  • @Marc-NZ
    "If you're hungry, you eat, and you eat till you are full" That's my favorite quote... thank you Dr. Berry
  • @tomthetavernman
    I've been suffering with MS for 20 years now. I thought that things were only going to get worse as I aged. I turned 40 last month and started keto. My MS symptoms have totally gone away! I haven't felt this good since being a child, no exaggeration. Drs Berry and Berg have changed my life so much for the better and for that I'm incredibly grateful. Thankyou.👍
  • Today is our one year anniversary on keto..! I've lost 157 pounds and my wife Tiffany has lost 85. Plus our A1C's, blood pressure and cholesterol are now normal for the first time in years and we no longer have to take any diabetes meds. 🤩 🤩 🤩 We think KETO ROCKS..! 🤩 🤩 🤩

    I am a 56 yr old female. Keto diet for 3 weeks and intermittent fasting. The weight has just ripped off me. Age is just a number. And I feel great.
  • @pambutcath
    okay, I summarized it into my own word. different people have different interpretations, though. keto tips: 1. don't be afraid of taking fats 2. use salt in food, to taste 3. no snacking 4. don't compare your results with other people 5. don't restrict food portion or count calories in them 6. don't trust information from food manufacturers blindly 7. don't be discouraged when you feel all alone
  • @poulardu
    Keto and IF saved me. I went from 418 pounds to 215 pounds. I look and feel amazing. And check this, im 31 and my 6 grade graduate suit is now 2 big for me. Ive adapted this to my lifestyle boy i never felt so good. Im at the point where i have to force myself to eat because i dont be hungry. And the reason why i force myself to eat is because i workout I want to maintain My muscle mass. When people ask me whats my diet. I say i follow a Keto/flexiterian diet meaning. I'm keto and im flexible with meat. Somedays ill eat meat some days i won't and substitute with seafood or not meat period. I cant cut out meat completely, im from the islands n i love oxtails, chicken, pork, lamp, goat n etc. The coolest thing about this, i can stand in a room full of donuts pizza and junk food for hours and not be tempted. All i say is omg i remember when i use to eat that and laugh right after.
  • @ajwinberg
    I'm actually doing this diet alone. I really don't care what my hubby or my friends think. I feel 90% better then I have ever felt and I have lost 38 lbs in the past two and a half months since I started this diet. If you have the will power, ther is nothing wrong with going it alone. Also, Dr. Berries videos help keep me motivated.
  • @tomjones2157
    1. Not enough fat 2. Not enough salt 3. Snacking 4. Comparing your results to others 5. Calorie counting and restricting portion sizes, aka "dieting" and stressing 6. Trusting food labels (they hide carbs under different names) 7. Going Keto solo. Get support!!
  • @heesanoice7637
    I’ve been in ketosis for 10 Days now. I’m down about 5 pounds and feel amazing. Oddly , my arthritic hands and feet feel much better , and I have almost no pain at all !!!
  • Dr Berry, I can’t thank you enough. I started KETO diet about 2 weeks ago after my doctor diagnosed me as type 2 diabetic with an A1C of 7 and elevated blood sugars. Scared the crap out of me and I began to look for ways to naturally avoid going on meds and lose weight. I am 60 yrs old and after only 2 weeks on KETO I have already dropped 12 lbs!! I also feel SO much better, less bloated feeling, the pain in my knee is gone and I don’t feel hungry between meals at all. I can’t thank you enough and since finding your videos on YouTube I have been sharing what I’ve learned with my friends, family and co-workers and have shared several of your vids with them to watch. You’re the BEST!!! 😊😊😊
  • @fredrhodes540
    Keto for 6 weeks have lost 20 lbs and my energy is through the roof. 66 years old and thought the loss of energy was due to age. Not true, sugar and carbs was my issue. Just feel so much better!!
  • @trevorr8834
    Been on Keto for 3 months. Lost 33 lbs. Although I wasn't really overweight before, I am now ripped. The unlimited energy has helped in every part of my life. Did blood work the day before I started. Did blood work 3 months after. Every measurement has improved. Keto has changed my life!
  • @luismedina8502
    I wish ALL doctors took the time to explain things like Dr. Berry. So far lost 35 lbs on Keto and looking for 20 more.... Feel better than ever at 62 Thank you Dr. Berry!
  • @macylouwho1187
    I’ve been doing this diet only one single week and I can already feel a vast difference in how I feel inside of my body. I feel “better”. My stomach is not as bloated or full, it is going down already and I can bend down easier, I feel lighter, and yet I have NOT BEEN HUNGRY or felt deprived of food. Another thing that I noticed is that I used to race for breakfast food in the morning and not be able to last long into the morning without eating something. On this particular way of eating, I can easily make it to lunch time without eating a single thing and I am NOT feeling starved or getting a headache from lack of food. I do drink plenty of non sweet liquids until lunch time though. Eating a meaty/cheese meal at supper time with a huge portion of veggies (also with cheese) is keeping me full for hours on end, all through the night and all through half the next day. So there’s my intermittent fast that puts me in ketosis. And I’m not finding it necessary to snack hardly at all so far. These food combinations keep you FULL. You don’t get peckish and want to graze on junk food. I am very hopeful this will work out. I’m loving this so far and feeling very satisfied with my hunger levels throughout the day. What’s best is I actually like what I’m eating and I’m not starving. So yay!
  • @frugalprepper
    I don't know Dr. Berry, there's a lot of crazy people in those Keto groups on social media. I have lost 130lbs now in about 7 months doing Keto. I have pretty much followed all of your recommendations from you Keto Guidebook. I feel great and have about another 100 lbs or so left to loose. I am feeling healthy, strong, sharp, engaged in the moment, like I haven't fell since I was a kid.
