My wife had a weight number fixation, and by having her change the scale to kilograms, it *completely* changed her outlook. Now she was no longer fixated on some number, because as an American she had this Freedom unit lb number burnt into her brain by 17 magazine or cozmo or whatever, but by just switching from pounds to kilograms, she was able to just be like "okay, I'm trying to lose 250 g every 5 days" or whatever, and the number on the scale wasn't really a goal she was shooting for anymore. She started finally just looking for momentum until she looked the way she liked. Small tip, may work for some people that have number fixations to switch to a different measurement system

I’m from a psychology background. I have always thought the psychology of losing weight is 100X harder than the actual science or method. Losing weight is easy. Overcoming the mind games of losing weight is almost all of the actual work. I didn’t lose weight until I spent real time trying to understand my emotional issues around food and weight first. Took me a year. Once I got the crap out of the way, it was pretty easy.

As someone who doesn't really struggle with weight loss and never had big emotional issues around weight, I would agree. To me, losing weight is pretty easy. I follow a calorie deficit, and yeah I get a bit hungry, sometimes I get impatient about results, but ultimately it's no big deal, I can mostly stick to the diet and get results over a few weeks or months. But I see so many other people really struggle with dieting. But why is it hard for them? It's certainly not that complicated: Eat a bit less than normal, and tolerate some hunger while you keep doing that. It's not the most fun, but it's so simple. Maybe some part of the problem is fad diets confusing people about what actually causes weight loss, but I think the bigger problem is with the psychological issues, which some people have way more of than others.

I finally came to realization that I look my best at 200lbs. Especially when I am just very strong and farm grown as they say. I can look at myself and start to love myself. I want to be healthy and feel good. I dont care what my number is, as long as I get stronger and feel better thats a win for me now.

I don't think I've ever felt more "seen" by a fitness type video. I had an eating disorder in my early 20s and I was obsessed with the scale. I was able to overcome it, but I have struggled with losing weight off and on. I have tried counting calories, macros, points, steps, you name it. Anything with numbers sends me into the same eating disorder headspace I was in all those years ago. As a result I have been feeling like weightloss isn't possible for me because I get so anxious when I try counting stuff. This gives me so much hope.

Personally, another reason tracking all of this can feel "icky" is because it can kind of feel like you're treating yourself like a computer or a robot and food as simply a resource, which can feel inhumane and kind of like a disservice. A lot of people treat food as something that brings people together, something that has a lot of nostalgia and emotion and connection tied to it, so tracking and aligning yourself with statistics around nutrients can feel like a threat to that.

@@sebastianblake6119 If it helps I'm in the same boat, I'm already at a 1000 ish calorie deficit but subconsciously don't want to hit my 2000 calories per day so I often fall short. Here's the thing I learned this month that was HUGE. It's not sustainable when you're at 1000 calorie deficit, you need every calorie out of that 2000 set for the day. 10 out of 14 days I'll be anywhere up to 200 calories short of the 2000 and I get really hungry, and after a week I have no energy at all and my partner tells me my mood is changing or my energy is low. Now this is just what works for me so take it with a pinch of salt, but I do and will continue to struggle to hit whatever number of calories I'm allowed per day so my solution is this: (Maintenance is 3000 calories, goal is 2000 calories) I actually eat around 1800 per day - that's a weekly deficit of 1400 calories FROM MY 1000 calorie daily deficit, it's not healthy. To fix this I've added a refeed twice per week where I can have an additional 700 calories and this removes the phycological issue I have of daily calorie targets. When my brain knows it's a refeed to catch up on calories, there's something about that my brain understands and is okay with. So I'm 2000 calories daily except twice per week, on any day, where I can have 2700. This works amazingly well because I can either reintroduce foods I can't currently eat like cereal or toast, because 2000 calories isn't enough to have those foods as snacks whilst eating proper meals, or I can continue as normal but have a REFEED meal, not a cheat meal, there's a difference. I've been clean eating for 3 months now but yesterday I had a pizza from Papa Johns which I easily fit in to the 2700 calories, it was dinner and then a few slices for breakfast the next day. Obviously the better answer is - if I'm already at 1000 calorie deficit, which is around the maximum safe/healthy amount for 1-2lbs per week loss, I should be eating 2000 calories per day (for me and my body based on BMR and TDEE). But because I can't seem to do that these refeed meals level me back out to 2000 calories per day over the week, there's no cheat meals because the calories are accounted for and are a part of my planned deficit. I hope this helps anyone else who has a similar problem to me, I could set a calorie goal of 3000 per day and I still wouldn't eat it😂 Refeed is definitely the best way I've found to keep me going, keep my hormones in check, mood up, energy levels good. If you think this might be for you, just remember you can't leave too many days between your refeeds because 5 days at 1200 calorie deficit is too long and you will start having mood swings, low energy, you'll stop exercising and all sorts. 2 refeeds works for me, but you may need more - so instead of having two 700 extra calorie days, try 3 days with an extra 466 calories if your energy is too low or your mood is affected. Good luck everyone! Mike if you're reading this, thank you for everything you do - and I'd LOVE to hear your opinion on how I'm dealing with this and if it's good advice for those in a similar position to me. - Luke

Calling yourself/someone a "fat slob" or "fat piece of shit" is 1) cringe, have some (self) respect and 2) builds a terrible relationship with food/ skews healthy habits. Positivity is possibly the best thing you can do to lose weight. In my experience, it made me feel like i could finally climb out of the hell I had made for myself and gave me the confidence to persist.

Cool video doc, and good timing. My partner recently decided to lose weight. Previously she tried fads (to my annoyance) and she could do it. It was always temporary. Over years she has steadily gained weight. Nothing extreme, but recently she was quite upset by it. She was upset by the weight also! Tracking macros is off the cards. She actually is too busy, and it's an unnecessary hurdle. I started her off with breakfast. I made her two types of breakfast. Finely balanced, nutritious and filling. She snapped it up, and after a month, it was the absolute standard. A habit she doesn't even have to think about. The best part? She is less hungry throughout the day, and no longer snacks in the evening and afternoon. Bonus: she was losing (on average, scales didn't really appear until recently) 1lb a week, by eating a hearty breakfast! So, she mentions food again, talking about weight loss. Next step, lunch. To be fair, I only discussed options with her, and she came up with some easy lunch ideas that both feed her, and maintain her hunger levels. She did it herself. After a couple of weeks, and up until recently she was dropping 1.5 to 2lb a week. She hasn't been hungry, eating solid meals. Losing weight. Now she has seen that she can in actual fact control her bodyweight, she has been bolting on other things. Everything is sugar free - easy win. She doesn't touch alcohol or wine at all in the week, has a glass or two on the weekend or events - easy win. The biggest thing I saw, was that she adopted a mindset of small but long term changes. Changes that will last a lifetime, and be easy. New habits. Not drinking low calorie soup as lunch and dinner for weeks on a time. I actually put it down to one of your videos that you posted at the beginning of the year, where you basically slammed "new year new me" and resolutions. You warned heavily against dramatic sudden changes, or excessive amounts of change. So I bided my time, then paraphrased your video (mainly by removing the stuff that would offend her or weird her out). Not sure where this is going, but thanks Mike 👍

I track nothing that goes into my mouth, except for keeping a rough mental count on protein to make sure I'm over 150g a day. It's just too tiresome to constantly try to figure out all the nutritional info for all home cooked meals I eat. Instead I weigh myself every single day and log it into excel. That way I can see what the trend line is doing over the last month or two. It's not hard to just adjust my eating accordingly from there. It's not like my calories have to be perfect daily, just good enough over time. I'm currently on a 12-week cut and planned to loose about 400-500g a week. I can do that without counting calories so long as I know my weight. Looking at my spreadsheet right now, it tells me I've lost an average of 541g a week over the last 6 weeks, so I'm a little ahead at the moment, but I know that'll slow down over the next 6 weeks as my body fat goes down. So long as you can accept reality on an ongoing basis, it's not rocket science.

In 2019, I weighed 210-215 lb and I decided it was time to lose it. Getting obsessed with that number was what fueled me. The more I saw it decrease, the harder I worked to see it decrease more. Once I hit about 175-180, I even started running 5 miles every single day. I hate running. But I got down to my goal weight of 150. Then when I stopped running (bc 5 miles/day isn’t exactly sustainable for most people), I had PERPETUAL anxiety that I was going to gain weight. It never went away. I did start to gain weight about a year ago, and the deep wounding i feel when I see the scale now is insane, esp because there’s the added feeling that I “failed.” That plus the fact that I hate running has made getting back in shape some insurmountable goal.

Sure. It takes way longer to burn calories compared to running. But I can walk for 8 hours and burn a good chuck of calories whereas no human alive can run for 8 hours.

Thanks for addressing this topic. I lost 120 pounds strictly from dieting, but picked up a nasty binge-restrict eating disorder along the way that made me gain about 40 of those pounds back. It's something I actively went and seeked treatment for with a therapist for, which helped a lot and I'm still navigating trying to lose not just the weight I regained but a little bit more while knowing I have the freedom to have treats or enjoy meals out without feeling guilty.

This “no tracking” approach worked for me and eventually I did get comfortable with measuring. In the past, getting on the scale was too harsh of a reality check if I knew I had “let myself go”. I didn’t want to know how far I’d gone as that would further demotivate me at the time. The extra effort to track macros, steps, weight, and change your diet can be so overwhelming, especially given you haven’t built up the habits (if you had, you likely wouldn’t be in the position you’re in). The lack of tracking was helpful in getting started with one small change at a time. Eventually, I grew to track macros, steps, and weight but it was when I felt I could handle each thing.

I'm really grateful for this! I'm a woman and have struggled with eating disorders in the past. I still have a really hard time with the numbers exactly like you described. It puts me into an emotional roller coaster, and feeling like I'm doing better the less I eat, which just spirals down into obsession, starvation, binging and a fucked body image. 10 years ago I weighed 180lbs and was determined to lose that weight to get back down to the 130lbs I weighed back in my teens. But I did it all the wrong ways, lost the weight in bursts of starvation, and then eventually gained it all back. Now I'm back at 180lbs, again wanting to get back down to roughly 130lbs. (Fyi I'm 5'6 tall so 130lbs would put me at a bmi of 21.) But I really can't weigh myself excessively, or count calories daily, without it just triggering those eating disorder demons of my past. Because back then I did weigh myself obsessively every day and jotted the number down to each decimal in a notebook, and I obsessively counted every single calorie for each of my meals and every drink I had. I was determined to eat as little as possible and going above 500 calories in a day wrecked my world. It went to the point where eating ten slices of cucumber made me anxious. Eventually I did break that mindset and settled back into not giving much of a shit about what I ate or what I weighed. But then I found myself back at 180lbs, or actually closer to 185lbs, and being kinda bitter about it. Like I'm back to square one, and it was really all for nothing. I did actually start losing weight again on my own now, doing basically what you're saying here. I weigh myself only once or twice a month to get a rough idea of where I'm at. I counted my calories only once, to check how much of a surplus I was generally dealing with prior to starting. Then I figured out roughly what I should be eating for it to be around 1500-1700 calories without changing my diet too much. And then I just stick to that. I never eat past the point of feeling full, I avoid high fat foods, I only allow myself small pieces of cake once or twice a week, etc, but otherwise eat pretty much the same as ever since recovering from my eating disorder. And it is paying off. I must not be having as much as a 500 calorie deficit as I've only lost half the amount of weight I intended, but that's fine. After 2 months I've gone down 1 clothing size, which I back in my eating disorder days learned is roughly 5lbs. So I must be having an average of 250 calorie deficit, which is a great start! And imo a much healthier approach than to eat as little as possible and obsessing about numbers. I do plan on continuing like this until I get to a point of needing to make some kinda adjustments. Then re-check my bmr and re-calculate how much I should be eating, with a new plan. Maybe by next month or so, if things continue this well. I'll eat at maintenance (basically means eating more freely but still avoiding excess unhealthy foods and still not eating beyond feeling full) when I feel I need a break. I already had one such period due to vacation and it went fine, I did not regain what I had already lost the prior month. Basically I do lightly push myself to deal with the numbers at least just a little bit, to help ensure I'm not going completely off track, because I can count calories and look at the scale as long as it's not often or very regularly. I have to be able to forget about it in between in order to stay sane. But also doing the occasional weighing and calorie counting does actually help boost me to feel secure that I'm going in the right direction. Also, I hope that by pushing myself just a little to look at those kinda numbers again, it might help me defeat those old eating disorder demons for good, which would be a bonus. Also, I absolutely refuse to believe that just because I've had an eating disorder, I can't possibly lose weight in a healthy way. That is utter bullshit that some people say, and I'm not here for it. I believe I just need to be a little more careful and more observant, and that's all.

Thanks for this. I'm a 49 year old female hitting menopause. My height is 166 cm and I weigh 68 kgs which suggests I'm getting slightly overweight based on my BMI. I've been through silly diets and such, but realised consistent workout and a healthy, balanced, but not super strict diet is the key on a long run. I do both strength and endurance training, feeling physically quite fit. I can run 5k in 33mins, bike 35 km in 80-90 mins and pretty much can row on the ergometer for an indefinite amount of time. Those numbers are not super impressive for an athlete, but in my age group I consider them rather impressive. Yet, I looked at the scale just yesterday and it made me feel like vomiting. The number on the display is what I call gaslighting...like how I see myself in the mirror (not too bad) and a number that suggests I'm being kinda fat. Today's beauty standards are so extremely damaging, comparing our bodies to others will take us nowhere and yet, we're being forced doing it so. I feel sorry for the young generation, who grow up surrounded by fake influencers throwing proper BS at them on a daily base. I mean,, if those numbers freak me out so much and I'm actually aware, I just can't imagine how let's say a teenager with a developing body could feel completely out of it. I love your approach and explanations, again, thanks for helping us out with your sanity, when the world seems to be going all fake and completely insane. Scales don't often represent reality, as muscle weighs more than fat, so my motto is as long as I feel fit and healthy, fuck the scale. Really, health is all that matters.

I used to be a 190lbs when i was 18 (emotional eater), then went to uni and developed an eating disorder...went down to 120 within a few months. I tracked what i was eating but basically tried not to go above 100kcal (just craziness). I then suffered from bulimia for about 4 years until i met my husband. And just staid a healthy weight without any ED. I was then diagnosed with crohns disease and lost some weight. After realizing i could control it with excercise i started working out and became quite fit. I just had our 4th baby. Bounced back quite easily every time. Since its our last im really eager to get into the best shape. Anyhow i just eat what i want (we cook all meals at home from scratch and dont do fast food, soda and stuff). I do eat a lot of carbs, that ones for sure 😅...im honestly hesitant to record my intake and count calories because it really reminds me of my ED days.

"can you lose weight without tracking" No. The reason people get to the weight they are is because they don't track and have no idea about how many calories is in the food they're eating. They need to consciously eat less, which means they will be tracking. No you don't need to track calories, but you do need to track how much food you eat. While you might not understand how many calories you eat, you do understand how much food you eat and you know you need less of it. Feeling icky about going on a scale has no relevance here. I felt "icky" about taking progress pics, so I didn't do it. I was still able to lose weight. Weighing yourself is kinda unimportant, especially if you track your calories. Obviously you'd need to do an initial weigh in so you can work out how many calories you need a day (if you're going the counting calories route), but if you're going the "I'm just gonna eat less route", you don't need to know your weight because you aren't going to be doing any math with it. The only significance of weighing yourself is knowing what you're doing is successful, but there are other ways you can know you're being successful, you'll visually see your body change, you'll feel a lot better and other people will complement you and say you're losing weight. At the end of the day if someone comes in and refuses to weigh themselves because it makes them feel icky, they weren't gonna succeed anyway. If you wanna take their money knowing that, well do whatever you need to do to keep them paying for as long as possible.

"Genetically determined psychology"... Unless there's an already diagnosed psychiatric disorder, in addition to said disorder being prevalent in the clients family history, the "mostly genetically determined psychology" is overstating the impact of their genetics and understating the impact of the client's developmental environment. To make the claim confidently you'd first have to identify the genes determining a "healthy" self-image, then find a person with these genes who was reared in an environment not conducive to a positive body image that nevertheless came to overcome such environmental conditions and resolved to developing a healthy body image. I'd be curious to know if you have an resources alluding to such.

Losing weight is actually really easy and hard at the same time. It's really easy, because if you just get rid of all the fast food, sweets and snacks that you normally eat, you WILL lose weight. But the hardest part is actually having a will power to not eat them again. You will get used to not eating them after a few months, but before that, you need to force yourself to not snack.
