@@kr23777 Absolutely wrong. Please see my comment under the OP itself.

Body positivity is insane. You're not finding yourself, you're finding diabetes. Stop eating processed food and get healthy.

Exactly. The obese are preventing someone else from buying that seat, so they should be paying

They call it entitlement 😂😂

im sure they can pay for livestock crate, can be moved with a forklift

Well when you’re two people what do you expect.

What's gross is to have someone's fat spilling over the arm rest.

It has been nowadays

We're at the end of days. All the 7 deadly sins are now normalized, promoted and accepted. This is sloth, gluttony and for the body positive movement pride as well.

​@@chrisblaisdell6255enough with the end of days bs.. People have been spewing that nonsense for decades..

Yes it should be. I'm thin but everyone is different. Who am I to judge?

​@@chrisblaisdell6255 Judgemental much??😂

good luck!

Your future you will thank you.

They are making money

Don't give up!!! you can do it!!!

wishing you all the success with getting ur health back. You will do great first step is admitting there's a problem

That’s on them though. If that’s how they choose to live then so be it.

but its still everyones own choice to be fat or healthy, they can do with their body what they want. The only important thing you are obligated to is not harming others with your daily food choices, so go vegan and leave the animals bodies alone

There is a responsibility to yourself to have a better diet...but, if the food that is everywhere, and advertised everywhere, and advertised as good and healthy, and saves time, and is affordable, it can't just be down to the individual to make better choices. It is even aimed at children, who grow up thinking that this is fine, because they have always been told it is fine, even good, even our governments are part of the problem here, they are aware of the problem, but keep taking money from the big food lobbyists, and allow the high fat, high sugar, high chemical based foods to flood our markets,

@@lukekey Children? I cannot believe you say "it can't just be down to the individual to make better choices!!?!" There's actually no debating people like you because this is the weakest and most pathetic statement I have heard in years.

I mostly agree, but its not one or the other. We can live in a world that is set up to allow people to eat themselves to death so companies can profit. This is wrong. And also person responsibility is a major factor. Honestly fast food is a bad system since they cant even afford to pay their employees a living wage while offering cheap calorie dense food that even poor people can afford to eat regularly. I think both these companies and the people who are being "lazy" and not taking care of themselves have a lot of room for improvement.

dont say that. These companies put stuff in the food to make you addicted. Also they take fiber out to make you eat more. Its not there fault its the fault of the cartel relationship between food companies and government.

It doesn't matter. Please see my comment under the OP to understand why even your better habits aren't going to save you after all, and no, that's not your fault.

Superbly said! There's literally NO difference.

We're in the end of days. Just look at society. All the deadly sins are pushed and accepted.

Well, bars promote drinking. So thats like an alcoholic's Heart Attack Grill 🤷‍♀️ arguments for both sides, on both topics, exist within society. You just have to know where to look

It was meant to be about people with deformed body's or embracing disabilities possibly birth defects, post motherhood and people who lost weight having a lot of excess skin or something. Like people with different body types that didn't fit "beauty standards." It's become a slippery slope that spawned it's evil twin "Fat Positivity." Sure, love yourself but when you do, you will naturally manifest slimming down. Otherwise Obesity is personal denial.

Brilliant metaphor

You can do with your body what you want, the only important thing is to leave others bodies alone so go vegan and stop harming animals

Unfortunately, schools are trying to find ways to cut spending, and junk food is one way to do that. The children would be better if they ate more real, nutritional food.

@emem2863 maybe if we start calling it a war on ignorance they will find the money for education.

allowing them to eat meat should be considered animal abuse

Yes🎉

Why is someone else's weight funny there are rich and poor people of all sizes , source?

Not funny or even ironic. It's about "food deserts" where there's no access to affordable healthy food. Also, if you buy or grow and cook your own food, you're still not safe. See my comment under the OP to understand why.

The rich were fat when food was scarce, so you had to have money to eat well, and those with money didn't need to slave away so they were more sedentary. The poor are fat now because good healthy food is scarce, so you have to have time/money to cook, eat well, and you probably need to be wealthy to 'afford the time' to play sports, exercise, overall have healthy hobbies, whilst those working 2-3 jobs don't. ETA: just because I can empathize and rationalize this doesn't mean I'M a fat person giving 'excuses' lmao

@@WandernHunger yep. Well explained.

If obesity wasn't a problem in our country it would just be a funny novelty. It's not the restaurants problem that our food industrial complex is crooked and that our citizens are dying.

Would it be though? What's novel about overconsumption or unnecessary food waste? It's inane

I find it weird. The fact that many of the customers could be wearing a hospital gown getting real bypasses and being in fear and mortal danger. And the sexualisation too is weird. It is a clever marketing strategy to be controversial but i coukd see that restaurant being looked back on in the future like how we look back on radium water as a medicine or leeching.

@@zanym8088 Novel means unusual, odd, unique and this restaurant is novel enough to have several documentaries about it. Understand language. You don't have to agree with its message but this restaurant is a novelty only in tourist places.

Relax. People go there for fun. Have some fun yourself.

No way. That's madness 😮

​@@MissVanSamPeople over 350 pounds eat for free.

That was the intent. I understand that the whole business was created out of spite by a doctor who was sick of telling fat people to lose weight, only to be argued with fatlogic / ignored.

It's not surprising. People who have underlying Cardiovascular diseases and diabetes can actually have a heart attack or even stroke from eating huge amounts of fats and sugars at once. It's not unheard of, but not sure how common it is. Either way, the Heart Attack Grill , admittedly is encouraging bad health and bad habits to a nation that is now the fattest and sickest of all industrial countries, and it's only getting worse and our health care system seems unable to keep up It's not funny.

I agree. Its sad seeing fat positivity influencers die in their 30s and 40s. I think we should help overweight people feel normal and human so they aren't deterred from going to the gym or seeing doctors and nutritionists. We shouldn't demonize fat people but also don't allow people to lie and say you can be "healthy at any size" when after maybe 300 pounds there are serious health risks and mobility limitations. Its like we can only eat so much food in a lifetime and if when you are 30 you already ate 100 years worth of food, its game over.

But it's not just a matter of saying "I'll pass". Unless you are raised with a healthy diet and have no cravings, your mind can't resist processed food and your body will constantly lead you astray.

If everything is so easily acquired and accessible, how can you justify not being vegan and still causing needless harm towards animals?

I've seen the entire reality series on him and his family. he has the maturity, perspective, and life experience of a preteen.

You should see Casey now. He has lost all the weight and is doing very well.

Exactly. Where I live there are fast food places as well, but I never go there. Of course you are able to get fat on home cooked too, so really they just have all these bad habits of not taking care of themselves.

Cook healthy food. Of course you can get fat cooking at home if you cook unhealthy food.

The victim's mentality he had was ridiculous. Just because something is there doesn't mean you have to eat it.

Good for you. Majority from the 90's on got more fat/obese over time caused by a change in dietary recommendations from mostly meat, eggs, fish, dairy, fat with sides of veg and the odd dessert to mostly veg, grains, legumes, veg oils and fruit. Started I believe because a few US Senators eating way too much rich food had heart attacks and colleagues wanted answers. Plenty of plant based advocates and cereal manufacturers willing to put their hands up and take the funds to produce studies saying what they wanted to hear. The theory being lower calories, plenty of undigestible expelled fibre will 'fix' all issues. Most not enjoying the diet add processed or swapped to processed. This experiment is a massive disaster.

I was 236 lbs 6 years ago. I lost my car and had to start taking the bus. Which ment I had to walk outside in the heat of Florida. I got down to 150,lbs . Today I've gained 20lbs back. It's very scary. There are 2 reasons I feel are why . The first one is I started taking Uber more . Which ment I'm not walking as much and the second is stress. I know that when I'm financially stressed out I snack more. So not exercising like I was has also added to my stress because I'm not releasing the stress. So I got terrified of putting on to much weight so I started taking the bus at least one to three times a week. I've been trying to cut sugar out but I'm so addicted to it that I get headaches and sometimes I feel lightheaded. So that's a work in process. I definitely don't want to gain anymore weight so I have to put in the work even when I don't want to. Especially when I don't want to 😊

@@kristenwebb672, The addiction is real. I cut all sugar out in sept. I'm a work in progress. I just keep reminding myself of the feeling of the stroke. It really sucked and scared me.

Congratulations….. it’s not about health for the food industry, it’s about wealth….. Society eats way too many carbs and sugar!!!! It’s sad… (Standard American Diet)

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

What kind of carbs did you cut out 😊

What do you eat in a typical day. I want to lose wait, too.

Don’t be afraid of carbs. Try eating brown, red or black rice. Sweet potatoes are good too! They will keep you fuller for longer! I promise you that. Put some virgin coconut oil in your oats. That’ll keep you full for longer as well❤️ avocados are good too!

All the foods you listed would completely ruin the weight loss plan. But avocados on the other hand are 100% okay and recommended. ​@MichelleQuintiaVLOGS

Only in America.

My thoughts exactly! It’s sad smh

Den of mortal sin.

It should be called Big Pharma's FDA Slaughter House.

They offered Billy the Fridge a role after their main sort of mascot died and he declined because he planned on losing weight and they would not allow him to do that.

You can't outrun a bad diet, ever.

Not to mention there are no gmos in other countries.

there is truth in what you say, however weight control starts with what you are eating. Exercise will help 20%, not much more.

@@trustinginhim3189 Do you quite understand what a gene is?

Exactly!

I feel you can be a victim of a grocery store and buy some fruits and vegetables

Can opiate users then not be considered victims of the pharmaceutical industry? When tens of thousands of doctors in America were over-prescribing synthetic heroin for PMS and toothaches, who's fault was it that those people became addicted to opiates? If you think like I do, which is that the pharmaceutical industry lied to and preyed on Americans en masse by pushing their poison down our throats, is it then such a far stretch to think that the fast food industry in America might share at least SOME culpability for the prevalence of dangerous and addictive foods in this country? Conversely, if you think that obese Americans are entirely and completely to blame for the obesity epidemic in America, then certainly you must agree that the pharmaceutical industry carries no blame for the opiate epidemic?

You don't understand what happens in what's termed as "food deserts." It's not lack of food, but lack of good quality and affordable food. Also, please see my comment on the OP to understand why even your own better shopping and home-cooking efforts are just useless after all. They might be "better" but they're still futile, and no, that's not your fault, but there are things you can do about it. See that other comment to understand why.

he knows how ridiculous it is, he is going broke for disability and ssi, he wants to eat himself to death and have the state pay for it.

Exactly. Why even have these places ? This is literally killing people.

You can’t blame anyone for capitalizing on you not taking care of yourself .

@@julyrosales I blame them for capitalizing on objectifying women.And you can capitalize on people not taking care of themselves without taking it to the extreme by saying, people can't have lettuce on their burgers.

Its really the only reason I ever care to step foot in vegas again.

The restaurant is simply adressing with loads of irony what every fast food place does. Its like the South Park of burger joints. I really dont think its the restaurant thats creepy here.

No need to go as far to compare people to packages though. The same airlines will charge based on weight for pets, which are live beings. I joked that I would put my dog on a diet before our flight (which obviously wouldn't help because he isn't fat, he's just big), because for him to travel in a cargo section I paid almost as much ($800) as I paid for my own ticket ($1000), and this was based on his weight

Agree. I can't fathom why anyone would want to put themselves through such humiliating degradation. It's almost like some whacky fetish to want to be dehumanized like that. Really disturbing.

So you would go? “Ain’t no way” = there is a way (it’s a double negative)

@@rjws69 you know what I mean. There’s no need to comment as if I’m not making myself clear enough for you. It’s not that serious. I said what I said.

It's so cringe.

I think there’s people who are into that 😅 the “step on me” gang

Cooking is very simple unless you make it difficult. It does not have to be so diverse, only healthy. Breakfast: 5 eggs and 5 sausage. Lunch: plain yogurt. Dinner: fried ground meat in lard or butter, add some cut up vegetables, a potato that's been cooked a few days ago, or some boiled rice, brown a bit and serve! For snack 2 pieces of fresh fruit. That's what we eat daily. It's cheaper than anything you can buy in fast food joints, low carb, and much more nutritious.

YES! I especially love cooking videos from grandmas who have a lifetime of experience. No fancy cameras, no prentions, no expensive ingredients, just good basic healthy food...

Same here. I love looking on RU-vid for recipes. I just adjust the ingredients (such as sugar) if I need to so that it fits my preference. . I never thought I would enjoy meal prepping, but to me, it's fun, better for your health (since you control everything that goes in your meals), and much better for your pocket. 🙂🙂

Unfortunately people have very poor self control now, their brains are wired for instant, unearned and entitled happiness.

Preach sister

talking about not being vegan lol. Right, how about having some accountability?

How poverty can driver the obesity? It’s not cheap to eat McDonald 3 times a day ((it’s not a poverty it’s a laziness

@@kate_alexusa The association poverty has with obesity is widely established. Healthy, nutritional food costs more, which is why poorer people are more likely to eat an unbalanced diet, which in turn restricts opportunities for physical development and increases the risk of obesity. The irony of calling other people lazy whilst displaying intellectual laziness of your own is telling.

We weren’t built to be sitting inside 95% of the time We were built to spend most of our time moving and outside.

Nature "intended" nothing

You don't work 12 hours a day, stop coping and start not over eating

@@slavenrasic2173 Lol the audacity of you 😂 yes I do work 12 hours a day. I'm a medical professional. You, are just an ignoramus

@@Kwadratura wow, such stupidity

Lack of time. But yes, the trade off is worse.

Broiling a chicken breast and steaming some broccoli takes 10 minutes. You would sit in the drive through line longer just waiting for your Super Sized Big Mac meal!

Facts!!! People are just lazy plain and simple. The only anomaly are people in food deserts that don’t have access to fresh food but I agree and see if everyday. Someone would rather go to chipotle or McDonald’s then going to the market.

Women went into work more not cooking is more convenient for tired parents recipes literally has been lost over a generation

Home economics and cooking would be mandatory junior high and high school courses if we really care to reduce obesity and many lifestyle diseases.

They knew what they eat isn't healthy but they want it and don't care. I hear a lot of " I don't care" from people that loves to eat.

The meals that the "nutritionist" was concocting were so the opposite of what healthy humans need.

It's a growth industry for sure.

@@dmackle3849That nutritionist/clinic is a joke. They’re teaching them to go to bed hungry instead of teaching them how to create a healthy plate with fresh & whole foods. Feeding them cereal for breakfast when it’s bad to break your fast with sugar is another issue. I think they want them to rely on them forever. Nasty work.

When I saw cereal and milk I was thinking why not eggs and veggies for breakfast? What? Teach them how to eat so they feel full. Protein, fiber and good fats is what they should be taught. I can't believe those parents paid 31k for their daughters to not actually learn good eating habits.

Facts!!

Swimming is also great exercise especially for really large people because being in the water takes some of the pressure off their bodies + it's a fully body workout

I thought the same thing. Don't blame the town for your inactive life.

And later in the same part they mention a sports centre he goes to so, with all the things you rightfully mentioned, seems like there is plenty of opportunity to be active

Activities are great for fitness, not weight loss. The sucky thing is, Closing your mouth is what works. It's no fun...but... When you fast, energy goes UP!! Keep electrolytes in check!

This is a very uninformed point of view. Poverty is the number one driver of obesity. I'd recommend you do a little research.

@@bl00m1mgt0n don't live in the US but IMO it's not more expensive to eat healtier just takes little more time because you have to cook for yourself. A more organised life and a better knowledge of what can harm your regarding what you put in your mouth is in everybody's reach.

@@ioandanielfarcas8649 I understand your point and I think you’re right to a degree, but doctors and sociologists more qualified than you and I have researched this thoroughly. To lay the blame at the door of the obese simplifies the issue to a huge degree.

@@bl00m1mgt0n yes it is true in many cases but fast food is not that cheap.

@@Cervin_Suisse yes it is.

Exactly even if they are a certain amount of calories and worked out they'd be in better shape.

I think you took that out of context. What they mean is that processed foods in grocery stores are affordable for everyone, while organic foods & healthier foods are out of many people's price ranges, especially if they have more mouths to feed. This is one reason why I have started trying to fast somewhat frequently. It builds self control, supports weight loss, & is easy on your pockets.

@@cecemeadows8117 Yes. Processed foods are more affordable. But statistically, often people who overeat are the ones buying processed food, ready meals and frequent fast food. To some extend it's a cultural/habitual thing. I often see kids getting chicken and chips for £5-6/portion after school, rather than having a fresh meal cooked for the same money OR sometimes they eat it as a pre-dinner/unnecessarily extra meal. Often, moms who claim they can't afford healthy food don't miss a manicure or hair appointment. Get the priorities right. Get cooking. Eat less. Move.

Cooking food is processing it.​@@headlesschicken99

@@eclecticism3086 Eating food and digesting it is also processing but we're not talking about chyme here too, are we? Surely, we can agree what processed food we're talking about. Some questionable mash with zero traces of meat that ends up being called nuggets or hotdogs is very far away from steaming broccoli or grilling a steak at home.

25. % of people getting that surgery become obese again within 2 years.

I was wondering if this was the guy from my 600 pound life

This is after the show not before.

Lost it all? How does a man weigh 0 pounds?

I know!! I just found his RU-vid channel. I think he had surgery (for excess skin) in April and is recovering

@@MyMomSaysImKeenAll the EXCESS weight!

Taking time out to cook can be quite the pain, but there are ways to work around it. Prepping meals for the week on a day off is an option. Crock Pots, Instant Pots, and Air Fryers can be quite helpful as well. With an air fryer, I can prepare a piece of chicken or salmon in 20 minutes or less, while the meat is cooking, I prepare my side dishes. Although the word fryer is in the name, you're not actually frying anything either. I just put a little healthy oil, like avocado oil, on the meat to help the seasoning stick, and most of the excess fat on the meat cooks off. Cooking was far more tedious for me before I got an air fryer, I've only used my oven maybe ten times in three years since I started using it. When I got rid of the extra 40 pounds I was carrying, I focused on cutting out my soda/juice consumption, and smaller portions. I trained myself to eat slower so I wouldn't eat until full, just satisfied. I didn't exercise due to chronic pain issues, but got plenty of walking in at work. Good luck losing the weight. You can do this.

I accidentally fixed it by going organic. No more food cravings. In 2 weeks pain, inflammation and cravings were gone. Down from 170 to 115 without trying. Just eat real food without the chemicals

All serious problems are serious problems.

Just say no. It is all voluntary and life choices.

It not a food addiction it's a sugar and carb addiction we teach children

@@zekebrooklyn5789 We had sugar and cardbs pre 1980s too. We didn't have the addictive chemicals until we loosened our food standards. I can eat sugar and carbs as long as they are organic

I think many people don’t know how and groceries in the states are much more expensive than fast food. It is a strange place

​@@NitzpitzYeah but they've got microwave in bag frozen veggies that are cheap, and it doesn't take a culinary genius to throw in a tablespoon of olive oil and powdered seasonings like salt, pepper, garlic powder, Italian herbs, etc. to make it taste good, have with baked chicken cutlets lightly coated in oil (I use oil or butter spray and garlic powder instead of peeling garlic because I'm lazy af), 1 serving of pasta, 1 serving pasta sauce, 1 Oz cheese, measured on a $10 digital food scale with an auto tare function, at least half the plate being veg. There are other improvised lazy quick easy healthy meals. The point is that even lazy healthy chicken and veg doesn't have to be tasteless boring garbage. There are thousands upon thousands of simple video recipes if you don't want to read through elaborate recipes with exotic ingredients. Microwave potato with Greek yogurt, bacon bits, 1 Oz cheese, 3 Oz baked chicken or 1 serving canned chili, and a bit pile of roasted or sauteed or flavors steam in bag veggies is another good quick, easy, cheap healthy, tasty meals. And you can still have burgers, just skip the fries and soda. I have disabilities limiting my ability to stand a long time sautéing or chopping things, and yeah it's harder when you're limited and in pain, but there are workarounds. Not everyone finds the workarounds quickly, but I have no time for defeatist attitudes that none of it is in your control. I didn't know about practical methods for healthy eating until the Internet went big, I was overweight until I moved out and chose my own food based on that info. Seek out the information and keep trying.

for real, cooking isn't hard. If you want you can do it you can look for recipies and buy items online to make more easy. Blame the food is easy part

​@@isaiahoreweme6625*You definitely need to have a motivator* I didn't know if it would work for the diabetes but I watched a lot of videos and read comments about people's experiences and decided to at least try it.

For me it was learning that you can go blind and/or end up on kidney dialysis (I already knew you could lose toes / limbs). My husband ended up on peritoneal dialysis after he contracted Wegeners Granulomatosis. We checked out about both types of dialysis and he decided on PD. Both forms of dialysis impact your life in a big way.

@@davisholman8149 Thank you. You do need to have a strong motivation to do it. After being diagnosed with diabetes I learned that you can go blind and/or end up on dialysis. That scared me into trying low carb (after watching lots of videos and reading viewer comments about how it had worked for them). The diet didn't seem "wrong". I've now been low carb for over 2.5 years because I feel so much better on it than eating the way I had been. After a few weeks I stopped craving the carbs.

also had 20 kg to loose. managed to loose 10 kg with low carb diet and now am stuck with those 12 kg. cant excercise bc of knee and auto immune disease and am about to start some calistenia routine and see if can start loosing some more kg.

And there was too much enabling of obese people in this video.

Some weight issues is not about eating. I know a woman with a thyroid condition and it causes her to be bigger than she used to be.

Obese people are unlikely to "change their lifestyle" because they're usually at the lower socio-economic end of society (and we know it costs a lot less to eat badly), and are also more likely to suffer mental illness. Lack of empathy and low intelligence is also out of control.

Healthy food is boring It's better for you that's true but it's no fun Healthy doesn't taste all that great You can mix little bit of junk with Healthy

@@marycooper8385 People just don't know how to make delicious healthy food. If you have been eating over-salted food all your life, richly covered with artificial ketchup and synthetic mayonnaise, finished with a sugary dessert on top of drinking sugar water with a teaspoon of coffee and a heaping dose of artificial "whipped cream", then it is difficult to feel the natural taste of vegetables or simply grilled good quality meat or fish, feel the smell and taste of herbs or freshly ground and brewed coffee.

i second this .. 58 yrs old .. type II ridiculous HbA1C ....... dropped from 105kg to about 82 kg now over 5 months with no extra exercise ... has been life changing .. love me pork belly n eggs in the pan with butter :) BTW all of the other benefits like skin problems, ear wax, fluid retention, sore feet, brainfog etc etc allll gone ..no metofrmin .. no diaformin .. no insulin .... :) very happy :))

We've grown up demonizing dietary fat when it was the sugar killing us. I've been doing the carnivore diet for about a year and it was the best decision of my life. Lost 50 lbs without much effort at all. Now I'm in good shape and about a dozen health issues are simply gone.

That sums up man’s current downfall succinctly

Addiction is the plan. They changed what could go into our food system in the 80s. More addictive now. It leads to using more pharmaceuticals too. I ditched the food cravings in 2 weeks after switching to organic food.

She had the surgery I had so long ago... and for cutting her stomach only lost 70 pounds in 2 years. I hit that in 4 months. It's a lie. And the surgery ruined my life and nearly killed me 20 years later.

​@@LovingxLyriqxNxDeSeothat type of surgery is terrible. Lot's of people regain weight anyway. Many end up eating small quantities but many times per day. Snaking repeatedly causes a constant production of insulin by the pancreas. The surest way to get or aggravate diabetes. Surgeons know that but only their I come counts.

@Cervin_Suisse it absolutely is. And bc ppl don't realize the commitment they r making is until the day they die, they will never understand what cutting this vital organ is going to do to them later in life.

Yep this.

I eat 3 meals a day with healthy snacks. I've never had a weight problem. A major part of the problem is what you eat and the quantity. I eat no fast food no processed food, nothing friend and if there's ingredients I can't pronounce it stays on the shelf.

It's carb/sugar overload and dependence ... you become compelled to eat every few hours. My partner gets the shakes if she misses a meal. Eliminating most carbs you can achieve OMAD, without the side effects.

@@magnessskippton2509 never had that problem. Just got home from work after 5pm. Didn't eat a thing all day. Because it is hot out I'm doing desert first- chocolate ice cream. Then after I cool down I will have either peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or a bowl of Mac and cheese. Then I call it a night. This is a typical food intake for me every single day. I don't worry about sugar or carbs and sadly alot of my dinners are not healthy. I rarely eat vegetables.

Eating one time a day is not healthy either, it will slow your metabolism, and make it hard to lose fat, you just need to pick real food and control the portions.

*Yes!*

"Why do we crave salt?" umm because it's essential for life!

Amazingly, you can have more than one problem and problems can have more than one cause.

Sodium is a problem if you have high blood pressure. It may taste good but too much of it is a problem.😊

Carbs are not the problem either.

First 2 mins in i hear the guy saying theres no healthy restaurants & i thought are we forgetting the grocery stores exist

@@AllainaTellis Exactly. Ultimately it is down to bone idleness.

@@drubber007 😅 sad but true

but America has way more of Fast Food Options and more Sugar Products in the Grocery Store selection than other countrys. And when people dont have much money they def dont buy fruits & vegtables.

@@vtkzthank you

Yeah, something to think about. And while the manufacturer/seller has some responsibility, I'd take responsibility for myself and my health, especially as healthy options are available. I've gone without food, skipped meals, when there was no healthy option. I won't eat poison just because it's the only option.

Spot on.

Glad to hear about your success! Out of curiosity, do you do intermittent fasting in addition to your carnivore diet?

I dont eat meat

Wow, what a boring, one-sided diet to have... For someone like me, who can't stand red meat and is cautious about fish that's either full of antibiotics if it's cultivated, or micro-plastics or mercury if it's wild caught, that kind of diet would be absolutely not sustainable for me. Also, there's a ton of health benefits from complex carbs like whole grains, legumes and lentils that I just cannot do without. A restrictive diet may be quiet nice while you're healing if you had a very bad one before. But it's definitely not an ultimate long-term solution, since we as omnivores - not carnivores or frugivores or whichever bull💩 term ppl come up with nowadays - thrive only on diverse diet that consists of plants AND animal proteins, because that's how we get all the nutrients, minerals and vitamins we need. The only things we have to watch is the amounts we consume and those foods being processed as little as possible. Home cooked meals that contain no additives or other harmful ingredients are the healthiest option. Other than that there's no need for restrictions that do more harm than good in the long run.

Carnivore is amazing! It's not boring as some might claim. I have zero desire to eat the processed junk I used to. I'd much rather feel good, not be in pain from my autoimmune disease, not have digestive issues and be able to play with my toddlers. There's nothing boring about actually living life.

@@angbaby56I’m the same. I’ve been carnivore for 60 days lost 6kg. Reduced two of my meds, 3 to go. I feel amazing. I sleep so much better and I have energy all day. I’m not bored at all. I eat two meals a day and I have no cravings for carbs, sugar, veggies or any processed foods. Carnivore is my lifestyle.

It's over-eating that's causing obesity

They too but ultimately the eater is to blame for his / her own actions.

@@rempseaheinamies9414 Is an alcoholic to blame? Partially yes, but we know it's much more complex and it's an illness too. Do we require the alcohol industry to be regulated to limit their ability to exploit the most vulnerable, like children for example? Yes we do. Food is different from alcohol or cigarettes, because we cannot live without it, so selling something that's pretending to be food but is really harmful to you, that should be treated as a very serious crime.

@@frusia123 Absolutely. Same kind of completely volunteer and excess binging. Not an illness either, totally voluntary choice. Sure, all companies that push this toxic junk called fast food should face the music but they are not forcing anyone to eat it. Eater bears all the choices here and also ultimate responsibility to their bodies. They certainly can't say that they didn't know it was unhealthy.

Or deregulated 😅. Their "regulations" are killing ppl.

first the people who CHOOSE to eat that junk need to regulate themselves. No one is forcing anyone to eat it or shoving it down their throats.Saying NO is actually a choice.

I'm sincerely glad for you. Well done for taking matters into your own hands and doing something about it.

You are doing great- good for you!

Did you take care of the thyroid problem?

@@naturalnashuan Yes, but when I started the medication it did very little when it came to weight loss. Low carb was the only solution.

No, they will still drink mad Pepsi's all day, and order takeout while living in a nursing home, and complaining that the nurse didn't give them their Metformin on time, and the cafeteria was supposed to give them a double serving.
