    I've lost 35lb so far this year and fucking hell, this video made me feel good about it!

  • @KevinGeneFeldman
    @KevinGeneFeldman 8 лет назад +27

    Yeah but I think the difference is that fat never comes off in one condensed area. It would be like if you melted that pound of fat and then spread it over your body like butter on toast. Thats why you feel like you don't look any different with 1lb fat loss.

      @garrettsmith6014 8 лет назад +4

      +FuzzleLand Yup, but it shouldn't discourage people. Regardless of what you look like after the fat loss, a small amount can have a significant positive effect of your health.

      You just don't know how to go about losing weight my friend. You need to learn to start to fast slowly and you will slowly lose the weight. I LOST 25 lbs in 9 months, and look and feel great.

    Fat isn't toxic. It's a source of energy. It's only bad if you have it in excess.

    Damn I lost 20 pounds in 2 months and I was happy, seeing this made me happier! Then started exercising again in January and so far lost 5 pounds which disappointed me but then seeing this got me kinda glad.I only got like 10-15 pounds left to lose

  • @kellystuart168
    @kellystuart168 9 лет назад +3

    Awesome! I've lost 60lbs over the past 2 years, and now I'm struggling with 5 that I've gained back. Keep thinking its not that big a deal... but wow... it IS a big deal. Time to shed that last 5 again. I know I'll feel better when I do!

  • @solideogloria5593
    @solideogloria5593 10 лет назад +21

    My god, people. He's talking about excess fat being disgusting and toxic. Which it IS. Two minutes of research could convince a moderately reasonable person of that. He's not trying to tell you to rid yourself of ALL your fat. Let's be rational here. It's supposed to be a motivational video, but if you'd like to make up excuses as to why he's wrong, then you're only setting yourself back. This is simple information that shouldn't even be debatable.

  • @gracegirl140
    @gracegirl140 10 лет назад +1

    @debbykellis1122 8 лет назад +3

    I like the informational part of this video. It helps put the 1 pound or the 5 pound weight loss into perspective. However, although I think it's meant to be motivational, it feels like it's fat shaming. Calling fat a toxic substance and just the sheer number of times the word "disgusting" is used just feels, well, disgusting. I had to stop watching before I even got to the end. I weigh 200% of what those lovely weight charts say I should. There are several medical reasons that have brought me here. I have never experienced the shame and disgust for myself because of it because there was nothing to do about it at the time. I've been really sick lately and lost 50 pounds and was out to see what that would really look like when I came across this video. The way things are said can have a deep impact, I'm going to delete this from my internet history go and do something else and be really busy for a while and hope that I can forget this video.

    @Bodybuilder1503 I worked out a lot when I was in my teens, but then stopped and gained weight. I reached 400-405 pounds, I can still jog, walk, jump, swim, run, etc, but of course not as effeciently. Regardless, my blood pressure hit 199/109.. I decided to change. I've lost 24.6 pounds so far.. you can -sort of- see it, but the bigger you are, the less it'll show. As I lose more, the effects of losing 5-10-20 will be much much bigger.

  • @jayuk686

    Great info.Looking at just the one pound strip makes it feel more of an accomplishment, than something to get disheartened about.

  • @Russell101
    @Russell101 11 лет назад

    It can sometimes be hard to notice the difference at first because when you burn fat, it doesn't all come off from one area. Fat can be stored around your internal organs as well as under your skin. For example, doing hundreds of ab crunches won't burn fat from just around the waist, it comes from all areas of your body. But if the scales say you've lost 14lb you're obviously doing something right! Good work!

  • @Rarests

    Fat isn't necessarily toxic. Too much is definitely not good for you or aesthetically pleasing, but too much water or anything is also not good for you. That doesnt make water toxic though..

    Ok! This really frustrates me! Apparently I'm ~180lbs overweight. If this is what fat looks like then it's just not possible that I have 180 lbs of fat on me. So now I'm pissed. I don't know what to think anymore. From how this looks, I have maybe ~30 on my abdomin, ~30 all over my legs, and ~15 on my arms, so ~ 75 altogether.

    Sure fat might seem disgusting if you are overweight but fat is not disgusting. It it necessary in our bodies and we should be grateful for this amazing way to store energy in an efficient way. Please don't state that fat is a toxin. That is absolutely wrong.

    Unfortunately, there is such thing as water weight.. an average woman may flucuate up to 5 pounds of water weight through too much sodium consumption and not enough water intake.

  • @mariusvanc
    @mariusvanc 9 лет назад

    It is crazy how huge 1lb of fat is. Also consider that 1lb of fat represents about 3500 calories of stored energy. That is not a lot. It's about one can of Coke a day for a month. It's 23 oz of Cool Ranch Doritos (check how much is in the bag). It's about 12-16 donuts. 15 plain english muffins. 1 slice of bread a day for a month. 30 tablespoons of olive oil.
    To lose 1 lb of fat a week, you only need a daily combination of 500 calories of eating less/exercising more (assuming you're at steady weight and not gaining). That's really not a lot.

    I lost 4 of those 5lbers since Aug 1st! Whoohoo me. I've been losing about 1- 1.5lbs a week but they come off in "Chunks". I stay at a weight for a week or two then lose like 3 the next week. Dont know why. I've been thinking I've actually lost more fat cause I've been lifting weights and have gotten alot stronger since I started. I know muscle are more dense than fat. I started at 240 Aug 1st and now weigh 220. My goal is 205 by Jan 1st 2012. This helps visualize the loses.

    Not sure how helpful it is to repeatedly call the fat "disgusting". It is what fat is. I think the visuals are helpful as they quantify the fat. The subjective value judgments can only be harmful - that fat is in our bodies - and seem to be counter to the objective nature of the demonstration.

    I don't eat a lot when I'm at work. But I guess an energy drink and coffee is like 3 lbs bc I get on the scale right after. Get discouraged bc my weight has been stuck at the same amount for like 2 weeks now 🤔🤷. Get discouraged and say f it. Then eat a veggie burger w/ wheat bread & BBQ sauce. Sometimes a banana. Or eat it in the morning (too...). My weight hasn't budged at all. Be I'm doing something wrong. Maybe it's my irregular sleeping pattern. Or not

    @sacr3 I highly highly highly highly doubt you lost 20 pounds of FAT if you're saying it doesn't show, unless you weigh in excess of 500+ pounds, then yes that's understandable. For each pound of fat lost you lose a percentage of muscle and water as well, and the exact amount depends on your dietary choices.

      yes it is when you're overweight like that people tend to eat foods that are really high in sodium which causes the body to retain water. The body will also retain water if you're not drinking enough. (by enough I mean over a gallon and a half a day)

  • @MrApplewine
    @MrApplewine 8 лет назад

    With water fasting you should be able to lose half a pound of fat a day. It takes about 3 days to get into the fast though, so you can't count that. A few weeks fasting should work. I suggest you study up on it though. Supplementing with the 7 electrolytes without any non-mineral chelators would be adviced to prevent refeading syndrome. Also, when you eat your first meal your body is very sensitive, especially to carbohyrates, which can be very dangerous called "refreading syndrome" which has killed some people. The wisest thing to do then would be to not eat a carbohydrate meal first. Eat a ketogenic meal first. So, eat pork belly, which is 90% fat, which is what you were eating off of body fat while you were fasting pretty much. So that should be an easy transition. You can lookup how to make magnesium carbonate water using milk of magnesia and carbonated water.

    • @MrApplewine
      @MrApplewine 8 лет назад

      ***** I did it and fasted 7 days. Very low energy and had to stop. I recommend if you do it only do 7 days and do it multiple times with long breaks in between or use another method. Unless of course the person has diabetes or is obese or very fat, then going longer can be considered.

      @MrApplewine 8 лет назад

      Zachary Montoya No, I don't think so. Dr. Jason Fung's blog talks about fasting and muscle loss. As long as it is a complete fast little muscle mass will be lost. Only constant calorie restricted feeding would cause a loss.
