[@theoldaccountthatiusedtous6767]

Yes! A tiny action can start to give you more energy and agency over your life, which can lead to a tiny bit more motivation, which can lead to a tiny bit more action, in a positive spiral.

[@cherriberri8373]

That's something you appreciate with depression, there are SO, so many negative and self sabotaging cycles/feedback loops to fall into. But it helps you identify and use the positive cycles if you can reflect on things well.

Congrats on your weight loss! I did too, lost around 50 (goal is 15 more), but had to change my lifestyle around food. Biggest thing was learning to cook better and finding a happy medium with food.

[@JessieEden92]

Thank you Dr. Mike for debunking these weight loss theories. They can be so harmful to people. Back in high school, during the mid 2000's, one of my best friends was anorexic and was always coming to school with articles from magazines that were filled with promises to lose fat quick. I watched one of my best friends go from a beautiful, outgoing girl to a shell of herself and it killed me that the only thing I could do was give her moral support. Especially when I found out that another one of our 'friends' was calling her fat and ugly when no one else was around. And despite everything she was going through, she was the first one to support when I got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and even came to visit me in hospital. If only there were videos like this back then, maybe she would have been more open to seeing that these 'articles' weren't what they seemed to be.

[@CatsAreNiceMeow]

Lol

[@Avis0123]

​@@CatsAreNiceMeow what is that supposed to mean...

[@Duckduckobtusegoose]

I think it’s really important when talking about “the pooch” that it’s often regarding women who have had children. Women have organs that men don’t have and we get our skin stretched out when carrying children, it’s not always realistic to “lose the pooch” because the pooch is simply their body changing due to carrying children.

[@hudamn2297]

That "pooch" could also be from a weakened core / diastasis recti as a result of pregnancy. And in that case, it does need to be solved because a problematic core can cause other issues.

[@Duckduckobtusegoose]

@@hudamn2297 for some for sure! For many, it’s just skin that’s just been stretched out from growing a human. A flat stomach isn’t attainable for most women(not including teens in this). It just wasn’t even touched on at all that it’s not always something that can be changed so that was the main reason for my comment. I get that for some people it can be fixed, which is what he said, I’m speaking about the opposite, but I appreciate some other scenarios where it can be changed☺️

[@bethanyharris6916]

It's daily struggle for me. It has been over a year, and nothing seems to help

[@littleblackcar]

Or age. I have zero kids and one pooch.

[@loveyeah37]

These videos destroyed me, physically and mentally. I started doing these kinds of "diets". I know, it was a stupid thing to do, but anyway, I started it and ended up with an eating disorder that almost sent me to the hospital. I couldn't even close the car door due to muscle weakness. I'm better now but still, with everything I eat, I will always check the calories of a product or food I have on my plate. I also have this belief that I need to lose weight the whole time and that doesn't help me much psychologically. Please, if anyone wants to lose weight (and not their health), then you can see a nutritionist to make you a diet plan and to give you proper advice on whatever question you have, or you can start a healthy program for yourself, but for this, you will need either a proper diet or a way of exercising that suits you best. Thank you Dr. Mike for opening our eyes!!🖤

[@shelleyowen1108]

I’m so sorry you had to go through that but I’m so glad you are getting better!!🎉

[@betterversionn]

People don't "need" a nutritionist to change their eating habits toward healthy, nutritious living. What diet were you on that put you in the hospital due to muscle weakness? And how many calories were you eating each day?

[@oceaneo4603]

​@@betterversionnUughhhh... yeah, you do. We need to learn how to eat, as our body can't product some nutrients which are essential to our survival.

[@betterversionn]

@@oceaneo4603 people “need” a nutritionist in order to learn to eat healthy? The internet exists, people can learn about healthy eating on their own if they just want to read a bit. Even a good rule of thumb to primarily just shop the perimeter of the grocery store is a good rule of thumb that can at least have people understanding “whole and lightly processed foods = good” / “ultra-processed foods = not so good/bad”. Don’t overcomplicate things. With over 70% of Americans overweight, it’ll just prevent some people from taking that first step of beginning a healthy eating lifestyle if they think it’s this overly difficult thing which isn’t attainable without employing a nutritionist - which just isn’t true. I mean - it couldn’t be farther from the truth, because as I said, while they can surely be helpful, they aren’t needed…at all (unless someone has a serious medical condition, I suppose).

[@loveyeah37]

​​@@betterversionn Don't be a smart*ss. You don't have any idea what it's like to be anorexic. And NO internet can't be trustworthy. You need someone who knows how to start a proper diet for you. And if you really read my comment, then in the last sentences I wrote that you CAN start a proper diet for yourself, but either you will do exercise or you will have a diet plan that will be right.

[@elizmaoosthuizen3201]

I'm so glad he discussed this. It's always so difficult to explain this to people that it's all about caloric intake and that there is no quick fix diet or that you can't solely rely on exercise to loose weight. I always tell people you loose weight in the kitchen, the exercise is for health, physical and mental.

What truly matters is to have a healthy relationship with that concept and to not do something that would be harmful one way or another just for someone else. Losing weight because you want to be more attractive to certain people is a perfectly good and valid reason. What matters is to lose said weight properly.

Thanks doctor Mike, I totally agree with the last part. There are some very good tips one can change in the video and as a woman I also agree with eating less and more often (more stable energy levels through the day and never eating till completely full so that you'd feel you can "last" 12 hours in between). And eating plenty protein is also not a bad idea along with some healthy carbs in the form of vegetables and whole fruits. Just the way they present it is so so wrong... Such a shame and shows how much influence the language we use has on us and how we feel about ourselves.

I (male) did lose 30kg in a few months when I was in my early 30s, by eating well and exercising.

[@PaulHirst-og4uk]

I love the fact that whilst watching this I noticed a video in the recommendations called " The only chocolate cake recipe you'll ever need ". Brilliant !

[@jricedrums]

I love this content of Dr. Mike debunking other videos. I especially love it when he starts yelling, it's just so entertaining!

[@EuRoWeIrD]

The fact that people still thought that this worked is sad.

The majority of them are almost definitely young, impressionable children which makes it even worse. It's not their fault.

[@DeepestGrave1]

As a personal trainer, this is hilarious to hear lol

[@Queen.S.2024]

I am soooooooo glad for ur Chanel. There’s soooo much BS online its crazy. Loosing weight takes TIME and effort… ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@Tulpen23]

Very cathartic, thank you!

Seeing a dietician during my worst point with my eating disorder helped me find peace in so many areas. I still struggle, but I feel SO much better. Can you please bring in a dietician to destroy dieting culture?

[@RTgamesYT]

Hello dr.mike! Big fan

[@jillsanto397]

I love all your videos and how heated you get. You have such passion and it’s so refreshing. I especially loved “I can’t believe I just cursed” lol You’re the best ❤

[@vegangence7081]

This is the content I love.

"I lost my stomach fat in just one week!" I think there is exactly one way that sentence ends that isn't bullshit: "...with liposuction!" lol

[@DraftVoice]

I agree with eating less calories, walking more, and the exercises but that isn't what the damn title said! I feel bad for people who watch this non sense and become demotivated And before you start calling this comment the subtitles of the video, I'm just expressing my opinions and insight to that video, and me and Dr Mike have similar opinions on this

[@DMSrunit]

People always want quick results, I really wish it was like the movies but you got to put in work

[@nailsofinterest]

The channel "How To Cook That" debunks this channel a lot!! Plus a few others that do "food hacks". Especially the dangerous hacks!

[@dotunderscore]

The abdominal massage helps me poop 🤷🏻‍♀️ lol I love some of your reaction videos - thank you for the laughs :)

[@fransinigiraldo4695]

These are my fave videos Dr Mike. The debunking hack ones. Still trying to get thru the Gundry one. I get so fed up w him I need to take breaks to recover. Thanks for what you do to support medical science 🙏🏼

[@nehorayx]

Dr Mike we need a video showing the healthiest item on every fast food store

[@LouisTheAlligator14]

KZbin should warn people over false information.

[@eriglaser]

Cat-Cow isn't even for the belly, it's a spine exercise 😂

[@pierremaiden]

That brightside video had to be AI made in some way. it feels so unreal.

[@eggiesammich]

Appreciate what you said about salt! My doctors almost always tell me to eat more salt (especially when pregnant). My last BP reading was 87/57, but I don't really have symptoms of hypotension.

Thanks for all you do to break down misinformation. Have you thought of doing a vid breaking down common misconceptions of diseases in media. Having worked for a leprosy charity in the past, it’s something I frequently see misunderstood or used as a throwaway joke without people really knowing what it is or does. Maybe a quick fire vid of diseases in media/online that are spoken about inaccurately?
