What a great video. No pseudo-science, no trying to hawk a book or a diet-fad. Just straight up facts and difficult truths (I am probably not tracking my eating properly!).

I just decided to have a cheat day after finding out I went up from 222 to 2229 all of a sudden so I’m changing things up and I had a cheat day today

I haven't been exercising or getting enough sleep because I'm stressed and trying to fit studying for class. This summer I'm not taking any classes and solely focusing on exercising and resistance training. I'm eating 1200 cals a day. I've been experiencing plateau for a couple months. Was 189 lbs june 2020 now I'm 157 lbs june 2021. But I've been plateauing since january from 155-158 lbs. Do you think my plan for summer will work if I stick to 1200 cals/day. I'm 5'4" female age 31 y.o. Thank you.

Many videos that address plateaus are putting the blame on the dieter. We come to the internet to find out WHY we have a plateau and it's because of a slowing metabolism. I know WHY, just help me break through.

Ask any kid how to lose weight, they know, 'stop eating'. For some reason people ignore the studies that prove calorie restriction and exercise don't work (reference the biggest loser study) and the short to mid term weight loss of gastric bypass surgeries by simulating fasting. Fasting also cures all but the most damaged t2 diabetics and is liberating, you don't have to keep stopping for meals, just keep doing what you like!
