We’ve done videos about "Five Unexpected Results of Switching To A Whole Food Plant Based Diet" ( • Five Unexpected Result... ) and "Five Things We Thought Would Happen During Weight Loss That Didn’t" ( • Five Things We Thought... ).
Now we bring you… TEN “Bad” Things About Weight Loss!
Let me start by saying that, even though there are some “negative” aspects to losing weight, in the end, the health benefits and positives definitely outweigh any “bad” things. That being said, we like to be open and honest, so we thought we would share some of these more uncomfortable things.
So let’s get right on in to the list… watch the video and comment below with your "bad" things!

My kinesthetic awareness was off for a couple of years after I released 120 lbs back to the Universe. Where I would sit, how far from a table, etc. - I was so screwed up for a while. However, I've maintained my weight release for 8 years now, and I know I'll never go back. Now, I know where I'm at in the world again, and I trust myself that I'll honor my healthy body by taking excellent care of myself.

I went through a huge weight loss while also job hunting many years ago. My friend told me to go to the Goodwill in the Ritzy part of town. Found pants and suit jackets that only fit for 2 weeks but they got me through those 2 weeks (and several interviews) and were maybe $3 each? And when they were too big, I donated them. :)

I am in my weight loss journey as well. I am living abroad in Vietnam. I am under the care of my kung fu brother, who is a traditional vietnamese medicine doctor, and he is teaching me qigong and pushing hands (taiji tuisho). He said that qigong will shrink my loose skin. We are documenting this to prove whether it does or doesn't work. I can already see my skin tightening. I will keep you informed about how qigong and pushing hands effects my loose skin. I am a very tall woman and am Brian's current size. I think that the qigong will work, based on what I have seen in the martial arts world.

i will tell you what my weight loss surgeon told me ( 4 years ago , pre WFPB eating ) you need to be at a stable weight , as in not losing anymore, for at least 18 months to really KNOW how your skin will react, said people tended rush into skin repair / removal post weight loss...so much comes into play genetics, healthy diet 😁, hydration levels etc... thanks for all you share, you guys are a big inspiration, i dont have a lot of weight left to lose but i do have some health issues that have massively improved from applying what I have learned from you...and hubby has even joined me in this new way of eating! he really enjoys your videos too 💜

@13Jerred 4 жыл бұрын

That sounds about right. The skin is fairly elastic, and will sometimes tighten up over time. For example, Penn J right when losing the weight, and Penn a year or two after that loss look much different in the face. Less "turkey neck" because the skin followed suit after a while.

Great video guys! I'm on the maintain end of my weight loss journey and have encountered most of these myself. I was 380 at my highest and now am at 180 over the course of 10 years. 1. I'm still always cold, everyone makes fun of me for it. 2 I added running after the weight loss and have gained a lot of my muscle back in my lower half. I can proudly say that bony butt syndrome can be cured with muscle growth. 3. My kinesthetic awareness was always in relation to me in a crowd of people or tight spaces with people. That did go away with the years and now I don't have a phantom body mass screwing with my awareness. BTW I really enjoy the collab between the entire WFPB videos, feels a lot like the Avengers lol.
