Why wait a full week? So much happens until then, often some things are no longer news
Awesome. Looking forward to it!
WHAT A TEASE, *Starts a slow building chant* “Release it now”.
i allways wondered why people take supplements in the category for building muscle and fat loss, i just stick to test and hgh thats what ronnie did, i wish more people knew about test and hgh and didnt waste there money on supplements
Feminists were just bitter that someone told them to not guzzle mayo
A feminist will buy a cake, eat a cake and blame the cake for them putting on weight.
Body positivity is leftist equivalent of climate change denialism
@@bookillfulwell, technically, the cake DID give them more weight 😅 though I know that's not what you meant 😂
Fast forward a few years and we’ll be seeing attorney commercials for “have you suffered x health effects from Ozempic? You may be entitled to compensation”
Attorneys employed by Ozempic so they can recoup some of the cost in attorney fees.
💯
Honestly they're going to come out whether it's completely consequence free anyway, that's just how the system works.
Oh preach. It's gonna be all over the place. "You deserve compensation!"
@ 🤣🤣yup
Im 6 ft 3. Went from 325 to 225 in 8 months last year. Walking 3 miles a day at least and calorie deficit. Intermittent fasting. Never ran or stepped foot in a gym. The hardest part is losing 100 lbs and people barely recognizing because my height. Ive maintained my new weight for months because you naturally move around better when your not carrying around that shit. Your new level of activity makes all your activities twice as easy. Anyway, yes, losing weight is incredibly easy if you start today. Waiting for tomorrow will keep you depressed.
Gyms are a huge problem when it comes to weight loss. People just need to move around all day and eat a little less. No need to go to gym and do “formal exercise”.
💯
@@Mastcomputerman diet is critical. Moving around as well. Strap 2.5 pound leg weights on your ankles when you walk around
As someone who used to be extremely fit, but then gained weight over a period of years with mental hardship and other factors playing in, I had gym membership on and off for some time. I used it, infrequently, and while it gave me some momentary motivation, it never stuck. All I ended up doing was wasting my money.
I knew it had nothing to do with gym usage and training and exercise. It has everything to do with habit. So I started looking at my habits and the most obvious aspects:
1. Eat less fat and sugar
2. Eat less, period
3. Find a good reason to actually leave the house on a consistent basis
So number 1 and 2 are easy in concept, hard in execution. And it has been the one aspect that still can cause some issues from time to time, albeit much less now than prior.
Number 3 is the opposite -hard in concept, but once you get it the execution actually gets fairly easy.
My trick was to find a nice walking path where I enjoy the scenery (live in a big city so I picked one with lots of changing scenery). Then I picked a pass time element which became podcasts. I forced myself to walk for 1 hour every day, on the same route, while listening to podcasts that were (often) relevant to my line of work in entrepreneurship. So whenever I had some mental fatigue from my regular work at my desk, I would get up, put on a nice podcast, and just start walking. Bring along a low calorie sports drink, and just walk. Half listen to the podcast, while contemplating my own thoughts and directions in life. Aspiration and hurdles to overcome.
Before I knew it, I started craving these walks. I would look forward to them. Sometimes I would take detours because I was enjoying myself and wanted to stay out longer. Other times I would cram in two walks per day when I had the time to do so. And oftentimes I did have that time, or I would make the time, with late evening walks before going to bed. Just a 1 hour stroll through the night city feels so good.
Now I can't go without these walks. And the walks also motivate me to deal with aspect 1 and 2 about eating less and more healthy. Not to any crazy extend, but I feel how they reinforce each other in various ways.
Never set foot in a gym for the past year, yet it's been the year where I've lost the most weight and felt the best about myself and my outlook on life in general.
The key is to take small but consistent steps. Build the habits first, then the desire to do more and better will follow. If you try to do too much or set your goals high, then you risk collapsing entirely the first week where you can't live up to your self expectations.
As a kid that was always a bit on the chubby side, and then bounced back and forth between 160 and 233 lb the last 10 years, I absolutely believe that diet is 90% of the game. I abhor gym exercise. I just don't get mentally stimulated, feeling like a hamster on a wheel. I would literally rather go outside and chop wood, or do any type of practical work. Luckily, for my job, I walk long distances over shity Terrain with equipment on my back, through all seasons, in Northern Canada. I get enough movement and exercise to sustain my muscle at 46yrs old, and I've never felt better, eating primarily a fresh vegetable and meat diet. I also make sure to include plenty of healthy fats. Cutting sugar and bread was the biggest game changer for me. Every once in awhile I'll have a few croutons on a salad, but other than that, I've cut all of that nonsense out of my diet, and my brain fog is completely gone, as is the inflammation in my GI tract.
I look and feel better than most of the people I know in my age group. I actually got ID'd at the liquor store recently, which was surprising, because I live in a small town and they don't enforce that law unless they really are suspicious..😅
Lost a friend to this, the world has lit her in to thinking that it was okay to be 400lbs and she ended up having a heart attack at 30 and is now brain dead because no one in her office knew how to do CPR.
I won’t ever forgive the world for that.
Did no one know how to do CPR or did no one want to assume the legal liability of giving CPR to someone and it possibly not going perfectly? It used to be if you provided first aid you were legally protected if the results of that first aid weren't perfect, that hasn't been the case since the early 2000s.
Lies
RIP to your friend. Your friend was 30yrs old a full grown adult that knows right to wrong.Don't blame the body positivity movement. We all had bad influencers friends telling us to do bad things it's up to yourself to choose to do it
@@toms7114 yeah man I mean it could be that, I’m just under the assumption that people would risk that to save a life.
I don’t think cpr would have saved her, her heat like many drug addicts are always in hyper overdrive to keep going. It’s not the miles it’s the strain. Most likely her heart imploded (as in gave out under pressure not exploded. There is a difference.
WHAT’S EVERYBODY.
LIKE EVERYTHING BUT FOR PEOPLE
Everyone all around but not one. 😅😊
Can’t be nobody if you have no body.
@@ohnoitisnt I'm dead 😂😂
Everybody
At the beginning of Covid when they figured out that obesity was the #1 co-morbidity, I was 260 lbs (although 6,2) and overweight with high blood pressure. I started making changes to my diet and exercising, and yesterday I passed the 189 mark. No Ozempic, I did it the hard way, but the right way. Now I've got muscles, I can bench, I have abs, I've lost almost 8 inches off my waist, dropped from a 48 to 42 shirt, my blood pressure is normal now! I don't care if you're left or right, we should all be on board with MAHA!
I'm really happy for you man but it seems to me that MAHA has nothing to do with this. Being fat asf is not because of big pharma and mcdonalds at the end of the day it comes down to disrespecting your body by being undisciplined and prioritising short term happiness and dopamine bursts.
I think there are two cases
1) for those so obese the weight loss just needs to happen or they might die in short order... yeah get the surgeries and take Ozempic
2) for those who are overweight and can learn the benefits of weight loss (improved mood,self discipline, energy, lower depression levels etc etc) for those people
take the long route and harder route as the journey is very much worth it, the person you become along the way will be worth the additional effort and hardship.
Though I think right now and for the next 10-20 years were probably going to have a big fight between the "I took Ozempic" vs "I did it naturally" demographics
which is likely not going to end well for some people, But I think thats just unavoidable.
You're amazing!! It encourages me to read this. Soooo at the beginning of COVID I was 262 and I'm 5'4. 😵💫 I changed my diet and exercised and I lost 70 lbs in 9 months. I've put 20 lbs back on subsequently but I'm focused now on losing the remaining 70ish. Basically I need to feel starving and exhausted all the time to lose any weight but I've done it before and I can do it again! 😂
she was almost 500 lbs at 5.4. The lack of accountability and delusion has become epidemic
5:39 Everyone is threatened by shortcuts. Thomas Sowell spoke about teaching before and after affirmative action. Before, his students had no doubts about his insights and scholarship as a black professor when there were so few at elite institutions. After, he was approached by a student asking if he was sure of the conclusions in the book he was teaching from, despite having written it.
Precisely. DEI hurts the people that it's intended to help.
Just an anecdote on the Lyft incident with the zeppeliner of a woman:
Car suspension is built for a fairly distributed load, and is accounting for a certain range of reasonable weight in each single seat/boot/etc. If you put 2-3x excess weight in only one spot, that means one suspension component will have to deal with an excessive force. It will probably be fine under normal driving, but lets say you hit a pothole or you have to do an emergency maneuver etc. With that crazy weight misdistribution, the suspension is not set up to cope with it, and it could pose a real hazard in such a case- either damaging the suspension or potentially endangering someone (either her, the driver, or an outsider).
In any way, it is a perfectly acceptable response to decline her in response to not being comfortable with how the vehicle may/may not cope with her weight. Any engineer or mechanic would agree in a heartbeat. If she can't even easily get into the vehicle, the vehicle is not for her. And she knows.
You get criticism for having a body of any composition. I spent over a decade trying to build what I thought was a perfect body and people will still criticise. Strive for health but do it with grace. Don't be hateful, don't be judgemental, work on you and don't concern yourself with what other people are doing
Ha. I’m the one not happy with my body. 5x a week weight training mostly to failure. For a 53 year old, very fit and all I see are the flaws. Trying to look like spider man here!!!😂
@@kanshou Try cutting your volume back to a 3x/week PPL. Guarantee your gains are better. No offense intended as I'm getting on a bit myself these days but you're way too old for 5x/week to be optimal if your primary goal is improving your physique.
There’s genetics.
There’s environment.
There’s diet.
Two of those three can be mitigated to improve health.
And with proper family health histories the genetic category can also be addressed to some degree.
"shortcuts" threaten everybody
Shortcuts destroy true value
I find it ironic how for a good long while now that shame and judgement, which are necessary to keep society and culture healthy, were basically shamed out of being acceptable responses to so many things in society.
Shame was shamed. Shameful.
Not to mention the absolute damage it is doing inside of the body. Although I do think it is healthier for a 400+ lbs person to be on Ozemp than to continue being obese
Chris, I needed to hear this today. I have about 70 lbs to lose right now and I've struggled with weight from childhood. I'm soooo frustrated b/c at 43 my body is so stubborn. I've gotten into a good workout routine over January, I'm just trying to keep it up. Tears and all.
I struggled with my weight while adjudicating federal disability benefits. I knew "body positivity " was BS when I started seeing hepatic steatosis (fatty liver disease) where excessive fat accumulates in the liver, and which may progress to cirrhosis. It is a common liver problem, affecting up to 25% of the population worldwide! The obvious correlation between weight and health is undeniable.
I take Ozempic. It's so stupid that people are ashamed of taking it or shaming others. This drug is honestly a miracle.
I've lost weight in the past and it was always a real struggle trying not to eat, counting calories, doing special diets.
On Ozempic I don't even think about eating, and just set reminders on my phone to make sure I get 100g of protein a day + some vegetables & fiber.
My blood pressure and cholesteral is best it's ever been in my entire life. I feel motivated to go to the gym every day. I've stopped drinking, gambling, and smoking. All like magic after taking a drug with 0 willpower involved.
If you want to look down on me and struggle through your diet and exercise regime using "willpower", be my guest. I've got other things to focus on like my work and family, I can't be fucked to get into a battle with myself to lose weight when modern medicine has solved the problem.
nice! good to see Tommy Buns here
I’m down 300 lbs on Ozempy! Feeling great just need to get down 100 more to my goal. Let’s go baby, still haven’t ran a single mile and I’m conquering my goals!
As someone who grew up very skinny and constantly heard bigger people telling me "eat a cheeseburger" or "you're a twig," I'm all for body positivity if the movement was really inclusive.
Ozempic doesn't make you lose weight. It helps you eat less. You have to consistently eat fewer calories and exercise to see results, even on ozempic.
And avoid the osteoporosis...
I bet you on ozempic
Yeah, if you don’t do impact and weight bearing exercises, you will lose bone and muscles along with the fat. That’s just how it works.
DRs telling you if you’re healthy or not is their job. Thats why they are trying to pressure DRs to say it’s healthy to be fat.
2:07 the best part about the whole Ozempic scam is the reports coming out that people who have taken it for weight management will have intestinal gastroparesis for the rest of their lives, basically ruining their digestive systems for life. They are in for a WORLD of pain and agony they have never experienced before.
Yesss! I hate how the only time people criticized me was when I was fit and had lost weight, they told me I was too skinny and must be self obsessed. It’s insanity. I just turn it all off. 💯 a lack of accountability and I was acting as a mirror to their own insecurities.
At one point, I was ideal weight for my height, and a lot of people had the nerve to say I was too skinny and questioned if I had taken drugs smh.. I was a gym rat working out and playing basketball every day! I was in Texas at that time, so I would tell them I was Cali skinny so they would shut up
We need to promote healthy bodies.
Fun fact - the deadliest animal to humans on the entire African continent is the hippopotamus.
Ooooo k
I read the puff adder kills more people in Africa than the Hippo, and is the second deadliest after the mosquito.
@@Doberman_6773 Are you kidding me? It is the mosquito.
The deadliest human to a hippopotamus, is a 300 lbs Karen at 8 am on a tuesday
Incorrect: it’s actually other humans.
I worked in security for a very long time. One company I worked for the bosses had to constantly go to the hospital for their health because they were massive islanders. There wasn't much they could do because it is their genetics. My brother is 150kg and 7 foot tall...do you understand how much of just the plastic moulding he damages in my car as well as the damage to the chairs, the entire car creaks with him in it and leans. 390 pounds and you hit a pot hole and your car is done. No ride is worth risking the entire car unless they're paying the price of a car and she definately doesn't have that money if she's catching lyft and eating that much.
Even for islanders, the CICO-principle applies.
@@suprlite It's INSANE that people cannot grasp this. Genetics are irrelevant; their contribution is setting your maintenance calories. They don't alter the underlying reality that you gain weight when you eat more calories than your body requires.
Hey, tom's on another podcast. Shoutout to my fellow poors in the comment section.
They basically said be fat, embrace your bodies and then here you go we made loads ofd medications that can help you lose that weight ! Manipulation at the highest order.
Create the problem, sell expensive solution, like Covid
I think we need a video on that new stache! Rockin the Zappa, brother! Not many can pull that one off, looks awesome.
Shaming happens no matter the body type. I’m lean and cut. Often told to eat some cheese burgers!!😂😂😂 I always laugh and say I eat anything I want
Are we just gonna sit here and not mention the stash? Though you were trying to find a life partner, Chris?
I’m dying at this 😂👨🏼🦱
Losing weight is not difficult. High protein diet with no processed frankenfoods or refined sugars.
It's simple yet no easy.
It's so simple. Just walk and eat clean. And yeah I get the calorie deficit bit. It becomes an obsession and if you go like 3 or so months then it just plateaus because metabolism adapts to new normal... So my trick was loose 5kgs then 3-4 days of going slightly over or equal to the calories required. Then back to deficit. Works amazing. Did 40 kilos with it.
I agree with the sentiment, but I do believe you phrased that poorly. You can't say losing weight is both not difficult and then that it's not easy, those are contradictory. It should be "Losing weight is not complicated".
Incorrect. Calorie deficit is the only thing that matters. High protein helps, but its calories in vs calories out
@ You clearly understood what I meant but thank you Mr. Corrector!
@ Good Grief! Eat meat and eggs and grass fed butter and you will burn fat instead of sugar which is a premium fuel for your body and is a cal. deficit!
Touch my camera through the fence.
Good morning, Julia.
John Segura is right. Bottom line, we need to live life 3-6-5.
4:20 "I don't know if they went over to the truck stop and figured it out" FUCKING LOL 😂
Appreciate the honesty!
Everybody is Lance Armstrong now.
Tom Segura! Let's go!
I enjoy seeing Tom outside of the events where its his job to be the 'funny guy'. He is just as interesting in this environment. Where's this full talk? Is this just a preview? (I looked here and Spotify, couldnt find it so if Im missing it, I'll take the heat 😅)
Live on Monday
When is the full episode coming out?
Reminder that Tom Segura is related to Dr. Andrew Huberman.
They're from a long line of Argentinian bullfighters.
4:25 😂
Your clothes get “loose” when you “lose” weight. In case anyone needs help with the spelling.
Why do these *Big, healthy, beautiful people* allow this skyrocket of Ozempic usage?
It’s sad that such happy, healthy, beautiful people feel forced to take a medication that does nothing but make you look “healthy”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
5:00 she couldn’t fit in the back let alone use a seatbelt
It always has been. LOL All the influencers say they love their bodies no matter what are secretly trying their hardest to loose weight even tho they eat a pizza right after their gym sessions.
Congratulations on your 70th birthday, Tom! You and Bryan Callen are making 70 look easy!
Chris saying ‘Lambast’ as in BAST and not Baste cheered me right up…spread the word in the states kidz !
I’ve got no problem with ozenpic, and I’ve been very fit for my entire life.
It cost a shit ton and probably has negative long term effects and is confirmed to stop working for the majority after they stop taking it.
The only person I care if they were in it would be my gf/wife and that’s more about the type of person who would result to this drug and what that says about them. Idc what it says about you if I’m not trying to marry you, but I do care if we’re dating
Can't wait for the episode
When does the full Episode come out 😔 😔
Monday
Tom Segura is pretty awful to his fans. His humor depends on tearing others down while having this arrogant awful attitude. Completely mask on here.
Love you Chris, loose the mustache. Just no for you......not a good look. Sorry 😞
A prescription drug which causes irreparable harm to people's health? Weird.
I think Adele became beautiful, and then her beauty made her past beautiful: It redeemed it. The only way to include that negativity body state is by making an ultimately healthy body journey.
The only way negativity can be redeemed, can be not pointlessly useless, is by a glowing positivity: One of effort, self examination. It is the only way across all dimensions - Size, finance, athleticism, ethnicity, reputation, et cetera - to redeem the stupidity for all of suffering: Positivity! Health! Transformation! Growth!
In essence, you gain TWO advantages by redeeming yourself: (1) You shed the thing that isn't you, that your corrupted soul chose to claim (2) You develop yourself! Your own personality, outside of your inauthenticities. Go positivity!
Lucky me, I caught the algorithm. Thanks, UA-cam.
omggg yesssss!!! I can’t wait for this!!
Even I have to look after my weight (yes, the thumbnail is me). Very few of us are exempt from avoiding unnecessary weight gain.
The hire driver probably had a legitimate reason for keeping her out of his vehicle if she was unable to properly fasten a seatbelt around her girth. Next thing we'll see is drivers being required to carry seatbelt extensions in the vehicle for these occasions (like the airlines do).
That's where it spits.
😂
who would have though
Thank you for your incredibly precious work. Best regards from Switzerland!
Where is the whole podcast?
Danke!
Who else is here from the bearcave and just as shocked to see a wild Tom in the wild
Many of females coming out sayings it has caused and advances osteoporosis - just like birth control shots depo Prevera also has ???
Where are the bodies Garth!?!?!?
Bikes!!!!
The blue lighitng goes so hard
I have a Ph.D. in psychology from a top tier university, and I can honestly say that Williamson is more agile with psych concepts than 90% of academics Ive met.
The only problem I have with short-cuts is the side effects and consequences. The phrase short cut implies you cheated in some way, you did something wrong that will have a negative consequence. If taking medicine to make you thin works then I'm not going to look down on them for doing it. If some guys wants to get jacked and takes steroids in a healthy way (if that's possible) then who cares.
We apply unnecessary extra virtue based on how much work we assume goes in to results to the toxic outcome of looking down on people for not taking the hard way. Imagine we applied this logic to everyday life. Do we mock the people who drive to work when they could've walked for 3 hours there and back? Do we criticize the handyman using an electric drill instead of a manual screwdriver?
When results are what matters we need to stop caring about how people got there. It's fine to learn about a difficult struggle someone had to go through, extra effort that was *required* for them to achieve it and praise them for overcoming it, but that doesn't mean we stigmatise people that got there the easy way.
People who are trying
Vs
People who are whining
They have the big weight scales in most ERs now. They look like the vet ones.
in the uk millions of £s are having to be spent on over-sized and stronger beds and wheelchairs ,, one more thing most of these overweight people will loose legs through phlebitis due to bad leg circulation
shes confirmed to be 489lb not 392.
From what I understand of certain Asian countries, perfect strangers have no problem about criticizing one's weight if one is in the slightest perceived as being overweight, especially if one is a woman.
Heyyy. My favourite Japanese comedian!
The issue with people taking ozempic in place of excercising to lose weight is that one of the main side effects of all GLP1 agonists (semaglutide = ozempic and wegovy) is that they cause muscle to breakdown, so one of the main counseling points Drs/pharmacists always tell these patients is you need to do muscle training daily to avoid said muscle wasting away side effects. However, most people are taking ozempic to avoid that entirely…
The poors can’t afford Ozempic like Tom can
Stop being poor 😉
dont all your money on burgers and doughnuts
OMFG TIM ON MODERN WISDOM FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!
I'm 6'4" 160 lbs; yes a twig. The members of the "body positivity movement", in the pre-Ozempic days, would be the first people to point out how easy it was for me to do something because I'm skinny. They'd say, "You're skinny so [fill in the blank] must be easy." But if I ever said, "You're fat so let me do the heavy lifting here." it'd be absolutely detestable and I'd be burned at the stake.
Tom Cigarettes said it best when called them, "Fucking hypocrites!" Hahahaha 😆
As a hospital worker obesity takes on a whole new level of negative stigma seeing people all day that have reached the tipping point where they are finally reaching the consequences for their actions. As someone that was morbidly obese and finally got in great shape, the hard way, I was initially judgemental of ozempic but now, after years of working in the hospital, I just want a fix for this epidemic. Sadly though they are finding more and more negative side effects of Ozempic so we will see.
"Body positivity" should be about self-esteem, not "quell all judgement from people around me."
Ozempic and obesity are both bad lol
Can't find the full episode. I'm really upset. I looked on spotify. Not there... unless I'm just r-worded. Someone help
why is the table so high
I was 190 and went down to 126 in 6 months. But I wasn’t trying to lose any weight my gf left me and that was just a side effect to heart break lol
4:00 DJ Dad Mouth wont take no shit! you cant just call yourself a rapper))
A person is valuable regardless of their weight, but that doesn't mean I have to value their fat body. I can understand her struggles with losing weight and support her in it, but I don't have to (and shouldn't) tell her, oh, it's great that you're so fat.
SHE IS HEAVIER THAN BIG SHOW.
We dont know the long term side effects. Its scary
Long term side effects of obesity can be scary too
Except we do. The drugs been around for almost 20 years.
One year ago I went to my doctor and asked her to prescribe me ozempic as I had tried everything else (at least that's what I thought back then). She said she'd do I had to go to a dietician first for one "last try". I had been to dieticians before, but this time I was basically like "well, got nothing to lose (pun not intended), might as well play along". Well, I've lost over 35kgs since then, without having to take ozempic in the end. 😂
The worse part is people that need it for diabetes can’t get it.
The Stash is looking very Sheriff like. 👏
Tom says all this, he looks pretty ozempic slim to me
Ozempic defeats the point of being ‘healthy’ 😂 - Literally a prime example of pretending to be someone your not
Are we getting Hormozi? It's February 😭
I think the lady suing Uber is 492 lbs, not 382.
Sure you could have two 250lb adults in the back seat no problem, but I think that lady literally wouldn't be able to physically fit in the back seat of a compact car
That's sick!
Tom Segura! Chris Williamson!
Epic causing blindness… does not seeing the weight count? Wow what a way to lose weight.
