Maurishire Akabidavis, 26, stumbled into the keto diet the way most people did in 2019on the internet and in conversation with friends.

The low-carb, high-fat eating plan had been touted as a successful weight loss method by celebrities like Halle Berry, Kourtney Kardashian and Vanessa Hudgens. What is keto was even the second top searched health question on Google last year.

Like the product of any echo chamber, Maurishire quickly became convinced that she should join the masses. I have always wanted to lose weight and for as long as I can remember I've always had no idea how to do that," she told Women's Health. The keto diet seemed like a great way for Maurishire to finally take control of her eating habits. It provided strict guidelines that left little room for deviation and had a widely-known reputation for rapid fat loss. But one year later, Maurishire is among the many ex-keto dieters to express dissent for the highly restrictive eating plan.

A typical ketogenic diet focuses on cutting down carbs and upping your fat intake to force your body to use fat as a form of energy, says Scott Keatley, RD, of Keatley Medical Nutrition Therapy. The eating plan usually looks something like this: 60 to 75 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 30 percent of your calories from protein, and 5 to 10 percent of your calories from carbs. This means you're eating no more than 50 grams of carbs a day, but many people drop down to as little as 20 grams.

Within the first week of being on the low-carb diet, your body will be operating on such little sugar, that it has to start gobbling up fat for energy instead, Keatley explains.

For many people this leads to dramatic fat and weight loss (and good for them!). But other dieters and experts warn that the keto diet is simply not sustainable long term and is often accompanied by some not-so-fun side effects (think: sluggishness, brain fog, low energy, and more).

So, is the keto diet really a good idea? Well, that depends.

Jenna Jameson, once one of keto's biggest fans, recently opened up about the challenges of the diet. She began keto in April 2018 and reportedly lost 80 pounds. But by late 2019, she'd suddenly stopped posting about her results. I decided to take a break from #keto and live my best carby life, she wrote in an Instagram post, admitting to her followers that she had gained 20 pounds. The weight came back fast and furious. I know a lot of people are quitting keto because its hard to maintain, and after a year and a half I concur. Not sure if Im going to go back full force or just calorie count, Jenna wrote.

Since then, the model's re-upped the diet, though she's been candid about the fact that it's been harder to stick to it the second time around. This kind of yo-yo dieting is common among people on super restrictive eating plans, according to Juliana Shalek, RD, of The Nutrition Suite. And when you do slip up, you'll likely regain weight quickly. "When we restrict certain carbs such as bread and pasta and eventually start adding them back in again, we tend to overeat these foods," Shalek says. "Ill have people that lost 12 to 15 pounds initially and then when they started incorporating those carbs, they gained that back plus some."

Carolynn Tulluck, 29, found the low-carb diet to be completely draining. The Gym and Pizza blogger from Seattle, Washington started keto in January 2017. Her goal was to stick to a 20 gram-per-day carb intake in hopes of losing the 25 pounds she'd recently gained.

Carolynn lost 15 pounds in the first month alone, but found that by April she hit a plateau and was experiencing massive fatigue and seriously low energy during her workouts. She couldn't keep up with her usual cardio or weight lifting and decided to pause on keto for a while. But she restarted her diet a year later after regaining the weight, only to find herself in desperate need of a carb fix one day and downing a honey stick just to jumpstart her energy levels. And that's when she realized keto was not sustainable.

Keatley says low energy is a common side effect of the diet. And many of his clients complain of feeling tired and sluggish. "Youre not burning that sugar quickly any more. Instead, you have to wait for that fat to be broken down to conserve energy," Keatley explains.

Most people adjust to the low energy levels, but Carolynn found that she couldn't. Now she considers herself a flexitarian, eating red meat on occasion, but focusing on plant-based and vegetarian meals as much as possible. "I feel so much better, even just in the stress of not having to count carbs so religiously," she says. "I'm spending less time focusing on the macro breakdown and just trying to eat as healthy as possible."

"I find that when people cut out carbohydrates, they overeat them later," says Shalek. "Thats the bottom line." This can be a major concern for people with a history of binge eating. That's why Matthew Weiner, MD, of A Pound of Cure encourages his patients to focus on cutting out processed foods and eating whole foods instead of eliminating entire food groups from their diet, as the keto diet requires. This helps with weight loss without encouraging restrictive eating.

According to Amy Rothberg, MD, PhD, at the University of Michigan, most of her patients who complain about the keto diet have experienced the keto flu, a combination of crummy symptoms that make them feel under the weather. "They all feel terrible, they feel like they have the fluheadaches, nausea, constipation," Rothberg says. Plus, you may also experience vitamin deficiencies. "Without having grains, youre reducing your B vitamin intake greatly," Keatley says.

But these symptoms usually occur during the first week of the diet when your body is getting used to the shift in energy sources and carbohydrate reduction. They tend to taper out as you get more used to restrictive eating. And if you're willing to lose weight at a slower (but more sustainable pace!), Keatley recommends upping your carb intake to at least 45 to 60 grams to skip over the keto flu and some of those other neggy side effects that can send your body into shock.

When you decrease your carbohydrates, youre also decreasing your fiber. And fiber is what helps keeps your digestive tract moving, Keatley explains. Without it, you can experience some pretty uncomfortable constipation.

And when you try to incorporate carbs back into your diet after having been on keto consistently, you may experience gas, bloating, and diarrhea. "Basically a Pepto-Bismol commercial," Weiner says.

To avoid this, Shalek recommends ensuring your diet is rich in high-fiber carbohydrates. Remember: The fiber helps control blood sugar levels and keeps you full. You want to aim between 25 to 35 grams of fiber a day.

At least not when it comes to weight loss. What has been researched and proven, however, is the negative effect of eating so much red meat (which a low-carb, high-fat definitely encourages!). That's where things get risky, Weiner says.

A recent study from Northwestern University linked red and processed meat with higher risk of heart disease and death. "Eating two servings of red meat, processed meat or poultrybut not fishper week was linked to a 3 to 7 percent higher risk of cardiovascular disease," the study reports.

That's why Weiner recommends that if you're going to do the keto diet, you should focus on more lean animal proteins.

Maurishire comes from a first generation African-American family, meaning her parents immigrated from Africa. Many of the dishes she eats are cooked by relatives with love, but oftentimes, without measurements. There are a bunch of African foods where Im like, I have no idea how many grams of fat are in this specific soup that my grandma just made in her pot, she says. Meals like that are part of her heritage and historyand she wasn't willing to give them up. Im not about to stop eating that for any sort of lifestyle change. Id maybe eat it with quinoa instead of rice, Maurishire says. But feeling like she had to choose between her culture and her diet was a deal breaker.

About a month into the diet, the 26-year-old also began struggling with the strict restrictions on a more ethical level, too. It just felt ridiculous for me to limit myself in that way considering all the limitations other people go through, she says. "I still do have limitations brought on me by my own finances and society, but it felt silly to add limitations. And also to feel so sad," she says. While on the diet, it was hard for her to enjoy food, and that's when she decided to stop.

Keatley often warns his clients to be mindful of the way the diet not only makes you look (in terms of fat loss), but also how you feel. "If you find it to be very unenjoyable you should stop. If the keto diet is ruining your relationship with food and other people, you should stop," he says.

Now, Maurishire focuses on moderation rather than restriction. Instead of eating the whole bag of chips, Ill count out the serving size," she says. Her family dishes no longer feel off limits and she tries to plan out her meals ahead of time, focusing on eating about 1,600 to 1,650 calories a day.

And the truth is: That's the diet that worksthe one that's right for you. If you think that keto could be it, take it for a spin. Just keep in mind that both the diet and the results will likely be temporary.

The Olympic medalist relocated to Wigan at the end of 2018 to work with coach Trevor Painter in an attempt to revive her career and qualify for the Tokyo Games, which has been put back to next summer.

She has revealed how much she suffered at the advice of her coaches, who felt was "too heavy".

I spent a lot of my career with terrible fatigue because I didnt want to consume too many calories," she told the Sunday Times.

"Youve got a champion mindset and will do whatever it takes. But it shouldnt be costing you your mental or physical health. To look at, I was in great shape. Inside I was so conscious of, Have I lost enough weight?

"When youre looking at someone who is under 10 per cent body fat, how safe is it to say, Lose 5kg?

As well as winning 400m relay bronze at the 2008 Olympics, Okoro has seven medals from European and World Championships.

The main rule is not to skip meals for weight loss! Eat four times a day: in the morning, at noon, around 4 PM and 8 PM. This will train your body to a certain rhythm of nutrition. If you want to lose a few pounds, fitness coaches usually recommend eating certain types of food at different times of the day.!

A can of coke that you drink at lunch, the pasta that you eat for dinner, or even cereal for Breakfast contain a huge amount of sugar. What can you do about weight loss? Every time you go to the grocery store, check the sugar level on the package and try to choose those products that contain less of it.No one can completely get rid of sugar and they don't need to! Consumption of natural sugar is natural for the body, but refined sugar is harmful to health.

When you Wake up, drink a Cup of warm water with honey and lemon. It is not difficult at all and at the same time effective in the fight against excess weight. This drink accelerates the metabolism, and drinking it on an empty stomach, you set your body on a fat-burning regime in weight loss. Juice is often called a healthy product, but it is important to remember that it does not belong to low-calorie drinks. 250 ml of orange juice contains 110 calories, which is the equivalent of two oranges. Few of us eat two fruits in a day, but if we have juice on hand, we usually drink more than one glass!

My name is Kiah Twisselman (@kiah_twisselman), and I am 27 years old. I live in San Luis Obispo, California, and Im a weight loss coach and owner of a creative marketing company called Burley & Barley, as well as a sixth generation cattle rancher at Twisselman Ranch. I was frustrated with my weight, so I decided to make some big changes. I've now lost 125 pounds.

I dont ever remember a time when I wasnt overweight growing up. I battled obesity most of my life. I was raised in rural California on my familys now seventh generation cattle ranch, an hour from the nearest grocery store, gas station, or high school. We were surrounded by wide open spaces, beautiful wildlife, and the most incredible home-cooked meals.

Food was comforting for me. I ate when I was sad, angry, excited, happy, boredyou name it. But my weight made doing normal things on the ranch difficult for me, whether that was lifting hay bales or feeding cattle, being able to mount a horse, or keep up with my brothers and cousins.

I did the Atkins diet with my parents. I yo-yo dieted off and on through high school and college. After so many failed attempts, I would eventually get to a point where I accepted that I was a victim to the poor genetic hand I was dealt, and that just maybe there was nothing I could do about it.

After college, I moved to Germany for a year. I remember how difficult it was for me to do simple things like walk from my host familys house to the university or even have the energy to explore at all. I love to travel, but my weight made fitting into airplane seats challenging and at one point I even had to ask for a seat belt extender, which felt like a new low for me.

I was also worried about my health. Diabetes and heart disease run in my family. I became complacent and just simply accepted that it wasnt if I were to get diabetes and/or heart disease, but when. I grew up in a big family, and I knew I wanted to have my own someday if possible. I would hear stories about overweight women struggling to get pregnant or stay pregnant, and I knew that if I wanted the best chances of being a mom one day, then I needed to start taking care of myself.

I had just bought Rachel Hollis Girl, Wash Your Face. On that one plane ride, I devoured it from start to finish. It was the words I needed at the time, and I was ready to receive them. It was a wake-up call for me that if I wanted to change anything about my lifemy health, my career, my relationshipsthen it was 100 percent up to me to do it. Instead of playing victim to my circumstancesmy job, my income, my geneticsI knew it was time that I take complete ownership of my choices.

For me, that meant starting with free YouTube dance workout videos in my living room. More than a year and a half later, thats still one of my favorite ways to exercise.

I recently decided to start training for a marathon, so I try to run at least three times a week on my favorite trail by the ocean or at my familys ranch. I sprinkle in free strength training workouts from YouTube using a set of dumbbells, a few rides on a stationary bike ride while watching my favorite Netflix show, and the occasional yoga or hike with friends in between.

I try to move my body for at least 30 minutes every day, even if some days that just means a simple walk on the ranch.

Change one: I readjusted my mindset. My physical transformation is the most apparent, but my mindset change has been the most impactful. Intentionally choosing thoughts about myself that felt like love instead of hate and judgement was the greatest change I made, and that has led to my success. Choosing to love myself and the future self I am always striving to become motivates me to show up and do the hard thing, even when I dont feel like it.

This content is imported from Instagram. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

Change two: I adopted intuitive eating. Our bodies are incredibly intuitive if we take the time to pause and really listen to them. Instead of telling myself that certain foods were off limits, I started listening to my body telling me when it was satisfied rather than finishing everything on my plate and becoming uncomfortably full. This gave me the freedom to enjoy the foods I loved in moderation and in a way that made me feel satisfied without feeling deprived.

Change three: I focused on small baby steps and consistency. I stopped beating myself up when I made a mistake and chose to forgive myself and fail my way forward no matter what. It can be frustrating when you dont see results quickly, but it is the small, consistent baby steps along the way that make the biggest impact. Its not about waiting to feel motivated, but about being disciplined enough to keep showing up, especially when you dont feel like itthats where the magic is.

To date, Ive lost 125 pounds.

Ill admit, I still havent reached my goal weight. What Ive come to realize, though, is that its not really about a goal weight. Sure, its great to set goals, but really this whole journey is more about the person you become along the way. Its about choosing daily to appreciate your body, fuel your body, and strengthen your body to continue striving to be the best version of younot about reaching an arbitrary number on the scale.

This content is imported from Instagram. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site.

When I started my health journey, Ill admit that it was hard to look in the mirror and love myself. I practiced imagining my future self, the best possible version of me, and asking myself what she would be doing, how she would be showing up, and what I needed to do today to get one step closer to her.

I would look in the mirror and say, Okay, Kiah, maybe we dont love the way we look or feel right now, but we are going to love our future self enough to show up and do the hard thing today.

Can Drinking Water Really Help You Get Smarter, Lose Weight and Feel Better? - The Good Men Project

Cryolipolysis, commonly called CoolSculping, is a fat reduction technique which freezes fat cells. This technology is FDA-approved and is safe and effective.

Maybe you consider yourself to be a health-conscious person. You try to eat a balanced diet, get adequate exercise, and make good lifestyle choices. But even though you have healthy habits, you dont feel you look your best. No matter how much physical activity you do or how conscious you are about the foods you eat, certain areas of your body just dont seem to change.

By your teen years and into adulthood, people generally have a set amount of fat cells. As you gain weight, the fat cells expand, and as you lose weight, they shrink. So even though eating healthy and exercising can cause you to trim down, there are certain areas of the body where it may be hard to lose weight no matter how diligent you are. Gender, genetics, or age can play a role in the struggle to lose weight. Additionally, women may be more prone to store fat in the thighs and buttocks. In contrast, men may develop an issue with added pounds in their midsection.

Whether youre a man or a woman, however, CoolSculpting may be a solution that can help you to get rid of stubborn fat in various areas of the body.

CoolSculpting, or cryolipolysis, is a fat reduction technique which freezes fat cells. During this process the fat cells die, effectively changing the shape and contour of the targeted area. The technology is FDA-approved and is safe and effective. There are specific areas for which treatment is approved including under the chin, under the jawline, thigh, abdomen, flank, bra fat, back fat, under the buttocks, and the upper arm.

Receiving treatment to reduce fat through CoolSculpting has several benefits.

Before receiving treatment, you will meet with a medical professional to develop a plan, including the area(s) you want to target during your appointment. During the session, you will be in a relaxed environment as the provider uses the CoolSculpting device to freeze the targeted fat cells. While receiving the treatment, you may feel different mild sensations such as slight pinching, tingling, stinging, pulling, intense cold, and tugging. The session will last about 35 minutes or longer, depending on the areas that are being targeted.

CoolSculpting has been shown to provide long-term, positive results. The procedure can produce a 20 25% reduction in fat for the treated area after just one treatment. Typically, most people start to notice changes between 1 3 months after treatment. Full results may be seen at six months post-treatment.

If CoolSculpting sounds interesting to you and you would like more information, contact Dr. Apesos to schedule an appointment.

Gemma Collins has revealed her hopes to become pregnant in her forties, pictured in November 2019.(Getty Images)

Gemma Collins has revealed she hopes to be pregnant next year when she turns 40.

The reality TV star has been trying to prepare her body in order to conceive and has lost nearly three stone on the advice of doctors.

Gemma believes if she could become pregnant, she could send a positive message to women who start a family later in their lives.

I would love to have a child, she told The Sun.

It would be great for me and such a positive message for all the girls out there who dont want to rush their life or their life has taken different a direction, like me whos put their career first.

But in my forties Id love everybody to see The GC walking around with a pram.

When it comes to conceiving a child, Gemma, who refers to herself as The GC, has had regular consultations with her doctor about her prospects, having suffered a number of miscarriages in her thirties.

And though shes been told it is possible for her to become pregnant doctors have advised losing weight could help her achieve her parenting dream.

I can definitely have a child, he just told me it would be easierwhen Im not carrying as much weight, she told The Sun.

He gave me the confidence not to panic about it. He told me to lose a few stone and it will help me.

And the lockdown period has provided Gemma with an opportunity to take stock of where she was in life and make some positive changes for the future.

Story continues

Things are a lot calmer now, she said. Im cooking my own meals at home, riding my bike in the countryside and enjoying long walks. I am established. My career has gone above and beyond.

An additional factor in Gemmas journey to motherhood is that she hasPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a condition that affects how a woman's ovaries work and can impact fertility.

Gemma was 28 when she was diagnosed with the condition after becoming alarmed by sudden weight gain.

She says: I was always very slim. But I really started piling on the weight and Ill never forget it.

I said to my mum, Have you shrunk my clothes?. She said, I hate to break this to you,but youre putting on weight.

Figures frompcos-uk.org.uksuggest that one in 10 women have PCOS, which roughly translates into 3.5 million women in the UK, and makes it the most common female hormone condition.

Symptoms can include irregular periods, weight gain and excess hair growth.

Some women with the condition can experience difficultygetting pregnant as a result of irregular ovulation or failure to ovulate.

Women who are overweight and trying to get pregnant will be advised to lose weight before trying fertility drugs or treatments, explains Mr Parijat Bhattacharjee, consultant gynaecologist at BMI The Clementine Churchill Hospital and BMI Syon Clinic in West London.

Losing weight might be enough to restart ovulation, and fertility drugs are also most effective on women with a healthy body mass index.

According to the NHS medications are also available to treat symptoms such as excessive hair growth, irregular periods and fertility problems.

If fertility medications are not effective, a simple surgical procedure called laparoscopic ovarian drilling (LOD) may be recommended.

This involves using heat or a laser to destroy the tissue in the ovaries that's producing androgens, such as testosterone.

For women who do get pregnant, being a healthy weight helps to reduce the risk of complications throughout the pregnancy, including gestational diabetes, high blood pressure and pre-eclampsia, Mr Bhattacharjee adds.

Peanuts For Weight Loss

Peanuts are rich in fibre and proteins which increases satiety that can aid in weight loss. Also, as per the study published in the Journal of Nutrition, high protein foods help in burning calories. The fibre content of peanuts enhances the flow of bowel movement and thereby promotes smooth digestion which in turn help in losing weight. Also, the presence of healthy fats, reduce the risk of obesity.

Peanuts also provide good energy to the body as they are rich in healthy carbs. This nut is also good for hair growth as it comes along withL-arginine. The presence of manganese in peanuts also help lower blood sugar level, therefore it can serve as an ideal snack for diabetes patients too. An important thing to note is that peanuts are high in calories, therefore it should not be eaten in excess, a handful of peanuts should be enough to provide you with its beneficial properties.

Outside of a few missed short putts on Friday, Bryson DeChambeau has done just about everything right through 36 holes at the RBC Heritage. Hes unleashing the kraken, as he calls it, only when necessary. Hes laying back and playing for position, then attacking pins. While hes not making as many putts as hed like, hes still making plenty, enough to be one back of Webb Simpsons lead of 12 under.

Following a second-round 64 at Harbour Town, DeChambeau, who now weighs a beefy 240 pounds, was asked how much fun it is to be able to eat whatever you want. Its everyones dream, chowing down on whatever, whenever, and not becoming a pig. DeChambeau is living it right now, and he explained it as only he can.

It's nice. I get to eat -- it's a two-to-one carb-to-protein ratio, and I literally just have at it, he said. I eat whatever I want whenever. Obviously, I'm trying to control the intake of sugars, but carbs are fine because I'm obviously sweating like crazy out here. So I just eat as much as I want right now. It's nice. And I don't gain weight. I actually lose weight. I've lost a little bit of weight this week.

That quote led to a hilarious exchange between DeChambeau and the reporter who originally asked him about eating whatever he wants:

Q: But how much of the weight gain that you've done here over the last few months is attributable to just caloric intake? I mean, obviously, you've been working out and all that too, but that must be a big part of it. Does it mean eating whatever you want?

BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU: Are you saying that I'm fat?

BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU: I'm kidding.

Well played Bryson, well played. Of course, his comedy routine didnt deter him from explaining that much of his weight gain is all muscle.

Look, my body fat percentage has maybe gone up a percent or two, but it's not gone up that much at all, he said. I would say a lot of it has been attributed to muscle. It's a lot of muscle. People don't believe me when I say it, but you don't understand my work ethic at that point if you're thinking it's not muscle.
