buzz feed should get their staff more healthy foods not just fast food

[@kstorey94]

they probably offer it...it's just a lot easier to choose fried chicken over salad.

[@Missab4000]

tycho van dongen it ensures they have people to be in their weight loss videos.

[@hayleyjune4796]

They have it if you look at some of there video but if your sitting at a computer all day r u going to chose the easy chips or the apple

Well you can eat fish that's yummy and heathy, drink lemonade... I could eat only fish just fish all day every very day. You get the point

Finally! a video(from Buzzfeed) about someone losing weight where they actually show you how that person did it

[@Kaalyn_HOW]

Uhhhh... they have SEVERAL videos of this? Where have you been?

[@Sunshine_Hime]

Ik they have several videos but in most of them you dont have a full detailed info of what is to be done in order to loose weight

[@haloandgames1832]

I wouldn't recommend cutting your calories down to 1,200 though. Unless your a Female. If you are a male I would just stick with 2,000 and Moderate exercise.

[@victorianicolova4419]

Even for females it's unhealthy unless you are extremely short and don't do anything at all during the day. Rather than cutting calories as much just make them healthy calories. Fruits , veggies, smoothies. And exercise

[@bitstripsguy]

I assume it's because all of the other weight loss/muscle gain videos usually have some kind of nutritionist, or a personal trainer heavily involved. If the videos showed the viewers a detailed version of what makes up these quick and effective weight loss or workout routines, people would find no need in paying some personal trainer or nutritionist a decent amount of money to give them what they can recreate for free by simply watching a video. In other words, if they explain how to lose weight, or how to gain muscle, personal trainers and nutritionists would gain no more money.

[@amyannaroy8357]

BuzzFeed should create a fitness channel

[@carlellifontanilla4250]

Yes for me

[@jasanderssen]

The reason you lost weight isn't because you drank your food. It's because you consumed less calories.

[@HKKetoRecipes]

BINGO!

[@muffinmonster2634]

Right

[@legionmaniac-9202]

End video

[@HallucinoJenn]

I think for some people soylent/huel is great because it does keep you in check with calories. Sometimes it’s hard to keep in touch with really how many you’re consuming (I am guilty of this) that’s why I’ve always enjoyed drinking my breakfast and sometimes lunch because I can really keep in hold of how much I’m consuming. Yes, to lose any weight is to eat in a calorie deficit and if it’s easier for you to actually eat food then hell yeah, and if you need a drink because it’s easy and quick then also hell yeah!

[@v1dream996]

Your actually dum thats not the only reason

[@HNSCaller]

i mean i dont wanna be negative but he did say that he didnt exercise and yes he lost 40 pounds by dieting which is great for him but he did it in a rly dangerous way and it should be promoted as a good thing for a grown man to starv him self on 1.3cal

sophia wepking we really loved it though 😂

[@Kaalyn_HOW]

KANE IS SO DAMN ADORABLE. I love his approach and just overall thoughts about weight, feeling brave enough to look at and accept your body as is, and then decide if you wanna change it or not. That's the best most healthy approach and I love it!

[@vickylewis8558]

But he could have just had porridge for breakfast for 200 calories? Would have been a heck of a lot cheaper and he'd have lost weight just the same. :-/

[@blackdash225]

it literally doesn't matter what you eat/drink for breakfast they just put that in the title for clickbait, he could've had chocolate for breakfast and lost weight as long as he's in a caloric deficit, it's simple thermodynamics

@@Drewless no, a caloric surplus leads to your body storing excess energy as fat, doesn't matter if it's sugar, another type of carbs or another macronutrient

[@specialed5055]

I've lost 20 pounds in the last 2 and a half months and haven't worked out at all..... I stopped eating sugar, processed and greasy foods and started eating much more vegetables, fruits, and overall natural foods. Now I mostly live off of water, oatmeal, beans, rice, salads, basically anything healthy and my fat just melted away.... it's not a strict diet but now I just can't stand drinking a soda or eating a burger or chocolate, it literally makes me sick.

[@biancagallardo8010]

levi james try going vegan!! if you already eat healthy

[@specialed5055]

Bianca Gallardo lol that's what I'm doing.... I'm on a vegan diet but I don't claim to be one because every now and then I do eat something that's not necessarily vegan.

[@itstwinklerkate]

levi james I did that too back in highschool!! I was overweight all throughout freshmen and started to eat healthy during my sophomore year. I lost about 15 kgs in two months and never been happier. I started to gain weight in college though so I'm trying to be healthy again!!

[@ieshastewart613]

I've started eating much healthier again and this happens to me too. I've always only drank water which is good, but even eating a slice of pizza or chips now makes me feel ill. But it's a good way to prevent you from eating bad food knowing you'll feel sick afterwards!

[@moymouypalaboy]

i did that about 2 years ago. stop eating all the processed foods, including soda, sugary stuff, canned foods etc. now i can't even drink full can of soda because it feels awful and makes me sick

You know, this is exactly it. He said he learned to look at his body, not to shy away, and take things on from there. And I realized it too. I am fat, but I stop by a mirror to check myself out and I am confident in how I look and I am ready to make myself look better and be healthier. So please, do not shame those who are fat but confident now, sad, shy, fat people with little to no confidence will get called horrible names and the only thing that makes them feel better at the end of the day is food. That's why it is important to feel good in our bodies at any point, because then we have the energy and spirit and confidence to say 'you know what! i am going to get a dope new track suit and begin running every day!' instead of 'i want to hide from the world, wait, do i still have that big ice cream in the freezer?' haha

[@danceartist8203]

do not buy a tracksuit before you start... thats a good way to lose a lot of money.

yu nana you’re right but I think the only thing is there comes a point where if you are too overweight it becomes an issue to your health

No, you lost 40lbs by eating in a deficit of calories...

[@simransimran9339]

Dude, 1500 is the recommend avg calories for an avg adult with a desk job. For someone overweight, 1300 isn't extreme. Actually you also have to make sure to burn some in exercise as well aside from this diet change.

[@tmfields2011]

Thank you, Kane, for sharing your journey. From what I heard it sounds like you are no longer disconnected from your body, but much in tune with it and listening to your body's needs. I've been on a weight loss journey myself. I've lost 80 lbs in the last 2 years. sometimes my weight still fluctuates, but the difference now is that I am no longer disconnected, ignoring the weight gain or the way I felt about myself. Like you, I just want to feel good in my body and not be held back. Thank you, Kane.

That's awesome! I hope you're still doing well :)

I think I am addicted to all these weight loss related buzzfeed videos

[@Harmonia96]

My old high school made P.E. an optional course for junior and senior year, so I haven't properly worked out for about 5 years now. I'm about 165 pounds, and I spend most of my day sitting/lying down and typing works like novels and poetry. I need motivation to get back into working out, so for every "like" that this comment gets, I'l do a set of 10 crunches, 15 push-ups, 30 seconds each of the Superman and banana poses, and 50 jumping jacks.

[@nikiemartin827]

you can do it! I believe in you! I think i'll join this challenge as well!

[@Harmonia96]

I have terrible self esteem issues, so this means so much to me! I promise I'll make you all proud! If after a couple of sets I start to settle in the routine and feel ready to do more, I'll let y'all know if I add anything else, but most likely it'll be walks around the neighborhood or shooting hoops with the locals here. I honestly wasn't expecting so much feedback, so I feel really inspired to move forward with this!

[@sommerblume9671]

JNguyen Hey hope it all goes well! I'm also on the path to a better diet and working out since i'm around 5ft and 8 stone. :) So I think i'll also try this!

B E my fitness pal gets such a bad rep. As someone whose been through similar you were already likely to develop an eating disorder and MyFitnessPal was how it manifested in you. No genuine psychologist would blame an app, it's just how to eating disorder was expressed in your disordered eating pattern.

[@siristrollo2772]

B E yep happened to me too, I thought I would eat 1300 kcals (obviously too little) but I ended up eating 300-450 kcals a day for half a year only because the app tricked me to think that less is better.. But of course, I was already developing an eating disorder, but the app helped me to count calories... The most difficult part is that once you know how many calories there is in food it's super difficult to ignore it

[@harriethanson412]

The app tells you when you complete your diary if youre eating too little, and to stop

I lost 200 pounds in high school, and gained 100 back in college. I'm gonna keep coming back to this video for encouragement. :)

[@ellymellyvids]

Absolute props. I've done the weight loss thing - lost 40kg 6 years ago and never looked back but it was hard - and a lot of people don't realise just how committed you have to be. You have to change your life forever and sort your priorities out. Well done for succeeding. The results speak for themselves. :)

[@MAGGIE_CHI]

theres an app called *Eat This Much* and it gives you a number of how many calories you can eat per meal depending your size and diet(amount of meals you can take) and excersive, and gives you recipes to meals you can make and you have options if you dont like it. you can also mark off what veggies, meats, or other ingredients you wish to not take part of your meals

All throughout high school till about 2014 I weighed 97 pounds. I’m short for my age I’m 4ft 11” tall. Between 2015-2019 I went from 97 pounds to between 126-128 mostly like you said, in my stomach and thighs area. I even had people ask me if I was pregnant and when I said no I am not and never have been they usually never believe me. As of 05/12/20 my weight is 116. I’m trying to get my weight to 100 before July 17 of this year because that’s when I’m going to Florida and I want to be able to wear this swimsuit I bought like 3 years ago from Amazon that I have not been able to wear because it was to tight around my stomach. I have about 9 weeks before my trip and I have about 5 weeks before I move.

[@medeirosdez]

Ah, I'm 29 and weighing 185 pounds as well. My metabolism used to be fast, but it has slowed down significantly, just like yourself. Your video has definitely inspired me.

[@ira6605]

I needed this at the moment. Currently juggling various unhealthy methods to drop weight fast. Thank you for reminding that its not about how we look but about how we treat our body.

[@ma-rl6ce]

Not only our bodies but ourselfs in general. Be kind to yourself!

[@BrieFoxVT]

Well, my story for this weight loss would be like this: Last March of 2017, I got low self-esteem and no self-confidence due to my weight. Basically, it kept screwing up for me with sizes. The moment where my finals were done, that's where I applied for a gym membership as a summer plan. I went through a ton of diet changes and activities. Seeing as I wasn't active at all, it was very hard for me to even lift and discipline my cravings, especially that I have a goal of losing 50 pounds. I kept going till I reached a loss of 24 pounds in less than three months. I'm more healthy and careful with my body now, along with the fact that I can lift stuff and keep up with physical activities. I'm only halfway from my goal, but you could say that I have learned a lot of things from my experience. That's all.

[@Fernandodbsb]

Congrats i hope you're doing well today

[@Banyo__]

I really do appreciate you sharing all this. I'm always interested in the work people have to do to work on themselves, and I especially like that you still presented your before and after body with the same amount of love.

[@raychelgonos224]

I should really try this. Men typically weigh more than women, especially if they are older. I just turned 13 a couple of weeks ago and I weigh more than him (a 25 year old man). I also checked our heights and he is a couple inches taller than me. Wish me luck everyone! I will be posting updates on this comment once a month so no one will have to ask for my progress. Right now, I weigh 153 pounds.

[@thebloodlessarcanist]

Another thing to keep in mind is babyfat, you'll usually carry some of that until around 15 probably.

Raychel Gonos hey don't sweat your weight right now. Your body is going to go through a lot of changes right now. Learn to love your self and put good things into it.

[@vanessaherr7016]

Damn, i’m 13, 5’5 and 98 lbs 😂

[@zoeluvr2484]

This was a really great video Kane! I liked how for you it wasn't just about looking good, but just trying to be in control, while still accepting where you were as well:)

[@FSAHKK]

He lost weight on a very low calorie diet, not by "drinking breakfast!!".. this is not a healthy sustainable diet, I'm pretty sure he increased his calories after starting going to the gym. But anyways, it's great that he lost weight! He looks great.

[@12markito]

FSAHKK well wouldn't height have something to do with it? I'm 5'3 and I have a small frame. That's probably my calorie intake at the moment to lose weight maybe even less.

[@FSAHKK]

Sergio Flores It depends on height, weight and activity level. I am 5 3" and the lowest healthy calorie count for me if I'm sedentary is over 1400 calories. I am a girl. He is a man, taller than me so he should not eat less than me (I am about 188 lb).

[@12markito]

FSAHKK Are there health risks? I meant let's be honest, his calorie intake in general is at least something. Especially for a non active person. I'm stuck in the 120's range and I still have more to lose and I don't want to work out. This calorie count thing makes no sense to me.

[@laura_rovetti]

I agree, low calorie diets are not a good choice, it's better to do it the natural and healthy way :)

Very inspiring, thank you for sharing your story. I really loved your comment about feeling safe in your body, that really spoke to me. Congratulations 🎉 on your great success. Hope to see more videos like this one :)

[@EvanYoungMusic]

I don't eat veggies either except for salads. I lost 20 pounds since January 1st. I am so proud of myself. I train 6 days a week for about 2 hours and then I cut out all fried, fast and processed foods along with only maybe 10-20g of sugar a day, if even. But macros has saved my life.

[@HokeyPokey81300]

I'm so proud of him and idk why

[@ragdx4040]

Because he isnt the one that is being sad but actually works and goes on a diet.

[@vincentdraaisma2916]

Kane without a hat just isnt kane

[@AriellePng]

Thank you Kane, that was really inspiring. I've been struggling with a fluctuating weight and been trying different things but so far nothing has really worked for me. Watching this just gave me the motivation to keep trying to find the diet/lifestyle that would work for me and encouraged me to do it out of love for my body, not hate. Thanks for sharing your story

[@hannahsullivan1590]

i LOVE this fitness movement in buzzfeed. For so long, they advocated for body positivity by saying it was okay to be overweight. Now, they're still advocating for body positivity, but they're going at it the right way this time. It makes me so happy to see all these people getting healthy, it's honestly so inspiring.

[@mkilany7603]

I always hated my body I was ashamed to take my shirt on the beach my low selfsteam made it hard for me to make friends I always thought everyone judging me whenever I go out I see people staring at me so I started extreme dieting I was eating less than 1000 calories per day and started to do insanity max 30 work out I lost 8 kilos in 2 weeks but I felt tired all the time and I almost died after fourth month when I fel down in the bathroom i was down for more than half hour when I woke up my mother was crying she hugged me I had to promise her I won't do extreme dieting again (I lied) after I lost 30 kilo I was 104 about 215 pound I'm not sure, I didn't feel any difference people were still looking at me so I figured out that my body wasn't the reason for my low selfsteam and it wasn't the reason I didn't have any friends it was me I was blocking myself from having friends because I was scared to speak with anyone I thought maybe no one wanted to hangout with me but how can anyone one ask me to hangout with him if I'm never out of my house the moral of the story don't waste your life caring how you think people see you because believe me it's all in your head it took me more than 5 years to know that don't repeat my mistakes

[@ellenjunhae8312]

I'm so proud of him! This video was really inspiring

[@willfudge8131]

i gained 30lbs 3-4 years ago when i had my first major depressive episode and i haven’t lost it since. i’m at college and i want to lose weight to feel and look better but i become overwhelmed with the choices when it comes to exercise and meal plans and what is actually sustainable while i’m at school. meal replacements like soylent or huel are interesting options especially for breakfast which is something i often skip all together during the semester and end up overeating for lunch and dinner. being able to eat something healthy, filling and being able to count my exact intake seems very useful.

[@nr5076]

Always start with calorie counting me personally managed to get down to 16,000 calories a day by not having seconds with each meal. (obviously depends on your diet but its a good place to start)

[@okbutlike4446]

I’ve always wanted to count my calories and cut down on how much i normally eat but when you’re a filipino, there are filipino dishes that i don’t know how many calories are in them. So i cant really use the app. sad.

[@seurn7801]

Brooooo yes. I'm like, how many calories does adobo even have?? Damn.. what I do is I just lessen my rice and eat more meat and vegetables.

[@aqua6angel]

What I do is I take the calorie information on all of the different components of the recipe, add it all up, then divide that by how many portions it serves, and boom you have your calorie estimate. If you don't have all of the calorie information to do that, you can also use Google to give you an idea so you're not guessing as blindly.

[@ellulturner]

Rachel J just eat porridge this drink isn't magic it's just calories in = calories out eat less calories than you use in a day it's fucking simple really this video was clearly just trying to sell the drink.

[@pearlmcj]

I'm planning on eating healthier and working out once I'm back in the States (on a study abroad program right now), because I'm so worried about the metabolism drop hitting me suddenly the way it has for a lot of people. I want to get used to watching while I eat and working out and staying fit while it's still a preventative measure against sudden weight gain, not to get rid of the weight once it's already hit me. I've also always been very self conscious of my tummy, and I just want to feel completely comfortable in my own body while I'm still young. Watching videos like this is really helping me feel motivated for the right reasons, thanks for the boost, Kane!

[@Screwsandrods]

Great Video and you look great! Thanks for explaining what worked for you so we could learn from you how to start losing weight in a healthy way and exercise to feel great, become flexible and look good!

[@LivingLovingLaughing]

I don't really comment on videos that much but for this, I said I must comment 1. for me, title is not a click bait maybe because I am aware of the term he used for the title and the context it was intended for. 2. I love the fact that you were going on and happy with yourself, with more or less weight. 3. Love the fact that you were doing this for yourself and not because you are pressured by others. 4. Love the fact that the people you kept around you were encouraging like you mentioned. 5. Loved the fact that your video was straight to the point and concise, lot of information in a short video 👍 KEEP IT UP 🤛🤛🤛

[@summerrose4824]

I honestly can't put into words how much I love Soylent. I was overweight, too, but had sort of the opposite problem that you did... my metabolism was slow to begin with due to genetics, but was downright crawling because I have sooooo much trouble making myself eat. I'd go entire days without eating - not on purpose, but just because I don't really get hungry and thinking about eating can actually make me nauseous sometimes. I'd eat at least once a day, but because I'd go so long without food, my body clung for dear life to each calorie I consumed, so my metabolism functioned at a glacial pace for the majority of my 23 years. I've never been obese, because I'm very active and have a naturally athletic build, but I've never been trim, either, and my resulting low self-esteem has been debilitating at times. About a year ago, I discovered Soylent and I can't say enough about it. I still eat about once a day, too, but I've added 2-4 shakes a day and I've lost about 30lbs. I'm at around 21% body fat now. I should also add that I don't work out... I'm very active, like I said, and spend ~10 or so hours on my feet every day for my job (which also involves a lot of heavy lifting) and commute on foot to school, but I'm by no means an athlete. Still, I'm now in the best shape of any woman in my family and I feel healthier than ever, both physically and mentally. It's SUCH a relief not to have to worry about food anymore and I really, really wish I'd found Soylent a long time ago.

[@neshanwonder]

I used to be short, now I'm tall, I don't know how this relates...

"I gained 10 pounds in 6 months " hmm I gain 10 pounds my eyeing those spicy chips any spicy sweet sour salty foods anything everything

[@ShannonTaoStudio]

I stopped counting calories half way through the month of June and just focused on incorporating as much vegetables as I can to each meal. Also increasing your water intake. Slowly your body, mind and even tastebuds start craving fresh produce. I no longer crave fried foods or ketchup chips because I know how it will affect my body. Mentally you have to keep that goal in mind and make sure you are ready to commit to a healthier lifestyle. Its not about overnight changes. Its about incorporating more wholesome and nourish meals to your days. I find making friends in the health and fitness industry helps to keep me motivated and on track. For exercise I've started taking kickboxing class which have made me feel sexy, lean and strong while getting my heart rate up to the fat burning zone. What I do is look at myself in the mirror and see how I look in clothing. Don't be afraid of building muscles and try to incorporate strength training into your life! Thanks for sharing your journey Kane! I agree. You have to be able to love yourself at every stage of your life, regardless where your body is at in the present. :)

[@slythprincess]

I've been dieting and working out for 3 weeks and 3 days and today I officially lost 10 lbs. My turning point was when I turned 30 this year, I couldn't believe that I was on blood pressure meds and a breathing machine for when I sleep. I plan on having children but I also wanted my body to be as healthy as possible to carry a life. My goal is to below 200lbs. Currently I'm at 233. Wish me luck to keep me motivated!💪❤
