I haven’t figured out that whole “eat when I’m hungry and stop when I’m full” business yet
Problem is you have to eat so frequently, there are times you’re just chewing and drinking water, repeat til food gone lol.
Cause it's a myth lol
Yeah, my genetic hand of cards is an obesogenic phenotype, so I am always hungry and really almost never feeling full (I've eaten 8-12 fully loaded plates of food at a buffet, it's a disorder), that took me to about 125kg body mass (185cm tall man) and then I've cut down to around 80kg several times now and I only am even more insatiable now lol
That's called Eating disorder 😅
@@thor498how do I get over it
Hi Dr. Mike from Vancouver B.C. This is my first public comment ever, but I hope you get this message. I want to send you a heart felt thank you for the information you provide me everyday. You've provided me with humour and education towards my fitness goals. In 2022 I survived brain surgery and came out of it perfectly. My body took care of me when I needed it to. Fast forward to last summer I got tagged in a picture on FB on the beach. I was 244 lbs at 6' 1" and looked awful. I actually told my buddy to take the photo down. What pissed me off is that photo represented the health problems I went through, and I failed to take responsibility. I now get up at 4:30 am every morning before work and train like my life depends on it. Some mornings when I lay there thinking it's too fucking early, I look at that photo, get pissed off, and jump out of bed. I'm now 230lbs and stronger than ever thanks to your advice. I'm 9 weeks into my weight training routine and I feel great. Your approach to overall health has made a huge difference in my life. Thank you so much Mike.
Dude this is amazing. Well done! Dr. Mike deserves plenty of kudos for the raft of free info he’s put out, but YOU are the one making this happen. Great job, man!
Thank you, this is the type of community I want to be a part of. For me it's all about overall good health. I've really come to enjoy weight lifting a lot. I finally have my diet dialed in thanks to Mike's advice. I find my diet is a hell of a lot harder than just lifting.
Thanks Will, I appreciate it.
I guess it's human to always find reasons not to do our work, workouts etc. We have it always the hardest while other people have it way easier..
Then I read comments like yours and get reminded that I don't have it all that bad and I am just lazy right now.
Thanks for motivating me and keep up the great work! I wish you the very best, I will try mine
Thank you Sebastian. I'm glad my message resonated with you, I hope you find what you're looking for.
What helps me not eat at night is to brush my teeth early so i dont get the urge to grab something to eat even if im a bit hungry
Especially oranges !
I do that too. Remember to eat your edibles before you brush!
good advice. tank you
Greek yogurt and frozen berries saved me during many cuts
Greek Yogurt and Blue berries for me(2 or 3 af a time).
Started eating more berries recently and it's been saving me. Much less cravings for sweet things now.
Going to try this
Replace the high fat Greek yogurt with Skyr and you got even more protein and less fat
My favorite super healthy meal when I’m craving something sweet at night is skyr or non fat plain greek yoghurt with a scoop of protein powder (mix it in very well) and frozen berries. The frozen berries make it basically frozen yoghurt and it has like 300 cals and 50g of protein.
I got down to 8% once. body looked great but my face looked like I was dying of cancer. seems 14% is a balance point for my genetics. best of luck on your journey because the destination is just a place to visit once in a while.
Agreed. I decided I'd rather just build more muscle so I can look great at a higher bf% 12-14% seems to be my sweet spot.
@@gearheart3721 100% I think body builders look best 4-6 weeks after the show when they've put on some fat. Look much fuller and healthier- likely in that 10-15% BF range at that point.
"I don't care if I'm losing. I'm still competing." That is a great message and really makes sense.
96/4 beef, 99/1 turkey and 99/1 chicken are all really close in calories and swapping between them helps make it not so boring. Hot sauce is your friend. Most hot sauces are no/low calorie and there's hundreds of different ones out there to try.
96 percent ground beef is a Godsend discovery for a lean bulking bro like myself.
@@JohnDoa1980 I really don't change the quantity of what i eat for meals very much. I use higher/lower fat content meats and dairy to adjust the calories. I add in some mid day snacks if i need more calories.
You got to check out G Hughes low calorie sauces
Salsa is pretty damn low in calories too and goes great on eggs.
Nothing wrong w high fat. Try gettin more in meals rather than carbs and you will eat way more without addin a pound
Dr. Mike dropping this at what'll be a week or two into the cut he recommends in his video about when to bulk and cut through a year is genius.
As it is written
He recommended (jRm_NKO2AAE) March, April, May for cutting.
With a little bit of flexibility on the dates, I am 2 weeks in. Cutting through June or so based on his adaptive "keep going while you are seeing progress and don't hate life"
@@TelamonAjaxdamn did we all just coincidentally start cutting at the start of April
Heh....I started my cut in mid-March.
It’s so much easier said than done. But, brothers, if you put your mind to it and prioritize the shred, it WILL happen. Reaping the long term rewards over short term dopamine effects is a feeling like no other. We’re all gonna make it!
Or just cheat and take drugs
And sisters.....
No, we aren't all going to make it. I guarantee I diet and train harder than most people but at 39 years old, my body *will not* , and I repeat - *will not* - lose any more body fat than its current set point. I've eaten the exact same quantity and quality of food for four years straight with no sugar or junk food. I burn close to a thousand calories per workout using a 30 kg weighted vest for 4.5 miles of fast paced rucking. It doesn't make a goddamn bit of difference. If you have the genes to get shredded, cool, good for you, but stop shilling this stupid chirpy naive optimistic survivorship bias, IT DOESN'T FUCKING WORK FOR EVERYONE.
@@alexdenton9176so you think if you starved to death you'd die with the exact same body fat you have now?
@@LukeBrownSM You think a strawman argument about malnourishment is a valid rebuttal to extolling a hard limit on a voluntary aesthetic pursuit by a normative range caloric deficit?
It is such a mind game for me - constantly questioning what i'm doing, why bother, have I tracked things close enough, am I doing it right, you look exactly the same - so why continue?
Fighting through that inner self who seems to want to keep you down.
#1 is why I started intermittent fasting and lost 15kg of mostly fat since September, and the "this is my life now" advice for #9 is how I quit smoking cold turkey a year ago. Good shit.
nice work.
@@attananightshadow Thanks bud, appreciate it.
Nice
Quit smoking is haaaaaard
my biggest problem is definitely not being patient enough. i'll be doing everything right and then just stop.
What helped me with this is figuring out what my actual goal is. Before it was drop 5, 10, 15 or even 20 kg asap. And I got impatient after two days of the scale not dropping. Now my goal is to be as strong and healthy as possible when I'm 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 or even 80 years old. 8 week mesos fly by without even focusing on my weight, but it still drops.
Perspective is everything in life. When you have 50+ pounds to lose you need to look at it in a period of a 8-12 months not weeks. Your body needs a week or two to actually start losing the weight but it requires discipline
lets say you get a revenue stream that gives you 100.000 a month after taxes....it will take you still 10 month to become a millionaire.
you dont stop it because you didnt become a millionaire straight away.
stupid analogy, but anyway.
@@notyourdamnbusiness8795that's not how psychology works
Not thinking about "when is it over?", accepting my fate is what made me quit smoking. That's some great advice.
the timing on this vid couldn’t have been better, ty!
Fantastic video! Love the Andor reference
Perfect timing Doc!
I desperately needed this right now.
Fantastic video, Doc. Thank you!
Needed this video. Thanks Doc!
Didn't want potato chips till you talked about potato chips. Thanks.
I love the motivation you are transmitting
Super helpful for me right now. Thanks, Dr. Mike!
this is probably the most motivating video i watched from this channel in months, thank you a lot, team!!!
The advice here is gold. Great video. This video is saved to my watch later list for future reference.
Love the point about radical acceptance and abandoning hope. It is indeed a hard place to get to, but once you get there, you are free! Works in this context and so many others. Thanks Dr. Mike, I needed some inspiration on my current cut. This was serendipitously timed.
Appreciate your videos and the core message you deliver. I've watched about 4 so far. The humor and pop-culture is great at sending a message, versus just reading off data like a monotone robot. Helping me stay on track and finally shake this last ~20 lbs.
Andor is GOATed, Dr. Mike is truly enlightened
Kind of went a little off with the soccer/football analogy later on though
I really glad to see guys like Mike and Johnny get so many subscribers. Everyone looking for health and fitness advice need more people like them.
Good advice, subbed.
Currently 9 days out from my 1st classic physique show and I’ve been using all your tips for guidance. Thanks for the videos, Dr. Jerusalem!
Amazing and helpful video as always
Would love to hear thoughts on ordering food and social eating!
Perfect timing!
Need part 2 for sure
The analogies were on point today 💯 Thanks Dr. Mike
@TopGravityTransformationwhats Up with you
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
This is pure gold Dr Israetel. I've watched almost all if your content and I've learnt all I know from you and I've laughed a TON.
But today you reached into my very soul.
Thank you 🙏
I’ve been watching for a long while. This is one of the best videos you all have done.
Awesome video!!!
Thank you Dr. Mike, i‘m six weeks into my diet and i‘ve never been this consistent before. You‘re videos have been so helpful 🙏🏼
I needed this today!
Get them Jenni
Great info 💪🏽
I’ve been watching Dr. Mike’s video for months and this channel has tons of great advice. Time for me to subscribe now. 👍💪🇺🇸
Excellent advice -- thank you!!
Mike cracks me up with his deadpan humor, oh yea, and I learn something about diet and fitness along the way. That's a win to me. Cheers Mike!
Needed this. Gotta get to the abandoned all hope phase. Been feeling pretty number 7 after going 7-10 good days and not seeing much change on the scale. Trust the system
First 10 seconds and I already learned everything I need to know. You're the best Mike!
I needed this 💯
Video came just in time for me to watch while doing my bulk meal prep. Good shit
This is helpful. Thanks.
Thank you for this. ❤️
god damn, got nailed on point one! currently on a cut and I was always hungry even when bulking! at least the numbers are going in the right direction!
Gonna try 1 and 5.
Thanks Doc
You are awesome. I wish I knew about this amazing channel before
Thanks Dr Mike. Always look forward to spending time watching RP videos to learn. About 1.5 months into dieting. Down about 15 lbs and just started lifting 2 weeks ago. Haven’t been in a gym in years and the weight was demoralizing. Now I’m seeing muscle gains and my physique has improved in just a short time. It’s easy to stay motivated when you see progress. Best thing I did was invest in myself and buy home gym equipment. Power rack, adjustable bench, decent barbell and some budget bumper plates. Gonna continue adding to my gym and keep pressing forward.
Thank you. I'm half way through a cut and the struggle is real.
Great advice, and I don't care what anyone else says, you're analogies are golden, and these are peak analogies right here!
Another banger. You never miss with analogies Dr Mike
Point 9 & 10 are bang on point!
I love you Dr Mike + your content + your humor
Dr.Mike thanks for this video I just got the RP diet app. This is my first week and it's been amazing 👏 so I appreciate all these tips. Iv been on the chicken and rice this week but next week is pasta and ground beef all that good stuff.
Thanks Dr. Mike💪🏾
@TopGravityTransformationlol
This is such good advice that I didn’t hear anywhere els. Yes make your diet foods less tasty or else you’ll want more. I also get hungrier after eating. Such good advice thank you
You drop this 👑
Freaking superb video
This is a great video to put dieting in perspective, sending to a couple people to help them
Thanks for this video. You have transformed my training and now the last frontier is diet.
You are always so fing helpful, thank you
Good talk
So nobody’s going to mention the Mfs hair turning up for 1 video then leaving again… Mike is superhuman.
😂😂😂
really needed this video, sometimes we quit right before we are there and we don't even know it.
I've made quite a few of these mistakes over the years. It's good to have them in a helpful video but any new viewers need to listen to the podcast. There's some absolute gold on there.
Awesome thank you 🐺🤍💪
You're the greatest Dr in the world when it comes to weight loss...Great video!!!
litrally the best video about weight loss and diet ever on YT
Your videos are hilarious! Nice 👍🏼
This video came at the perfect time
Needed this one, thanks Dr. Mike. One corollary of #1 and #9 that's worked for me repeatedly - if I get really hungry, I "listen to my body" but still restrict the types of foods I can consume to satisfy the hunger. I don't worry as much about the extra calories, but instead stick to the foods that will keep me satisfied, like protein and veggies. This helps steer me back in track.
6-8 are definitely my achilles heel.
Same here. But I started taking my blood sugars in the AM fasted. When I ate any carbs before bed, I woke up 115 or higher. If I eat some chicken breast and some almonds, my blood sugar never goes over 85.
7 to 10 at night for me, I always save my last meal for about 8:30pm , even 9 if I can then I'm good...well good enough I don't need to harness 100% will power only 30 to 40%
@@quentonnankivell956 Same, I time my last meal for 8-9 and if I’m craving bad, I force myself upstairs into bed. Same deal, only need 30% willpower at that point lol.
Wise info! Lovin' it.
Even better advice for the average lifter versus the cutter in comp. The cutter should already have this type of discipline.
The spice advice also can be enhanced by simply utubin or researching cool ways to cook classic meals.
I absolutely love Mike’s non-scientific analogies! Yeah they just repeat what he already explained correctly but they are just so entertaining!!
Perfect transition for the diet app ad haha
Learning to enjoy the feeling of an empty tummy and associat that with good feeling helps alot
FUUUUCK I really needed this tonight I've been killing it losing about 4 lbs a week but suddenly this week I went up 3 and was just so fkn done I've been pissed all day debating just pigging out but I'm listening to this on the stairmaster and just did an extra 10 min because #6 was exactly it so THANK YOU SO MUCH seriously you have no clue what a pissed off day it's been!!
Not dieting right now but I know how it is. This vid is gold. Will come back to it when I’m cutting next time.
I've been cutting for 2 weeks now and it's been hard cus I generally have like 0 self control. This is exactly what I needed, Mike. Thanks.
The cut gets easier everytime you do it again, stick to it brother 💪
I just started this video but the game changer for me has been doing maintenance phases. Ive been doing 6weeks dieting 4 weeks maintenance and just as soon as it starts getting “too hard” its maintenance time and I recoup. 4 weeks later im ready to go again. I’m down from 182 to 160 in the last 5 months. Nearly at my goal.
This is the way. The biggest issue I STILL see in pop culture is dieting until you hit your goal. If you’re already lean, go for it. But if you have a little while to go you must diet in cycles, your body and mind can’t handle extended dieting. I’d argue that your body starts to get used to your lower calories and arrives at homeostasis. Refeeding (during a diet) and reverse dieting isn’t really a thing (so says the research), but cycling between dieting and maintaining DOES work. And eventual bulking when it’s time to put on mass (most likely followed by a cut).
This isn’t new to RP veterans, but seems to not be common knowledge to the greater public.
years of fasting got me very in tune with the difference between hunger and cravings and that makes dieting not all that complicated for me these days
I have a harder time with the mass accumulation phase and have to resort to junk food, but I remember Dr. Mike says it is okay as I am slamming full bags of chips and family pack Sour Patch Kids on weeknights. Thanks Dr. Mike!
Does RP have a merch shop for clothes 'n stuff? would love a t-shirt or something from them. Love the content! 🔥
I love you Mike.
Being on a the tail end of a cutting phase is a real character builder. I've learned to not be picky about food when I was getting the last %s off. I remember saving the brown rice for last in my meals since those carbs tasted so amazing.
Yeah shit gets tough, especially when the weightloss slows right down
18 days in on this 6 week TIA cut to prepare for Memorial Day Pool Weekend and your video could not have come at a better time as I've been feeling stuck in a rut. #2, #9, and especially #10 hit home. Thank you and I'm even more motivated to Stay the Course.
Spot on!!!!!
17:00 is a minute of absolute gold
Hey Dr. Mike, first off, holy shit I really enjoy your channel. The informational insights are spectacular and the comedic antidotes are sophomoric and top notch. I love it! I have a question. I’m 45 and have been a lazy bastard until now and have been getting it to becoming more fit. What is a good way to prioritize my diet and hypertrophic exercise if my schedule works on a swing? I.e. I work nights W-Sat and sleep a normal schedule from Sunday-tue. Thank you
First tab in timeline “junk at night” I feel attacked 😌🤣 Well done dropping that knowledge and educating Fouad as well!💯
We have to control our thoughts. It all starts in your mind. Discipline. Great video. I play these games with myself and must resist.
This comforts me like a warm blanket. I don't quite have these issues yet, but at week 10 right now, the brain "F*$K it" signal Mike's talking about is starting to bleep a lot, so this is very real. This video is like putting a swiss army knife of strategy in my back pocket for when that signal gets close to blaring through the logic barrier.
Catching this video after I completed my 8 week fat loss through the RP diet app. The push through that Dr. Mike described is 💯% accurate. I got mad and was ready to quit, but I looked at my errors and fixed them. From there the shedding began! During travel, the food scale was helpful.
Dr.Mike nearly turned in to uncle Eddie Abbew at 7:20 🤣🤣
I bought the Mrs Dash pack off Amazon. Like 15 different O sodium spice blend flavors. Helps me stay on my diet without getting bored and crushing tons of salt. Highly recommend.
She’s been around since at least 60s. Good stuff
I needed this. 3 weeks left on my diet, I had to deload this week as I'm too diet fatigued. Will get back to it full power on Monday and knock it out.
Been binging on almonds this whole week 😢. But I've not gone over my calories except for 1 day, so still fighting hard
