The guy who authored the book deserves respect. He lost his siblings and instead of just being sad he decided to try to make a difference in their honor.
It's okay to just be sad too. Losing a close one is hard stuff so deal with
@@MarianaPires-yz1nx im sure he was sad and it was his sadness that drove him to write the book. positivity usually comes out of negative situations
Ya his strength is that he turned this into something positive.
@@r.8902Exactly! Getting cancer made me a better person in the end. I don't recommend it though... XD.
/salute
this is how the rest of the world imagines all of the USA to be like.
talking about that...@@knux5796
It is not?
Personally attacked huh lmao@@knux5796
Well the rest of the world isn't as bad as America is in terms of obesity, so honestly if shit like this is happening in America right now, then fuck bro we aren't too far away from how they perceive the US.
@@knux5796 Literally the statistics show this is true. Over 70% of Americans are overweight and over 40% of that is obesity. So do you really wanna get in a debate over who is re tarded here? Because it ain't looking good for you champ.
"addiction isn't a choise but getting rid of it is" i loved it, i haven't been able to explain this to people until now
Lol addiction is a consequence of several of the same choices in a row.
Basic.
True but it shouldn't be ruined for the massive percentage of people who can enjoy responsibly just like gambling people getvin over there heads then blame everyone else apart from themselves
It is a choice if you're an adult....
@@user-gw3lp3lb1o I think you can easily make a case of bad faith actors carrying part of the responsibility even if it is up to you to change your habits. Casinos and the like try very, very hard to get people addicted to gambling on purpose. Just saying that it is "your fault for not being responsible or lacking self control" feels very dishonest. Just like how McDonalds and other similar brands advertised themselves to children for decades and use psychology to try and attach their brand to things you love and now unsurprisingly there's a lot of people addicted to their stuff. It's your responsibility to change, but you can definitely pin blame on the brands as well and start a conversation on what actions should be taken against them for the damage they encourage, or at the very 'least if their approach should be legal or not to protect future generations.
Unless born with the addiction cause of the parent, it definitely is a choice lmfao. Insane how people are agreeing with that as if they didn't choose to do the drugs etc in the first place. Just magically appeared in their veins.
Absolutely the best statement I've heard "nobody else is at fault......." we could apply this across the board in the US, the lack of personal responsibility is disgusting.
plenty of people are at fault outside of the individual 1) government including the FDA 2) food companies 3) food lobbyists 4) farmers 5) consumers as a group 6) corrupt sellout scientists cooking studies 7) the list goes on
Yeah, but it's bullshit. These companies know how to make stuff addictive and making you believe, you're in control, is part of their strategy. Makes you let your guard down. It's up to you, no question, but it's not necessarily your fault.
"You're mentally fat" is the funniest call out i've ever heard in a twitch stream. What a wild video this is.
As someone that's mentally skinny, this makes sense to me. I'm active, I'm not lazy, but I am getting a dad bod (fat). But, if I feel like I should run, I run. If i get winded, I push through it. If I'm hungry but don't have food available, I don't sweat it. My condition is totally in my control. I'm really very depressed and don't see the point in anything though. So i land somewhere in the middle lol
I mean it's true. If you stay relatively in shape but you got urges to eat something unhealthy, irreasonable amounts of something or even more than it's enough, then you are mentally fat. And you can either fight it and stay in shape or stray on the path to become fat physically
@tako_ro
I'm mentally thin but physically fat.

My friend visited the US recently and he said that the portions are really big and food tastes really sweet in general. The US have much lower standard for food than the EU and lots of ingredients that are banned here are perfectly legal in America. It's not just calorie count that is higher in the US, it's that toxic chemicals damage your hormones so you can't process food normally. UK and Germany also have a lot of fat people, right there with the US.
Yep, I just mentioned the same thing in my comment, but I'm late to the party. We need to ban known bad chemicals which have no place in what we call food.
@SaneMillennial i work in plastic injection and some of the chemicals we clean with are used in food production.... so i see where you come from, i like the larger portion sizes i work 12-15 hours a day and only eat breakfast so i usally get a huge breakfast from burgerking 2 eggnormus breakfast burritos and 2 double crosannwichs... i feel its excessive but i only eat once a day and im very active at work. I dont really get breaks anymore lol
@@emer07jiffy I'm not judging, your country your rules, I just think it's sad that a society would accept this as something completely normal
CICO has been proven scientifically to be less significant than endocrinology. While it is a significant factor, what you said about hormones is more accurate. The food has chemicals and ingredients that mess with hormones like ghrelin, testosterone, estrogen, etc. causing extreme weight gain in some and cancer in others.
I don't see how the EU, which is pretty bloody fat too, acts so confused about America's obesity.
"regulating that is too much work"
Its not, actually.
Every single thing scanned is categorized. Its extremely easy to block certain purchases.
It's easy to count everyday calories cause it's all written on products)
Yeah but if a person wants to live on little debbie's you cant govern that. It's a choice and sugary shit is still food
@@gregm.stanley8221 yeah, not saying we should, just that it’s actually not hard to do.
Agreed, regulating it is probably not difficult, when I was working in France my company would give me an equivalent of food stamps as a benefit, and the usage was very regulated. I couldn't buy everything in the menu and the store was very strict about it. I don't know how it was done though
As a Mexican living in Mexico, the "finish your whole plate" culture is because most people are poor around here and usually the mother is the one who cooks for the family and she wants the kids to finish the plate. That culture is not made for Tex-Mex huge amounts of food. I have family there and most of them are obese, it's sad.
I'm from a more african culture.. But i wonder if they ever told you that food leftovers will chase you to hell on judgement day.. Cause I never forget this crap.
@@AbdulBido Thankfully not 😅
Yeah, parents will give their kids the food they need cause when you are poor and starving, you want the kids to eat. Unfortunately, that has translated to eating plates and plates of high calorie, high fat foods.
it's comom on Brazil too.
Its the general american problem. Pretty much every culture has a low cost carb that is central to our diets because it always had to be as the most cost effective option. We italians have pasta, my puerto rican wife has rice and beans... now we can afford to have a virtually endless supply of rice and flour. I'm only gate kept on how much pasta I can make by how many eggs I can afford. Portion control hasn't become a staple of cultures as they start to have the ability to afford more, its a hard adjustment. Then you factor in dopamine and addiction cycles and you get stuck.
Not to mention the real issue in that obesity is such a far reach to any actual problems it causes. Tell a city of obese people they need to lose weight and you'll struggle to get past the part where they don't care about their weight. The impact on society as a whole isn't exactly obvious
Was in line at Disney this weekend. I looked around and I say 98% of the people in line with me were fat. Adults, kids, everyone. It motivated me to lose weight as your house tour motivated me to clean my house.
Amusement parks are wild. Obese people using scooters everywhere.
I don't go out much, it's something I'm working on though. As I've been going out more it's dawned on me that 2/3 (generous estimation) people I see are considerably overweight or getting there. Only skinny people I really commonly see are younger
@@RhinoTTH if I remember right over 40% of the USA is considered obese or heavier. Keep in mind they are going off the medical definition and obesity looks a lot less "fat" than what people are used to as well, so the problem is even worse as our heavier people vastly go past the point of medical obesity.
That was wild last time I went! No scooters left to rent, but wheelchairs not touched. Fried food on every corner, nothing green. 😮
@@RhinoTTH Take up doing yard work if you have a yard.
Bro, when the mall cop rolled in on his own Scooozer I damn near lost it. 5:15
We had fast food in the 80's and you were hard pressed trying to find an overweight kid let alone an obese one. We ate fast food as a treat not a regular meal and people in general were far more active than they are today. We were out all day riding bikes until the street lights came on not sitting in front of screens.
Your groceries were also probably not $300 a week and parents made enough to support you AND the bills AND buy a house. Nowadays, and you can do the math, it is cheaper to actually buy takeout (not doordash and not counting anything delivered. Strictly you picking it up yourself) than it is to routinely buy groceries in 2024. The time you were a kid and the time of todays kids are incomparable.
@@KalidasaOW I bet you $100 that it's not cheaper to buy fast food, meal for meal, than to cook for yourself.
A McDonald's number 1 combo, which is a big mac meal that feeds one, or two small people: $10.19 (about $5.00 per person if feeding two)
A giant pot of beans and rice and sausage that feeds 10 people:
2lbs of rice: $1.77
3lbs of sausage: $12
2lbs of red beans: $4
An onion: $1.00
Total Price: $18.77
Price per meal: $1.87
Even if I left out a couple of things, such as the price of salt, butter if you use it in your beans 'n' rice, or other spices, I would need to increase the price of the pot to $50 in order to make it the same price as the McDonald's meal.
And no one is getting fat off the value menu, so don't even start with that!
To be honest i believe smart phones and stuff will be the biggest factor in the fall of humans.
I agree, but we are lying to ourselves if we think we would have chosen bikes over cell phones and games. Today's kids are no different than we were, they just have more and worse choices.
As a grave keeper, this place is a nightmare. Last time I had to bury someone that big, it took 14 of us just to carry the casket to the grave. Normally, it takes 6. I hope I never have another oversized burial.
Same thing in nursing, we have to lift these people everyday with lifts attached to our ceilings, just so they dont collapse on themselves and rot on the bed. Its a pain in the ass, no matter how careful you're trying to be you end up breaking your back somehow, even with the help of the lift and sling.
I work in a hospital and when bariatric patients die, most don't fit inside the morgue, so they store them inside a cooler. They empty the cooler contents and put them inside.
damn, thanks for sharing :o
@@maladyofdeath Same applies to cruise ships. They all have morgues. If too many people fill up the usual freezer (10 bodies on the largest ships) then they resort to the food freezers. This means taking out mostly desserts and having an impromptu party on deck. Next time anyone here thinks it's a perk of the trip, well... kind of yes and no. That ice cream was brought out because some corpse took its place. Bon appétit.
I realize coffins are expensive, I cannot imagine the cost of a supersize coffin

I love how the world knows that america comes in 3 flavors: our government, our military, and this. This is our legacy to the world, batshit politicians, freedom bombs, and FAT
Blame the 19th amendment
This is ignorance to the max. Lots of countries LOVE the USA, and it isn't just because we have the best governmental setup, the best military or the most access to food. Those are also good, but not the only reasons. People love our fashion, they love our culture, our history (the wild west, for instance), our entertainment. . . we're a juggernaut.
also that child book guy is a fucking titan of a human being, picking up a fight he knew is useless and pointless even before the idea came to him, but he did it anyway, fucking gigachad and a capeless hero

"Slowly puts down that cookie while watching"
UPDATE: Wow, I didn't expect to start a discussion about cookies lol.
Im from Europe so our cookies are bland by US standards :D, also I'm year in journey of losing weight and so far I've lost 23 kg which for my imperial friends is 50.7 lbs.
Still need to shred another 50-70 lbs and I will be good.
If anyone is wondering how to do it, it's simple: intermittent fasting which basically means that I only eat during an 8 hour window. 16 fasting - 8 hours of eating window. I don't really measure it super carefully, a lot of times I just eat whenever I want, but because of starting with this method, I feel fuller quickly (probably my stomach got smaller).
Oh and one more thing, I stopped drinking sugary soda. That's the real killer.
"You gonna finish that cookie bro?"
😆
Finish your plate son.
😂😂😂
A 'murican cookie contains more sugar than an European one. You are basically putting a two cookies worth of calories cookie down. 😊
I 100% agree, it's not the fast food places fault. I was over 300lbs, last summer I finally decided enough is enough and changed my diet dramatically. I'm now down to 255. I now eat out once every 3-4 weeks instead of 1-2 a week, I eat more chicken and eggs and east less pasta. I snack on fruits or unsalted popcorn instead of chips and cookies. I drink water or tea instead of soda, i still have 2-3 cans per week but better than 1L a day. I was the reason I got to 300+lbs, not mcdonalds, not taco bell it was 100% me.
I just got blood work done last week and I am very lucky I don't have diabetes. I also don't have high blood pressure. I am super lucky I started my new diet when I did. I definitely need to exercise more but next week I'll be starting a more physical job where I will be walking quite a bit and be lifting heavy stuff so that will help.
I'm sick of hearing there is X amount of fast food places THEY are why we are fat. Nah, we are fat because we were the idiots that chose to eat like garbage.
Congrats on the weight loss
You got this King
You drove throught eh drive way and swiped your card.
Quit calling it a diet that implies u get to quit at some point and u don't get to ever. Lifestyle change
Good for you 💪
Also, from what I can tell as a foreigner is that fast food seems to be cheaper for americans to get than healthy food.
McDs for instance is basically a premium price for a third worlder, no one has the money to get a BigMac everyday around here.
The average brazilian is usually on a minimum wage job, a Big Mac is way waaaaaaaay too expensive, especially if you have a family with kids, you will be basically spending 1/5 of your minimum wage to buy a BigMac for a family of 4.
By that price you could probably buy food to last at least two weeks.
I think it's partially if not half of the reason is because your average wage in US is high'ish, I mean the the $16 wallmart or was it bartender I heard of is already 2 days of work in the Philippines(if you are minimum wage earner). So since burgers are theoretically mostly factory produced, they're cheaper, that country has it's pros and cons but but I generally decided don't want to live there cause I'm a 🏴☠person.
Hi from Germany. To be fair, its real easy to gain weight in the US , because the industry there doesnt give the slightest one. I heard from Tourists who visited Germany, that they ate all the food, drank all the beers and boozes and they actually lost weight, so its not only the individuel to blame. Oh and they had to walk most places.
The food approved within the USA is the same government department which approves drugs within the USA. The pharmaceutical companies sends billions of dollars into the FDA for having their drugs approved. The pharmaceutical companies make more money when people are unhealthy. This means the FDA has financial incentives for keeping people unhealthy because their biggest financial source of money is the pharmaceutical companies. The FDA is not held accountable for any bad decisions such as approving chemicals or ingredients within food which are known for causing cancer. The FDA is not held accountable for the growing obesity within the USA.... this means eating healthy requires consistently researching your food. What might be healthy today might be changed by the food company later resulting with an unhealthy ingredients in the future.
it is though, whole foods exist in the US too
for many Americans unhealthy food is the only one they can find or afford. so yeah, there's more than just people's self-control to blame if a town has a billion fast-foods and not a single place to get fresh produce at reasonable prices.
but then again there are countries with easy access to healthy food that are right up there in the top of the obesity charts. Mexico has much easier access to healthy food than the US. Cheap healthy food is easily available in Italy and it was second for child obesity rates. So there's more to it than how easy or hard it is to gain weight.
The whole "I went to x country and ate all the food but lost weight" story. Is just because they were more active and walked more during that vacation.
@@privtprofile24well yes because most places where people live in the US are often quite far from places they need to go to. Therefore, most people use cars, not walk.
"wanna know what i eat for breakfast? Nothing, cause i don't eat breakfast" You have to wake up before midday to eat breakfast.

Hahaha that mall cop on the scooter with the safety vest. That's SO American.
It must be a southern thing. You don't see that kind of "fanny-pack" nonsense in the south.
There is such a thing as Personal Responsibility. I was raised in a low income Texas family but we were taught portion control and only put what you can eat on your plate. We were also forced to be outside.
As a small kid growing up in Greece, I was so used to seing obese adults (especially men), that I unironically believed that it is normal for a grown up (basically everyone my parents' age) to be fat. Because it was literally the norm. I also remember being at a classmate's birthday party in second grade, whose both parents were skinny, and I was genuinely surprised by that.
Yeah, its insane how normal it is in many places in the world to have a majority fat population. I'm from Houston Texas, so I can generally find more and more obese people the further I go from the inner city, and when it gets into rural towns in Texas, it really feels like a different kind of world where people just refuse to take care of their weight. I see statistically island nations like Tuvalu tend to be the same and it just makes me sad how we don't have enough support for children especially to control their weight before they grow up and have control over their own lives.
Funny story. My wife was doing some kind of "Greek Mediterranean" diet until one of her co-workers from Greece said her entire family is fat. She stopped that diet right after.
@@ThinkCreativeIy it's poverty.
Tbf "fat" people in europe are in average a lot healthier than in the US, i mean here we have fat 100 years old and fat people with no diabetes whatsoever.
@@dragonsauce358Poverty doesn't make you fat.
This happened to my youngest sister after she got married. 100% mindset of thinking you're already fat so why bother and it just spirals from there.
it doesn't "happen to you". The flu happens to you, an ear infection happens to you, obesity doesn't happen to you... you arrive at obesity through choices not the other way around.
Marriage is good 💯😂😂😂😂 in my home town if you don't get fat he didn't feed you 😭😂
"after she got married"... lots of women no longer care about the body once they chained a man into marriage.
The man is either stuck with her or in most cases the man will lose HALF of everything he owns plus losing custody of the kids.
Me, a feeder: “Joke’s on you, I’m into that”
wtf kind of mindset is that? It is like going to the hospital with illness and telling the doc don’t bother i’m already dying.
The US could also federally require calorie amounts to be posted on menu’s and on store bought items. That helps in more way then you’d realize
That's already a thing.
like eat selfmade food. It's one of the best way to control yourself:)
You don't need calories to know that living off of fried quad-pounders isn't healthy...

That security guy wasn't walking either.
This whole thing gives me "Idiocracy" vibes.
For those that have not seen it: Idiocracy was released in 2006. One of the best documentaries out there. Definitely worth your time watching!
Might as well be considered a documentary at this point 😂
Welcome to Costco. I love you
Haven't seen security guards walk at malls for like over a decade lol. They are always on some segway or scooter.
The security guard has a good reason though, idk how big that area is but I would assume it's decently sized so you expect him to walk through all that all day without getting tired and pains? It's not the same as someone who's only there to shop for an hour or two.
For a security guy it's actually reasonable. Imagine having to walk around through the entire mall, day by day. Every muscle in your legs and every joint will hurt quickly. It's healthier for them if they use a segway. Also, the guy did not look like he had a problme with obesity.
Interesting what was said about public versus private places in the US. Here in England, a private business that can be entered freely by members of the public is considered a public space. A fast food drive-through road is considered to be a public road, for example, so laws prohibiting the use of mobile phones while at the wheel of a motor vehicle apply (one exemption being the use of the 'phone to make a payment) and people have been convicted of motoring offences in those circumstances.
I think a lot of the problem stems from education as well. Yes you can say it’s the individuals fault for being fat, but having fast food so easily available, and no one in school or parents are teaching about health, then why wouldn’t they just eat what’s easy.
Then they develop addictions and conditions before they even realize what they are doing.
At that point yes it it’s the individuals responsibility to make a change, but it’s not easy and they were setup for failure.
Coming from someone who lived this, reached 400lbs, and finally turned it around. 100lbs down and living a different lifestyle
This may be a hot take, but I don't think that 1000 calorie plus fast food meals are making people 400 plus pounds. These people are snack monsters. Either throughout the day or at the end of the day, they are crushing party size bags of chips and tubs of ice cream on the couch after dinner. The amount they are crushing at home would actually embarrass them and that's why they do it under the cover of their private residence.
This is true... and it's the reason why obese people use the drive thru at fast food restaurants. You're less likely to see obese people in restaurants because they are ashamed of how they're unable to control their eating habits. Mainstream news media and Hollywood have also begun promoting obesity as normal and something which should be accepted which only made the problem worse in the USA.
As someone who has lost nearly 30 pounds with portion control and healthier snacks. This is 100% accurate. I haven't even started going to the gym yet. I've lost 26 lbs this year. Cutting snacks and drinking sugar free sodas has literally improved my quality of life immensely. I use an energy drink to help me get my day started. I MIGHT have a coke zero every couple days. 1 maybe 2 cheat meals a week.
I lost 50 pounds and still going from 230, 180 now
Only from counting calories and i eat whatever dafuq as long as i stay under my calories to stay in deficit and if i went over i do cardio and weightlift
And it works! Im not talking nutrition and health quality of the food but for reducing fat, its great
During maintenance later when i hit my target is when i will eat well balanced nutrition meals
Cheers
@@JitteryJackanapea can or two of zero sodas everyday is ok, 0 calories and zero sugar is zero calories and zero sugar drinks
No evidence of long term harm from diet and zero sodas on people
Unless you drink about 5000 cans per day, thats lethal amount of aspartame 😜
Drinks are the biggest culprit. These people drink a gallon of coke every day instead of water and that's when it happens.
If you cut sugary drinks out of your life entirely, you immediately notice the difference.
I did not expect the former 600 pound lifer to break out into the splits 😭 honest respect. 🙌
I guess i'm not fattie because i dont have that "i'm bored,let's eat" mindset,instead my mindset is "i'm bored,let's [play games/take a walk/play harvest moon IRL(translation: work on a farm) etc]" and a bowl(around 2kg) of handmade fries from real potatoes is lasting me a full day,thanks for good reaction vids Asmongold,if not for you i wouldnt give a damn to take a look at them,thumbs up from me
The problem is excess and no self-control. And just an aside on the EBT cards, you can easily regulate it. All they need to do is approve what can be purchased and as items are scanned and the card comes out it will only pay for what is approved. It would be stupid simple to fix the abuse and obesity problem, at least among the food stamps purchases. They already have a list of things not approved and if you try to pay with food stamps it won't go through, just expand that list of items. The real issue is no one actually wants to stop it and fix it.
It's basically an addiction to sugar and starches.
So many people will say they cannot live without having something full of sugar, or their bread/rice/potatoes; and they will have withdrawal symptoms if they don't eat it.
This is it exactly. Sugar withdrawal is no joke. I went to water only a few years back and had the same symptoms as some of my family when they stopped smoking. Way to much sugar in american food.
@@KiaStout Them putting food in everything isn't a bug, it's a feature.
@@KiaStout drinking water is so great because you get to taste the food more. Finishing with a sugary drink, just upset my stomach.
brainfog, dizziness, sleepiness, bad mood, irration. I hated the withdrawals but it was 100% worth it to get rid of addiction
i literally JUST stopped drinking tea and coffee with sugar like 4 months ago and lost 10 kilos lol, and it tastes as good too (btw I used to and still drink cola like once every week or more)
for most people significant weight loss can just come from stopping drinking sugary drinks
Its surprising sumo wrestling hasn't become a major sport in America, so many potential players.
That requires honor, respect, and religious conviction. Americans couldn't handle it.
All that weight is muscle not fat😂
I know this is a joke, but sumoists have beastly muscles underneath the fat, similar to powerlifters, meanwhile the average american is a barrel of lard and not much else
That would require extreme exercise
errr sumo is full of muscle underneath that fat , meanwhile america probably full of cheetos xD
24:53 Not surprised it's $26 when they add stuff like "low order fee", "bag fee", "delivery fee", "service charge" and "tip". The food probably only cost the guy $3.29
13:35 I somewhat disagree with Asmon here, i think that the accessibility of fast food in America is also a very big contributor to the obesity epidemic over there. America has drive-throughs. You can go in and out within a few mins.
If you had to park, get out of your car, walk in the fast food place, order from a person, wait 10 -15 mins for your food, a lot less people would get fast food, just because it's a bigger hassle.
Like, if hard drugs were more accessible, more people would be addicts. And eating fast food is an addiction for a lot of people.
The other big reason for the obesity in America is the lack of a cuisine in the country. From an outsider's prospective the American cuisine is McDonalds.
What I realized is that a chocolate croissant in the US has 450 cals. In France 250… portions are twice as large for everything generally. Also compared US pastries with the rest of the world: corn syrup and twice the sugar everywhere. That’s insane
I just don't get who eats syrup for breakfast...just thinking about it makes me feel slightly ill.
Originally the larger portions was beneficial for the USA because hard working people needed to build muscle and size for daily work or fighting threats. Today the larger portions are extremely unhealthy for two reasons. The first is because most people today do not have daily work which requires lots of strength or fighting threats.... machines/computers/tools have evolved greatly verses 100 years ago. Secondly the FDA should be proactively keeping all food within the USA as healthy... but the FDA is never held accountable thus why there's horribly addictive and fattening food within the USA.
@@memitim171 it’s just that in the US, corn syrup is used as sweetener (instead of sugar) and they put it everywhere.
this is an excuse, or you really believe that hardworking people exist only in usa?@@NTJedi
they should replace corn syrup with sugar from cane, its still bad, but it would cut the calories in half.

I have moved all over the USA for my job and I have noticed that the more walkable a city/town is with multiple things to do other than eat and sit around, the less obese the population.
Most places full of obese people are either extremely rural or full of sun bleached stroads with fast food places every other massive parking lot, with nothing to do.
a sizeable portion if not the majority of the "obese" population don't get around much/out of their houses so saying you know what places are more or less obese by visiting them is probably not all that accurate.
@@grozone5581 Sure.. ONCE they are morbidly obese. But how did they get like that? Maybe they never went out because there was nothing to do.. so then they stayed inside, got depressed, got fat. And then had kids, grew their kids up in the same sad environment, and fed them the same shit foods. Its self perpetuating. And kids who grew up like that did not get a fair chance.

I was in the same position. My weight before i started to watch my eating habits and what i eat was 352 Pounds. Now after 1 year i am at 213 pounds kinda muscular and reduced my body fat ratio to 19 percent. Honestly it saved my life and now i can enjoy life with quality and i am not nearly dying to a heart attack after going up 2 floors. i can really recommend watching what you eat and working out :)
What's crazy to me, a guy from Poland, and btw I can see it in conversations of my US friends, is how you guys in USA pretty much never talk about non-chain restaurants unless it's some fancy expensive one. Here there are a lot of small businesses. There's just one big name pizza where I live, all the other restaurants I order from are local. Not many people buy food in fast food restaurants.
Just what I was thinking re: Australia. We have McDonalds, KFC and a couple of others but don't consider them restaurants or cafes which are local, individually owned and have their own food/menus. That's the norm. I see videos on American tourists in other countries who sometimes complain there's no x y or z chain where food will always be identical as they're not as used to individually run food places. Even with our to your door food delivery services we order from a few chains but it's mostly local food places.

Its true which is enough.

@ShenobiYT if you had an addiction, you'd know how tough it is to muster the strength to break out of it. Most people make the choice to stop once they have no other choice left
in mexico they enforced big badges with warnings on food package. they say "Trans fat". "Excess of sodium", "excess of sugar". This has helped a lot of people (including me) to choose better products in a easy way. Also they enforced to label fake cheese and all fake food as so. like, if cheese is not 100% made from milk it should say "Cheese substitute" . This has helped a lot of people avoid unnatural, overprocessed foods as well.

As someone with a recently acquired dad bod- I can tell you it comes from poor time management. Also no as being lazy
Just the 1st breakfast of 3k calories is 500 calories over the daily expenditure of a big male, meaning you would get overweight with just that 1 meal. Thats why and how.
Because (((They)) want them to get this way
@@River_of_Revenge I mean, I can understand the "Dad Bod" living in modern society, but some of these people just literally can't even live a regular life due to how large they are.

I ruined my teeth. Out of laziness, depression, and just general lack of money. Now i have 2 molars left and im 35. I will never afford implants so im gonna be in dentures in the next few years. I cry about it. Thanks for sharing gold.
If you're 35 then you still have lots of time to earn big money. If I was in your shoes I would switch careers into one of the blue collar trades... welding or plumbing since you have money struggles today. Finding a mentor is extremely important for making sure you take the right steps with a new career.
😢😢
This is really old advice, but it's the best. Quit eating sugar, including carbohydrates because they're basically sugar. The reason your teeth rot is because of bacteria in your mouth and that bacteria needs carbohydrates to survive. I've lost most of my molars as well, and the toothaches I went through were legendary. I don't get toothaches since I stopped eating so much sugar.
@@NTJedi He also can get it done in a lower income country like Mexico or Turkey. I agree with your post, just wanted to add that it might be more affordable than people imagine. Im an American in Brazil and the dentist seems to be like 1/5th the price or so.
@@GTSN38 the reason you have carbohydrate digesting bacteriaa in you're mouth is because humans are supposed to eat carbohydrates. Carbohydrates aren't killing you're teeth or making you obese. Pizza hut , McDonald's and coke are. There's a difference
On the topic of self-control vs addiction etc. As somebody who's been both obese and now lower end of normal weight BMI. Let me tell you, it is super-difficult to stop eating an excess and control yourself when you are addicted to food. I don't think you can blame the people and tell them to simply eat less. You want to stop, but when you are addicted to it, cravings for food can get so strong your brain won't let you stop thinking about food every waking minute until you eat. It is super-hard to resist. It gets easier and easier when you manage to resist, but it takes a very long time. And you have to gather a shit-ton of willpower over time to be able to do it.
I definitely think the right way is to never let kids develop the food addiction in the first place, though. I think if I never ended up overweight/obese when younger I would never have developed a food addiction. Stress was also a big factor for me, though, and if you get stressed during your weight loss journey you are very likely to regress very quickly.
Regarding the part about people stopping eating so much food. It isn't always about the amount, its the quality of food that is the issue. Its the constant intake of fast food, candy and snacks.
I lived one year in the states and gained 50 lbs despite working out more than I ever have in my life. When I came back to Europe, I started working at the McDonald’s and ate there daily. In two months I lost the weight I had gained during my exchange year (without exercising). I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s not only the fast food and accessibility of it in the US but also absence of regulations how the food is being processed.
Exactly 💯! Our government/corporations put/allow so much junk in our foods that it is addictive, causes cancers, has barely any nutritional value and just keeps getting more and more expensive.
I want to move out of this country so bad. We need so many more regulations. If these greedy corporations can/do serve healthier (and cleaner) options at their facilities in other countries, they can do the same in the United States.. they just choose not to for profit.
They say we are the land of the free.. but it's all a lie.. they are just milking us for our money and making us work too much as well as distract/lie to us so we don't notice the hamster wheel & whip.
The U.S./American Dream is a lie.
I think it's the polar opposite of things like chia seeds and maybe keto diet where one of the options are is to trick your stomach if not your system you're full or something, while being low if not very low calorie.
Those US food gave you very high calorie while idk why but your body still thinks your hungry.
It's amazing how even the security guy couldn't be bothered to walk.
So shoplifters only have to outrun the scooter up a flight of stairs to get away?
as someone from McAllen.......yeah makes sense. The food is really good, it is almost addicting. I don't live there anymore, but when I go to visit, I eat so much food lmao. I'm personally not obese, but if I moved back, I think I prolly would at least become overweight with all the yummy food around.
8:12 Because high fructose corn syrup (and who knows what else) is used everywhere and people got addicted.
As someone who has been through a lot and seen a lot more. Theres a truth some people have a hard time understanding that is well known in rehab. "Nothing is going to change until you hit rock bottom". Nothing is going to change until you do.
Other people helping and all that stuff can and in most cases does help. But it starts from wanting to help yourself. Asmon nailed it when he said people need to hold themselves accountable.
Lard is a much healthier cooking option than vegetable based oils. Their problem is the amount of food they are eating. The combination of carbs, sugars and fats is causing obesity.
Three meals from McDonalds isn't that much over 3000 calories a day. These people are eating 6000+ calories a day.
Yeah, lard gets a bad name.
how is lard better than Olive oil for example? oO
I always use my bacon fat for my eggs, the only thing they lack is exercise and watching their macros 😂
There’s no way how can this be true.
@@EzeTarget with your specific example, lard is not better than olive oil. 1 Spoon of lard will have double the amount of saturated fat than that of olive oil. Fat is fat, its necessary to consume it to live, too much of anything will kill you, this is my surface level knowledge, feel free to research more
That author dude is too cool..thanks for having him in the program
Lard itself isn't bad; it's actually better than seed oils. Also, because of the additional nutrients, it also makes you fuller faster. Portioning is everything.
In japan you can buy just as shitty food as in America but they have to walk to the train station to get around. That little bit of exercise saves lives. Car culture and the laws in America restricting grocery stores from being in walking distance to your house is literately killing us.
The healthier food is also easier and cheaper to access
there arent laws resticting grocery stores from being in walkable distance? lmao there are plenty of cities where you can walk to grocery stores from your house. it just isnt the norm
what's with everyone wanting to scapegoat the problem, no one is at fault besides the individual. You really think because they have a car and convenience options that thye cant get a treadmill or stationary bike or walk around the block a few times a day etc etc etc. it's not industries fault its your fault and yours alone.
ehhhh it's kinda true. I lived in Tokyo during covid and lived on a diet of almost exclusively mcdonalds and cocoichibanya (Japanese curry) for about 8-10 months. I was completely sedentary during that time and ubered all my meals. I lost weight. In fact I almost became underweight. It was just genetics and the way my body reacted to extreme stress.
I'm not saying those things aren't also true. But there are a lot of factors (moving definitely does help tho)
@itz_otto Look into your urban zoning laws man. Your mixed zoning is non-existent.

What’s crazy is this is what happening with ppl who riding electric bikes instead of peddling.
The teeth story hit really hard with me because I was in a very similar situation. Due to autism and adhd, I never cared for my teeth, so they turned extremely yellow. It was in high school when I started caring about getting a gf that I noticed how much I had fucked my live at that point to end up with yellow teeth. Thankfully, I started taking care of them a lot more after the realization, but no amount of brushing or toothpaste fixes yellow teeth from years of bad care. It was only after college that I was able to somewhat fix my teeth because I now had the money for it. It's hard to put into words the state it puts you in once you realize you fucked your life and cant fix it.
I do have to say that many of these situations, including my teeth situation, is stemmed from parents that don't give a shit. The parents didn't care their child never brushed their teeth or that their child weighed the same as 3 of his classmates combined, so when these children finally grew up and understood their dire situation, it was already too late. If a child grows up obese, chances are, they won't do anything about it because their parents taught them to not care about it, else the child wouldn't have been ovese to begin with. Similarly, they might also not do anything because at that point of realization, the fix for the issue is seemingly too hard to solve at that point, hence no effort is done to fix the situation
You are 100% right about kids that grow up obese due to bad parenting. And to go even further, these kids will become teenagers and their parents will still only buy them junk food every day, they cant even go out and buy their own food as they dont have any money, and cant drive, so they are completely dependant on their parents. Once they leave and get their own job.. its too late.
Still better than me I was neglecting my teeth till I was in late 20s I had too many holes and some starting to hurt my head so bad that I was smashing my head against wall, then I had to fill 2 of them with root canal procedure, also one had to be extracted and in 20mins I will have another visit with my dentist. It costed me a small fortune to fix 90% of them only a few of them left. Never neglect your teeth kids.
Imagine you have given up so much you never walk again.... Holy shit
luckily in some countries (I know in the Uk they do) the laws are forcing companies to write the calories of the item you are buying in the menu, so you can hopefully make better decisions and to also help those that want to control their intake by knowing how much they do when they eat out
LOL Conrad getting called out was hilarious.
In all seriousness,it’s all about self control. My mother recently was diagnosed with diabetes. My sister will get it when she gets older. My grandmother has it. Thankfully I’m not fat but I’m def not healthy. Trying to work that now. I quit soda for years and years, then it ended up back in my life and drink coke with a meal every time. But it’s never a full can I buy the mini cans and don’t even finish one of those. I mostly drink water and I need to just quit all together
It's in the food. It confuses our body's natural mechanisms for telling us when we are full and when we should be hungry again.
Food companies have invested an absurd amount of resources into making people chemically dependent on their food-like products.
Saying things like "just stop eating so much bro" and "just exercise more" is technically true, but the actual willpower needed to do that *when you're this far gone* is akin to telling a heroine addict to cut cold turkey.
Most people haven't realized that not all calories are the same.
1000 calories worth of meat and fat will leave most people satisfied for hours if not the whole day.
1000 calories worth of sugar and starches? They'll be satiated for 30-60 minutes and then the sugar crash happens.
@@rahn45 It's not even meat but protein. Protein takes longer to digest. So omelettes for example with ham will fill you more than six bags of cookies.
It's the people. Companies react to what their customers want. It's lack of discipline and accountability which is a part of a feminized society.
Interestingly, the one thing that is demonized by the government/"associations" is saturated fat, which is the one thing that signals to your brain to stop eating after you eat some.
@@rahn45 Exactly. They have been tricked into believing in the calories in calories out flawed logic, and they ignore all of the complex chemical processes taking place inside of our bodies. It's a lot harder to "count calories" when someone's hungry all day than when someone is full after eating some meat.
There was a time when I was in a bad place, and locked myself in the house, eating only food delivery. I gained some weight, I got overweight, but not obese. Even thought I was eating McDonald's and other fast foods, I was ordering only once per day, not like that guy ordering twice a day. Every few days I fasted a whole day, I didn't eat anything. You can't be ordering multiple times a day, that's really bad
Mobility scooters are a way of life in the UK now.
The problem is 100% self control. Every small town and large city in the U.S. has fast food joints that serve highly processed foods that are LOADED with salt, saturated fat, and sugar. The solution is to not eat food from those places. Cooking your own food at home is the healthiest and least expensive option.
13:43 He’s absolutely right, this man eats almost exclusively fast food and he’s a damn twig for crying out loud. Portion control, exercise and willpower to avoid random food cravings is key. Some tricks I would use when you get those “cravings” is make your mouth tired out by chewing bubblegum or eating sunflower seeds because of the low impact and the amount of effort it takes to eat them.
A simpler trick to stop the cravings to is to switch to a keto/carnivore diet, and keep carbs to a minimum.

Damn you can eat 4k calories a day if you want to but you gotta do something on return ffs. Go do heavy workouts every second day and you'll be mostly fine. But that takes self-control and the same control needed will prevent you from eating like this in the first place so it's an endless loop of losing control for those people
Yeah but You need to buy the sunflower, and eat the seads one by one. Buying a big bag of sunflower seads won't help, on the contrary, they have a lot of calories if eaten in bulk
To be fair, a local bakery can't really give an accurate calorie count, the calories can very from batch to batch, so it unfair to expect them to have the calorie count, generally its enough to know that baked goods are heavy af as a rule
It's absolutely not unfair.
If they are unable to standardize their process (which they absolutely can) then they shouldn't be selling.
There's no reason why they can't do the math and divide by number of products. Once you have a homogenous mixture (which baking leads to every time) you can just divide.
Icing? Or whatever? Divide it into x amount of calorie portions then apply however many to each product. It's not hard, or impossible.
Do not believe that a BAKERY can't create a batch of dough and create the same size cookies/doughnuts/pastries then. There's no reason they can't. If they are to be considered professionals then they should be held to an professional standard. Especially if they are producing something for human consumption.
Whether the human chooses to look into the value or not is irrelevant, they should be entitled to access to nutrition information.
@@bigposts6673 because no matter how good you are, having to calculate how many calories are in each batch will never be precise, standardization happen in larg scale operations, not you local gran style bakery, remember that at the end of the day it up to us to take care of ourselves , if you go into the woods the bushs don't mark what berries are safe to eat, it's up to you to not die of disintary

Apparently they contained enough B vitamins for whatever organization passes these things to consider them a dietary supplement.

Like the smallest portions of things would be like for 3-4 days(Probably because everything was just family size).
There's sidewalks everywhere, where in the fuck did you go. I'm calling cap here, there's so many sidewalks in that country and every street is at minimum 3-4 lanes.
Also, no selections for a single person in Wal-mart? What? lol
I'm thinking you went to Sam's Club or something which is a Wal-mart company but with bulk-items of what you normally get at grocery stores.
What's frustrating to me is hearing that the diet is the issue. That's energy. When you're not moving and burning it off or using it as fuel, it's stored as fat. In many cultures the cuisine was meant to fill you up for a hard day's work and walking long distances. No one does that anymore... And they are sedentary and keep upping their calories.
the way they used to regulate ebt cards is you werent allowed to buy prepared food, you had to buy raw goods to cook, which is a great regulation! they mustve changed it, though im sure you still cant buy like mcdonalds with it..
I think the real answer is treating it like a mental disorder. Telling someone "Just stop eating so much, go exercise" feels effectively the same as telling a depressed person to just go outside and exercise. Like yes, it will 100% help to do those things, but there's so many mental blocks these people have to fight against that it's just not helpful.

@@Code_Machine both. seed oil is worse tho. there was an study that show that a small amount of seed oil increased insulin resistance more than eating moderate2high amounts of pure sugar. seed oil often oxidizes in blood and breaks stuff. one stuff that likes to break are insulin receptors, making pathological insulin resistance.
sugar is awful from a metabolic and mitochondrial stand point because of insulin rises that destroys mitochondrias and creates "metabolic syndrome" , sure. but seed oils are worse, the rise of seed oils are correlated to the obesity rise, and worse cardiovascular health, the consumption of sugar had never that strong correlation to anything, even diabetes (as sugar consumption style and protein consumption protects you to some extent to diabetes, there link is less strong, but still evident. USA has really low diabetes for what you would expect looking at other countries with lower obesity/higher diabetes, like Asian countries ).
I have ptsd and anxiety and adhd (annoyingly) and my weight was one of the main reasons it made these symptoms worse. Eating terrible food also made my mental health worse. Once I started working out everyday and going outside to walk my mental health improved dramatically .. way more than it ever did with medication (I quit my medication when I started to get healthy and being healthier done way more for me than medication did) when I ate healthier foods such as good meats and veg in smaller portions I also felt much better and now can’t stand any of my old junk food faves.
People not telling me I was unhealthy and needed to sort myself out did not help me. In the end it was me who told myself “I feel disgusting and hate myself I need to change before it’s too hard to do” and now I’m almost at my ideal body weight and much healthier mentally and physically.

There's nothing wrong with high calorie food, but you need less of it to fuel your body. If you want to eat a 1'200 calorie meal don't eat lunch and you can have a dinnertime feast. But people want to constantly eat all day long so they never burn off any stored fat when they're piling in snacks and drinks with 3 huge meals a day.
fr, snacking is a killer
If you are in a 500 calorie deficit. You can eat all day and still lose fat.
I mean, imagine how much you'd need to work out to burn off a single McDonalds meal. In ten or so minutes you need to pound that food, it'll take you at least six hours if not more to burn it off. And since it's so filled with crap, it won't even fuel you for it.
It's not that they want to eat all day long. It's that they are consuming a high carb diet, which leads to blood glucose dropping constantly, thereby leading to them feeling hungry all day.
That's kind of what I do sometimes as well. A 2k calorie mcdonald's meal is completely fine but not like two times daily
