How You Will Restore The SET POINT WEIGHT? Why Are People Overweight Then? // Q&A #2

[@Murphy-xm1yp]

Yes absolutely!!! I had a very restrictive mentality! So even though I didn't calorie restrict a ton, I mentally was always trying to restrict and it naturally made me want to overeat, which made me gain weight. It's crazy how your mind set affects your body.

[@jenzieisreal1433]

how did you stop the restriction mentally 🥺

[@franscine1232]

@@jenzieisreal1433 I'm going through this journey myself still, but I think it has to do with changing your mentality around the way you look. There are so many other important and great things about you other than the way you look! Think about yourself as if you were a friend or your future daughter/son. Would you like the way she sees herself? Do you really judge your friends or your family based on the smallest things like if they gained some weight or if they aren't skinny? No. We think about their personalities, likes/dislikes, how they make us feel, their dreams or goals, how funny they are, how cute they are, etc. So why see yourself any differently from that?

[@jennanana7859]

What a great and helpful video! Lately I’ve been wondering if all I’m recovery is for me. My whole life I’ve been a bit overweight (I’m 5.3 feet tall and weighed 176 pounds) and I ate whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted too. I’m also convinced that I overate a lot too. Exactly one year ago I started dieting. I cut out any sugar, carbs, ate less and exercised a lot (half an hour a day, six days a week + walking about 10.000-20.000 steps a day). At the beginning it was rather intuitive, but than I started counting calories. I ate 1200-1400 calories and continued with cutting out everything. I even cut out fruits because of the sugar in it. I was scared of food, scared of gaining weight. I couldn’t stop thinking about food, planing every meal. When I wanted to eat out with friends, I had to make sure the food was on MyFitnessPal so I could calculate everything. I felt trapped, scared, unhealthy and unhappy. Everything lead me to a weight of 121 pounds, which isn’t underweight, but I still only ate eggs and vegetables. And last month I couldn’t do it any longer. People around me got concerned and I started to reflect a little more. The fact, that I haven’t got my period for 5 months lead me to start all in recovery. And I just forced myself to completely stop thinking about calories and just enjoy the food I craved. It worked. But with the extreme hunger, I’ve gained a lot of weight I suppose. Because I don’t weigh myself anymore, I only see and feel the changes. And this makes me very uncomfortable. I feel like in just a month I’ve gained all those pounds I lost back and because of my past I am scared I will just keep on gaining. On the other hand I feel like my hunger has decreased a little. I just don’t Know, if I should continue to listen to my body, since I had the tendency to overeat in the past. I also don’t Know what my set point weight is. What I know is that I just feel very uncomfortable right now. I can’t shower without crying and I avoid looking in the mirror at all costs, which is so so wrong, I know. Will it get better? Should I continue to listen to my hunger cues and eat whatever I want? Will I become overweight again? Those are questions that keep me up at night and I don’t know the answer. I suppose I should learn to accept and love my body. And this is the hardest part. I’m wishing everyone who read this a wonderful day/night! Sending lots of love❤️ and I would be very happy if some people could share their experiences and thoughts💕

Elisa, I've struggled with an ED for a little over 10 years now. The past couple years it has completely consumed my life and I can't even get into details because it's just too dark. I know I've gained a few lbs because I can see some changes and I feel more energetic and balanced with my hormones but I'm still super afraid of gaining the weight just because it's so uncomfortable and I got so thin that that's what felt good to me. I feel very stuck right now. I still restrict so much. Your videos are so helpful though. Especially knowing recovery is possible and essential.

It’s interesting but very generalized and over simplified. Definitely worth the listen to because giving in to cravings does reduce them and I say this as a person w hormonal and brain disturbance. But everyone is different and for instance a lot of ppl are overweight because they do not know they are lactose intolerant. Just an example. Thank you for your words there was some revelation in it.

[@patrycjamochocka1810]

Thank you for this video. I really needed to hear this. I am in recovery but still struggling with restrictive thinking. Knowing that the restrictive thinking has to go for the body to heal was a very important point for me. Also healing the body from the inside. I notice how anxious and tense my body feels even when I think of loosing weight or forcing myself to exercise. No I see how this thinking stimulates the production of stress hormones which increase appetite and decrease energy and metabolism. Now I'm focusing on relaxing my nervous system by meditating and exercising when I feel like it. Having fun with it, feels much better. Makes me feel like a playful kid. I'm grateful for your work. Thank you.

[@PerlaOC]

katelyn Buls my recovery lasted over half a year

[@KATBULS]

Perla Ochoa and does the water rention, bloating and extreme hunger last that long? and the weight gain? :(

[@FollowTheIntuition]

its very individual. can be a few months, half a year, a year. if its a year it doesn't mean its every day, but the symptoms are maybe coming and going, gradually decreasing over time. everybody is different. the best you can do to "speed it up" is to stay very consistent with recovery, don't fall back to relapse and just keep doing all the recovery things like eating enough, resting more, working on body image etc. 1.5 months is very early in recovery, so give it plenty of time, even when you do everything "correctly" your body just needs time as well. and 35 lbs is not all fat, it can be mostly water weight, bloating, more food in your belly, restored glycogen. fast weight gain is a sign of water retention, this is why some people can put on 15+ lbs in just a week, it's a clear sign of water retention...and stop weighing yourself, you don't need that trigger, it will only sabotage your recovery.

[@PerlaOC]

katelyn Buls water retention is so much less in my case, at first it was severe, and I used to avoid salt for that reason, but now I eat out and I'm currently in a trip, I eat with my husband what he eats, I eat till satiety, and take my leftovers if I get full, eat them if I'm hungry an hour later too, I may even eat small meals all day if I need to. Honestly, I bought bigger and loser clothing, I feel prettier, cute lose blouses, and jeggings, new comfy heels, do my hair pretty.... my confidence is now in my success rather than being in the bones.

[@KATBULS]

You are absolutely right, i need to be more patient with myself here, .. i forget that sometimes

[@BlackOreoCookie]

I've been overweight/obese for as long as I can remember, I've gone through anorexia with overexercising, i tried veganism, keto, IF, and I just kept gaining and losing all the time. When i started IE again for the 3rd time last july, i ate A LOT of cheesecake (just coming from keto, lol). Now, if I really listen, i notice that i don't get hungry much. I think it's working, but I'm wondering about where my set point is, as I've always been overweight in my experience. We shall see.

[@lisay9859]

Once you get to a point where you’re energy balanced and the thought of food doesn’t consume your mind, you aren’t restricting and you’re basically maintaining your weight no matter what, that’s where I’d say your set point is. Even if it’s “overweight.” If your body is happy and healthy, and dieting/restriction is not part of the equation at all, that’s where you should be!

[@BlackOreoCookie]

@@lisay9859 Okay, so then it's a matter of taking weight out of the equation when it comes to ''health''? As long as my body is functioning optimally, weight doesn't matter (even with high bmi etc)?

[@petegail3185]

From what I got from her videos is is if your daughter is still not eating enough calories to beal he metabolism, she'll stay in a quasi reco very state .Shell eat more and then restrict some and then eat nor.al and keep cycling up. This is what has happened to me and I haven't quite gotten out of the .middle ground ,when I eat more I start to gain, so I eat less and do the whole process over again.Instead you're supposed to eat till your body stops gaining and then it will start to find it's own weight set point.

Also, people who have been overweight for very long periods of time have the opposite problem from caloric restriction, so their bodies are use to being at a higher weight than their set point. Now, if these same people begin a healthy diet program, notice that they will lose weight VERY quickly, because their body has been trying to go down to their set point for a long time. If they choose not to lose weight, then they are eating so much that the body cannot fight the high calorie intake. And yes, many people have other issues besides just overeating. They are perhaps taking medications that interfere with their bodies going down to their set point. I have found it very easy to stay at my set point, because it is the weight that my body has decided is right for me. That's not to say that I sit around and eat like a pig. But I do eat what I want, in normal moderation, with no fear of getting overweight for my height. I just eat like a normal person who likes food, but is not obsessed with food.

But men and women have very different metabolisms so surely the outcomes would be different if women were being studied. That's why I have a hard time believing the outcomes of the Minnesota starvation experiment. Men's metabolism is much different. I wonder what would've happen if they'd done this with women. 1500 calories a day isn't as little for a woman as it is for a man, so of course they're going to be "starving" on that amount. If women did this, and then started eating 10,000 calories a day, surely they would've gained a lot more weight than the men, maybe even becoming overweight.

[@lisay9859]

Women and mens’ metabolisms aren’t THAT different. I usually maintain around 2500 and lightly active, and I’m a female with a bmi of around 19-20. According to online calorie calculators, I’d be gaining at least 2 pounds a week eating this amount, and what do you know, I‘m maintaining.
