[@BagznBirdz]

@@theglyph1795 you have bad days and weeks. It comes with the territory. I've been learning not to limit myself too much and f.e. I eat something good every day. Usually it's a couple of small marsmallows or a Snickers protein bar that I might sneak it in my diet early in the day (chop it up and have it on my morning porridge) or have one before I take a nap after I come home from work. One thing I noticed has helped me most is taking a long nap in the afternoon. I don't sleep enough during the night so I've gotten into a habit of trying to banish fatigue with sugar. Now I just sleep more, which means I have more energy, I have waaaay less food cravings and I eat three home cooked meals daily as I have the energy to meal prep and I also move more. And as Will said, if you eat something unhealthy it doesn't mean the end of the world and that the rest of your life is ruined because of it. It happens. You can always bounce back. Just don't blame and hate yourself for it as that will set you up for failure. Therapy and seeing a nutritional coach is a good way to get your new and improved life started. There's always a core reason to these kinds of problems and they are usually relatively easy to solve in the end.

[@gabriellesimoneau9958]

“Anti diet doesn’t mean anti healthy” is so true! my mom is a registered dietician that leans on the side of intuitive eating - she never told us to stop eating or to eat when we were not hungry, but we rarely ate or have unhealthy foods in our house(they were reserved for “special occasions”).

After having been told to finish my food for 18 years by my parents it has been difficult to learn to stop when I'm full. Many times that's around when I've finished a little over half of my portion. I'm slowly getting the hang of it. Next stop: intuitive eating.

[@Sirvalian]

@@BagznBirdz It's a good thing to tell your kids when they are still growing in height though.

[@BagznBirdz]

@@Sirvalian I think it's better to tell them to take a small break (have a chat about their day while you're at it) and then tell them to eat more if they're not full. We did have our problems with one of the kids leaving most of his food and then going for the rice krispies 15 mins later. This was fixed easily, as if he didn't eat enough he would have to leave his plate at the table and return to it when he was hungry again. Magically the food started to interest him again immediately. But we never forced him to eat.

[@troyburgess2355]

@@Sirvalian no its not something you should tell them, forcing your kids to eat isn't okay. not everyone needs the same portion sizes and some days they aren't as hungry. you should instead teach them to not eat past being full, teaches them that it's okay to not finish meals and they learn how much they actually want when making their own plates.

Disagree. I have no background in tracking calories or macros. I watched this video and was like: ‘people weigh peanut butter?’. I eat peanut butter pretty much everyday, as much as I like. I learned about intuitive eating from Abbey Sharpe’s videos. Intuitive eating is eating what you like and healing your relationship with food. My weight is healthy 👍

[@isabellaevens8334]

Yess

[@oscarsanabria5354]

I tracked calories and macros for almost 2 years. I got tired of being MyFitnessPal's slave and I stopped doing so almost 3 months ago. I still weight "critical" things like carbs or peanut butter and so on, but I no longer have a food diary. I think those 2 years counting led me to an "eye" scale so I usually pour the adequate portion size just by intuition. I don't have any "snacks" of processed foods (cookies, packets, Ice Creams etc) and I try to go with "real" food as much as I can. I've never felt better.

[@LeoMes01]

Yeah

[@ellyvatedaf]

Dude I can just eyeball some ingredients and make a meal and I can tell the calories in it within 10%

[@KarstenOkk]

You're saying you're eyeballing food except "carbs or peanutbutter" (which I take to mean fats in general). I mean, that's just tracking still. Not bad, but not exactly like intuitive eating. You can track what a healthy meal's calories are by just taking its source of carbs (like pasta, rice) and its source of fats (butter, olive oil, peanutbutter), and then maybe add 150-300 for the protein and the miscellaneous. You shouldn't be entering glasses of water, baby carrots and cucumbers into your food tracker, you should just try to ballpark those vegetable type foods imo, which can't add up to much more than 250 calories a day.

[@ApricotHensley]

So I was 240 I stopped eating sugar drinking sodas ect.. lost like 55lbs I'm 175 now but still a little chubby so I started counting macros for just a couple weeks now.. problem is it seems to have hurt my health more than help.. I was feeling the best shape of my life just eating good food but when I started adding in the extra protein and looking at macros.. I've been kinda groggy and gassey some days too

[@ey8767]

Same here. I am having health conditions due to low body fat and I had some signs of anorexia. I deleted all of the calorie-tracking apps on my phone and started intuitive eating. Of course, I have gained some weight. But the weight gain stopped at a certain point. You can live a healthy lifestyle without tracking calories.

people mistake intuitive eating for ‘letting yourself go’ but in reality when you give yourself the freedom to eat whatever you want it’s not going to be all bad you body will tell you it needs nutrition. if you keep says you can’t have something you’ll want it more

[@C.amooni]

4 years later , the problem with intuitive eating is it may work for some which is great but often times what I see as a fitness professional and nutrition specialist working with many different people , there are plenty who have little to no self control. Once they start they can't stop and they overly indulge in unhealthy foods. I personally like iifym since it gives you the freedom to eat mostly whole foods but also leaves room for a treat sometimes and you're within the required daily intake making it easier to manage weight. Ofcourse someone background and health conditions will come into play and another approach may work better but as a general consensus I believe it works quite well for most

[@sapodilla25]

My grandmother lived to 95, she was healthy and at a good weight till the very end, and she said to eat simple homemade meals in small portions a few times a day, don't fall in love with sugar. I agree with her in that making food in the kitchen really slows down your urge to eat everything in sight and makes you understand food better.

Hey Will, this will probably get lost in the abundance of comments BUT I’m really proud of you for trying intuitive eating. As a person who has dealt with an eating disorder myself, I know that it’s SO hard to feel as if you’re losing control of the amount you’re eating. Tracking calories is the alleged safety net that you’ve established for yourself. Because it seems to work so well for your balanced eating after the ED you’re gonna fear that nothing else will “work”. But in my opinion tracking calories and avoiding family dinners due to macro imbalance is still slightly ed-ish. So it’s a tremendously brave step to let go of that automated behavior for a whole week. Even though it might not seem as a super big thing for people who have never really struggled with that, I can tell you it really gives “people like us” a hefty peak in anxiety when it comes to letting go. Lots of love from Germany you big little skittle (don’t know why I said that but I wanted to say something funny at the end. Whoops, didn’t work out. Just like me )

"But in my opinion tracking calories and avoiding family dinners due to macro imbalance is still slightly ed-ish". It's kind of rude and dangerous to call other people's eating habits ED-ish even if it is just your opinion. Some people who have struggled with an ED in the past would never want to see a comment like that and they could really obsess over it and spiral. These things aren't inherently bad just like intuitive eating isn't inherently good. Will has found what works for him and it's tracking his macros. You don't have to like it or agree with it, but it's still rude to compare that behaviour to that of an ED.

Intuitive eating to me means paying attention to how you feel with the food you consume. Over time I've changed my diet and refined it to one which allows me to feel really good all the time. I feel fresh and full of energy. What we crave is also different from what we need. The microbiome in our guts has a major role in what foods seem appetizing. Based upon what you eat consistently is what types of bacteria will inhabit your body. Overtime, eating foods that lead to health and well-being will cultivate a microbiome that demands these foods. At this point intuitive eating becomes really easy because all you crave is what really benefits you.

[@prod.chadito594]

I know this is an older video. But I tracked for 3.5 years religiously and it became more of an unhealthy relationship with food.

I’ve been eating intuitively throughout losing weight consistently during the last year and here is one of my biggest takeaways: Whenever I eat something, I eat until I’m mostly full…I give myself at least 30 minutes of a buffer to determine if I’m still hungry or not…sometimes, my brain doesn’t tell me I’m truly full until it’s too late and I’ve already overeaten…so, I try to be patient with myself and give a little time for my brain to catch up…sometimes I am truly full and I stop eating…other times I’m still really hungry so I have another serving/a snack to fill me up…I’m sure this might sound so simple to some ppl, but I have struggled with overeating since childhood…this was a big breakthrough for me 😊

Yeah his videos are amazing. They’re informative and also veryyy entertaining which is the best combo

Diet is what you eat, this is how you eat. Unless you actually meant all the same foods, then my b.

"I'm not a 'know when to stop eating' kinda smart" and "Leftovers are for quitters" both need to be turned into t-shirts ASAP. EDIT - add "It takes time to get wet" to that list.

[@hannahvickery7744]

Add "it's someone's birthday out there somewhere"

Leftovers are for when I make too much chilli I eat it the next day.

You inspired me I was over 100 pounds overweight and you got me out of the depression

[@neringaCD]

I've been binge watching Will's content in the past few days, I'm so glad KZbin has recommended me his channel! As I'm currently trying to lose weight and I'm tracking my calorie intake as well as macros, I learned so much from his channel and challenges he does are so entertaining to watch! This channel has motivated me so much to get back to my workout-healthy eating routine after recent covid recovery, that I am again becoming a geek in this field. Nutrition is such an interesting topic and requires a lot of learning about your own body and mind, this is so interesting! Keep it going! 🙏

“Leftovers are for quitters”😂

[@beans5972]

“I tried intuitive eating for a day” remember when we did that daily?

[@sydnisimmerson2773]

I used intuitive eating to help with my binge eating disorder and it helped so much! I actually lost weight so it’s different for everyone

[@Alina-vt2hk]

This was an amazing and informative video. I like how you truly took a non bias and open minded approach and also did your research on how to do it best before you started.

[@marjoriedubois5198]

Just an idea ... You should do a follow-up video on intuitive eating and talk about if or how this changed your habits! I'd love to know! :)

[@clairyboots.]

Yeah just going by his videos I think he has a much healthier relationship with food these days!

[@eazyproductions3343]

I only started watching you a couple days ago and you’ve easily became one of my favorite KZbinrs. Would be awesome to meet you one day!

[@varung.ramakrishnan2728]

This is the only honest fitness channel. Don’t change.

The effort in editing in these videos are amazing

This is so far my favourite video of yours! I've started my diet journey a couple months ago, so I'm tracking calories (often being shocked at how snacks i used to eat are really high in calories!) and I'm really happy to be aware of what i eat and how much I eat. But as you've said, I also don't see myself tracking calories for the rest of my life, so once I reach my goal physique and stay there for a while, I might try out intuitive eating as well! I really enjoyed watching you having fun and hearing your honest thoughts!

[@alcapoontangmooseinthepoos2310]

The only way I can lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way is without tracking my calories. So far I’ve lost almost 30 pounds without tracking one single calorie. This whole time I felt guilty for not tracking anything (and that I would eventually screw up, or my luck would run out). However, I just realized that this was a real thing! It’s important to still be aware with what you’re putting in your body! And like you said in the video, be careful when you’re hungry!

[@reverethepatriot1776]

I tracked macros for about 6 months with the idea in mind I would move into intuitive eating. Tracking was essential so I could understand portion sizes, balanced diet, where my diet was lacking, and I also learned the difference between emotional eating and correctly interpreting my bodies cues. It was like the same thing after I was working out consistently for 9 months I learned the difference between just not wanting to go and going anyway and my body truly needing rest. If someone is starting out, just give it time and be patient

[@mufasa2005]

I use to count calories when I first started but then I got obsessive over the numbers to the point that it became to stressful and boarding on unhealthy . And it made me unhappy. So i started intuitive eating and I’m so much happier for it. I eat when I’m hungry. I east what I crave. All I really control is the portions and I try to lean towards healthy foods or at least be balanced if I ate unhealthy. I really like it. I think my weight is fine and it’s overall so much less stressful.

[@Bryyyb_ASMR]

I feel like this week was a turning point for Will and I am 100% here for it

[@FnVRGaming]

My partner of 9 years is a Dietitian and LOVES mindful eating, and from what I've learnt (I'm a Personal trainer) ... It looks like you did a tremendous job for such a new and short attempt at it. Well done! Great content :)

Watching this while fasting for Ramadan isn’t the best idea but time just passes super fast while watching you so it balances out

[@aamagnus52]

I recently found you this quarantine, and I can confidently say you probably are my favourite youtube atm. I’m not even big on fitness, but you’re so entertaining I still watch

[@jameslee-hl7rm]

saw this 5 seconds after it was posted lol

[@custardpup6385]

I completely agree that intuititve eating is a great way to live once you have met your goals and tracked your calories long enough to roughly eyeball them. Once I hit my goals, I will definitely try intuitive eating long-term as even though right now calorie tracking is an amazing tool for me, nobody wants to be tracking calories every day for the rest of their life. Intuitive eating seems far more sustainable but it's only that way because you build up a good understanding of nutrition and portion size from calorie tracking.

[@livlederberg4304]

this intro is everything and more

[@josephinejrgensen7303]

I have done "intuitive eating" (normal eating) all of my life, never had weight problems or anything, I just know when I am hungry and for the most I eat healthy. I have truly never counted calories.

[@harrisonthecarguy3734]

I have lost 37 pounds over 3 months, the first 2 and a half months I was starving myself, going way too hard on my body and just not being healthy. Intuitive eating ended up helping me greatly and even though I'm losing weight a bit slower I'm always satisfied and still getting results.

[@HenryHoolington]

This is the kind of diet I naturally started doing and overall it has worked out. I am very good throughout the day with 3 filling meals though I always get too hungry to sleep before bed so I added a "4th" meal snack being cottage cheese or turkey sausage. Also I take no supplements or protein powder whole foods only

[@arieljordanes2440]

You're a brilliant spirit!! Love your videos, highly entertaining!! Also Love your sense of humor!! 😆 Thanx 4 all your terrific info and the Most High GOD bless you richly!!🙏

[@TheOcean21]

Ollie is great. He is the source of knowledge and wisdom, for this KZbin channel 😂👌

[@ryennewilkes5520]

I’m noticing a lot of people in the comments who are uneducated about what intuitive eating actually is. If you’re in tune with your body’s cues, you don’t gain weight - significantly at least. Intuitive eating is what children do naturally, most adults have emotions attached to food, as well as minor or major disordered habits and mentalities when it comes to their nutrition. To those in the comments saying they gained 100 lbs “intuitive eating”, it proves that you in fact were NOT intuitive eating. It’s very difficult to learn to listen to your body, and it’s the end goal of eating disorder recovery that is very difficult to get to because a lot of people have no idea what emotions and cues feel like in their body before automatically turning to food. I highly recommend any of Evelyn Tribole’s books to anyone interested in learning more about this. Intuitive eating changed my life.

[@dianalove539]

Ryenne Wilkes yesssss I agree

[@realstreetjesus1953]

How do children NOT have emotions towards food? How many kids out there don't want to eat anything except candy and dino nuggets?

[@foofa__loofa1271]

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@ryennewilkes5520]

@@realstreetjesus1953 their palettes aren’t fully developed in that regard, but notice how kids naturally stop when they are full. A lot of us lose that ability somewhere along the way. For example, I grew up with my mom driving to a fast food restaurant after almost every explosive fight she had with my dad. Things like this are what teach our kids to reach for food as emotional solutions rather than satiating hunger.

[@ksstar9719]

I’m so glad that you made this. I can see your anxiety building the further it goes and like that’s how I feel rn. I’m supposed to be recovering from covid at maintenance but I’ve been eating at a deficit and doing cico and macro tracking for months now to try to lose weight and the thought of intuitively eating is terrifying. I also used to suffer from anorexia so I’m worried I’ll binge then starve myself and relapse. It’s been 2 years since a relapse so I’m trying really hard not to. You’re an inspiration! Keep it up!

[@StealingEmily]

[@sarahnunes3064]

I feel like this is one of the best videos for intuitive eating! Thank you for doing a video like this! Such a good video to watch and very informative!

[@darkbeam912]

I have gone back and literally watched every single one of your videos! I am obssessed with your videos(and your arms.) I don't follow any health/fitness channels but you make these very enjoyable to watch. Keep it up! :)
