What I Ate to Lose 165 Pounds (with Alternate Day Fasting)

What if i go back to eating every single day???

I just started today. 401 pounds, 6'3" tall. Almost the same numbers as you, so this is such an inspiration. Thanks!

Can you eat bread?

Hi Dr ! First of all thank you for the video and all the advice

For Rule #1 low carb I have a question : do you count ALL the carbs, or only the net carbs ? Or maybe you don’t take the veggies in consideration for your account?

Thank you again for your help ; losing weight is the quest of a life, really

Love mama lupes! We stock up and keep them in the freezer until we need to use them.

I make my own bone broth to the way I like it to taste and it truly helps my fasting. Thanks for taking a nuanced view to fasting.

Hi, Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I am doing ADF, have type two diabetes and need to lose about 200 lbs. I have fasted successfully before but then went back to all of my old habits, and well, here I am again. Anyway, I have a question. I loathe black coffee but my favorite thing in the world is my coffee with half and half. It's my reason for getting out of bed in the morning lol. I am so torn about using heavy cream on fasting days, because I want autophogy for the loose skin issue. Any thoughts on heavy cream?

I agree with you about eating clean. I am fairly new and at times, fasting is hard. When I chew gum, I no longer think about eating. My goal is to eat clean, but I am not there yet and I am going to do what I can until fasting is second nature.

Hi from Germany :) I barely have weight to lose but I'm very interested in fasting and weight loss and love your videos! They're such an amazing resource of information!
Well done on your success and may as many people as possible find your account!

I've never heard someone who isn't on a low carb diet mention the term low carb so many times

Jesus bless u man

Update on my progress. I started ADF March 14, 2024 at 374.4lbs after 10 weeks im down to 322.2lbs. I have lost 52 lbs in 10 week.

Two questions: What about a splash of skim milk in coffee during a fast? Does that break the fast? Also, how did you cure your Hypothyroidism? Was losing weight enough? My mom and I both have it but she's 105 pounds, where as I have a good 50 pounds to lose.

I think cholesterol is not a bad thing as we been told . Carnivore diet proves it

Many many congrats 🩵🩵🩵

Anyone else who wonders how a professional Dr could eat up to 414 pounds with all the info & knowledge they have about food vs health 😂.

I stoped eating for a week and almost died

❤❤❤

Hi Frank 👋🏿

Man this is hard to do when you have a traveling lifestyle dude.

I'm not a trucker but sometimes I have to stay randomly in hotels. Literally run out of food I had brought for the day.

So then, what do you do when you've run out? Where can I go because it's SOOO easy to either under eat or over eat once you've gotten used to fasting. Like I could just fast right now... It doesn't even bother me much.

I've been worried because I'm eating clean, just not enough. My wait is being more maintained and it's annoying.

Hi Dr frank

Thank you so much. This does help ALOT

Can you drink your electrolytes that contain stevia on your fasting days!

Ughh im 5’3 and 220 I feel so huge and manly. Im so over this feeling. Time for a change.! Im starting tomorrow 7-22-2024. Will do updates in a few weeks/month. Good luck everyone on this journey.

ADF works as it allows insulin levels to drop and fat stores to be used. Mentioning calories, that paradigm does not work. Talk about real food versus food like substances which the shops are full of. Low carb reduces hunger. Eat real food, until satisfied, eat fat (not margarine or vegetable oils), Try not to eat sugar or starch.

Hello when I break my fast, can I drink a strawberry smoothie with avocado, as a breakfast meal . Do you think is going to slow losing weight down Thank you.

Diet soda is terrible for anyone fasting or not, soda is terrible in general but diet soda is the worst choice

Fiber doesnt trap cholesterol... Liver produces cholesterol to fix your Arties and blood vessels from inflammation in your body.. thats it

I am down 13 lbs in 8 days of ADF. Clothes fit better. I still have to work on the quality of the food i eat but this is working well.

3.7 litres (yes, most of the world uses litres not gallons) of water a day? That is a LOT - I though my 1.5 litres was pretty good LOL

I’m bald

to much protein, you are killing your kidneys, also acidity of your blood spikes through the roof

How do you feel about eating fruit when fasting to lose weight? I’ve lost weight before while having lots of fruit in my diet, although that wasn’t fasting, just more of a traditional diet and exercise regime. I know that fruits have some sugar and sugar is technically a carb, just a simple carb, but still many fruits still have a lot of fiber and vitamins and nutrients and the sugar in say an apple or an orange is still not even comparable to the sugar in things like soda or candy. Besides, in order to stick to a diet, you have to be eating foods that you enjoy and fruits are certainly enjoyable

Yes!

Thank you Dr O'Neill for your advice. I just started my ADF journey about 10 days ago and have dropped 7 lbs at my one week weigh in. I love all the information you offer. Its been such a big help to me and I'm finding that I'm enjoying this journey so much! Feeling alot better as well.

Love your videos

I went from 210 to 135 doing almost exactly what you are saying, I limit my self to 2 diet sodas per day but don’t drink much of this I buy La Croix to replace the craving of a soda and drink dark coffee and lots of water and eat a lot of avocado and egg whites and meat and nuts. I really do like your tips. Oh don’t forget about the Bacon!!

Im watching this and starting this week..im 6'5 325...

I’m confused bc you say you don’t worry about macros on feast days but everything you eating is low carb this low carb that ..?

so you still lost weight while drinking chicken broth on your fasting days?
