Losing the weight is quite easy. Not falling back into the old tracks is hard. Which is the problem with diets. You work hard for a month and then what? You just get right back at eating unhealthy again. You need to find a new healthy way of life that works for you in the long run and keeps you satisfied. That is the hard part.

This is great. I spent 18 years working at Cambridge (uk) unversity on diabetes and obesity. What guga has said here is largely correct. You cannot lose weight without eating fewer calories than you expend. Different methods of acheiving this goal work for different people - but magic diets are lies. You have to eat less than you expend, its physics not biology. Me and my wife have gone through the same thing recently, 50lb for me and 39lb for her and we have done what guga suggests - not the same foods, but the same principle. Its hard work but his focus on flavour and taste, while focussing on calorie budget, is great. All power to you guga!

I was 150kgs at 50. Been struggling since a teenger. Tried all types of diets. Was always active for my size and played all sports at school. As an adult. Boxing, Karate, Mountain Biking and MMA. At 50 I started calorie counting, as I had an accident at work and needed to lose weight to assist my injured knee. I lost 50 kgs in 8 months. No exercise. 2 of my 7 days were fasting, only eating 600 cals on those days and 1800 on the rest. I also used a phone app called my fitness pal, to monitor fats, carbos, protein, sugars etc. Cut out bread and all processed foods. I started eating breakfast, something I never done. Oats and honey. Drank only water, not as much as you first did. Unfortunately as I lost the weight I became ill. Diagnosed with MGUS just before lockdown 2020. I am recovering from a spinal operation that was done last year after a MRI. It saw me having 24 hrs to be in surgery to save my life. Which I was given 2 years to recover from. I am still waiting on the original operations 7 years on, which I have no idea when they will happen. This is New Zealand. Upside is that I am alive and enjoy watching your channels.

[@jasonz5701]

Congratulations, Guga. I down 45 pounds from 317. We are about the same height so it's inspiring to see you slim. I just added the sled push to my weight training routine, and I love it. Thank you for the video. 8 months is not that long in whole picture.

[@moudar.871]

I've been a subscriber for some years and I think that this video is, in my own humble opinion, the best video that you've ever done, because it will effect a lot of people trying to lose weight. Congrats on the good results and keep it going and keep in touch with your doctor.

[@fish8196]

nice work! I like how you still let yourself eat food on vacations etc as I feel this is very important and actually helpful in the long run. I try to give myself 1 day or 1 meal a week that I can eat whatever I want and that helps me stay on track the other 6 days of the week. Keep up the good work

[@thaloh]

Congrats Guga! I'm also on the weight loss journey since I was diagnosed with diabetes and kidney failure. I lost a total of 100 pounds and put my diabetes into remission. My method was controlling my sodium and sugar intake (I used teaspoons of fish or soy sauce along with sugar or honey per serving), eating a LOT of stir fry veggies, and most importantly, limiting fast food and packaged food (i cut it completely when I was first diagnosed). I also limited my carbs only for breakfast or after a workout which is usually a small serving, and my dinner is only protein and veggies. I'm excited to see your progress and any steps you've taken along the way!

[@Heterogeneity]

Amazing! Good work you 🎉

[@CarbageMan]

Yup. Limiting carbs, unhealthy oils and ultra-processed food-like substances is key!

[@ShoeT95]

I was at my heaviest ever at the end of last year. I have now lost over 60lbs in the last 7 months. Portion control and lots of lean protein, salads, veggies, cutting carbs, limited alcohol choices definitely helped. My guilty pleasure is soda but that is the only sugar I like. My husband and I only dine out once a week as a treat. I still have at least 30-35lbs to go to be at the weight that I always felt the best. Congrats on your weight loss success, love your videos and been watching for years now, I’ve become so much better on the grill. Thank you for all you do!

Since watching this video I broke some of the bad habits I kept from wrestling and started eating breakfast, took a more mild calorie deficit plan and this week I found the plan to be sustainable and enjoyable and I've seen the inflammation go down, joint pain and fatigue reduce and my sleep improve, and a nice result on the scale to start! Thanks guys!

[@TheLumpRulz]

Amazing job, Guga!! Like you, I too was quite heavy. I was 409 pounds being 5'7" tall. Keto is what worked for me. Straight up keto. No keto bars or supplements. Just straight foods. Add intermittent fasting to mix, and I was able to reach 199 pounds. It took me 19 months to get there but I DID. Now, I eat what I want but just small portions. Mainly protein. I've been maintaining for almost a year now. Not strictly following keto but still intermittent fasting. Keep up the good work, Guga!! You got this.

[@puggirl415]

That's fantastic, congratulations! I thought for sure Guga was going to say he did the carnivore diet or the Ketovore. Love your story.

@puggirl415 Thank you for your kind words. 🙏. It was a tough journey, but well worth it.

[@Djkidkrazyx2x]

Wow that’s amazing man. This hits home to me cause I’m also 5’7. How long have you had the weight off? With you protein, was there anything special you did so your taste buds didn’t jump off the band wagon? Also with the fasting, how long between your next meal. Sorry for all the questions, I’m just really curious. Again, congrats and love how you shared your story with us. Take care and god bless 🙏🏼

[@TheLumpRulz]

@Djkidkrazyx2x Thank you! I don't mind the questions at all. Happy to share. I'm 2 weeks shy of a full year. For my proteins, I was constantly rotating chicken, pork, beef, fish. I love to cook, so changing the spices and methods of cooking was instrumental. Lots of quality fats. I used unsalted butter to control sodium. I salted separate from my spices. As for intermittent fasting... my first meal was between 12-1pm. Next meal was between 6-7pm. Bulletproof coffee was a huge help when getting started. It did help with cravings.

[@nickmetal131]

Make sure to have some refeed weeks which means you slightly raise your calories to your current maintenance amount to make such your body doesn't adapt to the deficit. Otherwise the deficite becomes your new maintenance level and nobody wants that. Keep it up!

[@badaboehm]

Hey Guga, congratulations!!! Fan from Germany here. I was nearly 300 pounds at one point, but have been mostly fit for the past twelve years. I have two tips for you that you might consider. 1.) The person who taught me proper nutrition, urged me to only eat large amounts of carbs after weight training. This is when the muscles need them in order to rebuild. In my experience this works like a charm. On other days, focus on mostly protein and fats. 2.) Consider trying calisthenics. You're essentially training with your bodyweight, and will feel a lot more "toned". Plus you won't need a gym when you travel, and will have a lot more freedom with what you can eat while abroad 😊

[@itsmederek1]

Calisthenics does not make you more toned, it grows muscles the exact same way as weights. Timing carbs post training has also been proven not to matter at all, the most important things are not being to far above or below maintenance calories and eating high protein to be satiated and grow muscle.

[@severalwolves]

back in the day when dudes smoked a pipe and wore a turtleneck while they worked out, calisthenics was the only type of exercise that had been invented yet. haha I’m just kidding. those old pictures of beefy guys doing calisthenics and throwing medicine balls at each other are funny though. and it’s crazy that so much of the common forms of exercise (and strength training) that we use today have only been around for a few decades.

[@edwardsilver4012]

@@angelachouinard4581 Thank you so much for your kind words! I greatly appreciate it :) Stress and increased weight gain are directly linked because the liver starts produces LDL Cholesterol (the bad one!) when stressed! The best way to counteract it is to actively do (even little) exercise whenever you feel stressed by something. This will actively counteract it and not only make you gain fat on a slower rate but also improve your overall mood ! Dont give up :) Im sure you can do it!

Great job! I believe in everyone else who plans to give it a try, including myself. I know I need to make some changes too-like drinking more water (I’m currently at 16.9 oz a day), cutting back on tea and soda, and letting go of my favorite snacks (which I'll definitely miss, but it’s worth it for better health). And as for vaping, it’s time to quit for good. It’s not healthy and is starting to cause problems. Here’s to making better choices and becoming healthier together!

[@Jcewazhere]

Try some agave in your tea instead of sugar or honey. I'm able to use less while still having the tea taste sweet enough. Also those Liquid Death teas are only 30 calories per 20oz can. And yeah drink more water. Helped me cut the calories I drink from >300 to around 60 per day.

[@GainingDespair]

I lost about 70 pounds a few years ago, mostly dieting and limiting calories but also a good bit of easy excersise (walking 4 miles each morning when its cool and comfortable outside). I tried the gym as well, I always found it made me hungrier than calories burned. Came to the realization calories are far easier to eat than burn. So I limited my intake to 1500 calories a day, if I could eat less I did. I am 6'2 and I was 275 pounds. In the end I was 202, under 200 was my last updated goal but I really stalled at 202 still I was pleased and I felt a lot more energetic after. As for dieting its hard at first, you will always feel hungry but if you stick too it for 2 weeks it becomes a lot easier as your body just gets use to the smaller meals so you really don't feel very hungry in between meals.

[@julioselitetraining]

Hi Guga I've been a huge fan for years! I wanna say as a personal trainer every thing you said was so great! A lot of people have so many misconceptions of diet and weight loss, I love how you emphasized on the calorie/money analogy, as people tend to restrict themselves so much on what they "can't" eat and also how you showed how you can find alternative to some of your favorite snacks! Huge congratulations on your weight loss journey as well, when is the 6 pack coming 👀

[@michaelthem3]

Don't totally discard your egg yolks. They have a great deal of vitamins and necessary stuff, but, let's say, for each 3 or 4 whites, leave 1 yolk, if you're so inclined, so you don't lose all of its benefits, but it'll add more calories, of course, as it has fats on it. Congrats on deciding to make a change and taking action. You're already looking amazing! 🔥🔥🔥

[@L1f3hAcK]

I love this video. The reason is that I´ve been really struggling with my weight for the last 10 years. Lost over 100lbs, just to gain almost everything back, lost around 75 lbs, gained it back again, I was never able to maintain it. Didn´t matter if I was on Keto, if I ate carbs and enough protein (basically a balanced diet), I just wasn´t able to maintain the weight after a weight loss phase. Now I´m at 230 lbs with 33% body fat, absolutely not what I want. Been going to the Gym for 8 months now, didn´t loose weight, but at least didn´t gain any weight either. Watching you´re journey and your methods is really refreshing to see, especially because my struggles are very similar to yours. Finding ways to satsfy your cravings is the key, don´t skip on everything you used to love (like you do on Keto), but finds creative and clever ways and you will be successful in the long run. I hope you can maintain it and you should be very proud of what you have accomplished, well done man!

[@BronzedBeast]

Remember it's always calories and calories out. Record a typical day of eating, write down everything including cooking oils, sauces, etc. Then add up the calories. 2k calories is a good indicator but if you notice you're no longer losing weight on 2k calories. That means it's now your maintenance and you either have to lower the calories you're eating or increase your muscle mass or increase cardio

[@gmorgan894]

[@ariefnoorrahman3492]

Exactly.... I am never been on being significantly overweight. However in the past few months my weight has been constantly creeping up. I used to lose 4kg every once in a while when I have too much fun. However doing this after married is difficult as I cant leave food my wife prepped untouched. So, my solution is to mostly reduce snacking, increase protein, and significantly cut on sugary drink. And reduce the anount of food I eat on my own

[@sathisk]

@@gmorgan894 I disagree. It's about carb, protein and fat intake. Reduces carbs and to a certain extent the fat intake. Eat moderately and see the magic happen regardless of calories.

[@Flipflop437]

Here is some unsolicited advice from someone who lost 25 lbs over the past 18 months (200 to 175). I plan to lose 10 more pounds before the year ends. Guga’s advice of calories in calories out, prioritizing protein, and weight training is all great advice. The only thing I disagree with is how fast he did it. Losing 100 pounds in 8 months requires nearly a 1,500 calorie deficit…yikes… The reason most people put the weight back on after a fat loss phase is because they do it too fast. Guga will likely regain a fair amount of that fat because he went too hard. Instead, a calorie deficit for you at 230lbs should be more around 500-1,000 calorie deficit per day. But you definitely don’t want to do this deficit for 8 straight months. Take it 5-10 pounds at a time then take a break and practice maintaining your new weight for a month or so. It takes your body some time to regulate your hunger and satiety cues to a new body weight, and maintaining a new body weight is frankly not that hard because you get to eat 500-1000 more calories a day compared to when you were dieting. Once you feel mentally and physically ready to lose another 5-10 pounds, then enter another fat loss phase. The secret is slow, steady and consistent, then never regaining the weight. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Better to take 2 years to get to a desired weight that you’ll be able to maintain the rest of your life, rather than take 6 months to get down to it and immediately put the weight right back on again.

Awesome job, Guga. I've also been on a weight loss journey. It's been hard for me because I honestly feel like I am addicted to food. It's like I would have something carb heavy, and then I would just lose all control and eat way too much of it. I tried Keto a few times to no success because my problem was really moderation of carbs. Now, I've been eating fully carnivore for 6 months (with some slip ups like you talked about with your mexican vacation), and I'm down almost 50 pounds and feel better than ever. I finally feel like I'm in control of my eating, and I've been able to really enjoy life much more. I've still got a lot to lose (about 120 lbs), but I now know that I can do it.
