Dr Goldhamer spitting out straight FACTS ! The most common excuse I hear is " my husband/family" I lost 60 pounds and my ex husband never said I looked nice even ONCE, got angry when I kept on plan during a cruise ( super easy , they will make you anything you ask for) I tried on some old jeans from 10 years ago, he watched and said "you will never get those on"...when I easily zipped them up, he actually had to leave the room...p.s. about a year later I dropped 225 pounds of ugly fat in one day at the courthouse.
HA HA. Took me a minute to figure out how you dropped fat off at the courthouse. HEE-LARIOUS! OMG. Anyhow - as I was going to say . . . . Dr. Goldhammer doesn't pussyfoot around. Wow! But hey - he sure hit the nail on the head. My husband is all of that. He finds way to sabotage me. I find ways around him though. I definitely don't want to drop him off at the courthouse (yet, LOL). Oh man - that was a gem of a post. Love it.
@@socaldreamer3394 I am so sorry for your loss. We hope that people in our lives want to support our efforts to get healthy and join us. I am sorry your husband did not. Mine situation was different , mine felt anger and even rage that I went from a size 20 to an 8. He was actually shaming me for refusing to eat his take out food. I heard from a friend of a friend that my exs mother said he is now " unrecognizable" from his weight gain. We have to have good boundaries even with families regarding our food habits
I watch videos like this one to keep me motivated. Dr Mcdougall, Dr. Greger, Dr. Klaper, Dr. Fuhrman, Dr. Esselstyn, Thanks Chef A.J. you are Awesome!!
Please make sure you are getting proper nutrition; all the people you just mentioned are dogmatists who will never, ever recommend anything outside of their belief system, regardless of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Science moves on, and it's better to be right than consistent, and people like this will remain consistent until the bitter, diabetic end.
When I start to feel good, I get confident. When I get confident, I think I can eat xyz. When I eat xyz, cravings are triggered and things go downhill. Then the cycle is repeated. The statement that when the pain goes away, the motivation goes away is spot on!
I just lost 10 pounds in 13 days by being on a WFPB diet. Feel 80 percent better. Im living on potatoes, veggies and fruit. Im satisfied will meals but I still struggle with sugar due to emotions.. and I know it. It’s difficult but feeling better is so worth it
Don't worry all of your fruits are filled with sugar. Fortunately it's not quite as refined as Rush sugar and there's other things in there to slow it down when absorbing.
Omg I thought he was fighting with her when this 1st started! I just came here randomly to hear Chef AJ recipe ideas. He seemed like he was being antagonistic & trying to pick a fight. Then I got used to the way he talks. It turned out to be really sensible, & a valid message. Thumbs up
A lot of people have no self control. I knew about healthy eating since age 5. My Grandmother Had a massive heart attack at age 60...went on the Pritikin diet and live to 87 years of age. I was off and on eating a terrible diet until about 3 years ago. One year on McDougall and lost 50 pounds. Now doing Pritikin diet and feel great.
People need more of this. Call it Toughlove or whatever you want but giving your doctor a little card that says please don’t weigh me isn’t helping anyone involved
Thank you Dr Goldhamer. This is just what we need to hear. Say it like it is. I was wondering why my weight was increasing! Easy to think 'just a little bit won't hurt' - how wrong! Yeyy, this has motivated me back to where I was before I put on 10lbs. 😊
Dr. Goldhamer is dead serious about consistency in a health-promoting diet. People are not completely on board. Maybe not afraid enough? Or not motivated enough to be successful? Sometimes a change of friendships helps get the necessary support needed. I think deep down many people are not prepared for the doldrums of daily living. Keeping the focus is key.
Dr. Goldmammer sure don’t mess around! Just the facts! Love u Chef AJ I owe most of my healthy lifestyle to u! It was your videos here on UA-cam that got me started! I was a horrible eater on the SAD 😢 diet and I was sad! Thank you so much beautiful lady!
I really love his focus on the truth. There is no doubt people have a valid reason why they can’t do it but the truth is once you understand what’s really keeping you from doing it is the emotional problems and that one can do what one’s want despite of the valid problems, then the issues become how to change the way one’s think. That’s powerful to understand and that’s what matters. Thanks chef AJ for having him on the show - he’s quite a personality that doesn’t believe telling people what they want to hear but the actual truth.
The personalities in this space come across as SO HONEST, especially these two in this this video. Say what you want about Chef AJ. Say what you want about Alan Goldhamer. These people are as genuine AS IT GETS. Love these people 😘
Ive read the comments and there are a few here that are negative and dont like Dr G .... but its like Jack Nicholson shouts in A Few Good Men , ' You want the truth? YOU cant handle the truth!!! '
The scariest man I ever met…and I come from Hollywood shark-infested scary waters! Thanks AJ and love this man and his total commitment and dedicated work to optimum health…True North is in my will, and I sure wish I lived next door to his dining room at TN! Eating healthy would be a hell of a lot easier! My best to everyone working there with Dr. Scary!
❤❤❤ LOVE Dr. G ❤❤❤ Dr. G Probably the best motivating PB speaker on earth 💪🔥 Dr. Doug L is literally just right behind him... 😊 Sorry Doug... you may beat Alan at 🏀 basketball - but Alan is a 100% take "no prisoners" ass-kicker... And Doug, remember NO more carrot cake damn it ! ❤
Dr Goldhammer is blessed that he doesn't suffer from an addiction. If it was as simple as just not giving in to addictive cravings, there would be no obesity, alcoholism, or drug addiction, nor any need for treatment for those. Perhaps a little empathy and understanding on his part for those who are suffering from an addiction would be more helpful than his demeaning approach.
I don't believe he's demeaning the struggle, as he said, "It's HARD!" And his book/lectures on WHY people get addicted to food, clearly delineates the best way out of those addictions. You might think he's demeaning, but the way I see it, he's the bitter pill food adducts need; his direct and unabashed message is - "yes, you're addicted. But what are YOU going to do about it?" I have a profound respect for his direct and and COMPLETELY unambiguous delivery.
@@peter5.056 I completely agree. It is hard!! AND it can be done! I needed to hear this. I have had binge eai=ting disorder since I was 12 years old and now I am 74 years old. It is hard. Very hard. And not impossible. I so needed to hear this.
Very useful for me to hear! The question could have been from me. I feel I eat so small amounts of things I shouldn't eat, that it doesn't make sense to me that it's the cause of my weight gain. However, of course it is like he says. If I was served only wfpb sos free food I wouldn't have these extra kilos.
Lovely Chef Aj , ALL your videos are A* Brilliant. My favourites are usually Dr Lisle BUT this one.... THIS IS THE BEST ONE !! Dr Goldhamer for President 😸❤❤and Dr Lisle should be Vice
Love Dr Goldhamer. Every time I watch him I get so entertained. Here's a guy speaking the truth to a bunch of people who want to hear only lies. I'm watching this while taking my first nourishment after a 5 day water fast. This bowl of shredded cabbage with carrots and apple tastes gourmet. I made a dressing out of sweet potato, lemon juice, chia seeds and half a date. Wow. If I could afford it, I'd go do a long fast at True North.
I recently went on vacation and found so much I could eat! 💜😎 For breakfast I had oats made with water, beautiful fruit, and water sautéed vegetables at the omelette station. For lunches and dinners made beautiful salads and added beans or lentils from the salad bar!
Thank you chef AJ. Thanks to you i learn to cook w/ no oil other than steaming, boiling & roasting. I totally agree w/ dr Goldhammer that pain is a very effective motivator. I had my tongue removed due to cancer & i was recommended by my personal trainer to eat 80:10:10 whole food plant based. When i struggled to keep my weight he told me to eat more sugary fruit and lay off the oil. It did help. Whenever i fell off the wagon, the excruciating pain kept me honest to get right back on that oil & minimum fat wagon.
I consider myself very lucky. If I eat a bag a oily tortilla chips, I suffer for the next 6 days with asthma. So, staying on the straight and narrow is (quite literally) a breath of fresh air. No willpower involved! I suppose your standard American would feel the same way about a salad made of poison ivy and poisonous caterpillars; they wouldn't need ANY willpower to not eat it. That's how I view the crinkly bags of toxic crap, as poison which will cause me immediate pain.
This was so important for me to hear! Thanks so much, Chef AJ, for making this available to us! Dr. Goldhamer sure doesn't mince his words, but sometimes that is exactly what we need to hear! Out with the "energy vampires"!!!!!!
It's so weird. When I was young (early 20s) I ate very little to keep my weight down to near model weight. Things like 1/2 piece of toast and 1/4 cup of orange juice for breakfast, a cup of tomato soup and a 1.5-oz. Hershey bar for lunch, drinking coffee with coffeemate and sugar during the day (1-2 cups), unlimited saccharin-sweetened sodas (which I now cannot stand to this day, over four decades later) and often skipped dinner. Since I had three jobs I got really wound up and would often end the day with a shot of tequila with a beer chaser. If I did have dinner, it was very, very little to the point I cannot really remember eating dinner at all except on rare dinner dates. I did that for a year and a half, and it wasn't hard. What I cannot understand is: HOW did I do that? Why can't I do something like that today only eating and drinking healthful foods and beverages? I am terribly overweight and I did lose over 20 lbs. in a few months on the SOS-free diet, but once the holidays hit I have not gotten back to eating that way. Back in -- when was it? maybe 1975-76 -- it was not hard to eat so little. I realize I was on a very unhealthy diet, but at the time I felt fine. I really need to go back to SOS-free. I guess if I just keep dusting myself off and getting back on track every time I blow it, it will eventually become second nature. I HOPE...!!!
I don't think I ever heard of Dr Goldhamer before and I think he was very rude. He didn't have to keep interrupting Chef AJ and jump on her every time she gave an excuse that her clients and or followers were giving her.
I dont think he meant to be. I think he is so passionate about what he does and probably frustrated about hearing the same old excuses for years when he knows these people could feel so much better. And he Wants to help.....i understand why you feel that way but i think you mis understand his behaviour. Its coming from a place of compassion, or why would he bother? ❤
He has helped thousands of people with dreadful diseases back to health, so I guess his approach is successful, and most people can handle direct talk and the truth.
I am actually at TrueNorth Now and watched an excellent lecture from Dr. Goldhammer today. I wonder if you make a bread with a whole grain that hasn’t been turned into flour, like with whole oats or buckwheat, would that still not be acceptable? I will need to find out.
My weight fluctuates from about 0-10 lbs above my "optimum" point. I have come to the conclusion that the single biggest factor in that fluctuation is how much whole grain bread I have. This is while on a WFPB oil free low sugar low salt diet.
yah...he was interruptive BUT made very clear and awesome points....."excuses, excuses" JUST DO IT! Good man! and YEP...hello on the pain....which I've never had at 64 ... but if you can relieve your own PAIN by what you eat, WHY NOT KEEP DOING IT!!!!?????
I was just thinking earlier about in what circumstances it is useful to have disagreeable personality types, I feel like this clip just reinforces my thoughts, sometimes you just need people who will tell the truth straight up, get right to the point and not sugar coating things :D Especially for people who are agreeable, open to experience and fairly low in conscientiousness, sometimes a Goldhamer is needed to set us straight :D
Think of the people that he has seen that are in such miserable conditions because of their diet. All the diseases that can be avoided. I understand why he is so strict. Better to know the harsh truth rather than hang on to false hope!!!
Thanks. I used to be terrified of this doctor to the point I couldn't even watch him on UA-cam. 😂😂 I cleaned up my act and now he doesn't seem so scary anymore. 😃
I thought Dr Goldhamer was very obnoxious when he did not let Chef AJ finish the question, and sounded angry and defensive. That is not the way to educate people.
If you feel bad ( trauma ), all the more reason to take good care of yourself so you're mentally stronger so you can deal with your emotions in a better way .... I know !
The Mayo Clinic Diabetic Diet written by Paul D. Hensrud can easily be adapted to be vegan. I lost weight on this diet and it is the easiest diet I have ever tried to follow. Highly recommend this diet.
What does Dr Goldhammer say about persons who eat the health promoting diet but isn’t loosing weight? I’m at 155 lbs and 5’4 at 58 but the pounds don’t release - I follow chef AJ’s and Dr McDougalls way.
@@CHEFAJ Assuming that Jacqueline is actually following Goldhamer's advice, my advice to her would be "the caloric density of your diet is too high, and you need to lower it if you want to lose weight."
What I would do is log all good and drink and then have s.b. check for errors. Also, get checked for illnesses. Hypothyroidism is a big one, but there's more. Go see a doctor's. 🤷
This guy is rude! Obviously has NO EATING ISSUES, or compassion! He did little to help me understand my problems because of his lack of understanding.. all his video did for me was to hit the STOP 🛑 button!
@@suewilkinson9629 I respond to people who are direct and honest and not those who coddle people who want to continue to make excuses which is why I am extremely fit at age 62.
I didn’t hear that. I heard avoid refined carbs, salt, oil and sugar. Choose whole or minimally processed plant food, including grains, with no added salt, oils or sugars.
No the idea is to,eat whole intact grains like brown rice, millet, quinoa, etc. the more you finely grind and process a grain, the less healthy it is and the more irresistible it becomes to our tastebuds.

Do it right, gain the health. Rationalise your intake then the health problems comeback.

@@peter5.056 hahahaha love it!
I needed to hear this!!!!!!
Thank you!
All true! No excuses.
I love his 6 week challenge idea.
If you feel bad ( trauma ), all the more reason to take good care of yourself so you're mentally stronger so you can deal with your emotions in a better way .... I know !
This guy does NOT listen. He could make a good lawyer.
He's heard it all!
I agree with the doctor, I was finally able to make it work for me.
The Mayo Clinic Diabetic Diet written by Paul D. Hensrud can easily be adapted to be vegan. I lost weight on this diet and it is the easiest diet I have ever tried to follow. Highly recommend this diet.
🔥
The truth hurts -- It's hurting me right now. Thank you Dr. Goldhamer.
Luv this guy!!😂
Watched it twice. Motivating!
Love your top AJ you got style love the video
But it’s hard to eat whole food with my IBS
Thank you 🤗
Tell em Dr. GOLDHAMMER
It’s all about discipline. My husband eats Bologna, cheese & white bread. He buys it. I make my own food and it is WFPB!
Well done I admire your attitude... I want to be the same , my partner eats junk and I sometimes join in .
👍
Anytime you try to cut out entire food groups dietary adherence is going to go way down in the long term.
This guy needs to quit interrupting AJ and at least let her finish her sentences.
What does Dr Goldhammer say about persons who eat the health promoting diet but isn’t loosing weight? I’m at 155 lbs and 5’4 at 58 but the pounds don’t release - I follow chef AJ’s and Dr McDougalls way.
He would say you are not following the diet.
@@CHEFAJ Assuming that Jacqueline is actually following Goldhamer's advice, my advice to her would be "the caloric density of your diet is too high, and you need to lower it if you want to lose weight."
What I would do is log all good and drink and then have s.b. check for errors.
Also, get checked for illnesses. Hypothyroidism is a big one, but there's more. Go see a doctor's. 🤷
This guy is rude! Obviously has NO EATING ISSUES, or compassion! He did little to help me understand my problems because of his lack of understanding.. all his video did for me was to hit the STOP 🛑 button!
Please Dr. Goldhamer, must you appear & sound so oppositional & interrupting??? Cutting off Chef AJ is not pleasant to hear!
It would sound nicer, if he preached moderation, yeah?
Check your blood sugar, Paulette. Have a potato and chill out.
Goldhamer is like a freezing cold shower after getting too hot. A real pit bull for health!
This guy is super rude, aggressive, and judgmental. I wouldn’t take his advise on anything.
He only has stone cold facts to offer. He's not trying to win a likeability contest, he just wants people to know why they're fat and sick.
Your loss then. The truth hurts.
@@bonniemartin4232 Well if that’s what you respond to, go for it..
@@suewilkinson9629 I respond to people who are direct and honest and not those who coddle people who want to continue to make excuses which is why I am extremely fit at age 62.
@@bonniemartin4232 Direct and honest I can appreciate. Rude, aggressive and borderline abusive not so much.
Let’s make people fat. Oh mg is that good. I have to remember this.
I don’t have willpower!!
Did he say no grains at all?
I didn’t hear that. I heard avoid refined carbs, salt, oil and sugar. Choose whole or minimally processed plant food, including grains, with no added salt, oils or sugars.
Ok, thanks. I do all that. Still have heartburn though and wondering about the grains.
Dr. is on fire today. Love his honesty. And he has the best skin. Thanks AJ 👌🏻👍👌🏻
No the idea is to,eat whole intact grains like brown rice, millet, quinoa, etc. the more you finely grind and process a grain, the less healthy it is and the more irresistible it becomes to our tastebuds.
No I think he said no refined flour.
