes. Blessings to you and your fam 🙏🏻🌸😊
I love that there are so many wonderful options out there for Keto and low-carb diets. I'm now in a different country, and meat prices here have doubled and more since Covid. Things from the US have to be imported so there's more cost there too. It makes the diet a bit more complicated, sadly. There are times I have to eat carbs because I can't afford protein.
Your 12 year old?! I have been watching your recipe videos for a while and assumed you were about 19 or 20. You look fabulous, seriously. Thank you for all the sensible advice and very good recipes.
Magic Spoon is $11 per box of cereal? How unrealistic are these youtubers? Even with a $5 off code, this is ridiculous cost for cereal for most middle class families
Myra, thank you for all the inspiration and delicious meals. I too also love spice a dcwell seasoned foods as I am from the Caribbean. What I would like to know is are all your foods currently sugar free? I was asking because you did not show the brand of your fajita seasoning also your pickl ginger
Hey Myra! 💚 What brand of pickled ginger do you use? . I can't find one without aspartame. Also curious about the brand of the furakake seasoning. Thanks for the video!
I love ice - going to try that with my cereal LOL!! What is the paint color in your house??? Love it - please write me the name of the color pleaseeee. Thanks!
To lose weight i cant do three eatings a day plus the snack you just did cause that eating so many times activates insulin spikes and you know what that means
You need some cilantro, tomato, onion, possibly cotija, but I don't care for spicy or bell peppers, but that looks so good, I want a bite. I'm open minded to try stuff, and even though I don't like my mouth burning from heat, chiles give food so much flavor.
It’s $29.99 on Amazon for all four boxes!! Not bad if you crave cereal. I would eat a half a box at a time so I would die to have a cup of cereal on my low carb diet!! FYI. love to all
Hi! I absolutely love your videos. You seem to have really great style as well. Could you please do a home tour. Your home looks beautiful! Thank you for all the amazing recipes!
The one thing I noticed after being hardcore Keto for only just two months, my body normalized thus allowing me to have treats or cheats without stopping the weight loss and now I can even maintain my weight loss as long as I stick to the core of fighting carbs. Enriched carbs and sugar are always going to destroy our bodies.
Going forward PLEASE take the time to EDIT your old written recipes that you have linked to new video’s. In this “new” video you have added four more ingredients (honey, minced garlic, soy, sesame oil) and removed one (grd ginger) but your FULL RECIPE LINK does not reflect the changes. thanks.
I've been at my goal weight for about 2 years now. I allow myself to cheat for one meal just once a week. For example, for breakfast, I'll have an English muffin with my eggs and coffee. Then I'll stick to keto (or low carb) the rest of that day and will not waiver for another week. If I know I'm gonna cheat, like Thanksgiving coming up, I'll behave and just stick to the program until that day comes for the week. I hope this helps. Oh, one more thing. For some reason where I live I cannot get good avocadoes this time of year. They are very watery and turn brown fast no matter what I do to preserve them.
I know this is totally random, but when she opens her refrigerator door, how does she not break the glass on the back door? literally, sometimes when I open my refrigerator door, it just flies open by itself….. I just couldn’t help but obsess over this for a minute
