    Amazing content! It took everything not to drop this comment mid video, I appreciated it so much! in the past the scale used to rule my every emotion, but when I really started implementing CD, I told myself I was going to look at the scale as just a form of data! Exactly what you said! And i would not let it dictate my emotions for the good or the bad. I weighed myself everyday , wrote it down , even tracked when my period started , one day I would drop 3 pounds the next I was up for a few days then I would go down but ultimately the trend was always going downward SW168- CW156 if I hadn't tracked everyday I would have never seen that, I learned so much. Thank you for your content! Its much appreciated!

    Haven’t lost a pound in 3 weeks. The scale went up 3 pounds too! I increased my workouts and added weight training yesterday. This video helps! I was starting to thing that there was something wrong with me.

    Yes this is happening to me. I have started weight training 3 days a week and walking every day and I’m gaining weight even though I am definitely in a calorie deficit. I’m trying to condition myself to do the 75 hard challenge after the holidays.

    Sustainability is the name of the game. Forget about dieting for x amount of months and then quitting all together just to start all over again. Find a way of eating that you can sustain for life, be in a calorie deficit when you need to lose the weight and then fo into maintenance. This is the best thing I've done in my life. Thank you Eric.

    Great video. I’m on my journey. My highest 278 pounds. And I got down to 248 pounds. 30 pounds lost. But this morning I got on the scale & gained 2 pounds. So I was really feeling discouraged. Because I know I’m doing my part right. I like to dance workouts & mix it with HIIT exercises too. But I can tell I slimed down. My clothes getting bigger on me. Everybody keep telling me I’m toning up. But I just wish the scale would move more though. But I’m going to keep going.

    Lack of sleep can raise blood pressure quite a bit, especially if it is over a long period of time
    I have sleep apnoea and use a CPAP machine. This keeps my blood pressure at a healthy level.
    If I ever have the flu or a cold and can no longer use the machine, even if it is only for a week or so, my blood pressure shoots up.
    If you even suspect that you might have sleep apnoea, check it out.

    Definitely going to start weighing in everyday, wish I didn’t listen to everyone saying once a week. Yesterday was my first month in a CD and I’m down -8lbs. I stopped comparing myself to others when I see they’re losing 20 lbs their first month on a CD. It can be discouraging thinking I’m doing something wrong when I’m not. Everyone’s different... I take pictures once a week and I see a difference for sure. I also feel better knowing you have to eat so many extra calories in order to gain one pound of body fat. My CD is 1,650 and ate about 2,200 cals one day and thought I’d be gaining body fat but I know now it takes way more than that. This makes me feel so much better, thanks again for another helpful and motivating video:)

    I really appreciate and love your context, but the "alot of HIIT cardio" was a blanket statement so that needed context. If you do it correctly and you do it maybe 1 to 2 times a week, actually it will not increase cortisol as much compared to strength training and low intensity cardio
