How To Start Your Weight Loss Journey - Jillian Michaels

[@IM-uh5tk]

1. Don't dramatically decrease your calories. 2. Stay away from fad diets. 3. Use common sense and make the better choice. 4. Don't overeat. 5. Workout.

[@JillianMichaels]

that's it in a nutshell

[@alittledarlingwithabigstor8585]

Thank you!

[@crystalgrose]

@@JillianMichaelsThanks Jillian ♥️🏋️‍♀️

[@marsgal42]

Some years ago I lost 160 pounds. I did it the hard way, counting calories and exercising. It took a year and a half: I didn't gain it overnight and I wasn't going to lose it overnight. My doctor was thrilled. So was I. :-)

[@Cleaningmovivation]

I loved reading this year and half sounds reliastic.

[@Cleaningmovivation]

I have a stone and half to lose. Just give up after losing 7 pound I want to do it.

[@Cleaningmovivation]

Thankyou I love hearing it takes long term. Thankyou for reply. Movavating. I gained three inches in four months and over half a stone. I get it off and my arms have gained inch. But glad I measured my self as scales confuse sometimes. X

[@marsgal42]

@@Cleaningmovivation You can do it! I weighed myself every week, same time, same day, same clothes, and kept a spreadsheet. There were a few weeks where the numbers weren't great. So be it. In the end they were. At 59 I will never be as skinny as I was when I was 18. Not that I'd want to be. I looked anorexic. Being that skinny isn't flattering when you're middle-aged. I had very clear motivation: I wanted to learn to fly airplanes and while I could pour myself in to a 172 I couldn't get the seatbelt around me. I was crushed but motivated. On the way down I went through several interim wardrobes. Nobody ever talks about that. Whining that none of your clothes fit because you've lost weight gets very little sympathy. :-)

[@JillianMichaels]

BRAVO!!!!

[@markcusack2693]

100% Correct, I lost 105lbs of fat by counting calories and walking, it took me 9 months and I kept it off. That's it !

[@Peppermon22]

How active were you before you started? How much walking did you add to your daily routine?

[@markcusack2693]

@@Peppermon22 I used to be a weight lifting trainer, I let myself get fat "305LBS". All I did was walk, 12,500 steps per one walk.... so about 1:30mins or 10k. I didn't count my steps through the whole day, just on my walks. Because we all know those step counters count every movement as a step. lol

[@JillianMichaels]

I hope you are really proud of that Mark. What an accomplishment. Honestly.

I think the hardest part of going to the gym is actually getting dressed and in the car to go to the gym. Once I’m there, I’m fine, but mentally making the decision to go is 5he hardest for me

[@laurenalan423]

Thank you so much for sharing this, Jillian!! This needs to be addressed. I'm glad you talked about the issue of fad diets and starving oneself. I recently saw a KZbin video made by someone who makes KZbin videos that contain skits that address life issues. One of the issues was bulimia. The characters included a teenager, her widowed father, and her father's girlfriend. The father was constantly discouraging his daughter about her weight. He did it to the point where she became so ashamed of her body that she developed bulimia. When the dad's date came over, she told the dad that he shouldn't be talking to his daughter the way he was talking to her. When the dad's date went to use the restroom, she found that the daughter had fainted as a result of what bulimia was doing to her body. The dad came to his senses and apologized.

[@katelinsu]

Love Jillian. She’s so real and just tells it like it is. I also like how she mentions renting her books and stuff from the library (in other videos not this one), really shows how she cares about the people not just the money

[@wilmariekeene8995]

Great video! Everything you said is spot on! I recently started my weight loss journey in July and lost 60 lbs. What has helped me was simply watching my calorie intake and watching what I eat by making healthier food choices. I also workout 6 days a week doing cardio and weight lifting. I also track my steps on my fitness watch. I aim for 6000 steps or more a day. I'm currently working on my goal of getting at least 10,000 steps a day.

[@Realtor2023-]

I am from India. This is exactly our teachers and holy books used to say centuries ago, and still believe in that don’t make our body a garbage bin. Eat less, do yoga, meditation and exercise: definitely see the difference. I am surprised why your videos has few likes. Keep it up ❤

Jillian Michaels you are my hero. I completed Body Shred all the way to the end, which I've NEVER done before, and I just bought your 6 Keys book. I love how you focus on science, and my favorite thing that you said in this video is, "exercise is the best form of preventative medicine". People laugh when I say that they should exercise to cure all of their aches and pains, and it infuriates me. Thank you, Jillian, for everything that you do, and for showing me the way to health and fitness. I am wishing you a happy, healthy 2021.❤️💪🏋️🥦

[@rebeccaobrien5709]

Thanks Jillian, I appreciate how you always tell it how it is instead of sugar coating it. I needed to hear that today!

[@markmarano9033]

Always great, science-backed info from JM! She says this multiple times in the video - "you know the answer" - and although knowledge is power, it doesn't address the psychological factors of overeating. At the end of the day, people don't overeat because they are "experiencing a calorie deficit". They overeat/gain weight as a response to psychological triggers.

[@musingsatmidlife5278]

As a 56-year-old who's tried "everything" except sticking to a calorie plan/workout combo, this was just the kick in the *ss I needed. I love your blunt honesty, so thank you. Hoping to hike the AT in a few years, so here's to kicking my own *ss. Happy New Year!

[@lisakilby4862]

I recently received a copy of an eating program you created for a video you made. It was reasonable and with regular food. Although I am not using the video as of yet, I am eating regular food but watching what I eat and how much. I didn’t think that it would make a difference. I felt that way due to not exercising my brains out...just a few minutes a day. For two weeks in a row I have lost 1.4 pounds. I am in amazement! Don’t feel like I am on a diet. I switched my approach to consciousness of choice. While I wish for 30 pound lose in a month. I’ll take the steady 1.4 pounds a week. Yeah it is slow but at 50 years old, doing it this way is enjoyable (well as least not miserable). I want to thank you for leaking us valuable things like pdf’s and videos. I have hope this time I am in the right mindset to complete my goal of longtime and lifetime changes for better health and a strong body...who knows I might even get off my diabetes medication! Again...thank you, thank you, thank you!

I looked up belly fat on YOU TUBE and I listened to you, it was very informative. Then this one came up. I am going to remembet what you said, and I am going to try to apply these common sense. You are right, "I KNOW THIS." I was a naturally skinny girl for 38 years did not work out I was always moving. Then I began slowing down I was 5'9 117 at 20, at 35 I was 135, at 45 I was 162,.

You are spot on with all of this information. Years ago I thought keto was the greatest thing. Found out the hard way it’s not sustainable. Since then I’ve been working with a Coach who has Hey similar perspective as you. I started at 240 pounds, currently down to 190 pounds. This was all done by counting calories, making sure I hit my macros, Resistance training three times a week half hour each session and working 10 to 15 Thousand steps today. It’s not rocket science, just common sense. Last time I was down to 190 pounds was over 30 Years ago. Thanks for staying consistent with your beliefs Jillian and keep up the great work.

[@amandamarie3437]

Yes. I love this. This is literally what I started doing. Just counting calories helped keep me accountable to what I was eating in a day and then allowed me to make better decisions about the foods. I'm always eating til satisfied. Not over or under eating and I have felt great. I've also added in light exercise (such as walking), and/or sports I enjoy (like tennis) to help keep me active. In 1 month I lost a 10 lbs and am still going strong. And, finally, someone calling out Keto for what it is! I don't understand how anyone thinks that is a healthy or sustainable diet!

I have worked out for at least 20+ years now-I actually enjoy it mostly (I am 72 now and most people don't believe it). I found your program in the mid 2000's. I ended up losing 15 Pounds and my measurements were good (except I could never seem to reach the proper hip to waist ratio-sigh). I loved your program...it gave great meal plans, a very accessible site...I even did the workouts 4 days a week at my work (we have a gym there), I am not even sure why I stopped...I believe your site was stopped for awhile? anyway, since then, I joined Gold's Gym, worked with a few trainers and the last one helped me take off some more weight. I was so appreciative of your saying do not go below 1200 cal-my last trainer had me on 1000 cal and I definitely lost with her guidance, but didn't achieve the measurement goals or ask about a maintenance diet before she left the gym. So, I had gone back to the 1000 cal diet-when I stayed on it, my weight was good, but I never thought or realized the other consequences you mentioned. I will now follow your advice and watch your videos regularly-I already watched 4 today:) thanks so much for being there for us and for all your hard work in gaining this knowledge!

Thank you for uplifting my mood today and giving me hope to loss weight.

This woman speaks the truth!!

[@happygardener7954]

Thanks Jillian, makes perfect sense to me. You're inspiring me to get back at it this year.

[@sbates1229]

Thank you. I’ve been on WW, Keto, Jenny Craig, Atkins, Southwest, 800 calorie days, etc. Weight came off then if I looked a slice of pizza or fries etc I’d gain it all back and more. YoYo dieting all my life now I’m 56 type 2 diabetes and it doesn’t run in my family. I messed my body up. I wish I ate the right calories and exercised safely and affectively. Now I’m starting over but this time the right way. I needed to hear this message in your video. Thank you again so much! 🌸❤️

The older version of Weight Watchers is similar to counting calories. It's a good program if you're consistent with it.

Thank you Jillian

Best advice I’ve heard lately. Thank you!

I've spent the past few days researching 'diets' and 'weight loss programs'...I have been doing 'bootcamp' now for almost a year, with the 2020 goal to "get stronger". I have achieved this goal & am noticeably stronger, but I am still overweight. Hence my look into 'diet programs'. I love what Jillian says here, it's about a calorie deficit and exercise...well, ok, I have the exercise part done and now need to look at my diet, which I now know to mean "a calorie deficit whilst maintaining the necessary macros for my health!". Thanks, Jillian...I always suspected that Keto/Paleo/LCHF etc were not really good for health. I need to start eating all the macros, but watch the daily calorie intake.

Jillian, so true runner for 30 years ,and lifted looked great. Now a herinated disc ,much harder to control weight

[@gigi559]

All your videos that I have watched are common sense. Love how you explain things. Helps me to understand a lot more.

[@muzmusic31]

I have tried EVERY fad diet out there and it has given me such a horrible relationship with food! I love your videos- You have inspired me to learn more and more about the science of Nutrition.

[@francoisvanwyk8361]

What about the Zone diet- have you tried as well ?

[@sophiad1835]

Getting my long hair chopped tomorrow and now I want this. So cute. But seriously thank you for these videos-I’m 5’4” 230lbs.... I gained 100lbs in a bad depression after college. I’m determined to lose it this year. Simply with calorie counting and getting active. Your Chanel keeps me motivated and focused. Anyways thank you ❤️

[@yasmingracea5524]

I can't stop binge-watching your videos! Thank you for making these! :) Would you consider making a video about IBS and your thoughts on the Low FODMAP diet?

[@joshuasanchez3699]

Try Keto and IF, it lowers inflammation and more often than not IBS is inflammation related. Decreased inflammation is just one of so many health benefits. I recommend watching Dr. Eric Berg, he has so much helpful info right at your fingertips. I personally binge watch his videos.

[@joshuasanchez3699]

I also have IBS in the form of gastritis and I also have a hiatal hernia. I used to suffer with gerd and chest pain and ever since I started keto and intermittent fasting I have lost all the symptoms I had before and I feel great. Don’t listen to this calorie counting diet, it works for some but only if your metabolism is higher to begin with. There’s a reason why calories in and calories out have been around for a 100 years and we still have massive obesity rates in this country. It doesn’t work.

[@yasmingracea5524]

@@joshuasanchez3699 I’ll check that person’s videos out, thank you! That is fantastic that you’ve had so many symptoms alleviated. I’m very hesitant to do a specific diet because I’m a recovered anorexic but... mannnn I just want to be able to 💩 normally!😂

[@Verovero99]

Love so much how informative and to the point your videos are Jillian, thanks so much! Could you do a vid about how to most accurately figure out/track calories in food consumed and spent in exercise? I think that’s also a major reason why counting calories might not work for some people - they overestimate calories burned in exercise and underestimate calories consumed. Thinking this could be a very helpful topic.
