All addiction is about comfort and the need to stop the pain we feel as humans.

You have to start thinking differently about food and your lifestyle. It's not a diet - it's a forever life change.

Started as 300 lbs. Over the years I dropped to 250 ... Then I woke up to me lying to myself. 6 months later 230 and working on getting to the next goal of 200! 😊

I was sedentary for 6 years after retirement, bought some weights and started exercising 3 times a week, no diet changes at all, lost about 13kg, belt size down to last hole and still loose so I bought a new belt, strength up, feeling good at 69 years old.

Don't use the word DIET. It's lifestyle change period. It will take dedication and hard work. Started in Jan and I am doing just fine with IMF. I simply do not eat crap anymore.

I've lost 150lbs with keto/low carb and walking. This is my 5th year of maintaining that loss. I still walk and watch carbs. Discipline, an active lifestyle, and consistency are key. Most diets will work if you stick with them and excercise.

I am one of those people who has lost 60+kgs over 4-5 years and to this day have kept it off even now after 8 years! I have cracked the code to losing weight for myself and keeping it off! No diet as such but dedication to the cause helped long term as everything needs to be sustainable!!!!! Love your work. Have to say, the general information out there does not help and only adds to the confusion to something so simple as eating simple, seasonal and cooking for yourself!!!!

Wow, very powerful. I've recently lost 40% of my weight (without any support from anyone or any medication, just pure will power), working towards shrinking myself in half. Losing those last 10% is quite hard, as I reach plateaus a lot, but I keep going. I still hate sports and gyms and things like that, but I love walking. If I don't do my 10.000 steps a day, something is missing in my life. I honestly enjoy the food I eat now, mainly salads. I had been on diets and struggled with ED all my life since the age of ten, often losing masses of weight, only to gain even more. What has changed and has lead to a complete lifestyle change: 1. Menopause - my life really began with menopause and the hormonal changes that came with it. Before I was unable to control my urges for sweets - this is now controllable with willpower. 2. I have removed all abusive people from my life, both in my private as well as in my professional life. So no need for comfort eating for what other people do to me. I am completely alone, but it seems that's what I need.

A diet is what you consume, everyday. Always. What you eat regularly is Your diet. As soon as people understand that you always have a diet and ‘going on a diet’ is the wrong way to look at food and their bodies, the sooner people will be healthier.

Put yourself in a calorie deficit and you will lose weight. Eat healthy while in that calorie deficit and you will feel pretty good while doing it. Continue to eat healthy, just at maintenance calories, and you will keep it off for as long as you want. It’s that easy, you just have to want it bad enough. It isn’t about will power, but want power. You have to want all the benefits of being healthy and lean more than any perceived benefit you think you get from eating junk. It’s a choice. The first month is the hardest as you detox off all the sugar and junk. Get past that and it gets a lot easier.

I was given antibiotics I didn't need (long story) and put on 13kg despite making no changes to my diet. Not obese yet, but who the heck knows what can happen when your gut microbiome has been devastated

If the set point theory really were valid, then we should have always had pervasive obesity problems. Yet, until processed foods laden with sugars, refined sugars, and seed oils became a bulk of our diet, obesity was a rarity - even a rarity among the very rich who could afford an abundance of calories. Just look at old photos of the public prior to the mid 70s or the data concerning obesity rates during that time. This points to the quality of foods subverting our natural appetite, thus inciting us to eat more calories than we would if the food wasn't as highly refined and hyperpalatable.

Wut? The obesity epidemic started when food companies started to aggressively market sugar and putting it into everything we eat and drink. We were turned into sugar addicts with that first bowl of Frosted Flakes.

We made huge changes as a family a few years ago when my husband dealt with health issues stemming from obesity. I never liked sweets or fast food, so it was easy for me, but he used food as comfort, especially sweets. I'm not American, so I didn't grow up eating processed foods and desserts were only a thing in my family on special occasions. He grew up in Texas, where everything, everywhere is designed to make you crave fatty, sweet and processed food. He switched to eating like I am, which is only whole foods, lots of vegetables and grains, meat sparingly, fruits when the sweet taste bites, etc. He also worked hard to make excersize his new stress coping mechanism. 2 years later, he lost 100lbs and has about 20% body fat, which is a wonderful improvement and a healthy weight for a man in his 40s. I think the whole of Western culture needs to reject processed foods and embrace the low impact, regular exercise I grew up with. I grew up in rural France, BTW, so it's not like we don't love sweets and desserts, but we don't eat processed foods so much.

Don’t focus on calories, focus on what’s healthy. I adopted this approach 11 months ago and have been losing weight since.

This is incredibly informational. I am on ozempic for type II diabetes but before that I’ve struggled my entire reproductive life with PCOS which in most cases also causes insulin resistance. This goes beyond dieting and comfort eating etc. it’s about it being a hormonal and metabolic illness. Each person is an individual with individual healthcare needs. What we need to do is have a great deal more empathy for anyone struggling with visible and invisible health concerns. Stopping our judgement and start / continue having good helpful informational discussions like this one.

I always find it strange when people say we're living more stressful lives. Or is it that we've lost a lot of coping skills? Was it really less stressful in the olden days (before the "magical" 1950's) before medical breakthroughs, multiple births, higher infant mortality, The depression, 2 world wars, etc. etc. My grandma lived in the days before disposable tissues and washing machines and had to wash grandpa's handkerchiefs by hand! She said it was really disgusting, lol!

I went to a countryside health retreat about 12 years ago. We were NOT allowed any tech (mobiles, laptops etc were taken off us) and no TVs, newspapers were present or allowed - all we were told to do was walk (if we chose to) in nature; drink as much herbal tea and water as we wanted all day, read books, chat to other guests, eat our ONE healthy meal around 5pm and go to bed at 9pm. Doing this, I lost 9lbs in 5 days!!! Clearly demonstrates how the media, tech, stress, social media and eating when we aren’t actually hungry builds up our weight. Changed my life.

The diet doesnt end when you reach your goal weight. It just changes. You need to eat no more than what maintains your weight. If you want to lose weight and keep it off, you have to watch what you eat for the rest of your life.

Your guest is complicating things and justifying weight gain. The Bottom line is that we eat a lot of processed food, carbohydrates and sugar. Reduce that and eat lots whole food as nature intended as a lifestyle you'll see the difference

If the drugs lowered the "set point" wouldn't you expect people to maintain their weight after they stop with the injections? Imho ozempic only forces the body into starvation and that's it. It's a bit like a real famine, once the body can eat again it will return to the "set point"

Soooo riveting and eye-opening this conversation, reasoning and deduction. Instant save and one I'll remember in my journey of getting my holistic health back. Thank you!

Recently lost around 25kg over 6/7 months through macro and calorie tracking and regular gym routine. Part of the reason i was able to do it was i got a new job where the gym and health was incentivised by the wider culture and had a local gym with a free membership. There was no secret sauce to doing it, just consistency and having a better understanding of what i was putting into my system

Something I noticed said here multiple times but I never hear these people actually touch on is the psychology of the terminology we use. To go "on a diet" is an inherently temporary thing. If you want long term change you have to make long term changes. Instead of going on a diet you change your diet. When someone says they are "on a diet" they are essentially saying "I'm going to do this for a short time until I get the results I want and then I can stop" and this is exactly where yoyo dieting comes from. I cut my calories, lose 20lb, feel better, start eating more and put on 30lb. And then I blame ti diet and "diet culture". But if I instead change my diet (ie change how AND what I am going to eat for the rest of my life) then this can be sustaining. We have to stop lying to ourselves and trying to fool ourselves with buzz words and tricky language and just be blunt and honest. "If I keep eating this it's going to kill me"

The another reason for the increase of suicides after bariatric gastric surgery is because most of our serotonin is made in the gut so when you mess with that people get depressed.

From my own experience I fully concur with this. I have found that there are weight plateaus. You get to a certain level where weight will fluctuate by 5-10lb but to get thru the new floor is incredibly difficult. As weight rises above the ceiling a new plateau forms. I have been dieting most of my lifetime and constantly since my late 20s, and will probably continue for my lifetime

Because it’s not as much about “calories in, calories out” as it is what kind of calories you put in your mouth. But doesn’t help that we’ve been generally lied to about the food pyramid and what is healthy for decades now.

Yes and micro biome also plays a huge role in mood and mental health

Our lives are NOT more stressful in the first world. Those of us fortunate enough to be in the first world have access to comforts in terms of food abundance, shelter, clean water, and freedom from threats of constant war that were unimagined by our forebearers. Our forebearers lived lives that were brutal and short. We need to keep this in mind.

Talking about comforting foods, that is why losing weight is not only physical but psychological. I don’t care how many drugs you take or surgeries you get, until the reason why is addressed and relearned behavior is implemented sustainable weight loss is not possible. Our comfort from food cannot be replaced with a drug or surgery.

Re the gastric band thing - I know of 2 people who had it and what they found depressing is the amount of loose skin they are left with if they r not able to access surgery to have it removed - not the loss of comfort eating

Really interesting points of view.

you’re absolutely right about that dullness factor. Mounjaro kills your appetite. Suppresses it to a point where you have to make yourself eat and remind yourself to do so. And that was only at 7.5. It was ramping up from five so eating becomes a chore. Ozempic on the other hand, you feel so terrible that your brain has to consciously think of what and how much and how to prepare your food so that you don’t feel bad after eating it. It’s on these drugs. I can no longer freely. Enjoy without thinking of the consequences now that I’m on Ozempic. but before I literally had to just make myself eat. I’m an ex chef. I cook my own meals. I enjoy the hell out of food. Now it’s work.

Brilliant part of the interview - by both parties.

It's profoundly disturbing that doctors and scientists are pushing this without asking why is obesity increasing when fifty years ago almost no one was fat! It's what people eat and how much people eat!!

I think you said you used Ozempic. I would feel dull too. I was obsessed and I am now keto carnivore and lost weight naturally. I finally have control over what I eat and all my meds are gone as well as my feeling of dullness. Finally food does not rule my life and think this is the difference between a drug induced weight loss and a weight loss caused by eating the right healthy whole foods.

Gastric bands aren’t available anymore on nhs are they? Until a massive connection is made and addressed between your mental health and overeating, obesity will never be cured

My neighbor had the gastric band. She was so lazy and let everyone do everything for her. Told the doctor what he wanted to hear. Got the band a week later went out on the lash and was found dead in her bed the next morning. She thought it was an instant cure, didn't think she had to put in any effort, ate cream buns etc and had a skin full of vodka while her body probably had the anaesthetic still rolling around her 30+ stone of tissue. I knew when she went into hospital for the procedure she wouldn't stick to any diet and probably burst the band. Didn't think about the possibility of alcohol on her stressed body killing her.

Can attest to this. I have high functioning anxiety, and comfort eating is my way of self soothing. When I'm cutting weight my mental health is brutal to cope with.

Johan's stories on rogan about people's addiction are incredible

I recon we can comfort eat without overeating. Mindfully chew the food, experience the flavours and textures. I always feel more comforted after doing that, rather than stuffing my face (something I used to do a lot).

My grandfather lived to 98 and had no dementia. He was obese. I have a morbidly obese friend who is 83. She has dementia but it's from medication she is on. She was about 80 when she started taking it, and had no dementia. The doctor who prescribed it said it would have this effect but would prevent any recurrence of cancer. Now these are anecdotal, and I don't think being obese is good. But it isn’t always a death sentence, or cause dementia.

Why do people assume it needs to be on a diet. It’s food, healthy food. It’s not a diet, it’s what you eat. You don’t need a diet if you eat well. Why go on a diet for 3 months, then go back to the junk you eat before. Makes no sense. Eat well, that’s it. 😂 Not rocket science. And exercise is not exercise, it called life. You move and do things. There is no special exercise routine to do. Just get out and walk, run and be active in your daily life. Dieting and exercise plans are just marketing by companies to sell you shit.

So learning alternate comforting methods is key,

(7:25) I think dieting held to together with willpower, unstainable goals and unrealistic routines has been the main problem. Setting achievable goals in eating, systematically cutting out highly processed foods . Moderate daily exercise routines, 15 to 30 minutes of moderate exercise over 6 days a week. Probably the most important mindset is that you are going to fail plenty of times in pursuing these goals but accepting this as part of the process and getting back on track as many times as it takes to achieve want you wanted.

food companies are cheap. High fructose corn syrup is what's used, a lot more than sugar and it's WORSE than sugar, too

I never took anything to loose weight (im already on medication for my JIA) and i honestly thought loosing weight will be this amazing thing and i actually went through this wierd faze of hating myself more. Im not sure if its because i was trying to come to grips of being this new version of myself. I finally came through it and felt amazing. I put weight back on due to steroids and currently am on my weightloss journey. And atleast know what to expect. I dont do diets its pointless but i realised sugar triggered my inflammation so thats mostly gone. A perfect excuse haha.

I was in so much trauma that I was in constant fight or flight mode although it was more like fight or freeze but anyway i had small improvements when I was away from the abusive environment and eating exactly the same foods and portions I was losing weight as my body was reducing cortisol and not telling me to store all my calories as fat. I ended up with a form of cushings syndrome not caused by a pituitary tumour but caused by metabolic hormone imbalances which then went off the rails even when I was away from the stressors. But I was and still am living in those environments and have been for the last 20-25 years since high school and don’t think my body will ever recover from the damage. I ended up with other hormonal issues stemming from it and a severe autoimmune disease leaving me unable to walk for a few years about 12 years ago and then again last year. Now I can walk but barely and with huge permanent damage to my feet. All the while my weight was going up eating the same foods or even eating very little because I couldn’t even move and my cortisol was so high. So yeah I’ve found out the hard way that it’s not calories in vs calories out. It’s hormones and metabolic issues and other things too.

I lost 40 lbs on keto diet over about 8 months and kept up a kind of atkins after that for about a year. The thing is the more weight I lost the more I could move and be more active again and since I had missed feeling like I could move easily I took full advantage of that and started moving and biking and gardening and doing things that had me eating less frequently and able to burn off a lot of it when I did occasionally overeat

i lost nearly 60 pounds doing high fat low carb keto. kept it off for nearly 6 years, then the shut down happened. never went back to a sad diet ..but gained back 20 pounds. went back on keto in january and can't move a pound. i don't eat a lot, i don't really comfort eat. my (new) doc at both of my visits has wanted to put me on ozempic. i'm very hesitant to use it.

People get anxiety and the cortisol goes up and it drives up the appetite 😢. Society needs to change and they need to stop adding sugar to meat and make vegetables cheaper.

I lost 60 pounds and felt so lost. I didn't know how to "be" anymore, didn't know what to wear, how to live because eating was such a big part of everything. I knew how to be fat, I didn't know how to be not fat.

I fasted for nearly a month worth of days last year, 30 days over 13 months, and I kept on returning to my prior body weight. I wasn't trying to lose weight either; I was experimenting with the experience, hoping to realize the other benefits. I'm at a healthy body weight already. No one claims that Ozempic doesn't work, but lots of people experience negative side effects, and going back off it is a problem for many. I don't necessarily have a better answer to share. Fasting could work, but it's not easy for most people, and taking a very informed and careful approach would be necessary. Your body won't reset to a lower normal weight without unusual inputs being a cause for that.

The real epidemic isn't obesity, it's the lack of attention and affection. Much of our attention is centered around material aspects and loveless social media and there is no lack of food but a lack of connecting with others while eating. I, for one, am far less 'hungry' when l am eating a meal with my family or friends. A real sit down meal is far more satiating than a frantic bite on the go. No drug is as powerful as the presence of a loving soul sharing a meal with me. !!

I just had an epiphany. In my 30s, I was hanging out with a group of athletes... so I ran and cycled regularly. Since I was also racing, I ate healthy food that would help weigh loss and muscle gain. But I wasn't feeling Comfort. I thought about where I got that comfort because the eating and workouts did not bring comfort, I was competing. I realized that I replaced food comfort with shopping, because I had a shopping addiction back then. I wouldn't always buy stuff but I went to the mall and big box stores regularly. I wasn't happy unless I bought something. I live a minimalist life now, and I am fatter, but now I am trying to get comfort from growing my own food (which is labor intensive when you don't buy big bags of soil and emoluments). I also still workout but while doing aerobics, weight training, and walking, I try to incorporate a relaxing comfort time into the Workouts. Now my weight is dropping slowly but it's because I replaced processed foods with fresh and minimal sugar.😊 But having a magic pull would be nice for a few months.

He had some good points , but whether you try the drug or try a diet doesn't matter. You have to change the way you think and feel about food. If your on the drug are you going to take it for Life ??? How long do you continue to lose muscle if your a woman? I really dont know the answer, but i will work on getting my mind right to change for Life. I wish us all the best on this journey ❤

I have had so many friends that had Bariatric Surgery and many lost their personality, some became absolutely grumpy, others broke their marriages and families up, some actually reverted to their old weight as they found lollies that dissolved in their stomach and didn't need to be broken up with stomach acids quickly added sugar into their system and the weight returned, but it was the personality changes that were so noticeable and dramatic

So what is the solution..teach ourselves to consider the salad or lower calorie meal as our comfort food?

So what's the solution?

I've tried every diet and never lost weight on any except Keto and Fasting, neither of which lasted longer than a couple of months. This month, I tried Carnivore with Keto as my backup if I fall off the wagon. It's great. I've lost 18 lbs in the first month and don't feel as though it's in any way restrictive. I'm just never hungry and rather than thinking I should want to exercise.. I FEEL I NEED TO EXERCISE!

Usually overlooked - there are medications and such that cause weight gain. I gained 40 lbs in one year (at age 39) and have never been able to lose more than 25 lbs of that (which takes a year and a half to do, I've done it 4 times, it comes back in 6 months). If I subtracted the 40 from my current weight I would weigh the same as I did 25 years ago.

In my opinion, the biggest reasons diets fail is because the very notion of a diet is something that will come to an end. If you then go back to how things were before the diet then you will go back to where you were, it's not rocket science. If you want to lose weight permanently, then you need to make changes to your lifestyle/diet that last forever and this is the first and most important thing that needs to happen. When you are ready to commit to living differently then you can begin. You are not on a diet, you have changed your lifestyle to a better one. Understanding the need to control blood sugar levels and how to do that through learning how different types of food is digested is critical. Ultra processed food, added sugar, high GI carbohydrates have to go. Instead eating the right mix of fat, protein, low GI carbs combined with increased activity and an intermittent fasting period is what works. Nothing to eat after 6pm and breakfast at 8am gives a 14 hour period during the latter part of which the body will burn fat for its energy needs. Around 3 am your body increases this burning to raise your blood sugar to give you energy to get you ready for the day ahead. Who knew it was so easy to lose weight while you sleep!

Makes sense!!❤

I was 235 pounds. I’m a PCOS and thyroid issue sufferer. I stayed at 235 for many years. That was my set point. My silly doctor decided to put me on a weight loss drug. It was a appetite suppressant. At night when it would wear off at 8 o’clock I was famished and ate everything in the world, my brain was telling me to eat eat eat. And I gained 30 pounds. My setpoint then became 255 pounds. I haven’t been able to get back to 235 without the use of weight loss injections. setpoint is a very very real thing. We all have it. That’s where our bodies want to be when we start with it. It’s usually a bad outcome more than good.

It's also worth exploring what constitutes dieting in these studies. So often these diets are way too extreme /restrictive for most people. The vast majority of people cannot and should not be dieting below 2000 calories and expecting that it could be sustainable.

When I start feeling hungry outside of a regular meal time window, I drink some water, get up and go for a quick walk, and then reassess. If I’m still hungry, I’ll go eat an apple and peanut butter or a banana. This keeps me from eating just because I’m bored or actually just thirsty.

You get what you repeat! Quote from “Atomic Habits”

If you think diet is all about willpower, therein lies the issue.

Another thing nobody talks about are underlying health issues, Financial reasons depression side effects of drugs,could not lose weight, when contracted gum disease, early twenties,take care of your teeth!

Another way to think of what's being said: mitochondria have states, energy producing capacity of generating and wasting, vs energy iminimization and conserving. Anything you can do to boost your body's energy producing (and using vs storing) state will allow more control. Food choice, exercise, cold therapy, movement in general, ...

No diet! Lost 20kg in 5 months. I only changed what and when I eat. No starving, no deprivation.

I agree about bariatric surgery. Two guys I knew seemed to just stop smiling after that surgery.

How does sugar addiction compare to other addictions?

We’re eating less protein - specifically less beef! Increase protein and stop addictive processed foods and you’ll lose the fat

An ozempic expert!!!!!!!! Of course there is a choice but that choice is extremely difficult given the advertising propaganda. The solution to that is to control the advertising and /or balancing it with anti carb advertising similar to anti smoking.

It seems like every episode is about Ozempic.

Homeostasis is both the best thing and the worst thing. People worry about the side effects of weight lot medication, but the dangers of morbid obesity as we get older, are huge. Yes, I'm on Mounjaro.

Also to add I think lifestyle has made a huge impact way more than set point theory. Calories in vs calories out is irrefutable Stress is higher as Steven quite rightly said impacts relationship with food and physiology Calories are more abundant than ever Our activity has dropped hugely So calories are still key but 2024 life is more of an uphill battle than any point in history. I’m not anti ozempic but if we go for this without considering lifestyle strategies we are missing out on a huge impact for health

It's the period after dinner. If you don't go to bed early, you stay up watching processed food commercials.

fun fact: Ozempic has killed my sweet tooth. I’ve had a sweet tooth since I was born. I am 60 this year. And for the last 2 1/2 months haven’t craved sweets. Am I still eating carbs? Yes . Am I enjoying them? No.

I am French. I make my own food, I do not drink milk, fruit juice or sweet drinks. I do not snack or very rarely and when I do it will be on a piece of cheese or slice of ham. I cook with butter, cream or olive oil. I do not put on a gram. I went go the States for 21 days. I put on 5 kg!

It has to be a lifestyle change. I allow myself a few treats at the weekend.

Set point for the win. My mom put me on diets the moment she adopted me at 2 years old, I kept yo- yo ing my life away. Healthy weight husband would start a diet with me and not make it to dinner. He’s vacillated maybe10 pounds by never dieting…

I remember the feeling, I described it as empty, void, I lost 3 and a half stone Iin 12 months on high protein, low carbs, I just felt emotionally empty.

People cannot keep the weight off becuase of anxiety. Anxiety switches off the hunger and fullness cues that health people do feel....nobody talks about this. The rest is gaining weight, mainly women as over 35 they usually get Insuline resistance and thyroid problems, but these two are not the same problems. Willpower only works short term vs reduction of anxiety which will keep the weight off.

There is definitely a set point. Mine now won't let me go below a much lower number than years ago. I can get within 1 1/2 pounds of a landmark goal and I can't get there. It's crazy. No matter what I do, I'm stuck. There is a set point and I will trick it and win. I've done it before.

this is whatis hard about quitting overeating/sugar and quitting alcohol you become healthier technically, you look better, you feel better physically but you are deprived of that source of comfort, pleasure and stress relief the apparent advice would just find another source of dopamine and endorphine, like fitness and physical activity I hate physical activity and I am too lazy, I hate hiking, I hate running, I never learnt to cycle or swim and at this stage of my life I am working 9 to 6 and I barely have time to my hobby I don't want to spend my evening at a gym and come home when it is 9PM and just go to bed maybe I would go to a gym if I wouldn't work, but then I wouldn't have money to pay for the gym

10:41 here is what I think would be an effective experiment on overeating: the control group is subjected to a series of anxiety creating situations, and then is allowed to eat anything they want. The experimental group is subjected to the same stresses, but they are only allowed to eat protein, fat, and fiber. I'm going to go out on a limb and suppose that the experimental group will not eat as much as the control group.

I could not lose weight not matter how much I exercised. I did IMF and I still could not lose weight. I craved carbs too much. Then I simplified things and just started eating two meals a day. I eat at about 9 and then again at 7 or 8. No snacks. He is the catcher. I can eat anything I want and eat big meals BUT I had to eat lots of healthy food. I could eat fries or ice cream or whatever, but I had to also eat healthy food. I started to lose 1.5 kg a week like clockwork. So easy to do. I now cannot imagine eating three meals a day. I think the key plan is different for everyone. Good luck to all those out there struggling. I hope you find your key to a healthy diet.

Exactly.

It took a life time to get the body you have, it takes a long time to undo. The term “go on a diet” creates the impression that it is a temporary change, when what is required is a lifestyle change.

I'm post 50, and was just into the obese range. I had already cut out chocolate, candy, cakes, biscuits, deep fried, food takeaways, ice cream, soft drinks, all the food that they say you shouldn't eat and I lost ZERO. Then I changed not what I ate but how I ate. I reduced the amount I ate. I cut my portion size, and learned to eat slower. I cut out coffee and only drink water. I also walk my small dog every day usually about 20 mins a day but sometimes more. The weight started to slowly drop weight. I have now lost 2 full clothes sizes and am no longer in the obesity range. It is now just how I eat. I don't crave food, and if anything I have an anti reaction to foods.

Not all tacos are shitty food Mr. Matthew Perry look alike. Of course, if you know how to properly make them

Ultimately... boiling it down... It's still will power though isn't it... Own your emotions don't be led by them... Setpoint just makes it harder. Tv and digital and our modern lives just makes it harder. Still will power.

It's starts as children. Parents have the responsibility to make sure their kids stay healthy. NO CHILD should be fat! That 100% on the parents.

What is 3 stone?

I found dr Jamnadas whos a cardiologist on utube and his video " the fat lies"ive lost 40 lbs 2 years ago and in the process of getting the other 25 off.i haven't been ths thin since the 80s.

I was thinking maybe this video would be a twist in the tale, and that junk food satiates more . I think maybe it's easier to eat tasty food in small quantities.

I was prescribed Rybelus for my diabetes. I didn't know it helps you lose weight till now. I'm 5ft 2, 136lbs I don't think I need to lose weight. My doctor did not tell me anything about this pill. i am having problems with my pancreas. I am missing enzymes, vitamin deficiency, blood in stool, and colon inflammation. Pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, tissue transglutaminase iga deficiency
