My husband was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and high BP. We follow a 50/50 rule. 50 percent veggies on every plate, and 50 percent lean meats or alternate protein. His doctor is proud of him, and thinks he will reverse the diagnosis in the year. We do occasional treats but in small portions. The treat last night was a few tortilla chips and salsa. It is hard, but without support I think it would be impossible.
How can his doctor reverse the diagnosis? Diabetes type 2 is for life. It will never go away. It can only be halted, which is not enough to reverse a diagnosis.
To be more exact: We talk of remission and not a cure because it isn't permanent. The beta cells have been damaged and the underlying genetic factors contributing to the person's susceptibility to diabetes remain intact. Over time the disease process reasserts itself and continued destruction of the beta cells ensues.
Oats are one of the most powerful LDL cholesterol lowering foods and cinnamon is a great blood sugar lowering supplement. Casia cinnamon works (sweeter) but real cinnamon (smells spicier) works best. Avocado is also a great blood sugar lowerer. Regular exercise is good. Watch the blood pressure regularly too and if you detect any strange signs; dizzy or chest pains etc, then get a scan. God Bless
@@Scorpy666 i think that’s what she meant. If it’s regulated right, you can control it in a way there’s little to no symptoms. But no, it never actually goes away.
Somebody that brings a ton of unhealthy food in front of you when they know you're struggling is equivalent of someone having a drug problem then your "friend" brings and does that drug around you. That person isn't your friend.
The same way I don't offer friends who don't drink an alcoholic beverage or someone who is lactose intolerant something with dairy. I care about my friends so if I know they can't have or prefer not to have something I try to make sure there is something they can have instead.
I think ur wrong when I stopped my vices my friends offered and did it around me all the time. I didn't care just because I have to stop don't mean I have to kill the party around me. She could all types of donuts in the house it's not up to her sister to stop her life for her. She needs will power and she wouldn't even look at it. Your not a good friend by making everyone stop what they want to do cause u have a addiction, it's selfish in reality. And I'm glad they offered instead of hiding it around me that's a real friend. I just had the will power to say no and they respected it every time.
@@blingmaster1049 I was a cokehead for 8 years so it wouldn't be terrible of people to bring it and be snorting lines around me and pushing me to do a bump when they know how hard it messed me up and I was getting help and recovering?
BUT it's a donut! By law, if a donut is in front of you, you HAVE to eat it. Everyone knows this. You can't just not eat a donut, the police are gonna come busting through the door if you try.
I mean, a glazed chocolate donut is about 350. She could eat it but she just has to stay within her goal of 1500. And also not top herself up just within the first meal of the day!!! Her sister brought over what looks like an entire dozen and when she says no acts like she can't ever eat another donut again.
At least no one has to wonder about the family dynamic on this one. It's not a deep dive🤣🤣🤣. A good counselor would read this family in about 30 seconds.
"that's what it is, she's hungry!" no, she's just upset that you're a bad influence on her and don't have the decency to support her decisions during this pinnacle turning point of her life even though she's always there for you. But yeah, eat your donuts...
@@emberdt7998 she gets to identify as "the skinny one" in the group compared to "the big girls" and that seems about the extent of the depth she's developed
well to be fair, she is right tbh..........if you eat "healthy", your body will naturallt shed the weight to where it should be *cut the processed crap *cut the very unhealthy stuff out (junk food) *ect if you basically eat as "organic" as you can, you shouldnt have any issues losing weight...........the thing is if like let's say 80-90% of the time or something you eat "healthy", there's no reason you cant eat idk a doughnut or 2 or something on the side every once in a while ------------------------- *Meanwhile, something like McDonald's every once in a while is still super unhealthy (processed to the max + super unhealthy ingredients - shouldnt every basically eat stuff like that) *same with pop (pop is a better toilet cleaner than most cleaning products on the market..........imagine what that does to your insides?) ------------------------ so yea, i agree with what she says where she should eat doughnuts sometimes (esp if she is being grouchy all the time because she's is craving something)..........but i also get where she's coming from not wanting to eat it at all (but that's the #1 worst ***WRONG***** advice from most diets that ends up making people quit because they get to a point where they're either so hungry they cant take it anymore, or so miserable eating stuff they dont like)
@@ilhanrasljanin7196 As a housekeeper, let me say, soda is NOT a toilet cleaner. It's acidic, so you pour it inside the bowl and it eats the sediment and waste left on the bottom of the toilet...but it does not disinfect, clean, or kill any bacteria. You would certainly never spray it on the seat or anything. If you just use the toilet brush in the bowl every once in a while, you'd never actually need to pour soda in it.
Imagine, someone you are supposed to love and care for is trying to quit smoking. They have emphysema and will die if they do not stop. So you invite them over, and make sure to have a table full of cigarettes, cigars, ashtrays, etc waiting for them. When they rightfully express concern, you reply “i just want you to be happy”
“You’re never going to stop eating donuts” 😧 She could have a donut once in a blue moon, it’s about moderation, but her sister literally put in front of her a full plate of donuts. Your sister is killing herself with food and you’re pushing a bakers dozen, sick
Yeah I’m never giving up doughnuts for life I get a free dozen this month for my birthday at Krispy Kreme so when my nieces comes back next week and my brother and sister in law we will get them it’s a free dozen glazed
@@Super_Grover_ bahaha! Thank you! For the life of me I couldn't figure out what it was that bothered me when I looked at her other than her c***** personality! That's exactly what she looks like!
I feel like the sister is trying to keep the people around them more focused on the eating addiction so she can hide in the shadows with whatever addiction she's dealing with herself.
As someone who's lived in a town full of them, and has worked in a nursing home/rehab, I can tell you she has some low level Meth Face. So I think you're right.
I'm fairly certain the skinny one is on drugs. Not due to her weight (although I know quite personally that drugs can drastically reduce your weight, even dank when used heavily for prolonged periods of time), but due to her behavior, cluelessness, and the specific ways that she pushes her ideas without any substantive reason to do so
I’m not an expert but I have worked in healthcare for over a decade and it seems like an abuse of prescription pills specifically opiates. Just the mannerisms and thought processes.
Fun fact in the 90s in Canada when I was in grade school the food pyramid we where taught in class and on TV was sponsored by the Dairy Farmers of Canada as as such had a higher amount of dairy products on it with a big emphasis on cows milk. Because they paid for it to be there lol, so you are right about it changing and not trusting it.
@@missyfunk3098 FINALLY SOME ONE MENTIONED IT. I was looking through the comments hopeful that someone would mention that the dairy industry pushed itself on to us. There is NO health benefits of (animal) milk. The industry lobbied the government, and spread fake information for YEARS until it became "You HAVE TO drink milk." They even push it on to infants. SO many people in the USA force their 1 year old to drink cows milk because "They have to JUST drink milk at 1!".
Tammy just came out and said they ARE working on season 4 as of June this year ! She said that the new season should be out next year ,she also said she wasn't supposed to talk about it but since she wasn't telling any "secrets" about the show she didn't see why she couldn't at least let her fans know there WILL BE A SEASON 4 . I'm so excited !!!
What's amazing is that she thinks that she has fans when in reality we all watch to see her fail because she's a food addict who doesn't want to help herself.
“Fans”? “Excited”??? whet lol she has FANS? People get EXCITED over that show? Lol I wish I was the type of person to like such mindless, awful things lol. My life would be so eeeee-z
Like imagine if she was an Alcoholic, and the sister brought like everclear, vodka, and like Hennessey and saying "here you're so angry when you're sober"
I started watching 90 Day Fiancé because of Ken and Dane. Felt like I needed more of that particular insanity in my life. Things were surprisingly wholesome in the earlier seasons, but I'm still enjoying it
Greek yogurt is a really good alternative to sour cream for alot of things. Especially when you make a dip. I use Greek yogurt, brown gravy mix, and dehydrated onions to make a mock french onion dip for things that's a tiny bit healthier than regular dip. It tastes a bit richer in my opinion. I use the 2% Fage greek yogurt as I like that brand the best.
I dunno if greek yoghurt is different in the USA but where I live it tastes different and has a different consistency as well. To compare.. Greek yoghurt here tastes slightly sweet and the consistency is super thick yet creamy while on the other hand sour cream is way lighter,has a watery substance along with it and tastes slightly bitter but almost neutral. In terms of similarity in taste it's worlds apart unless you only use it for mixing it in a sauce or something. Because of that the greek yoghurt talk in the video really confused me xD
@@jos-josradvanji6203 I think our sour cream may be different than your sour cream then. Sour cream taste and consistency here does depend on the brand but as alot of things in the USA it's a bit sweeter and can be a bit thicker. I know when I had sour cream in Canada as a kid/teen it was quite a bit different than what I was used to at home.
@@shaydawn7376 Its really good plus you can adjust it to your own taste so if you like it a bit more mild or stronger you can get it exactly how you want it. You can even add onion or garlic powder for an added flavor boost if you want. Or another way is to use the brown gravy mix and some dehydrated vegetables for like soup mixes. You have to let it set for about an hour that way the veggies get a bit softer but it's another good dip. You could also rehydrate the dried veggie mix in a few tablespoons of hot water for a few minutes then drain and add to the mix too if yours have some harder things like peas or corn.
I'm not a huge fan of the Greek yoghurt, the Turkish is alright, and I don't think I've tried the Russian yoghurt more than once. Maybe it's a thing here (live in Sweden), they are from the same company, Salakis, so I don't know if those are available in the US. But a small amount of agave honey with either of those three, such a good snack, especially on a hot day. And I hate honey normally 🤣
I think “free-range eggs” are deceiving because the chickens are allowed to wander freely…in huge, extremely cramped sheds. Some sheds have no access to sunlight etc. It’s only a step above fully caged hens. Pastured / pasture-raised eggs are what you want. The more local and fresh, the better 🥚
I remember that nutrition stuff happening with Apples in particular. At first they were healthy because they are fruits, then they are unhealthy because we find out it's loaded with sugar, then they are healthy again because we learn the difference between bad and good sugars...it's crazy
I really hate seeing people taunt people who are trying to do better for themselves. And using "I want you to be happy" as a way to pressure them to eat. It's so frustrating.
I know this is really random but I’ve been watching you guys for a bit over 6 months now and I have to say I have anxiety here and there like everyone else. I get overwhelmed sometimes like the rest of the world. Although in my free time I’ll throw on a TH-cam video and whenever you guys upload a new video I’m subscribed so I see recent videos in my feed, I watch just to zone out and with that being said you guys never fail to make me smile with your commentary. Thank you for these videos and I hope who’s reading has a beautifully blessed day ❤️
Back atcha sweetie. Dane and Ken cut through my anxiety like a hot knife through butter. Something about genuine unabated laughter just sets my day on the right course.
The feeder sister made one point: you can't say no to donuts forever. As a recovering binge eater myself, saying "I'll never eat (insert food)" causes obsessive cravings. A balanced way to include all foods might look like: put the donut on a plate with some strawberries and plain Greek yogurt (protein + fiber+ food you might binge = living with no off limits food)
Exactly ... i learned that during my diet. If i eat a cookie, chocolate bar or donut here and there makes it easier to not overeat on them if i always say no. Dieting is still mostly psychological ! Now almost 2 years in, i still have good disciplined weeks and also bad weeks. but i taught myself to not fixate on a monthly goal anymore. The only rule is to not gain any except muscle mass. I lost a 110lbs so far, but still have 80lbs to go.
A better option is to find or make healthier alternatives to the junk food items. The obsessive cravings are there because you continue to have the item that you created well worn paths in your brain to think about it. Once you're down out of the danger zone of morbid obesity you can start adding in some of those unhealthy items sparsely so your brain doesn't go back to addicted mode. It's really no different for your brain than any other addiction. Ppl who quit heroin can't do a little bit as part of a balanced substance diet, because it's just keeping that path established in their brain to continue to crave it. The brunette in this series is proof of this, as she already had gastric bypass but still eats junk food so she's still morbidly obese.
I'm a big stress and comfort eater, moat likely a sugar addict as well. But I've found that if I have the thing in question, let's say a chocolate bar for example, in the fridge, I can let it be there for a very long time without touching it. Kinda like it's comforting to me just to know that I have it, and I'll go and snack on tomatoes instead, compared to me having a small freak out because I don't have a chocolate bar laying in the fridge. If that makes sense.
Except in this case, the woman clearly didn't want a donut. The feeder sister was arguing with her to try to force her into eating one. It would have been different if the woman had shown any signs of even being interested in having one.
For anyone trying to lose weight, From someone who recently lost 88 pounds over 2 years, keep it up, keep a caloric defecit, keep ur motivations strong, ignore those who try to stop u and understand that weight loss will definitely upgrade ur quality of life.
That stuff about chicken treatment and egg labeling that Ken mentioned is exactly why I started raising my own hens. Totally worth it. I love my girls and they're super happy and are all great layers.
The fly was the REAL star of the show. He was there to mind control the skinny sister into buying lots of donuts and then being evil and creating a reverse psychology induced reaction that resulted in the donuts NOT being eaten so the fly had MORE TO ITSELF!
Nutrition is such a tough subject to generalize because companies just want more customers which affects even what is recommended to consumers. At the end of the day, everyone's needs are slightly different when it comes to food so relying on just calorie intake or the food pyramid isn't enough. Work on figuring out what gets you the results you want in terms of health and focus on that!
@@Scorpy666 Nutrition is about more than calories, and it is a problem in advertising. Your appearance in the mirror won't tell anyone if all nutritional needs are being met for vitamins and minerals except in more severe cases. This is why doctor's order blood tests instead of just looking at their patients. Calories are an aspect of nutrition, not the whole of it. The commercials mentioned in the video are a good example of this problem of advertising guiding nutrition.
I will say that my nutritionist said getting 30-40g of good protein a day (so not burgers and bacon) is almost a surefire way to lose weight for most people. If anyone needs some advice Edit to say that getting your vitamins and minerals is also very important if you're on a high protein diet
@@BestBES People also forget that fat is important too! It helps the body to absorb some vitamins, provides fatty acids (which the body can't make), and helps with some bodily/organ functions. Eating good fat and protein in moderation are important to nutrition and weight managment.
the compareson with drugs is such a great way to compare it the sister wants temperary and immediate happines for her but don't realize how much more damage that does on her in the long run. also i wouldn't be suprise if she herself don't eat to unhealthy she just wants her kids and sister to be happy but she does it in a destructive way. the oldest son seemed kinda up for trying to be more healthy tho hope for his sake he catches it now while its still early.
What made me mad was the woman sitting there "bein' 18 years old for a boy, a man, you don't need to be on no diet." Like, LADY!!! WHAT business is it of yours if a boy/man decides to diet to try and get healthier even if they're 18? Especially implying that they specifically don't need to be on a diet just because they're MALE!!!
@@familyof1052 my point was the lady, I'm assuming the feeder sister, made that comment when ANYONE could clearly see that the kids aren't exactly in a healthy bmi for their age. If the kid(s) want to actually diet and/or exercise it's NONE of her business and that's what made me mad.
It irritates me when I order a salad, because all I want is lettuce, dressing, and black olives. But I always get weird looks, like I'M the strange one for not wanting a loaded salad lol
I’ve heard “everything in moderation” but not the “including moderation” part!!! I LOVE that! It’s okay to go a little crazy in moderation!! Doesn’t mean you have to be 100% balanced at all times
I've replaced sour cream, mayonnaise, and the likes, with yogurt a few months ago myself and it really is a great much healthier much lower calorie replacement! Been changing foods for better alternatives, no dieting, no hunger, just more conscious eating, and have lost over 20 kilograms the past 5 months. Knowing what you shove down your throat really makes a world of difference.
Im currently dieting and this was hard to watch haha, those donuts and stuff looked amazing/ Im at the heaviest ive ever been at 242lb, my knees and back hurt, always exhausted, couldnt even imagine how these ladies feel if i feel like this at almost a third their weight lol
I am 4ft11 so really short and I am 175lb I am at my heaviest my back and knees hurt real bad I start take walk everyday for one month now and this morning that was the first time my walk seem easy on my back and knees I was really happy ! If you can and if you capable try to walk 5000 steps a day you will probably see a difference like me after a month or so !! I am with you you can do this ! Have a great weekend !
Good luck with your diet! I’m skinny, always been. I’ve recently dieted to 130 now from my highest at 160. I bet a nutritionist would give me a medal for how good my diet is now. I also have a digestive disorder that made me intolerant to gluten, eggs, nuts (I could go on forever), so I know what it’s like to restrict food groups entirely out of necessity. I don’t cheat EVER on it. It was one of the hardest things emotionally to deal with. Even with all this, eating at 1500cal on the new diet made me hungry at a VERY high frequency... All this being said, I can only imagine how hard it would be to deal with the hunger and food restrictions at the same time at a higher weight, probably getting even hungrier than I do. Have mad respect for everybody who can push through and lose the weight on a healthier lifestyle ✨💪🏻
I set an alarm for 10:00 and got upset when I had to refresh 3 times before the video popped up 😂 It’s safe to say your videos are definitely a part of my routine now
Eggs are bad for your heart, twenty years later eggs are heart healthy. Honestly, I think moderation and movement are far more important than what you eat. Clearly fruits and vegetables more important than junk food but denying something sweet you crave can make you fall off the wagon.
Read meat, salmon, sardines, shrimp, fish, eggs, raw goat milk kefir and some fruit + greens are the only way I function properly. Grains, beans, legumes, seeds, nuts etc mess me up and cause crazy weight gain. Many vegetables are also harmful to me. When I stick to a low lectin, low histamine, limited ingredient diet free from my allergenic foods, I lost weight. Nothing else works for me.
When I start cheating it can become a slippery slope, especially if something bad happened in my life, or when I’m depressed. I like enjoying standard american foods that I grew up with, but I have to be SO mindful. When I’m “messing up” my diet I am still eating WAY more healthy than most Americans. It’s crazy. I think weight gain is a genetic problem in my family, too. We are way too efficient at getting fat 😂 Walking, strength training, hiking and swimming also help big time. When I’m injured and can’t work out, everything goes haywire. 15-20lb weight gain, easy.
I'll slam back a family size bag of butter fingers. But i also run 3 miles and exercise 4 to 5 times a week. It only just dawned on my i eat like... a disgusting amount of candy... however I stay so damn active im probably just burning it the minute i go back to daily activities.
I love watching you guys bruh, never fails to make me laugh. Went thru some rough patches yet everytime I watched these vids it no longer felt as if I was alone. You guys the best!
We do it occasionally when we’ve had a long day because it’s a quick meal. It can be healthier if you stick with whole grains and use fresh fruit instead of syrup.
Oh. My. God. I can relate to this in the most disturbing way. Literally the way that the woman who wants to diet tried to explain it like being a drug addiction. I literally looked to my sister after being sober for over two years, asked her if she would be mad at me if I did anything, and she told me no. And I went INSANE back to 6 feet under. She's an alcoholic in denial, so she had alcohol in my face all of the time. She smoked weed all of the time in my face, knowing I was in a treatment program. I'm not saying I couldn't have walked away, and I did a few times, but I couldn't prevent her from following me. And a lot of that time, I was living WITH her. Then there would be the family getting ahold of me with the excuses for her and damning me for trying to stay away . . . Addiction is no joke. And her sister is absolutely not being a support. Just like mine wasn't.
To expect other people to be your crutch and think that they can't live their life if they're able to be responsible just because you made poor decisions in yours that's pretty selfish the world doesn't revolve around you n then u talk bad on ur own blood to the world to see n think ur the righteous one in this scenario?
A subhuman species . . . How apropos. It's easy enough to not say anything to a comment you don't understand. I consolidated as much as possible and definitely recognized where I could have done better. Why don't you come meet my "sister" and then give your unwanted opinion again? You're part of the problem with humanity in general if you think this small snippet of my life encompasses the entirety of it. Grow up and realize you're not allowed to make snap judgement on anyone from a single comment on a TH-cam video. My story is definitely longer than this, and I'm glad for you that you have a good family. Not everyone has it that way.
I have been dealing with disordered eating my whole life. During the early overweight years when I wanted to lose weight, I could decide to only have ice cream cone once a year, like on a hot summer day, and not eat french fries for six months. Sugar and bread have been a mighty opponents, so I skip the entire bakery section of the grocery store.I love the taste of a glazed doughnut more than life itself, but I don’t drive through Dunkin Donuts. I did have 2 doughnuts last year when I was craving them. If no one buys the dozen doughnuts and you just eat food - regular food, you won’t deal with blood sugar lows which make you able to eat all the bread and all the sugar before you even know what happened. I think if I gave in to all the doughnuts, ice cream, white breads, Entemenns coffee cakes, and pies every week, I’d be supersize, too. I’m overweight now but I’ve never been huge, i mean I’ve never had life-threatening consequences of my diet.
So I watched the whole season of this show, and in the subreddit a lot of people were speculating that vannessa's sister is an addict and relies on the govt assistance money that vannessa and her kids get, which is why she fought so hard to keep vannessa fat and prevent her from moving out. A lot of people were saying that the sister shows clear signs of being addicted to meth. Not sure if this is true or not, but it would explain a lot!
man they change what's good for us so often i'm surprised we've live through childhood. i know us older folks grew up with the eggnog made with raw eggs, one cutting board for everything, everything smothered in gravy, and always rolls or buttered bread, my dad would eat a half a loaf of bread and butter every night. all this while his mother chain smoked at the dinner table.
I lost about 30lbs but not eating as much and using my common sense with eating. I fell off the wagon and only lost 4 in the last month but still going down!
I'll never forget the day my work did an early meeting and said they'd be providing breakfast. I walked in and there are THREE CAKES on the table and everyone's just going ham on them at like 7 am. I thought they were all insane.
Misery loves company. Some people don't want to see you improve your life because they hate theirs. as soon as you start on a new path, they want to drag you back down to their path.
In England we have a saying "Beans beans good for ya heart the more ya eat the more ya fart the more ya fart the better ya heart" and thats why we put beans on EVERYTHING
I hate mayo and like Greek yogurt and it never occurred to me that I could try making some of the mayo dishes I've always refused to touch with unsweetened yogurt instead, even though I use it as a substitute for sour cream all the time.
My toddler loves pea crisps (harvest snaps). They are actually baked, but baked with a vegetable oil. The protein and vitamins in them does make them healthier than normal potato chips
Just about most of the snacks on the market that's suppose to be healthy for you, have more calories then a meal at McDonald's! Ken and Dane are looking hot as hell today! Mary and Amber are two lucky women. When Ken and Dane started cheering for the fly I almost fell of my bed laughing! They were so excited and happy as if cheering for their favorite team. Her sister though, needs psychological help! Seriously, she's toxic and she doesn't care about her sister's health at all.
I was laughing soo freaking hard with the fly and the hole thing too🤣🤣🤣 They we’re so freaking excited lmaooo I love them so much! I really needed that laugh 💗
I honestly think the sister wants to keep Vanessa fat so she can stay dependent on her so she won't leave. They definitely show signs of codependency and I'm super proud of Vanessa for breaking out of that
I love frozen Greek yogurt! I live in Texas and need some help cooling down... always, so I put my Noosa yogurts into the freezer (I shake them up first, so they freeze well-distributed) so that I can grab one whenever I need to. We do the same with lemonades we make ourselves (with lemon juice, water, and minimal sugar). So yummy!!! 💜💜💜
"Healthy" noodles still contain about the same amount of calories as regular noodles. It's just better to watch portions and substitute with actual vegitables for most meals.
"Beans beans good for your heart. The more you eat the more you fart. The more you fart the better you feel. The better you feel after every meal!" Literally one of my favorite phrases I say whenever I eat beans 😅
There is a local delicacy in the area I moved to 4 years ago. In the Western tip of Virginia, they fry black seeded simpson ... which is a floppy, pale, tasteless lettuce. Tried it once and it tastes like you would think fried salad tastes. It is an abomination.
Family members can be toxic I have family I don't speak to and i love them from afar. Just bc ur related don't mean you have to have that person in your life. It's a very hard thing tho. Thx guys for more great content. 😊
I'm glad to see that these two seem actually receptive to the advice they're being given and not just straight up going "Oh god, you want me to eat VEGETABLES? NOT CHEESE?" even if at one point that girl thought spinach pasta was just 100% spinach- I don't blame her for thinking that if she's never had it before and honestly I'd think it's a little gross too and I don't mind eating spinach lol On a side note I've never seen two full grown men so excited to see a fly on food and be fully engaged in it going for the filling LOL
@@xXJosephxneXx same, I had tested positive on the 2nd of December and spent Christmas and New years without my kids as they were negative, I honestly didn't feel as bad as I thought I would it was just like having the flu with a cough but this time ugh my whole body hurts its horrible and I'm high risk so kinda scared as I just tested positive today and I feel dreadful. As you can tell I'm feeling sorry f0r myself lol .
How I was brought up.. going have salad with dinner.. wilted leaf lettuce salad??? Leaf lettuce, fresh fried bacon ( I cut my bacon before cooking, 1 pound cut into 1 inch strips and spring onions end to end diced and tossed in… now the wilted dressing goodness… take that bacon grease ( a southern staple, you are not a southern cook unless you have a container of saved bacon grease, adds flavor to green beans, steak, fried potatoes and adds pounds 😉) while bacon grease is still in your frying pan add vinegar to taste and boil on low. Then pour over salad and mix well… oh holy hopping hell this is good!
11:18 Once upon a time in America the bread was real bread, before everyone started packing sugar into it. There is literally only one kind of bread at Walmart (and they have a shit ton of different bread) that has no sugar which I always buy, and the stock is always low. Natures Own Life 100% whole grain, 0g sugar, only 1g of maltitol, and only 50cal per the standard sized slice. EDIT: The bread I get also lasts longer outside the fridge, less mold problems after the sell by date.
Also on the food pyramid thing, if you look into it, basically everyone is actually lactose-intolerant and the only reason there is dairy on the food pyramid is because the dairy product companies.
@@thenanoboost yeah people look at me weird if I drink a glass of milk but like sometimes you gotta have it, maybe I don't eat enough calcium or something and that's why I start craving it but sometimes I just really want a glass of milk.
1200-1500 calories? I feel like thats way too hard for someone who is used to eating a lot. I've been eating 2000 calories a day and I've lost 20lbs in 3 months.
I'd say 1500-1800 would be a healthy intake for those women. 1200 is the absolute lowest healthy intake for a woman and typically applies to very petite women. Im 5'1 and if i werent as physically active as i am id prob be in that range but currently with my activity level 1400-1500 is where im at. It's actually not that difficult as green veggies are EXTREMELY filling and can be eaten in large amounts for very little caloric intake. I actually struggled to meet my caloric needs in the beginning of my clean eating change and was eating way under bc I was so full from veggies. Protein increase also gives a feeling of fullness as well. If they were eating healthy foods and healthy macros I don't think they'd struggle due to hunger pains it's more a mental thing at that point as going from highly processed food to non processed is difficult the first few weeks. After cutting processed foods high added sugars actually made me sick due to being too sweet. Your taste buds change and actually appreciate the flavors of natural foods.
A female body requires less energy than a male body due to less muscle mass and a shorter average height. The female body also converts excess energy intake as fat more readily. I'm a 5'9" guy and I have to stick to 1700 cal/day to stay in the upper healthy range of optimal BMI (155lbs). Being sedentary also contributes to my lower intake allowance, sitting in an office instead of walking around all day.
How can the sister think that what she is doing is OK? Also the audacity to be upset when you get called out on doing something so toxic and is literally going to kill her sibling. Is she attempting to kill her on purpose for something?
It took so much effort to make that breakfast for dinner spread and they could have done a fun pretty spread of fresh fruit and an egg scramble with veggies. Maybe whole grain toast? You make the donuts and pancakes a sometimes food and do a small amount. Also I hear you on having to eat below the "recommended" calories. My 30s hit my metabolism like a freight train so now my maintenance calories are 1200 and if I want to actively lose weight I need to aim for 800-1k. Can't wait til it's safe to hit the gym again working out at home without machines is so hard. ;o;
@@Prophezora the community transmission in my area is still really high and noone wears masks so I am still not going back to the gym yet. Not worth the risk.
The food pyramid changed alot from the great depression, bread and butter were so high on the list because of the high calories and it was cost effective for poor families once society started to prosper again and dietitians learned more about health it's evolved constantly from then to now and is still ever changing as we learn, it's also no longer a pyramid because it was decided that was a flawed idea in general. There were also points in the food pyramid history where it was used as propaganda to benefit the dairy industry, it's a very interesting history.
My husband was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and high BP. We follow a 50/50 rule. 50 percent veggies on every plate, and 50 percent lean meats or alternate protein. His doctor is proud of him, and thinks he will reverse the diagnosis in the year. We do occasional treats but in small portions. The treat last night was a few tortilla chips and salsa. It is hard, but without support I think it would be impossible.
How can his doctor reverse the diagnosis?
Diabetes type 2 is for life. It will never go away.
It can only be halted, which is not enough to reverse a diagnosis.
To be more exact: We talk of remission and not a cure because it isn't permanent. The beta cells have been damaged and the underlying genetic factors contributing to the person's susceptibility to diabetes remain intact. Over time the disease process reasserts itself and continued destruction of the beta cells ensues.
Oats are one of the most powerful LDL cholesterol lowering foods and cinnamon is a great blood sugar lowering supplement. Casia cinnamon works (sweeter) but real cinnamon (smells spicier) works best. Avocado is also a great blood sugar lowerer.
Regular exercise is good. Watch the blood pressure regularly too and if you detect any strange signs; dizzy or chest pains etc, then get a scan.
God Bless
@@Scorpy666 i think that’s what she meant. If it’s regulated right, you can control it in a way there’s little to no symptoms. But no, it never actually goes away.
Well done both of you!! Keep it up!
Somebody that brings a ton of unhealthy food in front of you when they know you're struggling is equivalent of someone having a drug problem then your "friend" brings and does that drug around you. That person isn't your friend.
Exactly!
The same way I don't offer friends who don't drink an alcoholic beverage or someone who is lactose intolerant something with dairy. I care about my friends so if I know they can't have or prefer not to have something I try to make sure there is something they can have instead.
@@vcutler4735 thats not the same, because youre not describing vices
I think ur wrong when I stopped my vices my friends offered and did it around me all the time. I didn't care just because I have to stop don't mean I have to kill the party around me. She could all types of donuts in the house it's not up to her sister to stop her life for her. She needs will power and she wouldn't even look at it. Your not a good friend by making everyone stop what they want to do cause u have a addiction, it's selfish in reality. And I'm glad they offered instead of hiding it around me that's a real friend. I just had the will power to say no and they respected it every time.
@@blingmaster1049 I was a cokehead for 8 years so it wouldn't be terrible of people to bring it and be snorting lines around me and pushing me to do a bump when they know how hard it messed me up and I was getting help and recovering?
"What are you gonna do, NOT eat donuts?"
...yes. avoiding donuts is EXACTLY what she should be doing
I mean duh but it's not that easy for her and her sister shouldn't be bringing them and the house let alone encouraging her to have some
BUT it's a donut! By law, if a donut is in front of you, you HAVE to eat it. Everyone knows this. You can't just not eat a donut, the police are gonna come busting through the door if you try.
Haven't seen a doughnut in months
I mean, a glazed chocolate donut is about 350. She could eat it but she just has to stay within her goal of 1500. And also not top herself up just within the first meal of the day!!! Her sister brought over what looks like an entire dozen and when she says no acts like she can't ever eat another donut again.
I feel genuinely bad she has to deal with a sister like that. I hope she stays strong so she can follow her goals
At least no one has to wonder about the family dynamic on this one. It's not a deep dive🤣🤣🤣. A good counselor would read this family in about 30 seconds.
They are best friends
"that's what it is, she's hungry!"
no, she's just upset that you're a bad influence on her and don't have the decency to support her decisions during this pinnacle turning point of her life even though she's always there for you. But yeah, eat your donuts...
I think that sister loves enabling her for some sick reasons we may not ever know
@@emberdt7998 she gets to identify as "the skinny one" in the group compared to "the big girls" and that seems about the extent of the depth she's developed
well to be fair, she is right tbh..........if you eat "healthy", your body will naturallt shed the weight to where it should be
*cut the processed crap
*cut the very unhealthy stuff out (junk food)
*ect
if you basically eat as "organic" as you can, you shouldnt have any issues losing weight...........the thing is if like let's say 80-90% of the time or something you eat "healthy", there's no reason you cant eat idk a doughnut or 2 or something on the side every once in a while
-------------------------
*Meanwhile, something like McDonald's every once in a while is still super unhealthy (processed to the max + super unhealthy ingredients - shouldnt every basically eat stuff like that)
*same with pop (pop is a better toilet cleaner than most cleaning products on the market..........imagine what that does to your insides?)
------------------------
so yea, i agree with what she says where she should eat doughnuts sometimes (esp if she is being grouchy all the time because she's is craving something)..........but i also get where she's coming from not wanting to eat it at all (but that's the #1 worst ***WRONG***** advice from most diets that ends up making people quit because they get to a point where they're either so hungry they cant take it anymore, or so miserable eating stuff they dont like)
@@ilhanrasljanin7196 As a housekeeper, let me say, soda is NOT a toilet cleaner. It's acidic, so you pour it inside the bowl and it eats the sediment and waste left on the bottom of the toilet...but it does not disinfect, clean, or kill any bacteria. You would certainly never spray it on the seat or anything. If you just use the toilet brush in the bowl every once in a while, you'd never actually need to pour soda in it.
@@br2k She can also identify as the toothless one!!!! Meth rotted them top teefs' right outta her head!!!! LOL
Imagine, someone you are supposed to love and care for is trying to quit smoking. They have emphysema and will die if they do not stop. So you invite them over, and make sure to have a table full of cigarettes, cigars, ashtrays, etc waiting for them. When they rightfully express concern, you reply “i just want you to be happy”
“You’re never going to stop eating donuts” 😧 She could have a donut once in a blue moon, it’s about moderation, but her sister literally put in front of her a full plate of donuts. Your sister is killing herself with food and you’re pushing a bakers dozen, sick
The sister is killing herself with meth and doesn’t see food as a problem or that it can be a valid addiction.
Yeah I’m never giving up doughnuts for life I get a free dozen this month for my birthday at Krispy Kreme so when my nieces comes back next week and my brother and sister in law we will get them it’s a free dozen glazed
That last sentence went hard
@@Super_Grover_ bahaha! Thank you! For the life of me I couldn't figure out what it was that bothered me when I looked at her other than her c***** personality! That's exactly what she looks like!
This is essentially assisted suicide tbh
I feel like the sister is trying to keep the people around them more focused on the eating addiction so she can hide in the shadows with whatever addiction she's dealing with herself.
I wonder what it is...but whatever it is I still hate her
Misery loves company 😞....They are never your well wishers even if they are someone your own family or friends...... hope she can get what she wants 💕
It has to be
As someone who's lived in a town full of them, and has worked in a nursing home/rehab, I can tell you she has some low level Meth Face. So I think you're right.
I'm fairly certain the skinny one is on drugs. Not due to her weight (although I know quite personally that drugs can drastically reduce your weight, even dank when used heavily for prolonged periods of time), but due to her behavior, cluelessness, and the specific ways that she pushes her ideas without any substantive reason to do so
I’m not an expert but I have worked in healthcare for over a decade and it seems like an abuse of prescription pills specifically opiates. Just the mannerisms and thought processes.
@@Krooseval so smack head thats just as bad as meth so dont be here making excuses for that little skinny wrongun
I mean she does look like a crack addict herself ngl so maybe you're not too far from the mark
Lol, the Skinny one???
Fun fact in the 90s in Canada when I was in grade school the food pyramid we where taught in class and on TV was sponsored by the Dairy Farmers of Canada as as such had a higher amount of dairy products on it with a big emphasis on cows milk. Because they paid for it to be there lol, so you are right about it changing and not trusting it.
"Got Milk?" Campaign ads with milk mustaches and pep talks in mirrors that see future milk drinking self. 👀
@@missyfunk3098 FINALLY SOME ONE MENTIONED IT. I was looking through the comments hopeful that someone would mention that the dairy industry pushed itself on to us. There is NO health benefits of (animal) milk. The industry lobbied the government, and spread fake information for YEARS until it became "You HAVE TO drink milk." They even push it on to infants. SO many people in the USA force their 1 year old to drink cows milk because "They have to JUST drink milk at 1!".
Tammy just came out and said they ARE working on season 4 as of June this year ! She said that the new season should be out next year ,she also said she wasn't supposed to talk about it but since she wasn't telling any "secrets" about the show she didn't see why she couldn't at least let her fans know there WILL BE A SEASON 4 . I'm so excited !!!
hooray for exploitation of mental AND physical illness!
I'm partly excited and partly ready to cring out of my skin at the thought of season 4, but regardless it will be entertaining
Ugh that's unfortunate news
What's amazing is that she thinks that she has fans when in reality we all watch to see her fail because she's a food addict who doesn't want to help herself.
“Fans”? “Excited”??? whet lol she has FANS? People get EXCITED over that show? Lol
I wish I was the type of person to like such mindless, awful things lol. My life would be so eeeee-z
Like imagine if she was an Alcoholic, and the sister brought like everclear, vodka, and like Hennessey and saying "here you're so angry when you're sober"
Jesus her sister is all kinds of _awful!_ It baffles me that some people can be so blind to others’ needs!
The fly commentary is the funniest part of this video. I couldn’t stop laughing. 😂😂😂😂

I don't know why TLC would claim stuff because these types of videos are the only way that most people find this content and then eventually watch it
I started watching 90 Day Fiancé because of Ken and Dane. Felt like I needed more of that particular insanity in my life. Things were surprisingly wholesome in the earlier seasons, but I'm still enjoying it
I absolutely love TLC, like the cringe. Most if my friends don't no any of those shows on the network.
Greek yogurt is a really good alternative to sour cream for alot of things. Especially when you make a dip. I use Greek yogurt, brown gravy mix, and dehydrated onions to make a mock french onion dip for things that's a tiny bit healthier than regular dip. It tastes a bit richer in my opinion. I use the 2% Fage greek yogurt as I like that brand the best.
I'm going to try this 😊
I dunno if greek yoghurt is different in the USA but where I live it tastes different and has a different consistency as well. To compare.. Greek yoghurt here tastes slightly sweet and the consistency is super thick yet creamy while on the other hand sour cream is way lighter,has a watery substance along with it and tastes slightly bitter but almost neutral. In terms of similarity in taste it's worlds apart unless you only use it for mixing it in a sauce or something. Because of that the greek yoghurt talk in the video really confused me xD
@@jos-josradvanji6203 I think our sour cream may be different than your sour cream then. Sour cream taste and consistency here does depend on the brand but as alot of things in the USA it's a bit sweeter and can be a bit thicker. I know when I had sour cream in Canada as a kid/teen it was quite a bit different than what I was used to at home.
@@shaydawn7376 Its really good plus you can adjust it to your own taste so if you like it a bit more mild or stronger you can get it exactly how you want it. You can even add onion or garlic powder for an added flavor boost if you want. Or another way is to use the brown gravy mix and some dehydrated vegetables for like soup mixes. You have to let it set for about an hour that way the veggies get a bit softer but it's another good dip. You could also rehydrate the dried veggie mix in a few tablespoons of hot water for a few minutes then drain and add to the mix too if yours have some harder things like peas or corn.
I'm not a huge fan of the Greek yoghurt, the Turkish is alright, and I don't think I've tried the Russian yoghurt more than once. Maybe it's a thing here (live in Sweden), they are from the same company, Salakis, so I don't know if those are available in the US.
But a small amount of agave honey with either of those three, such a good snack, especially on a hot day. And I hate honey normally 🤣
I think “free-range eggs” are deceiving because the chickens are allowed to wander freely…in huge, extremely cramped sheds. Some sheds have no access to sunlight etc. It’s only a step above fully caged hens.
Pastured / pasture-raised eggs are what you want. The more local and fresh, the better 🥚
Okay… the fly thing was hilarious. It was a nice laugh in between the crackhead sister 🤣
I know, I was so invested in that fly's journey to the center of the donut.
Same here! I was wondering if it was gonna make it or not 😂
I remember that nutrition stuff happening with Apples in particular. At first they were healthy because they are fruits, then they are unhealthy because we find out it's loaded with sugar, then they are healthy again because we learn the difference between bad and good sugars...it's crazy
I really hate seeing people taunt people who are trying to do better for themselves. And using "I want you to be happy" as a way to pressure them to eat. It's so frustrating.
I know this is really random but I’ve been watching you guys for a bit over 6 months now and I have to say I have anxiety here and there like everyone else. I get overwhelmed sometimes like the rest of the world. Although in my free time I’ll throw on a TH-cam video and whenever you guys upload a new video I’m subscribed so I see recent videos in my feed, I watch just to zone out and with that being said you guys never fail to make me smile with your commentary. Thank you for these videos and I hope who’s reading has a beautifully blessed day ❤️
Amen sister.
Same ❤️
Back atcha sweetie. Dane and Ken cut through my anxiety like a hot knife through butter. Something about genuine unabated laughter just sets my day on the right course.

I recommend binging their meme couch playlist
The feeder sister made one point: you can't say no to donuts forever. As a recovering binge eater myself, saying "I'll never eat (insert food)" causes obsessive cravings. A balanced way to include all foods might look like: put the donut on a plate with some strawberries and plain Greek yogurt (protein + fiber+ food you might binge = living with no off limits food)
Exactly ... i learned that during my diet.
If i eat a cookie, chocolate bar or donut here and there makes it easier to not overeat on them if i always say no.
Dieting is still mostly psychological !
Now almost 2 years in, i still have good disciplined weeks and also bad weeks.
but i taught myself to not fixate on a monthly goal anymore. The only rule is to not gain any except muscle mass.
I lost a 110lbs so far, but still have 80lbs to go.
A better option is to find or make healthier alternatives to the junk food items. The obsessive cravings are there because you continue to have the item that you created well worn paths in your brain to think about it. Once you're down out of the danger zone of morbid obesity you can start adding in some of those unhealthy items sparsely so your brain doesn't go back to addicted mode. It's really no different for your brain than any other addiction. Ppl who quit heroin can't do a little bit as part of a balanced substance diet, because it's just keeping that path established in their brain to continue to crave it. The brunette in this series is proof of this, as she already had gastric bypass but still eats junk food so she's still morbidly obese.
That is actually great advice
I'm a big stress and comfort eater, moat likely a sugar addict as well. But I've found that if I have the thing in question, let's say a chocolate bar for example, in the fridge, I can let it be there for a very long time without touching it. Kinda like it's comforting to me just to know that I have it, and I'll go and snack on tomatoes instead, compared to me having a small freak out because I don't have a chocolate bar laying in the fridge. If that makes sense.
Except in this case, the woman clearly didn't want a donut. The feeder sister was arguing with her to try to force her into eating one. It would have been different if the woman had shown any signs of even being interested in having one.
For anyone trying to lose weight,
From someone who recently lost 88 pounds over 2 years, keep it up, keep a caloric defecit, keep ur motivations strong, ignore those who try to stop u and understand that weight loss will definitely upgrade ur quality of life.
That stuff about chicken treatment and egg labeling that Ken mentioned is exactly why I started raising my own hens. Totally worth it. I love my girls and they're super happy and are all great layers.
The fly was the REAL star of the show. He was there to mind control the skinny sister into buying lots of donuts and then being evil and creating a reverse psychology induced reaction that resulted in the donuts NOT being eaten so the fly had MORE TO ITSELF!
Nutrition is such a tough subject to generalize because companies just want more customers which affects even what is recommended to consumers. At the end of the day, everyone's needs are slightly different when it comes to food so relying on just calorie intake or the food pyramid isn't enough. Work on figuring out what gets you the results you want in terms of health and focus on that!
It's a very easy subject. You eat and watch in a mirror if u need more or less.
@@Scorpy666 oh yeah for the individual it’s fine, but making like a general rule or guideline for everyone to follow is difficult
@@Scorpy666 Nutrition is about more than calories, and it is a problem in advertising. Your appearance in the mirror won't tell anyone if all nutritional needs are being met for vitamins and minerals except in more severe cases. This is why doctor's order blood tests instead of just looking at their patients. Calories are an aspect of nutrition, not the whole of it. The commercials mentioned in the video are a good example of this problem of advertising guiding nutrition.
I will say that my nutritionist said getting 30-40g of good protein a day (so not burgers and bacon) is almost a surefire way to lose weight for most people. If anyone needs some advice
Edit to say that getting your vitamins and minerals is also very important if you're on a high protein diet
@@BestBES People also forget that fat is important too! It helps the body to absorb some vitamins, provides fatty acids (which the body can't make), and helps with some bodily/organ functions. Eating good fat and protein in moderation are important to nutrition and weight managment.
the compareson with drugs is such a great way to compare it the sister wants temperary and immediate happines for her but don't realize how much more damage that does on her in the long run.
also i wouldn't be suprise if she herself don't eat to unhealthy she just wants her kids and sister to be happy but she does it in a destructive way.
the oldest son seemed kinda up for trying to be more healthy tho hope for his sake he catches it now while its still early.
What made me mad was the woman sitting there "bein' 18 years old for a boy, a man, you don't need to be on no diet."
Like, LADY!!! WHAT business is it of yours if a boy/man decides to diet to try and get healthier even if they're 18?
Especially implying that they specifically don't need to be on a diet just because they're MALE!!!
@@a_d3mon in a later episode her son went with her to the doctor to see about his weight and he was well over 400lbs.
@@familyof1052 my point was the lady, I'm assuming the feeder sister, made that comment when ANYONE could clearly see that the kids aren't exactly in a healthy bmi for their age. If the kid(s) want to actually diet and/or exercise it's NONE of her business and that's what made me mad.
It irritates me when I order a salad, because all I want is lettuce, dressing, and black olives. But I always get weird looks, like I'M the strange one for not wanting a loaded salad lol
I don't want loaded salads either. Lettuce, chicken, bacon bits, and dressing are enough for me. And I don't even need that much dressing.
“Eat food, not too much, mostly plants” and “everything in moderation, including moderation” are phrases to live by I think
I’ve heard “everything in moderation” but not the “including moderation” part!!! I LOVE that! It’s okay to go a little crazy in moderation!! Doesn’t mean you have to be 100% balanced at all times
i thought it was "everything in moderation, except moderation, do that all the time"
"Mostly plants" Are you mentally unstable?
She does move out and her sister freaks out it’s hilarious, you she just how toxic she really is
Their reaction and play-by-play of the fly going for the filling, was so funny I had to rewatch multiple time XD
I've replaced sour cream, mayonnaise, and the likes, with yogurt a few months ago myself and it really is a great much healthier much lower calorie replacement! Been changing foods for better alternatives, no dieting, no hunger, just more conscious eating, and have lost over 20 kilograms the past 5 months. Knowing what you shove down your throat really makes a world of difference.
Im currently dieting and this was hard to watch haha, those donuts and stuff looked amazing/ Im at the heaviest ive ever been at 242lb, my knees and back hurt, always exhausted, couldnt even imagine how these ladies feel if i feel like this at almost a third their weight lol
I am 4ft11 so really short and I am 175lb I am at my heaviest my back and knees hurt real bad I start take walk everyday for one month now and this morning that was the first time my walk seem easy on my back and knees I was really happy ! If you can and if you capable try to walk 5000 steps a day you will probably see a difference like me after a month or so !! I am with you you can do this ! Have a great weekend !
Good luck with your diet! I’m skinny, always been. I’ve recently dieted to 130 now from my highest at 160. I bet a nutritionist would give me a medal for how good my diet is now. I also have a digestive disorder that made me intolerant to gluten, eggs, nuts (I could go on forever), so I know what it’s like to restrict food groups entirely out of necessity. I don’t cheat EVER on it. It was one of the hardest things emotionally to deal with. Even with all this, eating at 1500cal on the new diet made me hungry at a VERY high frequency... All this being said, I can only imagine how hard it would be to deal with the hunger and food restrictions at the same time at a higher weight, probably getting even hungrier than I do. Have mad respect for everybody who can push through and lose the weight on a healthier lifestyle ✨💪🏻
I set an alarm for 10:00 and got upset when I had to refresh 3 times before the video popped up 😂 It’s safe to say your videos are definitely a part of my routine now
My mom has always told me when you’re trying to lose weight it’s “meats, fruits and vegetables” and she means non starchy vegetables and lean meats.
She took that Snickers (you're not you when you're hungry) commercial too seriously
"What is she smoking?!"
Best line🤣
Buff talking about those pea chips at 3:31, I had this exact experience with them. I still buy them sometimes as a guilty pleasure snack 😋
They are delicious!
Please do more kays cooking. And I love you guys honestly hilarious 😂
I need more Kay's Cooking in my life
Eggs are bad for your heart, twenty years later eggs are heart healthy. Honestly, I think moderation and movement are far more important than what you eat. Clearly fruits and vegetables more important than junk food but denying something sweet you crave can make you fall off the wagon.
Read meat, salmon, sardines, shrimp, fish, eggs, raw goat milk kefir and some fruit + greens are the only way I function properly. Grains, beans, legumes, seeds, nuts etc mess me up and cause crazy weight gain. Many vegetables are also harmful to me. When I stick to a low lectin, low histamine, limited ingredient diet free from my allergenic foods, I lost weight. Nothing else works for me.
When I start cheating it can become a slippery slope, especially if something bad happened in my life, or when I’m depressed. I like enjoying standard american foods that I grew up with, but I have to be SO mindful. When I’m “messing up” my diet I am still eating WAY more healthy than most Americans. It’s crazy. I think weight gain is a genetic problem in my family, too. We are way too efficient at getting fat 😂
Walking, strength training, hiking and swimming also help big time. When I’m injured and can’t work out, everything goes haywire. 15-20lb weight gain, easy.
I'll slam back a family size bag of butter fingers. But i also run 3 miles and exercise 4 to 5 times a week. It only just dawned on my i eat like... a disgusting amount of candy... however I stay so damn active im probably just burning it the minute i go back to daily activities.
@@Vancev99x for you a family size bag is moderate because you move so much. Lol

I love watching you guys bruh, never fails to make me laugh. Went thru some rough patches yet everytime I watched these vids it no longer felt as if I was alone. You guys the best!
My family used to have breakfast for dinner and we just called it "breakfast for dinner" and not "brupper" or whatever they called it lol
Yeah and it's ghetto AF
We do it occasionally when we’ve had a long day because it’s a quick meal. It can be healthier if you stick with whole grains and use fresh fruit instead of syrup.
"Brupper" just sounds gross.
Her sister is obviously a binge eater and she feeds her sister because her sister gets a lot more weight gain than her and it makes her feel better
The little doctor in this show is like Mother Theresa for obese people.
Buff cracking up over the fly is so wholesome and funny, shaaa😂
Damn Dane ya fell for the Wasabi Pea trap, Friggin things are addictive as hell
Oh. My. God. I can relate to this in the most disturbing way. Literally the way that the woman who wants to diet tried to explain it like being a drug addiction. I literally looked to my sister after being sober for over two years, asked her if she would be mad at me if I did anything, and she told me no. And I went INSANE back to 6 feet under. She's an alcoholic in denial, so she had alcohol in my face all of the time. She smoked weed all of the time in my face, knowing I was in a treatment program. I'm not saying I couldn't have walked away, and I did a few times, but I couldn't prevent her from following me. And a lot of that time, I was living WITH her. Then there would be the family getting ahold of me with the excuses for her and damning me for trying to stay away . . . Addiction is no joke. And her sister is absolutely not being a support. Just like mine wasn't.
To expect other people to be your crutch and think that they can't live their life if they're able to be responsible just because you made poor decisions in yours that's pretty selfish the world doesn't revolve around you n then u talk bad on ur own blood to the world to see n think ur the righteous one in this scenario?
A subhuman species . . . How apropos. It's easy enough to not say anything to a comment you don't understand. I consolidated as much as possible and definitely recognized where I could have done better. Why don't you come meet my "sister" and then give your unwanted opinion again? You're part of the problem with humanity in general if you think this small snippet of my life encompasses the entirety of it. Grow up and realize you're not allowed to make snap judgement on anyone from a single comment on a TH-cam video. My story is definitely longer than this, and I'm glad for you that you have a good family. Not everyone has it that way.
Some people actually prefer that you not get better, they’ll just sabotage you out of insecurity or something idk
@@thirteen60oyvey wooow, seems like youre projecting there, asshole. Bet you do the same to ur own siblings. Disgusting.
I hope you're doing better now, just keep doing what you need to do and that as long as you're still trying, not giving up, you're doing good
I have been dealing with disordered eating my whole life. During the early overweight years when I wanted to lose weight, I could decide to only have ice cream cone once a year, like on a hot summer day, and not eat french fries for six months. Sugar and bread have been a mighty opponents, so I skip the entire bakery section of the grocery store.I love the taste of a glazed doughnut more than life itself, but I don’t drive through Dunkin Donuts. I did have 2 doughnuts last year when I was craving them. If no one buys the dozen doughnuts and you just eat food - regular food, you won’t deal with blood sugar lows which make you able to eat all the bread and all the sugar before you even know what happened.
I think if I gave in to all the doughnuts, ice cream, white breads, Entemenns coffee cakes, and pies every week, I’d be supersize, too. I’m overweight now but I’ve never been huge, i mean I’ve never had life-threatening consequences of my diet.
That would be the perfect time to use the line "you're killing me smalls" lol
So I watched the whole season of this show, and in the subreddit a lot of people were speculating that vannessa's sister is an addict and relies on the govt assistance money that vannessa and her kids get, which is why she fought so hard to keep vannessa fat and prevent her from moving out. A lot of people were saying that the sister shows clear signs of being addicted to meth. Not sure if this is true or not, but it would explain a lot!
man they change what's good for us so often i'm surprised we've live through childhood. i know us older folks grew up with the eggnog made with raw eggs, one cutting board for everything, everything smothered in gravy, and always rolls or buttered bread, my dad would eat a half a loaf of bread and butter every night. all this while his mother chain smoked at the dinner table.
The fly was the best part of that video xD “GET IN THATHOLE” Hadme dying xD
I lost about 30lbs but not eating as much and using my common sense with eating. I fell off the wagon and only lost 4 in the last month but still going down!
This sister is literally just trying to make everyone chubbs
I'll never forget the day my work did an early meeting and said they'd be providing breakfast. I walked in and there are THREE CAKES on the table and everyone's just going ham on them at like 7 am. I thought they were all insane.
Misery loves company. Some people don't want to see you improve your life because they hate theirs. as soon as you start on a new path, they want to drag you back down to their path.
1:01 Dane’s face is legitimately intimidating here. If I were the TLC producers, I’d be scurred. It’s like he’s plotting….. 🤣
The bit with the flies just sent me lmao
The lady in the middle of the couch FORSURE HAS A METH PIPE HIDING SOMEWHERE!!
In England we have a saying "Beans beans good for ya heart the more ya eat the more ya fart the more ya fart the better ya heart" and thats why we put beans on EVERYTHING
greek togurt instead of mayo is surprisingly good with something like chicken salad
I hate mayo and like Greek yogurt and it never occurred to me that I could try making some of the mayo dishes I've always refused to touch with unsweetened yogurt instead, even though I use it as a substitute for sour cream all the time.
The fly circling the glory hole had me dead.😂😂😂😂
The fly going in the donutfilling hole got me 😂😂💀
My toddler loves pea crisps (harvest snaps). They are actually baked, but baked with a vegetable oil. The protein and vitamins in them does make them healthier than normal potato chips
Just about most of the snacks on the market that's suppose to be healthy for you, have more calories then a meal at McDonald's! Ken and Dane are looking hot as hell today! Mary and Amber are two lucky women. When Ken and Dane started cheering for the fly I almost fell of my bed laughing! They were so excited and happy as if cheering for their favorite team. Her sister though, needs psychological help! Seriously, she's toxic and she doesn't care about her sister's health at all.
I was laughing soo freaking hard with the fly and the hole thing too🤣🤣🤣 They we’re so freaking excited lmaooo I love them so much! I really needed that laugh 💗
8:20 u can add Greek yogurt to smoothies, use it as a dip for fruit like apples or strawberries
When they sit down it looks like they got a lap tray on and I can't stop seeing it 💀😂
I honestly think the sister wants to keep Vanessa fat so she can stay dependent on her so she won't leave. They definitely show signs of codependency and I'm super proud of Vanessa for breaking out of that
I love frozen Greek yogurt! I live in Texas and need some help cooling down... always, so I put my Noosa yogurts into the freezer (I shake them up first, so they freeze well-distributed) so that I can grab one whenever I need to. We do the same with lemonades we make ourselves (with lemon juice, water, and minimal sugar). So yummy!!! 💜💜💜
She said "the mustard is good for you" when they were talking about potato salad lol
This is hilarious "is that a fly get in there😂😂"
Omg... I know exactly what Buff is talking about with the pea crisps... they got me too. I thought they'd be a good alternative for my boys... nah.
Australia's Pork advertisement is on another level then everyone else.
"We should Pork more"
"Healthy" noodles still contain about the same amount of calories as regular noodles. It's just better to watch portions and substitute with actual vegitables for most meals.
Ken and Buff back at it again! 1000 gang lessgo!!!!
Thanks Ken! I didn't know that about Greek yogurt. I'm DEF not trying to lose weight, but my daughter is, so we may try it.💕
"Beans beans good for your heart. The more you eat the more you fart. The more you fart the better you feel. The better you feel after every meal!" Literally one of my favorite phrases I say whenever I eat beans 😅
There is a local delicacy in the area I moved to 4 years ago. In the Western tip of Virginia, they fry black seeded simpson ... which is a floppy, pale, tasteless lettuce. Tried it once and it tastes like you would think fried salad tastes. It is an abomination.
Honestly, the fly bit was the funniest part of the video! 😂😂
Family members can be toxic I have family I don't speak to and i love them from afar. Just bc ur related don't mean you have to have that person in your life. It's a very hard thing tho. Thx guys for more great content. 😊
I'm glad to see that these two seem actually receptive to the advice they're being given and not just straight up going "Oh god, you want me to eat VEGETABLES? NOT CHEESE?" even if at one point that girl thought spinach pasta was just 100% spinach- I don't blame her for thinking that if she's never had it before and honestly I'd think it's a little gross too and I don't mind eating spinach lol
On a side note I've never seen two full grown men so excited to see a fly on food and be fully engaged in it going for the filling LOL
I have covid again 😭 so thank you for this video I needed to laugh.
Hope u feel better god bless and stay safe I had covid …. Last year through late December…. Through early January… ooooffff
@@xXJosephxneXx same, I had tested positive on the 2nd of December and spent Christmas and New years without my kids as they were negative, I honestly didn't feel as bad as I thought I would it was just like having the flu with a cough but this time ugh my whole body hurts its horrible and I'm high risk so kinda scared as I just tested positive today and I feel dreadful.
As you can tell I'm feeling sorry f0r myself lol .
Again? Mom had it twice but I had it last year then I had double covid pneumonia I was sick for 25 days I hope I never have it again
How I was brought up.. going have salad with dinner.. wilted leaf lettuce salad???
Leaf lettuce, fresh fried bacon ( I cut my bacon before cooking, 1 pound cut into 1 inch strips and spring onions end to end diced and tossed in… now the wilted dressing goodness… take that bacon grease ( a southern staple, you are not a southern cook unless you have a container of saved bacon grease, adds flavor to green beans, steak, fried potatoes and adds pounds 😉) while bacon grease is still in your frying pan add vinegar to taste and boil on low. Then pour over salad and mix well… oh holy hopping hell this is good!
11:18 Once upon a time in America the bread was real bread, before everyone started packing sugar into it. There is literally only one kind of bread at Walmart (and they have a shit ton of different bread) that has no sugar which I always buy, and the stock is always low. Natures Own Life 100% whole grain, 0g sugar, only 1g of maltitol, and only 50cal per the standard sized slice.
EDIT: The bread I get also lasts longer outside the fridge, less mold problems after the sell by date.
I'm so happy for this video because 1000 pound sisters were my favorite videos!
I would rather be "Hangry" then be ... ⚰️ DEAD ⚰️ !!! What kind of sibling Sabotages their struggling family like that !!! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
She really said "a pitcher of a vegable". 🤣😅😂
.. not a dry salad... I do the spritzed juice of an orange over it. Add lemon juice and salt and mix. So good.
Yes!!
That's exactly what I do 😃
The tension of the fly and the donut hole was riveting lol.
Also on the food pyramid thing, if you look into it, basically everyone is actually lactose-intolerant and the only reason there is dairy on the food pyramid is because the dairy product companies.
It's so good though 😭
@@Abigail_Monteith believe me, I know! 😂 I looooove milk and cheese
@@thenanoboost yeah people look at me weird if I drink a glass of milk but like sometimes you gotta have it, maybe I don't eat enough calcium or something and that's why I start craving it but sometimes I just really want a glass of milk.
@@Abigail_Monteith actually went through that myself yesterday 😅. Was soooo thirsty randomly and just wanted some damn milk! I got some, with coffee.
Omg the part with the fly was too funny! XD
1200-1500 calories? I feel like thats way too hard for someone who is used to eating a lot. I've been eating 2000 calories a day and I've lost 20lbs in 3 months.
Yeah that could put their body into retainment mode if it believes its body is starving since thats a massive cut from their standard calories
I'd say 1500-1800 would be a healthy intake for those women. 1200 is the absolute lowest healthy intake for a woman and typically applies to very petite women. Im 5'1 and if i werent as physically active as i am id prob be in that range but currently with my activity level 1400-1500 is where im at. It's actually not that difficult as green veggies are EXTREMELY filling and can be eaten in large amounts for very little caloric intake. I actually struggled to meet my caloric needs in the beginning of my clean eating change and was eating way under bc I was so full from veggies. Protein increase also gives a feeling of fullness as well. If they were eating healthy foods and healthy macros I don't think they'd struggle due to hunger pains it's more a mental thing at that point as going from highly processed food to non processed is difficult the first few weeks. After cutting processed foods high added sugars actually made me sick due to being too sweet. Your taste buds change and actually appreciate the flavors of natural foods.
A female body requires less energy than a male body due to less muscle mass and a shorter average height. The female body also converts excess energy intake as fat more readily. I'm a 5'9" guy and I have to stick to 1700 cal/day to stay in the upper healthy range of optimal BMI (155lbs). Being sedentary also contributes to my lower intake allowance, sitting in an office instead of walking around all day.
If you reach a plateau like I have, you have to have a caloric deficit.
@@breathoffreshair7795 That’s a myth.
Yo...that fly was giving me anxiety going into that donut. HAHAHAHA
How can the sister think that what she is doing is OK? Also the audacity to be upset when you get called out on doing something so toxic and is literally going to kill her sibling. Is she attempting to kill her on purpose for something?
That skinny sister is DEFINITELY on some kind of drugs... 💀
It took so much effort to make that breakfast for dinner spread and they could have done a fun pretty spread of fresh fruit and an egg scramble with veggies. Maybe whole grain toast? You make the donuts and pancakes a sometimes food and do a small amount.
Also I hear you on having to eat below the "recommended" calories. My 30s hit my metabolism like a freight train so now my maintenance calories are 1200 and if I want to actively lose weight I need to aim for 800-1k. Can't wait til it's safe to hit the gym again working out at home without machines is so hard. ;o;
You can't go to the gym yet?
@@Prophezora the community transmission in my area is still really high and noone wears masks so I am still not going back to the gym yet. Not worth the risk.
@@vcutler4735 bruh...you good. Go to the gym!
"Imagine eating a dry salad"
Looks at boyfriend eating a dry salad. 👀
The food pyramid changed alot from the great depression, bread and butter were so high on the list because of the high calories and it was cost effective for poor families once society started to prosper again and dietitians learned more about health it's evolved constantly from then to now and is still ever changing as we learn, it's also no longer a pyramid because it was decided that was a flawed idea in general. There were also points in the food pyramid history where it was used as propaganda to benefit the dairy industry, it's a very interesting history.
Omg those pea chips are my FAVORITE thing ever!! I thought they were healthy too haha
