[00:30] About Jonathan Shane’s Journey To The Health Space

  • Growing up, Jonathan developed the subconscious feeling of not being in control of his relationship to food.
  • He started emotional eating, and at age 14, he was 260 pounds with a 50-inch waist.
  • Jonathan’s doctor told him that he was killing himself.
  • So, he decided to lose weight. After cutting fat from his diet, he lost 100 pounds. However, his hormones were out of whack.
  • Jonathan’s binge eating tendencies built up because his ghrelin and leptin were all over the place.
  • Eventually, Jonathan found the ketogenic diet. He went nine months without relapsing on his bulimia when Jonathan started keto. Tomorrow will be three years since his last relapse.

 

[05:35] The Importance of Faith In Order To Have A Mental, Physical, and Overall Health Transformation

  • Humans are powerful creatures, and most of us don't realize what we're capable of as human beings.
  • However, we are innately broken in terms of a moral construct. It’s hard to build something on our own that is sustainable long-term.
  • A higher power will help create a moral construct.
  • It's absolutely huge to have faith in something bigger than yourself.

[11:55] You Have To Work Inside Out When It Comes To Losing Weight and Having More Energy

  • True change starts with identity.
  • People have this really bad habit of thinking that the outside actions are going to change their hearts.
  • True pure faith will produce the desire to do the right thing.
  • First, you need to let your internal identity change. So, it’s time to create an identity where you accept and love who you are.
  • Outward change is a temporary fallacy, and inward change is what manifests long-term growth.

[15:50] The Most Common Mistakes People Make When Trying The Keto Diet

  • The first mistake people make is fasting out of pressure and not doing it off of innate hunger signals and satiation.
  • A lot of people develop really bad relationships with food, even if they've never had them.
  • Many people abuse fasting. Instead, you should be listening to your body and letting your body guide you on what fasting should look like.
  • Another mistake people make on keto is not eating enough fat.
  • Also, you should not overconsume fat when trying keto. Eight hundred calorie coffees are not the way to go.

[19:40] What Are Healthy Keto Products? Tips For Shopping At The Grocery Store

  • Always start on the outer part of the store.
  • Avoid everything that is white.
  • Meats and colored vegetables are what you should stick with.
  • You shouldn’t stroll through the aisles of the grocery store.
  • We are marketed to want the more attractive things first.
  • The farthest part of the store is the meat section – there’s a reason for that.
  • Lastly, watch out for seed oils.

[25:15] Are You Having Trouble Sticking With A Keto Lifestyle? Jonathan Has Advice For You

  • First, start internally. Then, work on the external.
  • You need a ‘why’ for trying the keto lifestyle.
  • Jonathan says you should be able to maintain a healthy weight and a healthy diet 90% of the time. The only way you can do this is by having a why.
  • The only way you can maintain your weight loss is by changing your identity.
  • Also, Jonathan says you need to work on stress management.
  • Lastly, it’s time to stick with your food list. You can find Jonathan’s list here: https://www.theketoroad.com/

[29:55] What Keto Can Do To Transform Your Health Completely

  • To lose weight, you have to change your habits completely.
  • When you change your habits, you will have a total mindset shift.
  • Jonathan has had a client that lost 200 pounds. She is always chasing the better version of herself.
  • Anybody can lose weight on keto as long as they work on an identity switch.
  • It’s time to innercise before you exercise.

[33:45] You Need To Incorporate A Fitness Protocol With A Keto Lifestyle  

  • You don’t need fitness to lose weight. However, physical activity is a pillar for long-term success.
  • Your body needs activity for healthy joints and bone density.
  • You want to maintain healthy muscle, tendon, and ligament tissue.
  • Many people make exercise excuses. If you want to exercise, then you will find time to do it.

 

[38:20] There’s No Finish Line – You Can Continue To Grow

  • A keto lifestyle is a continual race. You aren’t going to be perfect.
  • If you are perfect, there is no room to get better.
  • So, every single day is an opportunity to improve.
  • A lot is going on in the world right now. All you can do is control your response to your environment.
