What are you losing weight for ?
These people clearly know nothing about dieting or staying in shape. Probably all from the "beautiful at any size" side of the internet. You keep doing you man.
@nel dormiveglia you people know very little about fitness. You read one article and think you're experts. This channel clearly isn't for you so move on.
2 sugars in each coffee?!
Man up!.. Drink it Black!
You have beautiful eyes...😍
if I only had 1200 calories to spend, I would not be using half of it on a sandwich
what would you do with it?
@@whiteout0111 Shrimp& veggie teriyaki.
@@whiteout0111 OMAD and eat all 1200 at dinner
@@appleintosh OMAD, with a heavy focus on protein and fats. Although going down to 1200kcal doesn’t seem maintainable, unless your maintenace calories are like ~1600 kcal.
@@Carbidestruck even 1609 calories are low. They experimented on people with 1650-1709 calories per day and they went a little bonkers. Restriction never works.

TWO in each!! 😮😮😮
Decaffeinated at that..
what a fckin joker yep
It was a waste 🥹
i have less and i still put sugar in my coffee 😭😭 cannot drink it without sugar
Bro put sugar in his coffee and spent half his calories on a single sandwich
bro i eat less calories and yet i still eat more than this guy💀💀💀💀
my go-to type meals are eggs, mushrooms, spinach, sauce of ur choice, onion and fry it
on the side add cucumber, tomato, lettuce, spring onion, raddish and salad cream (only a little salad cream, you can opt for balsamic vinegar)
this is a rough layout and its under 200-300 cals
you dont only need a banana and two coffees for breakfast, get creative witb your resources
I like my salads and genuinely prefer to snack on things like tomatoes, nectarines, bananas, cucumber slices, carrots, etc
things like lunches and dinners i eat a little more but honestly
if i have less callories than him, and even i can afford to have something's like popsicles, and or the odd biscuits, you guys can too!
you dont need to focus on meat and stuff, its important yes but i find it more filling to not waste all your cals on a sandwich, yk?

@@juwo7569 he won’t. He is in relative deficit, he will be fine. Research states til today anything up to 1000cals is absolutely deficit and that ruins hormonal balances and reduces MBR. 1000cals or more, is relative deficit and it’s fine for weight loss.
@@SPCTherapyPeople do water fasts which apparently detox the body so is there a really issue in having around 1000 calories each day for a few weeks let’s say?
@@jgooner894 water diet or fast whatever people refer to it as is fine for a very short period, almost like an emergency intervention for someone who’s life is at risk due to excessive weight.

600calorie sandwich ain't it, bro could've had a whole meal with those calories
fr I’m tryna lose weight and on a calorie budget of 1,299 and have had pozole with tortillas for that amount of calories
A sandwich IS a whole meal. But I agree this is not the way to eat for weight loss.
When you are completely clueless, but confident.
Let him enjoy his food 🙄 CICO and variety of nutrients is important and hes doing that, its not like he eats this for every single day
😭😭
@Caterpillartears but it's so miserable 😢 we just want to show him better options. For one greek yogurt with roasted edamame. Egg whites and an egg with a low carb tortilla he can use two slices of ham and have so many left over calories. Greek yogurt icecream bars. Cucumber slices & Carrot chips with hummus (I use zucchini's i do not like cucumbers), chicken or tuna salad light mayo.
Bro put all stats in confidence, 0 in inteligence, and then made the most punchable face ever in the character creation screen 💀
He shouldn't be eating 1200 calories, that's the very low end of what a woman should eat to lose weight unless she's very short. As a man unless he's very short he shouldn't go lower then 2000 calories. He needs to do more cardio or just move more instead of such few calories, hes gonna lose alot of muscle like this. Avocado isn't really a weightloss food its the most calorie dense fruit, its more for a bulk. He needs to watch coach Greg and try his cookbook
This is actually the edible version of depression I swear 😭💀

Bad choices, bad distribution of calories, and hungry all day
What’s wrong with being hungry- just suck it up and go on with your day
@@frogshavehats4994 if you like being hungry, suit yourself. Most people don´t and there is no need for that
@@Kinonolfa_ well you get results tho?
@@frogshavehats4994 yeah, for sure. If you eat the correct calorie intake, exercise and choose your foods well, you're gonna see the results. If you starve yourself you're gonna see the results, but they won't be as good. You're gonna lose muscle and with no proper carbs consumption you're gonna have more loose skin. Also, if you starve yourself it is harder to maintain the results since you'll have more constant cravings. As a result, you're more likely to get back at bad habits after a while
@@Kinonolfa_ so how is it a bad choice? His other videos seems to show that he’s going to the gym
An active dude should NEVEEEERRRR consume 1200 calories a day
For me, 1225 cal is maintenance cal
Uhhh, that is very false. The amount of calories someone should eat is highly dependant on a lot of factors.
and by active i assume you mean someone trying to lose weight/fat?
@@sherman2157 yes your activity losing weight

Tutorial on how to be starving all day
Edit: I don’t think people understand exaggeration. Obviously you won’t starve to death, but for a grown and active adult, 1200 is not sustainable
starving would be the least side effect I’d be concerned about
If you're already low fat to begin with you won't be starving on this, also some people have to be starving, weight cutting, fasting etc. Why watch a 1200 calorie dieting video and then cry about how much food you have to cut out?

Buddy sounds like he’s about to pass out
1,200 calories is my deficit intake but I’m also a 5’-0” female. I can’t imagine that’s enough for any adult male.
I’m doing the same. I’m 5’0, I eat 1200-1300 cal daily. I weight train (current weight 147, was 137 before weight training) and I keep watching the scale go up and I’m getting nervous although my clothes (size 0-4) still fit.
@@Tifinee76 I'm no fitness expert but I'd say that's likely due to muscle gain. Awesome job!
Even for you it's barely enough ! I'm 5'4 and I know my minimum caloric intake is around 1500 calories per day for my body to work normally. Just make sure you eat enough and don't starve yourself (I went through that phase in my weight loss so I would understand how tempting it would be)
@@Tifinee76 I have a background in fitness training and was a trainer in college. What you're seeing in 100% muscle gain, especially if your clothes are fitting properly. A lb of muscle and a lb of fat weight the same, but the visual mass of fat is essentially double that of muscle.
As a 5'10 guy here in Türkiye I go to the gym even tho I'm 16 and I have to run 2 miles a day and I only eat 1700 calories of food everyday not to mention the fact I get 4 hour sleep
ive never felt so depressed watching a video like this..
Literally lol i go thru this everyday and sometimes eat yogurt for dinner like tf
@Lulu Del Ray what do you mean? coffee with sugar, banana, sandwhich wit vegies, jerky, and some grams of beef and peas? it was depressing
@@edgarsaldana_ how is it depressing?? all he did was eat according to the caloric intake he set lmao
@rheasserenity the meals were depressing bro, read the comments.. like its discipline yeah but the meals were so boring and depressing, thats what it is lmao read the comments
I think being obese is more depressing but go off ig
Alternative title: how to make sure your balls dont work
Stop lying
@@GameN3rdz ? it's common knowledge that being on a super low calorie deficit kills your hormones and sex drive
I would opt for stevia or Splenda instead of sugar with coffee and would have eggs for breakfast protein. A nutritious salad or bowl instead of a sandwich without bread would be a better lunch option, and chicken would be a better meat option than beef because it is leaner and has more protein.
Rye bread is great, i find it fills me up better so i eat less
If anyone puts you on a 1200 diet (except for in special circumstances), find a new coach

@@danieljackson1104 if you don't mind, can you give an example of what you eat throughout a day? Genuinely curious
there are many studies on how eating too little calories affects your health, behavior and mood. changing your body is not about loosing weight fast, its about learning how to listen to your hunger cues and choosing balanced meals. ESPECIALLY as a man, please don't restrict yourself to 1200 cals a day. I've worked with several nutritionists and health experts in mental health clinics and they would be absolutely shocked by this. a deficit of 300- 500 cals is absolutely enough to loose extra weight over time. stay safe.
Exactly this! Perfect explanation; a 1200 calorie per day restriction is insane. Cutting out 300-500 calories per day is way more realistic and healthy for you in the long run.
This is terrible for hormones. This will lead to insomnia and low s3x drive and worse mood. He is eating processed foods every meal and he haves sugar with coffee which spikes insulin very high which is terrible for diabetics. 166.000 likes? This shows how misinformed society is but it makes sense everyone has rimples and liver damage and insulin resistance. The food industry is evil.
Women need to hold more fat. A man can live at 4% body fat 😂
Pig comment right here. You’d lose 2 pounds a month 🤦♂️
Bro has 1200 calories to go off (low enough as it is for a male) and uses half on his sandwich for lunch. Real smart
everyone’s different, maybe he likes sandwiches 🤷♀️ also i think he’s just showing it for someone who would want to do it not actually practicing it himself
Bro isn’t paying much attention to macros or focusing on nutrition dense foods that will keep you satiated longer
@@yutasnonexistentlines4904this is not sustainable. That sandwich is not filling. He could have a much better meal using far less calories offering more protein and making him more satiated.
😂😂
Yall haters
If you are a regular adult who is not suffering from any ailments that prevent you from eating more, please DO NOT restrict yourself to 1200 calories a day.
I just realized i've been eating less than this guy… oops 😅
Particularly short people (5’2 and below), especially women might be somewhere around this number, but the majority of people should be eating more than this
People don't realize that weight loss doesn't mean living healthier.
@@buffkangaroodog Indeed, 1200 calories a day keeps me at 125lbs at 5'2...Short women exist, Destinee haha. I put on more muscle to increase my BMR to allow for 1500, but it still is a small amount. Sticking to a ketogenic diet makes the amount go farther since I'm focusing on healthy fats like avocados, olives, and egg yokes coupled with meat and cruciferous vegetables.
girl ive been eating around 600cals a day for 2 weeks and im fine, stop spreading miss information
If a coach tells you to eat below 1500 cal as a man. Then find a new coach
Because listening to some rando in the comments is better 🤔
Even 1500 wtf? Im at 2350 and losing 0,5kg per week
I was told about 800-900
@@kikikiki8381800-900 will cause you to gain weight later on because you’ll eat it all back the second you stop. you also might not loose much because it sends the body into starving mode&he stores more.been there,done that.
@@jos-josradvanji6203 The starving mode thing is a myth. It's only true if you eat in a massive deficit for long enough to have very little fat reserves left to burn.
The reasons people regain weight after drastic diets are much simpler: people tend to overeat after undereating. Studies have been done on that, most people end up eating way more calories than before they started being on a diet.
Still, 800-900 calories is insane, I wouldn't even recommend that to a slightly chubby midget.
That beef looks like a lot of calories, more than he's accounting for.
Agreed. How is 200g of beef 290cals? That’s impossible.
Had to scroll down way too far to see this
This is what I came here for. Can't believe it took this far to see it.
Beef can be very low calorie. It matters if it's a low fat cut.
It also looked closer to 500 grams @@JJ11JJ05
I am a female 5'6" 154lbs and looking to lean out more. I walk at least 10k steps a day and lift/run 3-4 times a week. I eat about 1200-1500 comfortably. This is about an average day of eating for me. Somedays are obviously more nutritionally dense than others. The key to being comfortable at this calorie intake is lots of water and fiber. 😊
I went on a 1200 calorie diet for weight loss, it worked but I was MISERABLE. I was constantly lightheaded, feeling like passing out at work, sleeping all day because I had NO energy, and feeling sad because I couldn’t enjoy eating my meals. Do not starve yourself, it’s not worth it.
You went too extreme maybe, start off slow going below 200-300 Cala below your maintenance, and lessen it if you really want. The 200 can work since it’ll build up over a week, where you’ll be down by 1400 cals. It’s a lifestyle not a one day thing
Also if eating much less is good to give your body support in form of electrolytes for example
Low carb diet is the key.
More protein and fats and vegetables as you can plus low carbs no bread or nudles no fried chicken or Freud potatos (just boiled potatoes with a spoon of oil as example) and u will see the diferance without calculate the calories.
@@mohaabdo4588 Carbs aren’t the enemy

That’s a nice looking man right there!
Counting calories is painful. Just drink lots of water and eat mostly plant based foods within a small window, like 8 hours of the day.. Replace sugar with monk fruit sweetener to avoid an insulin spike, and ease up on red meat and bread consumption. The weight will come off fast!

@@cieraselly5070 nope. You are just spreading bro science. It’s called PSMF diet
The foto thumbnail is a shame!
That thumbnail though of all the options to choose from you chose that one 😭
You can eat much more volume and filling meals on 1200 kcals. Just swap foods and be creative with calorie dense foods!!
Yep, adding fattier foods will help a lot with keeping one sated for much longer while reducing cravings.
Fat in food =/= Fat on your body, that's the most clever trick the food industry has imployed to fool people into thinking that Fatty foods will make me Fat, cause people conciously and unconciously relate fat in food to fat on your belly, when in reality fat in food is the best fuel you can use, while carbs literally kill you. (Note* That is, if you're an average human being who has a huge carb heavy diet and are sedentary, I'm not talking about body builders who consume ludicrous amounts of carbs and are in the best shape they'll ever be, these two people are worlds apart.)
I have gut issues from eating a low calorie high volume diet. Also you need at least 40g of fat per day for normal brain function
The sugar ranch dressing and peas no why did he need bottled ranch dressing which is a train wreck,,, the avocados work! That’s so many added calories and why peas lol what about zucchini spirals, mashed califlower, blah blah he could have so much more healthy food in place of the sugar ranch and peas
@Pam Fay on the peas idea, I agree with him solely for it being a great source of protein. That's it though. His macros are a trainwreck, he won't lose fat, he will lose more muscle instead. People need to stop relying on the number on the scale and take weekly photos.
I implore most people;
Don’t eat this few calories. A caloric intake this low will be very hard on you, will likely lead to a loss in muscle as well as fat (muscle burns fat and makes you look leaner at healthier body fat percentages).
Go calculate your theoretical maintenance calories and try eating that for a week while tracking your calories in a note book or my fitness pal. Also, weight yourself after you wake up every day at the same time and make a note each day of the weight. Do this for two weeks. If you see that you gain weight on this many calories, you have three options.
First; you can eat less calories, and about 500 less calories a day will burn a pound of body fat per week, however this is pretty hard for most people to do, so there is nothing wrong with only cutting 250 calories out and burning half a pound. Option 2 is that you eat the same but burn 250-500 extra calories a day. I suggest doing moderate intensity steady state cardio. Get on the elliptical and crank the resistance to what you can manage and push at a good clip. Other forms of cardio are fine as well, choose whatever is fun for you.
Finally there is what I consider the best option which is to burn 250 calories and eat 250 calories less that way you get the best of both worlds and don’t have to murder yourself on a diet.
Set realistic goals and enjoy the journey without ol obsessing over the destination.
💯 even just dropping by 100cal per day for a month and then another 100cal per day the next month until you're eating enough for the weight you want to maintain. Which is NOT 1200cal. Unless you're wanting to exist solely as a slab of meat that does not move.
Weight lifting is a must. HIIT 2-4 times per week also is fine (but HIIT need to be executed in a proper way, with proper intensity, duration and break between sets)
Exactly. This type of diet isn’t sustainable. Especially for the type of people that are trying to lose lots of weight.
and yes, weight training is essential. Build muscle, raise your metabolism.
@@genzcurmudgeon8037 It is if you know what you are doing and how well you are eating ….
@@hellrep Sure. Maybe 5% or less people who try to survive on 1200 calories will be able to sustain it.
Very helpful!
You put too much processed food in there buddy
1200 calories is absurdly low. You know nothing about how the body works.
agreed, your body already burns about 2k cals per day, so you need to eat more than just 1,2k cals per day
@@Washekk2712 i would say it’s okay for someone morbidly obese🤷🏽♀️
@@medina4926 yeah it is but that’s a whole different level of dieting. If you’re not morbidly obese and you eat like this you will only cause more problems. And be miserable the whole time.
@@medina4926 nah that’s the complete opposite, it will be super harmful mentally. Imagine eating 3k + a day and then suddenly eating 2 meals at around 1.2k, food is energy so as a person you will feel physically drained after 4-5 days, you’ll get results but you need to be incredibly strong mentally. I managed to eat around 1k a day to lose all my weight, and now I feel immense regret, feel miserably and building up muscle feels so much slower than if I did a progressive deficit.
@@PandaCM idk about that, i can feel madly awake on no food and sleep all day with tons of food. Basic science doesn’t really apply to an individual because your brain controls you body, every body may be the same but no brain is the same. So what you feel isn’t what others will feel. If you felt miserable then that’s you but there’s loads of people on a healthy diet with low calories that feel fine. Like long time vegans, y’all will love to tell them that they need to eat meat but if they feel fine then they feel fine. What’s harmful to you ain’t harmful to the other person
Egg and kimchi rice bowls are life savers on a calorie deficit. They're roughly 500-600 calories and are filling. Can swap out the eggs for some other lean protein too, like chicken breast. But of course, this only if you're strictly counting calories and not the macros.
What's macros??? I'm new to this
@@meg.h. % of protein, fat and carbohydrates in food
Swap out the rice. Add chicken and vegetables.
Thanks, this looks reasonable to me

I just want to ask which kind of 200 g of beef plus 100 g of peas has 290 cal?? That's not true. That's 543 cal minimum for dinner
True
Lean cuts of beef has like 21g protein and 2,8g fat for only 110kcal, that's 220kcal for 200g. Peas are 70kcal for 100g. All together is actually 290 kcal.
Not much of a meal but the macros are correct if you use lean cuts of beef.
He must be eating the leanest possible cut of beef & not using any oil to cook. I'd add 60 kcal for a half tbsp of olive oil, bc it'll be easier, taste better, have better macros & most of us don't want to scrub a pan - especially if our diet is this low & we are barely getting sufficient kcal to sustain us 🤣
For YOUR WEIGHT it is that much for dinner but its different for others stop hating
Well a 90g chicken breast has 110cal… That beef looked very lean, so 290cal kinda makes sense. I dont think peas have too many calories tbh.
As a person losing weight rn I feel that it’s important to know that this might be right for him but that doesn’t mean everyone should. Contact a dietician and figure out a safe caloric deficit for you ❤❤❤
Might be a good idea to increase muscle to improve resting metabolic rate and add some cardio so you can get more food in while still cutting.
Why are you eating such high calorie dense foods? I can feel the ghrelin punching me in the face just watching this. I could’ve had 4 cucumbers 3 chicken breast’s 5 egg whites 3 apples 1 pound of spinach a entire bag Of popcorn and still eat less calories than this and be over full.
I was full… 🤷🏻♂️
Someone watches Greg Doucette 😂
@@tyriktie-reek2847 lol who hasn’t stubbled on to his videos but I’m pretty envious of these under eaters cuz man If I ate like him I’d be non functioning.
But you have no fat in your "diet plan". Protein and carbs only. So after few days you will be more and more hungry. Your hormones need some fats. Fat makes us full for long time. IT is not about to eat more food and less calories but to have optimal level of nutrients, protein and fat.
Because no one wants a pound of spinach?
If I could only eat 1200 cals a day I'd choose a high in volume food
Thanks coach ❤
Shouldn’t even be thanking him😂
Glad most people in the comments seem to be aware but if you are looking to lose weight, DON'T DO THIS. 1200 is way too little for a grown man
as someone recovering from severely restricting my food intake these videos aren’t helpful… maybe to some people but you know you can still eat more
Eating more means I'd have to exercise which I'm too lazy to do so I need vids like this lol
These help absolutely no one, calories shouldn’t be that low for anyone
@@sweettea1193 that’s 100% not true
@@HeathyrBlackLovesYou what's not true?
@@sweettea1193 that eating more would mean you have to exercise. At 1200 Cals that’s definitely not true, you can reverse diet until you reach your actual maintenance calories. No grown adult (yes, even a petit 4’ 11 adult) has a maintenance of 1200 calories
I’ve never (& will never) put a client on 1200 calories
When I use one of those online calculators it says I need 1700 calories a day. So if I want a 500 deficit that’s 1200.
@@juliannesteele7082that’s the same thing with my calculator. It says I need to eat 1200 to be in a deficit but all the internet says not to eat that low?? I have three meals and a snack and a half each day and am able to stay full and in my deficit. Idk who to believe anymore 😅
@@juliannesteele7082 500 cal deficit is not sustainable for a long time. 200-300 is sufficient. additionally she is a trainer, so she would want you to burn calories by exercising not just dieting. you might loose muscle if you don’t work out
@@juliannesteele7082 you don't need to be on a deficit of 500. Do 1500 cals/day and exercise. Even just walking for 30 minutes at a quick pace is fine but if you really want to be able to eat more after the weight loss and keep the weight off, start lifting some weights. I usually just pick a quiet corner in the gym, get a few dumbells and work with them after my walk. Good luck
Down 62 lbs since October doing OMAD alternate day fasting eating probably around 800-1500 calories a day depending on the day. with a few cheat days in between where i eat 2-3k calories. It's definitely sustainable. Just because a person has impulse control issues when they see a donut doesn't mean this isn't sustainable.
you got me with the rench dressing i was 😮
no one should eat only 1200 calories,period
1200 calories for a full grown man is ridiculous.
I hope this helps people looking for something to feed their toddlers. It's literally The calorie need of a three-year-ole

I try to do 1200 as a 157cm female with a desk job, ends up being 1300-1400 in the long run. I go to the gym 3 times a week and maintain 44kg. You are not a small sedentary female.
Hunny you are not small you are underweight lmao

@lolinkassi We are the exact same size. And eat/move about the same too. You or I are absolutely not underweight. 😂 I have muscle and am not a stick. Just on the small/petite side. I suspect you’re just dandy too. 🤗
@@wootz4 You’re absolutely right, but I just didn’t wanna argue with the person above. 🤷🏻♀️ The BMI scale exaggerates thinness in short people and obesity in very tall people as it is based off an average 5’9 woman’s frame. If you and I were 177cm, we would not have the exact same skeleton/frame just with longer arms and legs, our whole frames would be larger, everything would be wider, feet and hands would be larger etc. The BMI scale does not take that into account. Same is true for my very tall female friends who are 5’11-6’0. If someone were asked to rate how thin on a scale of 1 to 10 some of them are, they could say “like 8/10 thin” and if they looked at me, they’d also say “like 8/10 thin”. But I’m a UK size 4 and they’re a UK size 8-10.
Hi did you have a weight loss journey or were you always thin? I'm 158 cm female trying to lose weight
