I've been bed bound for 594 days so far, recovering from a horrendous motorcycle accident. It's crazy what a sedentary lifestyle does to negatively impact so many things in your body. Edit: day 782 now, nearing the finish line though! Pending amputation is my last surgery and I should finally be past this malarkey. Thanks for the well wishes🤘🤘
You don't know how much this comment helped me. My grandma has been bed bound for almost 10 months and to know that someone has been in the same situation for 594+ days gives me hope. I pray you can recover soon and best of luck to you.
Hope that you eventually get the chronic pain sorted! I have chronic pain in my legs which caused a drug addiction, took me ages to get clean again, and that wasn't until I changed doctors and finally got some medication that actually works.....7 years too late!
Hi! It’s been 2 years but ur comment has still touched my soul, I am dealing with chronic pain as well and am only 24, I struggle everyday, but everyday I need to get up a move and if I don’t it just gets worse. But day by day overall, I feel a bit better. So hopefully sooner than later the pain will subside, let’s pray 🙏
This kinda happens to me when I was 12. I had a total knee reconstruction surgery and two feet surgery at the same time, which I wouldn’t move much for a couple of months. Granted, not to this extent in this video, but I’m still trying to lose the weight from that period 10 years ago; and my body makes it even harder for me because I have hypothyroidism, which slows the way your body produces and regulates hormones, which therefore, makes it harder to lose weight. This video definitely helped me out and motivated me to be more active! ☺️💪🏻
Dont give up in your fight to lose weight. It may feel endless, but you gotta keep at it. I suffer from adhd and my impulsive eating keeps me from eating healthily. Its a long road for me and seems hopeless, but i dont want to give up. 😀
I’m seeing a lot of people let themselves go since covid started. It’s sad because they’re only hurting themselves in the long run. Our bodies atrophy without exercise. My neighbor can barely walk up and down the stairs now and she’s still fairly young. We’ve all been given the gift of life. Let’s take care of it!
I had a situation like this after getting covid. After working full time for the last 18 years, I was in bed almost entirely for two weeks; vertigo and weakness caused by covid kept me there. After recovering and returning to work, just getting out of bed was close to impossible for the first 4 or 5 days. I couldn't imagine what being inactive for a month would do, let alone a year.
Dear Narrator, It’s been a few years now. I just wanted to say thank you for being the “person” I want to listen to at the end of my day. Learning new things, hearing the goofy jokes or jabs, or dusting off some old topics. Listening to these videos and “growing” with them has been a good time. Thank you for continuing to help broaden our minds with any kind of knowledge and bringing us together. I hope you stay with us for years to come, may you have a prosperous life and live life to its fullest. With unending gratitude, from an unknown friend ~
What about the woman in Philadelphia Pennsylvania who never moved from her recliner in the living room for years. After she died in her chair they discovered that she had become one with her chair. Her back skin and fat fused to the pleather of the chair. Like a Roman shield, they had a carrier out on her barcalounger. This is a true story. Happened in the early 90s I believe
I worked ambulance, we had to take a person to the hospital that was immense. We had to call fire backup because we physically couldn't pick him up, nor would he fit through the doors. They had to cut through his bedroom wall, we had to rent a haul to transport him since he wouldn't fit either the gurney or ambulance. He was transferred on a large sheet requiring 10 fire fighters to move him. Once at the hospital, there was no bed in the hospital large enough to hold him and he had to be place on the floor in the ER until they could order a special "big boy bed" from bed supplier. We left him there on the floor....
I was severely depressed and stayed in bed for almost 6 months at one point. I lost weight instead of gaining it, as I didn't eat much. But after that I sprained my leg, broke two toes and sprained my rib when I started moving A LOT in the following six months, so it can happen quite fast... I was just 26. Get help if you're struggling, it's worth it even if it's hard.
I've been bedbound going on a decade I have a tumour in my spine, but I'm proof you don't instantly balloon if you eat a pretty standard diet but if you do it is very difficult to lose weight. I'm able to go for a short walk about once a month, am able to infrequently swim and do hydrotherapy, though I want to do more of it, I'm left in a lot of pain afterwards. I read books though mostly I use audiobooks, listen to music and play games. By far the hardest thing is socializing, making plans pretty much disappears when your bodies condition varies so much that I never know how I'll be on a given day. And being truthful to others about my condition is hard, if they ask me how I am I either have to lie and say I'm struggling but alright, because every time I've ever been honest about how bad I'm doing it freaks the other party out and they just don't respond at all.
@@rickysmyth sadly my pain wouldn't allow it. I have a constant headache and pain even on my best days, but sitting or standing for any more than 30 minutes turns it into a migraine. So not even a wheelchair is suitable for me. What's odd about my disability is I can still walk on a good day, it's standing and sitting that are my issues. Thus leaving me bedbound most days.
@@walterroux291 sending love ❤️ I've been bedridden for about 10 years now aswell since I was 14. My muscles atrophied a lot at in the beginning and eventually I was able to walk again but it causes a lot of pain and because of my heart I can't sit up for more than 30 minutes at a time without passing out. Luckily it's improving by doing physical therapy laying down but it's so physically and mentally draining. I'm very lucky that my best childhood friend is my neighbor and has always been there for me even though she's gone to college. She makes me feel more my age
Thank you for the motivation to lose weight again. I started at 302 & got down to 253 before I plateaued for months. I got depressed more than normal & went back to binge eating as well as not eating for days on end. I’m now back up to over 280. This video is enough motivation for me to keep going.
Being active, even if it is just walking everyday is very important to your health. From your cardiovascular, muscular-skeletal, digestive, even neurological health. Our bodies are designed to move. My spouse had a back injury and hardly moved and got blood clots, one becoming a pulmonary embolism, which almost took him out.
Almost 6 years ago my older brother passed away, I was relatively skinny at the time or at least I wasn't fat, I was 14 at the time and 5'6 or 5'7 weighing about 180-210 lbs mind you I had been working out at a gym at least 4-5 times a week and had been for 2 years at the time, but after my brother passed I stopped working out and started eating more food until just 3 months later I was weighing 264 lbs and eventually I got to 350 lbs, I'm now trying to lose all that weight but so far I'm only down to 319 lbs, also I'm 5'9 or 5'10 now
I work with a 14 year old girl who was rett syndrome, which basically means it is VERY difficult for her to control her body. With puberty in the last 2 years she put on a bit of weight and it definitely makes everything more difficult for her. But the whole reason she gained so much weight is the fact she has so much difficulty moving, walking or doing anything combined with her "teenage" hunger (maybe because she grew up, her body thought it needed more calories?) Anyway it really motivates me to continue to push her and make her move and stay as active as she can. Even if she cannot run, jump or swim, and has limited mobility
Stress is a requirement in doing anything that's worth doing. Stress can be good. The human anatomy proves it. So get up, get active and pursue what you want to do in life. Figuring out what you want to do is stressful. Good. It means you're doing something meaningful. Go get it.
I recall hearing about a woman like this that began her weight-loss journey by simply clapping her hands ten minutes a day for a couple weeks. She ended up walking and lost hundreds of pounds.
Physical therapists who specialize in bariatric cases do just that - find movements the patients can do, even if it's just waving their arms, and work up from there.
5:40. Let me just confirm from someone here who has lost 167 pounds to date. Yes, when you are sedentary, do not excercise, and let yourself go? You become stupider, or at least your brain has a " fog" as I like to put it. That is hard to overcome and makes it difficult to really expand as a human being. Ever since my peak weight of 420 pounds, now all the way down to 253? I have experienced, in fact well before this? A clearer mind, my thoughts come faster and are clearer than before. I couldn't explain why, I thought it was the strain I was putting on my circulatory system pumping blood to the brain. As it turns out, it was this all along. Thanks infographics!
Curtis, that is beyond impressive. That's a massive accomplishment. And you raised such a valid point regarding the quagmire that envelops your mind. "Fog" definitely hit it on the head.
This is very informative. Makes me really want to go workout. I used to work out a lot more before covid. Now I definitely got a reason. At least my job keeps me fit.the facility I work at I have to do a lot of walking. I've never been happier to work there than I am now looking at this.
This is great motivation for those who want to change their lifestyle. Especially now, where more people remain in there houses for long stretches of time.
Took me 3 years, but i am 18lbs short of losing 200lbs! It was truly a struggle and took a lot of mental fortitude, but here I am, Feeling great, living great, Lovin life in a skinny body!
During nursing school we went to a long term care place that specializes in bariatrics aka morbidly obese people. I had to care for people SO BIG, 450 plus pounds, we had to use a machine to lift them out of bed into a specialized reclined wheel chair. If they COULD get out of bed… they were glorified blobs. The rolls were infected and stunk like rotting flesh. There is zero quality of life. Stay healthy and try hard.
@@TheGamingSpoon69yup with chairs that have head and back restraints and also at least 5 minutes standing up and stretching your arms and legs. Making sure you eat healthy and wholefoods.
These kind of fears are why I'm trying to watch what I eat, exercise and movement are difficult with chronic pain and my disability, and try moving when I can. Sure I may not have a brilliant diet but I know if I weigh too much it'll cause more pain so its a balancing act but seems to be working so far.
@@colacoke2102im a little late, but it’s basically when an disease linked to severe trauma to the head, so it mostly effects athletes because they get concussions alot
I had surgery in Sept and couldn't walk for 10 weeks. After those 10 weeks it was slow recovery, I just started to be able to go down stairs. I lost all my strength in my quads and calfs put on a ton of wait (at least 30lbs on top on covid 20) I've has to watch most of these things.
I back this idea. I have had a torn hip labrum since 20 years old and need surgery, and I suspect it has specifically to do with overuse and never resting.
It takes awhile for you to notice that you're losing weight (other people will notice before you), but when you see it start happening it'll shed fast. Especially if you become addicted to working out.
I am 30 and have been almost housebound for 18 months since I started suffering with vertigo and chronic dizziness 24|7. I try to go out for small 5 minute walks but it is difficult. It worries me that I have sat in bed all this time and I wonder all the time what I am doing to my body. I used to work 12 hour shifts at work on my feet all day, I had never ending energy and stamnia. I was a super active person. It’s heartbreaking to look back now. Luckily I have never been overweight and even after sitting in bed for a year and a half eating a lot of KFC, I am still somehow slim! I know my insides must be unhealthy though. I need to start trying to move more before bad things
I'm no doctor, but as far as I know, without drugs you can't grow too much muscle. You can only lift so much so many times. You can try to lift too much and end up hurting yourself.
“The heart doesn’t know the difference between muscle and fat” even tho Rich Piana used steroids he mentioned that in a video and he also stated that body building is not a healthy lifestyle
There is a hormone called myostatin which limits muscle growth and overall muscle mass, so our muscles can't grow without a limit like fat; if your muscles were to grow indefinitely tho you would probably break your bones by just moving and your body would require a enormous ammount of nutrition
Exercise, sleep right, drink lots of water, drink supplements, eat right and healthy and you will be strong! Never abuse your body avoid tobacco and alcohol!

I'm so glad that they now motivate people to get up as soon as it is safe, even after surgery. I had a tumour removed from my breast this year, and I was getting up to use the bathroom even on day 1, and starting from day 2, we all had our meals in the cafeteria style room. I think this was good because you got to see the other women. And the one male doctor who went there to get his coffee, looking as if he thought he was on forbidden territory. Even when he was not.
I had a back injury back in 2013 and don’t get much exercise because I can’t bend and then walking even for the most part hurts. Definitely going to look into getting more exercise now.
my whole life i've been stationary and not liked doing anything physically. christmas 2020 i decided i am going to start losing weight. at the time i was 490 pounds. through diet and excersize routines and a tight sleep schedule i have lost 130 pounds so far and plan to lose much more.
Yessir. Movement is the key to happiness. I have a SEVERE traumatic brain injury and instead of sulking on it; I decided that the ONLY way to improve will be to work, like never before.
Was watching 1,000 lb Sisters and it breaks my heart that she isn't doing better for herself and I was curious what would happen to her body if she didn't move. Good timing on this video.
What is sad is that big businesses are encouraging longer work hours without giving their workers decently lengthy breaks so people spend 10 hours at their desks for a two-week pay check while risking illness
What about if it's really difficult to move around a lot? I have chronic Osteo-arthritis, bursitis in my left hip and shoulder, and also have fibromyalgia.........all of which means I'm in constant pain, and can't walk around a lot
Exactly. Between my mom's chronic illness and her mental health problems, plus the condition of her bones, makes moving excruciating. She eats a fairly healthy diet, doesn't over eat either.
Hmm you could almost say the universe is a hostile environment hardly suitable for life, ultimately fatal for all and it's a miracle we're alive to begin with.
I had surgery 8 years ago which caused me to stay on my couch for a month. Luckily I have a job that forces me to be pretty active. I’ve learned sometimes you just need to squeeze in exercise. When the alarm clock rings turn on some dance music and dance for 10 minutes. Park on the farthest end of the parking lot. Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina. One day I ordered those deep fried chocolate bars in a restaurant in Sarajevo. They were rather delicious and served with ice-cream. I enjoyed them just once. It's important to control your urges, but also not to suppress them ❤
Unfortunately there's people who are extremely over weight and literally can't get up to simply walk to use their own bathroom at home. I hope they can overcome their situation and get healthy in every aspect, mentally emotionally and even trying to change ones mentality to even start the process of putting in the work to get the results needed and desired. Blessed be 💫
This is a life lesson, hope yall don’t end up like anybody here in this video, you don’t wanna be this fat, stay healthy, exercise and work out and don’t eat too much unhealthy food, you are good as who you are, if you are a bit obese, what are you waiting for? Get on your feet and have a nice walk somewhere like the park. So stay healthy people
Proud to workout 2 hours a day 5 days a week and have a very active job. Other than 7 hrs of sleep and a half hour nap after weights. I'm always doing something. Want to see my kids have kids and their kids have kids
I think there should be a few things mentioned on your food packages in bold letters. 1) The number of calories & the composition of the said calories in the food item or package. 2) There should be prohibitive taxes on processed and fast foods which can help make them unaffordable for regular consumption. 3) Diet awareness should be something that should start right from our school days. It is then that our minds are most impressionable. 4) Offices should have compulsory exercise times for employees. ( This is practiced in China & Japan if i am not mistaken) 5) Subsidize healthy foods & health centres, gyms, swimming pools etc. 6) Encourage people to take a bicycle or walk to work. ( again Japan & Denmark too can be our inspiration ) Let us remember that it doesn't make sense to sacrifice our health for money & then spend all that money on Doctors, Dietitians & assorted others trying to regain our health. 🙏🏼
Quick question, what happens of you are overweight, but you stand for 8 to 10 hours a day, but dont excercise, what happens to your liver. But you try to eat salad, protiens, fruits and veggies, but still just over weight? What happens then??
Things like this makes me grateful I have a dog, live in NYC, and make it a priority to workout even if it’s for 30 minutes. People have told me because I’m skinny that exercising isn’t necessary but I know that’s not true at all.

Ive seen osteoporosis actually affect really thin women; maybe they’ve been naturally skinny all of their lives, but have never exercise
EXACTLY
And That is exactly why I personally Exercise and train everyday and eat healthy foods like vegetables and fruits
Don’t forget fish and white meat
bla bla bla......,5 press ups 5 sit ups .,............tomatoes and cucumber means nothing
Bruh I eat trash and junk food all day lay in bed don't do much sport and am still thin... how ??
@@fabianweber6937 you have a naturally high metabolism, good chance it could get worse overtime so I'd still be careful friend
@@fabianweber6937 that’s because of your genetics 🧬 most likely your mom and dad and grandparents where always in great shape
Took me 3 years, but i am 18lbs short of losing 200lbs! It was truly a struggle and took a lot of mental fortitude, but here I am, Feeling great, living great, Lovin life in a skinny body!
Great job on all the hard work! 🎉
that’s amazing, im so proud of you!
@@BloodSweatandFears Thank you so much!
During nursing school we went to a long term care place that specializes in bariatrics aka morbidly obese people. I had to care for people SO BIG, 450 plus pounds, we had to use a machine to lift them out of bed into a specialized reclined wheel chair. If they COULD get out of bed… they were glorified blobs. The rolls were infected and stunk like rotting flesh. There is zero quality of life. Stay healthy and try hard.
Wow, tours of that bariatric LTC facility might help motivate people who are at risk of extreme obesity.
It's sad, that many jobs are just sitting at a desk and looking at a computer. I hope I don't end up in one of those jobs
You can still live a healthy life despite having a desk job
@@TheGamingSpoon69yup with chairs that have head and back restraints and also at least 5 minutes standing up and stretching your arms and legs. Making sure you eat healthy and wholefoods.
These kind of fears are why I'm trying to watch what I eat, exercise and movement are difficult with chronic pain and my disability, and try moving when I can. Sure I may not have a brilliant diet but I know if I weigh too much it'll cause more pain so its a balancing act but seems to be working so far.
Just focus on eating the more nutrient dense foods like meats, fish, eggs, non-starchy veggies stuff like that and even fast if you feel like it.
Hey Infographics, I would like to suggest a video on CTE. Its pretty unknown and hopefully it would raise awareness for CTE.
I agree
What is CTE?
@@colacoke2102im a little late, but it’s basically when an disease linked to severe trauma to the head, so it mostly effects athletes because they get concussions alot
I had surgery in Sept and couldn't walk for 10 weeks. After those 10 weeks it was slow recovery, I just started to be able to go down stairs. I lost all my strength in my quads and calfs put on a ton of wait (at least 30lbs on top on covid 20) I've has to watch most of these things.
Could you make a video about what happens if you never stop moving?
I back this idea. I have had a torn hip labrum since 20 years old and need surgery, and I suspect it has specifically to do with overuse and never resting.
It takes awhile for you to notice that you're losing weight (other people will notice before you), but when you see it start happening it'll shed fast. Especially if you become addicted to working out.
I am 30 and have been almost housebound for 18 months since I started suffering with vertigo and chronic dizziness 24|7. I try to go out for small 5 minute walks but it is difficult. It worries me that I have sat in bed all this time and I wonder all the time what I am doing to my body. I used to work 12 hour shifts at work on my feet all day, I had never ending energy and stamnia. I was a super active person. It’s heartbreaking to look back now. Luckily I have never been overweight and even after sitting in bed for a year and a half eating a lot of KFC, I am still somehow slim! I know my insides must be unhealthy though. I need to start trying to move more before bad things
Now I’m curious. what happens to the human when muscles keep growing? I know having too much body fat is bad, but what about muscle?
You're the first person to think of that
I'm no doctor, but as far as I know, without drugs you can't grow too much muscle. You can only lift so much so many times. You can try to lift too much and end up hurting yourself.
“The heart doesn’t know the difference between muscle and fat” even tho Rich Piana used steroids he mentioned that in a video and he also stated that body building is not a healthy lifestyle
So really only if you’re crazy huge it’ll be dangerous. Normal weight training is great for you
There is a hormone called myostatin which limits muscle growth and overall muscle mass, so our muscles can't grow without a limit like fat; if your muscles were to grow indefinitely tho you would probably break your bones by just moving and your body would require a enormous ammount of nutrition
Exercise, sleep right, drink lots of water, drink supplements, eat right and healthy and you will be strong! Never abuse your body avoid tobacco and alcohol!
Stay Blessed Y’all ! God loves you 🥰

I was once in ICU and didn't move for 7 days, when I stood up my legs felt like rubber bands. I couldn't imagine what any longer would do.
I'm so glad that they now motivate people to get up as soon as it is safe, even after surgery. I had a tumour removed from my breast this year, and I was getting up to use the bathroom even on day 1, and starting from day 2, we all had our meals in the cafeteria style room. I think this was good because you got to see the other women. And the one male doctor who went there to get his coffee, looking as if he thought he was on forbidden territory. Even when he was not.
Awesome guys! Keep it coming.
I had a back injury back in 2013 and don’t get much exercise because I can’t bend and then walking even for the most part hurts. Definitely going to look into getting more exercise now.
Bruh I’ve been relaxing in bed for most of the weekend and UA-cam decided to roast me by recommending this to be.
Thx 4 sharing
Nature walks are more important than I thought.
my whole life i've been stationary and not liked doing anything physically. christmas 2020 i decided i am going to start losing weight. at the time i was 490 pounds. through diet and excersize routines and a tight sleep schedule i have lost 130 pounds so far and plan to lose much more.
Thanks for the content guys!!!
yesh
You’re welcome!!

Yessir.
Movement is the key to happiness.
I have a SEVERE traumatic brain injury and instead of sulking on it; I decided that the ONLY way to improve will be to work, like never before.
Was watching 1,000 lb Sisters and it breaks my heart that she isn't doing better for herself and I was curious what would happen to her body if she didn't move. Good timing on this video.
Seing this makes me feel grateful im keep burning fat since 2020.

What is sad is that big businesses are encouraging longer work hours without giving their workers decently lengthy breaks so people spend 10 hours at their desks for a two-week pay check while risking illness
What about if it's really difficult to move around a lot? I have chronic Osteo-arthritis, bursitis in my left hip and shoulder, and also have fibromyalgia.........all of which means I'm in constant pain, and can't walk around a lot
They don't care about you, they're just trying to fear-monger into fatphobia
@@babyJes444 stating medical facts is fatphobic? You're really indoctrinated
I needed to see this. Thank you
As a nursing student I feel really good remembering all the health stuff from semesters ago like lipolipase is an enzyme that helps break down fat
Haven’t moved in years.
Can confirm.
Thank you genetics.. Haven't exercised in a while.. still fit than average people.. And yes I don't eat junk/fast food(only rarely)
Thank you for sharing the information; I am a very active person to be honest, which means that I don't really laze all day.
What about those with chronic illnesses where exercise makes them worse…? I.E Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, Fibromyalgia, POTS….
Exactly. Between my mom's chronic illness and her mental health problems, plus the condition of her bones, makes moving excruciating. She eats a fairly healthy diet, doesn't over eat either.

A study shows that 100% of people who have died have remained still at some point in their lives
What point are you trying the prove?
@destroider331 a study shows that air is bad because everybody who breathes air will die or has died at some point
Hmm you could almost say the universe is a hostile environment hardly suitable for life, ultimately fatal for all and it's a miracle we're alive to begin with.
I had surgery 8 years ago which caused me to stay on my couch for a month. Luckily I have a job that forces me to be pretty active.
I’ve learned sometimes you just need to squeeze in exercise. When the alarm clock rings turn on some dance music and dance for 10 minutes. Park on the farthest end of the parking lot. Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
As a Scotsman, I can say deep fried chocolate bars are actually pretty good
I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina. One day I ordered those deep fried chocolate bars in a restaurant in Sarajevo. They were rather delicious and served with ice-cream. I enjoyed them just once. It's important to control your urges, but also not to suppress them ❤

Unfortunately there's people who are extremely over weight and literally can't get up to simply walk to use their own bathroom at home. I hope they can overcome their situation and get healthy in every aspect, mentally emotionally and even trying to change ones mentality to even start the process of putting in the work to get the results needed and desired. Blessed be 💫
Nikocado Avocado? His life story?
This is a life lesson, hope yall don’t end up like anybody here in this video, you don’t wanna be this fat, stay healthy, exercise and work out and don’t eat too much unhealthy food, you are good as who you are, if you are a bit obese, what are you waiting for? Get on your feet and have a nice walk somewhere like the park. So stay healthy people
Proud to workout 2 hours a day 5 days a week and have a very active job. Other than 7 hrs of sleep and a half hour nap after weights. I'm always doing something. Want to see my kids have kids and their kids have kids
I think there should be a few things mentioned on your food packages in bold letters.
1) The number of calories & the composition of the said calories in the food item or package.
2) There should be prohibitive taxes on processed and fast foods which can help make them unaffordable for regular consumption.
3) Diet awareness should be something that should start right from our school days. It is then that our minds are most impressionable.
4) Offices should have compulsory exercise times for employees. ( This is practiced in China & Japan if i am not mistaken)
5) Subsidize healthy foods & health centres, gyms, swimming pools etc.
6) Encourage people to take a bicycle or walk to work. ( again Japan & Denmark too can be our inspiration )
Let us remember that it doesn't make sense to sacrifice our health for money & then spend all that money on Doctors, Dietitians & assorted others trying to regain our health. 🙏🏼
where i live (chile) the government places stickers on foods that contain excess things like fats and sugar
I thought it was Niko avocado
Quick question, what happens of you are overweight, but you stand for 8 to 10 hours a day, but dont excercise, what happens to your liver. But you try to eat salad, protiens, fruits and veggies, but still just over weight? What happens then??
What happens to your body if you are to fit
You lose all your friends and family. Too much time in Gym.
