Sara Ali Khan on Body Positivity | Everything WRONG with our Generation

[@bhavikashah7065]

People really don't understand how much binge eating speaks about your emotional health and stress levels. I've been at this point also and found myself feeling if I've crossed 75kgs how much ever I weigh it does not matter. What helped me was understanding that eating healthy and exercising is NOT just about how you look. It's about how you feel, your energy levels, your sleep, and your ability to manage stress and life!

[@tulsidhara7413]

very true

[@sabeeen_01]

It's so trueeee. My Mother says, Lose weight to look good and feel good. My Father says You look good now you have to feel good. And that reduces my stress alsom

[@sauravkumardubey8349]

I was 99kg in March 2022 at 5 11 height... I got serious about my health... I was Lucky enough to come across zealocity and a few other really good health professionals on KZbin. Now I have come down to 77kg .. I have been maintaining this weight for 4 months.. I feel positive.. I eat junk mindfully... Mindful eating and regular physical activity is the key to success

[@shrutigollamudi7959]

I want to share my experience with mental health, ED and Body Dismorphia. All my life I’ve been on the thinner side and the occasional eating out and all never actually affected my weight. I was always +or - 3 kgs of my ideal weight. Then almost 8 years back I started getting into trekking which in turn motivated me to get fitter, so I went to gym and focused on nutrition (and goddam protein) and for many years I was the most ideal version of fitness. I was actually very proud of it. Then around 3 years back I went through 2 really traumatic experiences in one after the other. My mental health was really fragile, I went into depression, had anxiety attacks often and every small thing used to send me into panic mode. And because it was also during the first and second wave of covid, I used to not go to gym. I had no motivation either so I used to drown myself in work. I used to work, order food every other day and eat. I got so addicted to eating junk that I used to smuggle the swiggy and Zomato parcels home so my parents wouldn’t see and scold me. The thing is I knew what I was doing to my body but I didn’t care. I only cared about the momentary comfort it provided me. And due to no in person interactions with friends, my mental health just got worse. I even tried to watch motivational videos and stuff, but they just made me feel even worse. And because of stress eating (aka overrating), for the first time in my life I became fat. To be honest, I hated the way I looked and every time I ate junk, I used to hate myself even more and still continued anyway. I used to sometimes have these bouts of motivation to change my habits, so I bought the cult home workout package and would do it for a week, but even a small situation used to have me overthinking and panicking and I used to immediately lose motivation to workout for months together and this cycle repeats every 3-4 months. Now, after two years, things got a little better, I surrounded myself with supportive friends (my family was also supportive), I healed myself mentally (although I still sometimes get panic and anxiety but no longer in depression). Stopped being toxic positive but rather more realistic. Stopped hating my body but instead looking at it as it is. I even started consistently working out. If I miss a couple of days, it’s okay, go the next day. I started travelling which also had a lot of positive impact on me. I also still eat junk occasionally, but in limit and don’t punish myself for it. It’s been a year since I’m on my healing journey and I have learnt a few lessons. In life, you are faced with a lot of ups and downs coz we are only human. Your body also changes coz you’re only human. If you hate your body and hence work out or diet, you are destined to fail coz your whole premise is bullshit. Work on your body only because you love yourself. Don’t focus on the numbers on the weighing scale, but rather focus on getting stronger. Also, being kind and compassionate with others works wonders on your mental health.

Wow, more power to you

[@gassyalways]

Very nice comment

[@nancyyadav285]

So proud of you sis! You go girl.

[@4cutaatmaaram]

👍👍. The mental health reasons and the binge eating is a vicious cycle. Both need to be addressed if the person is unable to loose weight and stick to a plan.

[@Keirats]

8:16 I’m also Sara bro 🙁✌🏽I don’t binge on any other junk food but the late night pizzas. I actually used to eat less because I was so ignorant about nutrition. For the past 2 years I have skipped my breakfasts, drank venti size Starbucks twice a day and didn’t cared about my health at all because I was so consumed by my work and studies. Flexible nutrition is the only way to go. I’m trying to figure out my nutrition and your videos are true bliss. 🫶🏽Thank you for sharing your knowledge for free.💜

I suffer from IR-PCOS and losing weight has always been super difficult for me. I remember when I was in 7th grade, I totally stopped eating yet didn't get any results. I was overweight asf and had so much facial hair that everyone would make fun of me Finally, after a migraine diagnosis, my neurologist said that I need to lose weight to minimize the triggers and I reluctantly signed up for yoga classes. It's been 6 years to that and my 14 y.o self would freak out if she saw me now. Working out totally reversed my IR-PCOS and my migraines. I lost 80% of my hair at 14 and almost became bald. Dermatologists said that I would lose all my hair by 20 (as a woman that was very difficult to hear) and that I will need to use minoxidil for a lifetime. Now my hair is long and thick and I don't even use minoxidil. Idk how it happened but I think a good diet and exercise reversed my problems

[@saane204]

Omg! Kudos to you. I’m also IR and trying to be consistent with my lifestyle goals

[@shwetaghosh6193]

Thank you Sir for this talk. I too loved how Sara opened up and spoke about all of it.. Also, I wont say I've been obese, but there was a point when I looked at myself thinking, dude is this really who you wanna be like, look like when you have the power to become so much stronger and fitter. Bachpan mai I was the fastest kid in class, I was lean, but I was fit, and I grew well. The moment YOU yourself begin to process stuff, it gives so so much perspective, and I'm so thankful that I came across this channel, maybe universe sending some signal or algorithm, whatever it is..I feel better and fitter, motivated these days❤️

[@Zealocity]

I'm glad! More power to you

[@vishhhh.]

Hyperpalatable foods have put me in a binge eating disorder right now. (As diagnosed by the doc) Trying my best to get out of it, but the negativity (mainly due to weight gain) that i feel struggling with an ED is real. I hope therapy helps, and i wish to have normal eating habits, and healthy relationship w food again 🙁

[@zara__9018]

he liked your comment but didn't reply 💀 side note: look back and notice how far you've come once you acknowledge it'll make you feel better about the progress you've made and kudos to you for losing kgs

[@sunshine-h4e]

Please tell how did you do this Please tell😢😢😢😢❤

[@yamininatures2969]

Thank you.... Because of you I always feel motivated 😊😊I truly agree with you because I also lost 15 kg and now I'm in the process it's really hard to handle my mind sometimes it feels like damn eat what you want 😂😂 but if you love yourself then you have to reward your body by helping you to be fit 😊

[@Zealocity]

I am grateful for your kind words. Keep staying healthy 💛

[@pratikshapawar8834]

Will you please share me what you did and how you managed to lose weight I have PCOD and I also want to lose weight

[@Rhea6560]

I agree that you need to eat good and exercise! But trust me, being a pcod patient, I've tried it all and it did not help even a little! I used to eat so less, i used to exercise! But it did not help me reduce weight, Infact it just made me lose my confidence! I even gained more inches! I went a gynac, u changed gynac, finally i found a gynac who understood my issues! She put me on meds! I am doing so much better! I am losing weight too! I do not have eat poorly! I feel better! So instead of blaming yourself, maybe go to a doctor, get to the root cause of it! But again don't listen to the doctors blindly! I stopped listening to my doctor when she said that rice is worst! Whereas i can't digest wheat well! So do what's good for your body and see if there's a underlying disorder for which you could get medication!

[@tulsidhara7413]

hey, just wanna put my pov, what sara said was extremely extremely relatable to me, bhai maine bhi like haa 55 hai 60 kg then 65...aagye to kya hi ho jaega (for the height and age i am 60 is overweight), and really the thing is that,now i have faced and still facing a lot of mental health issues, so food like burgers pizza's brownies coke & watching them w/ some good movie/show reallyy calms me down. it feels like an escape to me,i know there are alternative things for this i can go for a walk or do some hobby. but the thing i dont like going out that much since the lockdown and dont really have any hobbies, so i come back to this binge eating(it is the easier part lets be honest). yes i have realized that this is highly highly wrong, have faced many stomach and metabolism issues, but im trying. still havent completely gotten rid of binge eating, but i am trying to control myself daily. i can feel the poor quality of my life and the just sort of feel the unhealthy-ness, my sleep pattern is also not that great over all to keep it short my lifestyle is the worst in all areas, sleep, food, physical activity etc. at last all i am saying is we gotta try man. gotta be better. thats it, if there is any advice/help i highly appreciate it

[@QueeringRadzz]

I'm trans masculine and non binary with gender dysphoria. I want a far less curvy physique and I know body positivity doesn't come easy because dysphoria isn't choice. But I have tried and never got into the dieting trap. And being skinny is also dysphoria inducing. But what matters is lifestyle. If you're trans and gonna start hormones, you need to be more committed which does not mean stay away from food but have a discipline. Like have your goddamn protein and work out!!

[@QueeringRadzz]

actually for all people, cis, trans/enby and more.

[@simranjain5758]

Hey great video! I wanted to know about the plant protein you suggested in your description (bgreen). I'm a little skeptical about it but I still ordered because it's your suggestion.

[@samruddhidamle8988]

Very informative as always ❤

[@jamesstramer5186]

It takes a little time for your appetite to reset and adapt to lowered bodyweight levels. I used to be 90 kg and dropped to about 68 kilos over 3 years. Yet my appetite used to be high and I used to be pretty hungry for long periods. But after maintaining 68 kilos for about a year's time, my hunger levels diminished and I am able to maintain the lower bodyweight very effortlessly.

Dude i love u but theres not a snowball's chance in hell that you put on 20-25 kg of muscle. maybe 20-25 kg of weight but not muscle. ud need to be on peds plus have freak genetics to put that much on.

[@Zealocity]

Yea I get your point. In the flow, I said 25 kgs of muscle, but it was definitely some fat and bone density weight too.
