I Tried His 100lbs Weight Loss Daily Routine

“It’s a very small trade off for not being depressed anymore.”
I felt that
+1
+ 2
+3
Yeah, +4
Me too❤❤❤❤❤
Never seen anyone drink 12L of water a day outside of warehouse employees before their second interview.
“Can I have a job? Only if you drink 12l water”
Haha! Gotta pass that drug screen 😂
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Deep cut lmao.
The not tracking calories thing is 100% true. The longest I’ve stuck to a cut and lost the most weight I didn’t track shit. I just ate real foods, no bs, low carbs. Everytime I track calories it leads to stress, restriction, and ultimately a huge binge.
Respect!!!! I am in ageement!
100 percent !!!!!!
I find tracking helpful for understanding my body and how it responds to different things, like where I am in my monthly cycle, eating my emotions, etc.
But my focus is what types of foods I'm eating, when I'm eating them, and how much, not calories.
@@elsh332 tracking calories for a week or 2 to understand what a normal good day of eating should look like, also getting accustomed to which foods you can have with which in a day to satisfy cravings while not going overboard is beneficial. But the constant stress over every little calorie is no bueno. Even when you track calories it’s still an estimate, so worrying about it is useless. Eat intuitively and listen to your body and mind most importantly, but set aside small goals for your health such as no processed sugar 4/7 days of the week or 2/7 low carb days of the week. Balance is key. Burn a few hundred calories a day through exercise and I guarantee you will not gain any weight unless you have a binge eating disorder.
I say tracking is good for people who don’t really have a good grasp on nutrition yet and are weening themselves off junk, but once you know what you should be eating it’s not super vital unless you have a very specific goal
I love he's counting to 5 before getting out of bed but he clearly already set up his phone on a tripod prior.
😂😂
maybe night before?
He mentioned he is getting more thirsty the more he drinks. He's flushing out all his minerals and electrolytes. He should definitely change that as that can get pretty dangerous with this intensity of working out
I'm glad someone else caught that.
yeah this is really bad advice. I remember some guy died during a marathon because paramedics fed him only water with no electrolytes essentially bursting his cells.
Honestly his drive and will power to succeed is incredible but truthfully he’s over doing he should have simply hired a coach and nutritionist be patient and don’t rush the process cause I’m scared he get injured and loose motivation go back to old ways or just push himself too much to a mental breaking point ,like yes you can have McDonald in moderation ounce or twice a month it’s not like an alcoholic or drug like ok stop consuming and never go back
Internet health coach here..
He addresses this 4.5 minutes into the video. Guessing you didn’t watch the whole thing lol
Thank you so much for having me on the channel my dude!!!
Hopefully, this can help some people make the change to save their lives!
Every Sub is SOO appreciated
No replies? Imma change that
super impressed man keep up the amazing work
Ur inspiring bro
Incredible work my guy!
I dont think it is good for your kidnys to pie 20 times a day. Good for him to lose weight, but mby cut back on water.
this guys personality is dope, seems like such a nice dude. Super happy for him with all his progress. Taking a year off to focus only on his health shows how dedicated he is to getting into shape and being the healthiest version of himself. I pray when he does return to working that he is able to balance everything, meal prep the whole week on the weekend and find that perfect fitness + work balance
Simon and I went to the same college, he is hands down one of the most dope people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.
This guy just replaced one addiction with another.
Better the gym than being obese and eating crap.
@anthonysilva3456 this is not sustainable. When he stops, he will gain all that weight back.
@@Rinablack3512not really 😂 when he stops he will gain 90 pounds back?? How is working out to lose weight not sustainable.
Working out helps little in order to lose weight, it's a common myth, look it up. Changing your eating habits in the only thing which truly works and it's primarily that change which made him lose weight.
@@grimdeathkid David goggins?? He quit his job and lost all of that weight and sustained it how would he not be able to sustain it?
I admire Simons dedication and commend him for his results, but I think a disclaimer is necessary. You do NOT need to drink that much water a day in order to lose weight. Most individuals don’t even get the recommended amount of 2.7 liters for active women and 3.5 l for active men so upping your intake by even a little bit will probably help most people. You can die of hyponatremia due to high intakes of water. There is also such a thing as overtraining and it can have very real and negative impacts on your body physiologically, and hormonally. Most people can benefit from upping their daily activity by even 45 min-60 min once a day, 5 times a week and still see results. You do NOT need to workout like Simon to get results. He just wanted to purge bad habits in a short amount of time which can also lead to relapse since its not sustainable.
He crearly is on roids thats why he trains like that pretty obv
Some people can take it, like goggins lol
@@av-blxckheart9071 I think even goggins is kind of fighting his own demons and doesn’t realize that chilling tf out would probably do him some good.
For water it just depends if you sweat and move enough and also weight and height goes into how much you can drink
And he’s taking the supplements for the minerals he’s peeing out so it works for him, this definitely not sustainable for the normal people working 9-5s
1. Loved his personality.
2. Loved how you both fed off each other’s personalities.
3. “Small price to pay to not being depressed again”
4. “Being morbidly obese has a factor of laziness in it, and I figured if I didn’t make things complicated, I’d have a higher chance of success”
5. How does he manage to support himself for a year not working and dedicating himself to fitness and fitness only? (asking for a friend 😅)
6. Anyone noticed he was counting in French during leg extensions?
Awesome video. Loved it
I noticed the French too! Great comment
I'm glad I'm not the only one that heard him counting in French! 😂
Then it’s probably that juicy French government money
He's probably of Moroccan descent or somewhere around there, so he's first and second languages should be french and Moroccan/some other variants of Arabic. So of course when he was suffering he counted in french and swore in Arabic hah
@@BillCypher95or Canadian...?
Most humbling video I seen you do in a long time. I love this.
Why are there so many haters in the comments. He’s attacking obesity.
Nah fr they're all like 5'7 180lb guys who probably dropped 20 lbs and think what the did is what this guy, 6'1 350 lbs guy should do tryna drop 100 lbs
17:17 them cookies look gas
@@Aldo03_I’m 6”2 and i was 283 pounds. I lost 100 pounds, this guy is going to kill himself
I just hope this guy finds a sustainable way to continue to not get depressed after he falls into his baseline and isn’t chasing something unobtainable for the rest of his life. I wish him a life thats well rounded and has a variety of foods too- this will build a great foundation and I wish him a lifestyle after where he loves himself and even tries therapy if he still has self hate after
I wholeheartedly agree, as someone who has also lost 100lbs ... it took me 15 years of yo yo dieting .. extremes..and binge eating... to finally realize i needed therapy. Now I* can finally lead a balanced life and maintain my weightloss in peace
Dont know you, but love you homie.
i know that i didnt reach the finish line, but rather the starting line to fix my life. people like you and comments like this help make it a little easier ngl.
@@SimonGoliathLafontant comes from experience being overweight most my life and doing extreme exercising/dieting which got me from a 6ft 265lbs obese 38 waist to 143lb 30 waist and 10%body fat. The moment I tried to live a normal life and went to my baseline 180lb 34 inch waist I wasn’t happy again even though my physique was still amazing then I had cancer during Covid and was back wearing 38 waist pants. I kept my 30 waist pants chasing that physique. I’ve beaten cancer just over a year ago and threw out the 30 waist pants and am back wearing 34 waisted pants and at a good 200lbs. On meds everyday to regulate my thyroid and hormones and live a well balanced life and exercise. It’s a constant journey still with life’s ups and downs but I have my health and I’m getting lean and big with a better mindset and balance. I’m with you on this journey brother!
@@bbjudyfit You are weak, maybe he ain't
Aint no way this dude is definitely on trt for sure I know ple ty of people who were his weight and height and dey aren't dis ripped 😅
I knew Simon about 10 years ago. So trippy to spot him in one of Will’s videos. Hats off to you Simon for turning things around. Good to see you training.
Holy shit!! Fancy seeing you here ❤❤
@@SimonGoliathLafontantthanks for the motivation bro struggling right now with weight
@@troyoliver2760 hope you started since you wrote this!!!!
This is not sustainable for the average person. This looks like a full-time job. How the hell can he afford that house, gym membership, supplements, etc. with zero income? Must be rich already.
right!! He said he took a year of from work and this is his "Full time job", must be nice
his dedication is truly inspiring. It's incredible to see the impact of consistency and hard work on such a challenging journey.
Will on a treadmill at 7am is the closest Ive ever seen him to cranky.😊
So much of this is so unhealthy its really shocking to see.
1- over consumption of water
2- no time for social life or a job
3- overtraining that could lead to injury
Plus more.
I understand the benefits and where he has come from, its very impressive that he has changed some really bad habits, but this is so extreme and he could end up back where he was as this is so restrictive and the overtraining could lead to injury, plus these new changes could have a negative effect on him and his health.
And steroids
Def on gear so overtraining is less of a risk. Don’t have a problem with that just wish it would be disclosed
I feel like he is over consuming water to "try" to reduce the amount of loose skin after losing that much weight. I've been losing weight for a while and whenever i looked up loose skin almost every article says "drink lots of water and use moisturizers to hydrate skin"
He can just shed the weight by upping his protein to gr per lbs of bodyweight,working out max 1 hour a day and eating 1500cals or less a day with fasting and OMAD diet. Instead he does everything to the extreme which is not sustainable and he would have to find a more reasonable lifestyle anyways.
2 of them are cardio so not that injury prone. I do agree with water intake over consumption but working out that much could lead to a-lot of systematic fatigue
This man trains like a true athlete, he should keep this up and see where it takes him. If this is a 5 month transformation this dedication is insane! Really inspiring, guys. Great work.
he trains the complete opposite of a true athlete, doesnt take care of his rest -> worksout way too many times way too intensly, eats dogshit (no minerals and vitamins from vegetables) while 'abusing' multivitamins which do really the opposite of what he thinks, and drinking 11 liters of water just worsens everything
@@casperkoivisto487 He's on TRT my friend. You can tell by the androgen sensitive muscle groups and how jacked they are compared to the rest of the body + that transformation is not possible in 5 months, he's an asshole willing to lie to make himself feel better and look better on social media than actually help people that are in his situation. But, aren't most influencers like that? I just ignored the rest the of the video. Will is a great creator, but this video wasn't it.
@@GeorgeLifterManntrt? Probably on a much higher dose than that.
@@GeorgeLifterMann He has a video on his channel explaining that he did steroids at 17 which shrunk his balls and led him to be depressed, and is the reason he became morbidly obese. He's on TRT now because his body doesn't produce natural testosterone anymore. He's not an asshole OR lying.
@@Honkden hard to know what is true nowadays, he is suspicious as trt levels would not cause the amount of difference in fat loss alone, maybe he takes more, etc. I know because i'm on TRT, hell there are tons of people on TRT that go to the gym consistently and don't see results like that. and tbh anyone can get TRT, your test labs will be drawn and may be normal (aka in reference range), but if you complain of symptoms of depression, low sex drive/erection quality, low energy, etc, they will still give you a TRT prescription none the less. i dont buy his story of why he is on trt that he took it while young and now he doesn't produce natural testosterone anymore. it takes a long time on high-dose testosterone to cause your testes to stop producing testosterone anymore, for example in the HAARLEM study they looked at time it takes for test to return to normal after athletes took a test cycle (had to cycle for at least 6 weeks to atleast be in the study, but study participants had a median cycle duration of 3.5 months (up to 11 months for a cycle - frekin crazy, anyways)) and average time to return to normal test was 3 months. either this dude went ape and took incredibly high doses of steroids (and for a long time at that), which i doubt, or he just came up with this rediculous excuse to have an excuse to the public for being on gear. no matter how you look at it, story is insanely unbelievable - getting his results on trt? no way
sure its awesome that he lost the weight but the truly inspiring thing would be to do this WHILE STILL WORKING AND HAVING A LIFE!!! this really doesnt give hope to the 9-5 people that need to change
Most people take this step while keeping a job so there are plenty of others to look up to. For some reason he was able to quit working for a year and I cant hate him for it. Id do the same if I could. Your version of "Having a life" and his are obviously different.
DO NOT DRINK 12 LITERS of WATER everyDAY ....dude!!!! NONONONONO
^^^^^^^
Drinking this much water is genuinely extremely fucking dangerous. Like you can die from water intoxication. Also it flushed out a bunch of necessary minerals. Also its not needed whatsoever, youll literally be fine drinking 2-3 litres per day, maybe a little extra if you sweat a LOT.
right? that's extremely dangerous. don't drink 12L of anything in a day. obviously. just because it's water doesn't mean it can't hurt you. hyponatremia is super dangerous, even fatal
seems to work for lad
@@2DaysYouth eating disorders "work" too, that doesn't mean they're healthy. Also his weight loss is not a result of him overdosing on water, it's cause he eats less and exercises a lot. He would've lost the same amount of weight if he drank a Normal amount.
I dont take advice from anon accounts nerd. @@mh56487
Really glad Will asked the question at the end about eventually finding balance cause truthfully, it’s going to be VERY hard for him to keep this weight off, because the current lifestyle isn’t sustainable
you can do 90% of this and still work, run in the morning to work or a gym near work for cardio, gym before work, gym after work, infra red sauna's after work, hard to eat the way he does but im sure he can find a way, just need to be the right amount of Manic and you can figure it out.
@@JAMESREFELD91 It's a lot easier to do all of this when you have no added responsibilities of work. The mental strain of working and doing all of this is completely different.
It's good that you mentioned being 'Manic', because mania is usually followed by depression
He’s juicing, isn’t it obvious? He’ll probably just up the dosage.
@@NicolasGarrattDavid goggins lost all his weight and sustained it don’t see the difference
I lost 110 pounds in a very short time and have kept it off for 3 years now, but I have not been able to find a healthy balance due to fear of regaining the weight. It will be tough for him I’d imagine.
this was so beautiful to see, and very moving to see your facial expressions when telling about the past. very impressive journey 💌 much love to you and all the best !!! wonderful video !!!
I love how happy this man is, inspiring! Thanks for the video. Also, nice calves brotha!
The part that broke me just a little was the "I don't track calories because I didn't want to do too much" and then... I work out multiple times a day, eat every 2 hours (on an alarm) and the list goes on and on, I'm never the person to harsh anyone's mellow but I don't see how this is a sustainable lifestyle long term... honestly, the fact that he's sustained it as long as he has is insane... I'm assuming this is his job... because there's just no time for anything else. I've lost 120lbs *albeit over a much longer timeframe* but I feel that I've been able to use that time to build healthy habits that I can actually sustain over the rest of my life. I wish the absolute best for him and hope he finds a way to maintain that doesn't consume his life. ❤💜
He mentioned he stopped working for a year to focus solely on this so, yeah... you're right, no time for anything else!
@@inessantos3077 oops... I completely forgot to edit the comment after I saw that part. 😅🤦♀️
I don't think he is planning on doing this forever, just to get the 100 pounds off. he said he has a chronic condition that is only going to get worse over time which is probably the motivation to get this weight off as soon as possible.
@mzabs1871 right... the problem is... when the year is up and he has to go back to work... and all the new "habits" he's built are no longer possible... how is he possibly going to maintain that weight loss? Any fat person will tell you... losing weight is the "easy part"... maintaining it long term is the hard part... and without learned healthy habits, it's all but impossible... it's the reason that statistically over 80% of weight loss ends in regain. Because everyone is only interested in how fast they can lose weight... they aren't thinking about the long term.
It was only when I stopped thinking about how fast I could lose it and started thinking about how I could maintain it that I was able to lose over 120 lbs... (and still losing).
He could defy all of the statistics (and I truly hope he does). I just hope that others who are watching don't leave this video thinking that this is the best way to go about losing 100 lbs. 🤷♀️
You dont need to eat every 2 hours that's not normal, that's a stupid myth. Fasting would benefit you greatly. And focus on mostly protein so you feel full. You don't need to work out multiple times a day, that means you are not going hard enough. 3 times a week at high intensity would be enough for you starting out with 2 meals a day. You got your information all wrong and this why your results are bad.
The 15 multivitamin part and drinking 12L of water a day is questionable to me if it's healthy.. and he could incorporate more vegetables in his diet.
Other than that, bro is doing really well!
He looks so much better!
It isn’t healthy.
It’s like eating 12 eggs everyday.
There’s more variety in a healthy diet.
Not just macros and calories.
The 15 vitamins a day is a him thing, and people should be drinking more then y’all think 😂
Yeah multivitamins are completely unnecessary for most people if you have a balanced diet with fruits and veggies.
The multivitamins he said it was because of Crohns disease... They can't absorb nutrients like we can so it's probably not as bad for him
@@ziminarblaze9670
Most people should drink around 2-3 liters depending on your athleticism and temperature.
In Sweden we move a lot but it’s cold.
3l water is enough for me.
I can’t imagine how it is for Dubai or Las Vegas
I recently just went from 265 to 165 in five months. Loved seeing this
God bless you! How did you do it?
good lord the mental strength this kind of switch took is insane. And the mentality to stick with it every single day. Mate, you're an inspiration
Would love an update later to see how bro adjusts to living like a normal human again after his year off. His dedication is admirable but all this seems wildly unsustainable unless he just becomes an influencer full time.
Maybe he plans on using this to make a living...
considering he has been able to keep it up for a year it probably is sustainable for him.
@@jetrouski76 Pretty sure he said it hasnt even been 6 months yet...so less than 1/2 a year....and he said he's taking off a year from normal life. No job, no socializing , no anything. He'll eventually need to return back to a normal life with like...a job and all.
I went through a similar journey, 1 year rehabilitation learning to walk again, which was a few steps, long rest, repeat for 8-12h a day with adjusted exercises. Once I learned to walk again and savings were good enough, I took another year off and pushed myself in my workouts. morning/evening workouts, lots of steady state cardio, learning a new language and getting an education for a different sector. Of this routine only lifting 1h in the morning remained. Once I rejoined the work-force I dropped my cardio down to commuting by foot or bike, 10k steps a day on average. Dropped 2 of my meals to compensate, which I didn't miss since I had the routine of work and planned breaks. The routine changed but what needed to stick, stuck. It's discipline even when the plan changes.
It was the best choice of my life, coming from bedbound my muscles were athropied so I looked anorexic once I dropped the excess weight, gained 20kg to look normal and still be a size S-M whilst being 5'10. I hope it's the same for this guy.
@@jetrouski76 once he starts to live a normal life all that time spent in the gym will be mostly gone, hes going to have a hard time maintaining and healthy lifestyle when the main contributor to his weightloss is from working out and cardio
I hope this is sustainable for him. I was like him in the past where I was obessed in losing weight back in college, where it was easier to control food intake and the gym was accesible. As my environment changes it takes more willpower to sustain the routine, especially where I am mentally and physically tired from work.
Desk jobs kill you slowly. Especially when the sedentary nature of it is pores with disgusting “comfort” food that people bring in cake and doughnuts.
He knows it isn't. He even said when they were in the McDonalds that he's going to re-evaluate what he's going to do after he loses the full 100lbs.
Good insight. I belive taking a day or two days off is nesscary not to be burn out in the long run. I lost 90lb and still going strong. I take a day off everyother 4 days.
I would really like to know, these people who diet and train all day, how do they pay the bills? because this type of routine is difficult for those who have a 9-5 job
Will... thanks for making me cry my dude. I wish I could take a year like him to get right... to do me right, full time. But man, watching his old order at MCD's was rough... because it was me in a mirror. I hate myself and have for years and I keep trying to change and fail by falling short, getting off the good wagon and back on the bad. Y'all have my admiration... before I saw this video I spoke to a trainer at VASA fitness named Cameron today and I'm going in for a consult to share my notes on my own workouts I've created and why. On my approach, knowledge, and more. He's right, complicated it too much and you're more likely to fail. I wish him and you the best... I am trying to get there too. It's so hard.
you got this bro
12L a day? Water poisoning is a thing
I used to drink 7-9L a day at one point at 67kg, so for a person so big 12L should be nothing.
@@badass6300 The kidneys of a healthy adult can flush out 20 to 28 L of water each day, but they can only get rid of about 1 L each hour. 10-15L a day is already a risk.
@@badass6300what the fuck are you on about, anything over 3.5L for me stsrts hurting my dick lol
@@Dexxter_slav well if you don't drink it at once it won't be a problem.
even if it's not at that level it's completely unecessary. and the guy cramps in his workout which means he may be flushing his electrolytes with that much. "don't you find you get thirstier the more you drink?"
Good for him, but PSA to anyone trying to lose weight- You don’t have to be doing this obsessive of a lifestyle change. It’s as simple as a calorie deficit, that’s all you need.
For him he needs this! Extremes to counter extremes
Nah I mean he's says he was obese and lazy, who knows how long he was obese for, gotta counter those old habits of being comfortable at 300+ lbs
I think the issue at hand is the AMOUNT of weight he was attempting to lose. He needed to do more to reach the goal he set for himself.
@@Aldo03_ he said like 30 years, so i assume most of his life.
Sometimes drastic change like this is necessary for some people.
And he stopped working... My question is, what kind of job did he have that he could afford to stop working for a year? He lives in a really nice place, maintains a gym membership, has enough money to keep up with his supplements.... so I am very curious how he is financially able to do it.
I just recently discovered your videos and I didn’t realize how motivating they were until tonight. I was about to binge when I put this video on and the urge went away completely and I started to workout instead 🙌🏻
This is a good way to avoid a binge
I really appreciate how Simon is so truthful
12L ??? … I mean that can be dangerous.
Yeah absolutely insane and not healthy, esp will just jumping into that, he probably destroyed his electrolyte balance.
15 multivitamins too 😮
That too for a year
It's indeed absolutely stupid.
it probably is for a normal weight person, but his body needs to cool down with the amount of exercise he does and with that high percentage of fat. I'm guessing that if he didn't drink that much water he could have worse heart problems trying to pump so much blood at really high temperature.
He doesn't want to complicate things, but his entire day is literally complicated.
its not that complicated, its simply routine based. work out 3x a day, eat the same thing 7x. like how much simpler could it get
@@TheSwoodford LOL, no.
he eats the exact same thing every day, at the exact same time, working out every single day. it's a lot, but it's not complicated.
him saying he needed to be reminded to eat was so refreshing to hear because i am obese but i dont really eat. So knowing someone is doing it and they also need reminders really makes me feel seen!
Love that you did this, great job! Most people don't have a schedule where they can workout and eat legit all day. There's an extra small percentage of lucky people that can keep that routine.
As a medical doctor, this video raises numerous concerns:
1. You eat so much that your gut cannot handle all of that food. This may be a large aspect of what is causing your Crohn’s disease - a damaged gut will likely promote autoimmune disease.
2. You exercise so much that you place a tremendous amount of stress on your body.
3. The combination of the two does not seem in the lease bit safe. You’re losing weight, but I believe you’re damaging your body in numerous ways that you do not realize.
4. This lifestyle does not teach any sense of self-control. I doubt you will be able to remain at the weight you want to be once you’ve lost all your weight, because then you have to maintain - and do you want the rest of your life back? Your full time job is fitness. This is not healthy.
5. No greens except dry scoop? Really? You’re not teaching yourself how to eat properly. There is absolutely no self control here.
6. 12 L of water also seems concerning. Your kidneys are probably not happy with you. I doubt you’re damaging them, but the loss of magnesium is concerning given all its important functions. You’re probably still deficient, even if your lab work says your levels are normal. Most Americans’ total body stores of magnesium are low.
I cannot support this. This video is massively concerning.
If you are a doctor , the. I am Joe Biden!
I am not a doctor, but the 12 L of water a day immediately raised concerns to me. That's 3 gallons of water, and unless you're literally hiking through the desert all day, you do not need that much.
He may be risking rhabdo if he isn't careful.
I guess Johnny Sins just arrived to give some tips and tricks.
@@ShamrockShakee , 264 lbs + working out heavily.... He would need 2 gallons of water baseline. Not mentioning he does 30 minutes in a sauna every day of the week. I don't disagree with most of the points @DaKrazedKyubizt made. It is still healthier than what he was eating and how he was living before going on this journey of weightloss.
@@theuproar6858To clarify, I feel like he's risking rhabdo by working out so much. I wasn't even aware that was a thing until I started really working out. I don't think I ever came close, but I was conscious of long-term overexertion and the importance of rest days.
Both of you seemed like you have been best friends for years! He got all of your jokes and cracked up each time. Awesome chemistry. You both should do another one. Will be checking out his channel for sure
Love this guy a lot. Hope he accomplishes his goal and then works to find a medium to stay healthy and happy.
This dude needs his own channel, I need more of this, hell it might fit around his routine.
Respect for this guy and admiration for his upbeat personality. Kudos to you!
This dude is the personification of the "cut's gonna be legendary bruh". But, seriously it's amazing man, keep pushing mate, you're doing great.
I used to drink 11 liters of water per day when I got from 232lbs down to 148lbs (105kg to 67kg) (heaviest I've ever been to lightest I've ever been in my adult life) in 8 months.
What worked for me:
-Intermitted fasting (skipping breakfast, then having 3-4 larger meals) between 1-9 pm eating period / 16 to 8 hours
-Lots of water (11 liters) - the trick is to use a lot of salt in all your meals - eat gherkins etc.
-Chewing gums (sugar free - calories are nullified by the chewing action) all day long whenever I'm not having a meal
-Mouth wash and brushing your teeth whenever you feel hungry with a bad taste in your mouth
-Walking outside once or twice a day in low pace while listening to a podcast or a comedy special or an audiobook for an hour
-I do weightlifting religiously now, but I did not do it back than when I dropped all that weight. Honestly, it felt like it was almost effortless.
Trust me, it's so much easier than you think. You really get used to the morning hunger, then for the rest of the day you will not feel hungry.
The only "difficult" part is quite a few visits to the restroom. At least once an hour.
Oh btw, I was working in an office environment 9-5 , 6 days a week with 1h of commute and socializing after work, dancing classes and living with my partner (additional responsibilities towards my partner etc.)
It really felt effortless, it wasn't even planned really, I did not set any goals, no calorie restrictions, just meal prep for the whole week. It's very easy, give it a shot and see how you go.
Hope this helps. Cheers.
11 liters of water is absolutely braindead, no matter how much salt or magnesium u take you will always have a disbalance of electrolytes unless you are somehow perfectly getting the amount of electrolytes per day, which mind you not is not only salt and magnesium.
Especially taking even a single multivitamin, as theyve been proven years ago to be unhelpful and possibly more harmful than useful.
Mouth wash and brushing your teeth whenever feeling hungry is another sure way of ruining your teeth for no reason.
What would actually work is dropping all the bullshit and building discipline and habits not doing gimmics
im turning 18 this year, im 5'8" and 70kg. It does not sound a lot but I am not happy with my body. i loved this comment sir, also, did you count your calories?
and umm, i chew gum alot, never knew sugarfree once existed. they sound fun
Thanks man imma try this
Bro you are killing it - From the perspective of also gone through a weightloss ride over my life (was 405 am now 220) You are an inspiration keep killing it
Will - your quick humor makes your videos that much better
i like this big guy. i can tell he's been through a lot of pain in his mind and has a good heart because of it.
I have a feeling he's going to need to gradually change his routine over the next few months; start to steadily reduce water intake, probably make some adjustments to diet. I'm not surprised he has issues with cramping; that water intake is flushing all the nutrients out. The impressive part is the gradual and ordered approach to lowering maximum lifts to a more sustainable level.
He has chrons so hes gonna be cramping regardless. Its also why he takes the supplements.
The amount of grit and determination that man has is nothing short of astounding. He also seems like an amazing dude!! Wishing him the absolute best :]
@@NicolasGarratthe was in the military??
@@NicolasGarrattthat would explain why he’s so extreme with everything
Good job...I'll be 50 yrs old this year. January first 2023 I was 362 pounds..today I'm down to 242...120 pound down...it feels great..continue to push hard the reward is greater.
I'll be 51 in December about a year and a half ago I was around 380 pounds now I am between 320 to 330 not bad but I need both of my knees replaced and my right hip is on it's way out just from compensating for my knees. I was in the 8th grade the first time I twisted my left knee and then 15 or more times during double days football practice before my freshman year I finally told the coaches one more time and I'm done got my GED at 15. My right knee has been a one and done complete dislocation it did the Zorro sign being young and dumb in my mid twenties at home not work but I was at work two day's later doing asphalt repair cement ditch sandblasting and crack filing stupid right just two day's if you don't have bills to pay or family to feed working10 hour days without any pain meds not even now and I have people telling me how you didn't have this or that company pay to get things fixed when the injuries were not work related. To top it all off you try and get help from social security and or disability benefits and get lied to and denied don't tell them you want to get medical procedures done so you'll be able to go back into the workforce again and provide for yourself because if there's anything that can be done to fix it whether or not you can afford it your not disabled. Sorry for the rant just sick of all the BS if I was a horse someone would have taken out behind the barn and scratch my chin a bit thin put one right between my eye's.
needed to see this ! thank you!
This was such a refreshing look at weight loss - I've went through what he's gone through ( from 415 lbs down to 219 in ~400days) and this guy's mentality was on point. His goals are not what 99.9% of other people's goals are, so he's doing what 99.9% of other people won't do. He's made up his mind and chosen to alter his entire trajectory to attain the goal of bettering himself. That is what it takes and its incredible to see - very inspiring! Much love and thanks for the share Will!
But after the goal is attained he still has to find a more reasonable method. He can't be extreme forever.
Well, im gonna have to screenshot this because this was an amazing read. congratulations on your weight loss!!! thats amazing!!
If he can figure out to lose it I have confidence Simon can figure out how to sustain it, he is no dummy.@@user-nj5vu6ed3j
The moment he re-enters the real world, things will start to fall apart. He needs something much more sustainable.
99.9% of people can't afford to take a year off work and not end up homeless and starving lol
My man is killin it’. While you definitely don’t have to do an absolutely insane lifestyle change like this to get results I understand that so many people do so much better when they are very rigid with themselves.
My biggest piece of advice from somebody who lost 60 pounds doing Keto and intense restrictive diets (not really my thing anymore) is that when it’s time to go back to a more maintenance style of eating and working out is to MAKE SURE to have some sort of support system to keep you accountable. Whether that’s going to therapy or plugging yourself in with some friends who are going through the same situation as you, having other people around to keep you accountable and motivated is so important.
😮Eating and working out how intensely he is just isn’t sustainable for most people for the rest of their lives and the transition period can be so difficult. You almost feel like you’re cheating when you actually eat something that you truly enjoy and it’s so easy to fall off the wagon and crush 2 combo meals from Micky D’s again lol
Much love though and his motivation and results are amazing!
Damn thats a lot of food to eat everyday! That said, this guy is one of the coolest, real dudes Ive seen on YT! Very inspirational journey brother!
This is awesome! We need more people like this making videos
Bro didn't want to "over complicate" things, and then proceeded to throw in pretty much every supplement under the sun. LMAO!
If you think by taking 4 types of vitamins/minerals is overcomplicating, then u must have large vitamin deficiency
@S0n11x If your meal consists only of whole foods, like Rice, lentils, veggies, fruits, eggs, milk, chicken, you won't have "large vitamin deficiency". How about you stop eating every garbage known to mankind that big companies try to shove down your throat and then talk.
And working out 3 times a day over an hour each session. It's crazy lol
@@S0n11xif you have a proper diet you don't need supplements lol
@@Ryan-wx1bi some people need more than what YOUR "proper diet" is.
Really enjoyed that. Very inspirational. Loved the "Rule of Two"
Very inspirational. Thanks man. I'm 43 and I will make changes in my life like you are doing.
I really enjoyed this video through the humor and reality of this man's life changes. Thanks for sharing guys!!! 💪🙌🙏
I’m supportive of his journey, and I’m gonna get flayed over this, but i think he’s on some kind of gear. Just look at his jaw line and transformation in under a year
I was skeptical till he started talking about his loss of strength I don’t know, but somebody losing 100lbs in 5 months whilst still maintaining that kind of frame , on top of eating 7 times a day not even counting calories , it’s a little bit sus , if anybody else lost 100lbs in 5 months it would be a complete crash diet and they’d look like they’ve got a terminal illness not this full with traps bursting out their vest.
Dude I’m thinking the same thing. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it though. But I definitely don’t think he’s natural. If you’ve taken gear or been around dudes on gear, there are multiple telltale signs of them being on something. And he has a lot of them. But hey, it’s his life. I hope it all works out for him. Probably healthier being on a low dose of T and working out daily than being 400 pounds and morbidly obese.
@@theblissfulbeliever i couldn’t agree more. And i definitely didn’t want to shame him. He’s doing great, and hopefully he’s healthy!
@@97shaggy yeah, it leaves a lot to question. Either way, he’s doing great, and i just hope that if he is supplementing, he’s healthy
Yeah he's putting in work, but he's on something besides all those multivitamins, lol.
The energy this guy has is awesome, congrats bro on the +90 pounds lost, keep working hard, you really got my respect when you decided to give 1 year to fix your body, amazing commitment and work ethic
thanks for posting this i needed this im currently doing a slightly less intense routine but this showed me im making the right choice
I love when he said he doesn’t over complicate, it can lead to failure. So many programs over complicate it.
This guy's a hero.
But...
I really hope people know this is an unnecessarily aggressive way to lose weight... I lost over 100lbs lifting the big 3, 3 times a week (45 minutes in the gym), jumping rope 3 times a week, walking 4 miles a day, drinking 3-4 litres of water a day and really enjoying my cooking (3 meals a day: pre, post and soup before bed). No supplements, no modcons, yoga every morning.
Learn to cook and eat some vegetables.
Yeah I agree, but obviously everyone has different goals, and as he said he quit his job and does fitness 7 days a week. So it’s understandable the way he does things. Definitely not the healthiest. And most people should do what he’s doing.
Kind of curious how you structured this? Seems like you were getting about 3 workouts a day?
- Yoga in the morning,
- 4 mile walk at some point.
- Then either a weightlifting session or a jump session.
Also curious what you mean by "3 meals a day: pre, post and soup before bed"
We're you effectively doing like 20:4 fasting regime, with two meals and soup? So eat a meal, workout, eat 2nd meal, and then soup a bit later?
I think it's more of the mindset that conditions the actions. He must have detested what he saw in the mirror and so in order to achieve a sense of balance in the mid point, he needs to go just as hard in the opposite direction.
I can relate to him except I was the skinny kid that got picked on.
@@ericcollins6231 Hello, sir! With regard to the food, I mostly work afternoon - evening, So I'd eat breakfast around an hour before leaving for the gym, 10am or so, and eat again after, around 1-2pm. Then I'd eat soup and fish at about 10pm when I got home from work. Not much fasting to speak of but a long gap between lunch and dinner that I got used to (in Spain we eat dinner at 10).
I was getting one workout a day. The yoga I speak of was and is mostly to rehabilitate massive knee surgery, and is not incredibly taxing... aimed at getting my squat back. I ran GCZLP 3 times a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and jumped rope for half an hour on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday. Bare in mind that the cardio was short and intense and was aimed at improving my mental wellbeing, not at fat loss. My general change of lifestyle contributed mostly to the fat loss, and the 4 miles a day became automatic after a while, sometimes exceeding 15 miles on a Sunday. (I walk and read, walk and read, walk and read, until the sun goes down). I also don't consider walking a workout. It's a necessity.
Hope that helped!
@@ericcollins6231
Hello, sir!
With regards to the food, I ate (and eat) 3 meals a day, pretty spaced out. I work afternoons-evenings and go to the gym before work, so will eat my breakfast before gym at about 1000-1100 am and lunch before leaving at around 1300-1400. Then I'll have dinner when I get back at about 2200. Not much fasting to speak of but a huge gap between lunch and dinner which I got used to (in Spain we eat dinner at 2200)
With regards to the workout, I do not consider walking or (my way of doing) yoga a workout. The former is a general necessity of life, and the latter I do to rehabilitate massive knee surgery that I had 10 years ago and to get my squat back. I ran GZCLP 3 days a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and jumped rope on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday for half an hour each time. The cardio was short and intense, aimed at improving my mental wellbeing, not at burning fat. The general lifestyle change mainly contributed to the fat loss, and the 4 miles a day became automatic, sometimes exceeding 15 miles on Sundays, when I walk, read, walk, read, walk and read until the sun goes down.
Anyway, hope that helped.
Wow! Just Wow! Good for him. Thanks for sharing. I'm currently where he was at his begining and this is great motivation. Although I can't quit my job to workout full time, it still motivates me to get out and do samething, anything.
Kudos to Simon, his discipline is motivating and inspiring!
i really need to get motivated again to lose weight again, i went from 350 to 190 now im back up to it again. Need to fix it all. Love watching these type of videos to try and establish motivation. Thank you will for your content
He says "I dont count calories because I dont wanna overcomplicate things" and proceeds to overcomplicate a lot things with eating every 2h, using a lot of suplements and using desnecessary amounts of water
Yet he's lost 90 lbs in 5 months.
@@xm3ntal620 Yeah thats incredible! Im really happy for him! It's just a strange quote given the context
@@IntelR drinking water has a thermic effect where your body spends energy to get it transported everywhere.
I wouldnt drink 12l personally, his body should tell him soon enough if it is to much or not.
@@HATEregelt Where did you get this info man?
well i mean i suppose he knows hes “overcomplicating” things doing what people dont normally do which is what what works best for him which is enough in itself especially from an outside stand point,imagine if he was counting calories on top of that how hard that would be and frankly how easy it would be to give up.
Love this guy’s personality
Damm. thank you
@@SimonGoliathLafontant you and Will would make a good duo
@@SimonGoliathLafontantI wish you the very best in life Simon. One day at a time is all any of us can do.
I really loved this video. Thank you for sharing! What an inspiration!
This video reassures my fitness/weight loss journey, thank you guys!!
@3:52 I agree with him. I feel like that’s why so many fail. They over complicate it. With macros, calorie counting apps, an array of supplements. Just start. Be consistent and worry about all that stuff after you’ve overcome the first obstacle of just going to the gym or eating healthier.
Thank you so much for this. Fate landed this in my feed for a reason. Im currently in my journey and this help light the flame even bigger!!! LETS GOOOOO!!!!
When he said it was a small trade off from depression and he said bad habits and self hatered, it spoke to me, but I'm where he is now, I love working out, my life is in a routine, good sleep, and work is good. I started at 165kgs now down to 138.9kgs and loving life.
I'm all for this and I'm so happy he can change his life. Telling people it's never to late to change your life... but I can't help thinking that most people probably don't have the resources to just take time off to make that change...
most people, infact almost everybody, has the chance to eat less, build discipline and use common sense when building habits and eating
@@casperkoivisto487and just running it’s not hard to just go out and run instead of destroying yourself at the gym lol bros lifting but trying to lose weight he’s definitely on gear.
I’m currently on a weight loss journey myself. 11 months in down almost 100 pounds. I relate to this guy so much. Mad respect for you bro. Started from the bottom now we here💪🏻🤞🏻
Congrats thats awesome!!! Just starting mine and all this is very inspiring
@@jaelatina410 I love to hear that! They say it only takes 21 days to create new habits. It’s an amazing lifestyle change. Please comment back here in the future and let me know how your progress is going! I’m rooting for you!

Hell yeah dude!!!! Hope you hit that 100 soon!!!!
Very much enjoyed this video. He’s such an inspiration for change 💪🏼
Motivation, dedication, and consistency…keep up the great work!
One of my favorite videos you have made. The message and the jokes were on point.
If only I didn’t have to work a full time job
That's only 1/3rd of your day tho.
You can find an hour a day to work out. Even walking around your neighborhood for 40 mins a day will help you. Get to it mommy8300!
@@Ryan-wx1bithe other third is your sleep, that leaves you one third of your day, inthe last third you spend it the ride on your way to work or home, making food, time for family, or friends, showeriy, maybe you got one hour for training
@@Ryan-wx1bifor that one hour, its best to do compound exercise, one day compound, and other day one hour cardio
@@Ryan-wx1biThat's a stupid reply. People who work have a minimum 8 hours less than this guy to reach their goals and it's simply not attainable to train more than once a day and meal prep several tiny meals for the day unless you have nothing else going on in your life except the gym.
He’s made such an incredible change I absolutely love how happy, motivated and positive he is! What an amazing story! Oh no way could I drink that much water
Awesome work losing 100 lbs! It's no joke being super committed to turning your life around. I hope he finds balance and new purpose once he reaches his goals! Also, I just want to say, I really appreciate the music on some of these videos! It's my second time noticing the GOAT Ludwig's work being used to build some suspense. Shout out to the Editor making these videos and knowing when to use a great score!
Hi Will! Loved the video. Brittany Broski once mentioned on her podcast that whenever she does physically exerting things she feels the need to cry and gets overwhelmed. I'm curious if your open, fun, understanding approach to fitness and how it's a different journey for everyone would help her lose weight (as she's talked about wanting to do) and her recent diagnosis of PCOS. You and Brittany collaborating would probably be one of the most hilarious and eye openings collabs yet!!!
I feel like I'm almost exactly in his position. About to turn 30 this year, went from 310 - 259 (today) in about 6 months. It feels surreal and I cant wait to keep going.
I'll be honest tho, the last 13lbs lost were cause I was sick for about a month and couldn't workout or eat much, so most weight loss last month was muscle and I'm scared to gain it all back in fat instead. But this dude is so inspiring.
i love this dude's program. focuses on challenging the body and eating right. i love that he doesn't count calories and just focus on protein, fruits, & vegetables
Much much respect bro! I started 2 months ago at 260 and am now at 245. You inspire and motivate me - thanks!
Love the Quebecer swear part !
A lot of people are criticizing him but you must understand, the only thing that matters is that he's comfortable doing this, it's amazing that a guy can lose weight however intensely and still get criticized. This is what works for him. I started at 339 and currently at 281. Its hard to lose weight.
Especially if you've been obese ~ 300 lbs range for that long, it's not even a diet or physical exercise change, it's a lifestyle change
This guy said he been 350 lbs for all his life.
I'm at 270 lbs dropped 15lbs and still going
I feel you bro
hardcore dedication there. salute to him
This vid motivated me in so many ways.needed this good luck bro on your journey
Someone told this man that you can't outtrain a bad diet and he said "Yes I can"
You can’t. That’s why he changed his diet as well as starting to train 🤦🏻♂️ if he tried to out train the diet he had before he wouldn’t have lost anywhere near as much.
The mythical type A personality. A personal trainers dream client. The perfect client. The guy that has the willpower to do anything it takes. The guy that can stick to a boring routine for months or years. It isn’t necessary but it makes getting results pretty goddamn easy.
The Sauna is increasing his IGF-1 by at least 4 fold if he’s doing that daily. Research has been pretty solid on this.
Real leaders empower! Great content collaborating with people like him who are battling
The big guy was highly motivational ...I'm raising my game !!!
15:18 That pure french Canadian swear caught me off guard omg 🤣🤣🤣'' Ah tabarnac esprit d'saint siboire ''😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very impressed with the weight loss, great work. I do have a question though. Did you have to quit your job to accomplish this, or do you work from home somehow? I don't see how you can start your day that early, maintain that strict eating and workout schedule, and somehow work a full time job.
When they ordered the burgers and said (why do you hate yourself so much) wow self discipline is the highest form of love
“It’s a very small trade off for not being depressed anymore” aawww that’s deep❤. Wish you the best success….. don’t give up your doing amazing.
"I figured if I added too many steps to my weight loss, and overcomplicate things, I would have a higher chance of failure"
