Great tips! 1. eat only when hungry (go from food scarcity mindset to food abundance) - anticipate hunger and eat before you're very hungry. Take 20-25m to eat (not less) - and eat WITHOUT screens 2. change relationship to food (eat out of hunger most of the time, not out of cravings or emotional eating). 3. View exercise as a way to play and relieve stress (not just to burn calories). 4. journey mindset vs goal/perfectionist mindset.

Same here. But I have reversed those fortunes. I started making headway at age 66. Now I am 68 and am back fitting into my pre-40-year-old sizes again. You don't have to wait as long as I did if you don't want to.
I’m 46 and used the tips from here to lose over 20 pounds last year and keeping it off so far, even during the holiday season at the moment. 😊 The habits that I’ve built in feel natural at this point.
Quit sugar. I broke my sugar addiction last year and started to notice weight loss after just 1 week. After 3 weeks, my mother asked me if I had lost some weight. I lost around 35 pounds last year (typical is to gain 5 pounds per year) and about 2 dress sizes, and that's the only thing I intentionally changed. (Unintentionally, when I stopped sugar, I stopped craving fast food as well, so the quality of food I ate went up.) Also, all my bloodwork numbers improved. Triglycerides are back down to normal (they'd been high for a while), bad cholesterol is normal, and good cholesterol is normal. I was pre-diabetic (which is what prompted me to get off the syrup), and that number improved as well, although I'm still sitting right on the line for being pre-diabetic. I already do 16:8 intermittent fasting every day, but in the new year, I'm adding three 20-24 hour fasts (OMAD) per week to work on that number some more. (I don't know if I can go low carb; I'd rather skip meals than eat all of my meals without carbs.) Other benefits to getting off sugar: joint pain, including plantar fasciitis in my feet, that came on randomly and lasted for months without relief, went away after about a month. Also after a month or two, evening swelling of my feet stopped. And I suddenly started going to bed on time, which allowed me to wake up on time, instead of being on the never-ending treadmill of going to bed late and getting up late or not getting enough sleep. But even before that kicked in, I stopped getting sleepy every afternoon. Now, I get sleepy when it's time to sleep. Plus I have more energy in general and found myself getting a bit more done. I let myself go for about 2 weeks at Christmas; the parties and sweets put out everywhere in the office was just too much temptation. But once it was over, I was ready to get clean again. My sleep schedule is off again, my feet were starting to swell a bit, and my energy is down. So there's no question sugar is responsible for making me feel worse, so that makes it easier to stay off of it.
@hazel8145 A sh*t ton of willpower. First, get all the sweets out of your house. Then just don't let yourself go buy any (avoid those aisles at the store). Lastly, stuff yourself so you don't want anything. After eating dinner, as soon as I wanted sugar, I made myself a bacon sandwich. Then I was so full, I lost most of my craving for something sweet. After about 3 weeks, I was detoxed. I could look at sweets at work or in the grocery store and not want them 95% of the time.
That's wonderful! Congrats! I also quit sugary and premade store-bought cookies and bread. By cooking meals and baking my own sugar-free cookies, pancakes, bread, and other delicacies, I have also lost 25 pounds! I have been vegan for years but it wasn't until I began a strict and fun health-tracking system that I was losing weight. Now that I am at a comfortable number I plan to keep up with my daily routines and not change them. It's all about consistency and patience.
@@hazel8145 Don't buy or eat *anything* with added sugar on the label for a starter. Make sure you don't eat any naturally included sugar without the fiber (don't drink juice, but eat the orange). You will find that things that didn't taste sweet before now do. Once you have that as a habit, try only eating the recommended daily allowance for fruits. Take it a step at a time and know that the withdrawal period is temporary.
As a slim-all-my-life 60 yr old I agree with all of this but I highly recommend weight training, or at least body weight training, to keep your bones strong! Nicely done!
Food scarcity mindset is SO hard to overcome when the scarcity started as a pre-pubescent who was starved by her mother in the 1970s… There’s been studies by eating disorder researchers in neurobiology who replicated this in rats and gave them binge eating disorder by underfeeding them before puberty!
OMG yes! My mom use to say "We are all fat, we're all going on a diet", but she was actually the only one that needed to go on a diet lol I see my friends who were never deprived of food (any type of food) and they are all skinny. I remember one of my friends, she always had candies at her house, she was so skinny lol I can't blame my mom, I know she didn't realize what she was doing was bad. Today, both my brother and I are struggling with food and weight. I don't wanna do this with my daughter, so I am very careful and never deprive her or avoid types of food. But I do talk about it with her though.
dont forget when you are scared of something which does not kill you only way to overcome it is to went through it thousands of times. So you should probably try to be hungry for as much time as you can . Not for losing weight but for overcoming. Then just eat normal with with less calories.
I'm so sorry that happened to you. Abuse or extreme buy-in to thin worship? Either way, that sucks. I'm heavier than I wish to be but I'm never going to give the scale too much power in my daily life. There is so much more to life.
Been thin all my life (I'm 63, 5'10" never weighed more than 158lbs) and this is all so true. I don't snack, I don't exercise except gardening and for fun (I HATE going to the gym!!!), I don't eat after 6PM, 95% of my food is consumed during meals, I'm okay with being hungry for a while, I don't default to food for self-comforting... What you are saying is spot on. Another point about meals: I frequently only eat two meals. They may be very fattening meals, it doesn't matter. Most of my Fluffy friends exercise intentionally, going to the gym etc, but they snack. They have strong emotional attachments to food. I have some too, but I don't use food to comfort myself. Very good video. One of my Fluffy friends has found that eliminating oxalate-containing foods has been helpful. But that is another whole topic.
Sorry. It works for you but not for everyone. I am doing all that u are already doing but still remain fat. Only when I started strenght training, then only I started losing the kilos, but very slowly.
@@priyaskaccts7827 I am sorry, I know it's very triggering. I was agreeing overall that being thin, the habits mentioned in this video are ones I've had most of my life. I have friends who don't seem to lose weight no matter what, and I know it's really frustrating. Keto, carnivore, so on and so on... it's such a struggle, especially considering the rampant hypothyroid that affects so many women.
Yep you're one of those people I call 'naturally' thin. Like my friend who'll happily have one biscuit then say that's enough whereas I'll finish the whole packet. And unlike other friends who are thin but constantly struggle with it, go keto or whatever, are miserable half the time and can't stick to it!
Regarding food abundance mindset- I've noticed that I ate LESS the few times I stayed at ask you can eat hotels!! When I knew food was around all the time, I didn't feel the need to eat too stay full. It was interesting to notice, cause it doesn't really make sense that I would do that in my apartment when it's not like I would have to go hungry anyway. But it was clear that this was something influencing my eating habits.
As a guy, I have maintained the same weight for about a decade now. Turns out I was borderline doing intermittent fasting during this time since I was a lazy student. However, what initially dropped my weight by 10kg over just a few months was cutting out almost all milk chocolate and candy as well as starting working out. If you can substitute sweets for berries and fruit as well as start out with some light muscle exercises, you'll be half way towards your goal in no time imo. With that said, I've never been overweight, but when I hit my 20s I started gaining weight fast which pushed me to make a few lifestyle changes.
So true. Better food makes a huge difference. My husband and I can control the amount of fat, sodium, and sugars we eat because we most often dine at home. Less bloating, fewer cravings, more satisfaction, and we can manage our weight better even without making any other changes. Being retired helps, it wasn't always easy to do while working and caring for aging parents.
Absolutely! Eating whole foods has been the breakthrough for me. Whole, unprocessed food keep you full until the next meal. This is the first time in my life that I don’t snack - simply because I’m full so I don’t even want a snack. I didn’t know making such a small change could change my entire life.
emotional eating was a big one for me and I traced it back to my mom using food as reward or consolation when I was little. Bad day, scratched knee? Get something nice to eat, maybe a little extra dessert or an extra snack. Stress? Get something nice, maybe a little extra dessert. I deserved that, right? Celebration? Celebrate and reward with really nice food and sweets. I basically always had a reason to go for the calorie dense, unhealthy food no matter how my day went. Even when eating normal portion sizes (which made me struggle because unhealthy food keeps you hungry) I gained weight because the calorie density/nutrient ratio was completely off the rails.
Another tip: bring/ask for a takeaway container at restaurants! I’m the only friend who does this and I have no idea why you wouldn’t want to get your moneys worth and have a delicious lunch the next day instead of stuffing yourself silly
I don't walk 10,000 or even 6,000 steps per day. I'm too busy and it takes a long time to walk that many steps! I eat almost every meal in front of a screen because I live alone and also because I multitask because there aren't enough hours outside of work to watch the podcasts and other things I want to watch to learn new things. But I don't eat out of boredom or stress and i usually only eat when I'm hungry. I think a lot of people were conditioned to not listen to their body. A woman once asked me, "How do you know you've eaten enough?" I thought that was really sad. Another thing she mentioned that I do is usually I will automatically eat something light for dinner if I had a large lunch. I also tend to eat a large breakfast, medium lunch, and light dinner, gradually reducing the size of my meals as the day wears on and my metabolism slows down for the evening. I think I have always automatically done these things because I listen to my body instead of letting outside influences dictate what and when I eat. I've stayed thin my entire life with the exception of a period of time when I had some health problems and couldn't exercise at all and my metabolism slowed down due to the illness. Once I healed I was back to being thin again.
Stress/ depression eating can be a hell of a habit, look for good habit switches. I love music, the angrier the better. Whenever I have a shit day, instead of coming home and eating junk while watching Netflix like I use to, I go into my room turn out my lights and listen to some of my favorite angry metal/punk Cds. It's been a really good habit switch for me. Try to find a good non food way to deal with those shit days.
I found that I also had the feeling that I wouldnt cope with being hungry however once I did feel hungry I began to enjoy the feeling as I thought I was losing weight because I was hungry. All a bit mad, but once I got used to being hungry it became easier.
Love how you've incorporated these visuals.Very educational. I think my issue is I'm afraid of hunger... that feeling is ALL I can feel when it happens (other times I don't feel hunger for days on end, but will snack out of boredom / cravings. ADHD & Autism is a wild ride! That said, I'll be monitoring my portion sizes as I think it's the easiest way I can lose weight.
You're totally right. Us neurodivergent people are less likely to eat something just out of hunger. As a person on the autism spectrum myself, there's no way I'd ever be satisfied with just eating a cucumber even I'm starving. And I"m starting to think it's possible that our divergent bodies might be giving us stronger cravings to ensure we at least eat something, even if that something ends up being a bag of potato chips, and as a result- we tend to eat more out of cravings then hunger.
Very true. It’s also unpleasant if you’re not used to it (or even if you are) plus it’s a signal from our body so we don’t starve. We need to retrain our minds to be okay with it. I think her advice to make hunger a goal is great. I’m going to try it. (I’m in maintenance but have to be vigilant)
The thing is, what we think of as hunger is not actually hunger. It is the sensations that your body sends when your stomach shrinks down to normal size after having been expanded from a large meal. Real hunger doesn't come until days after not eating, and is expressed in physical weakness.
As a person who always has been skinny, I can say, that this is probably true, as I also have these habits in my daily life. I only eat when I'm hungry - usually that's around 11 am, then around 5 -7pm, so mostly only 2 meals a day. But the meal in the evening is usually large with at least 2 portions. Sometimes I have cravings and snack a whole pack of nuts in the evening - that happens maybe once a week, so most of my food is consumed during meals. I also don't do any explicit sport, but I often dance around my apartment or go to work by bike. Im at 56 kg (124 lbs) since i am 17 (and I am 34 years old now).
For me, intermittent fasting works. I wake up, have some black coffee and start my day. I don't eat anything until dinner, when I freely eat enough to satiate me. I try to limit my eating-time to dinner, though I do graze a bit after dinner. As maintenance, I do this whenever the scale says that my weight has crossed into alarming territory. When I get back down to where I want to be, I resume eating in a more-or-less normal manner, though having acclimated my body to intermittent fasting, I eat with more discipline than I would have in the past. Intermittent fasting has the advantage of not permitting any cheating. You are either eating or you are not. No fudging possible.
Cravings can also be a very good indication there is a nutritional deficit. Our bodies are smart we crave salty, bitter, sour, sweet, for good reason! That’s the biggest reason I stay under 130 at 5’4, I listen to what my body needs and I incorporate it into my meals efficiently so that I don’t snack later.
I’ve been underweight all my life. Only gained healthy weight during my 40s. The things I notice friends do which I never do is: 1- Eat when they are stressed at their desk rather than going for a mind clearing quick walk even if just to the cooler 2- Always spend time sitting in cafes with food displayed in glass counters 3- Eat when bored rather than fill their boredom with a non food related activity (Gym, hike, swim, museum, read etc) 4- Do not have an eating schedule. I know that I will need food every 4 hours, and can easily fit in my 3 daily meals between my activities 5- Feel like snacking is a must. Thin people do not snack, because it messes up their 4 hr eating routine. I don’t mean to be insensitive, but I notice thin people tend to always have varied non food reliant activities which engross them and fill those vacant spaces of their minds. Leaving no room for anything else.
I found this very helpful! Stress and boredom eating have been my biggest challenge! I’m going to be very mindful of this and have a PLAN in place!! Thank you for the Awareness!! 🥰
1. Why do people always think to be on a diet means carrots and salads? Why not just eat what others are eating- just eat a smaller portion/serving….especially when you have a family.
I used to smoke in the past and I had friends who only smoked at parties and going out in the weekends. It’s the same with eating I realize, I kept smoking 24/7 while they didn’t.
There is no model fr keeping u thin.. Find out ones own way to.. bcs body is different metabolism is diff.. All animals eat only whn they are hungry.. Only animal that eats with mind is human.. Listen to ur body.. Accept its intelligence.. It hs itsown memory
There is no habits or tricks. If you are naturally skinny it means you don't have to do anything or put any effort. If you have concentrate on it it's not "naturally".
I have the opposite problem. I struggle to keep above underweight. If I'm sitting at a meal with people, I can't believe how much food they can eat. I try to keep up, but I fail.

@Overwatch2003 no, that was the American food. Larger portions and ingredients that are not allowed in Europe as they are considered harmful to humans. Have you known that American food is not allowed in Europe? They have to change recipes if they want to introduce their products into the European market.
@@Overwatch2003 Actually it is not the genes that make the difference it is the habits. May be eating, may be moving. I always think that I eat a lot and people who are having dinner with me may come to that conclusion, too, but when we got overnight-guests at home I see that over the days I move more and eat less than them. Never underestimate small differences, they accumulate in a year.
wow thank you these are amazing tips that I hadn't really found anywhere thank you! I should rewatch it every few days to really remember them and stick to them thank you!
Re: weight loss goals: I am working on losing a lot of weight I put on this summer due to 2 major stressors, one we moved, two we were helping get relative into assisted living who didn't really want to do that (but who does). I already had established motives for exercise that were not 'for weight loss' : we enjoy doing vacations where we do excursions such as hiking or walking around a city and that becomes more difficult both with weight and being more out of shape. So staying in shape is about being able to do what we enjoy. I have also found that it's easy to go grab a snack when I'm actually just thirsty, so I try to check for that. Less crumbs on keyboard if you get a mug of something rather than crackers.
I'm a thin person, always been at a good weight or even slightly underweight. None of the doctors said it was an eating disorder but I was a terrible eater as a child. I eat only when I'm hungry. I use the Buddhist 60-40 metaphor. Your stomach should be 40 percent full with solids. 30 percent more with water. And the last 30 percent empty. And the next thing is to eat slowly. I eat very slowly because I just find it difficult and boring. I take a stroll or brisk walk after every meal. And lastly, small portions. Put them in smaller plates. If you put more salt in your meal, you get full faster (don't go overboard). Chew gum, drink water, milk or tea before each meal.
I noticed a difference in my early 50s now--gained weight during COVID,and it isn't "dropping" in ways like I used to be able. I've reluctantly been trying IF out of desperation. For me the equation seems to have changed.
I’ve been slender all my life - with no eating restrictions ! Crazy! BUT now as I’m getting older it seems every little nibble hangs on my waist. It’s a challenge for me because I’d experienced no restrictions before ... I could snack and even drink coco (caffeine) before bed and sleep with NO PROBLEMS! Lucky BUT now unlucky because it’s a challenging habit to break. I eat 3 meals but each meal is spread over an hour … eating one serving, then another then the rest. So I feel like I’m eating all day long - when before I ate when it was convenient or I was hungry. I hate eating cold food so that’s why I might have 3 small servings over a one hour period of time. I’m working on losing that infamous 10 pounds!!!😠
Interesting, I’ve been doing this my whole life without realizing it. It was only society who told me I “HAVE TO” eat 3 square meals or eat breakfast even though I wasn’t hungry at the moment.
I think our cravings may be somewhat different too? Like sure, most of my cravings are for unhealthy things, like chocolate or potato chips. But sometimes I eat a slightly better alternative, like chocolate oat cookies or salted peanuts and my craving is gone. But then again, I do get cravings for 'normal' food (not snacks) just as often. Like, I crave spaghetti, so that's what I cook for dinner tonight. Or like right this very minute: for the first time in my life, I am frying cauliflower on butter for breakfast!!! I was talking with my friend yesterday about various recipes and she reminded me I haven't eaten a cauliflower for waaay too long. I came come late last night - too late to cook anything, so I went and bought a cauliflower first thing in the morning and decided to have it for breakfast, just like that. It's funny how simple it is, and sooo tasty at the same time!
I used to cope with some negative emotions with food and celebrate with it. I didn't feel hunger, ever, though. I had to go gluten and dairy free and that ook a toll on my food cravings, because I was never hungry and food wasn't appetizing I started loosing weight and I had a ton of hypoglycemias. I have worked a lot to feel hunger again and now the sensation is horrible. Part of my work has also been to enjoy food again. I gained weight and now I'm regulating to lose some, while maintaining my hunger signals
At 60 years old I’m just learning how lucky I am. I’ve always been underweight or average. If I’m stressed food repulses me. It can take me days to start eating correctly if I get very upset. If I eat too much sugar or fats I feel terrible. I’m very reactive to artificial chemicals in food, so I rarely eat junk food. My cravings are healthy foods like salad. I take forever to eat, which is why eating is a hassle. I’m not the kind of person who can eat on the run. It bothers me to stop what I’m doing to eat. I like being active with everyday accomplishments. I like working out too, but I don’t do it as often as I should. My workout goals are to increase strength, build muscle, heart health and keep my lungs healthy, not to lose weight. It completely freaks me out to get too full. It gives me anxiety. Any other weirdos out there like me? 😂
There is so much BS online on the subject. And here is your video, at the very first habit it hit home instantly. Like I eat before going to a buffet where I'm pretty sure to overeat to prevent it and it fails every single time...
Am skinny and 40. I Just make sure i eat nothing until 1PM. and nothing after 7 PM. It takes discipline. Plus i put a tablespoon of vinegar in my one glass of water before eating. i dtink at least a total of 1.5L of water (i dont put vinegar in these glasses) all morning before my 1PM meal. making sure my urine is ALWAYS clear. I havent drank sugary drinks like coke in a year, Preferring tea with no sugar even when am at a restaurant. I dont even bother to go to the gym. I just walk to anywhere unless i think i will be late.
In my family, we tend to be underweight and to lose weight as we get older., this is also happening to me, but I recognize that I eat very small portions and I never eat out
It is interesting because I always feel hungry after 5-6 hours, and during the between two meal, I do not want to eat anything till the next meal I feel full. Cravings is not a thing for me
Walking is the easiest exercise. I ususall do 5 to 6 thousnad steps an some mild dancing. I try to do a 14 hou intermittent fasting fom dinner(7pm) to Breakfast (9-10 am)
I know I'm eating out of cravings. I set guides for myself, and then I just dont listen to my rules. I just don't care...but then I do and I'm just getting further down the hole.
Great advice! Especially remembering that the human body is designed to be able to fast for many hours between meals. We can ask leave the snacks at home :)
sugar, alcohol, bread , trans fats are the worst for me. The more junk I eat the more I want it. I'm almost 60 and it's a battle lol. I'm aware though and food prep and exercise most days.
i'm thin whole life too...body fat sub15%...lean...i only eat when i'm starting to feel hungry...i don plan to eat really n hunger is not planned or in thought...u got it right in the beginning but over-complicated it...just eat when hungry n don worry abt hunger...tats hw humans evolved from millenias ago...hunter gatherers!storing up food was an after-thought for emergencies!we now r planning every meals!
I’m 74 and I wish I had all the time back where I obsessed about my weight. Just enjoy life and be happy. Life is too short for self hate and extreme dieting
Thank you. I really love all the information. I would request, please give up the distracting background music track. I really want to hear your voice giving me valuable information. Without the muzak. Use it for the intro an outro, but do not let it compete with you talking.
Thank you. I always encourage my family to not overeat. I approximate the right portion when I cook. Also, I think some people just have too much, the choices are too much so I think the solution is to just have ir buy less, and you'll eat less.
Eat for your pancreas. Never eat less than 3 hours after a meal. Ideally 3 to 4 hours between meals. Eat the heatlhy stuff first and if you have room have a small amount of the "other things". This is why intermittent fasting works. Read about how your pancreas works and work it out for yourself.

Thank you so much for these points!!!
so very well said
That's it? That's how you stay thin? Genuine question.
I used to be a “naturally thin person”. Then I turned 40.
Same here. But I have reversed those fortunes. I started making headway at age 66. Now I am 68 and am back fitting into my pre-40-year-old sizes again. You don't have to wait as long as I did if you don't want to.
Wait till you hit 60 😂
I’m 46 and used the tips from here to lose over 20 pounds last year and keeping it off so far, even during the holiday season at the moment. 😊 The habits that I’ve built in feel natural at this point.
i turned 40 when I was 25 😂
Yo
Quit sugar. I broke my sugar addiction last year and started to notice weight loss after just 1 week. After 3 weeks, my mother asked me if I had lost some weight. I lost around 35 pounds last year (typical is to gain 5 pounds per year) and about 2 dress sizes, and that's the only thing I intentionally changed. (Unintentionally, when I stopped sugar, I stopped craving fast food as well, so the quality of food I ate went up.)
Also, all my bloodwork numbers improved. Triglycerides are back down to normal (they'd been high for a while), bad cholesterol is normal, and good cholesterol is normal. I was pre-diabetic (which is what prompted me to get off the syrup), and that number improved as well, although I'm still sitting right on the line for being pre-diabetic. I already do 16:8 intermittent fasting every day, but in the new year, I'm adding three 20-24 hour fasts (OMAD) per week to work on that number some more. (I don't know if I can go low carb; I'd rather skip meals than eat all of my meals without carbs.)
Other benefits to getting off sugar: joint pain, including plantar fasciitis in my feet, that came on randomly and lasted for months without relief, went away after about a month. Also after a month or two, evening swelling of my feet stopped. And I suddenly started going to bed on time, which allowed me to wake up on time, instead of being on the never-ending treadmill of going to bed late and getting up late or not getting enough sleep. But even before that kicked in, I stopped getting sleepy every afternoon. Now, I get sleepy when it's time to sleep. Plus I have more energy in general and found myself getting a bit more done.
I let myself go for about 2 weeks at Christmas; the parties and sweets put out everywhere in the office was just too much temptation. But once it was over, I was ready to get clean again. My sleep schedule is off again, my feet were starting to swell a bit, and my energy is down. So there's no question sugar is responsible for making me feel worse, so that makes it easier to stay off of it.
how did you quit sugar thats the main and difficult thing in my life .
@hazel8145 A sh*t ton of willpower. First, get all the sweets out of your house. Then just don't let yourself go buy any (avoid those aisles at the store). Lastly, stuff yourself so you don't want anything. After eating dinner, as soon as I wanted sugar, I made myself a bacon sandwich. Then I was so full, I lost most of my craving for something sweet.
After about 3 weeks, I was detoxed. I could look at sweets at work or in the grocery store and not want them 95% of the time.
Inspirational. Thank you 🙏🏽
That's wonderful! Congrats! I also quit sugary and premade store-bought cookies and bread. By cooking meals and baking my own sugar-free cookies, pancakes, bread, and other delicacies, I have also lost 25 pounds!
I have been vegan for years but it wasn't until I began a strict and fun health-tracking system that I was losing weight. Now that I am at a comfortable number I plan to keep up with my daily routines and not change them. It's all about consistency and patience.
@@hazel8145 Don't buy or eat *anything* with added sugar on the label for a starter. Make sure you don't eat any naturally included sugar without the fiber (don't drink juice, but eat the orange). You will find that things that didn't taste sweet before now do. Once you have that as a habit, try only eating the recommended daily allowance for fruits. Take it a step at a time and know that the withdrawal period is temporary.
After giving up smoking, I became sugar addicted. Your videos have helped me a lot, repeating them all each month. Thank you!
As a slim-all-my-life 60 yr old I agree with all of this but I highly recommend weight training, or at least body weight training, to keep your bones strong! Nicely done!
Damn girl you're sixty?
You look late thirty
The single best/helpful video I've seen on the internet. Actual actionable, specific action for each roadblock. Fantastic!
I agree! It really stood out 🌟
Boredom creates cravings. Having hobbies, books and stuff to fiddle with HELPS❤❤❤
YES!!!!! That's MY problem!!!!
I agree
Oh my goodness! YESSSSS!
I’m constantly hungry
@faithsfarmlife1424 maybe you need more protein. I went through that once, but I can't remember what I did to alleviate it
Food scarcity mindset is SO hard to overcome when the scarcity started as a pre-pubescent who was starved by her mother in the 1970s… There’s been studies by eating disorder researchers in neurobiology who replicated this in rats and gave them binge eating disorder by underfeeding them before puberty!
OMG yes! My mom use to say "We are all fat, we're all going on a diet", but she was actually the only one that needed to go on a diet lol I see my friends who were never deprived of food (any type of food) and they are all skinny. I remember one of my friends, she always had candies at her house, she was so skinny lol I can't blame my mom, I know she didn't realize what she was doing was bad. Today, both my brother and I are struggling with food and weight. I don't wanna do this with my daughter, so I am very careful and never deprive her or avoid types of food. But I do talk about it with her though.
Don’t lie
dont forget when you are scared of something which does not kill you only way to overcome it is to went through it thousands of times. So you should probably try to be hungry for as much time as you can . Not for losing weight but for overcoming. Then just eat normal with with less calories.
I'm so sorry that happened to you. Abuse or extreme buy-in to thin worship? Either way, that sucks. I'm heavier than I wish to be but I'm never going to give the scale too much power in my daily life. There is so much more to life.
@@andreareed4694 i mean if you are heavier then you want then just eat sme stuff little less you will lose weight in time.
Been thin all my life (I'm 63, 5'10" never weighed more than 158lbs) and this is all so true. I don't snack, I don't exercise except gardening and for fun (I HATE going to the gym!!!), I don't eat after 6PM, 95% of my food is consumed during meals, I'm okay with being hungry for a while, I don't default to food for self-comforting... What you are saying is spot on.
Another point about meals: I frequently only eat two meals. They may be very fattening meals, it doesn't matter.
Most of my Fluffy friends exercise intentionally, going to the gym etc, but they snack. They have strong emotional attachments to food. I have some too, but I don't use food to comfort myself.
Very good video.
One of my Fluffy friends has found that eliminating oxalate-containing foods has been helpful. But that is another whole topic.
❤ Thanks for sharing.
I love your term, "fluffy".
Sorry. It works for you but not for everyone. I am doing all that u are already doing but still remain fat. Only when I started strenght training, then only I started losing the kilos, but very slowly.
@@priyaskaccts7827 I am sorry, I know it's very triggering. I was agreeing overall that being thin, the habits mentioned in this video are ones I've had most of my life. I have friends who don't seem to lose weight no matter what, and I know it's really frustrating. Keto, carnivore, so on and so on... it's such a struggle, especially considering the rampant hypothyroid that affects so many women.
Yep you're one of those people I call 'naturally' thin. Like my friend who'll happily have one biscuit then say that's enough whereas I'll finish the whole packet. And unlike other friends who are thin but constantly struggle with it, go keto or whatever, are miserable half the time and can't stick to it!
Regarding food abundance mindset- I've noticed that I ate LESS the few times I stayed at ask you can eat hotels!! When I knew food was around all the time, I didn't feel the need to eat too stay full. It was interesting to notice, cause it doesn't really make sense that I would do that in my apartment when it's not like I would have to go hungry anyway. But it was clear that this was something influencing my eating habits.
One of the most intelligent findings on weight loss! I love this!!!
This was such a thorough and helpful guide, great work.
As a guy, I have maintained the same weight for about a decade now. Turns out I was borderline doing intermittent fasting during this time since I was a lazy student. However, what initially dropped my weight by 10kg over just a few months was cutting out almost all milk chocolate and candy as well as starting working out. If you can substitute sweets for berries and fruit as well as start out with some light muscle exercises, you'll be half way towards your goal in no time imo. With that said, I've never been overweight, but when I hit my 20s I started gaining weight fast which pushed me to make a few lifestyle changes.
HUNGER IS OUR FRIEND AND IF WE EAT BETTER FOOD, WE WILL NOT HAVE MUCH OF IT.
So true. Better food makes a huge difference. My husband and I can control the amount of fat, sodium, and sugars we eat because we most often dine at home. Less bloating, fewer cravings, more satisfaction, and we can manage our weight better even without making any other changes. Being retired helps, it wasn't always easy to do while working and caring for aging parents.
@miketracy9256 your comment and advice is golden. 🎉🎉🎉
Absolutely! Eating whole foods has been the breakthrough for me. Whole, unprocessed food keep you full until the next meal. This is the first time in my life that I don’t snack - simply because I’m full so I don’t even want a snack. I didn’t know making such a small change could change my entire life.
@ your comment rocks thank you 😘
emotional eating was a big one for me and I traced it back to my mom using food as reward or consolation when I was little. Bad day, scratched knee? Get something nice to eat, maybe a little extra dessert or an extra snack. Stress? Get something nice, maybe a little extra dessert. I deserved that, right? Celebration? Celebrate and reward with really nice food and sweets. I basically always had a reason to go for the calorie dense, unhealthy food no matter how my day went. Even when eating normal portion sizes (which made me struggle because unhealthy food keeps you hungry) I gained weight because the calorie density/nutrient ratio was completely off the rails.
Another tip: bring/ask for a takeaway container at restaurants! I’m the only friend who does this and I have no idea why you wouldn’t want to get your moneys worth and have a delicious lunch the next day instead of stuffing yourself silly
I don't walk 10,000 or even 6,000 steps per day. I'm too busy and it takes a long time to walk that many steps! I eat almost every meal in front of a screen because I live alone and also because I multitask because there aren't enough hours outside of work to watch the podcasts and other things I want to watch to learn new things. But I don't eat out of boredom or stress and i usually only eat when I'm hungry. I think a lot of people were conditioned to not listen to their body. A woman once asked me, "How do you know you've eaten enough?" I thought that was really sad. Another thing she mentioned that I do is usually I will automatically eat something light for dinner if I had a large lunch. I also tend to eat a large breakfast, medium lunch, and light dinner, gradually reducing the size of my meals as the day wears on and my metabolism slows down for the evening. I think I have always automatically done these things because I listen to my body instead of letting outside influences dictate what and when I eat. I've stayed thin my entire life with the exception of a period of time when I had some health problems and couldn't exercise at all and my metabolism slowed down due to the illness. Once I healed I was back to being thin again.

P😅 gza
Thank you for sharing that
Great information! Well done!
Stress/ depression eating can be a hell of a habit, look for good habit switches. I love music, the angrier the better. Whenever I have a shit day, instead of coming home and eating junk while watching Netflix like I use to, I go into my room turn out my lights and listen to some of my favorite angry metal/punk Cds. It's been a really good habit switch for me.
Try to find a good non food way to deal with those shit days.
I found that I also had the feeling that I wouldnt cope with being hungry however once I did feel hungry I began to enjoy the feeling as I thought I was losing weight because I was hungry. All a bit mad, but once I got used to being hungry it became easier.
Good to hear!
Excellent and practical. Thank you!!!
Well done!
Very Cool Coach Viva - some great advice thanks!
I think this is the best video I've seen for when you're desperate. I related in so many ways. Thank you!
So happy i found your channel! I was an eat whatever I want girl until age 46
Love how you've incorporated these visuals.Very educational. I think my issue is I'm afraid of hunger... that feeling is ALL I can feel when it happens (other times I don't feel hunger for days on end, but will snack out of boredom / cravings. ADHD & Autism is a wild ride! That said, I'll be monitoring my portion sizes as I think it's the easiest way I can lose weight.
You're totally right. Us neurodivergent people are less likely to eat something just out of hunger. As a person on the autism spectrum myself, there's no way I'd ever be satisfied with just eating a cucumber even I'm starving. And I"m starting to think it's possible that our divergent bodies might be giving us stronger cravings to ensure we at least eat something, even if that something ends up being a bag of potato chips, and as a result- we tend to eat more out of cravings then hunger.
Beautiful video . Thanks for your work
Very relatable.
This is excellent!
What about people with night shifts? Is there any advice for people like us can incorporate in our lives?
One of ur best videos love it
Hunger is the natural state of human beings and most animals. There's nothing wrong with being hungry most of the time. It's normal.
Very true. It’s also unpleasant if you’re not used to it (or even if you are) plus it’s a signal from our body so we don’t starve. We need to retrain our minds to be okay with it. I think her advice to make hunger a goal is great. I’m going to try it. (I’m in maintenance but have to be vigilant)
@Alarcahu we will need to be on our toes & pay attention to know when we're hungry
The thing is, what we think of as hunger is not actually hunger. It is the sensations that your body sends when your stomach shrinks down to normal size after having been expanded from a large meal. Real hunger doesn't come until days after not eating, and is expressed in physical weakness.
@user-ry1vi1jc7o no, hunger happens around 3-4 hours after eating unless you overate
@@BluegillGreg it's a God given signal to let us know that it's time to eat.
Thank you. These steps really help me getting my bad eating habits in controll. Thank you so much. You are a blessing🙏🙏
As a person who always has been skinny, I can say, that this is probably true, as I also have these habits in my daily life. I only eat when I'm hungry - usually that's around 11 am, then around 5 -7pm, so mostly only 2 meals a day. But the meal in the evening is usually large with at least 2 portions. Sometimes I have cravings and snack a whole pack of nuts in the evening - that happens maybe once a week, so most of my food is consumed during meals. I also don't do any explicit sport, but I often dance around my apartment or go to work by bike.
Im at 56 kg (124 lbs) since i am 17 (and I am 34 years old now).
When I eat a vegetarian high protein diet, I never feel peckish and thus, naturally lose weight.
What an amazingly informative video that really gets deeply into the whole thing, brilliant
This is so helpful - totally what I needed
For me, intermittent fasting works. I wake up, have some black coffee and start my day. I don't eat anything until dinner, when I freely eat enough to satiate me. I try to limit my eating-time to dinner, though I do graze a bit after dinner. As maintenance, I do this whenever the scale says that my weight has crossed into alarming territory. When I get back down to where I want to be, I resume eating in a more-or-less normal manner, though having acclimated my body to intermittent fasting, I eat with more discipline than I would have in the past.
Intermittent fasting has the advantage of not permitting any cheating. You are either eating or you are not. No fudging possible.
My trick is to eat twice a day only no snaking & no bad food. ( sugar no longer part of my life.
No snacking.
💯. Bad food and sugar are the bad guys. Whole foods will keep you full so there’s no need for a snack.
Cravings can also be a very good indication there is a nutritional deficit. Our bodies are smart we crave salty, bitter, sour, sweet, for good reason! That’s the biggest reason I stay under 130 at 5’4, I listen to what my body needs and I incorporate it into my meals efficiently so that I don’t snack later.
Trouble overweight folk often crave carbs or sweet stuff..not fruit and veg
@ and that’s fine;those are both.”Have to choose fresh and whole foods carbs and fats not refined. It’s not an easy journey. But it’s the only way.
I’ve been underweight all my life. Only gained healthy weight during my 40s. The things I notice friends do which I never do is:
1- Eat when they are stressed at their desk rather than going for a mind clearing quick walk even if just to the cooler
2- Always spend time sitting in cafes with food displayed in glass counters
3- Eat when bored rather than fill their boredom with a non food related activity (Gym, hike, swim, museum, read etc)
4- Do not have an eating schedule. I know that I will need food every 4 hours, and can easily fit in my 3 daily meals between my activities
5- Feel like snacking is a must. Thin people do not snack, because it messes up their 4 hr eating routine.
I don’t mean to be insensitive, but I notice thin people tend to always have varied non food reliant activities which engross them and fill those vacant spaces of their minds. Leaving no room for anything else.
I found this very helpful! Stress and boredom eating have been my biggest challenge! I’m going to be very mindful of this and have a PLAN in place!! Thank you for the Awareness!! 🥰
I like these ideas a lot! Thank you very much!!!!
Brilliant - love this video. And not a word about calorie counting or cutting down on certain typesof food
1. Why do people always think to be on a diet means carrots and salads?
Why not just eat what others are eating- just eat a smaller portion/serving….especially when you have a family.
It depends on what you eat, as well, regardless of the food or portion.
Thank you very much!❤️
I have never found a video which I can relate to so much. Thanks for all the steps ❤
This video is delightfully enlightening for me - it has made some things click that I never considered! Thank you.
Excellent. Also drink warm water/herbal tea instead of cold or room temp drinks which can adversely affect the Agni (fire) of the digestion
Thanks! Setting my timer to 20 mins! Great advice before New Years dinners!
I used to smoke in the past and I had friends who only smoked at parties and going out in the weekends. It’s the same with eating I realize, I kept smoking 24/7 while they didn’t.
This was the content which I needed...
There is no model fr keeping u thin.. Find out ones own way to.. bcs body is different metabolism is diff..
All animals eat only whn they are hungry.. Only animal that eats with mind is human.. Listen to ur body.. Accept its intelligence.. It hs itsown memory
@@saankamala547 still animals have different metabolisms and can be too fat or too thin when offered the same diet
Best video
Thanksss a lott
One awesome talk...fab 👌
Does it fill you up more if you eat slower?
There is a delay between being full and realizing you're full. Eating slower gives your brain time to realize you're full.
No one ever mentions genetics. Two people with the same habits and different genetics can have very different results.
I’m the opposite, but I feel equally cursed, to be fair. I can eat to my heart’s content, yet gaining weight remains completely out of reach😑.
First time in years i have liked and resonated with what you have said.
There is no habits or tricks. If you are naturally skinny it means you don't have to do anything or put any effort. If you have concentrate on it it's not "naturally".
Wow very good.
I have the opposite problem. I struggle to keep above underweight. If I'm sitting at a meal with people, I can't believe how much food they can eat. I try to keep up, but I fail.
What are your thoughts on intermittent fasting? I keep hearing that we are supposed to be fasting 16 to 24 hours a day, not eating every 3 to 4 hours.
My sister was ''naturally slim.'' Then she moved to the US. 😎
Some were just born like that, My little sister eats more than me yet I'm the one with body problems

@Overwatch2003 no, that was the American food. Larger portions and ingredients that are not allowed in Europe as they are considered harmful to humans. Have you known that American food is not allowed in Europe? They have to change recipes if they want to introduce their products into the European market.
@@Overwatch2003 Actually it is not the genes that make the difference it is the habits. May be eating, may be moving. I always think that I eat a lot and people who are having dinner with me may come to that conclusion, too, but when we got overnight-guests at home I see that over the days I move more and eat less than them. Never underestimate small differences, they accumulate in a year.
@@aga_3776 You never mentioned Europe until now
I’m naturally skinny and never struggled with weight☺️ I think you are right about many of the habits🥰
Then don't watch this video

Re: weight loss goals: I am working on losing a lot of weight I put on this summer due to 2 major stressors, one we moved, two we were helping get relative into assisted living who didn't really want to do that (but who does). I already had established motives for exercise that were not 'for weight loss' : we enjoy doing vacations where we do excursions such as hiking or walking around a city and that becomes more difficult both with weight and being more out of shape. So staying in shape is about being able to do what we enjoy. I have also found that it's easy to go grab a snack when I'm actually just thirsty, so I try to check for that. Less crumbs on keyboard if you get a mug of something rather than crackers.
I'm a thin person, always been at a good weight or even slightly underweight. None of the doctors said it was an eating disorder but I was a terrible eater as a child. I eat only when I'm hungry. I use the Buddhist 60-40 metaphor. Your stomach should be 40 percent full with solids. 30 percent more with water. And the last 30 percent empty. And the next thing is to eat slowly. I eat very slowly because I just find it difficult and boring. I take a stroll or brisk walk after every meal. And lastly, small portions. Put them in smaller plates. If you put more salt in your meal, you get full faster (don't go overboard). Chew gum, drink water, milk or tea before each meal.
I noticed a difference in my early 50s now--gained weight during COVID,and it isn't "dropping" in ways like I used to be able. I've reluctantly been trying IF out of desperation. For me the equation seems to have changed.
I reached my goal weight in May from fasting kept it off until I started HRT. Then I gained about 8 lbs back.
I’ve been slender all my life - with no eating restrictions ! Crazy!
BUT now as I’m getting older it seems every little nibble hangs on my waist.
It’s a challenge for me because I’d experienced no restrictions before ... I could snack and even drink coco (caffeine) before bed and sleep with NO PROBLEMS!
Lucky BUT now unlucky because it’s a challenging habit to break.
I eat 3 meals but each meal is spread over an hour … eating one serving, then another then the rest.
So I feel like I’m eating all day long - when before I ate when it was convenient or I was hungry.
I hate eating cold food so that’s why I might have 3 small servings over a one hour period of time.
I’m working on losing that infamous 10 pounds!!!😠
Interesting, I’ve been doing this my whole life without realizing it. It was only society who told me I “HAVE TO” eat 3 square meals or eat breakfast even though I wasn’t hungry at the moment.
Hmm, strikingly intelligent video. So wow, and, thanks!
I think our cravings may be somewhat different too? Like sure, most of my cravings are for unhealthy things, like chocolate or potato chips. But sometimes I eat a slightly better alternative, like chocolate oat cookies or salted peanuts and my craving is gone. But then again, I do get cravings for 'normal' food (not snacks) just as often. Like, I crave spaghetti, so that's what I cook for dinner tonight. Or like right this very minute: for the first time in my life, I am frying cauliflower on butter for breakfast!!! I was talking with my friend yesterday about various recipes and she reminded me I haven't eaten a cauliflower for waaay too long. I came come late last night - too late to cook anything, so I went and bought a cauliflower first thing in the morning and decided to have it for breakfast, just like that. It's funny how simple it is, and sooo tasty at the same time!
I used to cope with some negative emotions with food and celebrate with it. I didn't feel hunger, ever, though.
I had to go gluten and dairy free and that ook a toll on my food cravings, because I was never hungry and food wasn't appetizing I started loosing weight and I had a ton of hypoglycemias.
I have worked a lot to feel hunger again and now the sensation is horrible. Part of my work has also been to enjoy food again. I gained weight and now I'm regulating to lose some, while maintaining my hunger signals
The no screens rule is really hard, my ADHD brain demands entertainment 😅
fidgeting toys? Food can be your attention, idk goodluck!
At 60 years old I’m just learning how lucky I am. I’ve always been underweight or average. If I’m stressed food repulses me. It can take me days to start eating correctly if I get very upset. If I eat too much sugar or fats I feel terrible. I’m very reactive to artificial chemicals in food, so I rarely eat junk food. My cravings are healthy foods like salad. I take forever to eat, which is why eating is a hassle. I’m not the kind of person who can eat on the run. It bothers me to stop what I’m doing to eat. I like being active with everyday accomplishments. I like working out too, but I don’t do it as often as I should. My workout goals are to increase strength, build muscle, heart health and keep my lungs healthy, not to lose weight. It completely freaks me out to get too full. It gives me anxiety. Any other weirdos out there like me? 😂
I smiled throughout this video, I used to treat myself to a chicken laksa after my weekly Weight Watchers meeting, subject to my having lost weight
There is so much BS online on the subject. And here is your video, at the very first habit it hit home instantly. Like I eat before going to a buffet where I'm pretty sure to overeat to prevent it and it fails every single time...
Thanks
Am skinny and 40. I Just make sure i eat nothing until 1PM. and nothing after 7 PM. It takes discipline. Plus i put a tablespoon of vinegar in my one glass of water before eating. i dtink at least a total of 1.5L of water (i dont put vinegar in these glasses) all morning before my 1PM meal. making sure my urine is ALWAYS clear. I havent drank sugary drinks like coke in a year, Preferring tea with no sugar even when am at a restaurant. I dont even bother to go to the gym. I just walk to anywhere unless i think i will be late.
Chips = Carbohydrate=Sugar=Weight Gain.
In my family, we tend to be underweight and to lose weight as we get older., this is also happening to me, but I recognize that I eat very small portions and I never eat out
It is interesting because I always feel hungry after 5-6 hours, and during the between two meal, I do not want to eat anything till the next meal I feel full. Cravings is not a thing for me
Walking is the easiest exercise. I ususall do 5 to 6 thousnad steps an some mild dancing. I try to do a 14 hou intermittent fasting fom dinner(7pm) to Breakfast (9-10 am)
I love your videos but cant rememberveverting you've said. Pleaee please please write a book!
I know I'm eating out of cravings. I set guides for myself, and then I just dont listen to my rules. I just don't care...but then I do and I'm just getting further down the hole.
i really appreciate your content. your methods are the only ones that work for me. i think your “engineer” mind works well with my medical one.
Great advice! Especially remembering that the human body is designed to be able to fast for many hours between meals. We can ask leave the snacks at home :)
sugar, alcohol, bread , trans fats are the worst for me. The more junk I eat the more I want it. I'm almost 60 and it's a battle lol. I'm aware though and food prep and exercise most days.
i'm thin whole life too...body fat sub15%...lean...i only eat when i'm starting to feel hungry...i don plan to eat really n hunger is not planned or in thought...u got it right in the beginning but over-complicated it...just eat when hungry n don worry abt hunger...tats hw humans evolved from millenias ago...hunter gatherers!storing up food was an after-thought for emergencies!we now r planning every meals!
I’m 74 and I wish I had all the time back where I obsessed about my weight. Just enjoy life and be happy. Life is too short for self hate and extreme dieting
Me thinking- these are some great points, would really like to implement them- and wow those pastries Donuts chips and pizza look really good....
This pretty much explains the French paradox!
I used to not eat enough. Thats a big one. I just follow my fitness trackers. It works well.
Thank you. I really love all the information.
I would request, please give up the distracting background music track. I really want to hear your voice giving me valuable information. Without the muzak. Use it for the intro an outro, but do not let it compete with you talking.
Agreed. Cut the muzak
Thank you. I always encourage my family to not overeat. I approximate the right portion when I cook. Also, I think some people just have too much, the choices are too much so I think the solution is to just have ir buy less, and you'll eat less.
Eat for your pancreas. Never eat less than 3 hours after a meal. Ideally 3 to 4 hours between meals. Eat the heatlhy stuff first and if you have room have a small amount of the "other things". This is why intermittent fasting works. Read about how your pancreas works and work it out for yourself.
