"You're stupid if you're fat" is probably one of the worst things I've ever heard an "influencer" say about weight.
Basicly saying you are stupid if you eat fat while your brain is made of fat.
Lol I know so many technically brilliant fat people
Anything he would say after this should just be ignored
"one's body weight doesn't infer anything about their intelligence." Thank you, Abbey! Nor does it say anything about their work ethic or their personality, or anything else! That first guy got me TRIGGERED
And it has nothing to do with willpower or morals.
While I absolutely agree it has nothing to with "intelligence", claiming it has nothing to do with work ethic or personality is just being delusional. It requires a great amount of discipline to follow good nutrition, exercise and stay in shape while going about the rest of your life.
Not me losing 90 pounds since 2020 while eating SEVERAL servings of Nuts and healthy fats PER DAY and STILL lost weight, as explained in by weight loss story video. This is ridiculous. LOL!
yes nuts are great, whether or not you're pursuing weight loss
Healthy fats, nuts and all these other buzz words garbage have nothing to do with weight. Weight is simple. You exceed your TDEE you gain weight. You eat below it, you lose weight. This is science, it cannot be refuted.
My fave nuts are almonds and pecans. I also love cashews. By the way congrats on your weight loss!
I lost 90 pounds back in 2011/2012 while eating nuts, avocados and natural peanut butter.
you’re an anomaly
As someone who wrote a whole assignment about the correlation between increase in stress and norepinephrine and weight gain at uni.. whilst under a lot of stress… the irony was not lost on me that I gained a lot of weight in my last year 😂
People like Abbey Sharpe are so important and so needed especially now a days eating disorders are skyrocketing and it’s so sad 😢 We need Abbey
ED has been around. I think that there's been more focus on it, people are finally coming out of the woodwork about it.
@@janetslater129with more social media and then pandemic, EDs HAVE skyrocketed in recent years
@@janetslater129ED’s have always been around but there is much more easier access to even more dangerous tactics than there ever was before
Tiktok is so dangerous, it concerns me that people who aren't even trained professionally give out advice in a content format that is meant to be consumable and short-form. Thank you for debunking these, it's very important to understand the actual information behind the food we eat and how we can make our lifestyle healthier. 💓
That’s why I’m here❤
I eat an avocado, a tablespoon of peanut butter and chia/pumpkin seeds every day. I’ve lost 42 lbs since last year and my skin has never looked better!!
If you hear someone saying the secret to weight loss is to not eat real food, RUN AWAY. These people are ridiculous.
And the water piece can be very dangerous. I’ve really struggled with over water consumption in my ED - attempt to restrict & eventually ended up in the ICU for three days due to a hyponatremia related seizure. Thanks for debunking these!
I lost the 65 lbs I gained during quarantine by counting calories. I ate everything I wanted, just less of it. I had dessert every single day and often enjoyed cashews because honey roasted cashews are probably my favorite snack on the planet.
As you should, proud of you 🎉
I have been seeing a nutritionist for 4 years with up and down progress. What worked for me in the first 6 months, isn't working now. It's beyond crazy how much misinformation is on the internet like these "one size fits all" methods from completely unqualified people.
That’s why I’ve learned to listen to people then cherry-pick what works for me. Can be detrimental to blindly believe everything we hear unless it’s trusted advice.
The water one is so hard for me. I have autism/adhd and one of my sensory issues is never feeling thirsty or receiving cues from my body to drink water. I feel hungry, but never thirsty. Whenever I remember to drink water, I end up guzzling it.
The way the guy presented the idea wasn't productive though. You did a much better job exaining that people should drink water throughout the day.
I think that's why i get confused when people give advice online. For example, sometimes maybe 1/3 of their point is correct, but then the other 2/3's is misinformed. I like that you break down which part is correct and which part is incorrect. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 😊
so glad it was helpful!
Online advice is THE WORST for us neurodivergent folk. It will be contradictive and often makes no sense.
You need to use the logical part of your brain, which means you need to fact check - which will likely light up our ASD brains like a Christmas tree, however it will become exhausting.
So in order to make things more simple for our exhausted, panicky, brains, we begin to narrow our lives, along with the foods we will eat, until, bang, we've got ourselves a full blown eating disorder.
I don't know the solution, because once you've been looking online that door is wide open - other than to see ONE dietitian for advice. But, it's hard...
Maybe you'll benefit from having one of those bottles with time stamps on them. Or I think there are apps too to help people sip water throughout the day ✌🏻
If your body can't remind you, use a clock.
Same!!
The water information makes so much sense. I grew up with severe enuresis that worsened with night. To this day, it still has to be controlled through medication or I have accidents all day and all night. So while I was growing up, my fluids were heavily restricted and measured to keep me functional in school and to prevent triggering more accidents. I'm 34 and struggle so much with understanding the difference between thirst and hunger. My body is unable to tell the difference between them, and it has really impacted my health over time. I can't imgaine not having to deal with that but inducing it through trying to hack a calorie deficit with water. Dieting keeps so many of us in such a chokehold.
Abbey, you may not see this but your videos have helped me recognize some unhealthy eating habits I started to form and educated me on better ways I could manage my needs while identifying harmful information like you shown. Thank you!
P.S. your editing is hilarious. 😆
🔥
Love both of those lipstick colours on you!
I am in the minority as I will hardly lose any weight by being in a moderate caloric deficit without any exercise. Even if I move enough (but not doing exercise), my weight will not shift. I am petite (but not slim petite) and my body seems to be unnervingly energy efficient.
And contrary to popular opinion, heavy cardio does not increase my appetite at all. Quite the opposite, it reduces my appetite substantially (and your explanation on cortisol might be the reason, now I finally know why).
So the "just eat less to lose weight" or "you can't outrun your fork" advice doesn't work for me, and never has. Exercise for weight loss seems to be mandatory for my body.
Im the same. Diet alone gets about 4kgs off me and then it will not budge. I add the smallest amount of regular exercise & the weight starts to come off. I have to exercise to lose weight. Very annoying lol.
My problem with nuts is that I binge on them 😅Tried eating just a handful but it makes me crave more, while I can go without any at all more easily. And if I do binge it's 2k-3k calories in 20 minutes, easy. Even bingeing on candy I ate less calories than with nuts, because candy's too sweet for me to keep going but I don't have that problem with nuts.
But they're a healthy source of fat, just don't eat as many as I do and you'll be fine!
I just cut out pop and fast food and lost 15lbs. Didn’t do anything fancy at all. 😂
🙌
For most people that’s really all that’s needed!
Exactly. Giving up high sugar and over processed foods works. 👍
I’m a gym rat who runs and plays rec sports, who eats to fuel all my activities. I can’t fathom cutting out nuts or subsisting on just protein shakes/liquids.
The first video had popped into my feed recently and I clicked away so fast because I had just finished a call with my dietician where we talked about incorporating more nuts and seeds into my diet and all of the potential benefits of that! So im glad to see someone out here putting him in his place!
The protein shakes I drink literally say “THIS IS A SNACK” in big letters on the side of the cartons. They are not a meal, however, as a snack or part of a “girl dinner” I do find they help me stay fuller longer.
I once joined an online weight loss program which made me eat like this:
First 6 weeks - 3 protein shakes a day
3 weeks - 2 shakes, 1 meal
3 weeks - 1 shake, two meals
And then idk, they didnt tell me what to do anymore
Well I lost 40 pounds and guess what I gained them back within 2 years 😂
A calorie does not equal a calorie, I love that!!
6 protein shakes a day 🤢
When I was in college I volunteered for a study where I had to drink only ensure (and water) for three days and ten years later I still can’t stand it
wow that's dedication
@@AbbeysKitchen $50 in college was a big deal!
@@brightknight1965Still seems like too little for three days.
@@animeotaku307 it certainly feels that way now but at the time I was like, I don’t have to pay for food for three days and I get 50 bucks? I’m in! Ah to be young and dumb 😂
My digestion could never😂😂😂 whey protein is deadly to me
12:46 yeah I just did a “7-10 day fast”, and I did lose about 15 pounds. I had Covid, I was extremely ill. I completely lost my appetite and I sadly also lost my sense of taste and smell so I’m still struggling to eat, and only enjoy eating about 10% of the time. It fucking sucks. I feel like crap, I’m so fatigued and weak, and winded just walking up my stairs. I really want to go back to the gym but I can barely be on my feet for more than 20 min at a time. I can’t wait until I’m back to normal, it’s been over 2 weeks now 😢
The part about cortisol levels!!!! I honestly had no idea it’s post-exercise purposes. Thank you for educating people beyond the simplicities of Fit-stagram
Thank you so much for all your advice. You have helped me cut thru the bull and just get healthy. I've lost 26 pounds in the last 4 months and I feel great. I feel like my daughters got their mom back.
Thanks again 😊
I completely agree with you on the exercise it is not 50-50. Weight loss is all about your diet. And most people cannot exercise enough to keep up with the amount of food they eat, unless they have a calorie deficit. I mean it takes over 20 min of exercise just to burn off a cookie. People need to think about that. Exercise should be about the kind of body shape you want, getting your heart rate up, getting those endorphins, and feeling well. you should not use it for weight loss because in most cases you’ll end up injuring yourself and you’ll just put the weight right back back on bc you can’t exercise as hard. Plus most people don’t have as much time in the day to exercise unless it’s your job such as a personal trainer.
People should think of exercise for longevity and health rather than weight loss
"just trust me bro"
I always learn so much from this channel. Your content is just the best. Thanks for all the hard work and research Abbey
That first one hits me hard too because I've struggled with figuring out my diet due to a negative relationship with food. Just so tone deaf.
Not eating nuts doesn't resolve the situation for some people who do have eating disorders or like me, certain things can literally make me throw up if it hits my palet wrong.
I AM exploring options to try to eat better, filling, and healthier food.
The food aversion a week of protein shakes alone will cause me 🤢
Fascia release is amazing for many reasons - but immediate weight loss is not one of them lol. It’s a great tool to add into your routine among weightlifting etc for recovery purposes but I don’t see it doing much for weight loss lol.
It is my fav type of massage!! Not for fat loss!! It just feels so damn good!!
One time my coworker told me I shouldn't eat avocado with my lunch because it's too fat. I'm vegan and avocados are a go to for me even during weight loss lol
Long time watcher, first time commenting. Every time I get some silly ideas about what I should or shouldn’t eat, I watch one of your videos and get some sense knocked back into me! Meaning, love the channel! ;)
Topic request: Nutrition and supplement tips to fuel a passion for sport. For example, I’m an amateur MMA and exercise on top of my training. How can someone support a high impact sport through nutrition? What is a good diet to help keep yourself healthy in the long run? I tend to listen to my teachers and doctors rather than internet at large. But I’m curious to hear what you think.
I just discovered your channel and let me tell you, I’m obsessed. I am always looking for great nutrition info!!
Regularly watching your videos has made me so much more skeptical of diet culture and these anti-science tips. Thanks for another great video!
The advice in those claims hurt to listen to.😑I appreciate your extra sass. It really disturbs me how anyone, on the internet or otherwise, can present themselves as an expert on a subject with the health of the public on the line.
The quality of this video is top tier
“Sounds like a pretentious way of saying layperson!” Love it!
Hi Abbey.... I absolutely love your videos. They are so informative. Can you please do one on the best electrolyte to take to workout and which ones work while doing IF.
loving this info heavy format and loving your winter makeup! girl you could have both a science and a beauty channel.
aw thank you🥰🥰
I’m excited about going on a high protein diet while I’m focused on muscle growth postpartum!
Absolutely love your outfit and make up in this video abbey!
Thx Abbey for your thoughts on these whacky weight loss suggestions. The water one is the worst. Water is important but not to excess.
Hey! I just wanted to say I really appreciate educational videos like this fun and interesting! I want to be a dietitian and am going to study nutrition, you have helped me enjoy food and balance! Thank you❤
Love the video! (And your top!)
Thank you abbey for always reminding me to take care of myself! 💗
🥰🥰🥰
I love listening to you while working out 🏋️ thank you for your knowledge it’s gold and has helped me a lot
I do too! Also when I'm cooking and eating 😂
Hey Abbey! Thanks so much for sharing you (peer reviewed) sources! Ive seen many creators on the internet and folx, like Steve Zim, who mention "Natural Body Weight" or "Comfortable Body Weight", etc. What on earth is that about? If they exist, can they actually be changed? Is this bogis jargon? Any commentary on this would be helpful! :)
I use repayment food shakes more if I have become hyperfocused and forgot to eat.
Any recommendations for nut alternatives? I’m allergic to peanuts, most tree nuts and drupes so it’s difficult to get those in. Would pumpkin seeds work or what exactly are nuts good for (as in what’s the compound they contain that helps weight loss?)
Unfortunately some of these examples of fat shaming like in the first example is because shame to them was the only way they could do it. Positive reasons for weight loss are far greater motivators than shaming people. I am glad I found this channel.
Hi Abbey. First thing I love all your videos! You rock!! Secondly, I lost 80 pounds on the Lose It diet plan. Tracking calories, walk everyday. I eat everything I want, (as long as i stay on my calorie budget) no restrictions and I'm maintaining my weight.
After the holidays, I want to fast one day a week. What is your opinion on this?
Regarding the "water before eating" thing, I was trying to find a reasonable weight loss supplement last year and they all had instructions like "take half an hour before eating with a pint of water or more". I started drinking a glass of water (sometimes a pint, often less) a bit before each meal and didn't spend the £80 per month on sawdust pills, and I definitely started losing weight faster.
Love your sweater! Details?
Any thoughts on the Galveston diet?
Abby, this is TOTALLY unrelated, but I love your lipstick color on you!
I thought that too 😂
I have heard so many contrasting "studies" and opinions on nuts/seeds. I follow someone who helps with PCOS and hormone balancing and she is very against nuts in a diet. In contrast, my family doctor asked me stepdad to eat a handful of mixed nuts, sunflower seeds & chia seeds to help after lymes & some blood issues they found. I think it definitely depends on the information you're looking for but i just don't get why it's healthy to some and not to others
I'm 7 years older than Abbey but she gives off such awesome mom energy I feel like she's the person I'd call when I felt sick and wanted someone to take care of me. Lol
Thank you as always, Abbey, for your research-backed nutrition videos. There are so many misconceptions out there about healthy nutrition, many of which have stuck with me since my 90’s childhood. Thanks for helping break down those barriers!
On another note; I’m a parent of two young children and I’ve come to learn I can watch your videos even with them in earshot because you bleep swear words. Unfortunately today I had to rush to mute the video at one point because a clip you inserted into your video had f-bombs 😬.
Someone has to do something like Abbey's doing with the body building channels. I haven't heard such eating disordered talk since I was in psych in the early 2000s. It's insane and appears to now be moving toward women, especially in relation to using external substances.
Any video that does currently attempt to pull a part some of the issues always, ALWAYS, has a caveat of, "he/she obviously looks fantastic and has great genetics...." Imagine if Abbey was saying that about Eugenia Cooney, and then went on to explain a few of the dangers - we wouldn't listen!
Point being, if there's anyone out there, more artistic and confident than I, there is a need for a channel that you could create!!
I’m a 16 year old girl who’s struggling with feeling guilty about eating. Could you maybe make a video about how teen girl should eat?
The only advice I would give my teenagers, is to eat as many colours from the rainbow as possible. That does NOT mean to exclude everything else. It only means to add as many coloured fruits and vegetables as you can.
Also replying to add, is there a trusted adult in your life you could also mention this to? I'm glad you feel safe asking Abbey this question, and I also hope there is someone you can discuss these feelings with so you can identify where your guilt is coming from and eat well. Food is our bodies' fuel! Sending some big sis energy & wishing you well 💜
Honestly, addressing stress will get anyone furthest in their weight goals in either direction. Addressing stress and making sure we have the right treatment plan with our doctor has helped me gain weight and my husband lose weight without any major changes to exercise or diet. We did add nutrition and mindfully reduce things like red meat and sugar where it made sense too. But we have never cut anything completely or dramatically either
Abbey, the fitness tiktok community is now engaging in a "7 day no food challenge" for weight loss, wich is EXTREMELY dangerous. I think it's a really good topic for you to make a video about
I don't know about this one but most of those challenges are like 3 people with 500 people making reactions to them criticising them and then mainstream media gets hold of it and is like "the Swiss challenge: tiktok is telling your children to yodel in church"
I would really love to know how many of these weight loss "experts" have ever actually been very overweight and or obese?
can you please make a video about keeping fit with Crohn's disease 😢? I've been struggling with this chronic condition since my childhood, and now I have to reduce carbs (to build muscles), and nothing satisfies my appetite 😢
However upping your water intake CAN help your thirst ques if you arent drinking any or enough now! Ive fallen victim to drinking too much water. But i started off not drinking enough and it was the weight loss advice that partly lead me there. Tho now that i type that it was also to support sleep exersize and mood :)
I know it's off topic, but would you consider doing a video critiquing The Galveston Diet?
Eric is more then a bit off lol, and thanks for pointing out the specifics, when it comes to extremes (aka the 10K cal challenge) i've seen top of the top fail this (aka keltie tried it and failed, tennyson tried twice and failed, long story short i have yet to see anyone succeed outside of brian shaw (he's the strongest man on earth for a reason though, outside the one person anomally no one is doing this)).... thanks for the honest and true content, keep up the great work
The fork chase edit is the best thing I have seen in so long, I am a better person now that I have seen this
Was this a re-upload? I remember the first guy from a different video but it might be from a different UA-camr's reaction idk 🤷♀️
I’d really love for you to make a video like this about pcos weight loss tiktoks.
Is there something funky with the microphone?
Thank you!!!
I've been doing the thing where I drink to see if it's hunger and I swear I get hungrier because my body's like HELLO I DON'T NEED WATER
How can I find out how many calories my 11 year old son needs? He's 1,65m/5'5.
He's very overweight, has PE, swimming and an additional mobility training at school. And 2 times per week he's going to 2 hour rowing training. So I think he's ok on the workout part..?
The last one, the protein shake diet. Eating that much protein in one day is very hard on your kidneys.
As a chronically ill girlie I was told that water intake should be 4-8 250ml cups per day (depending on weather and what your doing etc) any more than that is a bonus but you don’t actually *need* like gallons and gallons.
Plus, although just water is ideal- things like squash and tea also counts within that 4-8 cups too! You just have to keep in mind that you may want a tiny bit extra liquid just because of the extra ingredients in something like squash could ever so slightly dehydrate.
The way my doc explained it was if 1 cup meant your body got 100% water then squash might be 95%. But ultimately it’s still a good amount of hydration so alls good 👏🏻
I only lost weight... when i started eating BALANCED. I was over exercising and under-eating. idk
I've lost 25lbs in 4 months (another 25 to go!) and here's how Ive hacked exercise to do it sustainably.
1. Plan for a very modest weekly loss via diet. I organized my food around 250 calorie deficit per day, equalling -0.5lb/week. Super doable for most anyone
2. Do 3-4 hard workouts per week, totalling about 4 hours or 1200 callories burned per week.
Now when you add those two together, you end up at around 0.75 lb per week loss in a way that is not just sustainable but also true fat loss. My body never feeaked out and thought it was starving and in reality I usually lost more than 1lb per week.
On top of that, I ended up taking a break due to an injury and the holidays. So for almost 2 months very little exercise and I didn't restrict or even track my food. Total weight gained? Less than a pound. My body had reset its metabolic set point with the very slow, mixed weight loss.
Some other hacks that likely helped: Massive increase in protein. I'm at 150 gr per day, about 35% of total calories. Waaaay more water. I drink 3-3.5 litres per day. Lots and lots of veg. (Nothing wring with fruit but I just don't like it. So spinach, carrots, and broccoli for me.)
After a 7 week break I've restarted my diet and exercise and after two weeks 1.8 lbs down. Turtling my way to my goal!
Im AuDHD and have already problems to distinct if I’m hungry or thirsty. Also forgot to hydrate all the time, that’s why I always need a full bottle of water next to me so that I actually drink something.
It also helped to have a full Glas of water to every meal I take. Plus portion control and eating loads of vegetables (and occasionally peanuts, cause they’re the only nuts I like and can eat - have problems with my jaw) helped me lose 10kg in 10 weeks this year.
That was nearly all the pregnancy weight that was left (from freaking 30kg I gained during my pregnancy in 22). And now I’m pregnant again and by week 14 still haven’t gained any weight, but baby is fine though! I’m just trying to avoid eating sweets that much… but it’s hard cause of my toddlers sleeping issues I only get 4 hours of sleep every night…. 😢
We would LOVE to know what Abbey thinks about K’achava… worth the hype??
As someone who experienced water toxicity from using the 'drink instead of eat' hack, I can confirm that drinking too much water is dangerous and not a long-term solution.
Ive been eating nuts every day for years but my weight has stayed in a healthy range the whole time. Am I doing it wrong???
That lovely Harvard study says it’s not the amount you’re eating sometimes, it’s where the calories come from. I typically eat less than 1000 calories a day. Always have my whole life because everyone has always made fun of me since I was little, and I don’t have a large appetite either, never have. Never lost weight even though doctors always tell me ‘have you tried’ and I give them the run down that I’ve always been heavy, I don’t gain weight, or lose weight. Only time I ever did was when I worked out hard and didn’t consume more than 700 calories. I managed to lose five pounds over two months. But walking 4 miles three times a week on top of lifting 10-50lbs at work all night without sitting 5 nights a week, that’s all that happened. 5lbs of weight loss. Couldn’t sleep. Was losing sleep just to go on those walks because I’m a midnight shifter. Then my watch tells me at work I burned 2,000 calories but I had eaten less than 1,100. Never lose. I give up. My body has a set weight.
You should probably go see some sort of specialist. That sounds like hypothyroidism and if you are genuinely eating that little, you're at severe risk of nutrient deficiencies.
Oh no 😩 bro how am I gonna focus on tasks with no norepinephrine?
Just because you count calories doesn't mean you should skip more calorie dense options like nuts but I just make sure to respect portion sizes and budget it . Some fat in your diet is essential . While I also agree that only drinking protein shakes it's not the greatest it' sounds like it's only meant to be a week-long fast and you could easily be consuming a lot more than a mere 600 or 700 calories a day depending on the brand and size of the drinks and whether you're having the recommended 6 a day as opposed to 4 .
Personally, I don't believe going on a liquid diet/fast for 7 days is necessary at all! For many, it can be the beginning of an eating disorder plus we know from science that your body/liver/system does not need a break... so why do it?
@@frankiefavero1666 People who are desperate to lose weight fast is my guess . I'm sure any crash diet could lead to eating disorders but they're not going anywhere as long as society holds to its beauty standards..
@@celestialcircledance true, except that you don't really lose weight fast, you lose water weight which then you put back on right away because you're starved! In the past I've done all kinds of diets, never liquid fasts for over 24 hours though, you can lose weight fast of you eat in a caloric deficit and exercise twice a day to speed up your fat burning 😊
@@frankiefavero1666 sounds right but a lot of people don't want to get too technical and just want to see the weight on the scale drop in time for their wedding or high school reunion , I'm definitely not advocating it .
I used to be on a mostly liquid diet a year and half ago, yeah i lost weight but it made my type 1 diabetes worse which put me into a diabetic ketoacidosis due to starvation and caused my seizures to happen more frequently. Water IS good for you, too much can hurt you.
could you do a video about the 5:2 intervall fasting method? It is some form of fasting, where you only eat 500-700 calories and I know your opinion about it but I heard a lot of "scientific" information about it which all paint a positive picture.
The problem with this kind of "information " is whether it's relevant to YOU. If the studies were conducted on middle aged, 300lb, diabetics at risk of losing limbs and a kidney, then it might work a treat.
People are presenting studies of very specific groups of people as if they're relevant to everyone, when they're very often not.
Anything where ppl are eating 500-700 calories is just starvation. Don't do it.
@@mikeymullins5305Unless you can't afford your groceries. Shits ridiculous.
If I drank 5 protein shakes a day. Id literally die of bloat or insanity 😂
It’s funny. I started this video while eating cashews and almonds 😂
Was it just my phone but The mic static was driving me crazy 😩
How about the fat in the diet of someone without a gallbladder? I’ve heard too much fat can be harsh on your liver
The best thing in that situation is to ask a dietician specialized in your condition. It depends on the person and the fats and your medical info is CRUCIAL to all nutrition advice if you are disabled in any way
Love your videos queen
A friend’s mom found a video that said oatmeal and grains aren’t good for you. Can you unpack that, please?
Abbey, is it normal to eat more before your period? I’ve been feeling very guilty about eating more.
Totally normal in my memory.
I believe so. She did a video on food tips for anyone with periods.
You should eat till your full. There's nothing wrong with not being hungry
Yes it’s normal, your progesterone levels rise before your period and that can make you feel hungrier
*imply, not infer. Someone or something else implies. You infer from someone or something else.
Love your look today. The hair and outfit really suit you
Jeepers some of these videos are crazy!
