Having a written record of your food choices will help you identify eating patterns that might be sabotaging your weight loss. Review your food journal at the end of each week.

As expert, I believe Custokebon Secrets is actually good way to lost a ton of weight. Why don’t you give it a shot? perhaps it can work for you too.
You look like a different person. Even your presentation is amazing. Excellent. And thank you for all you do for us.
That the “% of people who were sufficiently active increased” at the same time that the % of obese increased does not imply they were largely the same people. I’m not pointing that to counter the notion that “exercise is not the key”, the logic just seems faulty to me. You could even have a considerable overlap in these groups, and they would be somewhat healthier than if they were just obese.
if diet and exercise have no impact on weight, how do people get fat in the first place?
Great video! I learned so much just from this video than all my monthly visits combined with my KP provider Dr. Wish my provider wasn’t as lazy or trying to rush us out every visit. btw, we never knew there’s a weight gain chart as mentioned from the video.
I think there is not a better speaker on psychological health than Dr. Ramani. A true master of her profession, she is so intelligent and speaks with such eloquence in a way that is understandable to anyone. This was a great talk by her and she delivers some information that goes beyond eating. Excellent.
As I am eating McDonalds that also forgot to give me my buffalo sauce… hmmm… I guess I should go back to making eggs! Thanks for the info!
Dr.Ramani you look so well balanced. I am so happy for you. I will be buying your book I am in a transition point in my life as well. I am trying to to get back to my independent self. The woman I was before I married a Narc who brought a stepson Narc and his birth mother into my peace filled life. Also I will be getting a dog as now my daughter is 34 Very balanced And my stepson is still living in his mothers basement and blaming everyone for his chaos also he is now diagnosed as Psychopathic with boarderline personality disorder. He is someone I never want to see again. I will be closing on a home 6/26/2020 my Independence Day
This is the video that made me realize you shouldn’t feel a little sick from eating so much after each meal
Eat to live. Don’t live to eat❣️��������☀️�� Picky eating is the first step to loosing weight. I’ve done it with success. I wish the reversal
I’m grateful you’re in the world doing this. For me, you’ve been a very freeing person to listen to. Thank you! ��
That’s what my mother used to tell me and my brother. ‘Clean your plate. Children are starving in India’
My father was given food instead of apologies as a love substitute..develped comfort eating and obesity..I inherited a weird relationship with food surprised?Old vid but timely for men
But what if you don’t have any appetite? I ate more when I wasn’t pregnant. I wish i could eat but its so hard…
I think the little girl who has been picky on when and what she eats sounds like Autism. That is not a bad word. She is different and that is okay.
I’m only 18 minutes in…I have always loved you Dr Ramani but wow a whole new level of love and respect! So grateful to have found your work/channel!
But what about the fact that the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn in general? Is that a myth?
I like her and what she has to say but do we have to spend time talking about “kids”? I don’t care about how these women feed their kids. I am interested in an adult view of food and how to relate to food now that I am an adult. Discuss weight loss for adults whose parents might have made mistakes when they were growing up, please.
If you want to lose weight fast then watch this great video here: HootFat. com
Love this woman’s videos and talks. But stumbled upon this only today though. I didn’t know she had a weight loss story… she seems to have gained a lot of weight now. Wondering what happened…
I agree that exercise doesnt really help you lose weight
But when I exercise I notice that I’m more likely to eat healthy then when I dont exercise
So I think it helps a bit in that sense (like helps u stay mentally focussed on wanting to be healthy)
A friend told me to look for for the diet plan “sowo hope site” on Google. It is the greatest weight loss program I’ve ever before seen and gives immediate results to users. I’ve already decreased 13 lbs in less than the first week.
can you do a video on how too much exercise is counter-productive in regards to health
Cravings are created, not by you but by our culture. You are responsible to understand how they want you to eat carbs and you are determined to eat fruits and vegatables along with a healthy source of protein. Beans and nuts are a great alternative source of protein which allows you to eat less while still obtaining protein and your digestive tract will thank you. Meat protein is hard on your system so its always good to give it a rest. And yes you need to at least walk. Exercise is a requirement. Please.
Sound too low. Cannot make out what you are saying.. Wish I could hear this…
I just found this video today although it was posted in 2013. Strangely if you watch her recent videos she seems to have put on a lot of weight. I hope she is ok.
Gosh…… why just not get small portions to begin with then push the plate away! Its not rocket science go back and get more if you’re still hungry. Plate sizes is what matters.
Never do we hear the psychology behind what to eat! I love this! Thanks so much for the information and I plan to use it. Amazing!
So true stayed in marriage for his kids more than myself, and in the end when he was done, so were they.����♀️. Never set yourself on fire to keep someone else warm.
Mann loving hearing another area of life from your talks.
This is scary. We were not told stories in youth. Lotsa food yes. But no stores.
Thank you for your work.
She must be short if she was 200 and lost 85 that makes her 115 now. That’s how much I weigh and m 5’1.
Seeing her talk about her diet and eating habits.. man. It really never gets easier ��
The root cause of weight gain or overweight is stress. Stress causes huge changes in ones metabolism and causes an higher demand for sugar.
“You made me walk through fire asshole! We’re done!” That’s awesome LOL
The problem is that the American diet has low satiety per calorie, so exercise causes increased hunger meaning more calories eaten. Also America measures standard of living in terms of gdp per capita so making people fat then selling them drugs to fix it is better than a good diet. Look at youtube for the blue zones (5 places where people live to 100, and copy their diet)
Cooking is time consuming, so I suggest:
* Microwave tubers (sweet potato, potato, etc…), but put potatoes in the fridge before eating them. Putting potatoes in the fridge makes it more difficult to digest the potato so its less likely to spike your sugar.
* Eat more popcorn without butter
* Eat beans from cans
* Get an electric pressure cooker and cook lots and lots of beans and store them in the fridge and freezer for the long term
* Get a hot water dispenser and go crazy with teas, hot cocoa, and black coffee (learn to drink without milk) these reduce hunger
* Peppermint reduces hunger
* Use half as much sweetener (it can increase hunger in the long term)
* Drink diluted vinegar
* Eat unsweetened yogurt as its bacteria eats sugar
* Go crazy with spices especially tumeric, cinnamon, chili, black pepper, ginger, lemon
* Eat a little bit of a bad tasting food like grapefruit every day, after 2 weeks it won’t taste as bad (in fact might taste good)!
Well fuck, looks like the most important thing I have to exercise is self control…
But seriously, I don’t have my teenage metabolism anymore, time to be responsible…
I don’t think the advice to simply make your diet gradually healthier can affect weight more than excercise. I wasn’t drinking any sodas, ate mostly home made food, yet my weight was increasing. For the past half a year I’ve managed to reduce my weight by time restricting my eating. But keeping this regime is not easy at times I feel like I’m starving. I think video did not stress enough that losing weight by dieting requires your calorie intake to be on discomfortabily low level.
I am watching this in September 2019 and she has gained weight again.
Look. If you’ve ever gone a day or more without food, you put in calories when you can. Diet plans are sort of a luxury.
She’s great, but 6 years down, she has definitely gained lot of that weight back. Maybe these techniques are a bit too hackish.
Why do I know so many overweight people who eat less than 2,000 calories?
off topic her face cutting, eyes and expressions are very similar Claire Dunphy in ‘Modern Family’. (Less hyper obviously)
I want to read your books. Dr. Ramani. My father did not have a weight problem and he never cleaned his plate.
Being called fat as a kid because I was the tallest in my class, so my clothing size number was greater, impacted my entire adulthood.
Size 9 dress at 5’ 11’ is NOT fat, but after a few good years, when the guys hit their growth spurt and I wasn’t the tallest anymore, and only in high school & university, I eventually succumbed to the belief that I was fat and became fat and am still fat 20 years later, although I eat healthier than most people I know. Parents can be so cruel and the effects are long lasting and hard to shed.
Never mind being raised by a covert narc mother, then marrying one, which is why I ended up at this video in the first place.
She has so much to share that I can relate with!
This helps alot especially for those that are not mothers and want to become one soon
This video almost paints the picture that exercise is bad or that it won’t help you lose weight. You most definitely should exercise, but don’t expect it be enough to lose weight. Eating less will do that.
This video is great. I’ve unknowingly been following this guide (eat healthy, move more), and have found great results. Built muscle mass, shed a good amount of unnecessary weight (mostly fat). I also do have to credit the wake up call from my pediatrician, who found that I had brain cancer, as well as my team of PT, OT, and other therapists who pushed me while I was inpatient back in 2011-2013 in a good way to exercise, and eat right after I was discharged. What’s more is that, it really doesn’t take much to do this. I’m not one of those “gym rats” who virtually lives at the gym. I do body weight exercises, and just take a look at what I’m eating. Rocket science not necessary.
24:55 love the way you handled that situation! Great content Dr. Ramani.
I am from the clean plate club….sucks! I am older and still battle with finishing my plate!
I see moms giving the baby a bottle for anything. The baby wants to “talk” or has a reaction to something in the environment and they get a bottle in their mouth and automatically take it in.

This Dr is AMAZING!!!!
Personally, I think whether diet or exercise works better at maintaining/obtaining one’s desired weight depends on the individual.
I used to use exercise quite successfully to lose body fat, gain lean mass, or maintain my body composition, but after I had an accident that left me with chronic pain exercise has not been very accessible, and although now I am trying to use caloric intake I find it difficult limiting my consumption. I very much miss the days of long/hard bike rides, swims, and trail hikes/runs and validating that second teriyaki salmon burger for dinner or two pieces of guilt-free cheesecake for dessert!
I think your video should’ve also pointed out that many people who look at how many calories they burn during exercise are NOT evaluating that number properly; they really should subtract out how many calories they would’ve burned if they didn’t do that exercise!
I tried this diet program myself having seen how my colleague benefited from that. Initially I of course wanted to make this happen and I have dropped a grand total of 10lbs from the “sowo hope site” (Google it). I believe much better after trying this life-altering diet.
I absolutely loved this video. I learned a lot and it was a illuminating moment, to learn about mindfulness and about listening to no one but yourself and to learn that eating healthy and making healthy choices is not an easy task for other people as well. I kept thinking that maybe I struggle more with food and what I eat or don’t eat than other people, and maybe that’s not true.
I ran out of pop (I was drinking one Hansens Root Beer a day) and candy (stopped eating all sugar) and by eating minimally and doing stretching excercises the weight dropped off.
if you’re quoting Ramayana, you may as well quote the one who said: it’s better o do one’s swadhrma, than someone else’s dharma.
Now this woman is the wonder! Wow you are PRACTICAL, have a crush on your intellect..!
Love this very authentic, beautiful, intelligent woman. She’s great.
She is very chill about the obesity epidemic. There is no surprise that people who have years of bad habits, just going on a crush diet and can’t sustain it. It’s not about making obese people’s life easier, they gain weight because it’s easy. Fast food is easy, not moving is easy, giving up is easy.
My dream to meet Dr. Ramani and talk with her, she is an intelligent, kind and genuine person.
I super appreciate this woman’s perspectives & find them spot-on.
I do think that she may be missing that “Are you sure?” can be an effort to be more respectful in case someone is failing to give their self permission, in many social situations, but she’s right that it can be damaging in its effect.:-) i don’t say it from a mindless or pushy place, and it’s /definitely/ not because i distrust my friends’ instincts… it’s because i distrust their self-love.
Really informative information on exercise. I particularly love your use of data to support your position. One point, however, with respect to scientific validity concerning diet. You state at the end that people are more likely to succeed with gradual changes over time than with a drastic dietary change. The data doesn’t support that claim. If you look at the studies you see that rapid weight loss is the biggest predictor of overall initial weight loss and sustained weight loss over time. I was shocked by that as it went against everything I thought I knew. But that’s what the data shows. I think that we’ve seen so many fad diets without the appropriate macro and micro nutrient balance, that rapid fad diet results, which have led to immediate regain of the weight, has created a misconception of the positive long-term impact of rapid weight loss done with appropriate nutrition.
An absolute mind opener! I love this woman, she’s truly inspiring! Thank you so much for your insight!!
Sorry, but don’t agree. You start by letting us know that your cousins died of malnutrition and that there were people facing hunger in the streets where you were born. And, then you preach how one should not listen to stakeholders about not leaving food on the plate? So basically alone thru that statement you say go ahead and waste even though there are people that do not get one warm meal even a day!? Instead a better message might be don’t load your plate up in the first place. Don’t eat at a place that gives you an oversized crepe.
Just found your channel. I want to share ALL of your videos, but that’d mean taking pauses between videos….
if I was to do a self diagnosis, after been read the verdict, I would then ask what is normal anymore?, do we as a people have to put a label on everything, can we acknowledge our silly trends and stop them before they consume all of us with a justifiable reason to act out in the way we do all because of a diagnosis we don’t seem to fully understand.
Can I invite to challenge one of your fundamental bases on which diets are based?
The assumption is that the key to weight loss is calorific reduction. Yes, I have noted the multitude of studies you have mentioned showing the weight loss effects of various diets over time. But there may be other factors at work here eg maybe the psychological effect of participating in a diet study causes weight loss? Or some other overlooked factor?
I think it would be interesting if you could present some data comparing the average calorific consumption of residents of various countries and compare that to the rates of obesity in those countries. One would expect a clear consistent correlation. But is there and if some countries have results that contradict that can we explain why and learn something?
Like Dr. Durvasula but trying to listen at this volume is exhausting. I’ll try again on a third device another day, but it is counterproductive to record at a volume so inaccessible.
Hey arrange marriage is not like ‘just suck it up’kind of a thing,it’s beautiful in many ways doc��;)
Wow, I love the idea of making the food difficult or time-consuming to access and then doing the apple test and asking the FLABS questions. I was never overweight until I quit smoking in my later twenties but a babysitter I’d had at age 3 once wrote a poem about me and in the poem she wrote that when I was bored toddler, I wanted a cookie, so I’ve always known that I eat when bored. I would like to stop doing that. I will begin implementing those three techniques TODAY! Thank you!
It’s very difficult to hear but worth putting your face to the speaker. I love Dr. Ramani Durvasula. She’s so kind and courageous and vulnerable and authentic and brilliant. And she’s so pretty (with or without makeup) and a beautiful person! Thank you for following your instincts finally, Ramani, and following the path that led you to do this.
When you exercise you gain muscle which ways 3x more then fat overall health is far more important then your weight and a healthy life style will lead to fat loss for most people
“At the end of it they not gonna throw you a parade because you did everything they asked you to”
This video brings up some good points, but I do believe that the title can seem a bit misleading. If one were to go just by the title of the video, and did not watch it, the title would imply that exercise does not help weight loss. Nitpickiness at the title aside, I do agree that the key to weight loss is a healthy diet, but a healthy diet cannot work alone. As you mentioned in your previous video about the benefits of exercise, there is so much good that exercise can do for people. Sure, a healthy diet can help a person lose weight, but it is even better if it works with exercise. A person who wants the optimal amount of weight lost would find a balance between a healthy diet and a good exercise regimen. In addition, children are incredibly impressionable, so cutting gym class could lead to children believing that exercise is not important. I believe that is, in part, why Michelle Obama pushed exercise so much. If children are not taught the importance of exercise at a young age, they may be more likely to live a life where they do not exercise as much. While I have no studies to back this up, it is just a thought of mine, knowing how impressionable children can be. Back to the content of the video, diets can and are a big part of weight loss, but many people diet incorrectly. While this video is not specifically about dieting, many myths about dieting involve cutting how the caloric intake of a dieting person. However, dieting is not cutting caloric intake, it is about choosing the right foods to eat. Diets are about choosing to drink water instead of pop, choosing to have a salad instead of a baked potato. Dieting the proper way (that is to say, choosing the right things to eat instead of cutting caloric intake) combined with exercise would be the optimal weight loss regimen. A healthy diet to keep energy within the body, and exercise to help burn any excess calories or fat within the body.
Thank you Dr. Ramani, I continue to learn from you. Keep up the good work!
And low weight is not the key to look good or to be healthy. The opposite is true: Muscles provide many health benefits and look great. And to gain muscle mass you need to gain weight, not loose weight. In fact a trained person may have a high BMI, but is strong, healthy and looks great.
This is infuriating. Studies like these grossly over simplify the concept of fat loss. As a personal trainer for 10 years, I can attest that most people don’t understand their goals. When people want to lose weight, 100% of the time they want to look more compositionally appealing. The lack of understanding of muscle tone and fat percentage combined with skin quality and hair quality the proper macros, minerals, and micro nutrients, is profound. Nothing in the studies are new. It has always been easier to cut back on food then to work out. But the goal is never actually weight-loss, so this information is for no one. It is most definitely a better idea to gain 2/3 of your calorie deficit from exercise for any compositional or health goals. Sure, it looks a little bit like “mom said because”, when you put everything on exercise, but it’s hard enough to get people to exercise the way they should without giving them an arsenal of information that they’re only going to misinterpret.
When it comes to eating healthy, you must never fall victim to modern day fad diets. Extreme diet plans are a danger for your health, especially ones that seriously restrict your daily nutritional intake. Many of these fad diets work for a short time period and then the benefits decrease after a while. It is best to check out Custokebon Secrets on google as it isn’t just another fad diet where you starve yourself.
Has anyone tried Custokebon Secrets? (do a search on google) I have heard several amazing things about this popular lose weight secrets.
I can relate to this. I lost three stone by doing no exercise but I hardly ate a thing as I was in shock following my husband leaving me. I was reeling and lost my appetite. It was initially very hard but when the shock and depression lifted, I felt wonderful! It changed my views on the exercise/diet weight loss lie.
I know that people lose the weight but my thing is that how does your body get to burn those calories from years ago when your constantly eating food into your body on top of the fat you need to lose.im just wondering how it actually works because everybody says that the only way to lose that actual body fat on you is to exercise and burn off all those calories even exercising in a fasted state and that exercise targets body fat and burn it
So how do you actually burn off those Calories off your body? is it not through exercising I Understand that diet is important but if a person is overweight dont they have to physically burn the fat off them from the past. i just dont get it how do you get rid of your own stored fat from your past versus the calories now it seems to me that the body would just burn what your eating now and not the fat from years and years ago.
As someone who wants to lose 10 pounds purely just for vanity purposes but is also lazy and HATES exercising, I love the fact that exercise isn’t needed lol
one of your families.. how many families u got? u been gettin busy dr. carrol!!
exercise isn’t going to cut all of your weight that pretty fair to say. but it is helpful to do it. I mean nowadays you have people spends 2-5 or more hows on their phones and games. it really about a balance between your social life and your will to live healthier. also, why didn’t you touch on the obesity epidemic? 30% of the world is obese that number was far smaller 100 years ago, and i wonder why. people are lazy stop complaining about exercise get off twitter, facebook, instagram, and go live a better life.
Anyone tried the Custokebon Secrets? I have heard several unbelivable things about it and my work buddy lost a ton of weight with Custokebon Secrets (just search it on google).
I agree with most things in this video but I do have to admit, when I didn’t have a car and was forced to walk 3-5 miles a day, I didn’t gain weight, even if I splurged. Once I got a car, I put on the pounds quickly and didn’t make any changes in my diet before. Also when I worked in a mail room and delivered across a University campus, my app that showed me all the steps I took showed me I walked 5 miles a day on average. Never worried about my weight than either. Walking sure does works wonders.
Guys. lost a ton of weight does not need to be hard (I used to feel it did). I’m going to give you some advice now. Get a popular diet plan program called Fenoboci Diet Plan (look on google search engine). Thanks to it I have lost a ton of weight. I should not even be speaking about it cause I don’t want a lot of other guys out there running the same game but whatever. I’m just simply in a excellent mood today and so I’ll share the wealth haha.
This is so informative. You’ve explained it so well. Thanks so much!
A thin person to my obese brother: You need to eat less. Exercise dosent matter.
Ten minutes later my brother said he walked 13 miles moving furniture at work that day.
Thin person: No you didn’t, I don’t believe you.
It’s like, did you not just admit that you understand exercise dosent make you thin??? Why don’t you believe he gets a lot of exercise!
So true! You can’t outrun a bad diet. But the slowed metabolism that comes with diet is super annoying.
She can literally talk for hours and every single second of it is interesting and meaningful
What you said about Michelle Obama isn’t true. The majority of her campaign on children’s health deals with children’s consumption of healthier foods, you see her in gardens planting vegetables telling them to eat better, not join a gym. Do I have to mention the drastic changes made on what the schools have been allowed to serve kids for lunch and breakfast?
it all depends how much you are doing on each end of the spectrum.dope.
Idk why but I bulk FAST when I work out a lot. I’ve been working 45hrs/wk as a general laborer on a construction site, and I’m in the best shape of my life. I’ve never had a 6pack. I also don’t own a car so I walk 2mi each way to and from work. I eat far fewer calories than I burn, and I noticed a plateau.
The junk food industry has a strong lobby in the government.
Well… more food and more gym means more money for massive companies. Less food and no gym mean the everyday person is better off but the big businesses lose out
Exercice helps a better metabolism,it has mental effects too! if u eat balanced and healthy a variated exercise plan works for weight loss!!
“Research shows that the resting metabolic rate slows in all dieters, regardless of whether or not they exercise. This is why weight-loss that might seem easier when you start becomes more difficult over time”
I want to look for this research. I’m interested to see if participants gained any significant muscle mass as a result of the type of exercise they were doing. I’d also like to see if their was a difference in the resting metabolic rate was different for those who gained muscle mass and those who did not. Any links guys?
another great read,actually a classic to my way of thinking,is “the 3 faces of love” by Charles Hauck. Speaks directly to how people react to change and “countermoves” to restore status quo and how to overcome. There comes a point where we stop discussing and move to action “boycotting” and this is when others react. Unless you are Jesus, Gandhi or Mother Theresa,or the likes,no one respects the martyr(well maybe after they’re gone..lol)
Does this include both cardio a muscle building exercises? I mean does gaining muscle make a difference?
I would like to see in the future a diffentiation of aerobic and anaerobic exercise as they have drastically different effects on our bodies, especially with relation with our diet. Love your show keep it up.
In its most basic form (and it is more complex than this) simple math shows exercise doesn’t/can’t cause weight loss. Eat all the calories back that you exercised off and you will never lose a pound. Unfortunately, only the under consumption of calories from you TDEE does this. Exercise is good for health and can provide extra motivation to lose weight (nobody wants to give back those calories that you worked hard to take off) but as a direct method of weight loss it doesn’t work that way.
I couple gradual increase in activity with gradual improvement of diet with a lot of patience slathered over the top. It has taken me 10 years but I am in the best shape of my life and I am going to be 47 this year. My overall next goal: to be in the best shape of my life when I turn 65. If you are patient and make changes on both diet and activity gradually over time, it isn’t that hard (not easy though). Where I think most people screw up is they want the change and they want it now. That’s very hard and most of the time backfires.
4:26 Is she asking for sliced fingertips? Because that’s how you get sliced fingertips.
Heaven’s sake, people, learn the Claw!
What about exercises that cause a change in you’re metabolic rate
Wow. No extra calories in the first semester and only 300 a day after? I don’t think most people realize that.
This isn’t true. If someone is exercising to increase muscle mass, their metabolism will increase. It takes longer, because there’s a building phase. After, it’s obviously the only way to lose actual fat while increasing ability to burn those calories. This is the best way to lose and keep weight off if done properly.
It would be a waste for you not to get rid of body fat while other normal people are capable to slim down quickly using Custokebon Secrets (google search it).
Cooking your own healthful meals from scratch does wonders for weightloss. My lady is on the AIP (very strict version of Paleo) Diet for a medical condition, and lost a lot of weight in a shorter time than she ever has by exerciseing by itself. It works damn well, but there is a plateu in weightloss. We’re looking into diet-compliant ways to boost her metabolism again.
A lot of good info here but a lot is wishy-washy also. We should trust our instincts, except when we can’t. And you shouldn’t outlaw junk food, except when you should, and oh by the way there probably is a biochemical aspect to addiction to junk food. I agree that emotional overeating is a problem, but we generally aren’t overeating strawberries and plain brown rice. We all know what a healthy meal is and can go to any newsstand to find out? Au contraire. There’s 50 different ideas on that one newsstand, that all contradict each other. And we all know when we are full? Not when we’ve been emotionally eating processed foods our whole life! I know when I’ve had enough plain baked potatoes. On the other hand, I’m never full from Oreos. Yes, there’s a lot of psychology that goes into this, but there’s also an awful lot of biochemistry that we can’t ignore. Some people can eat seemingly normally in this food environment, and others can’t. Just like some people can have one alcoholic drink and it’s fine, and others can’t. Lastly, if she’s saying that kids overdose on sweets because they weren’t given access, does that mean alcoholics overdose because they weren’t given enough access? This topic is just way way way more complicated than this lecture leads on. And she ignores her instincts and eats less than her body wants because she wants to be in media??? Hmm…
So, what can I do about a weight loss plateau? I’ve been sticking to the diet really well for about a year and a half, but the weight loss has slowed to a crawl for the last 8 months. Not sure how to shake it up and keep pushing down, and I know I have plenty more to lose.
Does anyone know good documentaries about Weight in relation to Genetics?
Very difficult to hear her. She is really great! Only one thing I don’t agree with her. She should not preach anyone to waste food. We have no right to waste food just because we can afford to buy it. So when someone is at a restaurant and can’t finish please don’t push the plate away, instead ask for a doggy bag. At home make less, serve less. But PLEASE don’t waste food.
I can’t stress this enough as well. I told my boyfriend that exercise has nothing to do with weight loss. People need to understand that “YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT”. If you eat a lot and exercise a lot you will be a very very muscle-ly heavy person. Also muscles weigh more than fats.
To all the people who are aiming to lose weight, change your diet. Once you approach your desired weight exercise to maintain that weight you’ve lost.
Yes, but consider people who lost weight via dieting and decided to try to shed the last few pounds with exercise. Of course you don’t see a difference in weight. They physically change and lose fat, but the added muscle along with the fat loss evens things out, leaving them near their original weight, which makes it appear as if exercise made no difference in them. Because muscle weighs more than fat, and you can’t tell which pounds are a part of what. Exercise is beneficial to fat loss and getting a fit and healthy/attractive body, but maybe not any scale victories.
As someone who exercises a lot and has been asked by many people to train them, this came up annoyingly often. Many friends/acquaintances ask me how to exercise to get “toned” or lean, or whatever buzz word for low fat. I could get them to exert tons of effort in the gym but couldn’t convince them that it was way more important to stop buying *fucking Cheez-Its*. No matter how studious they were in listening about proper form and what exercises were for, they just could not get this pernicious concept out of their minds and put some effort into changing their food purchasing decisions. I think it’s because so much money goes into selling people things. You can’t sell less consumption very easily(except in programs, which people never stick with), especially when everything else around us focuses on selling you an item. Way easier to sell gym gear, instead and just keep selling “cheese product”.
Maybe I shouldn’t bother dieting then.. if it’s going to come to nothing..
You think we as Americans are not starving? Now! Like India.
Is there an idiot proof guide for what I should eat? Should I just talk to a nutritionist?
99% of weight loss programs and 99% of people who try to lose weight are both unsuccessful. Reducing calories reduces metabolism, therefore, less weight loss. Exercise doesn’t contribute to weight loss. So, what’s the answer to weight loss?
Where is the proof and statistics of preparing your own meals reduces weight?
Has anyone tried Fasting? Ronald McDonald and my doctors don’t recommend Fasting.
As Adam Sandler so succinctly put…..AHHHHH…..HORSESIHT!!! Weight loss is just the most easily seen of the effects of a healthy diet/exercise program. Who cares if you are 100 lbs and out of shape. It’s getting down to looking good and your body being in a healthy state. Which means exercise, diet, and control.
My peers in work have tried also this specific “Yamzoko Weebly” (Google it) weight loss plan and were able to cut over 13lbs. Some people said to me Google it and check out it too. When I really commenced using it the bodyweight just reduced 15 pounds..
WRONG!
I discovered her on that episode of bill bye saves the world and everything she said didn’t make sense to me. If everything she said was true, I wouldn’t have lost so much weight and kept it off. Still losing by the way. Sure sometimes I stall and maintain or gain a few pounds, but guess what, I fucked up, I blame myself for breaking my “diet” which is really just normal healthy eating habits for me. I’m on the keto diet, but I just consider it a normal healthy lifestyle change, eating habit. Within the past two years, since I made the decision to seriously use willpower and motivation, I have been successful at losing fat and the weight that comes with it. From 350 to 227 as I type this. Have I gained significant weight since? NO!
This is gold, for me anyway. I have a babygirl and I kept offering the spoon. Not till the bowl was empty but still It didn’t even feel good, but I thought otherwise she wouldn’t het enough nutrients. This makes me realize that 1 I don’t have to be so insecure and 2 fear is a bad coach
I couldn’t understand why one needs will power if you are telling them to rely them on their own instincts.
This lady blew up like a balloon from overeating. This is an old video. She can’t even control herself from pigging out. How can she lecture others?
Just found this video with Dr. Ramani. What a treasure of a find. Brilliant information. ❤️
Sound volume on this is terrible. Useless video because of that.
We all know that calorie reduction is not the only key to weight loss…activity raises metabolism and in effect helps burn calories more effectively. Also, there is a definite difference between activity and exercise.
According to 0:37 this video expires in October. Time for an update?
You need to read the book that is all based om scientific experiment.
I am a true believer in what she’s saying.
She is not saying don’t use good judgement.
She sis saying that people who don’t eat all day long is not because of will power. It is like some people have an itch that they need to scratch and some don’t have the itch or have a lesser itch to scratch
And actually, I have this proven throughout my life. It is good to have science saying the same thing.
Idk if I like all the vegetables or I think it is good for me to eat them all no matter what. But, there is something behind my all-okay food habit.
I feel like I needed validation since early childhood. And that’s I can eat the worst if vegetables.
That has turned the debate now to ‘what’s the best way to eat’.
In 20 years, the number of obese people in USA increased by 25%. That cannot be explained by genetics.
I’m sorry but anyone who talks about “obesity” for one hour and avoids the word “sugar” is immediately suspect in my book.
With all her fancy studies, how does she explain the 25% increase in obesity rates?
Powerful message! Beautiful delivery and smile, so warm. Love Dr. Ramani
this video is not true. if you truly work out, you’re going to see the difference in weeksor even days. But it’s obvius that your diet is also really important. Both of them can’t be done by it’s own.
Dr. Ramani looks fantastic after her weight loss. It makes her face smaller with her eyes looking bigger. She is so smart! I’m so glad she chose psychology instead of finance.
Warm & genuine. Intelligent & articulate. What a treasure Dr. Ramani is!
great! Probably the use of willpower in the mornings is one of my diet “secrets”… just packing healthy low calorie food in the morning and taking with me. But no money to buy sth at lunchtime. So I end up eating my healthy food, even if I have cravings in the afternoon as I don’t have a choice.
The thing I can remember back when I was an athlete was that when I knew I was exercising the next day it would effect what I wanted to eat. I didn’t want to eat junk food or stuff that might make me feel heavy or maybe even make me sick after my race ( i was a rower). I started to gear towards healthier foods that you can have inside you and not feel like crap when moving your body quickly. Now that I dont exercise the bag of cheetos I might eat doesnt come with physical pain the next day. Its just cheetos and none of the other side effects of working out with crap food in your system.
Does Fenoboci Diet Plan really help to lost crazy amounts of weight? I have read many good stuff about this popular fat burn diet plan.
Yes, obviously 30 min of cardio doesnt burn that many calories. People not being able to run or swim for 30+min is the problem! If you cant keep your heart rate up for that long then you need to workout. if you eat healthy and dont do anything youl still be fat
A well done advice article! I didn’t get such good advice when I was pregnant, but appreciate that this is so important now that so many Americans have become overweight. For women especially, pregnancy can lead them over the edge to health problems. “Eating for Two” as an excuse to eat LESS healthy foods… when MORE healthy is MORE important than ever!
Its not even about your caloric intake either, its about WHAT YOU PUT IN YOUR BODY. Namely, Wheat and sugar, the two substances that literally CAUSE you to gain weight. They raise your insulin, which is a fat storing hormone. This is all backed by studies with several cases yet people ignore its impact completely. Read the book “Wheat Belly” and you will understand just how bad wheat actually is for you. Sugar is bad but wheat is literal cancer for your body and is nothing like the wheat of the past.
I grew up in a country where, at some point, all the shelves in the shops were empty and the government distributed food coupons but there was very little food on the market in general. I would not have dreamt about leaving something on my plate, not only because of “the hungry Etiopian children” but mainly because I knew how much time my mum had spent in the queues to get anything to eat. That respect for food has stayed with me until today; I buy frugally, I hardly ever throw away anything edible and I am still skinny:-) So, it goes to show that not every child who emptied the plate to make the mother happy automatically becomes an obese adult with a problematic relationship with food.
I find this interesting because i have found the most success for weight loss with daily walking/cycling. Eating a healthy diet with a calorie deficit has only kept me stable at about 15-20lbs overweight. I understand that not everyone’s body works the same so I accept I am likely an odd case.
I totally agree with what you’re saying doc. The numbers with weight doesn’t go down with exercise, because, I think that the fat is replaced with muscle, which weighs more, or the same as fat, making the net outcome equal, or a bit off, on the weight gain side. Maybe exercise doesn’t cause weight loss, but, like you mention, it is healthier for the individual.
GREAT talk. Listen to your body and to prof Lustig from University of California as well. NO SUGAR IN YOUR DIET. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM
It is difficult to listen your body when you consume prepackaged food. Do not believe in calories figures either.
2,000 calories a day. That’s all of you need, unless you’re Saitama
You need both. It’s just the way it is. People just need to know that you need to stop stuffing your fat face and get off your fat ass. The problem with this video is that lazy people will use it as an excuse to not work out.
What are some ways to lost a ton of weight? I read plenty of good opinions on the net about how Custokebon Secrets can assist you lost crazy amounts of fat. Has any one tried this popular weight loss methods?
Its still shock me just how some people do not know about Custokebon Secrets despite the fact that a lot of people with it. Thanks to my personal pal who told me about it. I have lost a ton of fat.
Who else watched this while eating some junk food, lays over here
Enjoyed every minute of this profound yet so simple speech. She is such a great speaker, so charismatic and intelligent
I guess few people including this lady still don’t get it. It’s the food. Stop eating industrialized Frankenfood loaded with salt, sugar, fat and white flour and your weight AND health problems will disappear without dieting. Start eating real whole foods as nature presents it.
The solution is simple. If you’re going to drink, drink water. Nothing more.
The main point about what she talking about: “There’s no clear science about this “
Simple solution that works for me: Get enough sleep. When you haven’t had enough, your brain mistakenly thinks you need to eat. If you get enough sleep, you won’t even think about food when you get up. The difference is massive. In modern society, people are short of sleep. That’s where the overweight tendency comes from.
Another thing: Compress the bulk of your food intake each day into a small range of hours. It gives your stomach ‘time off’. I have found this has reduced how much food my stomach can take.
Also beware being the Eater Of Last Resort in your household, the person who finishes off food that would otherwise expire and end up in the bin. In order to avoid the sinful feeling of wasting food, you will end up over-eating.
Beware: This is my guess. It is what works for me.
I’m dying to hear this whole presentation! But the volume is so low that I can’t even hear it with my ear phones! So frustrating!
insulin makes you fat.so eat foods that doesn’t trigger insulin secretion.
Cow Milk is for baby cows! To make cheese for humans you need to starve the baby cafe from mother ‘s milk and milk the mother cow, usually when mother is spent she is killed for her meat. Educated yourself Dr. Ramani about Animal abuse!
“There is no such thing as will power and all weight is a healthy weight…”????
She tip toes around words worrying about offending people but multiple time has no issue saying “Jesus/God” in a curse form.
She wants us to have sympathy for people who are genetically disadvantaged with weight gain again saying will power won’t help but then gives ideas on how to avoid bad food.
I weighed 275lbs. I lost 50lbs because I had an autoimmune disease to gluten and am no getting fit lifting and eating REAL food. It wasn’t a simple “eat less” or “diet” strategy but I still did something about it. Go to a doctor. Go to a nutritionist. Eat Real Food and stop eating crap food. Want some “Will power”? What you’re eating is killing you. A diet may not fix it but doing nothing is, as she puts it (the only real thing I appreciated her saying) is that we are lazy.
We need to stop tip toeing around the issue. Get angry. Get mad. Do something but stop saying woe is me while stuffing your face with a doughnut. You just might have a genetic condition. You just might have a disease causing inflammation like I did. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. If a diet doesn’t work, seek professional help. We can complain about how unfair weight is all we want but that won’t help us when we are six feet under and dead at 45 because we died of obesity. I’m willing to help anyone who is willing to help themselves. I am sure this lady is as kind and compassionate as she is scatter brained but I hear a lot of enabling and a lot of excuses and no real ways to help until 40 minutes into the video which was to “eat veggies first” and to “keep candy out of arms reach.” Really? Ya think? She clearly is doing something right because she looks fit. Instead of telling us “it’s ok” tell us what YOU do for your body type. Every body is different and needs different diets depending on our goals but if you eat candy, drink soda, eat fast food and can’t seem to eat even just 5 cups of veggies ( you need about 10) then you aren’t taking your health seriously. It shouldn’t take WILL POWER to simply want to live unless you are clinically depressed. Obesity WILL kill you and lower your quality of life. Change your lifestylechange your thinkingget your butt off the coach, away from the TV, go outside, make a plan, get friends to help and do it. Sugar is HIGHLY addictive and is in everything in a box. Buy real food, go through a couple days of withdraw and come out a new person. It may not be “will power” but it will take a new and healthy habit to want to have a new and better life.
Is exercising good for maintaining your current (healthy) weight though?
It’s ridiculous how she had to waste time making sure adults wouldn’t start crying like babies.
myth of willpower?
so placebo is also just a myth?
bahahaha:)
she is a great teacher. enjoyed her vary much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
8.25 ” there s no evidence at all that people can harness their willpower. Actually not sure what that even means ” if she wrote the book how can she not know what it means?
8.25 ” there s no evidence at all that people can harness their willpower “? that s a seriously wrong thing to say
myth of willpower? huh? how misleading. I have used willpower to avoid junk foods since I was 10 years old. Roy Baumeister has written a fantastic book called WILLPOWER. So have Kelly Mcgonigal & Walter Mischel. If most ppl don t use their willpower because they are willpower illiterate it does nt make willpower a myth. That s like saying if people don t know Donald Trump he does nt exist!
