Looking forward to seeing more videos!!! All the best and good luck with growing your channel. Did you know that you could use followsm. c o m??? You could use it to promote your videos.
Complete nonsense. Where is your proof? All I heard is a bunch of non sequiturs.
Calories do matter and you are just trying to be rebellious and different.
Wow, you are so good at your profession! Thanks for the great videos!
I eat what I want, just counting calories (2000 calories a day) and exercising. And I’m losing weight. I don’t want to quit all the foods I love. A diet isn’t good for me (I tried many times). This is the first time, it’s working and I’m sticking to it. I’m losing weight slowly, but steadily. No better way to go about it:).
I eat pretty simple, lots of meat, eggs and a few low carb foods. I don’t do anything fancy, so i find it easier to add up at the end of the day.
This video couldn’t be further from the truth… I’ve always counted calories and I can control my weight in every aspect
I’m currently doing Intermittent fasting and keto. I do Intermittent whenever I feel like doing, it’s not strict. After changing my lifestyle, I immediately dropped 20 lbs and I feel less hungry. I learned to control myself. I’m even refusing tasty fastfood and junk foods whenever I go out or hang out with my friends because I always feel full and satiated.
Just wonderful Dr Berry. This is one of the best videos I have seen in a long time. Thank you so much. Calorie counting is just BS on so many levels.
If I don’t lose 10 pounds by end of August I have to give up
Did any of you even watch the video? lol I know he’s trying to advertise his product but like… Watch the damn video before y’all jump to conclusions, god damn.
me and thousands of other people who have lost weight counting calories: bruh.
Um… I lost 47lbs. With calorie counting and feel amazing, that was also over a year ago and I’ve gained no weight back since. Perfect diet if you you stick with it.
Hello, I lost about 5 kg in 2 weeks, but i dont see any small changes in my body, I lost 2 % of fat and also gained about 2% muscle weight, but i dont feel any different
At least it makes more sense listening to established medical experts with no impressive physiques then self-established juiced-up fitness freaks! Thanks Dr!
Hogwash. Counting calories is the only way I lose weight. Now it is important to get enough nutrients within your calorie count. I eat around 1400 calories a day and that works for me.
I was very skinny and after changing my diet I finally started seeing results. I didn’t know anything about training and diet, but my friend told me for the website called NextLevelDiet and I just followed their diet and training plan. They have amazing tips 😉 check it out
Dr. I had a gastric sleeve am one year post op. Heaviest:240. Now 170lb This last 3 months i cant lose a lb.. I work out 5 days a week..pouch not stretched… Good macros and protein…why cant i lose the last 15-20lbs.
I eat less, work out more, never snack…
You might say keto and intermenting fasting are better for being not hungry but no one is going to stick to them. Just eat low calorie dense foods so you can eat a lot without getting fat
The second question helped for me kati as in you awnsering it as I get so angry when people tell me I look healthier or better as I take as people saying that I have put on weight which to me is a bad thing! Thankyou kati your amazing and I love your videos!
I’ve been following you for a while now and there’s a (off-topic) question I just have to ask now. What is that thing on the wall behind you?? Maybe I’m weird but I just can’t figure it out, haha!
The answer to the last question has made my day. I’m currently 26 and have only just seemed help despite having mental health issues all my life. I also don’t even remember before I was 14. So I struggle constantly with feeling like I’ve “lost” so much of my life. Thank you for giving me a new way to see it.:)
Something interesting to watch for calorie counters. Some of the studies mentioned in this video give much weight to Dr Weiner’s proposed eating program.
Nuts and Obesity: The Weight of Evidence
People try not to comment on my appearance, but sometimes my parents can’t help but tell me I look healthy or I look like I’m not eating enough. My boyfriend has no idea how to interact with me during relapses so he tells me I’m too skinny a lot, it’s not his fault or anyone else who makes comments but sometimes people don’t have the restraint to keep their mouths shut.
The intention of this video was to encourage a perspective shift on calories in a succinct package. I still see a lot of arguments like “Keto/Low Carb is a fad, it’s all about simple thermodynamics” floating around. ( https://bit.ly/2ISDNDl ) This brief historical point of “what was measured first” has stood out to me for a while, and I thought it could be an interesting tidbit for many people. Maybe if radioimmunoassay was invented much earlier we’d be saying “It’s all about simple endocrinology” then again, endocrinology isn’t simple…
Hey Kati my school are having this thing on the last day of school were we go back to registration for the last hour on the last day my tutor has organised a thing were we bring in food this is scaring me because I think people with judge me for not eating but if I do eat I won’t feel happy I am trying to recover for my ED but I am building up to eating normally again
Knowledge is power…tanks alot for making this great effort to educate us Dr Berry!!!
Idk I’ve been eating less but also cut carbs more, and feel less hungry doing the same amount of excercise. Not doing fasting just eating less
You CANNOT ignore calories, if you body burns, say 2500 cal a day and you eat 3000 a day those extra cals go to fat, period. I am a bodybuilder and can tell you that when a competitive bodybuilder is on last month of diet he goes on a keto diet but also eats a lot less calories to get that last bit of fat off. Of course if you are just fat looking to lose a few lbs keto will help because normally you don’t as much, less calories again but to get shredded you really need to pull back on those cals. You are not a bodybuilder and don’t have a clue to get ripped. Stop spreading untruths to the people foolish enough to think you know what you are talking about even though you are a country doctor.
Can you do a follow up video on Reverse Dieting? Increasing your metabolism by slowly increasing your calories.. Or whatever
Drink water like a camel? Dude they can go months without drinking, that’s why they have humps �� really hope that was a joke
Is 1st law thermodynamics still the bottom line? Energy in vs Energy out is it still matter? Can anyone tell me. So many information i so lost.
So if you cut down 3500 calories a week = you’ll lose 1 pound. So if 200 pound someone does this for 200 weeks they will weigh 0? Of course not. Your body adjusts ASAP. The only way to lose weight is to reduce insulin spikes in your body, that’s possible through fasting and by not eating carbs.
I’m done I’m so fucking done like really! I’m so done with trying it always leads me at the very beginning point WHY AM I HERE!!!!!
You still need to count cals to lose weight on keto. You can’t eat 5000 cals a day and not gain weight. Pro bodybuilders on their last few weeks of prep on keto diet still keep low cals
Let me summon coach greg for a seconGreg: YOU MOROOOOOOOONSSS I HAVE A MASTERS IN KINESIOLOGY IT’S CALORIES IN CALORIES OUT YOU CAN’T BEAT THERMO DYNAMICS WITH YOUR HORMONES YOU FREAKING IDIOTS
welll, there are many studies that reveal that high carb diets do that. Thing is, when a person is overweight, they need to work of keeping it off. Its about a change in lifestyle. No other way bob
You can’t break the laws of thermal dynamics = you still have to count calories… you’re just saying that body composition and hunger depend on macro and micro nutrient balances?
I don’t want to do keto anymore I felt hungry as well cutting all my carbs made me anxious I did keto for 3 months and was horrible for me
What if I told you you are advocating for a low calorie diet…. please tell me what foods I can eat to change my hormones so I can eat 3000 calories a day and still loose weight.
They lost 100lb-200lb. Do you expect more leptin in the blood system??
How are carbs dangerous when people are being cured of type two diabetes with a starch based diet??
Another danger of this calories in calories out myth is that people think that they can routinely eat high sugar wheat treats as long as they keep it within 2000 calories, and that they can snack throughout the day as long as they keep it within 2000 calories, when both of those things are causing serious hormonal issues that are keeping them from getting healthy and losing weight.
The days I have been counting, I’m eating about 500-600 a day. People tell me I’m starving myself but I’m not hungry. Most days my husband finishes my plate. Is it safe to eat that many? I’d really love to stop worrying about them.
hi thank you for your work, can you please enabled community contributions for this video, so we can translate it
What I tell people is you want to see about how many calories you eat in a day keep track of all the grams of fat and carbs and protein you eat in a day and then use the 6-6-9 method. Protein and carbs are 6. Fats are 9. But that just satisfies the learning we got decades ago.
One day people will see how ‘ahead of its time’ this video was if that makes sense. Changing the calorie expenditure mindset will take a long time
Counting calories helped me lose 87lbs. I have plenty of energy and I’m not hungry all the time. I’m actually less hungry now then I was before I started eating better and counting calories.
i ate 1 meal a day for 4 months and lost almost 50 lbs and normalized my high blood sugar. Insulin can keep you fat.
