I did 5:2 diet 8 yrs ago when I saw Dr Mosley talk about it on a show . It saved my life . I was 15 kgs overweight , high blood pressure and pre diabetic ! In six months of fasting 2 days a wk I lost 15 kgs and since have kept it off !! I don’t don’t do 2 days fasting anymore once the wt was off but I weigh myself weekly . If weight comes up 2 kgs + I fast for a day or two and it comes off . Fasting has shrunk my stomach so I get full quicker and sugar cravings are gone ! Iam now the person who doesn’t even know the cookies were there ! No desire to eat them . My diabetes is gone . Blood pressure came down and people say I don’t look my age . I’ll be 60 this yr but most people think Iam in my 40s . Fasting does amazing things to your body . It’s anti - aging .

Once I worked in a preschool where the children ate whatever for snack time.....cookies, cupcakes, candies, chips. The first day of class I had a flash in my mind of the mountain of junk food that I would consume over the school year if I decided to take the first bite. So, I never took the first bite Everyday I brought a piece of fruit to eat while the children and other teachers ate the junk food snack. Day after day...week after week. One day one of the children said....Mrs. W always eats a healthy snack! I felt like a true teacher that day. Someone...especially children....is always watching what you decide to do....good choice or bad choice.
Even in so called good meals served in day care come evening, children left for aftercare are served pure junk. Reason one kitchen locked, premade package junk given instead😡
I worked with high school students with cognitive disabilities. I remember one chubby, childlike boy who during "nutrition" break was debating over which of TWO full sized candy bars he should eat in the 10-minute break. He looked like a poster child for early diabetes. I was horrified when the adult instructional aide said, "Just have both!" She had a big heart, but was misguided by her own addictions. Later she "got religion" and lost weight. I never had the nerve to ask her if she remembered having said that to the boy and would she do it after she saw the advantages of limits . You may ask why I didn't intervene. My experience in that was that I had to pick and choose my battles.
I struggled with compulsive overeating while my children were growing up. I am thinner now at age 70. My son and my daughter are morbidly obese in adulthood. It might not be genetic but children learn how to be from watching their parents. My struggle became their struggle. I wish I had taught them how to play the piano instead.
It is partially genetics. But the person needs to be self aware of it. It’s not the type of thing where it’s your fault, it’s the whole generic pool. We live in a world where we blame ourselves for our gene. It is just luck. But basically if you have bad luck that means you have to make the choice of doing dieting or not. That’s where they come in. It’s not easy. He said it wasn’t and he has several speeches where he said it would be much harder for them; but it can be done. So at that point the choice is them
Honestly, don't beat yourself up. Studies over the past few years indicate that a lot of the gut biome is shared and similar across family members. This is believed to hugely influence how whole families can suffer from obesity or all remain thin. My siblings are all obese and I'm not. Why? I intervened markedly in what I ate in my 40s when I was getting heavier. I upped my dietary fibre greatly to feed the "good" bacteria (inulin supplementation). This has a big effect on feelings of satiety and also inflammation (via production of short chain fatty acids).
Diets don't work for the most part as you can go off and on a diet, so as soon as you go off, you will return to how you were before or maybe worse. One needs to change the lifestyle that caused the overweight in the first place. This means that it's a "diet" for always which most often will sound too extreme for most people. You don't have to change it completely overnight but start eliminating what caused the overweight in the first place. Another point is that losing weight is the wrong terminology, it's losing fat that it's about and not muscle mass for example. This means that you should seek help as to which exercising and when best to do it would greatly help in the fat loss.
People told me you can't eat carbs and lose weight, you can't eat bread and you can't eat at night. I did all 3 and have lost 43 pounds so far and went from a size 20 to a 6 and also packed on muscle in the process through weight lifting. I think Mr. Yeo is very intelligent and he's right - it's what works for you that you can stick to. I can eat forever like I'm eating now. I love my carbs, especially bread (100% whole wheat) and love brown rice and oats! I eat 50% carbs and I have 20% protein a day but any more than that I have kidney stones. I also get good fats, with about 30% fats in with olive oil, avocado, nuts and flax.
@@JimJamJuicy No, I do eat some animal food like chicken, tuna, eggs, cheese and turkey. However, 50% of my food is carbs like bread, tortillas, rice and oats. I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables too. I also have PB, beans, soymilk, etc. and guacamole, various nuts, olive oil and flax. I ate like I wanted to eat that felt healthy to me and log it in MyFitnessPal and it gives you the percentage of each macro there. That's when I noticed the trend that I eat 50% carbs, 30% fat and 20% protein. I do eat 20% not-so-clean foods sometimes like a fun-size Snickers, cookie, cereal or chips or even fast food but the other 80% mostly "clean" food like I mentioned above. I did/do a lot of exercise because I wanted to be fit above all! I've never had this much muscle before and being in my 40's, I'm glad I'm packing it on and plan on keeping up with my weight training.
What and when you eat is more about your health. The weight loss is more about sustainable caloric deficit. You can technically lose weight eating only potato chips, if you eat little of them enough to sustain a caloric deficit. Doesn't mean it's healthy.
@@ABIGPLAN I do eat for health and it's something I can maintain for life. I didn't want to just lose weight, I wanted to lose fat mostly and preserve as much muscle as possible and I, not only achieved that, but gained muscle too. I didn't tell all about how I got off a shoebox full of medicine and also have an athlete's heart now according to my doctor... But yes, the health impact was great!! I take no meds now and don't need to see my cardiologist anytime soon thank God!
Eat less and spend more energy. There has never been a secret. "A diet you can stick to" means changing your lifestyle. You have to trick your brain into liking low caloric and high protein foods. Diets you are doing as an obligation will never work
I'm one of the 5th type. I don't eat sweets and I never crave sugary stuff. I look at the biscuits, see people eat them and just think I'm not going to ruin my metabolism again. Now if they come with a cheese and cherry tomato platter it's a different story.
Do you walk into some shops now and not see 'food'? After a very long time of eating whole foods and no baked foods, processed, deep fried, junk I walk out of those places thinking there's nothing there to eat. I'd rather wait to get home and eat some real food and people around me have funny reactions to that. But I do think it's become unconscious over time. I just don't see 'food' anymore where there's processed, low quality, food like stuff.
Not only do we have feast feast we have feast with unhealthy food, we have constant stress caused media and social media that trigger cortisol, which makes us hungrier more quickly.
Love Dr Yeo! So entertaining while still making his important point. My son is a very interesting eater. He only eats three meals a day, never snacks and, when the plate is put in front of him, he doesn't pay attention to it. He will eat everything, but he will wait to start eating for at least 5 minutes. 😳 Even when he's really hungry!
So then ultimately since I can't lose fat cells I can only shrink them how the hell do I do that I watched two of his video and still haven't gotten a straight answer of exactly how to shrink the fat cells
I love this guy. Screw Brad Pitt, this guy is my hero. I guess Brad is okay by virtue of creating emotions in us through his great acting that give us a greater capacity for empathy. But still, we need to elevate people like Dr Giles Yeo and his colleagues and I would hope that Brad Pitt agrees. I have a feeling he would. Thanks for posting this great discussion!
when I was actively boxing, all I did to make weight was to eat fewer calories. I ate a well balanced diet just like off season but less of it. Of course my calorie burnoff was substantial but that's what worked for me then and now at 35 even though I am no longer active I still do the same thing. Its kind of boring but it works, for me anyway.
What people need to learn are food that WILL satisfy them either from carbs, fats and protein. Next thing is learning portion sizes and calories, this gives you an understanding of what you’re eating so you know not to eat too much. Then there’s sugar which you don’t want to eat too much of as it’s not beneficial really, it’s a treat. Lastly, are you living an active lifestyle? like walking/biking a lot combined with your favourite forms of exercise, three times a week? We shouldn’t avoid tasty things but is it really an everyday thing to eat high calorie treats?
Yeah, this doctor is d real deal. I can’t believe it, everything he said. I learnt that in college in Canada, like in Toronto. I got MYSELF OUT of 15 yr ong EATING disorder, yoyo dieting, deficit, lean food, half marathon, i did everything. Finally was the stuff i learnt in College,,,which is --Making sure NO agreesive workout at begining, Food, first, Nurish body first, Grocery shopping , food prepping, making sure eat Full Meal On time. NO empty stomach gong 2 hr gym then bing. Something like that. N zzz IN TIME,-make sure zzz 5-6hr after last meal. NO pass 6hr.. stuff like that . I HAVE been thin/lean n like for years. I did NOT need to restrict my diet. I just anything any time i dont get fat. Even if i eat tons peanut butter Nutella , n sometimes donuts(not d a few months when I was trying to get rid of ED) etc. my body tells me to stop as soon as i feel full. Lol. Same method, i got A FEW others out of ED in my close circle. Ppl always ask me, n I tell them. They got angry. Thinking i am like making it up. I am like “how did I MAKE it up. I paid a LOT of money for college, ATTENDED, my professor is RESEARCHER in biology n nutrition etc. I know more than any personal trainer, who stuck in the loop of cutting, n deficit, n bulk. Cuz anyone take 1 week online course , 1 simple (safety) exam can be “personal trainer” certified..lol. N finally. I am so shocked whatever they were teaching in university here are identical they teach in London Cambridge.
That was so funny. I was #2 for many years .. would even go into the bathroom and cry because I couldn't eat a stupid piece of cake for fear I'd gain weight. Now that I'm a 71 year old vegan who regularly intermittent fasts, I'm still too heavy for my body type! I'm glad I don't have any cookies lying around, but if I did I definitely be #1 type and eat the damn cookie without worrying about what others might say. Oh, the benefits of being old. 🍷
Linda Casey I am no. 2, too. I am in my middle age. For decades, my reason is my bad cavity - I am prone to easy and bad tooth decay; yes, it is GENETIC; the cost for dental care now in the U.S. is so expensive, so it is ~USD $10.00 worth of decadently delicious cookies that satisfy me for at most 15 minutes or >USD $800.00 of painful dental filling afterward and that I would have to live w/ for the rest of my life, if not requiring ~USD $2,500 root canal plus ~USD $1,200 porcelain crown...
You've just admitted your actual problem with your weight, being "Vegan"... You are eating too many CARBS thus your body doesn't use the Fat in your body or in food to burn as fuel, it's using only the carbs you eat, thus it never burns your excess fat. It's good you intermittent fast, but that's not going to do a whole lot for you unless you're controlling your Insulin. Eat Animal products, and go at least low-carb.
@@TheMightyOdin ... Not true. You're stating the OLD BAD "science". While it IS true that calories WILL make you obese or not depending on the amount of consumption, too many Carbs IS the primary calorie that makes a person fat, because unburned carbs turn into FAT. There aren't really "enough" carbs in other foods such as Vegitables, Meats, Nuts, etc. to be an "excess" of carbs that turns into fat, unless a person eats a crap ton, but if they do that they are technically "poisoning" their body causing various health issues, and gaining weight really isn't one of them, enough to matter anyway, because again, it's CARBS that create fat, NOT "calories". A person can eat the SAME amount of calories going low-carb or KETO, but by cutting the carbs the body doesn't have much carbs to burn as fuel, thus your body starts to burn your fat stores as fuel. Thus, both of your statements are absolutly false... Weight is NOT based on "calories" consumed, it's based on the "type" of calories. And carbs absolutely ARE an enemy for many people. That's NOT to say they are "bad", just they need to be eaten in moderation and according to activity level etc. However, too many carbs cause a multitude of health problems, which don't actually occur as much with other foods. It's been a LIE this whole time that eating "fat" is what makes a person fat, and I knew this 35 years ago. So, I know this myself. Every time I've gained weight, it's from eating too many carbs, for example when I was 16 I moved into a new home, ate a lot of cereal, and then a lot of toast after school plus regular meals, and in two months I gained 40 pounds. When I got married to a Chinese from Malaysia, I again ate a lot of good food, far more carbs than normal due to all the rice etc., and I gained a 100 pounds in a year. In contrast for example, I cut my carbs and Intermittent fasted and lost 30 pounds in 4 months, and then recently 10 pounds in a month and a half. Anyway, you need to study more... To "start" you on your journey, UA-cam SEARCH the video *Your Doctor Is Wrong About Weight Loss* by Dr. Sten Ekberg. He goes into the basic SCIENCE of what I'm saying.... There's more on the subject you need to learn, but this will get you started. I recommend also videos by "motivationaldoc", Dr. Eric Berg, etc. They and more are relaying the latest actual and effective science related to weight and nutrition. And to be clear, in the comments of these peoples videos, you'll also see 1,000's of people just like me using this science to considerable success. A person "starving" themselves to lose weight (aka cutting calories) is the worst way to lose weight and is the very cause of the "yo yo" effect, why most people can't lose weight. For example when I used to Wrestle, having to "cut weight" I lost a Tournament because I got the FLU due to starving myself (aka cutting calories). So, learn the latest science, not the bad science which is unhealthy for a persons body.
This is super interesting after watching him explain calories in today’s upload. This is also very interesting after finding out that anything soy clogs up my liver. It’s taken over a year to get it mostly unclogged-I lost 5 pounds the first week I eliminated all forms of soy (with no other dietary changes).
hello fredrik. though giles was ok... everything u asked him has been adressed ever so eloquently and accurately by dr. jason fung if you have a genuine intérêst in the obesity epidemic, genes, hunger, etc. then look him up . you'll be flabbergasted
hello friedrick , i apologise for previous comment, i now understand why you invitéd him to the show. Giles Is not only brilliant he Is super funny and adorable, unlike ...
What does he mean with diet one can stick to? Diet means what one eats. Everyone can stick to its diet. My diet is omnivore some others diet is vegan. What has a diet to do with loosing weight?
Basically, he advocates for not simply focusing on the calories of food (which are often not the true calories when cooked because the way we use energy to digest cooked foods differs from non-cooked foods). Focus instead on the **quality** of food you're putting into your body. So, healthy foods and more protein and fiber. Moderation diets are basically the most sustainable as you're not restricting yourself. =)
This video is mistitled. He said one statement that had to do with actually losing weight. Maybe for some people it’s news that the best diet is the one you can stick to. And I’m not saying he should’ve pointed out any particular diet that’s "right." It was disappointing to hear what he said about just automatically taking the cookie. Are there people who can get away with that for their whole life? Yes, but many people, including slim ones, eventually pay a very high price. And the rest of the insurance ratepayers or taxpayers also pay the price.
Yeah it’s all about hormones, most importantly insulin. If you are someone who has heard about the Keto diet or any type of fasting (done properly) and think it’s “just another fad” it ABSOLUTELY ISNT, it’s actual human biology. Weight watchers or whatever crap you are doing that is just about calories, THAT IS THE FAD
@@gigid9606 you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about 😂 healthy fats are actual fuel for the body, it can use them properly. Eskimos live on animal fat, blubber essentially, and have no heart/health issues. You don’t need to do it permanently, real metabolic flexibility is the goal. But when you have fat to lose and inevitable blood sugar issues to some degree, Keto and fasting are the only ways
Giles Yeo talks about Keto in his new interview here: ua-cam.com/video/Gy_vcL1cpP8/v-deo.html He also speaks about the dangers of consuming too much protein. It was a good interview! Loads of info.
Protein, fiber, whole foods. Stay away from ultra processed. Pay attention to the kind of eater you are and adapt. What he said is there is no one solution that will work for everyone and you need to try and address the genetic, mental and caloric components of how food and eating behaviors affects your weight and lifestyle
@Peter Rabbit, RDN - Pianist-Composer ♫ foot is over processed but our genes do play a role in what we look like and our size as we grow older;genetics and obesity run in families.
@Peter Rabbit, RDN - Pianist-Composer ♫ Stores need to stop selling over processed food and I eat roasted and baked chicken and veggies but not enough fruit .I like salads too.
You even watch the video? Fatphobic much? People can hold diffrent amounts of fat and me safe. It's going to depend on the person. Stop believing in our cultures ideal of beauty.
he said its unhealthy to lose weight by fasting. NO evidence to prove this. theguy is a quack who thinks he is a comedian. not smart not funny, no helpful advice.
It can causes stress, dehydration, disrupted sleep, headaches, increases anxiety and depression and can exacerbate an eating disorder that the person may already have. Is that enough reasons for you? That's called science. It can also confuse the body and make you keep on the weight you already have because it doesn't know when you're next eating.
@@paulawhittaker3538 I do intermittent fasting and I'm healthier than all my peers, younger, same age, and older. What he might be referring to is lengthy periods of fasting. Like 40 days. However, intermittent has proven to assist with weight loss goals in many people.
actually yes - if you listen to his other videos he talks about how some people genetically have issues with leptin - the hormone that tells us when we are full.
Right out of the gate, I'll say at least what I've heard in the first few minutes is just total baloney. I like cookies per say, but I hate the fact that they have something in there that is bad for me and is not a natural part of the human diet and that's refined flour, sugar, seed oils, etc. So I rarely, rarely eat cookies, dessert or junk food. Because it's not really human food and I don't really miss it much at all. Seeing things for what they are has helped me to shift my mind and thinking about food. It has nothing to do with genes. Nothing. Using genes is simply an lame excuse.
@@sassyt1545 How sad to be proud of your lack of knowledge and victimhood. "Evolved", no. Informed and actually care? Yes. This isn't rocket science and is obvious to anybody that bothers spending time thinking about it. If you don't and/or can't understand that most packaged foods FROM A FACTORY, ultra refined and loaded with sugar, corn syrup, seed oils, etc. are garbage, then I feel sorry for you. I gave you the key to overcoming eating compulsions, etc. and you were too busy making a snide comment on UA-cam to recognize it. Change your thinking, change your brain, change your life. Love the truth, hate lies wherever they show up and be amazed.
@@amalksuresh286 Yeah, they at least don't want to take responsibility for their actions. People are "genetically predisposed" to doing all kinds of ill-advised things, from overeating to various other kinds of addictive behaviors. It's part of being a fallen human being. Having an urge doesn't mean it should be entertained or acted upon though. Imagine if people just caved all the time to whatever their "genes" compelled them to do. Oh, wait, we don't have to. Not a gene problem though.
There are 4 types of people. The ones with hair, the ones with lots of hair, the ones with no hair or shaven. Oh I forgot, the fourth type is the ones going around there's 4 types of people.
so 15 minutes of nothing. how to lose weight? answer, there is no effortless way to lose weight. their is no ideal weight loss diet. the best diet for you is the one you can stick to. a waste of time.

Now if they come with a cheese and cherry tomato platter it's a different story.
I pass up the bloody biscuits meself right?😂

Do you walk into some shops now and not see 'food'? After a very long time of eating whole foods and no baked foods, processed, deep fried, junk I walk out of those places thinking there's nothing there to eat. I'd rather wait to get home and eat some real food and people around me have funny reactions to that. But I do think it's become unconscious over time. I just don't see 'food' anymore where there's processed, low quality, food like stuff.
Not only do we have feast feast we have feast with unhealthy food, we have constant stress caused media and social media that trigger cortisol, which makes us hungrier more quickly.
😢😢😢😢😢
Love Dr Yeo! So entertaining while still making his important point.
My son is a very interesting eater. He only eats three meals a day, never snacks and, when the plate is put in front of him, he doesn't pay attention to it. He will eat everything, but he will wait to start eating for at least 5 minutes. 😳 Even when he's really hungry!
So then ultimately since I can't lose fat cells I can only shrink them how the hell do I do that I watched two of his video and still haven't gotten a straight answer of exactly how to shrink the fat cells
it is so true, I still have no clue how to lose weight
My understanding is he is saying to find a diet you can stick to, doesn't matter which one really, and stay on it for life.
The fat cells stay in place but are emptied. The fat cell itself isn't melted or destoyed.
woo! thanks for the reupload.
You're more than welcome!
My adhd brain ate the cookie and didnt even know it and then think "maybe I should eat another one and Ill remember to enjoy it".
Omg this 😭
I love this guy. Screw Brad Pitt, this guy is my hero. I guess Brad is okay by virtue of creating emotions in us through his great acting that give us a greater capacity for empathy. But still, we need to elevate people like Dr Giles Yeo and his colleagues and I would hope that Brad Pitt agrees. I have a feeling he would. Thanks for posting this great discussion!
Brad Pitt is a drug addict

Health is beautiful.
when I was actively boxing, all I did to make weight was to eat fewer calories. I ate a well balanced diet just like off season but less of it. Of course my calorie burnoff was substantial but that's what worked for me then and now at 35 even though I am no longer active I still do the same thing. Its kind of boring but it works, for me anyway.
That's the only way to do it unless you plan on doing cardio 3 hours a day what do you mean.

What people need to learn are food that WILL satisfy them either from carbs, fats and protein. Next thing is learning portion sizes and calories, this gives you an understanding of what you’re eating so you know not to eat too much. Then there’s sugar which you don’t want to eat too much of as it’s not beneficial really, it’s a treat.
Lastly, are you living an active lifestyle? like walking/biking a lot combined with your favourite forms of exercise, three times a week?
We shouldn’t avoid tasty things but is it really an everyday thing to eat high calorie treats?
Yeah, this doctor is d real deal. I can’t believe it, everything he said. I learnt that in college in Canada, like in Toronto. I got MYSELF OUT of 15 yr ong EATING disorder, yoyo dieting, deficit, lean food, half marathon, i did everything. Finally was the stuff i learnt in College,,,which is --Making sure NO agreesive workout at begining, Food, first, Nurish body first, Grocery shopping , food prepping, making sure eat Full Meal On time. NO empty stomach gong 2 hr gym then bing. Something like that. N zzz IN TIME,-make sure zzz 5-6hr after last meal. NO pass 6hr.. stuff like that . I HAVE been thin/lean n like for years. I did NOT need to restrict my diet. I just anything any time i dont get fat. Even if i eat tons peanut butter Nutella , n sometimes donuts(not d a few months when I was trying to get rid of ED) etc. my body tells me to stop as soon as i feel full. Lol. Same method, i got A FEW others out of ED in my close circle.
Ppl always ask me, n I tell them. They got angry. Thinking i am like making it up. I am like “how did I MAKE it up. I paid a LOT of money for college, ATTENDED, my professor is RESEARCHER in biology n nutrition etc. I know more than any personal trainer, who stuck in the loop of cutting, n deficit, n bulk. Cuz anyone take 1 week online course , 1 simple (safety) exam can be “personal trainer” certified..lol.
N finally. I am so shocked whatever they were teaching in university here are identical they teach in London Cambridge.
Great video of interesting conversation based on real science and real-life problems.

That was so funny. I was #2 for many years .. would even go into the bathroom and cry because I couldn't eat a stupid piece of cake for fear I'd gain weight. Now that I'm a 71 year old vegan who regularly intermittent fasts, I'm still too heavy for my body type! I'm glad I don't have any cookies lying around, but if I did I definitely be #1 type and eat the damn cookie without worrying about what others might say. Oh, the benefits of being old. 🍷
Linda Casey I am no. 2, too. I am in my middle age. For decades, my reason is my bad cavity - I am prone to easy and bad tooth decay; yes, it is GENETIC; the cost for dental care now in the U.S. is so expensive, so it is ~USD $10.00 worth of decadently delicious cookies that satisfy me for at most 15 minutes or >USD $800.00 of painful dental filling afterward and that I would have to live w/ for the rest of my life, if not requiring ~USD $2,500 root canal plus ~USD $1,200 porcelain crown...
You've just admitted your actual problem with your weight, being "Vegan"...
You are eating too many CARBS thus your body doesn't use the Fat in your body or in food to burn as fuel, it's using only the carbs you eat, thus it never burns your excess fat. It's good you intermittent fast, but that's not going to do a whole lot for you unless you're controlling your Insulin. Eat Animal products, and go at least low-carb.
@@leeuniverse I disagree. Your weight is based on calories consumed. Carbs are not the enemy people make them out to be.
@@TheMightyOdin ... Not true. You're stating the OLD BAD "science". While it IS true that calories WILL make you obese or not depending on the amount of consumption, too many Carbs IS the primary calorie that makes a person fat, because unburned carbs turn into FAT. There aren't really "enough" carbs in other foods such as Vegitables, Meats, Nuts, etc. to be an "excess" of carbs that turns into fat, unless a person eats a crap ton, but if they do that they are technically "poisoning" their body causing various health issues, and gaining weight really isn't one of them, enough to matter anyway, because again, it's CARBS that create fat, NOT "calories". A person can eat the SAME amount of calories going low-carb or KETO, but by cutting the carbs the body doesn't have much carbs to burn as fuel, thus your body starts to burn your fat stores as fuel.
Thus, both of your statements are absolutly false... Weight is NOT based on "calories" consumed, it's based on the "type" of calories. And carbs absolutely ARE an enemy for many people. That's NOT to say they are "bad", just they need to be eaten in moderation and according to activity level etc. However, too many carbs cause a multitude of health problems, which don't actually occur as much with other foods. It's been a LIE this whole time that eating "fat" is what makes a person fat, and I knew this 35 years ago. So, I know this myself. Every time I've gained weight, it's from eating too many carbs, for example when I was 16 I moved into a new home, ate a lot of cereal, and then a lot of toast after school plus regular meals, and in two months I gained 40 pounds. When I got married to a Chinese from Malaysia, I again ate a lot of good food, far more carbs than normal due to all the rice etc., and I gained a 100 pounds in a year. In contrast for example, I cut my carbs and Intermittent fasted and lost 30 pounds in 4 months, and then recently 10 pounds in a month and a half.
Anyway, you need to study more... To "start" you on your journey, UA-cam SEARCH the video *Your Doctor Is Wrong About Weight Loss* by Dr. Sten Ekberg.
He goes into the basic SCIENCE of what I'm saying.... There's more on the subject you need to learn, but this will get you started.
I recommend also videos by "motivationaldoc", Dr. Eric Berg, etc. They and more are relaying the latest actual and effective science related to weight and nutrition.
And to be clear, in the comments of these peoples videos, you'll also see 1,000's of people just like me using this science to considerable success.
A person "starving" themselves to lose weight (aka cutting calories) is the worst way to lose weight and is the very cause of the "yo yo" effect, why most people can't lose weight. For example when I used to Wrestle, having to "cut weight" I lost a Tournament because I got the FLU due to starving myself (aka cutting calories). So, learn the latest science, not the bad science which is unhealthy for a persons body.

Really great show! Thanks 😊
This man is amazing 😊
He didn't mention the person that breaks the cookie to take half and leaves half on the tray for someone else. Just eat the whole cookie! 🤣
This is super interesting after watching him explain calories in today’s upload.
This is also very interesting after finding out that anything soy clogs up my liver. It’s taken over a year to get it mostly unclogged-I lost 5 pounds the first week I eliminated all forms of soy (with no other dietary changes).
Interesting....

Dr. Giles is brilliant.
Very interesting! Thanks for posting 👏👍😊
Thanks so much, Chris! We appreciate it.
You forgot the 5th person, the person who talks about the cookie for ages, about how they don't need it, and wait for permission to eat it
This was wonDerful . Thank you very much .
Why genetics and not psychological? Doesn’t your early relationship with food impact how to eat when you’re older?
I was wondering that too, I myself am an emotional eater. They don't address that at all that is a huge part of weight gain.
@@charlottearena Your emotions and your hormones are intertwined. Think about it.
@@TheMightyOdin I agree with you
Cause he is not a psychologist he speaking from his own expertise I guess
I had to get a cookie to watch this...
Doc's a star ✨
I think that the critical question here is why can't people stick to the diet? This is going to be due to genes, hormones, and gut flora.
Because u need a different lifestyle
Insuline resistance

I can’t take advice from someone who is overweight.
@@normhanson981what makes you think he’s overweight? He looks perfectly normal to me
At the end, exercise more and eat less.
What is the 5:2 diet ?
2 days out of the week you do not eat anything. Only drink water on those 2 days.
@@TailleurDesMurs Thank you for the clarification.
When does he answer the question of how to lose weight?
I thought it was just me wondering 😂
Never
What does he mean with diet one can stick to? Diet means what one eats. Everyone can stick to its diet. My diet is omnivore some others diet is vegan. What has a diet to do with loosing weight?
Type #5 is me - eats "nibbles" voraciously and gets reminded by my charming Japanese host Kuniko that "these are nibbles David."
Freelee is screaming 🙀
4:26 I noticed how a lady's FACE changes after a bald man explained, how everyone became larger :)))))
So what are the freaking diets that work!????
Any that work for you
@@dawndrew8313 the only one that works for both health and ideal body is carnivore... 👍🏻
Basically, he advocates for not simply focusing on the calories of food (which are often not the true calories when cooked because the way we use energy to digest cooked foods differs from non-cooked foods). Focus instead on the **quality** of food you're putting into your body. So, healthy foods and more protein and fiber. Moderation diets are basically the most sustainable as you're not restricting yourself. =)
the "no thanks"
one.
@@ldive i discovered that doesn't work for me... i discovered finally what works is carnivore...
I eat because I genuinely enjoy the flavor and experience of eating.... I get fat because I have a very slow metabolism. I was made for famine.
Me too!
@@nsiebenmor I'm female and over the age of 14. Of course I have.
Check portion sizes
@@gigid9606 I pray someday you have to survive on the amount I eat.
Metabolism is unfair. I have two dogs, male litter mates. They get the same food. One is chunky and one is totally lean.
The diet that works for me is omad with a lots of vegetables.
I am the third kind of person: I don't give a shit about cookies, and I find donuts, cupcakes, marshmallows, etc. vaguely disgusting.
Don’t eat so much! Simples.
Someone Please eat a cookie.
I thought the lady had an Irish accent and then I found out she's Swedish :)
Giles yeo: you cant lose weight effortlessly carnivore diet: hold my beer
Me watching this while having arms lipo done just last year😅😮💨
i want a couple of those cookies, man!! lol
This video is mistitled. He said one statement that had to do with actually losing weight. Maybe for some people it’s news that the best diet is the one you can stick to. And I’m not saying he should’ve pointed out any particular diet that’s "right." It was disappointing to hear what he said about just automatically taking the cookie. Are there people who can get away with that for their whole life? Yes, but many people, including slim ones, eventually pay a very high price. And the rest of the insurance ratepayers or taxpayers also pay the price.
I agree
I go carnivore ı get ripped and feel amazing.
Your body eventually will make more fat cells past a certain point but yes in the beginning the fat cells will just expand.
What about me? I have zero interest for cookie and I never even want or eat them?
You're the annoying third type of person. Lucky you!
We're not happy for you. Not even a little bit
@@lr6477 Speak for yourself! He may have other vices. Alcohol, chips, cakes, pastaries...
You better be quick - ill eat every 🍪 cookie.
Camilla is beautiful
When they asked her, I automatically thought, she damn well knows where she sits lol
What about the people who say I don't want that type of cookie my fav is dad's oatmeal so I would decline to have that cookie.
We're not eating food here in the US we are eating chemicals and plastic...smdh
Wait Wait Wait....
I thought Polynesian Ppl were brown not white... am I crazy?
I can’t concentrate around good looking food, I mean men 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah it’s all about hormones, most importantly insulin. If you are someone who has heard about the Keto diet or any type of fasting (done properly) and think it’s “just another fad” it ABSOLUTELY ISNT, it’s actual human biology. Weight watchers or whatever crap you are doing that is just about calories, THAT IS THE FAD
Keto isn't sustainable or healthy with all of that fat, but to each his own
@@gigid9606 you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about 😂 healthy fats are actual fuel for the body, it can use them properly. Eskimos live on animal fat, blubber essentially, and have no heart/health issues. You don’t need to do it permanently, real metabolic flexibility is the goal. But when you have fat to lose and inevitable blood sugar issues to some degree, Keto and fasting are the only ways
Giles Yeo talks about Keto in his new interview here: ua-cam.com/video/Gy_vcL1cpP8/v-deo.html
He also speaks about the dangers of consuming too much protein. It was a good interview! Loads of info.
I’m still confused on how to loss weight 😅😅😅
Protein, fiber, whole foods. Stay away from ultra processed. Pay attention to the kind of eater you are and adapt. What he said is there is no one solution that will work for everyone and you need to try and address the genetic, mental and caloric components of how food and eating behaviors affects your weight and lifestyle
Bottom line genes do play a role in people’s weight and size…that’s it so watch what you eat!
@Peter Rabbit, RDN - Pianist-Composer ♫ foot is over processed but our genes do play a role in what we look like and our size as we grow older;genetics and obesity run in families.
@Peter Rabbit, RDN - Pianist-Composer ♫ But you are right food is way over processed.
@Peter Rabbit, RDN - Pianist-Composer ♫ Stores need to stop selling over processed food and I eat roasted and baked chicken and veggies but not enough fruit .I like salads too.
You get nothing for injured pride
He is chubby, and giving diet weight loss advice?
You even watch the video? Fatphobic much? People can hold diffrent amounts of fat and me safe. It's going to depend on the person. Stop believing in our cultures ideal of beauty.
this wasn't funny, just confusing~
Added sugar, thats the reason. Giles Yeo is not allowed to say this.
He says it in other videos
Fiber.
He lost me when he said that water fasting is dangerous.
He talks out his ass 😂
Well it can be. If you have had to work with people who fast for weeks at a time you would know this.
@@frogmouth
“If” being the operative word.
Eating is dangerous IF you do it badly.
What they mean are lying who’s going on here polish should be involved
he said its unhealthy to lose weight by fasting. NO evidence to prove this. theguy is a quack who thinks he is a comedian. not smart not funny, no helpful advice.
It can causes stress, dehydration, disrupted sleep, headaches, increases anxiety and depression and can exacerbate an eating disorder that the person may already have. Is that enough reasons for you? That's called science. It can also confuse the body and make you keep on the weight you already have because it doesn't know when you're next eating.
He is a geneticist.
He teaches at Cambridge university now.
@@paulawhittaker3538 I do intermittent fasting and I'm healthier than all my peers, younger, same age, and older. What he might be referring to is lengthy periods of fasting. Like 40 days. However, intermittent has proven to assist with weight loss goals in many people.
You are a cactus in a rainforest.
Just eat god damn cookies daamn
He can locate evidence for the self control gene, jk
actually yes - if you listen to his other videos he talks about how some people genetically have issues with leptin - the hormone that tells us when we are full.
Right out of the gate, I'll say at least what I've heard in the first few minutes is just total baloney. I like cookies per say, but I hate the fact that they have something in there that is bad for me and is not a natural part of the human diet and that's refined flour, sugar, seed oils, etc. So I rarely, rarely eat cookies, dessert or junk food. Because it's not really human food and I don't really miss it much at all. Seeing things for what they are has helped me to shift my mind and thinking about food. It has nothing to do with genes. Nothing. Using genes is simply an lame excuse.
How enviable to be so informed and evolved as you claim to be. 😏
@@sassyt1545 How sad to be proud of your lack of knowledge and victimhood.
"Evolved", no. Informed and actually care? Yes. This isn't rocket science and is obvious to anybody that bothers spending time thinking about it. If you don't and/or can't understand that most packaged foods FROM A FACTORY, ultra refined and loaded with sugar, corn syrup, seed oils, etc. are garbage, then I feel sorry for you.
I gave you the key to overcoming eating compulsions, etc. and you were too busy making a snide comment on UA-cam to recognize it. Change your thinking, change your brain, change your life. Love the truth, hate lies wherever they show up and be amazed.
Yuh. Weak people these days find excuses in genetics and 'its who they are' to not put the effort and be lazy
@@amalksuresh286 Yeah, they at least don't want to take responsibility for their actions. People are "genetically predisposed" to doing all kinds of ill-advised things, from overeating to various other kinds of addictive behaviors. It's part of being a fallen human being. Having an urge doesn't mean it should be entertained or acted upon though.
Imagine if people just caved all the time to whatever their "genes" compelled them to do. Oh, wait, we don't have to.
Not a gene problem though.
Eat mangoes - barrow-loads of them - only nice ripe ones though...
Wow! And get diabetes - they are stuffed with sugar
The genes has nothing to do with obesity, is only hormones, leptin, ghrelin, insulin.
