How to eat less without being hungry (+ what if these tips don't work for me??)

❤️ We help women move from binge eating, food obsession and yo-yo dieting to a 'normal' and healthy relationship with food. Without relying on rules, restrictions or willpower.

There was a mistake made in this video: One study showed that 39% of high fibre treatments (not participants) led to a reduction in appetite and 22% showed a reduced dietary intake.

As an older guy, I realize I am not your target audience but I wanted to thank you for your videos. This has been my struggle off and on for a long time.

Food has taken over my life, my mind, my body. I’m stuck

I personally experienced that my hunger/appetite is blunted too much when I go on a very low carb diet. And I probably overeat calories if I allowed myself to eat both calories and carbohydrates as much as I wanted.

If I wanted to eat less in a sensible way I would:
- try keeping net carbs under 80gr a day
-not drinking your calories
-no snacking
-fewer processed foods overal
-focus on getting enough protein
-fiber rich, low calorie density vegetables are the co star of the meal (protein rich food is the lead)
-cafeine only in the morning. Cafeine can improve mood, energy levels and reduce hunger, but it can also interfere with sleep.

you missed a very important part about calories. we digest the foods from calories differently and in different amounts. for example something that is highly processed like a chocolate bar, we digest almost all of the calories but corn or other vegetables, we digest only a portion of those calories. meaning the less processed the food, the more calories we can eat. also, set point can be altered either with over eating or under eating. see weight loss biologist Giles Yeo

Rachael, your channel has been so insanely helpful. Your advice and videos have seriously helped me in my journey with food and has helped me improve my nutritional decisions. Thank you! :)

I just love your videos and what you teach so so much. Sometimes when I click on videos I worry that they will say something that will make me feel bad about myself or my path, but I always know I will feel safe and comforted whenever I watch yours❤️ During the time I have been subscribed to you, I have learned so much and been directed to such a happy, hopeful and peaceful place in my life, and I am so grateful to you! I am able to finally have an understanding of why I do what I do in relation to food, I could fill this whole comment with discoveries I made that I never knew were possible. Thank you for being such a light to this part of the internet and the guidance you have blessed me (and so many others) with❤️🥲 if anyone has suggestions for YouTubers, books, podcasts etc that teach a similar message to Rachel, I would love to hear it. I haven’t been able to find anyone else that rings with so much truth.

A note about set-point theory: A lot of metabologists agree that mteabolism can only slow down so much in order to fight back against a deficit; it's more or less negligible. Giles Yeo suggests that set point theory more or less has to do with the dozens of decisions one makes over the course of their lives, vs the body having a predetermined set weight at which it feels comfortable.

Hi Rachael I want to share my appreciation and gratitude towards you I’ve come across your channel and listened to your story and other videos I can resonate with everything you’ve been through, it felt comforting that someone understands. I’ve tried connecting with you through the links in your description however I’m not able to, kindly if you are reading this could you direct me 🙏🏻❤️

[misaachaan]

[An_Drea_Calling]

Totally off topic: You remind me of Natasha Oceane (looks and voice).

Enlightening perspective. I appreciate. Welldone

I hated hearing about the set point weight while in recovery - I had no idea where my weight was going to go back to as I've been very heavy at some points. I'm now about 19 months in recovery and my weight has actually gone back to the weight I started at before this episode of restrictive eating.
I'm not counting calories now and I seem to be within a 5lb range. Sadly, I'd love to eat less but my body doesnt like it and I have times ended up binging.

[MrQuizGerman]

Everytime i make the intention to eat less, i even get more hungrier and my thoughts go crazy about food all day.

[madisonbridges]

Yes please! Thank you for this video. Would love another on set point theory, and how to lose weight if your body weight doesn’t seem to be decreasing even though you’ve lowered calories….

[clarasayk]

Any tipps on how to eat less (and maybe even experience less hunger) when being in an environment where everyone else is eating much less. E.g. when I'm at my in-laws and they only have breakfast and dinner and nothing in between except sweets / cookies which I don't like. I already tried drinking loads of water and black coffee as well as sneaking protein bars but I just can't seem to train myself to be less hungry. Would it be a good idea to try eating like that all the time so I get used to it? I also experience low blood sugar very strongly (headaches, dizziness, . stomach pains) so I find that quite hard to tolerate.

[lolabus]

I eat really less but my weight is same, I really want to video about this topic☺️

[romanticdove]

I want to lose weight. How would you best go about this? So far im actually finding im less hungry with more water and less carbs but i want to make sure im not going to plateau.

[marycansing]

As a "Mary" (literally), I feel this video is very accurate.
