Oprah Falls For Fitfluencer CICO Nonsense | What the Fitness | Biolayne 

It's always funny to me how many of the Ozempic peddlers will say, "Calories In Calories Out doesn't work/matter." But they don't even realize that the entire way Ozempic works is by reducing appetite so "Calories In" goes down.

"Even Oprah falls for the influencer bullshit"? Dude, she's the OG bullshit peddler.

You get a carbon! You get a carbon! Everybody gets a carbon!

EVEN Oprah? Like she’s never spread misinformation before. 😂

What she should have said is, "CICO is indisputable science, however this knowledge isn't solving the obesity epidemic."

I fuckin love angry Layne. This is gold.

Funniest Dr. Layne video ever - the movie clips with his face in them, and the Jack Nicholson clip with Dr. Layne's voice... 😂😂😂

It sucks to not be able to loose weight easily (less appetite control, less NEAT, etc). But honestly all those people saying that it's not within my control and that I should just give up are making me more depressed. Thanks for giving me some feeling of agency back Layne!

Hey Layne, I'm frustrated also as you are. I'm surrounded by people at work who are obese and eat more calories before 9 am than I eat all day. "I've a bone spur. I'll start exercising after I get special shoes I can't afford now", "it's just one sweet roll, then one cookie, then one latte" "It's the holidays, I'll start my diet when it's over, labor day- Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, new Year's, Valentine's Day, Easter, 4th of July, birthdays bad days on and on" " What's wrong, my essential oils ain't working, I need detox,,,,,,,,,on and on and on,,,,,"

How did Oprah get to 70, particularly speaking to all the health people, etc, that she has, and still be unfamiliar with the word 'adipose'?!

I love how Layne transforms into Greg Doucette when he is angry😂 But it's true anyway, keep up the good work!

No surprise...she promoted Dr. Oz...we know how honest he was!

the problem with CICO is that it's hard to sell books and be an influencer advising people to eat less and exercise more.

One of the best speeches I've heard recently, I've been shouting this in my clinic for 25 years, people can't understand what doesn't serve their addictions, so they prefer to be a victim until the pain is greater than the reward.. or until death

I love Layne's calmness and self control. It's relaxing 😂😂😂😂

The reason America has an obesity problem is because everyone keeps telling us it’s not calories in calories out.

I pulled out the thermodynamics point when my wife argued this point the other night. She had no response. Also, what a garbage idea. So what then, your behavior doesn't matter at all? If you're fat you're just a victim?

Huge respect to you Layne !! You have absolutely transformed my understanding and put me on firm ground. For over 2 decades I was searching for the truth and getting terribly confused with conflicting “truths” from “Dr’s” and experts. Thank you again and keep up the amazing work of truth !

That’s by far the most passionate video Layne has ever posted on WTFitness

These influencers are exhausting and detrimental to the mental health of those who struggle with their image. Really sad.

The rocket part was amazing, I'm launghing even thinking about it 🤣

All I heard was George Costanza yelling IT'S ALL PIPES! 🤣

This might be my new favorite video by Dr. Norton! Keep up the great work!

Great video. As someone who isn't overweight, I find it incredibly annoying that people just assume I am naturally like this when I actually actively balance my calories in with calories out.

Channeling coach Greg energy, harder than last time! Love it ❤

Loved every minute of this video and how Layne got more and more passionate as it went on hahahaha

Thanks Layne. I’ve lost 2 pounds in 2 weeks using your Carbon app. Now I get why it’s called Carbon hah. Got me some scales and been weighing all my food. You get used to it after a while. It’s like what you said, some foods a super satiating yet low calorie, while other meals are not that satiating at all yet super calorie dense. I understood the concept before but the process of actually weighing my food has been a real eye opener.

We need to have discussions on fueling our car and how it runs. It's not gasoline in gasoline out.

i follow u bcuz u challemge the health podcasters i like... this was definitely my favorite video!

😂😂😂 Dude, your best rant ever! Had tears rolling down my face. Brilliant information as always 👍🏼

This is one of the best videos Layne has ever done

Take a shot every time that woman says "conversation"...

I couldn't love you more!❤ your dedication to science is so bloody honorable.

I love this!!! I think so many people get confused with all the influencers out there - it seems that everything you do these days is wrong. Let’s just go back to the basics!!!! Thanks for making this video!!!!

I hate when “experts” spread false information. Super dangerous.

Midway through Layne's ranting, I expected his voice to go even higher and higher in pitch until his face turns beet red and then when he gets to the point his head explodes lol.

I think there's a misunderstanding around the statement of people eating whatever they want without getting fat. It's not that they can eat anything wihtout getting fat. It's that they can eat anything they WANT without getting fat. My girlfriend eat absolutely whatever she wants and she is 125 pounds for 5ft4 (approx 23% body fat). The thing is, what she want is around 2000 calories a day, after that she is force feeding herself. No she could not eat 4000 calories/day and not gain weight, but she can in fact eat what she WANTS and not get fat. She puts is absolutely no effort, her body is just intelligent enough to tell her to stop when she's not hungry anymore. On my side, even at 2800 calories (my maintenance) I'm starving. I'm comfortable at around 4000 calories. Even after years of eating healthy and maintaining my lost weight, it's still a struggle every day, while my girlfriend has visible abs without any effort. CICO is absolutely real for everyone, but appetite vastly differs.

One of the best episodes right here. It really sucks when people make it more complicated than it is. I love the part about it disempowering people. So true. It's hard, it takes discipline, detracting from that doesn't help.

I felt like I was in a fiery church service! Preach it brother! Lol

“Human randomized control trials!” As you ride a bomb into sky 😂😂🤣🤣

Thank you for caring about us. As an obese woman who is diligently trying her hardest to be healthy, the last thing I need to hear is I have no control and the only way to reach a healthy weight is through drugs or something else. I appreciate this. I feel like a narrative is being pushed to push drugs and I don’t like it.

You are THE breath of fresh air. True story & thank you.

Thanks Layne for your videos, keep speaking the truth!

I enjoyed this rant very much 🙂

The video editor was cooking today 😂

Great video! Thanks you very much!

I felt like i was watching Greg Doucette - i loved it. Yell at us more often please.

Thank you 😊 🙏 💓. 100% Whole Food Plant Based eater here, and I have had to tell people the exact same thing as you. Just found you from Rich Rolls podcast.

The most unhinged and explosive Layne I've ever seen😮😅 Dropping the biohammer like no one else could! 👊

My lasting memory of Oprah was her fully believing “the secret”. Utter stupidity.

excellent video, Dr. Norton.

I completely agree with everything you said. As someone who has experimented with various diets and now strictly focuses on calories in/out, I find the most challenging aspect, which I believe many others also struggle with, is accurately determining my basal metabolic rate (BMR). In my case, I tended to exaggerate my level of fitness and activity, leading me to overestimate my calorie needs and subsequently overeat. Although it wasn't a significant overestimation, it still hindered my progress in losing body fat as effectively as I desired. This misinformed mindset about our true energy needs is, I believe, a major obstacle for many people, including myself, in achieving our weight loss goals.

Im five foot seven 170 pounds. I literally eat like a horse. Snack all day. Carbs galore and gain no weight. It’s embarrassing how much food I can put away while my family stares in disbelief. Due to my work my annual average is over 20,000 steps a day. I’m a two legged furnace. KEEP MOVING!

This is GOLD

😂 you ok there Layne... I think we heard you over here in England without the microphone..

These rants will NEVER get boring. Get 'em Layne!!!

Hi Layne! Great video again, happy that there is someone who actually shows and tells the truth as it is. Wondering wether you can comment on the video from Zoe - Everything you thought you knew about protein is wrong with Stanford’s professor Christopher Gardner. It seems there could be interesting comments on it.

LMFAO 🤣 All your stuff is great but this made me fall over laughing man!! Best content out there brother! Keep it up, thank you!

👏👏👏👏👏👏 This Man has major substance! I adore his passion.

I assume you'll get a lot of negativity. But Layne, listen, bc u won't back down and keep sharing what is true, you have saved me from the psycho up and down lifestyle I always lived....I always go back to it's purely cico and when I'm feeling outta control I go back to this. I stop feeling crazy and remind myself I'm ok with my results bc I just want to eat more than I want to be leaner. Truth sets us free!! Don't lose ur balls Layne. Keep at it bc there's ppl that do want truth and not empathy

That was an amazing impersonation of Gonzo from Sesame Street. Love it! 😂 Please More Gonzo destroying feelings with facts!!!

You should go on Oprah, and set her and her audience straight!

Yes it is!!!! You are so right Dr. Norton. This drives me nuts.

Sad thing is this PHD probably knows that calories matter, but she knows being on Oprah is good for her pocketbook so she just says what the audience wants to hear

I would love to see a discussion on this topic with Layne Norton on a panel with Dr Anthony Chaffee and Dr Robert Lustig and Dr Ken Berry

OMG THE ROCKET LAUNCH 😂😂😂😂 we will need that in the future at some point at this rate lol

Excellent once again!!👍👍

Thanks again Layne. i saw Oprah on CNN, and the first thing i thought was, "Human randomize control trial,s" and was expecting youb would knock this one out, as you did well. thanks again, you're my hero.

I enjoyed your rage sir...

Fantastic! In this time of non-stop nutritional claims on the internet, we need Layne more than ever. Love the yelling-it acts like seasoning to a dish of food.

I thought it would be a good idea to watch this at 1.5x speed. Feared for my life when Layne went on his rant 🤣🤣🤣

Interestingly, they mentioned she was a consultant on The Whale. I watched most of that movie, and I noticed the main character's best friend was enabling them by getting them highly dense caloric foods. So I don't know what to say.

🙌🏻 thanks for delivering such helpful facts/science in a pretty hilarious and entertaining way. You’re kicking a$$ with your content!

This was the best part of my Friday 😂

I turned on NPR this afternoon and the show Here & Now was promoting Paul Saladino. Why would they give this guy any air time at all?

Great Video! Thank you 🔥👏💪🫶

CICO is a manifestation of the laws of thermodynamics, specifically the conservation laws in the context of chemical bonds. We are living in 2024 and some people still can’t grasp CICO! At first I used to think, it’s because of lack of science literacy in physics, but what I realized later is that a sizable chunk of my physics friends themselves don’t think CICO works (They use the ‘It doesn’t always work’ argument). This is disgusting considering the fact that a few of them come from Theoretical physics background and they are also doing “Research”. The real question is not if CICO works or not, but how one can design their diets in order to make the process of creating Caloric deficit/surplus easy and manageable.

Layne, you're the best. And yes, many obese people do have an emotional component to eating due to trauma.

Wow! I did not know that about sexual assault trauma and weight in women! Have you ever done a video on that?

I get very angry too when people say "it's not calories - calories out".

Layne is fired up and I love it!

Such a calm and peaceful video

Is Layne trying the Greg Doucette model of doing videos? 😂

A friend of mine ate crap and was stick thin / lean, two things I noticed about him, he had good muscle tone and when he ate his crappy foods, his appetite rapidly went to zero. This person was gifted good genetics for muscle mass, to keep his metabolism high and act as a store for glucose and also had a very sensitive gut / brain hunger axis. He obeyed the laws of thermodynamics, the reason for his leaness was him subconsciously obeying the law of thermodynamics better than most people, via genetic factors linked to energy sensing / appetite control. If technology allowed for an accurate, instant readout of how many calories we have absorbed versus how many we have used for metabolic process, only the very stupid or mentally unstable would become morbidly obese, but as we have no easy way of knowing our energy balance on a hourly / daily basis, many of us tend to gain weight, as it's easy to gain, but harder to lose.

❤❤❤❤❤🥳🥳🥳🙌🙌🙌Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Can you please keep harping on this point!? 😀

4:47 I lost it 💀HRCT!!!!!!!!!

You started yelling. I started crying laughing. 🤣❤

Dropping a like rarely feels so good! 😂 Love the rage and the editing! Explosion HRCT 💥 and You can't handle the truth 🎖️were incredible! Oh yeah, and of course the facts are strong with Layne, but that's completely unsurprising 😅.

"THE LAWS OF THERMODYNAMICS," said Layne, calmly.

Had this discussion today when a lady told me that she eats late at night so she won’t lose weight (she been sick). I had to remind her that her gut doesn’t have a clock.

This had me laughing out loud!! You are so funny Layne! I loved your passion. So funny! And so true.

Light em' up Dr. Norton!!!

One of your best. I’ve laughed so hard 😂😂😂

I think part of the problem is that people (like the woman in the video) confuse the principle of CICO with calorie counting. Yes, calorie counting won’t work for some people. That doesn’t mean that CICO isn’t still in effect.

The Lord of the Rings and Yoda bit..😂😂😂💀

Epic rant. I am going to play this whenever something has me agitated.

Let me see if I got this right. They're saying CICO doesn't work. They're saying ozempic does. Ozempic works by lowering hunger, therefore you eat less calories. That argument is as dissonant as my dad talking to me about hygiene.

These videos are gold.

Why are we surprised? This can be a very attractive argument to someone who has struggled with weight and body image their entire public life. There’s also a lot of money in this view. All these people are doing is creating content geared largely towards women looking for a group therapy session.

So glad we have a real expert in this field that follows the actual real data available today! 👍👍👍👍 🧡
