Counting Calories Is A Ridiculous Way To Try And Lose Weight | Think | NBC News
Video taken from the channel: NBC News
Counting calories is often panned by trendy diet experts, but the fact is that creating a calorie deficit is the foundation of any diet. Every weight loss program that works has you reduce your calories enough to create a deficit. Consider carb-cutting diets. The carbs you cut are usually refined carbs, like bread or white rice or baked goods.
There are three reasons why calorie counting works: Tracking your calories can help you identify which eating patterns you need to modify to successfully lose weight ( 50 ).It sounds simple. However, it’s more complex because when you lose weight, you usually lose a combination of fat, lean tissue and water.
Also, because of changes that occur in the body as a result of weight loss, you may need to decrease calories further to continue weight loss.Counting calories can encourage you to ignore your hunger cues. Focusing entirely on calories, instead of the quality of the food you’re eating and how you actually feel before chowing down.
That’s why it’s so important to consider the big picture when considering which foods are best for weight loss. Calorie value is only one piece of the puzzle.This simple fact means that counting calories and limiting your intake can be effective to prevent weight gain or lose weight, as long as you manage to stick to it. One review found that weight.
The best way to break this fattening cycle is to replace processed carbs with healthy fats, argues Dr. Ludwig: “Fats don’t raise insulin at all, so they can be a key ally for weight loss.”.If you’re counting calories to lose weight, but eating higher-fat foods like bacon and full-fat cheese, you could potentially consume over half your day’s calorie allotment by the end of breakfast.The Step Diet: What It Is.
If you are looking for a way to lose weight, keep it off forever and be healthier, then the Step Diet is for you. There’s no counting of carbs, fat grams, or calories.Counting Calories To Lose Weight Fast: Lose Weight And Prevent Cancer With Total Cleanse: With more and more people eating processed foods that contain little to no dietary fiber, it extremely is no wonder one in extremely four Americans are clinically obesene product that has hit the business is Total Cleanseotal Cleanse is a high fiber dietary supplement that helps you flush weight and.
Advantages: One advantage of calorie counting over more structured diets is that calorie information is readily available and easy to track — especially now that many restaurants include calorie information on their menus or websites.I agree that diets and calorie or macro counting can work in the short-term for weight loss but research shows us that it does not work for long-term weight loss maintenance. The majority of people will regain the weight by the 6 year follow-up mark and up to 2/3 will put on more weight.
The calorie calculator is very useful for weight management as it displays how many calories are needed over the specified period of time. It keeps track of your weight loss and calories required. The less you weigh, the fewer calories you will need to take in for weight loss to continue.Most carrot cake uses a crap ton of butter, sugar, and nuts, so the calorie count is going to be naturally high. If I had to take a guess, I’d say the slice of carrot cake above is 300-400 calories.
So the next time you look up the calorie count of a dish online and it sounds too good to be true it probably is.Correlation is not causation, so it would be wrong to say that counting calories causes obesity. However, at best, counting calories seems to be an imperfect aid to weight control. So what’s really going on?
As it turns out, hormonal regulation may be the key.

I really dont like counting calories cause it stresses me out and I gained a bunch of weight after loosing it. I started to write it down in a journal right before I go to bed, I was wondering, do you get really sleepy when your body goes on starvation mode? because I didn’t have any energy for anything for a while I literally come home and just want to lay down:(
Oh my gosh you’re making me tear up!! You’re honestly such an inspiration to me ❤️❤️
Ah yes. I love breaking the laws of thermodynamics.
Go back to high school man.
You can eat at a calorie deficit without counting every calorie
so if this is true, how do anorexics lose weight? Because they do eat, but less than 500 calories a day mmmmmm
I wanna lose weight should I eat less? “Yes!” Okay. Jk that makes no difference.. what? Listen if I eat less I’m gonna lose weight it’s common since I’ve done it
this video comment section taught me most people are morons when it comes to nutrition. A calorie is a metric of how much food energy is literally burned in a literal fire. your body does NOT take food and burn it with fire. Therefore this metric is basically useless from a nutritional standpoint. Dr. Fung’s point was that certain foods release certain hormones, so pure sugar calories are going to release fat storage hormones where as protein and fat calories don’t provoke that response in the body as much.
where is your black body suit from? ����
love your videos. such a inspiration
Just fyi… protein isnt high on keto… its moderate, cause your body can break down proteins like carbs… so you cant eat too much protein. Fat yes! High fat for sure:)
theres so muccccccch info to take in when trying to eat healthy….. one place says less calories others say calories dont matter one says to much fruit is bad one says to much fruit is bad…. stuff like that then you hear that fats are bad but now your body needs them! its so confusing. Counting calories can be good when loosing weight, I lost 2 stone by doing it that way. If your just being healthy theres no need to count them really.
Counting calories is not ridiculous. Creating a calorie deficit is the only way to lose fat. This video is not helpful for confused overweight people trying to change their habits.
Just to clarify:
3/12 Starch (Complex Carbs)
4/12 Protein
5/12 Fiber (Complex Carbs)
side note* edamame contains more protein than fiber and could be used as a protein source for a plant based/vegan/vegetarian diet. However, in this case assuming you already have your protein source edamame is also good source of fiber & good fats!
Seriously! Im really sick of everyone trying to say something different! Like make up all of your minds or f*** off!
I lost 10 kgs with calorie deficit in 6 months…however now I am excercising twice…eating same calories and not losing weight! He is right
It’s like saying a pound of feather or a pound or rocks which of those are heavier. Calories in calories out. Just be in a caloric deficit. It’s not that hard. Ppl just make it hard by tryin to tell you what to do when it comes to Marcos counting.
I lost 60 pounds counting calories. You can prove this wrong from first hand experience and scientifically. A calorie is a unit of measurement for energy. Calculate your basil metabolic rate + any calories burned through exercise if any and eat in a caloric deficit (eat less calories than you burn/less than your basil metabolic rate) download the app lose it!
I mean sure, I’m not gonna try and debunk a scientist but when I eat 1200 calories I lose weight consistently.
I am a male in my 50s, 5’3″ in height. After several back surgeries, I ballooned to 203lbs (was at a chunky 145lbs before surgery). It took me a little over a year to get down to 128lbs (3lbs from my goal). I counted calories AND I quit using back pain as an excuse not to exercise. Lost 8″ in my waist and double digit BMI. My success was the fact I counted calories which enabled me to reduce my weight to a level that it was no longer dangerous or excruciating to exercise. COUNTING CALORIES WAS THE KEY TO MY SUCCESS
counting calories can be done on home made food healthy food healthy choices
just to make sure you are not over eating
because when the food is tasty people tend to eat more
in that case calarie counting can be done with a balanced diet
lol how can someone calarie count on junk food the whole day
Really
Also we need to Workout as well
Strength trading also
I just wished our bodies would actually speak out loud and literally tell us this is exactly how much I need to eat to either lose, gain or maintain weight, without depending on stupid calculators because every body burns differently calculators don’t consider metabolism.
Thank you so much for the info girl! A video of post-workout foods would be amazing ❤️
I have a slight issue with the phrase “eating less” that she says several times. A person can actually eat a greater volume of food and less calories by incorporating more vegetables. You don’t need to starve or even feel hungry to create a calorie deficit.
Definitely shouldn’t call this “Why You Should Stop Counting Calories”
but more like
“It’s Not As Easy As Just Counting Calories”
because I can somewhat agree. Every body has a different reaction to things. But counting calories is still a VERY important step to lose weight.
To the person reading this that is on the market for their next diet: Skip advice from guys like this, tune it out of your life, and do this one thing instead: count your calories. It works. And you won’t be wasting your time overcomplicating things. Chances are you’ll have succes if you do this and make it a habit. If you want to make sure, then don’t make it your “diet”. Keep watching your calorie intake even after you’ve lost weight, and you will accurately be able to control your weight.
Lol so if I increase my caloric intake by 50% my metabolism will go up by 50% and the calories I eat will balance out and I wont gain any weight? LMAOOOOO ok dude
I started crying when you were getting emotional! I 100% understand how you feel about accidentally losing weight. I’m in that stage at the moment where I’ve under-eaten and overtrained for so long that I struggle to lose any body fat at all.
You’ve really inspired me, so I’m taking a page out of your book and focusing on my health this year! Xx
i have an eating disorder & im trying not to coUNT CALORIES and it’s so hard but it’s less stress (kind of)
It’s pretty simple. If you aren’t losing weight after some time then lower your calories. Yes, your basal metabolic rate changes as your body changes, but that’s why you keep track of your weight loss and the calories you’re consuming. If your BMR slows, then you drop calories. It’s not rocket science. Be patient, listen to your body, COUNT YOUR CALORIES, track your weight loss, then adjust as needed. It’s not hard. Everyone overcomplicates weight loss probably because they are struggling at it themselves because they aren’t doing the necessary things like I mentioned above, so they blame other factors. Yet, let me watch everything you eat for months on end and count your calories and I can tell you why you’re not losing weight. People simply aren’t doing it right then justifying why they can’t. They are either lazy, not educated enough, not doing it properly or making excuses. If you look at the tragic events of the holocaust and those forced into concentration camps, these guys were skin and bones because they were forced to not eat and they were starving. It’s not like those in concentration camps had the luxury of making excuses or overcomplicating weight loss, like a lot of people who are overweight in our societies. So yes, it’s common sense the less food (calories) you eat you WILL lose weight. Don’t overcomplicate it! These type of videos above are crap and just hoopla
Its not a ridiculous way at all. It’s an imperfect way that works.
It might not be 100% scientific correct to say that a calorie is a calorie. But actively watching your intake and expenditure will allow you to control your fat percentage.
Does Custokebon Secrets really help to lost a ton of weight? We’ve learn many good things about this popular weight loss methods.
It’s a guarantee if you burn more calories than you eat you will lose weight. I think in simpler terms if you eat less but also move less then there is no deficit. The only way to truly be in a deficit is to be slightly hungry. If you aren’t a tad bit hungry, you’ve eaten the same calories as you burned or more.
If there are any ppl on here saying “shes wrong,calorie counting works”. Please check out Dr. Jason Fungs videos. He is very informative and talks A lot about this exact topic. Autumn is right in this video. Its facts, plain and simple.
I was having a pizza with my friend when he said he was on a diet and pizza is his regular cheat meal and part of diet plan he got from *Next Level Diet*. I thought he was crazy, but after a month I noticed his body has changed a lot. He looked better than ever. I should really visit that website
Ok, here is why JM is wrong.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaPJMuTNLXI
Watch Supersize vs Superskinny program. Most super skinny people there survive on sugar alone. Crisps, chocolate bars, Coke, some drink 20 teas a day with 5 sugars in each cup. The only reason they stay skinny and underweight they eat very few calories, even if those calories are sugar!
My own friend is living proof. Vegan, eating carbs only, including all the refined “bad” ones and sugar but she only eats tiny portions. She’s 53kg and 172cm. Skinny! And not even put on weight during lockdown…
I have learned so much through the “Kοnοnοz yyd” (Search it on Gοοglε) and also have shed some ugly belly fat i never ever assumed I could get rid of and it permitted me to do it the healthy way. Since then, I have lost 15 lbs of my very own weight and also have ripped my body, a way better than heading to a health and fitness center. I feel as if it has granted me more strength..
This man is incredible! Look up his youtube videos and books!
Nah it works and teaches you to eat responsibly
Lost 9 pounds
It’s not what you eat, it’s how much. I lost weight by eating croissants and pizza, just limited the portions and ate a lot of fruit and veg in between
you should watch Greg doucette Calories are caloies it doesnt matter
I calculated my Calories for a day, and I only eat around 700. I should be as thin as a Pencil! LOL!!! I’m barely hungry. However, I’m ALWAYS thirsty.
Before there was Greg there was Jillian. Calorie deficit morons!
I think he’s a biochemistry nerd and he believes in fasting and the benefits it has chronic diseases like diabetes where hormones like insulin are key to solving those issues. He’s interested in the hormones and other biochemical signals released in the blood stream in response to diets and exercise. Our body does respond to calorie deficits by decreasing our metabolic rate which makes us lose less fat even when we are at a deficit. We call this a plateau and to fix it, we change our diet temporarily to get our bodies to biochemically change our metabolic rate. Then we go back to our calorie deficit and our bodies take time to adapt again. During that time, we lose weight. So he’s right, but he’s also misleading in how he presents the idea because he wants your attention. If it was impossible to lose weight or a “waste of time” counting calories, then there would not be a mountain of scientific evidence that suggests that it works as a weight loss strategy. And as most people in the comments have pointed out, they’re losing weight just fine. I’ve tried counting calories and I lost weight consistently as well.
It wasn’t ridiculous for me. I lost 19 lbs in 3 months and dropped my waistline by about 4 inches. Despite what snake oil salesmen tell you it’s very simple. To lose weight you have use more energy than you consume. No rocket science involved.
I lost 50 pounds by tracking my calories. Yes, I also changed my Diet (Home cooked, no junk food, sweets, alcohol, soda etc), and did some exercise,..but no cardio,…mostly weights. If the thesis in this video is true, I could reduce my calorie intake to (lets say) 500 cal or even 300 cal a day, and my body would adjust?,…I would loose no weight??? What if I only eat 10 calories a day, would my body adjust or would I loose weight to the point where I eventually starve? I know that we digest different nutrition in different ways, and that there are people who have a higher metabolism rate than others,…but that only means, that you have to find your specific calorie requirement. Yes, the BMR tools will give you just a rough idea,…but a very useful one. Your body will adjust, but only within boundaries and you will have to react to it. It took almost a year until i reached a plateau and had to change things up a little.
Browse google to discover relating to this diet guide “Kοnοnοz yyd” (Google it). Just after 3 weeks of usage, I have noticed results just like dropping 12 lbs in my excess fat whilst not adjusting a lot on my exercise and dieting. It really feels good to have this. I really believe it has determined me and also inspired me..
Well, what he said is partially true. When you reduce calories in or exceed your calories out, your Basic Metabolic Rate will reduce, but it will not reduce so much. But that is the way too loose fat, if your BMR reduce and your weight reduction is stagnant, just go lower on calories. Your BMR will not forever reduce. Take some coffee or tea to boost it for a while when you wanna do some work.
Hey, Im a doctor too, but don’t just trust the word because he is a doctor.
The only way to reduce fat is eat less calories and workout more.
If you don’t believe me try his method…. if its not working try the traditional method (eat low calories and workout). You prove it yourself
I heard enough of the hormone nonsense which does minimal on weight loss on human population in comparison to eating too much.
I wish if I knew you earlier Jilian. I had a keto diet with intermittent fasting for a whole year and it affected my health really bad. Now I counting calories and eating balanced diet healthy carbs of veggies and grains.
O.M.G you’re amazing I was just about to start a Keto diet and with all the things that you said I was at aw..// thank you so much…. EXERCISE AND COUNTING CALORIES…. that’s all there is to it and that’s the way. Saludos desde Mexico ����
I’m 42. I have been counting calories for a year now. At 5’11 feet tall, I came down from 265 pounds to 225. That includes falling off the wagon sometimes. It works completely.
I feel counting calories is good for SOME people when losing trying to lose weight. People that have some mental illnesses or something similar I don’t recommend counting calories because there is a chance of developing an eating disorder which in the long run is terrible. Instead focus on changing what you eat daily from an unhealthy and sugary, and fatty foods to a more balanced and overall healthier diet along with some exercise.
They need to quit telling people to stop counting calories. He’s basically still saying count calories. All of these diets count calories so you may as well just count calories and exercise to get down to your ideal weight just like they said a long time ago… If you go back up more than 5 lbs or so, count them again.
Lost 130 pounds counting calories. You automatically eat healthier because you have to survive all day with a limited amount of calories so you need more bang for your buck.
Love your videos!!! Your mindset is golden and you are sooo real with us. I love u!!!!!
Hey Jillian, can you please tell us whats your take on Intermittent fasting?
wow i got so emotional watching this. i can relate to working extra hard to losing weight. you inspire me girl. thanks for sharing this
And how many meals are you supposed have a day? I use a small plate 23 cm. I’m pretty overweight
Georgie you’re so amazing!
You should start linking your outfits because everything you wear is so cute! ��
I reduced my calories and I lost 10kg so what he is saying isn’t exactly true
Is it just me or is that plate an optical illusion? Doesn’t it look upside down? If I look at it, long enough I can see it right.
No one said the calories of kale and brownies are the same. The perso that said that is stupid yes not all calories are good, we should know that. But NOT counting calories does not work for everyone
The thermogenic effect of food is the bottom line. This depends on what is consumed. If it is composed of lipids, protein or carbohydrates. These basic building blocks all require different energy expenditure by the body to be absorbed. Proteins requires the most energy for break down, with carbohydrates and lipids coming in at 2 and 3. In the end it is calories in and calories out, energy expenditure subtracted by total calories consumed is final. Its physics.
This is why you’re supposed to eat a high protein diet and resistance train while keeping your deficit as small as possible, thats how you preserve your metabolic rate and limit the amount it reduces by.
You mentioned that you could potentially notice the difference after a week of proper diet. If someone isn’t starting needing to lose weight, but needs to build muscle mass, how long should that person stick to one style of this diet without seeing results before trying another? (Presuming the food types and workouts are properly done/controlled)
I have a question…. My husband and i are trying to lose weight. He has a chronic paim comditiom that prevents him from being active. Right now all he can do physically is walk for maybe 40 min a day and anu other mobility he reserves gor thimgs he needs to do i.e: taling care of a dog and kids. Are there any safe excersises so!eone with chronic pain can do to help weight loss without triggering a attack?
Calories in, calories out does not work. Look at those people that participated in the biggest loser, their weight came back. As per Dr. Fung “You can exercise all you want but you cannot exercise your liver”.
It’s a lot easier to stick to your diet plan when you know that you can have cheat meal twice a week without ruining your progress. Guys from NextLevelDiet are doing a great job. Visit their website and see for yourself.
Basically it’s better to eat lots of healthy calories than less bad calories
I didn’t bother to watch the video. The comment section is more helpful though ��
I count calories, 71 pounds lost in 10 months. I keep it simple, 2 pounds a week. Best diet I have ever been on and I don’t have to deprive myself of my favorite food, just eat them in moderation and make sure they fit into my daily calorie limit. Everyone doesn’t want to be on diets where you can’t eat fruit, bread, rice, etc. Do what works for you! Are people not supposed to try to lose weight because calorie counting is being called stupid?? If it works for them, let them live!
Counting calories is fine. Obsessing over calories is the problem many have. Like count them in a manner that’s accurate to the 100s….but don’t sit there and obsess over if you added one more clove of garlic or a teaspoon more of coffee creamer that you should be counting. There are also many things that aren’t even necessary to count. Along with the more commonly known things like celery etc that people say don’t matter, I also wouldn’t count any greens or whole foods below 20 calories.
Counting calories is a great way to curb overeating initially, resulting in some weight loss initially. If you continue to monitor calories for what your BMR at your goal weight would be, continue exercise, reduce the calories that come from carbs, and switch calories to more nutrient dense calories while remaining in the range you wantyou will see an improvement in steady consistent weight loss. Also, allowing for fasting, meaning eating certain time periods of the day will help in regulating insulin
Who is watching looking for ways to get rid of the quarantine food baby?
The truth is that the only way people could lose weight in a sustainable way and keep the weight off for good was by counting calories and then maintaing the same diet. No one can overcome termodynamics: calories in vs calories out.
What if I count calories AND eat healthy, unprocessed foods? The way I see it, when I reach my target weight, I won’t go back to eating bad, processed foods like I used to, I will simply keep eating the same thing except a little bit more since I won’t be aiming to lose but simply not gain. Does that make any sense? I’m genuinely curious. I am counting calories because it gives me a feeling of being in control, whereas if I was not, I could overeat calories, even with good foods! So far, it is working great and I have not have any cravings nor am I hungry and I believe, perhaps falsely so, that it is because I eat good foods. Thoughts? Any help appreciated!!!
Er a calorie is a calorie. Different foods have different nutrient breakdowns but it is still a calorie from a measurement point of view!!
I love rules of thumb. Simplifying the progress definitely helps with sticking to it.
Strange that fats have no place on your plate. Definitely makes it harder to feel
full for a mostly vegan / vegetarian diet.
The BMR is for calculating the calories are to eat to maintain weight correct? Also, if im exercising (im running) for 30 min a day would i kinda be between 2 & 3 on the active level since im not quite a training but more active thsn someone whos say on their feet all day in clothing store (your example)?
Hey you guys! Sorry I’ve been MIA this month I’ve been putting this together for you! Haha, seriously:) This is a longer video, but I really hope that it can be helpful to you if you have been struggling with calories, and getting obsessive with counting calories, or have been feeling frustrated about losing weight. There is no such thing as a “weight loss secret” (unfortunately, lol) BUT this is the closest thing (that has helped me such a great deal)! You guys have asked me so many times to talk about my point system eating plan so here it is “Liezl Jayne’s Point System”!! Give the entire video a good watch because even though it’s long, I wanted to explain it to you as clearly as possible so that you could all understand. And I feel like if you spend 30 minutes watching it fully then you should understand. I hope so! Love you all and I hope this helps! XOXOXOXO
YOU LITERALLY SAVED ME FROM COUNTING CALORIES ����❤❤❤❤❤
OMG LOVE YOUUUU
This video is so annoying because she struggles to make a single sentence without a jump cut.
Welp I’m starting this method tmrw I’ll see if I can keep motivated because I used to workout everyday and eat rlly healthy and I was obsessed with eating healthy but I hit a wall and stopped working out and lost my abs ate after 7 o clock again and ate cake cookies and Ice cream again and even tho I’m still skinny I wish I was toned again and was the best version of myself
this guy just added more confusing information to the already insane contradicting nutritional info out there. and to make it worse, he didn’t even give any helpful advice or alternatives. he just said counting calories doesn’t work, and left it at that. this video is bad.
Am I the only one in the world who wants to gain some wait to not look like a stick figure?
What bring me to tears when I try to lose weight is my drinks (and not talking about alcohol). They let the calories add up so quickly and then it’s just tea and coffee, not even my breakfast, lunch, dinner or snacks, so what must one drink, only water or black tea and black coffee. I try to stick with 3 cups of coffee with milk a day and water in between, but with frothed milk it’s about 120 150 calories depending on the size of coffee. So what do other people do? Please give advice, how do you tackle a day without caffeine. Do you only drink a coffee in the morning and water during the day or drink them black or don’t drink coffee or tea at all. Goodness me, what do I have to be exited then about if I can not sit and enjoy a coffee on a cold day or after a hard days work in front of the telly and I coffee to open my eyes is a must. Now I eat only a fruit for lunch with a coffee, because there is not enough calories for breakfast with a coffee, normal lunch and a coffee and dinner with a coffee. As something must give way and that is now lunch. Can’t believe that 1200 calories can be used up do easily. If it isn’t enough giving up cake and tarts, now the coffee seems to go as well.
This is an old video but what bread is the banana toast bread?
I’m 2 yrs too late but this is really amazing!! I have been binge watching yr vids. Gonna go get yr book and have it printed
I think this is brilliant and makes calorie counting more doable. Ty
Does Custokebon Secrets (google it) help me lost crazy amounts of fat? I see many people keep on talking about this popular weight loss diet plan.
“10 chicken breasts not appetizing”
Me chowing down on chicken and beef diet and feeling good everyday for months
Loved your advice! Your video was very helpful to me. I bought your book because I’m intrigued! I want to learn more of your smart hacks. Thanks for the tip!
I’m starting a grad job next week and you are giving me so much hope in maintaining my healthy lifestyle woooo! Thanks Georgie:)
Love your channel so much Georgie! Been a subscriber from some time now and I am so happy for you with your growth in happiness, love for your body image, and that your body is back to normal!
Title is misleading. Hes trying to explain macronutrients but he keeps calling everything calories. Too simplified. He also didnt mention how exercise is another big factor in weight management
But isn’t cutting carbs essentially caloric restriction (aka dieting)? Also, isn’t glucose (derived from whole foods, like fruit) our body’s preferred fuel source?
For some reason, its always the individuals who promote intermittent fasting, keto, or low carb that have a problem with the calories in vs calories out model. There is no debate with this, regardless of what you eat or when you eat, you NEED a caloric deficit to lose weight. The concept he mentions regarding your metabolic rate slowing down when you reduce calories does happen, but not to the extent in which in stops you from losing weight. When you’re on a deficit, it is strongly advised that you keep your calories as HIGH AS POSSIBLE while maintaining a deficit and eating a high protein diet with resistance training. Those in combination will in fact preserve your metabollic rate.
This is a good video with some good information BUT, I don’t care for how she puts everyone in the same spectrum. Like when she says that when you count calories you basically only eat packaged or processed foods because its easier to keep up with your calorie intake. Maybe true for SOME but not many. The statement was also correct about your body being smart and being able to adapt therefore you won’t lose weight anymore. There are several ways to combat that like carb cycling, increasing your calorie intake to maintenance levels or slightly higher for a week. Its just the same with working oit which wasn’t mentioned at all. When you work out your body will get used to the same exercises over and over. So those exercises won’t have as much affect as it did initially. So you change up your exercises to shock the body. Muscle memory is real but there are ways to combat it. Bottomline, you can lose weight with or without counting calories. For people who are dedicated and disciplined there is nothing wrong with counting calories. Everyone who counts calories don’t just eat packaged foods and processed foods. I would like to see another video where she shows the positives and negatives of calorie counting with out bias. And adds in the many other factors like eating healthy while counting calories, working out while counting calories, and how to avoid plateaus while calorie counting. Cause of all that can be done. Instead of misleading people who probably have done no research for themselves.
“science backed means” and “Holistic methods” do not belong together. Your BMR reduces as your body mass reduces…that’s physics. If you do not reduce your calories as you lose weight… you stop losing weight. It’s not confusing to think that a body at 200lbs uses less energy than a body at 250lbs.
Obviously your content is not for me, but some of your ideals you’re preaching will hurt people. You claim to be science based but your oversimplification of some of these topics is insane. Counting calories is very much a useful tool, not just to hit a number. Its useful to make people think about what they are eating and how much. Claiming it will cause you to GAIN weight with 0 evidence while citing “science” as one of your driving ideals is disingenuous. Counting Calories is a tool anyone who is counting calories without paying any attention to macro nutrients is using the tool wrong.
If you’re 300lbs who lives on twinkies, yes reducing your twinkie calories will see a short term loss of weight, calories in = calories out. However it does NOTHING for the obvious food addiction and malnutrition that the person is obviously suffering. Which is why the weight comes back. You can find sources all over the internet that explain this in great detail. Legitimate ones… that actually show the studies and science behind their information.
The biggest loser contestants did indeed gain their weight back, because they were put on nearly life threatening diets with nearly life threatening amounts of exercise. They were monitored daily by doctors to make sure they didn’t drop dead or have a cardiac crisis. Their hormones were destroyed and they were given absolutely no support or training for what to do after the show was over. You can find interviews with contestants who explain exactly how they ended up gaining the weight back, its not a mystery.
So far as I can tell this channel just wants to copy the nonsense of the Thomas Delauer variety. Spin information to suit their needs and look pretty for the camera. “follow my fad because it worked for me but I can’t be bothered to properly explain homeostasis and how it affects weight loss”.
Judging by your engagement your audience has already figured this all out though.
What is Custokebon Secrets? We’ve noticed several awesome things about this popular weight loss diet plan.
can you show how much is a 1 point of healthy bolognese sauce and what would that look like in a meal, its hard to count when you have many small ingredients involved
It would have been better if I found out this “Yamzoko Weebly” (Google it) a couple of years back. I reduced 12 lbs in 3 weeks so far. There is certainly still need of workouts even just a couple of times a week and also the foods to eat must be best. It showed awesome results for me. I surely advise the product, wish it works as excellent for you mainly because it does for me..

Its about how fast food can move thru your alimentary canal..simple…
I’m 50/50 with him yes counting calories is a bit overkill but you HAVE TO be in a calorie deficit to lose weight
calories in calories out are 100% proven by science. Don’t be a science denier.
Wow! This video is so informative and helpful. Thank you very much
Guys. lost a lot of weight does not need to be hard (I used to think it did). I’m going to give you some tips now. Look for a popular weight loss secrets called Custokebon Secrets (do a search on google). Thanks to it I’ve lost a ton of weight. I shouldn’t even be speaking about it cause I do not want a lot of other guys out there running the same game but whatever. I am just simply in a great mood today so I’ll share the wealth lol.
I’m overweight and been losing fast on 900-1100 calories a day. Your thumbnail is not correct for everyone. 1200 calories a day slows my weight loss
This makes so much sense and make things so easy for me. Thank you so much!
So, as someone who has a hard time eating too much or can’t help but eat what I’m craving, if I don’t count my calories I have a hard time controlling how much I eat. So what do I do if counting doesn’t work? I’ve lost weight with counting calories before.
Thank god you’re telling me it doesn’t work after I lost 17 kg. Bruh, cool commercial and all, but don’t say stupid shit. Present it as an alternative next time, that takes less discipline, not by shitting on something that also works.
My pleasure to use “Yamzoko Weebly” (Google it) fat loss plan is at all time high. My eating routine and my consistency of few workouts was not altered as well as change. In merely a short time of 30 days, I already lost 6 lbs. The strategy has allow me to consumed lesser and getting full is faster..
Wow this video has been very helpful for me. I just started counting calories and I’m finding it very annoying already. This system breaks it down to be manageable and healthy. Thank you very much!
this is the most important video in the world this should be in school for everybody to learn THANK YOU your videos are so helpful
Man, I’ve been counting calories and have lost 90 pounds so far. I’m glad I watched this video so I could know what I was doing wrong!
Omg you hit it right on the head I’ve been going crazy, everything is a number!
if i need say 2000 calories to maintain my weight, and im on a 500 deficit, after eating the 1500 calories that day do i also need to take into account the activity i did that day like say i burned 600 calories, do i need to get that 600 calories back in food to make sure i am at 1500 no matter what?
I just started counting calories but I see and feel that its not the right way for me,It’s already making me feel so bad and I don’t want my life to revolve around numbers so thank you for this video
Download (calorie munch out) app on apple device is good to keep track of calories on the whole family
I am doing points too. Thr old Weight Watchers points system. Still counting, still complicated when you think about it.
I really needed this video. For a year I have been counting calories and exercising all the time and it has affected me in such a bad way. I got anxiety whenever I was invited to eat out, because I didn’t know the amount of calories in the food and all I had in my head was numbers and macros. My whole life was planned around food, and I cried my self to sleep every night because it was stressing me out so much. I pretty much had no social life, because I would avoid anything where food was in included. I would stick to 900-1200 calories for a week or two and then just eating one wrong thing and telling myself I messed up so I might as well eat everything unhealthy I can find, and then I ended up binging. This was an ongoing cycle for a long time. After watching this video yesterday I realised a lot of things. I deleted my life sum app, and decided to start intuitaive eating. It is my first day and I’ve just had breakfast and it was so hard not counting the calories, but I will push myself because I want to live and healthy lifestyle. Physically and mentally. And yes the couple of pounds I would like to lose may take a little longer now that I am not counting calories, and maybe I will lose them quick I don’t know but that isn’t my first priority now. My happiness is. I have a long road ahead of me but I am not giving up. Thank you so much for this video this was just what I needed to hear. You are such an inspiration ❤️
I honestly love your honesty, some times we might feel alone on the hardship of our journeys. I was born with diabetes so from my toddler years I was worried about my weight and how I was always bigger (taller and fatter) than other girls, I would workout to unhealthy levels and under eat. Now I focus on the quality of my calories, not the quantity. It was a long journey but I do believe that you start getting results as soon as you focus on health and not on the numbers
Was on a roll, lost a stone with your app and looked and felt good, in jan I stopped (no excuse but there are factors that meant I wasn’t motivated to
Continue) and now double gained the weight and feel lost and sad:(
Do u know about glycerol neogenesis? When ur body is adapted to fat deeper and more efficient in utilizing fat? Ur body will easily storing excess fat to body fat… from there you need to count calories
It’s not wrong but only calorie is just not enough for losing weight. The factor is also the carb, protein, fat inside food.
How do I fiqure out how many calories per day I should be eating in order to lose weight?
I am 60 yrs. old
5’4″ tall
Please help me…��
Your recipes though…always look delish! Keep up the great work!
I started doing this three days ago and I already lost 1 kg! I’m gonna keep doing this with some exercise and update
I had lost about 60 lbs back in high school doing a fruitarian style diet. That was even despite the fact I was eating about 600-700 more calories a day. Never had so much energy in my life.
I eat very healthy and still count calories. The point is you should still count calories no matter what you’re eating. (fried is still a no no)
i LOVE ur accent its so cute and delicate.
what kind of accent is it?
You can’t out exercise a bad diet. A few seconds on the lips, lifetime on the hips. It is much easier to eat less than to burn the calories overconsumed.
I’m trying to lose weight but I love to count calories in everything. It’s a habit now. Even 3grams of blueberries is put down into my book.
You are a treasure!!!! Thank you so much for this video! It’s so clear and motivating!
Skiny and normal people dont care about calories,is a meaningless number
So glad I stumbled on this video. I have been using myfitnesspal on and off for the better part of this year and it has often been frustrating always counting calories. I love this idea of points system i.e portion sizes of 100 calories each breaking down into 4 pts per meal. I’ll keep you posted.
Love this video. You look amazing. Where are your leggings from I need them:)
Does Custokebon Secrets really help to lost lots of fat? I’ve learn many good stuff about this popular lose weight methods.
just walking for 1 or 2 hours can make u lose properly couple ponds you dont have to count calories. skinny is not always perfect, blonde is not always pretty, pretty eyes are not always cute, you are you and you dont have to change your beautiful self for any else unless its about health..
Damn I love you! I came to the same conclusion myself after having done my own studies on human anatomy and physiology, and studying how calories actually work. The only thing I would add is that to work out more efficiently it’s good to know how many calories you burn with a particular routine, which you can figure out by looking up how many calories you burn with each particular exercise.
I have always thought that dieting is eating only green vegetables and drinking water. NextLevelDeit proved me wrong. I am eating delicious and nutritionally rich food and still reaching my fitness goals.
Ahh love it Georgie!! please do a current abs and butt workout!! �� xo
Love how you always say it how it is Jillian. Great advice as always
200 ml of almond milk is 26 calories where do you get 1 point????? For 100 calories you need 800 ml of almond milk. Unless you are using sweetened almond milk which I doubt that woolies does and sweetened almond milk is not healthy. Very misguided and not a nutritionist at all…
So how is it unrealistic to reach 1200 cal a day if your doing a calorie deficit?

I’ve lost about 17 pounds of my fat after I made use of this kind of “Yamzoko Weebly” diet plan (Google it).It’s miraculous to get a possible outcome out of this. This diet plan gives good results really quick and I love it. There is a huge distinction in the manner that my very own garments fit and a perfect side-by-side pics of a Six day difference!
You can also mention compensating for the muscle loss from low-calorie diets. (Also, please see my other comment from today about my weight loss progress success.)
It does not make sense! If you increase the number of calories you are burning then it will have an effect?
It actually is as simple as calories in and calories out but remember you gotta work hard in the gym
Cheers Sir.. am still in the process to understand the real and most honest relationship between food & exercise, still learning..but i realized many not aware..love & peace from malaisie..land far away.. howaever i have some questions if dont mind..so does that means 90% is food and 10% only exercise to reduce weight & how about belly story? why is it so difficult to see results to reduce belly fats & sincerely which what could i do the easiest way and yes without being a slave to the process for above 45s or 50s age? (i like this reminder really do..many of us are slaves now to soc med & hi techs stuffs already hehehe..no more rel connections & feel)..hehe.
Man!! The way you are explaining everything ���� wow! Love it.
1:29 “You don’t have to draw this guys.” Me already drawing on my plate with a red sharpie: “Damn it.”
Yeah don’t count calories to make sure you’re in a DEFICIT..no that doesn’t make sense…wow just goes to show that just because you have some degree, does not necessarily mean you’re intelligent…
Thank you! I’m really benefiting from all of your advice and I’m SO grateful!
Would you speak to post menopausal weight gain and metabolism?
I had an early menopause after the removal of my reproductive system at 36. Now at 48, I have developed hypothyroidism as well and really need to struggle to control my weight.
Any insight is welcomed
I feel like I’m going crazy. I always count calories and I’m just so tired of it and I get so sad abt it. I want to go back to the time I didn’t think abt all this.
so happy for you!! I’m the same I really have to work to look better and stack on weight easy. loved this video and I’m really excited to see that recipe for those brownies!! yum xx
Everything that you said just motivated me to a another level:) I just love you jillian, I really love your spirit. Thanks for existing ❤️ You’re a good person ( I know i’m too much loll ) but I hope you read my message.
when having 3 meals per day ( 4 points for each) how many snacks per day? to lose weight.
Love this! Going to try it! Makes so much sense, thank you!
I’m 49 and I’ve never had such a hard time losing weight! I have less energy and everything I eat just sticks to me! I’m 5’4” and 159. Last year I was 125-135 lbs. always been a gym rat! Now I have no energy or motivation, HELP PLEASE.
Subscribed! I hate counting calories with a passion and have lost zero weight with my fitness pal. After watching this I’ve realised it’s probably due to the fact I’m eating low calorie but so much carbs. I only have 5 kg to lose but it’s so hard. This sounds super simple and I can still have my little pasta portion in the corner of my plate
The best part of this video is Lester Holt being forced to beg for likes and subscribes at the end
i done keto, carnivore, vegan and traditional diet. The best i done for Healing for every issue (skin, mental health and digestion) and fatloss is fasting focused Lifestyle.
Would love to hear about functional foods! Loving watching your videos, just found your YouTube this week and finishing it so interesting and helpful ��
Ohhhhh, but I think this might be my most favorite video ever, EVER! You explain things so simply yet cleverly… I loved all your meal and snack ideas! I purchased your bundle and it looks amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge ����������.
how did you stop? right now i’m pretty deep in counting calories to the point where i’ve become obsessed, and feel really guilty when i go over my daily goal:/ i really want to intuitively eat, please let me know the steps i can take to do this! thank u so much for making this omg
What do you think about carb cycling And whether or not it will make it easier to lose fat?
What bugs me about this video is that he didn’t provide any solutions. He just threw a wrench in everybody’s plan and made a whole bunch of people uncomfortable. I say odds are in you are eating at or below your daily calorie intake and regularly exercising you will probably lose weight. Seems to work for most people.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!! Yessssss…. I am losing weight through a serious lifestyle shift exercising and eating well without counting calories AT ALL! This has always been my philosophy. I am eating more now than I was at my heaviest AND I am losing weight. I am handling stress a lot better, enjoying life, and I’ve never been this happy. Just to illustrate what I mean: I went from obese class 1 to overweight WITHOUT COUNTING CALORIES and life is so good.
Definitely subscribed sis! Thank you! I love nutritionist with sound, beautiful, life-changing advice
Where Eran Segal compared a diet of someone who gains weight from consuming 2000 and the other person loses weight while consuming 2500 notice how he didn’t include height, weight, age, gender, or activity level. Segal is full of shit someone who is 5’0″ and weighs 95lbs and lives a sedentary lifestyle will need less calories than someone like LeBron James who is 6’8″ weighs 250lbs and is a professional athlete, people like LeBron will lose weight if they ate only 2500 calories a day. PEOPLE DON’T LISTEN TO THIS IF YOU ARE TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT EREN SEGAL IS FULL OF SHIT.
You do realize that people count calories and are able to predict their exact rate of weight loss or gain based on the amount they eat, right? You really aren’t very bright, are you? Do you realize that you argue that a strong insulin response causes people to drop dead? Or is that beyond the scope of your “science”? You are trying to mystify a topic that is already solved.
Don’t you mean if you take in less calories than your body needs in a day. your body will start burning or using stored fat that was on your body for energy. Well, After your body finished using up the calories from the food you ate, over an amount of time.
What do you do with packaged food if it’s like 130 calories or 270?
Or you could just do keto and lose weight and never count calories and be in the best shape of your life effortlessly
This worries me. I lost 30lbs eating exactly what i already have been just by eating less. I didn’t drastically change my diet because it doesn’t make sense. You cant eat like that forever. Plus i wouldn’t want to (I’m 5’11, 180lbs)
Altetnate day fasting works great for me. No calorie cou ting necessary. No exercise necessary either.
It seems like you would be starving if you only ate 1400 calories and burned 2100 calories. I would eat 1500-1600 calories and workout for 20 minutes 3 or 4 times a week. I eat mainly vegan so high fiber foods that keep me full.
You should educate yourself better on Keto…please consult doctors who are more educated on the subject.
What if it’s calories in and out plus hormones?? Why can’t you eat the same amount of calories in an 8 hour window as you would a whole day? I have found that when I intermittent fast I lose weight better.
Counting calories isn’t sustainable long term. Cavemen didn’t count calories.
I honestly feel like this kind of thing makes it harder for people to get to grips with their nutrition. If you expend more than you consume, while maintaining the same levels of activity, you will lose weight. You can’t just magically gain energy from nowhere, regardless of your insulin levels. Can better controlling your insulin levels though your diet aid the wight loss process? Absolutely. But that is secondary to reducing your consumption. Bottom line is that you cannot get something from nothing. There are people in this comments section thinking they’re literal perpetual motion machines.
This is the best explanation on the internet. I love Jillian
Been counting calories 2 months now, with very little exercise after knee replacement surgery. Losing about a pound a week. ��

Love this video and so many more. Ill be starting this from tomorrow on wards:)
Fasting LITERALLY puts you at a caloric deficit, but ALSO keeps your insulin levels low which allows you to burn fat easier and faster. Counting calories work, but it’s like a steam engine and fasting is like a gasoline engine.
New to your channel but really enjoying it! What hummus are you buying where a 1/4 cup is only 100 calories??
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
It all comes back. Keto is the only way to go. I am satisfied and not hungry. Add intermittent fasting and even more weight comes off. I don’t count calories. Got off my meds and diseases are disappearing. All my friends on weight watchers have had their weight come back. How many people on biggest losers have kept their weight off?
1:12 Am I the only one that noticed the police/ambulance siren? XDDD
