Id like to add no matter who you are the more overweight you are the easier it is to lose weight in the beginning from taking in less calories after a while your body gets use to it and you start to lose less...I know if I stuck with this I would continue to lose weight but it wont be 6lbs every week eventually it would be 5 then 4 and so on until it was a lb or so each week...but well see I do plan to try it again to see if its consistent both in quality and with the weight loss...
I can’t afford a meal plan. I’m 185 and trying to loose some slight love handles. I’ve been eating brown rice, chicken breast and broccoli for the last couple months. Works good. Good luck cutlerybro
I started drinking my coffee black and I’m loosing weight. I plan an hiking and camping this summer so that’s my exercise. lol this will be a great summer for all of us. Good luck to you Jeff and everyone else.
My young brother - I hope you are not too consumed with focusing on the wrong thing, as if your weight determines your value as a man. I have watched your vids for many years now. Your weight is so insignificant to your power to influence young viewers, as well as old, (I am 62). You have the mass-media power to change lives and outlooks. And you do. You are a positive role model for so many. Kind, thoughtful, interesting, and analytical. It's great to fight to be more healthy, keep going. But heavy or skinny, your weight does not define you. I would give anything to have a man like you as a son or spouse for one of my girls. Take on the battle, but win or lose, you are one of the best we have.
Just a tip for the chicken and waffles, if you don't want to use syrup but still want to add some moisture just squirt some hot sauce on there. Chicken and waffles is typically served with syrup and hot sauce anyways and hot sauce has little to no calories at all. I also know you love it based on your videos!
Hi Jeff I'm also on a weight loss kick, I'm splitting it into weekly cycles, one week chicken ,rice,couscous, cauli and broccoli rice one week chicken and salad, weekly weigh ins, losing about 9lbs per month seems to be working well for me good luck stay focused mate all the best from the uk.
That's super solid results and losing a healthy amount of weight in the process. Two more weeks and you could break through that barrier and see a 2 in the hundreds. To me, that is a huge milestone on the journey. Great video and great work, Jeff!
c'mon, safe your money and eat better than this. no special diet needed. avoid pop at all cost and count your calorie intake (various apps available). stay under 2000/day and you'll be surprised how simple that is.
Diet soda is worse for you. It tricks your body into thinking its sugar and you start getting sugar cravings. My doc told me to stay away from ALL pops.
Yeah I guess....it seems to always come back to the mental discipline side of things in the end. Your bodies not really making you do anything. You're a homo sapien, one of the most evolved life forms in existence (that we know of). You have total control over everything that you choose to ingest. You can starve yourself to death in a room full of food if you wanted too. But drinking diet pop is gonna make you eat garbage food ? I don't buy it. And I happen to like diet pop so I'm gonna choose not to believe that lol.
limodrivermike Drink water before eating it will make you feel full and chew slow it takes 15 minutes for the brain to register that your full, that's why in Europe they take hour's off for lunch because they take a while to eat, vs the U.S. an hour brake for lunch so people try to speed eat
Keep up the diet. I have gone from 84kg to 73 over 2 months of healthy food and exercise. Basicly breakfast is fruit and 4 slices of toast, lunch fruit and chicken sandwich, dinner salad with lean meat and veg. Ecercise a min 1 hour per day. You dont need pre made meals.
Hey Jeff just as a thought and advise. The most important thing to loose weight is sugar intake and portion size. You need to cut sugar out completely and lower portion size. I lost a lot of weight from doing that alone. Good luck.
Thank you SO much for editing out most of the chewing and mouth noises. I love food reviews, but I HATE when people chew into microphones. Thank you thank you thank you!!!
That green chili sauce reminded me of what happened to me last week. I was at this Mexican place and they had green hot sauce with the chips, so I took a good helping of it because I thought it was just made with jalapeños. But it was actually made with habeneros. Because of the unexpected, my mouth was on fire!
We are almost the same weight. I’ve dropped a few pounds and am now 314 pounds. I have always been a big fat Guy (6 foot 4)and always was around 299-300 pounds. Sadly after receiving medication my weight jumped to 399 pounds in only a few months time. No matter what I tried I couldn’t get rid of it again until I got sick and dropped 55 pounds in two months time... now, almost 3 years later I am slowly dropping more weight again (couldn’t do anything about the weight the past couple of years because of my sickness). I am slowly working on dropping weight until I reach 250-260 pounds
Hey man, I lost 150 in one year on weight watchers. The first two week totally suck because it’s more like you’re detoxing from sugar/grease but I would recommend everyone do weight watchers. Just push yourself through the first two weeks
Have you tried doing intermittent fasting? Either 20/4 or 16/8? Its really great bacause you can basically stuff all your daily calories in 2-3 huge meals during your «eating window». Worked wonders for me since I was always getting super hungry at night when i was losing weight.
Honest question from a guy who tries to stay low-carb: how do they call it ‘Keto’ with all those carbs? I usually don’t have 40g of carbs all day. Regardless of opinions- this is what has always worked for me. Although I *do* miss my beer/bread/etc, etc!
thanks I know keto works for many people, but Im not sure how it is for your body long term, know anyone whos been on Kept for 20 years? whats their health like? I am not lieing to myself I will have bread and beer in the future at some point and in moderation, I gave them both up for a long time already but I want to be use to eating a certain way and not write off certain types of foods forever its not realistic...
cutlerylover I am as close as I know. I was 498lb. and now 260. Been at it for 16 years and I have blood work every 6 mo. My numbers are fantastic. That said: I slip off the wagon now and then. It’s not a religion so I don’t sweat it when I do. I just feel like crap and that reminds me to get back ‘on the path.’ Not trying to convince anyone but I researched a ton mixed with my own results. Most importantly, how i FEEL. It’s all that’s worked for me after trying everything an obese guy would try (W. W. , Optifast, meal plans - you name it). I brew beer and LOVE cooking and food! It’s all that has worked for me. But everyone has to find their ‘thing.’ If you like to read I can recommend some great (if deep) books on the very questions you’re asking.
cutlerylover I forgot to clarify: I was referring to the name of the first (or second?) dish in the video. It was Keto Stew or something. Missed mentioning that.
Love your channel and your collections especially your balisong collection. I'm also a (bit big).... at 416 lbs..... And know the struggle and hope we can both hit our goles. By the way this might seem odd but i love design of the spoon and fork they look verry sturdy and comfortable to hold and love the loop on the backs. Did you craft them yourself or buy them and if you bought them do you remember where you bought them or the name because i would really like to get some myself because i hate how flimsy the ones at most stores feel.
So much of the advice we get from the health professionals is simply wrong. But, I have two truths to offer: 1) Consuming fat is not the problem. What causes us to put on weight is sugar. Carbs in general, but processed sugar in particular. So, eliminate all sweets. 2) Eggs are a good food. No one has ever demonstrated scientificly that eggs are bad for you. Eggs in the morning can leave you satisfied many, many hours. Cereal in the morning will leave you hungry all day. Eggs have been found to be especially good for weight control in diabetics.
Hey Jeff (cutlerylover), My girlfriend and I love all of your review videos. I'm pretty sure you are the only youtuber that is entertaining and gives honest opinions. We've learned alot from you since we've been watching your videos too. Keep up the hard work! I know the "youtube life" of making videos and hours of editing is time consuming and sometimes frustrating but can be fun as well. Anyway... you've got 2 fans here from Kingsport, TN! Take care, Steve
I really like the idea, but it's a little over $8.00/meal. That seems like it's a bit high for what you get (IMHO). I think I'd sign up if it were $5.00/meal or less.
The portions are a bit heavy compared to what I normally eat for breakfast and lunch. Dinner was about normal. I wounder if this would be less or more food then I am used too? Hum.
I think the biggest thing to weight loss is portion size. You can eat all of the healthy food that you want and gain weight just because the portion size is way too big. Just burn more calories than you take in and also focus on your portion size when eating healthy foods.
American Survivalist: Exercise to lose weight is a logical but never really proven idea. When we exercise, appetite is stimulated. Respond to this appetite impulses and there is no benefit to exercise.
Jeff please THROW THAT SCALE AWAY (no sense in watching it go up and down the rest of your life), eat lots of veggies/fruits every day, balance the rest, exercise at least every other day, live a good life and enjoy yourself.
When you heated the meals in the oven did you cover the containers? If you didn't that might be the cause of the dryness in the meals. Just wondering. the pasta with the itailian stallion is isreal pearl couscous. Very tasty. I do a low carb "strongaoff" by adding 2 cans of green beans with mushrooms, a can of cream of mushroom soup, water, couple shots of worshire sauce to a Lb of ground fried beef. Very tasty nom nom.
Thanks for the info :) but the oven wasnt the casue of the dryness in the chicken and waffles as the items themselves were not dry it just need a sauce the same as any fresh waffle would be dry on its on or any chicken tender by itself would be dry...
healthy is subjective any nutritional would say balance oif fats sugars and protein are important regardless of their source...but im not getting that deep into it as long as calories are not too high and I get enough of each important element Ill lose weight in a healthy way
Jeff keep it up man, you're stronger than i am. I'm about 290 give or take and i just can't find a way to stay motivated to stick with a diet or anything. I've tried working out and the longest i stuck with something was 4 months and i got down to 265 but this was a few years back. Losing the weight would be awesome but i'm just too lazy to keep doing it. Hope you can reach the goal you set man.
A lot of nos in these meals. I wish someone I watch would follow Dr. Berg' s advice. It works for me when I stick to it, I think you would have more fortitude and it would be cool to see how it works for you.
Cut out bread and sugar. It’ll change the game for you! Lift heavy weights, and do some hiking when possible, three times a week and consume good quality proteins and you’ll feel one hundred times better every day!
Why not download My Fitness Pal, count calories to be in a deficit, and go paleo so you don’t have to eat this garbage. There are a ton of excellent paleo UA-cam channels, most notably Daniele Walker. She’s the absolute best. Good luck man.
Most of that shit looks like its full of salt, fat and cholesterol. Probably has a decent amount of carbs too. The only redeeming thing is the portion size. You can lose weight far more effectively while eating twice as much if you eat the right foods. Granted those foods are mostly lifeless and flavorless chicken, fish and veggies....but that's what does it. Mental discipline.
Id like to add no matter who you are the more overweight you are the easier it is to lose weight in the beginning from taking in less calories after a while your body gets use to it and you start to lose less...I know if I stuck with this I would continue to lose weight but it wont be 6lbs every week eventually it would be 5 then 4 and so on until it was a lb or so each week...but well see I do plan to try it again to see if its consistent both in quality and with the weight loss...
cutlerylover dude, I like your forks.
cutlerylover I'm the oppsit I need to put wait on because I burn it off using my upper body all the time no matter how much I eat or what I eat.
Dude where did those forks come from i want them
cutlerylover have you met with a registered dietician to plan your meals?
I can’t afford a meal plan. I’m 185 and trying to loose some slight love handles. I’ve been eating brown rice, chicken breast and broccoli for the last couple months. Works good. Good luck cutlerybro
Look into fasting if you haven't already. I've experienced amazing results myself from it. Especially for the last bit of fat.
eat white rice instead of brown rice
brian jones you mean anorexia?
Kire EDC Add some fresh green beans, spinach, and pinto beans into the mix. Also cheap and flavorful.
Kire EDC ohhh and lentils. Nigga i'm hungry now
I started drinking my coffee black and I’m loosing weight. I plan an hiking and camping this summer so that’s my exercise. lol this will be a great summer for all of us. Good luck to you Jeff and everyone else.
Jeff that is great. I support what you are doing. My mother has struggled with her weight her whole life. It has cause her health problems.
Keep it up Jeff. Been following you for a long time nice to see you keeping your heath in mind. I'm pulling for you bud.

No problem. Thanks for reading my paragraph long comment. Lol. Have a nice day!

This video made me hungry lol all the dishes looked delicious
Good luck. Is the food good enough to eat long term?
The portions are a bit heavy compared to what I normally eat for breakfast and lunch. Dinner was about normal. I wounder if this would be less or more food then I am used too? Hum.
4:20
Yup that's a Power Ranger.
I think one of the original ones lol.

the tortilla would be healthier than the rice. Less carbs.
Not at all. Carbs don't make things unhealthy it's the fat that does. Plain rice doesn't contain fat and a tortilla does.
healthy is subjective any nutritional would say balance oif fats sugars and protein are important regardless of their source...but im not getting that deep into it as long as calories are not too high and I get enough of each important element Ill lose weight in a healthy way
Carbs don't mark you fat. Excess calories make you fat. No matter what they are.
Keep up the good work man.
JEFF SMIT THIS VIDEO MAKE HUNGRY THE ME
how is the KETO shrimp 30g of carbs? EVERY meal was a fuck ton of carbs and very little fat you should do the opposite of what their diet is
Nice video, this was well done
What weight were you a few years back when you lost all that weight?
Review bra is shaking in his dress shoes right now
Werent you under 280 couple months ago?
Jeff keep it up man, you're stronger than i am. I'm about 290 give or take and i just can't find a way to stay motivated to stick with a diet or anything. I've tried working out and the longest i stuck with something was 4 months and i got down to 265 but this was a few years back. Losing the weight would be awesome but i'm just too lazy to keep doing it. Hope you can reach the goal you set man.
Chocobullock cut out sugar/carbs and eat mostly protein and fats. I went from 240 to 200(6'3) in 5 months. Keto diet works
Highly recommend the ketogenic diet check out Dr. Eric Berg on UA-cam for info
A lot of nos in these meals. I wish someone I watch would follow Dr. Berg' s advice. It works for me when I stick to it, I think you would have more fortitude and it would be cool to see how it works for you.
You really should just try to make your own meals and count calories and make sure you get enough protein in your meals.
thats the end goal, this is a jump start
6:43 is that real damascus?
yeah, buck and bear steak knife
Cutlerylover its beautiful
Drink a glass of water before eating you will eat less
Italian Stallion lmao
You going to keep the weight off this time?
If anyone says "pop" instead of "soda" you should jump off the top of your house
Cut out bread and sugar. It’ll change the game for you! Lift heavy weights, and do some hiking when possible, three times a week and consume good quality proteins and you’ll feel one hundred times better every day!
That pasta thing looked like acini di pepe to me
I would starve eating these. I’m just saying I eat three times as much as these. I weigh 170. 6’ 2
Wassup I got here first.
MISTA Incognito no you didn't I did lol Jk 😂😂😂
Why not download My Fitness Pal, count calories to be in a deficit, and go paleo so you don’t have to eat this garbage. There are a ton of excellent paleo UA-cam channels, most notably Daniele Walker. She’s the absolute best. Good luck man.
