Belly Fat, Insulin Resistance, and a Hack to Beat Them Both

Ladies please listen to me and go read the book Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth then come back and thank me

I'm 70 & started doing 19-20 hr fasts 2 weeks ago. End of first week I did one 24 hr fast then for 2 days did 14 hr. fast I don't eat bread or carbs on fast days.. but indulge on non fast days. Also I cut back on sugar. Cravings have stopped! I started ACV in water to break the fast.. then ate 2T. vanilla yogurt. Later I had one small meal with protein. I am NOT hungry at ALL! Today for the first time I felt happy & full of energy! I started doing easy wall planks, squats, leg & arm exercises with 3# weights! I'm in shock.. haven't felt like this in decades! I have had severe depression most of my life.. Today is a new beginning! 🎉 I'm even happier that I get to eat CHEESE!😋

I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned it but drink any acid drinks (lemon, vinegar) with a straw to protect your tooth enamel 😁

I find it very difficult to stop eating at 4 in the real world when you have a job and children to take care of

I'm 65yrs old, being a trucker all my working yrs, I accumulated a nice supply of belly fat & insulin resistance to go along with it, now that I'm retired, I've been concentrating on my health, I practice intermittent fasting along with resistance training, I look & feel better than I did in my 40's when it comes to Apple Cider Vinegar, after being an alcoholic all my adult life, taking a nice swig is nothing to me, that's my alcohol these days, I consume before dinner and before bed it has helped me tremendously, I make sure I keep some in my car to have it while eating out or away from home, great content, although I hear it from other content creators, we tend to let things slip if we're not careful 👍

I find it easier to have dinner at a normal time 6-7pm, then skip breakfast and have lunch 12-1pm for 18 hours of fasting.

Just recently discovered Dr. Becky and really appreciate her calm disposition.

As a Wisconsinite who recently got into fasting, this is the most electrifying news I've heard in years. Mobilizing Gouda reserves now.

I make a drink consisting of apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, stevia and fresh minced ginger. It tastes so good.

Finally, a video that is short and to the point!

This is the most intellectual discussion on belly fat . Thank You .

I do IF, but it’s really important to me to eat at the table as a family every night - it’s a ritual that we value. So my fast starts straight after dinner, which is by 7pm 🙂. Love your videos!

This is off topic but I absolutely love your voice. It's so soothing

So happy to find out about these studies’ findings!

I’ve been watching Dr. Becky for 5+ years and took a break from YT for a while. Her and Dr. Keith. I’m so happy to see the huge increase in the number of subscribers. It’s because you are so approachable, knowledgeable and clear.

Thankyou Dr Becky, this was super helpful! I've been trying to do intermittent fasting but I always get hungry in the morning. Having an early dinner works better for me and its helpful to see that a study was done about exactly this. This type of fast is much more doable for me. Thanks again :)

Its so nice to see a Dr who seems to genuinely want to help people, as opposed to pushing products for pay out. Thank you for sharing your expertise! Even if perhaps this method is unsuccessful for me, I can walk away with dignity - instead of feeling like I got scammed. As a new subscriber; i'll look forward to your future videos!

It's so easy once you've done keto first and become fat adapted. I've been eating two meals a day for years. Breakfast at 6 and lunch/ dinner at 12. Then I go 18 hours without a grumble or even a thought about food.

I have this last snack at least 3/4 hours before bedtime. 2spoons linseeds/ Flaxseed 1 spoon chia seeds Mashed up Blueberries And a little coconut milk. Good fats And will keep you full up for a long time and doesn't affect blood sugar. Been doing it for years!

Your introduction and how you described essentially diabetes - and the vicious cycle / snowballing effect was flawless and well said.
