Jimmy Moore’s 6-Month Nutritional Ketosis Lecture In Brisbane With Slides
It’s been several weeks since I have returned home from my glorious 3-week lecture series through Eastern Australia and I’m almost all the way back in the groove again syncing my body clock with Eastern United States time. But the entire “Low Carb Down Under” (LCDU) Tour experience (listen to my retrospective LLVLC Show podcast about my trip to Oz) was magical in ways that I won’t soon forget. I was privileged to share with the beautiful people in Melbourne, Fish Creek, Byron Bay, Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane about my personal low-carb journey as well as a 6-month update on my current n=1 experiment of “nutritional ketosis” (NK) which curiously enough has been getting quite a bit of attention in the blogosphere as of late surrounding whether it is the ketosis or calorie reduction that has helped to bring about the improvements in my weight and health. I’ll be exploring this topic further in my upcoming CarbSmart column publishing soon.
One of the conveners and hosts of the back end of the LCDU Tour was a fitness industry veteran from Brisbane, Australia named Jamie Hayes (who did a fabulous job with his own nutritional health and fitness “rant” lecture). His sons took some fabulous professional video footage of the talks in Brisbane and Jamie inserted the slide show presentations into the video footage, including prominent ones from a few names you’ll recognize: David Gillespie, Dr. Anastasia Boulais and Jamie Scott. My final Australian talk on my 6-month update of “nutritional ketosis” was captured on video along with the slides from that presentation and I wanted to share that 39-minute video with you in this blog post along with detailed bulletpoint notes below to recap what I shared with the Aussies:
I’m considering given my data to a researcher for a case study
I want to show people eating this way isn’t a crazy diet
This can be implemented in a sustainable way
I probably won’t need to stay at 85% fat forever
I’m already seeing better insulin sensitivity from doing NK
Feel free to share your feedback about my 6-month nutritional ketosis n=1 experiment update lecture in the comments section below. I look forward to sharing even more updates about my testing in 2013 as I continue to gather data about how this is going. If you want to hear more about my NK experience, my friend and fellow health podcaster Abel James interviewed me on his “Fat Burning Man Show” today. Take a listen!
Ken and I would happily submit “testimonials” to any publication you produce. We continue to be amazed at our health and energy/stamina with nutritional ketosis. Just the story of me doing a century bike ride in a fasted state at age almost-60 is a great anecdote in support of what you are also experiencing.
This is GOLD Jimmy!!!! Very good lecture. It’s awesome! I just cannot express in word’s how proud I am of you! Thank you so much for your inspiration! I know that a lot of this is exactly where I need to be. And I can tell already in the 3 weeks that I’ve started my own nutritional ketosis experiment that it is working. Personally speaking, I’ve lost 15 pounds in 17 days now. My energy is through the roof. Matter of fact my doctor said that I need to slow down because my body is not ready for this kind of energy. I am sleeping better than ever. I no longer need a nap during the daytime. I may not consume as much food or fat as you do daily but I am consuming approximately the same percentages as you are right now. I notice a huge difference if I veer off that course in a negative way, in anyway. I was stuck where you were stuck, after initial weight loss doing Atkin’s it seemed to stop working for me as well. Now I am starting to understand why! Even though I had been doing Atkin’s for years now to control my type 2 diabetes.
So now that my back is pretty much healed from multiple surgery’s… I too plan on starting up on exersize. In the past what has worked for me is starting slow. Like promising myself 10 mins a day or every other day. Slowly I worked myself up to an hour a day. No more than 3-5 times a week. Now I get a little excited and want to do more, but I try to refrain from “over” doing it. Because I am queen of “over” doing it. And is how I hurt myself in the first place. Right now I am just promising to keep my body moving most of the day. Which is easy with a 1 year old and a 5 year “girls”. And being a home-maker.
Before I started this, it took a gallon of coffee in the morning to get me motivated. I also, was napping nearly 2 hours daily! I had insomnia. I was sick daily! I got cold’s and couldn’t manage anything mentally! I was a wreck and depressed. Now I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. So I want you to know that you are affecting lives, Jimmy. And I thank the Lord everyday for people like you who go out, test, research, and even experiment to find the TRUTH! That is what we all need to hear. A big serving of truth!!!
So thank you, kindly and deeply! ~ All my love, Kisha

Jimmy, my friend, I am very sorry to hear about all the weight and diet trouble you have been having. I do have very good news for you though.
I found an approach you could try to get over your eating disorder.
“Briefly, the so-called intermittent fasting does not provide any additional benefit to what complete fasting does . . . it is a poor man’s derivative of it. People who are drawn to it I think should train their bodies to eat moderately (i.e., small meals) rather than resorting to eating massive amounts of food in one shot, and then compensating by starving themselves for 16-24 hours and repeating the process day after day (though a complete fast can fix eating disorders like this).”
