You should cuz we dieting

My soul brotha lol

I only eat during new uploads. The Algorithmic diet.

Same here brotha 🫡

😂

Lol iconic comment

Holy shit 😂

You mean "Phat"

🤣

My note with the last 4 years of weigh-ins is titled "Fatty." Whether I'm on a bulk or a cut, it's always accurate.

Yeah, and it's not even necessarily limited to the psychology of the individual actually doing the diet. If you have a partner who doesn't understand how everything works and wants you to give up or thinks you messed up just because your body is holding on to extra water it's worse.

@@sevionmelidan1682 Yes, totally true. Thankfully I have a supportive partner. What you’re talking about is a second psychological minefield all by itself.

1000%. The idea of willpower is outdated, the more we understand what makes us tick, the more we can make ourselves 'tick' in the right direction

@@dangallagher6176 Willpower exists, it’s just an incredibly finite resource. You can’t use it to keep up a diet for long periods of time. It burns out. You use it to for building habits or thought patterns you can leverage into new systems, expecting it to get used up fast. But yes, the old fashioned idea about how it works is terrible. People who tell others to just use willpower already had something about their personal context which meant they didn’t need willpower to get results-something else made it easy or provided the energy.

As someone who doesn't really struggle with weight loss and never had big emotional issues around weight, I would agree. To me, losing weight is pretty easy. I follow a calorie deficit, and yeah I get a bit hungry, sometimes I get impatient about results, but ultimately it's no big deal, I can mostly stick to the diet and get results over a few weeks or months. But I see so many other people really struggle with dieting. But why is it hard for them? It's certainly not that complicated: Eat a bit less than normal, and tolerate some hunger while you keep doing that. It's not the most fun, but it's so simple. Maybe some part of the problem is fad diets confusing people about what actually causes weight loss, but I think the bigger problem is with the psychological issues, which some people have way more of than others.

The rest of the world welcomes you to the sense system, Brother 💪🏻

May try this

That's one good reason to get off the medieval system.

I actually did this on my bench- Partly by accident, but not knowing the exact weights I used to lift with made me properly reset my expectations and now I enjoy going on my calculator dozens of times a session 😝

I also switched to kg (although I can easily do the conversion in my head), I like that I just look at 2 digits and then the minor fluctuations are ignored (e.g. 85kg could be 85.0 or 85.9, which is a couple lbs margin)

😂

I read them a couple of times. One had a section where teenagers could ask a doctor questions. One question was "can I get pregnant from swallowing" and mfer replied "no, just make sure you swallow a condom"

Dude 😂😂😂

One of my exes told me he read his sisters to get better segg advice lmao

This was pre-internet days.... he didn't *read* them exactly

keto/carnivore if U wanna lose fat and be healthy. Don't know why they pushing any other diet s.

@@mhead81 because the overwhelming body of scientific literature and the real world experience of tens of thousands of competent Bodybuilders, Athletes, Fitness Models, PT's, Nutritionists and Dietitians for decades suggests people can get great results while eating SHOCK! HORROR! Rice and Broccoli along side their Chicken Breast. Wild I know.

@@mhead81because any diet that creates a calorie deficit works.. carbs and plants aren’t evil. This is coming from a guy who eats 1.5-2 lbs of meat a day.

@@mhead81keto isn’t sustainable for the rest of your life imo. So if u lose a lot of weight on keto you havent learned how to eat balanced including all food groups and are bound to returning to your old eating habits after the diet.

@@mhead81 keto is indeed great for fat loss, but eating carbs with protein is superior for muscle growth, which is generally better for long term health and even weight loss (if you're putting in the work for muscle growth). So yes keto is imo the gold standard for actually just burning fat and losing weight, but if you want to gain a bunch of muscle and tone up, eating carbs will be much more efficient and effective (and you'll likely feel a lot better and happier).

Bet the weight of celebrities was too.

So few comments on this … 😂 cus y’all dudes would have to admit… nevermind 😅😂

You don’t surprise me 😅. I’ve heard it’s the same for s** lines. Ugly people or grannies sounding breathy and young on the other end of the line. 😬😅😅😅.

And she’s a retard

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Watching a Dr. Mike video is like watching a combo SNL/Mad Magazine skit. You just don't know how it's going to turn out. I like his Stacey character sooooooo muchhhhh!

I’m more of a Kelsey - “The Android Girl” typa guy.

That got me rollin 😂😂😂😂😂😂

That got me acting up

Came out of nowhere with that side story. I needed the break from the edumacating.

Same, Only calories & protein, currently 4 weeks in on a 12 week cut. But on a bulk I only count protein.

@@dadfatherfigure372 nice good job.

I'm regularly shocked how calorific meals are when eating out. Seems like most meals are 800-1300 calories here in the UK, and very easy to eat. I imagine it's even more in the US

@@dangallagher6176 pretty much yea. American food portions are a bit nuts compared to the rest of the world.

Hey I feel you ! I know you can do this ! Sometimes we are asking ourself to do it a way that is not really aligned we what we truly want because we think it’s better and we « should » do this but it’s actually better to find something that we can sustain as you mentionned Concerning cardio Mike has released a video recently where advise among other things to vary types of cardio in order to make it more enjoyable thus sustainable, I think it could be interesting content for you ! Anyway, wish you the best ! You got this !

Wish you good luck!

Wow. Running to lose weight is pure torture. Running for 1 hour only burns a couple hundred calories at best. Who in their right mind can do that? Walking on the other hand is way more sustainable. Sure. It takes way longer to burn calories compared to running. But I can walk for 8 hours and burn a good chuck of calories whereas no human alive can run for 8 hours.

Try a martial art like bjj or muay that you don't even realize you're doing cardio because it's all so you don't die lol

@@jono601…. Plenty of people run that long

I do the same and it works long run

If I swallowed that many dicks on a daily basis I wouldn't track what comes into my mouth either lol

Very many people cannot accept reality on an ongoing basis.

Exactly the same thing I do, except I weigh myself weekly, every Monday before food. Losing somewhere between 0.3 and 0.7 kg per week, which is very sustainable. Also satisfying to see the trend line go down once you put the data into a chart

@@darkroomxvii cool, whatever works! :) there's two reasons I do it daily; 1) I'm impatient! 2) it smooths out the random weight fluctuations. My weight is fairly consistent, but some days I am kilogram heavier than yesterday and if that was my weekly weigh-in it'd piss me off lol

A.....um... You're not wrong.

Nah. My appetite keeping me big. I can control it by training but when for what ever reason i stop training i instantly turn into a fatblob. Its a give and take but thanks to it im big.

@@Sulamanjansulttaaniyou just proved his point

@@Sulamanjansulttaani I can relate all too well.

These comments gotta stop

Same here, I’ve got myself at 700 cal daily deficit, but I’ve caught myself feeling absolutely awful about myself if I don’t have like 300 or more calories left at the end of the day. I have to make an active effort to tell myself, that hitting that calorie count is okay.

Feel you

​@@sebastianblake6119 If it helps I'm in the same boat, I'm already at a 1000 ish calorie deficit but subconsciously don't want to hit my 2000 calories per day so I often fall short. Here's the thing I learned this month that was HUGE. It's not sustainable when you're at 1000 calorie deficit, you need every calorie out of that 2000 set for the day. 10 out of 14 days I'll be anywhere up to 200 calories short of the 2000 and I get really hungry, and after a week I have no energy at all and my partner tells me my mood is changing or my energy is low. Now this is just what works for me so take it with a pinch of salt, but I do and will continue to struggle to hit whatever number of calories I'm allowed per day so my solution is this: (Maintenance is 3000 calories, goal is 2000 calories) I actually eat around 1800 per day - that's a weekly deficit of 1400 calories FROM MY 1000 calorie daily deficit, it's not healthy. To fix this I've added a refeed twice per week where I can have an additional 700 calories and this removes the phycological issue I have of daily calorie targets. When my brain knows it's a refeed to catch up on calories, there's something about that my brain understands and is okay with. So I'm 2000 calories daily except twice per week, on any day, where I can have 2700. This works amazingly well because I can either reintroduce foods I can't currently eat like cereal or toast, because 2000 calories isn't enough to have those foods as snacks whilst eating proper meals, or I can continue as normal but have a REFEED meal, not a cheat meal, there's a difference. I've been clean eating for 3 months now but yesterday I had a pizza from Papa Johns which I easily fit in to the 2700 calories, it was dinner and then a few slices for breakfast the next day. Obviously the better answer is - if I'm already at 1000 calorie deficit, which is around the maximum safe/healthy amount for 1-2lbs per week loss, I should be eating 2000 calories per day (for me and my body based on BMR and TDEE). But because I can't seem to do that these refeed meals level me back out to 2000 calories per day over the week, there's no cheat meals because the calories are accounted for and are a part of my planned deficit. I hope this helps anyone else who has a similar problem to me, I could set a calorie goal of 3000 per day and I still wouldn't eat it😂 Refeed is definitely the best way I've found to keep me going, keep my hormones in check, mood up, energy levels good. If you think this might be for you, just remember you can't leave too many days between your refeeds because 5 days at 1200 calorie deficit is too long and you will start having mood swings, low energy, you'll stop exercising and all sorts. 2 refeeds works for me, but you may need more - so instead of having two 700 extra calorie days, try 3 days with an extra 466 calories if your energy is too low or your mood is affected. Good luck everyone! Mike if you're reading this, thank you for everything you do - and I'd LOVE to hear your opinion on how I'm dealing with this and if it's good advice for those in a similar position to me. - Luke

Awesome stuff!

💯

frfr this had me in stitches, spot on

yeah this definitely is his all time greatest

Sounds like the fat blonde from big mouth!

Sounded like Bob's Burgers characters

Here's hoping you can fix inconsistencies & reach your goals!

Yes currently sitting at 101 pounds lost

Respect!!!👍

You can estimate, I counted calories for 3 months straight and after a while, estimating gets really easy. Try to figure the ratio of fat vs carbs vs protein in food and use the usual 9,4,4

Pooping is wild, yo

@@LukePighetti I always thought my poops looked so small compared to how much I ate throughout the day

@LukePighetti and it wasn't really overnight but like 2-3 days. But I agree. My morning poops are an adventute

I still weigh the same but my clothes fit better my waist and arms got smaller. My legs and butt got tighter which I wanted I don’t focus on the scale

@@Bunny11344 nice!

5'3 175 puts you at a BMI of over 30 which is classified as obese. I find it extremely hard to believe that you're carrying enough muscle to reach that BMI..

BMI is not an accurate measurement for muscular people. Most bodybuilders would come at an overweight or obese number. Hip to waist ratio is a better measure.

Yes!!!!!! Exactly this. It’s a little weird at first but you get over it.

@mattwakeman6167 Yep, that is what my BMI says, which is wild.. pictures of me before, I look like a right fatty but now I have defined legs, back, shoulders etc... I don't know how it works. I'm obviously not 5% body fat or anything, definitely have some stubborn fat on my arms and hips but I have visible muscles everywhere else. I workout hard (2hrs, 5 days a week) and I'm getting pretty strong... I can rep out clean pull ups (as a nearly 80kg lass, I don't think is too bad). So my point was I don't care what the scales say as I look 20x better and feel better 10lbs heavier

Get it girl! I also gained 10 lbs by lifting and ended up looking a lot better! BMI doesn't account for muscle or overall hotness lol.

I've also heard this curious fact 😂

It might be wrong, I know... but I'm in love with her.

It's spelled "lose".
