People aren't crediting josh enough. Many others on this show are complete a-holes about quitting their habits, however josh is extremely understanding and mature throughout the whole process. He shows great discipline and realizes it's only going to benefit him in the future. Intelligent man.
This is a perfect example of how just because someone’s not overweight.. doesn’t mean their eating habits aren’t taking a serious toll on their health and is a heart attack waiting to happen.
I hope he’s still doing well! I can’t imagine having to completely reset your diet after 19 years! This guy is so much stronger than he thinks he is and has such a loving and supportive family. Keep it up, Josh ❤
It’s because he chose not to eat it and before he ate pizza he wasn’t picky and since he thought pizza wasn’t his sickness he didn’t change his diet. So when he discovered pizza was bad for him he ate vegetables and didn’t gag
When I was a sophomore in high school, I got very sick with a stomach bacteria that wouldn't go away. From 2016 - 2018, I would wake up every morning sick to my stomach. The only relief I got was when I puked my guts out, or whenever I was hospitalized. Watching Josh's story gave me a look back on what my life was. He only ate pizza, I couldn't eat anything without getting nauseous.
@BrainletReviews Before I got sick, I would eat anything, especially spicy food. I actually contracted the H.Pylori, which triggered my 2 year nightmare. My doctors were puzzled as my test results were normal. But, I was treated 4 times with strong antibiotics. I think that I tested positive the 1st time I contracted, but the rest were false positive. The bacteria will always be present. An endoscopy is the fastest way to confirm whether I have the bacteria or not.
I thought the same thing 🤔 It has to be the combination of flavors and texturws in particular because there is so many ways around this. Cauliflower crust (which is freaking deliesous) light sauce, and light cheese, lasagna if it was just the the cheese and sauce which could be made with lean meat and whole grain noodles, like I don't understand... There are healthier ways to eat the food he is addicted to
@@briandevine8292 pizza is very healthy depending on what you make it out of, like the dough could be made out of greek yogurt, which in itself is super healthy
@@lyokofanatic9999nigga stop trying the pizza propaganda. No one addicted to pizza is eating a yogurt pizza with skim mozzarella and low sodium vegan marinara. Pizza is not healthy bro 💀💀
The fact that they never thought of approaching a psychologist in the first place instead of a doctor is surprising. It's clearly an issue of anxious coping mechanism that led to the addiction, not something physiological.
Honestly, this guys has pretty amazing genetics. He doesn’t seem to be overweight and has no break outs on his skin. The constipation struggles must be real tho
In a recent study, pizza was ranked as the food most associated with symptoms of addiction, according to the Yale Food Addiction Scale, a tool that assesses the diagnostic criteria for substance-use disorders in reference to highly processed foods.👍
I can attest. When I went carb-free, we made a rule in my house where you had to change the channel when pizza commercials came on. This one time, my mom didn't change it fast enough and I got SOOO MAD! lol
Do you mean frozen pizza? Imo pizza is one of the healthest foods. I mean margarita pizza is just freshly baked "bread" without addatives + crushed tomatoes( passata) + mozarella.
@@hfalex7703Don't forget the basil.Not every pizza is made without preservatives, especially the crust. All of the WHITE flour is bad-- too much white flour leads to diabetes. The cheese has a lot of trans fat --also leading to diabetes. So, while a margherita pizza may be a healthier PIZZA OPTION, it is NOT a healthy daily food.
This is the best episode of this type of show I’ve seen. This kid really was in a bad place but was able to understand why and face it with these two’s help. Very emotional.
He said he went to multiple doctors over multiple years and they couldn’t find any issues. I want to know what crockpot doctors he went to that didn’t possibly ask “ hey what’s your diet like? What food are you eating? Oh, lots of pizza? Maybe cut that back…” Was it really such a big mystery?
If i had to guess, it sounds like he kept it as vague as "I eat a lot of pizza" and maybe the doctors thought he just meant like a couple nights a week and leftovers after....not literally EVERY SINGLE MEAL WITH NO VEGETABLES IN SIGHT.
One thing I appreciate about Josh was how open-minded and willing he was to make a complete SHIFT...at least on camera. He really understood and took it to heart which is huge when confronting an addiction cold turkey.
I went to high school with Josh. We went to Los Altos high school together, class of 2005. Yes he really did eat a lot of pizza. He was star athlete though.
Josh *Eating 10 pizzas everyday* : has clear skin, skinny body and great hair Me *smells fries* : face falls, crazy hair and my body turns itself into a balloon
Casein is especially addictive beyond Josh’s condition. This is because it contains caseomorphines which interacts with similar receptors in our brains that drugs do. This compound is in dairy milk to bond baby with mom. This is why dairy is one of the most difficult foods to quit eating.
That’s what I thought too the cheeseburger guy. It’s all here in Southern California so who knows. He looks more like his uncle or even Dr Dow than TV Dad.
Nah B Bodziak is right. I tried a diet program which transitioned from half fruit / half veggie to full veggie and it's way easier. It's precisely because of the sugar that makes it easier to transition. Easier to go from 0 to 50 and to 100 than from 0 to 100
@@societycrumbles Hence, why I said "transition". It's like they made him go cold turkey so to speak from the white flour and fats directly to fiber and too few carbs. Fruit would have replaced some of the carbs he was missing from the white flour in the crusts and made it easier for him to adjust to his new, healthier diet. Of course, there's always editing. We don't know if what actually happened was all shown in the video.
I got to where I had a small pizza once a week, every week, for like almost a year. I gained A LOT of weight from it. I had to tear away from it because of how much money I was spending on that and other fast foods. And it was making me very miserable. But some days, I just didn't care. I wanted that full feeling along with the pure deliciousness that is pizza. The ultimate comfort food. I haven't had any at all in almost 2 months and I feel so much better. The next time I eat it, it will be thin crust for sure. Lol just to help a little bit. That's the worst part about it, is the crust. I was definitely a fast food addict and I had to get away from it before it ruined my body even more.
@@pandashrimp9274 I hear you wanting the satation along with the deliciousness. My problem is when it's thin crust I never feel full. I'll just do a stuffed crust 2 or 3 times a year. My birthday for sure. And a salad first to jump start the fullness.
I understand addictions do weird things to the brain, but it baffles me how he can eat the same thing 24/7 and not even consider the possibility of that having to do with his mysterious illness
When you start watching this and litteraly like a minute in you crave pizza more than life itself, to then realize someone made the frozen pizza you bought for yourself the day prior 😭
in all seriousness, i developed lactose intolerance when i turned 30 & had similar mysterious symptoms until i found out that dairy was making me very ill. i've been a non-junk-food vegan for three years, and although i miss the comfort of certain foods... it's so rad not feeling or looking like garbage anymore.
I went vegan too with lactose intolerance, I felt a lot better without dairy. I’m a vegan junkfood eater tho, i still eat a lot of unhealthy stuff, but luckily I’m not having many problems anymore.
I’m lactose intolerant too but I take lactose pills often cause even though I cut out milk, I can’t resist a good ice cream or cheesecake , or cheese 🤤 but yea dairy is a surprisingly easy thing to remove from your diet without too much difficulty, there’s so many dairy alternatives out there now. There’s even a lactose free option for most dairy products now a days
At the root this isn’t about pizza, but it’s about Josh’s sense of self-worth and the enormous value of his life. There are other ways people form various addictions that destroy their lives too. I hope and pray he’s continued to find his way forward with improved nutrition but also and especially with the love and continued support of his family and friends who care about him. Live long and prosper, Josh!
I’ll admit, I love pizza. I love to have a slice or two once in a while but I’m not so addicted to pizza that I wanna eat it 3 times a day or seven days a week.
I can't imagine only eating pizza for the rest of my life, I'm surprised this man has survived this long on nothing but, cheese, bread, tomato sauce, pepperoni and things. stuff like that.
I ate some pizza every day for about a year and a half. I’m diabetic, weight about 135, and work in manual labor with an active lifestyle. I would grab a slice of ny style (thin crust for people who don’t know) made with fresh ingredients every day on my way home from work. It was my pre-dinner snack. I couldn’t imagine having to exist on only pizza. I live in north east Pennsylvania and have great and diverse pizza choices but man can not live on pizza alone.
Crazy how you only weigh 135 even though you're diabetic. Too much pizza can make you gain weight very fast. Pizza is a greasy food and greasy foods can lead to a lot of heart issues. I wouldn't reccomend eating pizza everyday for a year if you are diabetic.
Love how they say "no school, no career, Josh had no life". I hope you all realize food addiction or not that school nor a career should define your "life".
They weren’t implying that school or career define your life. They were just giving examples of things most people participate in, where as Josh was not doing those very normal things, and likely wasn’t doing much of anything then either. With no school or work, how would he even have money to “live life” and do other things? It’s was just a general statement, not a declaration of life-defining characteristics
I mean, if we lived in a world where health issues never existed, I would eat pizza every day too. I could eat pizza every day, it's one of my favorite foods.
Back home, me and my twin can eat a pizza a day for lunch, easy - sometimes, if we're eating different kinds of pizza (he likes chorizo, I can't stand it), he'll eat a mini pizza and I'll eat a smaller veggie pizza
I’m still wondering about that. If you eat a pizza with the works, veggies and meat, it seems like a good balanced meal. Veg, protein, dairy, carb, fats…
@@lang-ed3bk as long as they don't use transfat, ganola oil, too much white four, processed cheese and too much salt and sugar then it's probably okay to eat these frequently. That means fast food pizzas are out of the game.
why do they they show everything in year's measure.If you are shown the amount of water you drink in a year that will be size of a pond(thats going to look scary too)
This show is about people who were once asked “if you could eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?” And they took it to heart.

Not this video having a Domino's ad. We didn't stop at pizza,and you shouldn't either. 😂😂😂
Only legends watched this video 3 years ago
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrp
Preach
I think it's reuploded
Arrielle DEANE it is
Omg I thought this was new
I understand addictions do weird things to the brain, but it baffles me how he can eat the same thing 24/7 and not even consider the possibility of that having to do with his mysterious illness
I’m a recovering addict and alcoholic and can confirm that denial is insanely powerful. It nearly killed me.
Denial denial denial
This takes "if you could eat one food forever" to a new level
I love how they just walked out the bushes lol 😂
When you start watching this and litteraly like a minute in you crave pizza more than life itself, to then realize someone made the frozen pizza you bought for yourself the day prior 😭
Josh: having severe headache in bed
Cameraman: “well this is awkward”
i LOVE pizza but damn if I ate it for every meal everyday I’d get tired of it 😭
Just like music. If you listen to a song too much it gets boring
DAAAAANG, that happened to me and rice
@@yeknom626 same I wish I could like something forever but yeah
I never get tired of it. If I didn't have common sense, I could be josh.
I love pizza but same lol.
This episode changed my life.
I am now pizza addicted.
in all seriousness, i developed lactose intolerance when i turned 30 & had similar mysterious symptoms until i found out that dairy was making me very ill. i've been a non-junk-food vegan for three years, and although i miss the comfort of certain foods... it's so rad not feeling or looking like garbage anymore.
I went vegan too with lactose intolerance, I felt a lot better without dairy. I’m a vegan junkfood eater tho, i still eat a lot of unhealthy stuff, but luckily I’m not having many problems anymore.
What does rad mean?
I’m lactose intolerant too but I take lactose pills often cause even though I cut out milk, I can’t resist a good ice cream or cheesecake , or cheese 🤤 but yea dairy is a surprisingly easy thing to remove from your diet without too much difficulty, there’s so many dairy alternatives out there now. There’s even a lactose free option for most dairy products now a days
Wich symptoms?
@@SilverCharmbracelet amazing, incredible
If he's throwing up every single day, it could probably be concluded that something isn't good.
Atleast he wanted to do something ab it unlike the others that is like
“oH nO i’m NeVeR gOnNa ChAnGe”
FREAKING DOMINOS AD WHILE IM WATCHING THIS
His grandma’s house is the most grandma’s 🏡 I’ve ever seen.
Josh is probably the most relatable person in this series.
He’s lovely, and Mysti is too!
If I ate like this every day, I would have to move in a wheelchair
I don’t get how he’s still got the money
Same bro if I eat pizza for 2days
I would gain 2 or 3 kg for sure
Some people are just lucky like this guy
@@emanuelbreezy7423 We have high metabolisms 😏 though I eat healthy and take vitamins so I can become a better b-ball player and get taller
@@oof3479 same
8:09 he doesn't look shock he looks very excited😂
Yeah lol
At the root this isn’t about pizza, but it’s about Josh’s sense of self-worth and the enormous value of his life. There are other ways people form various addictions that destroy their lives too. I hope and pray he’s continued to find his way forward with improved nutrition but also and especially with the love and continued support of his family and friends who care about him. Live long and prosper, Josh!
Shut up bozo
No I’m pretty sure this is about pizza.
I’ll admit, I love pizza. I love to have a slice or two once in a while but I’m not so addicted to pizza that I wanna eat it 3 times a day or seven days a week.
@VinceSM That’s how I am with Doritos, I can’t just have one or two dorito chips, I’m either eating half or the whole bag. And I mean the big bag
Same
I love pizza!
He is one of the few freaky eater patients who didn’t gross me out.
I know!
the US version is definitely more nausea inducing than the UK version
I think it’s even more sad how his uncle is way more concerned about Josh’s health and his future way more than his OWN parents
Meanwhile in another universe:
Man addicted to french fries tries pizza for more options
I can't imagine only eating pizza for the rest of my life,
I'm surprised this man has survived this long on nothing but, cheese, bread, tomato sauce, pepperoni and things.
stuff like that.
20:00 you can really see the betrayal on his face 😂😂😂😂
0:44 ah yes, you helping will grant him immortality
Always love the showdown when his brother order pizza right after Josh just order something else xD
I ate some pizza every day for about a year and a half. I’m diabetic, weight about 135, and work in manual labor with an active lifestyle. I would grab a slice of ny style (thin crust for people who don’t know) made with fresh ingredients every day on my way home from work. It was my pre-dinner snack. I couldn’t imagine having to exist on only pizza. I live in north east Pennsylvania and have great and diverse pizza choices but man can not live on pizza alone.
Crazy how you only weigh 135 even though you're diabetic. Too much pizza can make you gain weight very fast. Pizza is a greasy food and greasy foods can lead to a lot of heart issues. I wouldn't reccomend eating pizza everyday for a year if you are diabetic.
I watches this episode everytime before I eat my pizza for extra tastiness
Bless this young man. He’s not hurting anyone. He looks great. Let him eat pizza
17:25 When his sister came in "brother I got some food" 😂
am I the only one wondering from where on earth and how did they afford for all those pizzas-
An average meal for an American is 5-10 dollars, his' is 10-20. They must've had a good bank account i guess
Frozen pizzas are like 2 dollars
Do you mean josh or the specialists? Bc pizza can be pretty cheap but the specialists for sure just ordered empty pizza boxes lol
Probably it is just boxes
I assumed he was a millionaire. That was my first thought. Where I live, a large pizza is $30.
Poor Josh, he doesn't realize that the foods we eat have a great impact on how we feel, our health. I'm glad he was able to get help 👍🙏🙏
Is this supposed to make me want pizza? Mission accomplished-
One bite- everybody knows the rules...
Love how they say "no school, no career, Josh had no life". I hope you all realize food addiction or not that school nor a career should define your "life".
And you are beautiful for saying that
They weren’t implying that school or career define your life. They were just giving examples of things most people participate in, where as Josh was not doing those very normal things, and likely wasn’t doing much of anything then either. With no school or work, how would he even have money to “live life” and do other things?
It’s was just a general statement, not a declaration of life-defining characteristics
It’s not what you got, but what you give .
I hope Josh is doing well and doing something he loves. This is one of my favorite "freaky eater" episodes I've seen.
Same. The pizza looks so good.
Well, he loves eating pizza . . .
I mean, if we lived in a world where health issues never existed, I would eat pizza every day too. I could eat pizza every day, it's one of my favorite foods.
Watching this while waiting for my pizza delivery
Me: Asks my mom for pizza for dinner twice a week
My mom: You’re addicted to pizza.
Josh: Allow me to introduce myself
I worked at pizza places for god knows how long before and even AFTER graduating college. Yet this man actually made me crave a slice…
Did you meet Josh?
I love pizza, but I can't imagine actually eating that much!!!
Sssame
I think maybe that is what heaven is like?
Me neither. I guess my pizza addiction is more like a craving because I only eat it like once every two weeks.
Back home, me and my twin can eat a pizza a day for lunch, easy - sometimes, if we're eating different kinds of pizza (he likes chorizo, I can't stand it), he'll eat a mini pizza and I'll eat a smaller veggie pizza
In school in the 80's they taught us that pizza was the healthiest food because it had all 4 food groups 🤣🤣🤣
I’m still wondering about that. If you eat a pizza with the works, veggies and meat, it seems like a good balanced meal. Veg, protein, dairy, carb, fats…
@@lang-ed3bk It's usually very salty though, that's the major issue i think.
😂😂😂
@@lang-ed3bk as long as they don't use transfat, ganola oil, too much white four, processed cheese and too much salt and sugar then it's probably okay to eat these frequently. That means fast food pizzas are out of the game.
The girl in the video:he'll eat pizza cold one day old
Me:that rhymed
Lol
