OMG Thanks!! I' started doing that consistently, just about a month ago, then had to buy a new business suit, and bought my normal size, but the lady said the jacket was sizing bigger, so I got a smaller size for the whole thing, and the pants were bigger, in the smaller size! Thanks your accomplishment is amazing and inspiring at the same time!!! Kudos to you!!! and good luck to me! Julian has always made the most sense to tme, it took me doing keto, losing 25 AND GAINING BACK 35 TO SEE THE LIGHT... SMH ...
Same here, I'm down 28 lbs with minimal exercise. I try to aim for around 1500 a day but I have cheat days where I go over by 500 to 1000 every now and then (it's good to treat yourself sometimes) I really recommend calorie counting using my fitness pal, it takes a little while to get used to but you'll find yourself quickly dropping down clothe sizes and become more knowledgeable about managing calories and what foods you should eat each day. The best part about calorie counting to me is that even if I have a bad day and have some cake or something, I'm usually still at a deficiet since my cap is 1500 and I burn around 2500 on average each day. It's nice knowing that even if you mess up its not a huge deal and you can just get back on track the next day :) wishing you all the best of luck!!
This video changed my life 2 years ago. I had never heard the math of losing weight and Jillian made it very concrete goal vs tangible. At the time I was 166lbs and currently 120lbs! This video was a game changer for me!
I’m five days into a calorie deficit for the first time in my life. I’ve been drinking a gallon of water a day and I’m so shocked by how well I’m handling this and how satisfied I feel throughout the day. I’m recovering from a binge eating disorder and I’m trying my best to heal my broken relationship with food. Ive been working out for increased periods of times every night because I’m not used to exercising this frequently. I’m up to 20 minutes now. Thank you for this helpful video.
H T you can still have an eating disorder if you’re overweight. It’s not just anorexia etc, it can also be binge eating to the point where you feel ashamed etc when emotions are high. This is where I was before.
Facts! Iv lost 70lbs doing the same thing 240lbs to 170lb. And no it doesn’t happen over night. This took me 2 years. I eat about 300 hundred calorie deficit but walk 1 hour a day to get me a total of 500 calorie deficit. The biggest tip I can give to others trying to lose weight is to WEIGH your food. Look at the nutrition label and see how many grams is in 1 serving of that food. Most people who eyeball their food end up eating more calories than they think which will slow down your weight loss. If you’re thinking you’re in a 500 calorie deficit but actually only in a 200 calorie deficit you’ll think counting calories doesn’t work. Remember don’t forget to track sneaky calories like oils and sauces. Don’t drink your calories, eat them you’ll be more full. I promise you this works.
After 22 years of trying to lose weight, this 12 minute video has just completely been a lightbulb 💡 moment. When put into these simple terms, it makes so much sense
People are looking for a magic diet when it all boils down to common sense and consistency. Glad to hear truth without a back handed way of trying to sell me something. Thank you.
This explains a lot. Makes sense why I was never losing weight before. I’m doing it the right way now though. Consistency with healthy foods and pushing myself in workouts!

Hi Jillian, I have been working with a trainer and am down 56 since July 2, 2021, total loss of 103.4 since Nov 2019. I am one of those on the 1200 calorie a day diet, eating 90g of carbs and losing significantly. No weight loss surgery either. Counting calories and working out is the only way to get it done! 😊 I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in May 2021 with an A1c of 10.2. With change of diet and exercise I was down to an A1c of 5.1 in Aug 2021. To those out there, it can be done, don’t give up hope.
Wow! I'm so glad someone has finally given real knowledge. As a runner, I consumed 1500 calories a day and ran an average of 7-10 miles a day. This kept me lean at arou d 165 lbs and I was 26 years old. Now at 36, Im at 200 lbs and need to revisit my old strategies which was calorie counting, daily exercise, and a mostly vegetarian diet. Thank you for sharing this great information with us.
35 pounds in 2 months is actually extremely frightening. Most health specialists I've met recommend 2 pounds per week but you're losing a little under 4.5 and that raises some hardcore health flags for yourself that could damage your body.
@@XTheCrystalBeastGuyX It didn't feel frightening. I didn't starve myself or did any strenuous workout.I didn't have any particular weight loss goal to begin with. I simply switched from calorie dense foods to low calorie density foods such as vegetables, salads, boiled beans, egg white, yogurt etc. As the days went by, weight loss was natural and I felt more energy as I lost weight. So, I started walking/jogging. Also, I cut down on car use as much as was possible and walked instead.
@@cwhyharris7473 yeah the whole "partner" thing is annoying, yes it's good for gay couples to call each other that but even men and women relationships are calling each other that now. I'll hear a man or a woman call their spouse their partner and I'm like what the hell
@@youtoo2233 i don't see the difference... as a woman you could have a wife as well.... i don't see how the terms husband and wife would fit less for gay couples, but i also don't see what's wrong with calling your spouse a partner in a straight relationship heh
Thank you! I'm 43 and always had issues as a child and teen... I've always gotten back on track with simple calorie counting...and exercise. Exercise..moving...walking.. it's a privilege.
I’m doing keto and calorie counting, I’m losing and my doctor suggested it to help with my seizures. I mean, keto isn’t all bad, but like my doctor said, keto isn’t just bacon and eggs, which I think a lot people think. It’s a lot of fresh veggies, healthy fats and a moderate amount of protein.
Ginger Elise yess! I am doing the same thing! I gained 40lbs because my thyroid gave out. And I had a major depressive episode because of it, where I started binging and stopped moving. Now my dr and nutritionalist have me on keto and calories counting. (And I started Synthroid) I hardly ever eat bacon lol, I have tons of green veggies! I love them!! Keto has taught me to get creative with my cooking and discover new veggies that I never would have though to eat! Like zucchini noodles! 🤤🤤
@@spiritualanarchy Keto does help with seizures. I work in care . However, I would suggest that one should eat good quality food(pasure raised meat, eggs, raw cheese, wild fish), organic veg and some fruit, filter your water. Also, clean up your home removing all chemicals, body cleaning products, etc,.. Best Wishes.
@@michelletaylor5341 use an app like my fitness pal and try either typing it all in individually or basically what the dish is. It will get you a general ballpark estimate
This is the perfect realistic video. Counting calories and training is the only way. When you understand this, so well explained btw (I love the way you are down to earth with advising the viewers, this is logic). Miracles don’t happen over night, it takes discipline, determination and hard work! Thank you Jillian. You are the best my lady!
THANK U FOR THAT keto info! I lost 20lbs and ended up with a fatty liver so yeah thanks for also bringing up the actual possible damage it can do and side effects!
Calories in, calories out...I took your words to heart and it does work. No crazy diet, just simple exercise and eating healthy. 10 years ago I was overweight and diagnosed w Type 2 diabetes. I started with your Body Revolution work out (now I use your awesome app!) and started counting calories and throwing out all the junk food. I’m proud to be diabetes free without ever taking any medication. I’ve kept my weight down for 9 years and going strong at 55 years old. I simple listened to what you said...I eat clean and stick to my mantra...calories in, calories out. Thank you, Jillian!
Yasss! Been doing it since 2008 when I initially watched the biggest loser. Down 200 pounds keeping it off with these principles calorie counting saved my life. Thank you Jillian. ❤
This is the best weight loss video I have ever seen. It explains my struggles perfectly. It also explains that counting calories works. Thank you Jillian!
Yes I agree. I started doing this and it's so sustainable and makes me feel in control. Plus it helps me to allow myself to deduct or carry over those extra calories into the next day. And I'm aware that for ie) no today I will not eat that specific food bc I already ate that amount in calories yesterday. I keep a food, serving and calorie journal and I'm losing so it works for me. Plus I'm not into committing to keto, or ww, or veganism. This method works bc I can have whatever I want in a healthy way....and being aware of every foods calories makes you rethink what you are eating and why. It's an ongoing process but it's healthy bc it's a lifestyle not a diet.
I've been doing calorie counting for years since I was pregnant with my 1st child. Totally agree with JM. It's better than any restrictive diets that just 99.9% break. I love her hair color and cut. Beautiful.
I’ve seen MANY ways of explaining a caloric deficit, but this is hands down the best way I’ve ever seen. Explained so simply. Weight loss really is just math!!! Thank you.
Finally!! This info gets left out all the time on tv, from all kinds of fitness professionals and without THIS info everything else becomes misleading. I’m glad to see you explain this
Wow, I'm really loving this video. Clear, concise, to the point, no dancing around the subject. I've always been someone who has really struggled to lose any weight without serious exercise. I've recently gone on a health kick though and have really cleaned up WHAT I'm eating, not just how much, but this video really speaks to me and explains a lot. Kudos!
She's right about keto having some serious side effects though. I've been keto for a year and it's increased my energy, improved mental clarity, reduced cravings, stabilized my weight, balanced my hormones, and made every meal more satisfying... I'd love to send her my latest bloodwork chart to show how fabulous my vitamins, minerals, blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides are!
Changed my life th-cam.com/users/postUgkxIUm04tAgSzlAhCWEr7VlRptRAMVsjeAC I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.
The most miserable years of my life were eating high carb low fat. I switched to a low carb diet and I can lose weight and feel satisfied.. finally I figured out the key that was missing all these years.
To me this is the key/secret: finding what works for you. I'm the opposite: I run about 50% Carbs and 25/25 fat/protein and feel great this way. If my carbs get too low I feel awful, hungry, depleted, etc...Find your Maintenance, find your rations, stick to it!
@@scottmitchell1974 yes..I do agree with you. I do believe there are various ways humans excel but that isn't what is taught. We are taught to follow the food pyramid, even though many of us are fat and unhappy on it. But people refuse to believe it could be different.
Scott D, The key is staying on the plan long enough to find out whether it works for you. If it works you must stay on it for the rest of your life, more or less. The mistake people make is to use the diet as a temporary remedy and go back to eating badly when the weight is lost. That is yoyo dieting resulting in a messed up metabolism.
This video, togheter with 30days shred, was my first step towards my weight loss. I was chunky and couldn't fit in any of my clothes anymore. I remember avoiding to take photos and shopping and so on. I started a balanced diet and worked out regularly (hiit and running), and I lost 10 kg in less than 3 months. I am 33 and now fit in clothes that I used when I was 18. Thanks Jillian, you are an inspiration.
This is THE BEST information I heard in YEARS!!! I LOVE this common sense approach to weight loss and health! I walked away from this and tried the fad ways of loosing weight like keto, which does work. But trying to keep those ways of eating long term DOES NOT work. So I’m back to the old fashioned, tried-and-true, simplistic, cost effective, COMMON SENSE lifestyle of calories-in/calories out… IT WORKS!
Cindy D. That’s the way it is with every diet and everytime someone looses weight but I have inspiration and determination to not fall off the bandwagon
Jillian! I appreciate you in THIS approach. What you are saying here is just fact and science. A caloric deficit will help you lose weight. This is your strength. I would avoid the keto and IF critiques. Shine in YOUR light. Continue to inspire.
I loved this video as calorie counting has worked on me losing weight before and I’m looking for motivation to do it again. I’m only day 3 in. Also, thanks for explaining the Keto diet.
Thank you so much. I've been so strict to myself, staying away from carbs, sugar etc. This video woke me up from that whole cult and mindset. Now I'm just doing cico and enjoying my life instead of being locked in a cage
I have loved you for YEARS, I’m so glad to have you back in my life. And I giggled so many times. I love how you explain things with so much heart and knowledge but can be funny too. Thank you sooooo much
It’s true. For the longest time I was cutting everything out on my diet, I’d lose the weight but I’d gain back when I cheated. And I would do whatever fad diet I could to avoid exercising, but Exercise was the key for me to lose weight.
Just stick with it and it will get easier. Logging gets super easy after a few weeks because you will come to realize you eat many of the same foods every day. You can just pull up your food history and log it again. You got this!
You make perfect sense and you are so right about energy. This is the first time I hear someone use the word 'thermodynamics' in relation to weight loss. Congrats! You nailed it. I never hear the 'keto docs' explain this the way you do. Maybe it is not simple enough for those guys. I lost over 35 pounds in 8 months by eating 50% less calories. I eat anything, including carbs, but in reasonable quantities and it works. No refined sugars, no soda's, and absolutely no alcohol.
I don’t care what anyone says. Jillian knows her stuff! I’m so happy that she’s sharing such awesome real and useful information on her TH-cam channel!
Nancy Daniel and that is a dangerous way to feel about it. Good luck to your health. Keep researching. Do not believe everything people say. Especially when they have a hidden motive.
Nancy Daniel shes not the only one who puts out information like this. There are people on this platform that do a much better job at it by providing more detail on why we’re doing this calculation.
The problem it is very hard to constantly count calories and weigh and measure your food. Very few people can do this for their entire lives. If you eat foods that are not calorie dense, 500 calorie per pound or less, you can eat until comfortably full, without over eating calories. This means fill your plate with unprocessed green and yellow vegetables, starchy vegetables (potatoes, quinoa, rice), and fruit. The unprocessed fibre and water in these foods are what make you feel full without having to count calories, and you won't exceed your calorie requirement for the day.
Thanks for mentioning pcos. I have slim limbs but lots of belly fat due to pcos and a bit of splurging on the wrong foods. I’m currently working on a low carb and balanced diet with plenty of exercise. It would be a dream to have you as my personal trainer so you could transform my midsection!!! I’ll check out your app!! Thanks for your heartfelt advice.
I can't thank you enough for making me understand the rules of a diet. Sure, at 61 you would think I understood but I just lost focus. I was so sure after hearing everyone swear that after a certain age you can't lose weight without KETO, especially after menopause! I am so ready to lose 20-25 pounds and am so happy to have found you! I just ordered your book, The 6 Keys and am so excited to read it! I also ordered a exercise bike, started walking and swimming. I live in Maine and the winters are so cold and long and I guess I ate my chills away! I am off to watch more of your videos so you will hear from me again. Thank you Jillian.......Mary from Maine
Ive been counting calories and staying in a calorie deficient for 6 days now and Ive lost 6 lbs.... I have no restrcited myself I eat the most healthy I can but if I want a slice of pizza or soemthing I have it I just make sure to portion control and that it will fit within my daily calories. Pretty easy and its working great
Omg that’s it I get it now! You are amazing and thank you for this information that I was lucking while being on diet for the past year. Am 5 3’ and 142 lbs but my goal is to lose 25lbs. The keto diet nor the vegan didn’t don’t work for me whatsoever, mind you I just came from my country two years ago and never gained more or less than 117lbs but that all changed once I got in the State’s. Portion portion portion nothing will work unless I eat like what I used to eat back home which portion wise. Thank you again you are very kind and am happy to find your channel.
Thanks so much Jillian for this valuable advice! I was counting calories but not burning enough and was starting to get frustrated, now I am starting to walk 10,000 steps per day and hope that helps me a bit! Not giving up, will up the exercise and continue to count my calories.
I'm so glad I came across your video. I love how you put this together to make sense. I was trying keto but I been Soo stressed about what to eat. Thank you I needed to hear this, straight Facts..
That's why moderation eating with health foods mixed in, with drinking at least 75-80% water and exercising at least 3 times a week and getting 7-9hours sleep daily NEEDS TO BE A "LIFESTYLE!" And that was me being NICE!! The key word is LIFESTYLE!! Not for a special event coming up and then stop....No a LIFESTYLE!! Forever.. to MAINTAIN descent to good health!! I have already been on my 12 year of maintaining my weight while having a athletic physique ever since I was 29..... I couldn't imagine how I would feel If I never started at all back then.... probably slow, tired and lazy and unhealthy....tbh It was because of you Jillian...Ever since I saw you on the biggest loser... that was my motivation to get started..Your words then were so inspiring!! Thank you Jillian! ❤I love you!!❤
Thank you sooo much for this. I have been watching every single calorie I consume and I'm working out almost daily but have only lost a few pounds over the past 2 months. Now I know why. I am going to look at the numbers and see where I can cut back a little on the food and also add a little more time to my workouts. Seriously this was exactly what I needed to watch, I was really feeling discouraged. Thank you 🙂
👏👏👏👏 perfect, short, and 100% true video about weight loss!!! And thank you talking about the keto diet. So many people don't understand the ramifications of that diet!!
Calories in, calories out. Simple. I started doing that but then noticed I went back to the overeating habit. Thanks for keeping me in check. Love you Jillian!!
Jillian, this explanation in "Lemans terms" is soo good, very easy to understand and to apply in my daily routine. I calculated mine and I am excited to start a new focused on these hints and balanced nutrition without damaging my body. I am pumped! Thanks for sharing you knowledge " and for reinforcing the simple biology and anatomy class at college back in 1995..."calories in calories out". You are my superwoman! Huggies, Yana
Dear Jillian Michaels, Thanks for sharing my (beside exercise) "not secret" as to why people ask me how I do it at 58 years old. 💪 So every now & then I'll grow beard shadow so those ppl can see that I really am an older Man. #AppreciateYaJillianMichaels
Thank you so much for your you- tube info. videos! You've saved me from the 'other programs' that I've been following and not had the results I expected. Actually, quite the opposite. Listening to you just a few times and following what you say, I'm already seeing results! So appreciated.
So happy to finally have someone *NOT SPONSOR* a product and just give straight facts
Once/if she regains any kind of credibility, the in video ads promoting some bullshit she’s selling will begin.
Right love this

Wow! I'm so glad someone has finally given real knowledge. As a runner, I consumed 1500 calories a day and ran an average of 7-10 miles a day. This kept me lean at arou d 165 lbs and I was 26 years old. Now at 36, Im at 200 lbs and need to revisit my old strategies which was calorie counting, daily exercise, and a mostly vegetarian diet. Thank you for sharing this great information with us.
No longer gaining weight
Wow new way of thinking for me
Thank you 🧡
I lost 35 pounds in two months by calorie restriction and light/medium exercise.
That's what I do, count calories and do some walking... it works.
35 pounds in 2 months is actually extremely frightening. Most health specialists I've met recommend 2 pounds per week but you're losing a little under 4.5 and that raises some hardcore health flags for yourself that could damage your body.
@@XTheCrystalBeastGuyX It didn't feel frightening. I didn't starve myself or did any strenuous workout.I didn't have any particular weight loss goal to begin with. I simply switched from calorie dense foods to low calorie density foods such as vegetables, salads, boiled beans, egg white, yogurt etc. As the days went by, weight loss was natural and I felt more energy as I lost weight. So, I started walking/jogging. Also, I cut down on car use as much as was possible and walked instead.
@@SK-ck9qu how many calories were you eating in a day?
@@idkidc1377 I am unable to tell you as I didn't keep count.
Imagine having her as a girlfriend/wife. She’d keep you in shape and she’s stunning 😻
I believe she already has a girlfriend or partner if you want to call it
@@cwhyharris7473 yeah the whole "partner" thing is annoying, yes it's good for gay couples to call each other that but even men and women relationships are calling each other that now. I'll hear a man or a woman call their spouse their partner and I'm like what the hell
@@youtoo2233 why is that a problem? xd
@@acetivorans no problem for gay couples, the term fits. Im a guy and i have a WIFE, not a "partner"
@@youtoo2233 i don't see the difference... as a woman you could have a wife as well.... i don't see how the terms husband and wife would fit less for gay couples, but i also don't see what's wrong with calling your spouse a partner in a straight relationship heh
Thank you! I'm 43 and always had issues as a child and teen... I've always gotten back on track with simple calorie counting...and exercise. Exercise..moving...walking.. it's a privilege.
I love listening to you talk about weight loss because you make it sound simple and it doesn’t overwhelm me.
Common sense + calorie in calorie out + exercise + boosting metabolism = what she is telling us and I thank you lady 🙏
I’m doing keto and calorie counting, I’m losing and my doctor suggested it to help with my seizures. I mean, keto isn’t all bad, but like my doctor said, keto isn’t just bacon and eggs, which I think a lot people think. It’s a lot of fresh veggies, healthy fats and a moderate amount of protein.
Ginger Elise yess! I am doing the same thing! I gained 40lbs because my thyroid gave out. And I had a major depressive episode because of it, where I started binging and stopped moving. Now my dr and nutritionalist have me on keto and calories counting. (And I started Synthroid) I hardly ever eat bacon lol, I have tons of green veggies! I love them!! Keto has taught me to get creative with my cooking and discover new veggies that I never would have though to eat! Like zucchini noodles! 🤤🤤
Ginger Elise I’m on keto and never eat bacon. People don’t realize keto can be done using different protocols.
My sons pediatrician recommended keto for his seizures also! Good luck to you with everything ♥️
@@spiritualanarchy Keto does help with seizures. I work in care . However, I would suggest that one should eat good quality food(pasure raised meat, eggs, raw cheese, wild fish), organic veg and some fruit, filter your water. Also, clean up your home removing all chemicals, body cleaning products, etc,.. Best Wishes.
That's exactly how I lost 50 pounds in the last 6 months.....Great Commentary!
ufokamakazie 1 that’s great congrats!
Congratulations!
I can count simple calories like a banana, wtc but how do u count if its several ingredients like soup or chili ??
@@michelletaylor5341 use an app like my fitness pal and try either typing it all in individually or basically what the dish is. It will get you a general ballpark estimate
ufokamakazie 1 congratulations!!!
This is the perfect realistic video. Counting calories and training is the only way. When you understand this, so well explained btw (I love the way you are down to earth with advising the viewers, this is logic). Miracles don’t happen over night, it takes discipline, determination and hard work! Thank you Jillian. You are the best my lady!
THANK U FOR THAT keto info! I lost 20lbs and ended up with a fatty liver so yeah thanks for also bringing up the actual possible damage it can do and side effects!
Calories in, calories out...I took your words to heart and it does work. No crazy diet, just simple exercise and eating healthy. 10 years ago I was overweight and diagnosed w Type 2 diabetes. I started with your Body Revolution work out (now I use your awesome app!) and started counting calories and throwing out all the junk food. I’m proud to be diabetes free without ever taking any medication. I’ve kept my weight down for 9 years and going strong at 55 years old. I simple listened to what you said...I eat clean and stick to my mantra...calories in, calories out. Thank you, Jillian!
Yasss! Been doing it since 2008 when I initially watched the biggest loser. Down 200 pounds keeping it off with these principles calorie counting saved my life. Thank you Jillian. ❤
This is the best weight loss video I have ever seen. It explains my struggles perfectly. It also explains that counting calories works. Thank you Jillian!
Yes I agree. I started doing this and it's so sustainable and makes me feel in control. Plus it helps me to allow myself to deduct or carry over those extra calories into the next day. And I'm aware that for ie) no today I will not eat that specific food bc I already ate that amount in calories yesterday. I keep a food, serving and calorie journal and I'm losing so it works for me. Plus I'm not into committing to keto, or ww, or veganism. This method works bc I can have whatever I want in a healthy way....and being aware of every foods calories makes you rethink what you are eating and why. It's an ongoing process but it's healthy bc it's a lifestyle not a diet.
Perfect explanation. I pray people watch this and learn from it!! So many people quit too fast or try to starve themselves.
I've been doing calorie counting for years since I was pregnant with my 1st child. Totally agree with JM. It's better than any restrictive diets that just 99.9% break.
I love her hair color and cut. Beautiful.
I’ve seen MANY ways of explaining a caloric deficit, but this is hands down the best way I’ve ever seen. Explained so simply. Weight loss really is just math!!! Thank you.
Finally!! This info gets left out all the time on tv, from all kinds of fitness professionals and without THIS info everything else becomes misleading. I’m glad to see you explain this
Ive been watching this video EVERYDAY! It keeps my mindset right. Thank you Jillian🙏😘❤️
I love how persuasive you are 💜 doing the same lost around 15 kilos this year with calorie counting 💜
This has taught me to be patient and consistent. Thank you so much
Just realized I watched this last week. Probably will have to watch it weekly.
I totally agree! I lost 25 pounds in 4 months, just calorie counting and some exercise- basically creating a deficit. Great video.
I’m so happy I found you, you just restored my faith in losing weight. Thank you, thank you, thank you 🥺
“So... let’s say that I’m Peggy sue.”

Wow, I'm really loving this video. Clear, concise, to the point, no dancing around the subject. I've always been someone who has really struggled to lose any weight without serious exercise. I've recently gone on a health kick though and have really cleaned up WHAT I'm eating, not just how much, but this video really speaks to me and explains a lot. Kudos!
She's right about keto having some serious side effects though. I've been keto for a year and it's increased my energy, improved mental clarity, reduced cravings, stabilized my weight, balanced my hormones, and made every meal more satisfying... I'd love to send her my latest bloodwork chart to show how fabulous my vitamins, minerals, blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides are!
She takes spontaneous notes on the back of envelopes, too! It’s official, we’re soulmates.
I've done keto. I get extremely ill after a certain amount of weeks. My friend is doing keto, it's great for her. Just depends on the person
Yep. I did keto and I was fatigued just walking. Stopped keto and now have a bunch of energy.
This is one of the best explanations of weight loss I've seen yet.
I’m starting my diet tomorrow. I NEEDED to hear this today. Thank you Jillian for keeping it simple and informative!
You just changed my life. This is the best vid ive ever watched. Thank you!
I love you Jillian Michaels!!! Your videos has taught me a lot. Keep it up.
I freaking love you!! I love how direct and matter of fact this is..no blah blah blah for like 20 min then get to the point. So real.
Changed my life th-cam.com/users/postUgkxIUm04tAgSzlAhCWEr7VlRptRAMVsjeAC I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.
The most miserable years of my life were eating high carb low fat. I switched to a low carb diet and I can lose weight and feel satisfied.. finally I figured out the key that was missing all these years.
Lady Luck Fat for fuel 🤓🥩💪
I wish that I had discovered keto years ago. Works well for me.
To me this is the key/secret: finding what works for you. I'm the opposite: I run about 50% Carbs and 25/25 fat/protein and feel great this way. If my carbs get too low I feel awful, hungry, depleted, etc...Find your Maintenance, find your rations, stick to it!
@@scottmitchell1974 yes..I do agree with you. I do believe there are various ways humans excel but that isn't what is taught. We are taught to follow the food pyramid, even though many of us are fat and unhappy on it. But people refuse to believe it could be different.
Scott D, The key is staying on the plan long enough to find out whether it works for you. If it works you must stay on it for the rest of your life, more or less. The mistake people make is to use the diet as a temporary remedy and go back to eating badly when the weight is lost. That is yoyo dieting resulting in a messed up metabolism.
This video, togheter with 30days shred, was my first step towards my weight loss. I was chunky and couldn't fit in any of my clothes anymore. I remember avoiding to take photos and shopping and so on. I started a balanced diet and worked out regularly (hiit and running), and I lost 10 kg in less than 3 months. I am 33 and now fit in clothes that I used when I was 18. Thanks Jillian, you are an inspiration.
"SHE FLIPS"....LOL that's me
Bmo Cool same 😫😫😫😂😂
Bmo Cool SAME
LOL! ME!
Right? 😂
This is THE BEST information I heard in YEARS!!! I LOVE this common sense approach to weight loss and health! I walked away from this and tried the fad ways of loosing weight like keto, which does work. But trying to keep those ways of eating long term DOES NOT work. So I’m back to the old fashioned, tried-and-true, simplistic, cost effective, COMMON SENSE lifestyle of calories-in/calories out… IT WORKS!
I’m doing keto and have been counting my calories and I’ve lost 20lbs in a month and a half now 🥺✋
yes u lose weight but possibly at the cost of your organs.
watch what happens when you stop it is not sustainable I have seen it over and over with people they stop put the weight back on plus.
Cindy D. That’s the way it is with every diet and everytime someone looses weight but I have inspiration and determination to not fall off the bandwagon
@@literaryvaleria good for you I hope for the best results for you.
Cindy D. Thank you so much love
Jillian! I appreciate you in THIS approach. What you are saying here is just fact and science. A caloric deficit will help you lose weight. This is your strength. I would avoid the keto and IF critiques. Shine in YOUR light. Continue to inspire.
My iPhone camera doesn’t have this quality lol
Yes, I was really impressed!
Your iPhone's default settings aren't set to your camera's highest video quality. Go to settings -> camera and change record video to 4k at 60 fps :)
ravieboo damn! You’re a real one! You just upgraded my Instagram game 🙌🏽
I have an android so I would know nothing about that, lol!
It's not a phone
This is the BEST video on basic weight loss science ever!!! If anyone else asks how I lost weight, I'll just share this.
I loved this video as calorie counting has worked on me losing weight before and I’m looking for motivation to do it again. I’m only day 3 in. Also, thanks for explaining the Keto diet.
She explained better than any doctor and it helps me cause that was me struggling with checking my weight. Thanks
I’m starting to get a crush on this woman
No shit
Ye
Too sad she's lesbian :(
@@JohnDoe-fm6md begone sinner😂😂 yeah she was in a relationship with Heidi Rhoades (not so hot though)
Charbel Younes I just looked her up and she’s good looking in my opinion
Thank you so much. I've been so strict to myself, staying away from carbs, sugar etc. This video woke me up from that whole cult and mindset. Now I'm just doing cico and enjoying my life instead of being locked in a cage
A spec of dust 😂😂
I have loved you for YEARS, I’m so glad to have you back in my life. And I giggled so many times. I love how you explain things with so much heart and knowledge but can be funny too. Thank you sooooo much
It’s true. For the longest time I was cutting everything out on my diet, I’d lose the weight but I’d gain back when I cheated. And I would do whatever fad diet I could to avoid exercising, but Exercise was the key for me to lose weight.
Love, love, love the way you broke this down. This is just common sense. Thank you.
Oookay makes sense, I'm going to try my calorie counting app again with more activity. Thanks Jillian
Just stick with it and it will get easier. Logging gets super easy after a few weeks because you will come to realize you eat many of the same foods every day. You can just pull up your food history and log it again. You got this!
Liv Ann Try dancing for just 30mins it honestly is so much fun and gets your heart going!
I just go walking and use my app on my phone to track how many calories I burn. I count calories as well
You make perfect sense and you are so right about energy. This is the first time I hear someone use the word 'thermodynamics' in relation to weight loss. Congrats! You nailed it. I never hear the 'keto docs' explain this the way you do. Maybe it is not simple enough for those guys. I lost over 35 pounds in 8 months by eating 50% less calories. I eat anything, including carbs, but in reasonable quantities and it works. No refined sugars, no soda's, and absolutely no alcohol.
Exited out of the video to make a hair appointment, taking a screenshot of this color- gorgeous
She is THE BEST at explaining this,I seriously understand now.
I don’t care what anyone says. Jillian knows her stuff! I’m so happy that she’s sharing such awesome real and useful information on her TH-cam channel!
For your own benefit and health please check Shredded Sports Science latest video. Thank you.
Nancy Daniel and that is a dangerous way to feel about it. Good luck to your health. Keep researching. Do not believe everything people say. Especially when they have a hidden motive.
Nancy Daniel shes not the only one who puts out information like this. There are people on this platform that do a much better job at it by providing more detail on why we’re doing this calculation.
@@FaceLifeOpenMinded Agree. And way more qualified than her. Good looks has nothing to do with good informations.
FaceLifeOpenMinded mmmmmmok
The problem it is very hard to constantly count calories and weigh and measure your food. Very few people can do this for their entire lives. If you eat foods that are not calorie dense, 500 calorie per pound or less, you can eat until comfortably full, without over eating calories. This means fill your plate with unprocessed green and yellow vegetables, starchy vegetables (potatoes, quinoa, rice), and fruit. The unprocessed fibre and water in these foods are what make you feel full without having to count calories, and you won't exceed your calorie requirement for the day.
Thanks for mentioning pcos. I have slim limbs but lots of belly fat due to pcos and a bit of splurging on the wrong foods. I’m currently working on a low carb and balanced diet with plenty of exercise. It would be a dream to have you as my personal trainer so you could transform my midsection!!! I’ll check out your app!! Thanks for your heartfelt advice.
I can't thank you enough for making me understand the rules of a diet. Sure, at 61 you would think I understood but I just lost focus. I was so sure after hearing everyone swear that after a certain age you can't lose weight without KETO, especially after menopause! I am so ready to lose 20-25 pounds and am so happy to have found you! I just ordered your book, The 6 Keys and am so excited to read it! I also ordered a exercise bike, started walking and swimming. I live in Maine and the winters are so cold and long and I guess I ate my chills away! I am off to watch more of your videos so you will hear from me again. Thank you Jillian.......Mary from Maine
technically you can do it without more exercise it will just take looooonger
That was the best I have ever heard it explained and thanks for that!!! I think people are just in denial that they dont have to exercise.
Ive been counting calories and staying in a calorie deficient for 6 days now and Ive lost 6 lbs.... I have no restrcited myself I eat the most healthy I can but if I want a slice of pizza or soemthing I have it I just make sure to portion control and that it will fit within my daily calories. Pretty easy and its working great
What are your daily calories?!
Omg that’s it I get it now! You are amazing and thank you for this information that I was lucking while being on diet for the past year. Am 5 3’ and 142 lbs but my goal is to lose 25lbs. The keto diet nor the vegan didn’t don’t work for me whatsoever, mind you I just came from my country two years ago and never gained more or less than 117lbs but that all changed once I got in the State’s. Portion portion portion nothing will work unless I eat like what I used to eat back home which portion wise. Thank you again you are very kind and am happy to find your channel.
Thanks so much Jillian for this valuable advice! I was counting calories but not burning enough and was starting to get frustrated, now I am starting to walk 10,000 steps per day and hope that helps me a bit! Not giving up, will up the exercise and continue to count my calories.
I love this woman I got in shape 5 years ago than got big again now I'm getting back in shape thanks Jillian.
Such a a good video~Thank you! 👙 Lisa
Best honest video I've seen. Thank you❤❤
I felt like you explained this like I’ve never heard it before so helpful!
I'm so glad I came across your video. I love how you put this together to make sense. I was trying keto but I been Soo stressed about what to eat. Thank you I needed to hear this, straight Facts..
That's why moderation eating with health foods mixed in, with drinking at least 75-80% water and exercising at least 3 times a week and getting 7-9hours sleep daily NEEDS TO BE A "LIFESTYLE!" And that was me being NICE!! The key word is LIFESTYLE!! Not for a special event coming up and then stop....No a LIFESTYLE!! Forever.. to MAINTAIN descent to good health!! I have already been on my 12 year of maintaining my weight while having a athletic physique ever since I was 29..... I couldn't imagine how I would feel If I never started at all back then.... probably slow, tired and lazy and unhealthy....tbh It was because of you Jillian...Ever since I saw you on the biggest loser... that was my motivation to get started..Your words then were so inspiring!! Thank you Jillian! ❤I love you!!❤
Thank you sooo much for this. I have been watching every single calorie I consume and I'm working out almost daily but have only lost a few pounds over the past 2 months. Now I know why. I am going to look at the numbers and see where I can cut back a little on the food and also add a little more time to my workouts. Seriously this was exactly what I needed to watch, I was really feeling discouraged. Thank you 🙂
Thank you Jillian, that was incredible informative !!
Man oh man you are absolutely stunning! I can’t even! Thank you for this simple fact we look over while dieting makes so much sense
This was very helpful.
Crissy samuels agree
👏👏👏👏 perfect, short, and 100% true video about weight loss!!! And thank you talking about the keto diet. So many people don't understand the ramifications of that diet!!
Calories in, calories out. Simple. I started doing that but then noticed I went back to the overeating habit. Thanks for keeping me in check. Love you Jillian!!
HOW ICONIC IS IT THAT HER OWN MIDROLL IS HER OWN AD! QUEEEEEEN
Jillian, this explanation in "Lemans terms" is soo good, very easy to understand and to apply in my daily routine. I calculated mine and I am excited to start a new focused on these hints and balanced nutrition without damaging my body. I am pumped! Thanks for sharing you knowledge " and for reinforcing the simple biology and anatomy class at college back in 1995..."calories in calories out". You are my superwoman! Huggies, Yana
*Layman's terms
I love you! I love your personality and sense of humor AND your workouts. Thank you!!
Dear Jillian Michaels, Thanks for sharing my (beside exercise) "not secret" as to why people ask me how I do it at 58 years old. 💪 So every now & then I'll grow beard shadow so those ppl can see that I really am an older Man. #AppreciateYaJillianMichaels
Thank you so much for your you- tube info. videos! You've saved me from the 'other programs' that I've been following and not had the results I expected. Actually, quite the opposite. Listening to you just a few times and following what you say, I'm already seeing results!
So appreciated.
