Thank you, in the name of the ADHD people.

@@ejezful so not being able to concentrate on a video is adhd- ? genuine question btw

@@katievulic758 That can be a part of it, yes. What happens is we start watching a video and even though we want the information and care about the topic sometimes it doesn't stick. Or if there are no visual cues we might have a hard time catching the main message. But if you can't concentrate on a video once in a while that doesn't necessarily mean that you have ADHD. However, if you can't concentrate frequently it might be worth giving a thought or two. thank you for asking :)

@@ejezful yea, before i was properly medicated for ADD i literally couldnt even focus long enough to watch movies or tv or read more than 1 paragraph in a book before zoning out on something else and having to re-read lol

😂😂😂true

I have runners on my mom's side and they always have incredibly slim bodies in their teens and early twenties but they somehow gain weight to be 250+ by the time they are 35. I wonder if it's because they stop the cardio? I mean most people gain a bit as they get older but I was always so shocked that the track runners/slim people in my family seemed to get hit the hardest and struggle the most. They even try to restrict calories but it comes back and seems genuinely harder for them. None were muscular either, just super skinny and great stamina... it all makes so much sense now

@@Ladyn99Because they have no muscle to keep their metabolism high. Cardio/running directly prevents someone from putting muscle on because it’s contradictory for the body. So when they stop the only thing burning calories (cardio), they’ve go no muscle to help continue burning calories when they stop running. So all the sudden they find themselves in a massive surplus.

bruh same 😭😭😭😭

As a hypnotherapist who studies the subconscious mind and how it relates to insomnia, I’d recommend a few exercises to help trick your brain into falling sleep. There’s a lot that goes into good sleep, it’s not as easy as most people tend to think and everyone is different in what they need to shut their body and brain down. If your mind is hyperactive and your body hasn’t expended much energy and if your sleep schedule is already off, then this significantly affects the process and sets you back automatically, much more than the average person. There is also a key factor when it comes to stress and worry and any kind of anxiety disorder. Aside from exploring your own specific insomnia issues in hypnosis, there’s a few extra things you can do. 1. Do a few breathing exercises. You breathe differently when you sleep and it would be good to give your body the signal for that head start. (Breathe in deeply for a few seconds, hold your breath a few seconds, and release as slowly as possible and then before breathing in again hold at the bottom of the breath for a few seconds. Repeat this a few times until you feel your body and mind relaxing 2. On that note, give your body and subconscious as many sleep cues as possible such as the same routine every night, staying away from screens for at least an hour or two before you want to be asleep and changing your bodily state such as a warm shower or bath. 3. About Two hours before bed or 1.5 hours, write down all the thoughts in your head, all the worries. Empty your head. You can also just text it in your phone notepad or email yourself. Get it all out. 4. A bit after that do a few stretches to release any remaining tension in the body. Breathe. 5. Mimic how the mind falls asleep and use your imagination to think of random meaningless pictures... an umbrella, a monkey playing a guitar, a tree climbing the stairs... whatever nonsense... the conscious mind won’t be able to keep up and so it will start to hand the baton over to the subconscious mind and prepare for sleep state. I hope that helps someone.

@@tokyokacie thank you soooo much for these tips I'm going to incorporate these

try a guided sleep wind-down meditation. This helps a lot for me and I used to do that endless staring in the darkness. My brain would just spin.

That’s very reassuring to hear. I’m struggling to lose on 950-1100 calories. I’m definitely going to try this.

thank you for sharing your experience! i just began my reverse today with adding 75 calories, wish me luck!

Lol, my name is Yasmin and that sounds like my story :D Love cooking and conciousness. Have a beautiful day :)

@@--RBuo84 😄 Have a lovely day too. Hope you are in a better place with food now

how tall are you?

LOL DID YOU??

Did you count? How many crunches is it? I’ll do it with y’all 😂

@@MissFitAndNerdy metabolism is said 37 times if I have counted correctly... it is 4:30am so mistakes are possible

@@Sonja25997 lol, I did that it was about 40, but I also counted when she said metabolic.

@@mariamanilenko1120 I only counted the word metabolism. Metabolic was not taken into consideration so late at night.

Thank you!! That means a lot to me ☺️

facts

Yeah same, when I went to the gym (before the whole pandemic thing) doing weights I started to gain weight and bulk up. I’m also pretty petite (5’2) so I think that also plays a role. For me HIIT also works really well for burning calories and fat, but also low impact exercises. The low impact exercises really help with slimming down and toning. When I only do low impact exercises I can eat less than when I also do some HIIT.

What kind of HIIT exercises did you do? ☺️

@@musinsemooya i change it every time Bc my body get used to movements pretty soon so i do it for example like that: 1. Day- Pamela Reif 15min HIIT plus Lilly Sabry abs workout 2.day- yoga or work (i work as nurs So i walk a lot) 3.day- Chloe Ting 15 min HIIT plus Lilly Sabry Arms workout (the boxing one is my fav) + work 4.day- Lilly Sabry butt workout 5.day- Natacha Oceáne 15min HIIT plus morning yoga and breath exercise 6.day- Lilly Sabry full body workout 7.day- rest day So I have HIIT workout on 1.,3. And 5. Day but try to keep the rest of the week flexible as much as possible

@@starrisesky and Heather Robertson. Her videos are so versatile. I feel like a kid at a toy store, I want everything but can only choose one. That's how I feel when I have to choose one of her workouts.

Me watching at 6 am 😅

OMg it’s 2:03

12 am for me

3 am here😑🤣

Exactly! Your body is ALWAYS fighting for what is best for your health. Which sometimes means it is fighting directly against your goals. Sometimes that’s bad and sometimes it’s helpful

Wishing you so much luck!

Yup! Same ugh hvoyctocoy

Try "reverse dieting." Basically, you will have to gain at first, but then your body will get used to high calories and then when you go down to normal, it will adjust, but it will take time.

​@pirate89RAWR but it can be gaining muscle weight, rightm which should increase the metabolism

stay strong

Hey, did u gained more weight? I have a small amount of calories that I can eat and I cannot lose any weight...

​@@esma04girlme too

It’s so critical to understand how it works!

Hahaha glad you liked it! Good luck on your test!!

Thanks so much for watching!!

Thanks so much! I like making the kinds of videos that would have helped me a few years ago :)

GIIIIIRL highly recommend. I’ve taken so many clients through reverse diets and it is a complete game changer 🙌🏻

That’s amazing!!! Those are all great metrics of progress so it sounds like you’re on the right track 🙌🏻🙌🏻 love it!

1. Yay! Thanks so much ☺️☺️ 2. That should definitely help!! I do recommend cycling cardio either way though just to keep the body from fully adapting. Unless you’re trying to actually compete or improve your cardio. Then you do want adaptation. It really all comes down to what your goals are 3. The body can only adapt at a certain rate. If you eat more than it can adopt to, you gain weight. This is the same way it works for weight-loss. Your body starts by losing weight and then adapts and plateaus. If you eat in a surplus, you will gain weight until your body has adapted to the new calorie intake and your weight will plateau. That’s why with a reverse diet, you increase very slowly. So that the body can adapt and minimize weight gain 4. That’s AMAZING 🙌🏻🙌🏻

@@MissFitAndNerdy thank you so much 😘

This is amazing! I’m so happy for you. Sounds like your body is happy for you too 🙌🏻

omg girl this makes me so happy! Thank you!!

Thanks for watching!!! 😄

Congrats on the progress so far! 2020 has been a tough year and honestly it could just be the stress of it all that is preventing your body from letting go of the weight. Just be kind to yourself and maybe take a break from weight loss for a bit and just focus on stress and sleep

It’s kinda crazy how that works!!

omg really ?? I thought hiking was considered cardio to tho im scareddddbsjsjs

Wow how long were your hikes and an estimate amount of days?

@@MissFitAndNerdy, how do you explain that? We don't know if she was carrying a pack, etc.

When you hike, do you hike upwards(like on a hil?). Cuz if you do, you actually gain some muscles, n muscles actually use up more calories, compared to cardio on a treadmill.

Dodie as in doddleoddle?? Best compliment ever 😭

Haha, yes of course ❤

Lmaoooo I would have been dead a while ago 😂😂

Bruh me too 😐

Yesss so key if you wanna eat all the pizza and ice cream hahaha

@@MissFitAndNerdy YEEEES pizza all da way☺️😁

How is it going?

Not great. It turns out listening to my body is hard. And I've made some poor choices with what food I've been keeping in the house. The second problem is easier to fix, so I can start getting back on track.

@@IBkochman Sorry to hear that, but I bet things will work out for you. Good luck.

Definitely hahaha but you might learn during this video that getting enough sleep is super important for your metabolic rate haha

Thank youuuu!! ☺️ I really appreciate your constant support!

@@MissFitAndNerdy you're welcome sweetie😊❤

This is exactly my question lol

I wanna know the answer to this too 👀

You'll burn more calories cuz you're "heavier" and you'll build muscle over time. More muscles=burn more calories

Your metabolic rate will be higher the more muscle mass you have. Carrying a higher amount of body fat or wearing wrist and ankle weights will not have as much an affect as muscle tissue. This is because muscle tissue is more metabolically active, ie it demands more energy to function

It'll take more energy to do every movement, so yes you'll use way more energy. But it's still better to eat less and have better eating habits

@@alexjulius69 eating less doesn't automatically mean better eating habits

You just jump right back up! Your metabolism won't slow in 2-3 weeks so you won't gain fat when you go back to maintenance :)

@@MissFitAndNerdy Thank you! :)

Honestly I think it kind of depends on the medication and why it’s causing the increase in appetite. I would recommend talking to your doctor about this and/or finding a functional medicine doctor to discuss options with

She has a video on this! Just search it up, wait I'll get the link

@@motivation4you842 thank you!

@@miaseibel3793 np

Aww girly there is no need to be ashamed. A lot of the times the people that lose weight in a shorter period of time gain it all back and people who sustain their weight loss over a longer period of time tend to keep it off. Be proud of what you and your body have done, regardless of what happened to other people.

Slow and steady wins the race. You’ll probably have a better chance of keeping the weight off than those who do it really quickly.

Honestly, slower weight loss is usually more sustainable. You’ll be less likely to gain it back! No point in losing weight quickly if you gain it all back a year later

Even though it might slow your metabolism I think it is really important to do the exercise that you love and enjoy! You should still do it but make sure you do some resistance training in between:)

@@sophiarose1418 yeah that’s a reallly good point :) after some thought I also realize exercising is about overall health and even though I don’t have a perfect body, cardio still contributes to a good heart and many other benefits and I think that’s more important anyways

@@spicybeefsalad yeah exactly! :)

It can be! Though usually for that circumstance I would recommend a faster increase in calories. But it sounds like you’ve already gotten your calorie intake up which is great! It can take up to three months from when your body gets healthy to actually get a period so just hang in there and keep focusing on your health. Make sure you’re getting enough sleep and managing your stress as well

@@MissFitAndNerdy I definitely increased my calories super fast. (200 every 1-2 weeks) I also was eating around 1800. I definitely have more energy and feel a lot better. Is period loss due to being a certain weight/body fat percentage or is it energy imbalance/availability? I keep seeing contradictions online about it.

Hormonal adjustment usually takes 3-6 months for our body to adapt. Experienced that since I also have PCOS.

it definitely does. many people react to work stress in one of two directions, they either gain a lot or lose a lot (also get hungry a lot or lose appetite).
