Media isn't too bright for the most part - it's superficial, materialistic, and doesn't know much more than what they technically see - so that's what they talk about, allowing people to think it's so very important, too.
They aren't, they emphasize beauty not weight. Adelle losing weight is a good thing and the media has all the right in the world to share her achievement. People who think it's problematic are jealous.
The problem is not Adele loosing weight, the problem is the way the media is looking at it. People are looking at it being portrayed as a correct thing to do. Thank you for doing this video. Real information needs to be put out.
a little bit of everything yes, we don’t know all the facts. We don’t know how long it actually took her or if she even is doing what the trainer is saying. I do think the media is celebrating it in a disordered way and normalizing disordered behavior (what’s new?), but that has nothing to do with Adele.
@@clubafterlife no. I don't want people to have a chance of dying from heart attack. You act like what he said is wrong. The reason it is correct is because your body at weights not about 200 actually works better. Who would've known. The video is about the negative critique of her weight loss by the media. But this should not create an idea for people to not at least acknowledge the fact that it is correct. Shhhh is something you do when something is just wrong or unneeded. And seeing as it wasn't wrong and that people were blatantly saying it was fine to be overweight, then I think it was intended to be informative.
The person giving out information is NOT HER TRAINER. That woman had one session with Adele in 2013. Her trainer is Pete Gerasimou and has been since 2014 he works at this gym in London and he not ONCE has discussed Adele.
The excessive media coverage/focus on her body/weight has been driving me CRAZY 😡 - thank you SO much for addressing this Mia!!!!!! Was so keen for this video!!!!!! 👏❤️
I know! I hope Adele tries to stay away from reading it all. That poor woman must be terrified if she gains a couple of pounds back and is photographed. Media headlines being "Adele falls off diet wagon" or something ridiculous...this just isn't sustainable.
The fact that 1,000 calories a day is considered very restrictive really puts it into perspective just how much I’m in denial that my current caloric is, in fact, NOT normal or healthy in any way. I mean I’m still probably not going to go into recovery any time soon. But it makes me realize why my therapist is so concerned.
I ate somewhere around 1000 calories and maybe a little less somedaysfor quite sometime and since I had successfully dieted a few years before that I had lowered my metabolism and over 10 years I put on 100 pounds trying to lose the 20 I had kept off for 5 years .I had no idea that running my body into the ground for the last 33years would lead to me being obese.Maybe addressing your problem when you are young might be the best thing for you to hopefully not go through what my body has gone through.Its still a concept I dont get that you can become obese all while dieting and exercising .I didnt do it on purpose, I thought I was supposed to diet to lose weight.I wish you good luck.
Joanne Bayly except if you’re fat you can get the necessary energy from the excess weight. That’s the whole point. You guys are now disagreeing with experts. If you’re obese and inactive, 1200 is plenty
I really wish I could watch this video because they are always so well done by you, but I’m taking your warning from the start seriously to protect myself right now. I will come back to it when I get over this rough patch thank you for looking out for our best interests as always mia 💖💖
Adele has been losing weight since 2018 and has since 2019 been going through a difficult divorce. Everyone just needs to mind their business and let people live their lives
2:42 "exercise every day problematic"... what? I exercise pretty much every day. I am an athlete as my job and I eat plenty and am in excellent health. I am very lean but I have never had any food problems or health problems.. so why is this problematic? We train 6 days and on the 7th I take it easy but I have to move or I get twitchy.. why is this demonized?
li vin Mia is referring to Adele’s speculated weight loss regime; consuming limited calories (as the 1000 amount mentioned in the video) combined with everyday, possibly strenuous exercise is detrimental to the human body; perhaps not immediately, but sooner than later it takes a toll REGARDLESS of age.
li vin Totally agree. Exercising everyday is not problematic per se. I train almost everyday for pleasure, because I love it. I am lean but not skinny and I have a very healthy relationship with food and exercise.
Hi Mia! Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos. I was in a really bad mindset regarding my weight and looks just about a year ago, where I would go as far as eating less than 100 calories a day. I watched your videos during that time, and it really helped me to slow down my illness and get myself back to a healthy mindset and eating patterns. Lots of love.
Great video Mia!! I remember in the depths of my eating disorder I would purposely pick up magazines that had this kind of media coverage of celebrity diets and then try to copy whatever it was that the celebs were doing in the hope of losing weight. At the time I didn't think there was anything wrong with what the media was doing or what I was doing. It's only now I'm recovered to I realise how ridiculous it all was... and how damaging to those in a vulnerable position xx
Get one thing straight; if it didn't come from Adele's mouth it's speculation those numbers that you gave out about calories are speculation. Your speculating! The truth is here's what's problematic You're overly consumed with other people's behavior....
Thank you! I was reading about this topic and thinking the same thing. It actually made me realize how much progress I’ve made in recovery, because I was able to call out the bs pretty quickly. Definitely could be harmful for people early on in recovery though, so I definitely agree that the media needs to be more responsible.
People took her weight loss too personal. It's not problematic to celebrate her weight loss, because she was in an unhealthy range before. However i agree that her weight loss program was too restrictive, but I don't think that automaticly makes her behave or think in disorderd ways. Crash diets are not a good way to lose weight in a healthy way
Thank you so much for this refresher. I’ve been going through a rough patch getting caught up in “what should be” and “what I should look like” but this was what I needed to hear. In the end, thanks for helping me escape my ED voice. I needed it
"just because something is common doesn't mean it's normal" is a great sentence. this can be applied to so many areas of our culture. i wish we could change this world into one in which we can finally truly be human.
Thank you for posting this!!! I saw a photo of Adele and an article about her weight loss and told my roommate and she said "wow, good for her". I immediately was like "well, an 100 llb weight-loss is a lot of weight and I'm concerned about what went into this regiment". I was very saddened by the media's reaction to this diet and I was very worried for Adele's mental and physical health. We know from scientific research that a weight-loss this large, and a regiment this restrictive leads to HA, heart problems, and serious mental health problems. Thank you for addressing this like an actual human being concerned about another person's health!!
why do celebrity trainers always feel the need to employ these ridiculous crash diets? adele was overweight- she could have lost weight through just making healthier choices and a moderate calorie deficit.
I wasn’t aware of this, I do follow the media. KPOP is more concerning. I’m leaving this comment before the calorie counts because I’m in a bad place. I’m sure this was a good video
If someone makes a change in their life, Adele for example; loses some weight and she’s happy about it, she worked hard to do it and feels accomplished (I’m sure) The media celebrating that is not playing into some agenda.
Yes, thank you. If you were overweight as she was and want to lose weight and you work hard. Great. Celebrate it! It's good someone put work into themselves. They're just obsessed over someone else's weight. Disappointing.
Adele spent a shit ton of time talking about how she was fat and proud. Now that she lost the weight, she has not commented at all. It is hypocritical.
I remember Adele embracing her curvy body and not specifically wanting to lose weight. Now I don't care what she looks like, I love her voice and personality, but it's sad that she may probably get health issues, get depressed because of a damaging restrictive diet.
It's just so sad that when celebrities gain back the weight (or yo-yo), which they inevitably do, the media are all over it with cruel comments. Let's just STOP talking about bodies. Period! (the media...not you, Mia!)
Get one thing straight; if it didn't come from Adele's mouth it's speculation those numbers that you gave out about calories are speculation. Your speculating! The truth is here's what's problematic You're overly consumed with other people's behavior....
True. Adele herself didn't say anything neither did she confirm any of that information. For example a lot of people saying exercise every day is disordered. To me it's not. It's just an active life style. But I mean people have their opinion. They just should stop obsessing other people's weight. It's their body and they can do whatever they want with it in the long run.
@@rumyanaromelova643 well actually it's not recommended because your body need to rest from exercise, this is how you grow muscle. Every sportif and medecin will tell you that. And also there is the problem of addiction that nobody really talk about because sport is see as such a positive things that nobody thinks that being Addict to sport is bad.
@@MinieAnne I know it's not recommended. I am not talking about lifting weights every day though. You can do exercise every day. Even a two hour walk is exercise. Hiking. Biking. Yoga is even considered an exercise. But yes, lifting to built muscle every day isn't recommended. However it all depends on your goals.
I am actually so sad that Adele (one of my absolute favourite artists) felt the need to change her body at all. I don’t know whether it was for health reasons or not so I won’t judge her for it. But it’s heartbreaking to think that even someone as successful and talented as her isn’t immune to the toxicity of diet culture. Her trainer should not be making this wildly restrictive diet mainstream and the media should be more responsible. We have no idea how Adele is really doing because SHE has not said ANYTHING about it. Ugh END RANT.
My thoughts of concern with all the weight loss celebration in media is also that I know many that look good on the outside are also unhealthy and we do not always know that just with a before and after picture. A friend of mine shared recently on Instagram how she used to after finally loosing the weight (after living a whole life as an overweight girl) that she was so restrictive about her diet & worked out almost everyday, and now several years later she is still on a healthy weight but she doesn’t think about food in calories like she used to, doesn’t restrict herself, feel bad about herself if she didn’t hit the gym and if she wants ice cream she has it. The biggest transformation for her you cannot see on the outside and that is easy to forget with reporting like this.
I eat real nutrient dense foods to fuel my body. I don't use food as a form of entertainment. I really enjoy exercise. I make sure that I get plenty of sleep and drink enough water. I never starve. I am thankful to have a fit and healthy body.
I got really excited when I saw your video alert as I’m a subscriber. I’m about to watch it but couldn’t wait to comment. I do find photos of her triggering. Good luck to her but is it bad for me to say that I give it a year before the weight starts to pile back on again? I just don’t think it’s sustainable. I actually think she’s probably had bariatric surgery but of course she won’t admit to it
Sarah Bartlett Interesting point! The ‘source’ of info can’t be trusted as it was someone who only met Adel a few times, many years ago. I also wonder if it’s a heartbreak thing since she’s going through a divorce, and with a young child (and her immense wealth to ‘divide’) that must be unimaginably stressful.
No. 99% of diets fail and people cant keep the weight off for 2 years. When you calorie restrict, your body compensates by lowering your metabolism. If you eat a 1000 calories A-day, your body will burn a 1000 calories A-day. The moment you eat more than that, your body will still store it all as fat. You will spend your entire life having to move in order to keep the weight off. The moment you stop, it will pack on.
My only criticism of Adele loosing weight is the way she has done it. The last photo i saw was her on the beech looking very tired and gaunt, i hope she can healthily maintain her weight and use her status to promote a healthy maintenance plan.
I'm am 47 and have had anorexia...over exercise..restrictive Never fully recovered..still anorexia behaviors..you even young inspires me. I have had this for 25 years and stay just heavy enough to never be committed again.
Media obsesses about weight-> people obsess about weight-> person obsessed about their weight.. repeat cycle. To break the cycle everyone involved has to stop obsessing!
I don't understand the issue i have restricted my caloric intake heavily before and lost about 45-50 pounds, I personally congratulate Adele for the weight loss but hope she returned to a more normal type of eating once she got to a healthy weight.
@@ineedhoezhaha I've maintained a healthy weight which fluctuated by about 5 pounds and no major weight gain for a year now you're kinda wrong there Ig you don't grasp calories in calories out. Unless by normal eating pattern you mean binging on whatever all the time again. The point of it is that when I was fat I ate too much and to lose weight I had to eat too little. I don't have an eating disorder because of dieting and now that I'm normal I eat a maintenance amount of calories not too many not too little
I agree with everything in this video but I have some questions about the statement that a 3 year old needs 1300 kcal per day to survive. I have seen that some nutritionists advise us to calculate our BMR and consume within that amount, depending also on how much we exercise daily. Based on my age/weight/height and the fact that I do very little physical exercise/have a desk job, I received the suggestion to consume around 1200-1300 kcal per day. So do toddlers indeed need to consume as much as me/my 50 year old mother, or are we starving ourselves? If someone could make me be less confused that would be great 😊
Adelina Elena Toddlers are smaller so need less energy to function (BMR), but because they are growing and developing, they need more calories for energy (metabolism) in proportion to adults. So the comparison used in this video isn’t really the most appropriate; hence the confusion that it’s caused.
Thank YOU so !ugh so saying this!!! I have a pretty good social media following& I'm very honest & vocal about my struggle. People have seen me both very healthy & also very I'll from my ED. I aims I fight to regain my health to educate! I will share this with my viewers because you said it best! Thank you 😘💕
why these really restrictive diets are messed up is because they mess up your brain. why to feel hungry if you could just eat to feel like a human and then just move some of it off without pushing yourself too much because you got some energy to move. why bother starting with such a rush if you lose all your life quality in your daily basis and develop further problems, such as chronic hunger and binge eating. one simply can't escape that, it'll follow up. unless one is used to live without normal emotion range, which is also not worth it, because people usually want thin body to enjoy life more i suppose. i've tried this all-raw-green-stuff-life and it's not natural. hence i've always preferred moving over restricting
I understand that being in the public eye is exceedingly difficult and very overwhelming at times. The scrutiny surrounding weight gain/loss alone would drive anyone crazy. I’m just tired of this shameless promotion of restrictive diets by the media concerning celebrities who most definitely have young and impressionable fans. Many of whom don’t have the mental capacity (because of their age) to understand that this way of living is damaging. I don’t even want to think about how many people may have attempted this method of weight loss. It would be more responsible of them to ensure that they’re not sharing details about this insane weight loss regime with the world. They’re making the choice to damage their bodies and psyche; don’t share that information with the world. I know in this case it’s the trainer but Adele should have ensured that she kept quiet about the whole thing. Also, her trainer is complete trash for exposing her to this level of restrictiveness.
I am curious about what you have to say about fighters cutting weight. I have pointed out that it's very disordered. If you have a video on this please guide me to it. Thanks for everything 🙏❤️
I wish I could like this more than once! I think more people need to watch this video just for some basic education around what a healthy relationship with food really is, and how dangerous dipping into any sort of restriction is. Oh but I forgot, if the internet says it then it MUST be normal 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
I dont see the problem with her diet at all. She had a plan and a professional help. I'm sure she knew potential risks that is could lead to.the point is she made a commitment to her self she stuck to it and she has been rewarded with a great result. All the risks you mention aren't definitive resoults as you say if you do this it "could" lead but it doesnt have to. Every day people make risky decisions that "could" impact them negatively but sometimes you just have to do it .
I dislike people no longer about her talent but now her weight and praising her size it's sad. When I saw her weight loss I was concerned for her as it's such a big loss in quick time and then when they went into detail about it I was horrified that a trainer would allow this they should know better.
I had a personal trainer once that “guaranteed” weight loss. He told me to eat 900 calories a day on days I didn’t workout and 1,300 a day on days where I went to the gym. I could see something like panic in his eyes when he told me that. He had to starve me so that I didn’t ruin his 100% success rate. Any client that didn’t lose weight was a huge liability. Restrictive dieting is not the way! I’m now working on moving to a plant-based diet, eating delicious and nutritious food, and intuitively eating instead of following any kind of diet plan. I’m eating healthy to take care of my body now, not to look a certain way. My appearance may or may not change, and I’m going to be ok with either outcome.
Hi Mia. I’m in a horrible dark place where I can’t stop bingeing and purging - I’m not even losing weight just maintaining. I’ve identified my triggers - however there’s a lot of misery and self hatred that I can’t swim out of. I haven’t told my loved ones bc I know they won’t know how to react - I’ve dealt with this for so long I don’t know how to maintain being well. The shitty thing us- sometimes I make myself believe what I’m doing is nt wrong - which is even scarier. I guess what I’m trying to ask is what’s the first step?
Everything in this video ✅ when will they learn how dangerous this is! The narrative is so depressing, repetitive, boring and it's so so sad that such a great talent should be made to believe that her value lies the slightest bit in the size of her body. We want Adele back! For her breathtaking voice and her beautiful personality.
I cannot stand the way the media portrays weight loss as some kind of patronising “she/he is normal now and worthy of admiration, they are no longer a second class citizen...” bs that gets churned out every time a plus size member of the entertainment industry loses weight. I can’t stand the “she/he is so gorgeous now...” what they weren’t before? Or that awkward moment in SATC movie when Samantha Jones had gained 3 kilos or whatever and they all made comments as though she had ended someone’s life. Or when Christina Aguilera embraces her curves and was ridiculed- how disgusting is the media? I also can’t stand the way the media has to have these disgusting shows about weight loss all the time - they don’t show the behind the scenes, the after effects of rapid weight gain, the extreme measures taken by some contestants to lose the weight in order to appease judges who they themselves have admitted are unable to maintain the regimental routines set out by these shows. I think society and the media really needs to change their approach to how to address such issues because instead of dealing with underlying issues they focus on the superficial and that’s never a good approach to take at all 😔
I agree. She looks sickly. This is a very weird situation. I don't ever think that I've seen somebody lose weight and they look worse. She looks unhealthy. She looks emaciated.
I feel like if someone is not speaking publicly about dramatic weight loss, it shouldn’t be celebrated. If they seem to be keeping it a secret and they’re not addressing it, then it could be a health issue (not in every case, some people on fitness/weight loss journeys may just not want tons of attention and that’s fine). Even if the personal trainer had Adele’s consent, she should know better than to 1) put someone on this “diet” and 2) release this info because of how dangerous it is.
Especially considering the fact that she was so vocal about being proud to be fat. Adele always spoke about her wake. She refused to work with people who had an issue with her weight. The so now, for her suddenly to have no comment about it, is just weird
I don’t understand why people are commenting on this video-which is clearly part of a channel that focuses on and promotes eating disorder recovery-and act like it’s okay to tell her or anyone watching what is “right” or “wrong” or “healthy” when it comes to food/weight/exercise/etc. EVERYBODY IS DIFFERENT. One of the largest factors that PRESSURE people to diet, change, or spiral into disordered behavior is the constant misconception that there is a finite definition of “healthy.” Metabolisms differ. BMI is bullshit as no genetic information goes into account. There are no “super foods” or unhealthy foods. A variety of foods is a good thing. Knowing what is healthy for you and altering your diet to match is a good thing. Doing what is ultimately right for YOU is a good thing. And for the people in the comments that are throwing a fit about the “disordered eating” bit, you can partake in disordered eating and not have/develop an eating disorder. I’m not sure why that is so touchy-I’m assuming it has to do with the large stigma surrounding eating disorders and mental health in general-but that’s not an attack on anyone and shouldn’t be met with such criticism and defense. It’s also obvious that people aren’t taking into account that this TH-cam channel IS ABOUT EATING DISORDER RECOVERY. When you’re discounting everything this woman says because you don’t agree and defend weight loss/“healthy” regiments, you’re just discouraging the thousands of people watching this video that are trying to recover or seek help by reinforcing that health is finite and certain health/beauty/BMI/weight/diet standards should be recognized/normalized/followed/met by everyone. That’s my two cents, and I won’t be replying or striking any debates. I do want to reinforce one thing: If you’re watching this and become confused or discouraged, just leave knowing that what is healthy for YOU is okay. You are worth everything, and you can be proud of who you are and what you do. If you’re in recovery or seeking help, I APPLAUD YOU. I’m in recovery myself, and I can affirm that recovery is worth it, and YOU ARE WORTH RECOVERY.
NO ONE IN ADELES TEAM HAS SAID ANY INFORMATION. That woman is trying to get her 5mins of fame out of this. You all are believing anything you read is just beyond me
Given the talent of the individual in question, it's sad that there is so much focus (by the media) on physical appearance. Whether it's weight gain or loss there are so many factors that might be contributing (ie. health issues, relationship issues, fertility issues, addiction issues, etc). Praise or condemnation is so unhelpful and creates an impression that weight gain or loss is objectively "good" or "bad" when they are neither.
If she did eat 1000 cal a day for a week it hasnt harmed her its only a week.if it actually happened....its pure speculation. Zero proof...she was overweight, she lost weight..she maybe incredibly healthy and happy with her life now. stop dragging this through the dirt.
It is NOT 'disordered' eating to skip meals....it is quite correct to eat only when hungry, even if that means skipping meals - it is called intermittent fasting and is the way humans are SUPPOSED to eat.
Growing up I was obese because my parents over fed me and it lead me down a path where I turned to so much processed food and sweet coffees / soft drinks everyday to cope with my mental health. So when I went to the doctor’s and was told I had a minor heart attack that I didn’t even realize I had when I was 16, pre diabetes and high blood pressure I went down a “healthy” path and lost a lot of weight which spiraled into anorexia. After recovery I’ve realized that eating pretty healthfully with treats here and there - I EAT INTUITIVELY , I have been able to maintain my weight and fuel my body and feel amazing daily. Crash diets lead nowhere but to depression or future binging. I am just saying 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I think it’s good that Adele wanted to lose weight but I would hate to see her just going down a bad path. Lots of love. 🙏🏼💟💕
I am overweight after years and years of an eating disorder and then dieting.my doctor asked how many calories I eat in a day and I knew it was a trick question. I am currently eating 2500+ on the minnie Maud method and I knew i couldn't tell him I was eating that amount and I said,I'm eating 2000 calories and I noticed in his report that he sent to the labs for bloodwork that he stated that I was obese due to excess calories and that was after i told him how i got to be overweight.He didnt believe I became overweight due to restricting. He humored me and it was insulting to not be believed or to feel like I'm eating too much and that's why I'm overweight.🙄
Rice Bowl Oh gosh, I’ve had so many similar experiences with drs making assumptions. Did you say anything about the note you saw the dr write? Def have a planned response in future just in case it happens again. It doesn’t need to sound critical or rude, just like “what does this note you made mean?/ please can you explain it to me?” Kinda playing the naive card. On another note it may help to get a referral to a dietician who can help you out and also make more in depth and accurate notes on your file. I wish you well :)
@@SP-kk5nj After that visit,I still tries to explain my situation and he just didnt get it or what I'm trying to do.But,I thought he would actually listen to me and my hisband,but he did not.I guess there's no point in trying anymore with him.I just dont like being looked at like I'm overweight due to stuffing my face ,which isnt true.Thanks for the advice. 🙂
YES! The science and understanding of how this all works (or fails to) is way behind what ED sufferers and dieters know. Doctors are no help in this area and we do better not disclosing too much. Which is sad really, they could learn from us.
M C Maybe that’s reason to disclose more? If they start hearing the same thing they can (hopefully) begin to see patterns? There is science that shows that prolonged dieting/restriction slows your metabolism, which I think is my personal problem. But how do I get past that without spiking my weight? Drs just tell me that because I’m underweight I need less, but I know that’s not the whole story. I’m stuck on less than half the recommended cals for my age and sex, and I’m also a dancer so am super active. Some advice is to just go with it and eat the ‘correct’ amount but that will make me gain like crazy. Even ed units don’t make me do that so???
@@SP-kk5nj Depends on the doctor but most dont listen or believe. There's no real answer is there? I am just watching the science catch up slowly and one day doctors will be familiar with how complex it all is, the role of hormones etc. Of course we should just eat enough, and gain if we gain, but that's a big ask for dancers and frankly anyone. There is so much emphasis on ED being 'not about the weight', which is not true in my opinion. There is going to be a bigger resistance to recovery in people who know they will become and remain big, and those who will stabilise at a slim size. I'm in your situation too and it absolutely sucks.
Can I ask a question as someone who knows that I suffer from disordered eating, but cannot always tell in others. Disorder means our attitude, our mental state. So I understand that even though a lot of what I am doing is "healthy" now, my mind still goes places that are still not. And that is something I need to work on. While this sort of extreme diet is clearly not healthy, if it doesn't change the mental state of the person on the diet, is the person's eating considered disordered? (and I fully appreciate and understand your concern in this video being about the message that it sends to people, not about Adele's state per se. -- also, if this is a comment that doesn't comply with what you consider safe, please delete it!)
Omg - another sensitive video, people talking about people that they don’t know is crazy, the energy you put in making this vid should be put into your family. That woman doesn’t care what you think 😭
She was losing weight since she started her musical career, with every album you can see the change from 2009 to 2012 it wasn't too much of a change, on 2015 she lost much more pounds and now well she had lost a lot.
No one knows what Adele actually did to lose the weight. There is no confirmation that this trainer was in fact her personal trainer. She might have found a perfectly healthy way to lose weight, over a significant amount of time. So to come out and say she has an eating disorder is a very bold thing to say, Because you don’t know her personally. And no one knows why she lost weight her life might have depended on it. Spreading information about a person that is most likely false is so toxic and making okay for the media to do it also.
I can’t imagine a 3 year old needing 1300 calories though, considering that a lot of the times grown women who are between 4’11-5’1 can have a BMI as low as 1200 calories from what I’ve read, although please correct me if I’m wrong.
Meag 3 year olds need more calories for growth as they’re growing a lot every day. Women of that height usually are more around the1300-1400 bmr anyway, but that’s at rest. Every bit of movement like walking around your house or getting in the shower burns more. Some people of that height maintain healthy weights on 2500 if they’re active and have a lot of muscle mass
Cindy X I’m 4’11-5’0 and a young person. According to my Apple Watch my BMR is around 1250 calories. I know the watch isn’t 100% accurate but it is pretty close.
Linda Elizabeth Of course you can lose weight, people do lose weight in a healthy way. I think you missed the point of that video. The point it not to do it so restrictively because a 1000 calories a day is just unhealthy and it’s undereating. And it leads to both mental and physical health problems. And exactly, people I larger bodies suffer from eating disorders. Eating disorders are not determined by your BMI. You can be in the obese range according to BMI and experience all kinds of ED, including atypical anorexia nervosa.
S P I said ATYPICAL anorexia, not anorexia. come on, this is so old school, we should already move past this because the knowledge is so outdated, you have exact same behaviors, restricting, abusing your body. Just because somebody is within the obese range for example doesn’t mean they don’t have an eating disorder!!!! People need to realize that. In fact ALL of the people I know in the larger bodies are all the time on crash diets and they restrict heavily. I wasn’t below 17,5 BMI when I restricted like CRAZY and exercises for hours and hours daily. My gyn said I looked amazing and should keep up running marathons because it’s healthy for me. In the meantime I was missing my period for a year.
Thank you for this video! It helped me, I found myself seeking out Adele transformation pics and articles to find out what she did and then from this video realized that was not healthy. Caloric needs vary greatly from someone’s height, age, etc. but 1,000 is not enough for any full grown adult.
Camille It can be. It depends on your BMR, your weight, size and physical activity, as well as health issues. Personally I gain weight if I have 1000 cals a day as my metabolism is fu*ked from years of ed. There are other issues that cause the same outcome for different circumstances too.
@@SP-kk5nj Same here, 1000 is maintenance unless extremely active. I'd like to know how our poor bodies do it when it's supposed to be scientifically impossible! Still, I know I'd be better of just accepting the gain that came with eating a normal amount of food
All foods? Your body doesn’t really need, flour(main ingredient in bread), or dairy(cheese, milk/ yogurt is kinda good but still) and sugar. Why wouldn’t you restrict those? From what people are saying on online, 1000 calories a day isn’t meant for daily living, it’s meant to trigger extreme weight loss. (It’s only for 10days and it’s funny how you don’t mention this in the video)
I don’t watch your channel, but my guess is by what you’re saying that you’ve never been obese. Being obese and working hard to lose weight can happen without being disordered. Eating 1000 calories a day may be something someone who is anorexic would do, but it may also be an appropriate way to jump start weight loss.... really only the person themselves can judge the emotional aspects of it, and the people close to them. Good for Adele for making steps to get healthy, and hopefully she maintains with a healthy outlook.
Oof, sorry to tell you Kat, but I have been. I've been at various different weights and experienced a few different eating disorders. I even restricted at those higher weights and it was still dangerous (I was celebrated for it), even though I didn't fall into the anorexia diagnosis yet. Strongly encourage you to do some deeper research about eating disorders and disordered eating.
What Mia Did Next well I am happy for you that you found healing. I still disagree completely with you being able to judge her motives, and think that although shedding light on things like this potentially triggering other people is good... I find it sad that you view it only as negative without knowing her process of it. Best wishes
@@katbarronhome It's... not about her process. I stated in the video that she has neither confirmed or denied whether the diet info is even accurate. The video is a critique of the personal trainer who chose to share dangerous diet advice, as substantiated by various dietitians and medical professionals who also confirm that it is not sustainable and potentially harmful.
I'm very angry about the low numbers I burn more than that I'oing nothing and im classified as boreder underweight.ive have moderate to severe hypothyroidism I was surprised wasn't even mid weight fir build. Id no energy to move never had obesity and had almose no exercise slow walks I miss have the energy to run. Runninh it's not often due to violent headaches my friebds are sad I can't due to illness severe headaches. I've normal tests. I run 2x in a few weeks walk 60 minutes every second day. Mias estimate is definitely likely to be correct you can't safely eat that level of carbs with training most likely it can cause shortness off breathe on low carb. I'd bad headache so tried keto but im ot offay with this diet of 1000 calories but low carb?;not for me. Not saying it can't help but less than 1200 no. Low carbs. Tried it twice. Shortness of breathe and insomnia. Don't think the shaming is needed though I've put people in their place more than once for insulting my shape but I agree with Mia. . it I think the lifestyle is more than a bit severe I'd very low blood pressure atclose enough to that. I burn at east 500 calories along with 1200 had metabolic test at least 1700 and im a very short lady. Upset about this article.
It's really annoying that the TH-cam algorithm can't distinguish between diet-culture promoting content and diet-culture critiquing content. Every time I finish marking all the promoting suggested videos as "not interested", I watch a video from Mia or someone else critiquing diet-culture and all that dirt appears straight back in my suggested videos. It makes it really hard for people to access important content without exposing themselves to a bunch of triggering shit.
thanks for this. it always irritates me in a different way when i see celebrities doing these diets. like .. they have more than enough money to get plastic surgery IF they really feel like they need to "perfect" their body. i understand its their job to look good and all (society's expectations) .. not to promote anything here but why is it okay to starve yourself to become skinnier but when someone gets liposuction for the same reason its problematic (according to society i mean)? at the end of the day body positivity is the goal but idk .. if i was a celebrity and felt the absolute need to alter my body size/shape, dieting wouldnt be the first option. my point is that diet culture is so crazy that it tells us being skinny is the goal but that at the same time tryna achieve that unrealistic goal through "unnatural" methods (bc the goal isnt natural or realistic either) like plastic surgery is bad and we all have to go on diets and work out.. as if people dont die from these things. just a thought
Didn't Adele say she wanted to lose weight for health - not for society's beauty standards? Health-wise liposuction wouldn't affect the adipose tissue surrounding the organs, which is said to be very dangerous. Also, being a type of surgery it must have risks.
Jupither Danach did you watch the video? eating 1000cals a day isnt healthy. ppl underestimate the health risks that diets pose bc ppl associate being skinny with being health(ier)y. and ofc surgeries have risks but they are done from doctors under guidelines etc therefore less risky than restricting. when i was "dieting" i lost a lot of hair and didnt get my periods for three months. how is that not unhealthy but getting plastic surgery, which are legit surgeries done by doctors, are ? you proved my point with your comment
@@lunali7209 I never said that I agree with restricting calories as low as that! Not at all. Not any diet is a super-restrictive crash diet though. Aiming for a small calorie deficit, definitely above your basal metabolic rate, it is possible for many people to safely lose weight. Possibly even with the help of a dietician, i.e. profesional help. Clearly this does not apply to everyone. For someone who has struggled with extreme restriction in the past, it is probably not a good idea. I am sorry if my comment upset you. That was definitely not my goal.
Jupither Danach its fine! i understand what you mean however i dont believe in ANY diet and dont believe that even the most "sensible" diets work. after reading the intuitive eating handbook and seeing all the data i now know that even the most "sensible" diets dont really work
This TH-camr should have some control over the ads on this channel. There are awful ads for obsessive weight loss programs, some directed specifically at women and their problem "tummy fat." My God!! ( that's how my eating disorder started years ago). Also some guy who focuses on the "right" foods to eat to lose weight. This is VERY sick to have these ads here. Please be aware of this. It seems VERY dangerous and sick on the part of advertisers to me.
Not to be judgemental, but lets just wait and see how long she's able to sustain this for, and what happens when and if she gains it back. That is awful that thats out in the media. its stories about diets and celeb diets, like this that was out in the media when I was younger than triggered my eating disorders when I was young.
i wish my concerns about this video i had when i saw the community post for it weren't validated. unfortunately they are very much so. i don't think anyone AT ALL should be commenting on Adele's weightloss unless they have every nugget of information about her diet and what she is eating. adele did come out and say she was going through weightloss for her own health and to be around for her children in the future. adele was very overweight previously and losing weight to get healthy means being in a caloric deficit, that's how weight loss works and it's not unhealthy to restrict certain foods, especially extremely unhealthy or inflammatory foods. maybe coming from and eating disorder past this seems like an alarming thing to do because, for you, restricting is an unhealthy behavior, that is perfectly valid and ok to feel for you but you can't apply it to other situations if you don't know the complete set of facts and we don't. we don't know what the rest of her diet consists of, we only know her trainer came out and tried to shill a weightloss system in the manner that many trainers or fitness influencers try to do. we don't know how intense adeles fitness routine is, we don't know if adjustments were made to her diet all we know are two things and that is not enough to make any conclusions on. healthy weightloss works because of a healthy calorie deficit and raising your calorie intake to a maintenance level as you get closer to your goal weight. we can't and absolutely shouldn't make any judgement because adeles trainer decided to go to the media to try and shill a fad diet for a quick buck and i'm slightly disappointed that this is what this video has come to. we are shaming people who are getting to a healthy weight in a way that suits them because their trainer, not them, but THEIR TRAINER went to the media to shill a weightloss system. next time if you don't have all the facts instead of just what one person said maybe hold off on making a video like this. i agree with calling fad diets out for everything they really are but not in relation to a person who you don't have all the facts on in terms of their diet or what they are doing.
Hate to tell you this Rachel, but we actually agree on the point you raised about unhelpful info being disseminated about celeb diets. This video is about what the trainer shared and how the media has reported on it. In other words, that Adele has been used as a vehicle to spread bad diet advice. Also stated that she hasn’t confirmed anything, hasn’t publicised the diet and I never made any judgements about her weight loss/health/appearance.
@@WhatMiaDidNext awesome!!! i guess looking at the content with a different frame of thought (i had to lose weight as i was becoming housebound to genetic conditions causing excess weight gain and excess weight exacerbating my conditions) and honestly i find it so interesting how i percieved the video coming from, what i guess is, the opposite side of the spectrum. i thought i had recalled adele very early on when her weightloss made the news saying that her health and family was a big motivator for her, i could be wrong though, but ever since i had only heard assuptions about the method used and the fad diet etc. throughout my own weight gain and loss journey first it was i was getting unhealthily fluffy and then it was am i turning annorexic and a lot of speculation from my peers before i got into strength training and running and it was the most frustrating thing to have to hear those things from everyone around me since it appeared they hadn't considered weather i was just going for healthy and strong. i had a lot of help from two very talented and caring trainers, they're the types who would rather be slapped than shill fad diets, so it's frustrating hearing and seeing others give the health and fitness industry a bad name and lead others to think they have to try and follow some unattainable set of standards that will put then tens steps back and in a worse situation. what annoys me more is that once upon a time i would have been the exact type of vulnerable person that could have fallen for that kind of marketing and i firmly believe it was a serious stroke of luck (and liking food far too much) that i didn't end up persuing what those kinds of influencers sell.
Everyone has been asking what did she do to lose weight, but maybe the question should be why she’s lost it....? She’s a human being, a mother going through a divorce. It could be a number of things, maybe stress. Albeit positive or negative, why should it matter to us? She can do her 🙌🏽👏🏽 and we should just hope she’s ok mentally and physically 👍🏽
She looks absolutely fantastic. Very sexy and very healthy. Good job Adele! Such an inspiring thing she has done. Well done. Don't listen to the jealous haters.
@@ineedhoez she looks much better. She is much more healthy and attractive than before. She was hard to look at before. She is now absolutely beautiful! Stunning! Wow! Like I said... Adele, don't let the haters bring you down. They are jealous, lazy and angry. It's not men that are hating on her, it's jealous women that are trying to bring her down. Pathetic! You go girl, Adele! So proud of you!
I don't like the _look_ of her weightloss. She looks too gaunt and it doesn't look like the healthy kinda weightloss. It just looks like she starved herself. I don't think shell maintain it in the longterm.
theres no "sensible" diet. die idea that doing a diet for a longer time will guarantee life long weight loss is a myth. even if you restricted for five years, as soon as you go back to eating normally after you will still gain back weight (plus more. if anything, long term diets may ruin ones health and psyche even more as it puts the body through the "starvation mode" phase for a super long time. the longer your restriction, the longer your recovery
Of course she won't. Shall be fat again within 2 years. 99% of diets fail because they lower your metabolic rate. The moment you stop exercising like crazy and eat food, you will get fat. Your body is super smart. Weight loss is very unnatural to the body.
Geez the 1,000 calories is for 6 days. If it's not for you keep moving. Dietician like doctors teach and inform what they've learned, it doesn't mean is the absolute truth to the matter. Media well that's another thing you either smart or gullible.
Came out she did it to be around longer and healthier for her son. It was going to an extreme and I hope it doesnt have long term effects on her relationship with food or her metabolism (like the contestants from biggest loser).
Yeah that's just like the media coverage of Joaquin Phoenix when he lost all that weight in a clearly unhealthy, disordered way for Joker. And he didn't even want to talk about it as it was pretty obvious anyway. Drove me insane, just like with Adele now. It's completely irresponsible
I honestly see nothing wrong with just green juices. I do that from time to time to detox the body. Fasting for a short period and juicing is a great way to cleanse the system. I had a look at the meals on this diet it looks really healthy and delicious.
The problem is that she looks worse. She looks unrecognizable as well. Also she was so proud to be fat and now she has zero to say about her weight. Hypocrite.
Restricted eating isn't an eating disorder at all, if you're overweight and you eat 1000 calories you're not gonna starve, you use your own body fat for energy and once you get lean then you maintain its only a crash diet if you dont have discipline to maintain anything is sustainable if youre disciplined
No. If you are underweight and you continue to eat extremely low calories cos of some sort of body dysmorphia then yh, its an eating disorder and its not healthy. If you are overweight and you cut calories and change your diet choosing healthier food choices and then exercise... It is not a disorder at all, you are just becoming more health conscious and thats a good thing. I've personally restricted eating lost weight and never crashed and gained weight back. I've also exercised on low to 0 calories, i didnt lose energy i had more energy cos when you dont eat your liver produces ketones that breakdown your own body fat for energy and i increased my metabolism from restricted eating and fasting so i can eat more calories now than before and not gain weight. I'm confused to your skepticism as a "dietitian" to restricted eating or time restricted eating (fasting) cos of all its health benefits not just weight loss thats more superficial, probably the least important health benefit. Theres numerous, , reduce risk of diabetes, brain, heart function, improve blood sugar, blood pressure, autophagy (cleaning out damaged cells in the body) This has all been proven by science on numerous studies.
It's not my opinion mate, it's clinical information. You don't seem to understand the distinction between an eating disorder (a diagnosed illness) and disordered eating (a behaviour/set of behaviours which don't necessarily equate to an eating disorder). This might help you: www.nedc.com.au/eating-disorders/eating-disorders-explained/disordered-eating-and-dieting/
"Disordered eating" is just a nice way of saying eating disorder, or behaviour thats on the path to an eating disorder i read that article, thats pretty much what its saying ... And i can refute most of that article from my own personal experience and others who restrict food, i could also find thosands of studies that support my narrative its all relative... and its easy to cherry pick what supports your opinion I understand women who have these behaviours and over exercise and under eat cos of self image and the stress of media and they can develop bulimia and anorexic over time but thats a small minority compared to the general population who restict certain foods or fast and exercise for health benefits cos those people with those insecurities of body image are "disordered eating" for all the wrong reasons due to mental illness caused by external factors i already mentioned not with motivation to improve health. Anything to excess can be dangerous even drinking water, I'm sure there's plenty of women who have disordered eating because of the stress of social media and self image, even some men, but people who change their lifestyle, eat healthier and exercises alot for health not just body image cant be labelled "disordered eaters" there has to be a distinction between the two, to me "disordered eating" doesn't sound like there is.
I understand your argument, and i respect your opinion, but cos of my personal experience of what you could call "disordered eating" cos i restrict foods and eat at certain times also exercise 6 days a week not cos of any kind of insecurity, i had no insecurity when i was unhealthy and inactive , i do it cos it makes me feel better, so we'll have to agree to disagree.
Media needs to stop being so obsessed with celebrities weight
Totally agree.
Media isn't too bright for the most part - it's superficial, materialistic, and doesn't know much more than what they technically see - so that's what they talk about, allowing people to think it's so very important, too.
true.I feel like maybe things are starting to change
@@grantarchibald3100 get bent mate and get out of the comments peddling bs diet solutions.
They aren't, they emphasize beauty not weight. Adelle losing weight is a good thing and the media has all the right in the world to share her achievement. People who think it's problematic are jealous.
The problem is not Adele loosing weight, the problem is the way the media is looking at it. People are looking at it being portrayed as a correct thing to do. Thank you for doing this video. Real information needs to be put out.
Absolutely! Adele is just another celebrity who is being used as a vehicle to spread bad diet advice.
a little bit of everything yes, we don’t know all the facts. We don’t know how long it actually took her or if she even is doing what the trainer is saying. I do think the media is celebrating it in a disordered way and normalizing disordered behavior (what’s new?), but that has nothing to do with Adele.
It is the correct thing to do lmao if you’re overweight the best thing to do is come down to a healthy weight and vice versa
@@kefkapalazzo1 🤫 sshhh
@@clubafterlife no. I don't want people to have a chance of dying from heart attack. You act like what he said is wrong. The reason it is correct is because your body at weights not about 200 actually works better. Who would've known. The video is about the negative critique of her weight loss by the media. But this should not create an idea for people to not at least acknowledge the fact that it is correct. Shhhh is something you do when something is just wrong or unneeded. And seeing as it wasn't wrong and that people were blatantly saying it was fine to be overweight, then I think it was intended to be informative.
The person giving out information is NOT HER TRAINER. That woman had one session with Adele in 2013. Her trainer is Pete Gerasimou and has been since 2014 he works at this gym in London and he not ONCE has discussed Adele.
The excessive media coverage/focus on her body/weight has been driving me CRAZY 😡 - thank you SO much for addressing this Mia!!!!!! Was so keen for this video!!!!!! 👏❤️
Me too Chrissy, me too!
I know! I hope Adele tries to stay away from reading it all. That poor woman must be terrified if she gains a couple of pounds back and is photographed. Media headlines being "Adele falls off diet wagon" or something ridiculous...this just isn't sustainable.
Icon of the off the shoulder tops!!!
Nina Orešković I literally bought an off the shoulder top because of Mia
The fact that 1,000 calories a day is considered very restrictive really puts it into perspective just how much I’m in denial that my current caloric is, in fact, NOT normal or healthy in any way.
I mean I’m still probably not going to go into recovery any time soon. But it makes me realize why my therapist is so concerned.
I completely agree. Considering the fact that a 2 year old child needs 1200 calories to function, it really puts it into perspective.
I ate somewhere around 1000 calories and maybe a little less somedaysfor quite sometime and since I had successfully dieted a few years before that I had lowered my metabolism and over 10 years I put on 100 pounds trying to lose the 20 I had kept off for 5 years .I had no idea that running my body into the ground for the last 33years would lead to me being obese.Maybe addressing your problem when you are young might be the best thing for you to hopefully not go through what my body has gone through.Its still a concept I dont get that you can become obese all while dieting and exercising .I didnt do it on purpose, I thought I was supposed to diet to lose weight.I wish you good luck.
Rice Bowl that was a very helpful and sweet comment! You are a beautiful person 🌻
@@amyevans5273Thank you. I hope it helps anyone contemplating recovery.😘
Joanne Bayly except if you’re fat you can get the necessary energy from the excess weight. That’s the whole point. You guys are now disagreeing with experts. If you’re obese and inactive, 1200 is plenty
I really wish I could watch this video because they are always so well done by you, but I’m taking your warning from the start seriously to protect myself right now. I will come back to it when I get over this rough patch thank you for looking out for our best interests as always mia 💖💖
Always put your own recovery first.
Adele has been losing weight since 2018 and has since 2019 been going through a difficult divorce. Everyone just needs to mind their business and let people live their lives
Ellie Gaba she’s a celebrity there’s no privacy
@@italianbeans877 that's like saying someone's fat so they deserve no respect
2:42 "exercise every day problematic"... what? I exercise pretty much every day. I am an athlete as my job and I eat plenty and am in excellent health. I am very lean but I have never had any food problems or health problems.. so why is this problematic? We train 6 days and on the 7th I take it easy but I have to move or I get twitchy.. why is this demonized?
li vin Mia is referring to Adele’s speculated weight loss regime; consuming limited calories (as the 1000 amount mentioned in the video) combined with everyday, possibly
strenuous exercise is detrimental to the human body; perhaps not immediately, but sooner than later it takes a toll REGARDLESS of age.
li vin
Totally agree. Exercising everyday is not problematic per se. I train almost everyday for pleasure, because I love it. I am lean but not skinny and I have a very healthy relationship with food and exercise.
@Amma Bee even if you don't exercise eating less than minimum 2000 sounds problematic.. thats the issue not healthy exercise
@Amma Bee First sure it's going to end in disaster
Adele never told the media in her own words how she lost weight , so all this is speculation. The trainer may or not be telling the truth.
She did by now...and it is not as portrayed here.
Hi Mia! Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos. I was in a really bad mindset regarding my weight and looks just about a year ago, where I would go as far as eating less than 100 calories a day. I watched your videos during that time, and it really helped me to slow down my illness and get myself back to a healthy mindset and eating patterns. Lots of love.
Great video Mia!! I remember in the depths of my eating disorder I would purposely pick up magazines that had this kind of media coverage of celebrity diets and then try to copy whatever it was that the celebs were doing in the hope of losing weight. At the time I didn't think there was anything wrong with what the media was doing or what I was doing. It's only now I'm recovered to I realise how ridiculous it all was... and how damaging to those in a vulnerable position xx
I don't pay attention to media. That fixes everything!
Media is a cancer for real. Skinny or not leave these folks alone. Let them live!
Luv that
Get one thing straight; if it didn't come from Adele's mouth it's speculation those numbers that you gave out about calories are speculation.
Your speculating!
The truth is here's what's problematic You're overly consumed with other people's behavior....
👏👍yep😎
Thank you! I was reading about this topic and thinking the same thing. It actually made me realize how much progress I’ve made in recovery, because I was able to call out the bs pretty quickly. Definitely could be harmful for people early on in recovery though, so I definitely agree that the media needs to be more responsible.
People took her weight loss too personal. It's not problematic to celebrate her weight loss, because she was in an unhealthy range before. However i agree that her weight loss program was too restrictive, but I don't think that automaticly makes her behave or think in disorderd ways. Crash diets are not a good way to lose weight in a healthy way
Thank you so much for this refresher. I’ve been going through a rough patch getting caught up in “what should be” and “what I should look like” but this was what I needed to hear. In the end, thanks for helping me escape my ED voice. I needed it
"just because something is common doesn't mean it's normal" is a great sentence. this can be applied to so many areas of our culture. i wish we could change this world into one in which we can finally truly be human.
Thank you for posting this!!! I saw a photo of Adele and an article about her weight loss and told my roommate and she said "wow, good for her". I immediately was like "well, an 100 llb weight-loss is a lot of weight and I'm concerned about what went into this regiment". I was very saddened by the media's reaction to this diet and I was very worried for Adele's mental and physical health. We know from scientific research that a weight-loss this large, and a regiment this restrictive leads to HA, heart problems, and serious mental health problems. Thank you for addressing this like an actual human being concerned about another person's health!!
why do celebrity trainers always feel the need to employ these ridiculous crash diets? adele was overweight- she could have lost weight through just making healthier choices and a moderate calorie deficit.
Money?
Emuna Bee what “money”? how is she profiting of her diet?
@@niraisatsana the trainer is.
I wasn’t aware of this, I do follow the media. KPOP is more concerning. I’m leaving this comment before the calorie counts because I’m in a bad place. I’m sure this was a good video
If someone makes a change in their life, Adele for example; loses some weight and she’s happy about it, she worked hard to do it and feels accomplished (I’m sure) The media celebrating that is not playing into some agenda.
Yes, thank you. If you were overweight as she was and want to lose weight and you work hard. Great. Celebrate it! It's good someone put work into themselves. They're just obsessed over someone else's weight. Disappointing.
Adele spent a shit ton of time talking about how she was fat and proud. Now that she lost the weight, she has not commented at all. It is hypocritical.
I remember Adele embracing her curvy body and not specifically wanting to lose weight. Now I don't care what she looks like, I love her voice and personality, but it's sad that she may probably get health issues, get depressed because of a damaging restrictive diet.
She isn't hating this video is about how restrictive some diets can be and how they are in fact, not healthy
It's called thin on the outside fat on the inside!!! There are more metabolically sick skinny people then there are metabolically sick fat people.
It's just so sad that when celebrities gain back the weight (or yo-yo), which they inevitably do, the media are all over it with cruel comments. Let's just STOP talking about bodies. Period! (the media...not you, Mia!)
Get one thing straight; if it didn't come from Adele's mouth it's speculation those numbers that you gave out about calories are speculation.
Your speculating!
The truth is here's what's problematic You're overly consumed with other people's behavior....
True. Adele herself didn't say anything neither did she confirm any of that information. For example a lot of people saying exercise every day is disordered. To me it's not. It's just an active life style. But I mean people have their opinion. They just should stop obsessing other people's weight. It's their body and they can do whatever they want with it in the long run.
@@rumyanaromelova643 well actually it's not recommended because your body need to rest from exercise, this is how you grow muscle. Every sportif and medecin will tell you that.
And also there is the problem of addiction that nobody really talk about because sport is see as such a positive things that nobody thinks that being Addict to sport is bad.
@@MinieAnne I know it's not recommended. I am not talking about lifting weights every day though. You can do exercise every day. Even a two hour walk is exercise. Hiking. Biking. Yoga is even considered an exercise. But yes, lifting to built muscle every day isn't recommended. However it all depends on your goals.
I am actually so sad that Adele (one of my absolute favourite artists) felt the need to change her body at all. I don’t know whether it was for health reasons or not so I won’t judge her for it. But it’s heartbreaking to think that even someone as successful and talented as her isn’t immune to the toxicity of diet culture. Her trainer should not be making this wildly restrictive diet mainstream and the media should be more responsible. We have no idea how Adele is really doing because SHE has not said ANYTHING about it. Ugh END RANT.
Thank you 🙏🏻 Mia a breath of fresh air, logic and reason, Well Done and keep up the great work 👍🏻 ♥️🙏🏻
My thoughts of concern with all the weight loss celebration in media is also that I know many that look good on the outside are also unhealthy and we do not always know that just with a before and after picture.
A friend of mine shared recently on Instagram how she used to after finally loosing the weight (after living a whole life as an overweight girl) that she was so restrictive about her diet & worked out almost everyday, and now several years later she is still on a healthy weight but she doesn’t think about food in calories like she used to, doesn’t restrict herself, feel bad about herself if she didn’t hit the gym and if she wants ice cream she has it. The biggest transformation for her you cannot see on the outside and that is easy to forget with reporting like this.
I eat real nutrient dense foods to fuel my body. I don't use food as a form of entertainment. I really enjoy exercise. I make sure that I get plenty of sleep and drink enough water. I never starve. I am thankful to have a fit and healthy body.
Very well said, Thank you so much im so thankful for you and your channel and I have been since I started recovering. You are consistently amazing!
Great video, love the message
Thanks Kirstie!
Yes!! Thanks for uploading on such a good topic!
So welcome!
Hey! I was wondering if you could film a video on amenorrhea and how to get your period back. Would be a massive help. Love your channel!
Zoe Bartsch That would be something I’d be interested in hearing too.
Eat.
I got really excited when I saw your video alert as I’m a subscriber. I’m about to watch it but couldn’t wait to comment. I do find photos of her triggering. Good luck to her but is it bad for me to say that I give it a year before the weight starts to pile back on again? I just don’t think it’s sustainable. I actually think she’s probably had bariatric surgery but of course she won’t admit to it
Sarah Bartlett Interesting point! The ‘source’ of info can’t be trusted as it was someone who only met Adel a few times, many years ago. I also wonder if it’s a heartbreak thing since she’s going through a divorce, and with a young child (and her immense wealth to ‘divide’) that must be unimaginably stressful.
No. 99% of diets fail and people cant keep the weight off for 2 years. When you calorie restrict, your body compensates by lowering your metabolism. If you eat a 1000 calories A-day, your body will burn a 1000 calories A-day. The moment you eat more than that, your body will still store it all as fat. You will spend your entire life having to move in order to keep the weight off. The moment you stop, it will pack on.
My only criticism of Adele loosing weight is the way she has done it.
The last photo i saw was her on the beech looking very tired and gaunt, i hope she can healthily maintain her weight and use her status to promote a healthy maintenance plan.
I'm am 47 and have had anorexia...over exercise..restrictive
Never fully recovered..still anorexia behaviors..you even young inspires me. I have had this for 25 years and stay just heavy enough to never be committed again.
Unless she finds a healthy diet she will yo-yo.
And her body will suffer just like Janet Jackson's one did 🤔
Karine Decker or Luther Vandross😞
Yes,this is my body.i am 46 and a 100 pounds over weight.
Media obsesses about weight-> people obsess about weight-> person obsessed about their weight.. repeat cycle. To break the cycle everyone involved has to stop obsessing!
I don't understand the issue i have restricted my caloric intake heavily before and lost about 45-50 pounds, I personally congratulate Adele for the weight loss but hope she returned to a more normal type of eating once she got to a healthy weight.
You do realize that as soon as you return to a normal eating pattern, you will immediately get fat again?
@@ineedhoezhaha I've maintained a healthy weight which fluctuated by about 5 pounds and no major weight gain for a year now you're kinda wrong there Ig you don't grasp calories in calories out. Unless by normal eating pattern you mean binging on whatever all the time again. The point of it is that when I was fat I ate too much and to lose weight I had to eat too little. I don't have an eating disorder because of dieting and now that I'm normal I eat a maintenance amount of calories not too many not too little
I am so greatful for this video. Its something that is really useful.
I agree with everything in this video but I have some questions about the statement that a 3 year old needs 1300 kcal per day to survive. I have seen that some nutritionists advise us to calculate our BMR and consume within that amount, depending also on how much we exercise daily. Based on my age/weight/height and the fact that I do very little physical exercise/have a desk job, I received the suggestion to consume around 1200-1300 kcal per day. So do toddlers indeed need to consume as much as me/my 50 year old mother, or are we starving ourselves? If someone could make me be less confused that would be great 😊
Adelina Elena Toddlers are smaller so need less energy to function (BMR), but because they are growing and developing, they need more calories for energy (metabolism) in proportion to adults. So the comparison used in this video isn’t really the most appropriate; hence the confusion that it’s caused.
Thank YOU so !ugh so saying this!!! I have a pretty good social media following& I'm very honest & vocal about my struggle. People have seen me both very healthy & also very I'll from my ED. I aims I fight to regain my health to educate! I will share this with my viewers because you said it best! Thank you 😘💕
Thank you SOOO much for this video.
why these really restrictive diets are messed up is because they mess up your brain. why to feel hungry if you could just eat to feel like a human and then just move some of it off without pushing yourself too much because you got some energy to move. why bother starting with such a rush if you lose all your life quality in your daily basis and develop further problems, such as chronic hunger and binge eating. one simply can't escape that, it'll follow up. unless one is used to live without normal emotion range, which is also not worth it, because people usually want thin body to enjoy life more i suppose. i've tried this all-raw-green-stuff-life and it's not natural. hence i've always preferred moving over restricting
I understand that being in the public eye is exceedingly difficult and very overwhelming at times. The scrutiny surrounding weight gain/loss alone would drive anyone crazy. I’m just tired of this shameless promotion of restrictive diets by the media concerning celebrities who most definitely have young and impressionable fans. Many of whom don’t have the mental capacity (because of their age) to understand that this way of living is damaging. I don’t even want to think about how many people may have attempted this method of weight loss. It would be more responsible of them to ensure that they’re not sharing details about this insane weight loss regime with the world. They’re making the choice to damage their bodies and psyche; don’t share that information with the world. I know in this case it’s the trainer but Adele should have ensured that she kept quiet about the whole thing. Also, her trainer is complete trash for exposing her to this level of restrictiveness.
THANK YOU.
YOU’RE WELCOME.
I am curious about what you have to say about fighters cutting weight. I have pointed out that it's very disordered. If you have a video on this please guide me to it. Thanks for everything 🙏❤️
I wish I could like this more than once! I think more people need to watch this video just for some basic education around what a healthy relationship with food really is, and how dangerous dipping into any sort of restriction is. Oh but I forgot, if the internet says it then it MUST be normal 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
I dont see the problem with her diet at all. She had a plan and a professional help. I'm sure she knew potential risks that is could lead to.the point is she made a commitment to her self she stuck to it and she has been rewarded with a great result. All the risks you mention aren't definitive resoults as you say if you do this it "could" lead but it doesnt have to. Every day people make risky decisions that "could" impact them negatively but sometimes you just have to do it .
Fantastic video & content - couldn’t agree more!
I dislike people no longer about her talent but now her weight and praising her size it's sad.
When I saw her weight loss I was concerned for her as it's such a big loss in quick time and then when they went into detail about it I was horrified that a trainer would allow this they should know better.
This is exactly why she hasn't spoke about her diet publicly .
I had a personal trainer once that “guaranteed” weight loss. He told me to eat 900 calories a day on days I didn’t workout and 1,300 a day on days where I went to the gym. I could see something like panic in his eyes when he told me that. He had to starve me so that I didn’t ruin his 100% success rate. Any client that didn’t lose weight was a huge liability. Restrictive dieting is not the way! I’m now working on moving to a plant-based diet, eating delicious and nutritious food, and intuitively eating instead of following any kind of diet plan. I’m eating healthy to take care of my body now, not to look a certain way. My appearance may or may not change, and I’m going to be ok with either outcome.
Isn’t this also considered media?
Hi Mia. I’m in a horrible dark place where I can’t stop bingeing and purging - I’m not even losing weight just maintaining. I’ve identified my triggers - however there’s a lot of misery and self hatred that I can’t swim out of. I haven’t told my loved ones bc I know they won’t know how to react - I’ve dealt with this for so long I don’t know how to maintain being well. The shitty thing us- sometimes I make myself believe what I’m doing is nt wrong - which is even scarier. I guess what I’m trying to ask is what’s the first step?
Everything in this video ✅ when will they learn how dangerous this is! The narrative is so depressing, repetitive, boring and it's so so sad that such a great talent should be made to believe that her value lies the slightest bit in the size of her body. We want Adele back! For her breathtaking voice and her beautiful personality.
I cannot stand the way the media portrays weight loss as some kind of patronising “she/he is normal now and worthy of admiration, they are no longer a second class citizen...” bs that gets churned out every time a plus size member of the entertainment industry loses weight. I can’t stand the “she/he is so gorgeous now...” what they weren’t before? Or that awkward moment in SATC movie when Samantha Jones had gained 3 kilos or whatever and they all made comments as though she had ended someone’s life. Or when Christina Aguilera embraces her curves and was ridiculed- how disgusting is the media? I also can’t stand the way the media has to have these disgusting shows about weight loss all the time - they don’t show the behind the scenes, the after effects of rapid weight gain, the extreme measures taken by some contestants to lose the weight in order to appease judges who they themselves have admitted are unable to maintain the regimental routines set out by these shows. I think society and the media really needs to change their approach to how to address such issues because instead of dealing with underlying issues they focus on the superficial and that’s never a good approach to take at all 😔
not only does she look very thin, she looks sad and unwell which makes my heart hurt as i know the circumstances that lead to such a look
What??How so
I agree. She looks sickly. This is a very weird situation. I don't ever think that I've seen somebody lose weight and they look worse. She looks unhealthy. She looks emaciated.
I feel like if someone is not speaking publicly about dramatic weight loss, it shouldn’t be celebrated. If they seem to be keeping it a secret and they’re not addressing it, then it could be a health issue (not in every case, some people on fitness/weight loss journeys may just not want tons of attention and that’s fine). Even if the personal trainer had Adele’s consent, she should know better than to 1) put someone on this “diet” and 2) release this info because of how dangerous it is.
Especially considering the fact that she was so vocal about being proud to be fat. Adele always spoke about her wake. She refused to work with people who had an issue with her weight. The so now, for her suddenly to have no comment about it, is just weird
I don’t understand why people are commenting on this video-which is clearly part of a channel that focuses on and promotes eating disorder recovery-and act like it’s okay to tell her or anyone watching what is “right” or “wrong” or “healthy” when it comes to food/weight/exercise/etc. EVERYBODY IS DIFFERENT. One of the largest factors that PRESSURE people to diet, change, or spiral into disordered behavior is the constant misconception that there is a finite definition of “healthy.” Metabolisms differ. BMI is bullshit as no genetic information goes into account. There are no “super foods” or unhealthy foods. A variety of foods is a good thing. Knowing what is healthy for you and altering your diet to match is a good thing. Doing what is ultimately right for YOU is a good thing. And for the people in the comments that are throwing a fit about the “disordered eating” bit, you can partake in disordered eating and not have/develop an eating disorder. I’m not sure why that is so touchy-I’m assuming it has to do with the large stigma surrounding eating disorders and mental health in general-but that’s not an attack on anyone and shouldn’t be met with such criticism and defense. It’s also obvious that people aren’t taking into account that this TH-cam channel IS ABOUT EATING DISORDER RECOVERY. When you’re discounting everything this woman says because you don’t agree and defend weight loss/“healthy” regiments, you’re just discouraging the thousands of people watching this video that are trying to recover or seek help by reinforcing that health is finite and certain health/beauty/BMI/weight/diet standards should be recognized/normalized/followed/met by everyone. That’s my two cents, and I won’t be replying or striking any debates. I do want to reinforce one thing: If you’re watching this and become confused or discouraged, just leave knowing that what is healthy for YOU is okay. You are worth everything, and you can be proud of who you are and what you do. If you’re in recovery or seeking help, I APPLAUD YOU. I’m in recovery myself, and I can affirm that recovery is worth it, and YOU ARE WORTH RECOVERY.
There's no problem with her weight loss.
NO ONE IN ADELES TEAM HAS SAID ANY INFORMATION. That woman is trying to get her 5mins of fame out of this. You all are believing anything you read is just beyond me
Given the talent of the individual in question, it's sad that there is so much focus (by the media) on physical appearance. Whether it's weight gain or loss there are so many factors that might be contributing (ie. health issues, relationship issues, fertility issues, addiction issues, etc). Praise or condemnation is so unhelpful and creates an impression that weight gain or loss is objectively "good" or "bad" when they are neither.
If she did eat 1000 cal a day for a week it hasnt harmed her its only a week.if it actually happened....its pure speculation. Zero proof...she was overweight, she lost weight..she maybe incredibly healthy and happy with her life now. stop dragging this through the dirt.
It is NOT 'disordered' eating to skip meals....it is quite correct to eat only when hungry, even if that means skipping meals - it is called intermittent fasting and is the way humans are SUPPOSED to eat.
I would love to know how much pressure was put on Adele to lose weight by her management team.
Growing up I was obese because my parents over fed me and it lead me down a path where I turned to so much processed food and sweet coffees / soft drinks everyday to cope with my mental health. So when I went to the doctor’s and was told I had a minor heart attack that I didn’t even realize I had when I was 16, pre diabetes and high blood pressure I went down a “healthy” path and lost a lot of weight which spiraled into anorexia. After recovery I’ve realized that eating pretty healthfully with treats here and there - I EAT INTUITIVELY , I have been able to maintain my weight and fuel my body and feel amazing daily. Crash diets lead nowhere but to depression or future binging. I am just saying 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I think it’s good that Adele wanted to lose weight but I would hate to see her just going down a bad path. Lots of love. 🙏🏼💟💕
I am overweight after years and years of an eating disorder and then dieting.my doctor asked how many calories I eat in a day and I knew it was a trick question. I am currently eating 2500+ on the minnie Maud method and I knew i couldn't tell him I was eating that amount and I said,I'm eating 2000 calories and I noticed in his report that he sent to the labs for bloodwork that he stated that I was obese due to excess calories and that was after i told him how i got to be overweight.He didnt believe I became overweight due to restricting. He humored me and it was insulting to not be believed or to feel like I'm eating too much and that's why I'm overweight.🙄
Rice Bowl Oh gosh, I’ve had so many similar experiences with drs making assumptions. Did you say anything about the note you saw the dr write? Def have a planned response in future just in case it happens again. It doesn’t need to sound critical or rude, just like “what does this note you made mean?/ please can you explain it to me?” Kinda playing the naive card.
On another note it may help to get a referral to a dietician who can help you out and also make more in depth and accurate notes on your file.
I wish you well :)
@@SP-kk5nj After that visit,I still tries to explain my situation and he just didnt get it or what I'm trying to do.But,I thought he would actually listen to me and my hisband,but he did not.I guess there's no point in trying anymore with him.I just dont like being looked at like I'm overweight due to stuffing my face ,which isnt true.Thanks for the advice. 🙂
YES! The science and understanding of how this all works (or fails to) is way behind what ED sufferers and dieters know. Doctors are no help in this area and we do better not disclosing too much. Which is sad really, they could learn from us.
M C Maybe that’s reason to disclose more? If they start hearing the same thing they can (hopefully) begin to see patterns?
There is science that shows that prolonged dieting/restriction slows your metabolism, which I think is my personal problem. But how do I get past that without spiking my weight? Drs just tell me that because I’m underweight I need less, but I know that’s not the whole story. I’m stuck on less than half the recommended cals for my age and sex, and I’m also a dancer so am super active. Some advice is to just go with it and eat the ‘correct’ amount but that will make me gain like crazy. Even ed units don’t make me do that so???
@@SP-kk5nj Depends on the doctor but most dont listen or believe. There's no real answer is there? I am just watching the science catch up slowly and one day doctors will be familiar with how complex it all is, the role of hormones etc. Of course we should just eat enough, and gain if we gain, but that's a big ask for dancers and frankly anyone. There is so much emphasis on ED being 'not about the weight', which is not true in my opinion. There is going to be a bigger resistance to recovery in people who know they will become and remain big, and those who will stabilise at a slim size. I'm in your situation too and it absolutely sucks.
Can I ask a question as someone who knows that I suffer from disordered eating, but cannot always tell in others.
Disorder means our attitude, our mental state. So I understand that even though a lot of what I am doing is "healthy" now, my mind still goes places that are still not. And that is something I need to work on.
While this sort of extreme diet is clearly not healthy, if it doesn't change the mental state of the person on the diet, is the person's eating considered disordered?
(and I fully appreciate and understand your concern in this video being about the message that it sends to people, not about Adele's state per se. -- also, if this is a comment that doesn't comply with what you consider safe, please delete it!)
Omg - another sensitive video, people talking about people that they don’t know is crazy, the energy you put in making this vid should be put into your family. That woman doesn’t care what you think 😭
She was losing weight since she started her musical career, with every album you can see the change from 2009 to 2012 it wasn't too much of a change, on 2015 she lost much more pounds and now well she had lost a lot.
No one knows what Adele actually did to lose the weight. There is no confirmation that this trainer was in fact her personal trainer. She might have found a perfectly healthy way to lose weight, over a significant amount of time. So to come out and say she has an eating disorder is a very bold thing to say, Because you don’t know her personally. And no one knows why she lost weight her life might have depended on it. Spreading information about a person that is most likely false is so toxic and making okay for the media to do it also.
I can’t imagine a 3 year old needing 1300 calories though, considering that a lot of the times grown women who are between 4’11-5’1 can have a BMI as low as 1200 calories from what I’ve read, although please correct me if I’m wrong.
Meag 3 year olds need more calories for growth as they’re growing a lot every day. Women of that height usually are more around the1300-1400 bmr anyway, but that’s at rest. Every bit of movement like walking around your house or getting in the shower burns more. Some people of that height maintain healthy weights on 2500 if they’re active and have a lot of muscle mass
Cindy X I’m 4’11-5’0 and a young person. According to my Apple Watch my BMR is around 1250 calories. I know the watch isn’t 100% accurate but it is pretty close.
Some People Just wanna lose weight, Emma.Not everyone is sick like us
People in larger bodies can experience eating disorders like anorexia and disordered eating.
Linda Elizabeth Of course you can lose weight, people do lose weight in a healthy way. I think you missed the point of that video. The point it not to do it so restrictively because a 1000 calories a day is just unhealthy and it’s undereating. And it leads to both mental and physical health problems. And exactly, people I larger bodies suffer from eating disorders. Eating disorders are not determined by your BMI. You can be in the obese range according to BMI and experience all kinds of ED, including atypical anorexia nervosa.
thoughts&behaviours You have to be below bmi 17.5 (underweight) to have a diagnosis of anorexia.
@@SP-kk5nj nah, that's already being cut out of many manuals, including the DSM-V, which is the one people looove to quote.
S P I said ATYPICAL anorexia, not anorexia. come on, this is so old school, we should already move past this because the knowledge is so outdated, you have exact same behaviors, restricting, abusing your body. Just because somebody is within the obese range for example doesn’t mean they don’t have an eating disorder!!!! People need to realize that. In fact ALL of the people I know in the larger bodies are all the time on crash diets and they restrict heavily. I wasn’t below 17,5 BMI when I restricted like CRAZY and exercises for hours and hours daily. My gyn said I looked amazing and should keep up running marathons because it’s healthy for me. In the meantime I was missing my period for a year.
Thank you for this video! It helped me, I found myself seeking out Adele transformation pics and articles to find out what she did and then from this video realized that was not healthy. Caloric needs vary greatly from someone’s height, age, etc. but 1,000 is not enough for any full grown adult.
Camille It can be. It depends on your BMR, your weight, size and physical activity, as well as health issues. Personally I gain weight if I have 1000 cals a day as my metabolism is fu*ked from years of ed. There are other issues that cause the same outcome for different circumstances too.
@@SP-kk5nj Same here, 1000 is maintenance unless extremely active. I'd like to know how our poor bodies do it when it's supposed to be scientifically impossible! Still, I know I'd be better of just accepting the gain that came with eating a normal amount of food
All foods? Your body doesn’t really need, flour(main ingredient in bread), or dairy(cheese, milk/ yogurt is kinda good but still) and sugar. Why wouldn’t you restrict those? From what people are saying on online, 1000 calories a day isn’t meant for daily living, it’s meant to trigger extreme weight loss. (It’s only for 10days and it’s funny how you don’t mention this in the video)
I don’t watch your channel, but my guess is by what you’re saying that you’ve never been obese. Being obese and working hard to lose weight can happen without being disordered. Eating 1000 calories a day may be something someone who is anorexic would do, but it may also be an appropriate way to jump start weight loss.... really only the person themselves can judge the emotional aspects of it, and the people close to them. Good for Adele for making steps to get healthy, and hopefully she maintains with a healthy outlook.
Oof, sorry to tell you Kat, but I have been. I've been at various different weights and experienced a few different eating disorders. I even restricted at those higher weights and it was still dangerous (I was celebrated for it), even though I didn't fall into the anorexia diagnosis yet. Strongly encourage you to do some deeper research about eating disorders and disordered eating.
What Mia Did Next well I am happy for you that you found healing. I still disagree completely with you being able to judge her motives, and think that although shedding light on things like this potentially triggering other people is good... I find it sad that you view it only as negative without knowing her process of it. Best wishes
@@katbarronhome It's... not about her process. I stated in the video that she has neither confirmed or denied whether the diet info is even accurate. The video is a critique of the personal trainer who chose to share dangerous diet advice, as substantiated by various dietitians and medical professionals who also confirm that it is not sustainable and potentially harmful.
I'm very angry about the low numbers I burn more than that I'oing nothing and im classified as boreder underweight.ive have moderate to severe hypothyroidism I was surprised wasn't even mid weight fir build. Id no energy to move never had obesity and had almose no exercise slow walks I miss have the energy to run. Runninh it's not often due to violent headaches my friebds are sad I can't due to illness severe headaches. I've normal tests. I run 2x in a few weeks walk 60 minutes every second day. Mias estimate is definitely likely to be correct you can't safely eat that level of carbs with training most likely it can cause shortness off breathe on low carb. I'd bad headache so tried keto but im ot offay with this diet of 1000 calories but low carb?;not for me. Not saying it can't help but less than 1200 no. Low carbs. Tried it twice. Shortness of breathe and insomnia. Don't think the shaming is needed though I've put people in their place more than once for insulting my shape but I agree with Mia. . it I think the lifestyle is more than a bit severe I'd very low blood pressure atclose enough to that. I burn at east 500 calories along with 1200 had metabolic test at least 1700 and im a very short lady. Upset about this article.
It's really annoying that the TH-cam algorithm can't distinguish between diet-culture promoting content and diet-culture critiquing content. Every time I finish marking all the promoting suggested videos as "not interested", I watch a video from Mia or someone else critiquing diet-culture and all that dirt appears straight back in my suggested videos. It makes it really hard for people to access important content without exposing themselves to a bunch of triggering shit.
Omg sameee
thanks for this. it always irritates me in a different way when i see celebrities doing these diets. like .. they have more than enough money to get plastic surgery IF they really feel like they need to "perfect" their body. i understand its their job to look good and all (society's expectations) .. not to promote anything here but why is it okay to starve yourself to become skinnier but when someone gets liposuction for the same reason its problematic (according to society i mean)?
at the end of the day body positivity is the goal but idk .. if i was a celebrity and felt the absolute need to alter my body size/shape, dieting wouldnt be the first option.
my point is that diet culture is so crazy that it tells us being skinny is the goal but that at the same time tryna achieve that unrealistic goal through "unnatural" methods (bc the goal isnt natural or realistic either) like plastic surgery is bad and we all have to go on diets and work out.. as if people dont die from these things. just a thought
Didn't Adele say she wanted to lose weight for health - not for society's beauty standards? Health-wise liposuction wouldn't affect the adipose tissue surrounding the organs, which is said to be very dangerous. Also, being a type of surgery it must have risks.
Jupither Danach did you watch the video? eating 1000cals a day isnt healthy. ppl underestimate the health risks that diets pose bc ppl associate being skinny with being health(ier)y. and ofc surgeries have risks but they are done from doctors under guidelines etc therefore less risky than restricting. when i was "dieting" i lost a lot of hair and didnt get my periods for three months. how is that not unhealthy but getting plastic surgery, which are legit surgeries done by doctors, are ? you proved my point with your comment
@@lunali7209 I never said that I agree with restricting calories as low as that! Not at all. Not any diet is a super-restrictive crash diet though. Aiming for a small calorie deficit, definitely above your basal metabolic rate, it is possible for many people to safely lose weight. Possibly even with the help of a dietician, i.e. profesional help.
Clearly this does not apply to everyone. For someone who has struggled with extreme restriction in the past, it is probably not a good idea.
I am sorry if my comment upset you. That was definitely not my goal.
Jupither Danach its fine! i understand what you mean however i dont believe in ANY diet and dont believe that even the most "sensible" diets work. after reading the intuitive eating handbook and seeing all the data i now know that even the most "sensible" diets dont really work
This TH-camr should have some control over the ads on this channel. There are awful ads for obsessive weight loss programs, some directed specifically at women and their problem "tummy fat." My God!! ( that's how my eating disorder started years ago). Also some guy who focuses on the "right" foods to eat to lose weight. This is VERY sick to have these ads here. Please be aware of this. It seems VERY dangerous and sick on the part of advertisers to me.
Not to be judgemental, but lets just wait and see how long she's able to sustain this for, and what happens when and if she gains it back. That is awful that thats out in the media. its stories about diets and celeb diets, like this that was out in the media when I was younger than triggered my eating disorders when I was young.
i wish my concerns about this video i had when i saw the community post for it weren't validated. unfortunately they are very much so. i don't think anyone AT ALL should be commenting on Adele's weightloss unless they have every nugget of information about her diet and what she is eating. adele did come out and say she was going through weightloss for her own health and to be around for her children in the future. adele was very overweight previously and losing weight to get healthy means being in a caloric deficit, that's how weight loss works and it's not unhealthy to restrict certain foods, especially extremely unhealthy or inflammatory foods. maybe coming from and eating disorder past this seems like an alarming thing to do because, for you, restricting is an unhealthy behavior, that is perfectly valid and ok to feel for you but you can't apply it to other situations if you don't know the complete set of facts and we don't. we don't know what the rest of her diet consists of, we only know her trainer came out and tried to shill a weightloss system in the manner that many trainers or fitness influencers try to do. we don't know how intense adeles fitness routine is, we don't know if adjustments were made to her diet all we know are two things and that is not enough to make any conclusions on. healthy weightloss works because of a healthy calorie deficit and raising your calorie intake to a maintenance level as you get closer to your goal weight. we can't and absolutely shouldn't make any judgement because adeles trainer decided to go to the media to try and shill a fad diet for a quick buck and i'm slightly disappointed that this is what this video has come to. we are shaming people who are getting to a healthy weight in a way that suits them because their trainer, not them, but THEIR TRAINER went to the media to shill a weightloss system. next time if you don't have all the facts instead of just what one person said maybe hold off on making a video like this. i agree with calling fad diets out for everything they really are but not in relation to a person who you don't have all the facts on in terms of their diet or what they are doing.
Hate to tell you this Rachel, but we actually agree on the point you raised about unhelpful info being disseminated about celeb diets. This video is about what the trainer shared and how the media has reported on it. In other words, that Adele has been used as a vehicle to spread bad diet advice. Also stated that she hasn’t confirmed anything, hasn’t publicised the diet and I never made any judgements about her weight loss/health/appearance.
@@WhatMiaDidNext awesome!!! i guess looking at the content with a different frame of thought (i had to lose weight as i was becoming housebound to genetic conditions causing excess weight gain and excess weight exacerbating my conditions) and honestly i find it so interesting how i percieved the video coming from, what i guess is, the opposite side of the spectrum. i thought i had recalled adele very early on when her weightloss made the news saying that her health and family was a big motivator for her, i could be wrong though, but ever since i had only heard assuptions about the method used and the fad diet etc. throughout my own weight gain and loss journey first it was i was getting unhealthily fluffy and then it was am i turning annorexic and a lot of speculation from my peers before i got into strength training and running and it was the most frustrating thing to have to hear those things from everyone around me since it appeared they hadn't considered weather i was just going for healthy and strong. i had a lot of help from two very talented and caring trainers, they're the types who would rather be slapped than shill fad diets, so it's frustrating hearing and seeing others give the health and fitness industry a bad name and lead others to think they have to try and follow some unattainable set of standards that will put then tens steps back and in a worse situation. what annoys me more is that once upon a time i would have been the exact type of vulnerable person that could have fallen for that kind of marketing and i firmly believe it was a serious stroke of luck (and liking food far too much) that i didn't end up persuing what those kinds of influencers sell.
Everyone has been asking what did she do to lose weight, but maybe the question should be why she’s lost it....? She’s a human being, a mother going through a divorce. It could be a number of things, maybe stress. Albeit positive or negative, why should it matter to us? She can do her 🙌🏽👏🏽 and we should just hope she’s ok mentally and physically 👍🏽
It's my understanding that if you lose weight on a crash diet there is a good chance that you will gain it all back.
She looks absolutely fantastic. Very sexy and very healthy. Good job Adele! Such an inspiring thing she has done. Well done. Don't listen to the jealous haters.
She does not look fantastic. That's kind of the point. She looks gaunt. She looks sick. She looks emaciated.
@@ineedhoez she looks much better. She is much more healthy and attractive than before. She was hard to look at before. She is now absolutely beautiful! Stunning! Wow! Like I said... Adele, don't let the haters bring you down. They are jealous, lazy and angry. It's not men that are hating on her, it's jealous women that are trying to bring her down. Pathetic! You go girl, Adele! So proud of you!
I don't like the _look_ of her weightloss. She looks too gaunt and it doesn't look like the healthy kinda weightloss. It just looks like she starved herself. I don't think shell maintain it in the longterm.
theres no "sensible" diet. die idea that doing a diet for a longer time will guarantee life long weight loss is a myth. even if you restricted for five years, as soon as you go back to eating normally after you will still gain back weight (plus more. if anything, long term diets may ruin ones health and psyche even more as it puts the body through the "starvation mode" phase for a super long time. the longer your restriction, the longer your recovery
Just wait and see
she doesn’t look gaunt at all she looks really healthy maybe even “chubby”? y’all body posi folks goin a lil too far 🤦🏻♀️
Of course she won't. Shall be fat again within 2 years. 99% of diets fail because they lower your metabolic rate. The moment you stop exercising like crazy and eat food, you will get fat. Your body is super smart. Weight loss is very unnatural to the body.
Geez the 1,000 calories is for 6 days. If it's not for you keep moving. Dietician like doctors teach and inform what they've learned, it doesn't mean is the absolute truth to the matter. Media well that's another thing you either smart or gullible.
Came out she did it to be around longer and healthier for her son. It was going to an extreme and I hope it doesnt have long term effects on her relationship with food or her metabolism (like the contestants from biggest loser).
She prob had a by pass
PRETTY SURE that Adele had a gastric band....
totally -
Yeah that's just like the media coverage of Joaquin Phoenix when he lost all that weight in a clearly unhealthy, disordered way for Joker. And he didn't even want to talk about it as it was pretty obvious anyway. Drove me insane, just like with Adele now. It's completely irresponsible
H3 talks in his latest podcast about Adele’s weight loss, and it’s terrible!
There is nothing wrong with adele's weight loss.
I feel so sad for her to be placed in this unsustainable position. It is really unethical of the trainer
Why are people so obsessed with this ? It's nobody's business !
I honestly see nothing wrong with just green juices. I do that from time to time to detox the body. Fasting for a short period and juicing is a great way to cleanse the system. I had a look at the meals on this diet it looks really healthy and delicious.
The problem is that she looks worse. She looks unrecognizable as well.
Also she was so proud to be fat and now she has zero to say about her weight. Hypocrite.
Restricted eating isn't an eating disorder at all, if you're overweight and you eat 1000 calories you're not gonna starve, you use your own body fat for energy and once you get lean then you maintain its only a crash diet if you dont have discipline to maintain anything is sustainable if youre disciplined
Eating disorders and disordered eating are two different things. Restricted/restrained eating is a disordered eating behaviour.
No. If you are underweight and you continue to eat extremely low calories cos of some sort of body dysmorphia then yh, its an eating disorder and its not healthy. If you are overweight and you cut calories and change your diet choosing healthier food choices and then exercise... It is not a disorder at all, you are just becoming more health conscious and thats a good thing. I've personally restricted eating lost weight and never crashed and gained weight back. I've also exercised on low to 0 calories, i didnt lose energy i had more energy cos when you dont eat your liver produces ketones that breakdown your own body fat for energy and i increased my metabolism from restricted eating and fasting so i can eat more calories now than before and not gain weight. I'm confused to your skepticism as a "dietitian" to restricted eating or time restricted eating (fasting) cos of all its health benefits not just weight loss thats more superficial, probably the least important health benefit. Theres numerous, , reduce risk of diabetes, brain, heart function, improve blood sugar, blood pressure, autophagy (cleaning out damaged cells in the body) This has all been proven by science on numerous studies.
It's not my opinion mate, it's clinical information. You don't seem to understand the distinction between an eating disorder (a diagnosed illness) and disordered eating (a behaviour/set of behaviours which don't necessarily equate to an eating disorder). This might help you: www.nedc.com.au/eating-disorders/eating-disorders-explained/disordered-eating-and-dieting/
"Disordered eating" is just a nice way of saying eating disorder, or behaviour thats on the path to an eating disorder i read that article, thats pretty much what its saying ... And i can refute most of that article from my own personal experience and others who restrict food, i could also find thosands of studies that support my narrative its all relative... and its easy to cherry pick what supports your opinion I understand women who have these behaviours and over exercise and under eat cos of self image and the stress of media and they can develop bulimia and anorexic over time but thats a small minority compared to the general population who restict certain foods or fast and exercise for health benefits cos those people with those insecurities of body image are "disordered eating" for all the wrong reasons due to mental illness caused by external factors i already mentioned not with motivation to improve health. Anything to excess can be dangerous even drinking water, I'm sure there's plenty of women who have disordered eating because of the stress of social media and self image, even some men, but people who change their lifestyle, eat healthier and exercises alot for health not just body image cant be labelled "disordered eaters" there has to be a distinction between the two, to me "disordered eating" doesn't sound like there is.
I understand your argument, and i respect your opinion, but cos of my personal experience of what you could call "disordered eating" cos i restrict foods and eat at certain times also exercise 6 days a week not cos of any kind of insecurity, i had no insecurity when i was unhealthy and inactive , i do it cos it makes me feel better, so we'll have to agree to disagree.
Way to go Adele.
There is none. Next.
