Hi, how are you?
if you are new to my channel my name is Laura but you can call me Lala Cata
and today's video you are probably looking for
because December just finished
and I think everyone overeats in December
and maybe you want to lose a few pounds
or maybe your new year's resolution is to be healthy and lose weight
and be fit, or maybe you've heard about the Keto diet
so if you want to know more about this diet and how to lose weight Very fast
keep watching the video.
To begin with I'm going to tell you how I heard about this diet
and basically it was because
a friend did this diet 2 weeks and she lost 22 pounds
and to me that was impossible. When have you
heard about someone losing so much weight in so little time?
I thought the diet was super bad for your organism
since you lose so much weight so fast
later on my maid had a knee problem and she had to lose weight
so she was going to eat healthy
but since I had heard about the Keto diet
I told her about the diet, not knowing much about it
and I researched a little bit and sent it to her.
So she started the diet and lost
18 pounds in 2 weeks
11 pounds in the first week
that to me in unbelievable
like how? how? how? I don't know
I don't understand and without even doing exercise
or starving
then one day my cousin told me we wanted to lose a little bit of weight
and I became like the influencer of Keto diet
as If i knew everything about it and had done it myself
So that day my cousin told me "I have no idea what to eat
I don't know exactly how this diet works"
So I researched and asked my friend
and the main reason why I didn't do the diet myself at first
was because I'm supposedly in my ideal weight
and what I needed to lose was body fat
not my weight
and since this is a diet
based in eating 75% fat. I thought the diet
made you lose weight but raised your body fat %
and I needed the complete opposite
So the day my cousin began the diet I researched everything about it
I became like an expert on Keto
or at least that's what I think, probably not.
So when I researched I found out that the diet was
actually a fat burner diet
and that is why it works so well and fast
so if you want to lose fat you have to eat fat. Which doesn't
make sense to me yet
I started the diet the 18th of December and then I thought
why would I start a diet when Christmas and New Year's is so close
I thought I wasn't gonna make it.
But I managed to do it and it wasn't difficult at all
I just grabbed my computer to explain the science behind this way of life
because it's literally a way of life
It's like someone who is vegan
or vegetarian
but the people who are "ketogenic"
I don't know what the people who do this for 20 years are called
personally I am not doing it as a way of life, nor would I do it that way
but whatever
the point of the Ketogenic diet
is to put your body in a
metabolic state called ketosis
our bodies usually burn carbs to obtain energy
but when you don't consume carbs or sugar
and everything you can't eat on keto
your body grabs all the fat you eat
that as I told you is 75% of the diet
and creates molecules called ketones
that are used as energy. When I read this
what I conclude is that your body instead
of grabbing the fat as fat it transforms it
so all that fat is what gives you energy
and not what makes you fat
now I'm going to tell you what to eat, because when you hear that you have to eat 75% fat
you immediately think you have to drink olive oil or something
and well, no.
It's 75% fat, 20% protein, and 5% carbs
when I say carbs I don't mean go and eat a slice of bread
this carbs are the ones that come from vegetables
I didn't even know that vegetables had carbs
and the best ones to eat are the green ones
because I believe they have less carbs just a little of tomatoes and a little of red bell peppers
you can't eat beets or carrots because they have a lot of sugar
you can't eat fruits either
because they also contain a lot a lot of sugar
and that not only makes you fat (in this diet) but takes you out of ketosis
if you want fruits the only ones you can have are berries
you can't have a lot of them, just a few
if you can't live without fruits
it is basically eating a lot of avocados because they have a lot of healthy fat
not like bacon fat that you can also eat
if you want to have bacon for breakfast you can
in fact that is what I do myself
because I love it
butter is also really good and any fish is also very good because they have
healthy fat as well.
olives have fat as well and cheeses
I believe parmesan has a lot of fat
usually as snack I eat nuts
the one you can have the least is peanuts because they have a lot of carbs
all the ones that are high in fat and low in carbs are the best ones to eat.
and proteins are just the basic proteins as in chicken, steak, and fish.
you can't drink any milk
except unsweetened almond milk
if you eat sugar or carbs, the body automatically
stops doing ketosis and all the fat is going to make you fat
that is basically what you should be eating. I'm no expert
in fact If i were you I would research a lot before doing this diet
another this is that due to the change of foods
you might get dizzy the first 3 or 4 days
and even get migraines
or weak, but then you get a ton of energy
like right now I'm full of energy and it's not because I have had 8 coffees
it's literally because the diet gives you energy
because ketones give a lot of energy
I got a migraine but it was nothing really
it wasn't even migraine it was just something weird in my head
a little uncomfortable.
I was able to do exercise the first days. Some people feel to weak to exercise
I feel like it was because I was already doing exercise before the diet
so it wasn't a big change
the other thing is that as I told you I thought
this diet wasn't healthy
but apparently it is super healthy
apparently
to me it still doesn't make sense that this diet is healthy
because it has a lot of fat and I actually thought my cholesterol was going to go up
and it was going to cause like heart disease, BUT that isn't the case
it's actually the complete opposite and it also helps to cure
and prevent a lot of diseases you should research
I have been doing this diet for 2 weeks now
and the day before I got on the scale to see the difference
and the next day I had lost 1.2 pounds
obviously that pound was from water because that is the first thing you lose
and throughout this diet you have to stay super hydrated because this diet dehydrates
you should also eat pink salt (himalayan) or salt
because salt has a lot of electrolytes
and the himalayan salt is the one that has the most electrolytes
because the diet lowers your electrolytes
i don't even know what electrolytes are
i just know i have to eat them in this diet
So first day I lost 1 pound, next day I lost 2.2 pounds
the third day I got stuck
and the fourth day I had lost a total of 4.4 pounds
and usually the last few pounds you want to lose are the most difficult
and I lost them in 4 days
If i'm honest i'm stuck in those pounds still
but as I told you I don't need to lose weight. Just fat.
you immediately start seeing changes with this diet
I look at myself in the mirror and I see I'm getting slimmer
or I grab this part of my arm and I feel there's less skin
and this is where you start noticing if you are losing fat
also in your hips and thighs
so even if I'm stuck scale wise
and you might get frustrated with this
that is not what you should be focusing on.
Focus on when you look in the mirror if you are seeing changes
my birthday is the 1st of February
so what I think I'm going to do is
to do the diet until like 3 days before
and start adding like brown rice or something to the diet
because I don't what to do this forever because I don't think it is that fun
and i don't feel comfortable not eating carbs either
so I need to decide what to do maybe I'll stop and eat a cake on my birthday
or maybe I will keep going I don't know I have to see myself when I reach that day
and make a decision
maybe stop and start eating healthy
I just want to get to the point I want to get
I want to look at myself in the mirror and feel fine
I have never actually felt bad with my body
and I have never been skinny
I have always looked at myself in the mirror and felt fine
because what matters to me the most Is how I feel mentally
but I have always wanted to be healthier and skinnier
if your mind is healthy and you have my same goal
of being healthy
then you would be able to be good body wise
because you can lose weight but not be healthy
don't focus to much on instagram
you should do it because you want to do it
and not because you want to be hot
WELL ACTUALLY, that is fine too. If you want to feel sexy go for it
because obviously everyone wants to look in the mirror and feel beautiful
but it comes within
do it for the right reasons don't do it because
there's a guy you like and you want to lose weight
lastly i'm going to leave a few videos showing my
breakfast, lunch, and dinner of my first week of Keto
so that you guys
have an idea of what you should be eating
because everyone who want to start the diet now
are always like "I have no idea what to eat"
so that is why I'm showing you.
I'm going to show you what worked for me
I don't know if it will work for you
keep in mind your height and weight
I have not done it like I should eat this many carbs or protein
or I can only eat 5 olives and not 6 because I come out of ketosis
I haven't done it like that because I feel
that if I do it that way I'm going to get bored
however, if you want to do it that way you will see faster results
you can look that up in web pages and apps
research A LOT because I know nothing, only what I have researched
and what has worked for me
so look at the clips
ignore the background noise I can't do anything about it
there are some frogs in my backyard and they make noises all night long
I'm finally done with Keto day 1
I actually feel super good I just got some uncomfortable pain in my head
for a few minutes right here
I bought this for my snack
I just ate a little and this has
peanuts, cashews and almonds
I just got home and made myself dinner
I made 2 ribs, olives
this is cheese but I heat it up
because I love it that way
don't judge me
and I also made some mushrooms
in butter and added parmesan cheese
and himalayan salt
It's the next day and I feel good hadn't have headaches or dizziness
but it is only 10 am
so I don't know if i'm going to feel bad later
I have to eat in 8 minutes so I have to show you fast
because I have to go to the dentist
I made myself to pieces of bacon avocado with salt, lime
olive oil, and pepper
Burnt eggs because I hate eggs do I would rather
them taste burnt that eggy
here I have sparkling water with lime and salt
yes, that is how I drink sparkling water
ignore me and my socks on the back
this is my lunch
again sparkling water with salt and lime
meat, olives and vegetables with butter
It's 10 am and I am going to have breakfast with her
I am having burnt eggs again
I added cheese
I also added mushrooms and I also made 2 pieces of bacon
and I added cream cheese to the eggs, I really don't know why I did that
but, let's see how
creams cheese with eggs tastes like
I just tried it and it is very good, try it trust me
I forgot to show you what I had for lunch but it was like a lasagna but with eggplant
it is this and it has cheese and tomato sauce
and that is it
i just got back from the movies and had no idea what to eat
and then I decided to order a hotdog without the bread
so basically just the sausage
and I added mayo and mustard to the sausage
today I had lunch at "El Corral" which is a burger
place here in Colombia
and they give you the option of changing the bread for lettuce
so I just removed tomato sauce
onions because I don't like them
and added cheese and bacon
for dinner we went to Frisby which is a
famous chicken place here in Colombia as well
but the only sell fried chicken with a crust
and asked if they had chicken with no crust
and they have one called "Tosti" that they literally
grab the chicken and fry it and it is amazing!!
Ok guys and that is everything for today's videos
if you have any questions that I might be able to answer
or if you are going to start this diet let me know in the comments
so that we can be together in this journey
in this new year 2019
I feel that this year is going to be amazing. I don't know why.
so that is all for today
and I'll see you in the next one. BYEE.
