Go get it! Taking the first step is hard, but being consistent might be harder, it won't get any easier but the reward will get bigger and bigger! Just do it... trust me, I've been where you are. You got this
The man who fasted for a year was Angus Barbieri of Tayport Scotland. He was 27 years old and weighed 456 lbs when he began the fast in July 1966 and 180 lbs when he ended the fast 382 days later. The whole time his fast was supervised by doctors at Maryfield Hospital who monitored his condition and recommended vitamin and electrolyte supplements as necessary along with coffee, tea and water. I don't know how he came to get so heavy but his family kept a fish and chip shop which may have had something to do with it.
@@thestoik5440 it is really an embarassment. I think i read up somewhere that obesity rate in Japan is 5% and their national sport is sumo wich tells a lot...
Yes, and no. Your joints kill but tired is tired. As long as you stayed hydrated it's just dealing with the pain. The mornings suck. So much stiffness and pain. 1h plus of stretching just to get moving. If you can deal with that it's doable.

"Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth." - Mike Tyson. Many people see these videos and when it comes to work they get a taste and quit. They want instant results. These stories are extreme and have a person motivating. The accountability is how you get through it. At the end, you have to look at yourself. The guy that lost all that weight and gained 100 back will most likely gain even more weight than he had previously. Its easy when someone is telling you to do something. When you have to motivate yourself, many people quit. I wish this wasn't true but most people will quit.
The most weight that I gained after a bodybuilding show is 20 lbs in a week. It totally shocked my system. The reason that guy gained so much weight afterwards is that he was on a very unrealistic diet. I’ve found that best way to loose weight is to put or go on a realistic diet. Eating fruits and vegetables at all times isn’t realistic. Been there done that, the moment you eat normal you will start to put on weigh.
1. No soda, or any other drink with chemicals. Just water, natural tea or homemade lemonade. Everything else is a no no. If ppl did that they'd lose weight without even doing anything else. 2. Find out what type of eat schedule works for you. Some ppl need a little often, some do better with more food, but in longer intervals. 3. Chew and eat slower than what we're normally accoustum to. 4. Mild portion control, it doesn't need to be some Nazi rations either, just not a be Asshole. 5. Obviously move around pshyically, but if you do the first 4 things than you don't even need to kill yourself to maintain a average body.
Nathan Henson Good advice. My advice based on the current scientific literature: eat plenty of fruits and vegetables with fiber, good fibrous grains, dairy, seafood, legumes, nuts & seeds, lean meats. Avoid excessive intakes of saturated fats, added sugars, refined starches processed meats. That doesn’t mean you can’t have some. But the totality of the literature indicates we should keep these items on a low to moderate limit. Avoid extended periods of overeating.
I stopped working out after I met my goal of losing 41 lbs after having 13 pulmonary embolisms. Went from 216 to 175lbs. I have an at home gym I've built up over the years, I just lost motivation. I needed to hear this Joe, thank you. Hopefully in the future I can link up with some people that'll keep me straight. I dropped 41lbs in 2.5 months with intermittent fasting, clean eating, & macro counting. I wouldn't workout more than 2 hours a day(typically a strenuous 45min-1hour), dropping my caloric intake based on what my weight was for that week. I even had the calories I burned in my sleep accounted for. Side note: I had the embolisms because I sat too long in the car on a 1300 mile road trip. No previous issues, nothing. Healthy heart, liver, all was good. Just sat too long. Thankfully I was always extremely active when I was younger, otherwise I'm not sure if I would've made it. A coworker of mine lost her brother in law to just one embolism.
This video has inspired so much, when this video came out i was 295 pounds and now im down to 237 pounds. If any reads this. You can do it and i hope you suceed in it.
Joe talking about making a schedule as a motivating tool. Definitely what's helped me the most these past couple of years! Though with me it's more about making up a 'streak' and keeping it going. Learned French every day for two years straight! Went through a bunch of books, online courses, youtube series, apps,... just to keep that streak going and keep pushing forward. Took cold showers straight through winter for like 5 months, every day. Worked out for a couple of years there, for nine months I worked out every day. Read classic literature every night because it was just something I always wanted to do. Right now I'm 27 days into teaching myself how to play the piano. Was always something I wanted to do, learn an instrument, could never get it together, seems to be going fine now, finally. Also wrapping up a 4-month diet. Been writing down everything I ate, really paid attention to it, skipped some meals, had a bunch of smaller-than-usual-for-me meals, nothing too complicated. Went from 210 down to 177. With the ultimate goal being 'under 176 lbs, or under 80 kg.' I'm 6'4'' so I'm kinda skinny, but that's what I wanted.:D Hey, I'm not perfect, a lot of the stuff I've started through this time, I've also quit, like working out! Some stuff I stopped because I just ended up thinking it was pointless or I found that I could keep it going without needing to do 'em every goddamn day. Still, for a guy like me, that's always had issues motivating himself, the fact that I managed to keep some of this shit going for years, that's pretty crazy. And, whatever, I'm doing something, I'm trying. With the power of the STREAK!
What Joe describes at the end (100 pushups/ChinUps/situps) is actually how I started to lose 120lbs. Eventually doubled it to 200 and then into more full body cardio/plyo excercise, but starting with cumulative goals like Joe suggests is actually a great way to begin.
@@basketballplayer4978 as someone who does pull-ups I'd be surprised if someone 100 ibs overweight could do more than 4 or 5 pull-ups if their very strong. Lots of people can't even do one. They don't burn that much calories either.
Been weight lifting since may 13 2020. 5'2 23 y/o female 170lbs start weight . I am 2 months In I'm 160lbs. Its slow and steady, no cardio. It's slowly but this feels more of a lifestyle change and I have been a part of these diets before where you limit yourself to only lose muscle, water and dignity. I eat what is normal meats veggies. I do indulge in fast foods here and there. Nothing is planned, Just making better choices and like Greg Doucette says, TRAIN HARDER THAN LAST TIME...♥️♥️
fasting helped me lose about 30 lbs. I felt amazing. I had so much energy, felt light as a feather, but the only downside is how boring it gets. You don't realize how much of your day is occupied by eating until you don't. The longest I ever went was a week and I probably could have gone longer but not eating is boring and "weird" to others. Which, if our ancestors had to follow herds of mammoth across miles and miles of field, they probably _did_ eat only once or twice a week.
Yea writing it down works, my rules is I write my workout for the day on the board and underneath it I write “once it’s on the board, it gets done” so I don’t cut it short
Joe you’ve got to meet Dr Jason Fung he’ll explain it all re: fasting & excess skin, it’s called Autophagy the discovery of which led to an Nobel prize.
@@stevend481 his latest video? Where he repeatedly calls him Dr Dung? On his site where he's trying to aggressively sell his own product and service? The only thing he's "debunking" is his own credibility.
Especially for 20 miles everyday, going on rough terrains! His knees must have been begging for help. But if he was indeed not bullshitting then shoutout to that dude, must’ve felt like hell for him yet he kept going everyday.
@@AJAMbaybay I think Cena is exaggerating. You shouldn't push somebody to the extreme on day one, anyway. That shit can cause suicide. Always best to 'taper' off a dangerously bad habit.
i listened to some of the "vegan propaganda" and there is so many stories similar to this. its genuinely mind boggling how a raw plant based diet can flip your life around! Same thing happened to me; i went fully plant based and virtually every single health problem/struggle i had magically vanished within 3 months. Got my life back when i was so certain it wouldn't even be healthy...
@@aritenenbaum391 I haven't noticed any physically visible aspects as I'm still young but I've had rheumatoid arthritis since birth and the pain from that prevented me from working out and getting fit overall, and now on a plant based diet I'm pain free for around 7 months now 🥰. Kudos to you for doing that for so long now! At first I had severe doubts about the whole thing but with the insane changes I've noticed there is no way I'm not sticking to it! Xoxo friend!
I’ve never been obese (I’m almost 6’6”), but I’ve lost 100lbs in a month...TWICE. 300-200. It was just constant exercise and clean eating. I never felt better.
nat banz I cut my caloric intake in half, cut out simple carbs, and ate 1g of protein for every pound I wanted to weigh, a day. Only ate poultry, raw veggies, and low-glycemic carbs. Supplemented with Nordic Naturals fish oil, creatine, milk thistle (liquid), whey isolate, 200mgs of caffeine 2x a day, tribulus, 4000iu of vitamin D, and BCAA aminos. I was at the gym every day. I’d train weights every other day, with a 30min cardio session to warm up, and worked my way up to 90 mins on the elliptical on the days I wasn’t lifting. Sometimes I’d cardio 2x a day. Trick is, to get your heart rate between 130-150 during cardio, and keep it there as long as possible. Nothing else matters-ignore distance. Ignore resistance and interval training, until you’re able to do those 90 minutes easily. A great weight-training program to start? www.mensjournal.com/health-fitness/eternal-beach-body-workout-plan/ Here’s a source to determine your daily caloric intake. Cut your daily need by 50%, and don’t increase until your fat stores are depleted: www.calculator.net/calorie-calculator.html Don’t even weigh yourself, because you’re going to be building muscle, and the number will discourage you. Just look in the mirror, and notice how your clothes fit. Good luck!!!
Being obese is NOT acceptable. Some people don't get a chance at life, children born prematurely or not at all, people are taken before their time in freak accidents or disease and then there's some people who decide to use their chance by abusing their body and taking it for granted. Honestly its disgusting and they're no better than drug addicts, this is coming from someone who used to be 120kg (264lbs) now i weigh 79kg (174lbs) work out 5-6 times a week, go boxing, hike up mountains, rarely drink or eat junk food, dont do social media and just generally live a more fulfilling life. If you're overweight and are wanting to make this journey i wish you all the best and if you start you're already better than most, take control of your body and mind, be disciplined and formidable.
Nah what it means is this guys methods are apsolute bullshit and you dont lose actual weight. You also can’t lose 100 pounds in 30 days. I don’t even know why people are praising it
@@conormackey204 Agreed. This guy was completely full of shit. Right off the bat, you have a 600 pound dude walking 10 miles a day? Bullshit. Joe Rogan knew it was bullshit and was questioning this guy about how many hours it took.
When I was in my late teens, if I went to McD's for breakfast, I would order a large coffee and 5 McMuffins. I was 6'3 and about 175lbs at the time. I think metabolism plays a big part in becoming obese vs not becoming obese. Now that I'm 51, I don't go to McD's anymore, I eat (mostly) healthy, but I'm up to about 210 lbs. Obviously my metabolism has slowed down. I'm also nowhere near as active. So I guess that doesn't help.
You’re brave and Plz keep going! I’m 18 and my mom tells me to enjoy the crazy energy of me eating a lot on not being heavy. As you get older your, body slows down. I’m losing belly fat as smart as I can.
As you get older, you lose muscle. Something like 1% per year. But muscle is closely linked to your resting metabolic rate. When you control for muscle mass, ageing doesn't cause weight gain. Different for women, who have hormonal chsnges going on. But anyway, you're doing well for your age, but I'd say if you lifted, some of that fat would fall off!
I lost 100lbs in 6 months while eating tacobell and bologna sandwiches. I worked out for one hour every morning just doing mild weights and a treadmill. It's not about what you eat it's about how much.
I did a juicing fast for 90 days an lost 150 lbs. i was at 430lbs at my heaviest currently im at 225 its been 5 years since i started my weightloss journey it definitely worked for me
Andrew Gundy day 1-3 were easy day 4-6 started getting hunger pains an cramping a little bit but after that my body adjusted to it an it became very easy
.....your the bomb dude.....I run in the sun at noon here in Siam....why? Cause it's outside my comfort zone.....been doing it for 15 years. I come up with new runs every now and then to spice things up...."The avoidance of discomfort" remark really rang true with me....
If you consistently pursue pleasure and avoid discomfort you may never know how amazing it feels on the flip side. Once you really embrace discomfort and take control of unhealthy pleasures - your physical, mental and spiritual health just skyrocket. AND there’s no crash. You stay elevated as long as you continue. Do the do’s and you’ll get the gets.
What's the point of making someone walk 20 miles a day and putting them on an unsustainable diet? It sounds like they just used this guy to get his extreme makeover to promote whatever they're doing. For a diet to work longterm, they have to be able to sustain it. It's the biggest reason people gain back weight after dieting. Keto is a great example of that. Why wouldn't you give the guy protein? Eating high protein gives you satiety. I'm a complete junk food junkie, but eating high protein got me over it.
Exactly. It has to be about sustainable lifestyle adjustments. He could have spent the time after he got the guy down to a functional human weight, to reprogram his mind to a way of eating and exercising that will last forever. The results wouldn’t have been so dramatic, but there is more chance that the guy would have continued to lose weight and gain strength, instead of immediately blowing out.
Absolutely This guy lost ALL credibility. I get you aren’t into the psychological aspects of dieting, but give these ppl a fighting chance by offering a reasonable diet while exercising. You’re no better then The Biggest Loser. There’s a reason why TBL doesn’t have reunion shows
Yup. I found the whole interview annoying. Spartan Races have changed the lives of so many people but never by promoting hard work---not fad diets. Why spend so much time trying to prove to Joe and his listeners that you are a moron with these stories? A highly motivated and motivating moron but a moron nonetheless.
The people that believe this guy are low IQ types who believe in fad diets to begin with. Blown away this video has more likes than disliked when he's clearly lying.
I have done this. Ate only fruit and vegetables and salad. Lost 1 pound a day. Could only stand it for a week or 2, when I added small amounts of protein lost 1/2 pound a day. If I added 2 slices of bread I lost NO weight. If I wanted to lose weight fast I would go on the fruit and veg diet. But it gets boring before long.
That 3 dollar bill is better than nothing! Nothing is that beer and Taco Bell. The dollar bill can actually help you through the hard struggle you lazy ass🤡🤣👍🏽
Alpt of fruits and veggies have ridiculous amounts of sugars and carbs in them. I keep my fruits to only blueberries and strawberrys. I dont eat high carb veggies or potatoes, etc. I eat cabbage , spinach, mixed greens, etc. I incorporate healthy fats like olive, avacodo, almond oil , as well as ghee. I dont eat red meat, it inflames me super bad. I eat chicken and fish. Basically it's a version of keto. I've lost 90 lbs. I'm learning to tweak things here and there.
Mansplainer ideally bf% / 20 = % of weight you should lose every week. Throw in a diet break at caloric maintenance the last week of the month & that turns out to be roughly 60lbs in a month for someone at 600lbs. In 72 weeks that puts them at roughly 200lbs. That’s an incredibly long diet so that’s probably still not feasible
@@tann_man some who is fat and stagnant, and suddenly becomes active all day will see more extreme results. Most differs so not work because that do not address lifestyle changes.
IT IS NOT GENETICS! Prolong FASTING has your body breaking down cells to use for fuel; like fats, skin, etc. The best part about fasting is that the body will FIRST break down the damaged cells.
I've always thought that loose skin after weight loss would depend on RATE of weight loss. Like, if it's the right pace (slow and steady?) then you're body would process it.
I’ve yo-yo dieted all my life. I’m 43. I don’t need motivation to lose weight a single more time in my life. How? I started eating predominantly whole plant foods, as much as I want within the grains, beans, veggies, fruits, nuts, seeds, and herb categories. I even use honey and maple syrup and milk-free choc chips. I eat tons of whole grain bread! I LOVE my food! And more than that, I love the freedom from addiction to food and from the stress of constant dieting :-). The Bible and the Blue zones research contains all the information and proof you need to know that this is the right way to eat to be truly free! I haven’t counted a calorie in a year. My body stays at its ideal weight for the first time in my whole life! And I enjoy food as much and more than ever. No guilt. And as Wim Hof would say, “no force.”
Dr Jason Fong does lots of good research on fasting, and has lots of videos out on how to do this safely. I see the quick results in this video. It's probably not the best way to do it. And leads to rebound and metabolic set point issues and other issues. Better to actually research to make lasting improvement. It's often better just to straight fast with water than to eat some.
700 pounds man on his feet for 7 hours doing a race?? Straight bull shit there is no chance someone that size could be upright that long +you started a 700 pound man hiking ten miles a day no chance bruh...
You have to balance your meals out. All veggies and fruits will only last you so long before you crash. Eating lean meats like fish, eggs and chicken along with your fruits, veggies, grains and dairy. The protein and fat holds your hunger down for several hours.
