- Some people can't handle the truth, but today I dish it out cold. There are 2 main reasons you succumb and quit every fat diet and there is a genuine reason why just exercising more or going to the gym more won't bring you sustainable results. I'll lift the lid on the fitness industry BS and educate you on where best you can allocate your effort for maximal returns, enjoy!

Here's what Chat GPT says about the benefits of losing fat:
Fat loss can have numerous health benefits for individuals who are overweight or obese. Some of the most significant benefits include:
Reduced risk of chronic diseases: Excess body fat is linked to an increased risk of chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and some types of cancer. Losing weight can reduce the risk of these diseases and improve overall health.
Improved cardiovascular health: Losing weight can improve cardiovascular health by reducing blood pressure, improving cholesterol levels, and decreasing the risk of heart disease.
Better sleep: Excess weight can lead to sleep apnea, a condition that interrupts breathing during sleep. Losing weight can reduce the severity of sleep apnea and improve sleep quality.
Improved joint health: Carrying extra weight can put strain on the joints, leading to conditions such as osteoarthritis. Losing weight can reduce joint pain and improve mobility.
Improved mental health: Losing weight can improve self-esteem and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Better immune function: Excess weight can impair immune function, making individuals more susceptible to infections. Losing weight can improve immune function and reduce the risk of infections.
Overall, losing weight can improve physical health, mental health, and quality of life for individuals who are overweight or obese.

Just watched this whilst I eating my kids Easter chocolate
thats a good idea. ill definately get my kids chocolate now and do the same. fathers unite.
You're doing your fatherly duties by eating their Easter eggs. Chocolate is bad for them remember...😉
Dad tax
Just polished an Easter egg I found
Thats the best "i watch this while" comment, concrations
Watching this guy is like a slap in the face from reality. Every day, more wool pulled away from my eyes. How did we get here? And why is this dude not getting more views?
he is climbing :p and with all right
Because most people want an easy answer to their problems. There isn't a easy answer short of drastic surgery (not easy but less effort) or hardcore illegal drug abuse.
People like James, who say "go for a run and eat less cheesebugers" are on the ball but probably not what people want to hear
People who mostly give u reality , don't get views because there is no sugar coating

Share the info then almighty know it all.
I lost so much weight last summer by-walking, hanging my laundry(lugging the baskets upstairs and outside), and gardening. It was amazing-I lived life and lost weight without trying.❤
Dude, this video caused an epiphany for me. I "suddenly" gained about 50 lbs 8 years ago and I've been trying to lose it by adding a workout and cutting calories ever since. Long story short, after watching your video I realized my weight gain happened within 2 years of my divorce and my kids going off to college. I went from caring for a family of 4 in a 5 bed home to caring for myself in a 1 bed condo. I just move a lot less now outside of exercise! My daughter has also been complaining about gaining weight, and because of your video I was able to tell her that it's because she went from working events to a WFH desk job. Thank you SO much.
I experienced a bit of the same. Started working from home and the pounds slowly started adding up. It took me a minute to realize it was happening.
lol. way to shift blame.
@@wildnugget1675I think realizing you are moving less and eating more isn't shifting blame.
A notification brought me back to this comment, so I have an update. I've lost 11 pounds since adding NEAT to my day after watching this video.
Bro,the world needs more people like you,speking the pure real truth of things in an intelligent manner! Great lesson.
The world has plenty of these people you just have to tune into them.
🤣🤣
Lol, "intelligent manner"? 🤣
I don't think I've experienced so much pure joy from a TH-cam video before watching this one. So much truth and so genuine. I needed this today. Thanks for the motivation.
I’d much rather someone tell me things straight than sugarcoat everything, this is what makes James better than almost every other fitness “influencer” out there. Thanks for your honesty all the time, and thanks for being so entertaining while doing so
Straight ?
Carnivore is the only simple and healthy way
@@Unique_Monk No way you watched that entire video and said that
@@duck7194 I know my shit
@@duck7194
Research it 👍🏼💪🏼
@@Unique_Monk Watching Bart Kay doesn't count as research.
That weights/body analogy routine was the greatest sales pitch I've ever seen. James just basically sold the entire human race the best free product we could have asked for.
This guy is my new hero. Comedy gold filled with common sense and genuine help
I’ve been following James for years now, and can honestly say his message gets stronger all the time. ❤
I appreciate the no nonsense content, telling us what we need to hear! 💪
Started watching like a week ago and never related to someone so much in the fitness Industry. It's a nice change of pace and wish more people were as transparent as you. Great video as always.
I was originally not gonna watch because of the title, but I'm glad I did. Great message. I've been saying this for the last 11 years. Moving around more often is what has kept my weight off, not just exercising. And don't overindulge when you eat. I dropped 85 lbs back in 2011 doing this. Been following the same principle ever since. And the weight has never returned.
100% agree. I use fasting as a simple way to put myself in a deficit, without endless calorie counting and very little thought. The deficit is still necessary.
Carnivore - no need for fasting 🤷🏻♂️
@@Unique_Monk most of us don't fancy micronutrient deficiencies, let alone the other health complications linked to inadequate dietary fiber intake.
It can be a means to an end for people with very specific ailments / comorbidities but to dish that out as "the answer" in general is awfully close to the same crap James was criticizing in this video; Dogmatic bullshit with the wrong focus.
@@Nightman9001
Educate yourself

Do you think cavemen ate carbs & vegetables ?
Natural foods were - eggs, milk, meat, chicken & fish
Yet today we are obese & unhealthy
Sugar is 7* more addictive than cocaine yet dieticians promote cereals - processed sugar as better than a boiled egg
Or lucky charms better than a fried egg
It’s hilarious but it’s like the covid vaccine - doctors peddle what they’re paid to peddle - fact
@@Nightman9001
If the carnivore diet eliminates diabetes - what does that say about your current diets ?
James, I appreciate your honesty, bluntness, and overall message. The authenticity is palpable. Hope you have increasing success. You deserve it. And Happy Easter man.
Great video, just found you and subbed, I've lost 130lb (390 to 260) just over 12 months. Essentially doing more gym 4 - 6 times a week, walking, swimming etc etc.
Going to take me another 12 - 18 months to lose the last 84lb. But I've noticed my Frame is changing as I've been continuing to exercise.
If you fuck up and have a pizza that's fine get back on it. If you fuck up and have a dirty weekend get back on it.
Consistency and commitment is the key! Find a reason that works for you!
Clicked for the title, stayed for the information and energy. Thanks for the video; looking forward to watching more! 👍
I just found you yesterday and have watched a couple of your videos about all of the different podcasts (businesses) accepting guests with so-called expert opinions and this one. Today is my rest day and I'll only be walking. You put it so well with the calories in and calories out and not moving enough. I'll keep watching your videos.
I found you when I was just let out of the hospital and was recovering from a traumatic brain injury. That was when I was 29. Im 33 now. Ive been following you to not be scared of the limitations of my body.
Call it a coping mechanism but as a 29-33 y o lady I know for a fact that the more you know about whats making you anxious and scared slowly tears up that scary factor.
This video adds to that pile. Thank you
Who knew I would thank facebook's alogrithm for sending your video in my feed back then 😅
Anyway keep this up James and always be safe and helathy wherever you are 😊
Sending lots of love from summer hot Manila 🙋🏻♀
Happy Easter in manilla from Dublin Ireland.
Glad to have you here! ❤
I really can't believe you're not in the millions of subscribers yet. Won't be long though. Genuinely entertaining with good, honest advice is rare.
Thank you for keeping it simple. Fitness industry is failing people.
I'm so glad this video and others like it exist. The amount of excuses ive heard from friends and family about why they cant lose weight, or why they dont have time to train is insane. I just keep telling them to eat less calories and i ALWAYS get "oh but its because of this or that etc"
Accountability is a foreign concept to a lot of people. At least, as far as weight is concerned. I say this having lost over 50lbs of fat in the last 15ish months while building a solid bit of muscle weight training.
It's true that it's easier for some than others, and we all have a different relationship to food, but it astonishes me the mental gymnastics a lot of fat people go to in order to avoid admitting that they're just not ready to make changes. It's like fine, look, you don't have to want to try and move toward a healthier weight, but stop acting like it's out of your control; It isn't. Be. Accountable.
So clear and concise .... you've cut through all the bs. You're an honest man. Thanks and God bless ✨️✨️✨️
Great video as always mate!! I found your channel a week ago and I've been watching a ton of your videos since. Big ups James!!
Your fish and chips story was genius. It's what stuck with me 😂
You always explain things in such a different and understandable way, with a little bit of humor. 😊❤
I started watching you about 2 months ago and you are the main reason I got off my arse and started working out again. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for a "get to the point take" on all this calorie / exercise / use your body daily routine we all need to adopt.
This is why I follow this guy! I appreciate people like him calling out the BS
It took me trying to gain weight to finally realize why I could never successfully lose weight.
I was always fair active but would constantly yo-yo diet. Eventually, I fell of the bandwagon completely and gained 150lbs
I underwent a bariatric procedure, and lost a tremendous amount of weight to the point where my surgeon asked me to try to gain some weight.
So I dialed back my workouts and ate a little bit more. I felt super energetic throughout the entire day, way better. Step on the scale, and I actually lost weight.
And it finally freaking clicked. I had more energy and was running around all day long.
All those years, I would busy my ass in the gym and then spend the rest of the day half passed out on the couch and starving.
No wonder I could never maintain. Work out to strengthen the heart and the body. But NEAT is how you lose weight and keep it off.
It took me decades of trying different diets and workouts and life altering surgery to figure it all out. I hope somebody reads this, and doesn’t have to learn the lesson the same way I did.
This is the best thing ever !! I was laughing so hard thinking you had gone on a massive fish and chips tangent until BOOM, it had a perfect point. Thanks James. Love your work
I absolutely love the tangents this man goes down while talking. Its truly how my brain works and its so nice to see a irl version
Dude... this was brilliant... spitting fitness/fat loss truth bombs whilst pouring in a generous portion of humour... keep up the good work
The best information and the best delivery. James straightens me out and I am also howling w laughter.
One of the best videos I’ve seen on this topic! We have way over complicated thing to the point people rather not try! Everyone should watch this
Love the no nonsense approach to this stuff.
I know what I need to do, but occasionally I need a reminder and kick in the butt.
This man is 100% correct...and in nowhere is he wrong. Mr. Smith is a breath a fresh air. I learned that walking 3 X 30 minutes per day for a total of 90 minutes, was the KEY to getting lean. That level of movement not only burns lots of calories, but it gets your blood sugar levels under control, which makes you crave less food and sugar. 90 minutes of walking per day also gets Leptin and Ghrelin hormones in the brain functioning in top form with helps with hunger and satiety signaling from the brain.......which along with controlled blood sugar, makes healthy eating more doable and fun. Cheers to this channel and to James Smith.
Just give this man an Oscar already. This is absolutly true information, delivered as digestive as it can be and funny af.
Stumbled across this guy and i think he's great. Love the approach, tells it exactly how it is without any bullshit.
Bro. Loved your message from the first few seconds. Respect. You are a G.
James man you're an absolute legend. I don't love many videos on TH-cam, but I do yours. Honest, genuine, informative, hilarious. Awesome stuff mate keep it up 👍
Dropped down to 1 healthy meal a day (mostly, but not religiously), drinking plenty of water and walking more. Seeing massive results, but no idea exactly how much I've lost because I'm just trying to make it sustainable, and sustainable for me doesn't mean living on the scales, or staring at a spreadsheet all day, it's just getting on with my life. When I've dropped down to a weight where I feel like hitting the gym, I'll probably start some training. Love your no crap approach, James - I've been taken in by the people you speak of in the past and it never did squat, and it wasn't until I saw this video a couple of months ago that I realised the NEAT stuff is far more important.
Well said James. Thank you!
One of the best videos you've done!! Fair Play Dude
Just from an education standpoint, I really love your use of the weights to give a visual of how calories are expended. It's quite effective.
Yes. Colorful visuals are always effective I think.
Absolutely correct,
10kg down!
What did I change? 15-20k steps with me 3 dogs vs the 5-7.5k I was doing.
I am not even hungry yet the weight comes of as if its nothing.
Awesome video, that's what I've been saying for years, it is not in the interest of the fitness industry to make people understand the principle, because once they understand it, you cannot say that they lost the weight due to your awesome, totally new carb cycling method. It was definitely the method, and not the fact that they cut out that half loaf of bread and that 800 calories from their diet, that they have previously eaten, every single day.
I just need to set this as my alarm in the morning and I will have not trouble getting up and working out! I am so glad I found your videos!
Thanks James. Always good to watch your videos. You share a lot of good information in an easy to digest way and you also have me chuckling often throughout. Wishing you all the best
This was the reality check I needed. Thank you!
Thank you James this makes so much sense being in an industry that is not 9-5 I have always struggled. So thank you!!
Love the content and delivery. This is gold stuff.
I often say, "Trish, I expected more from you." 😅
You can do better Trish!! 🤣🤣🤣
Such a good video I am forever telling clients that come to me for 1 or 2 sessions a week to loose weight that basically unless they sort out their diet and stay in a deficit they are not going to loose fat by training 2 days a week
They will feel stronger get fitter which is why we train and they just don’t get it.
The way you explain it makes it so clear.Will-be sharing this video
You crack me up mate! Keep them coming!!!
Man, you are amazing. I wish everyone in the world (especially the USA) would listen to you!!!
I have been watching my calories but also making a concerted effort to keep moving all day. Having an active dog helps lol. It’s working! That’s all it takes! ❤
🙏
I know the information in his videos but I continue to watch them anyway just because of his delivery. Such a fun presenter
Spitting facts as per usual. Love it.
Fantastic, simple and obvious information that needs to be reminded.
James, you are a brother from a different mother. I just cant help but smile.
❤️ thank you!!! The simple and clear truth.
Loving your videos lad , your bang on about everything. Diet is the hardest part I find.
When I exercise regularly (e.g. weight lifting for 45 minutes 3 times a week) my eating habits change a lot without putting in much conscious effort. I stop craving junk food and my appetite goes down despite needing a bit more energy overall. I think this is the general experience from what I've read and heard.
When exercise is recommended for weight loss, I'd like to see the effect on appetite as the main reason. If you start thinking about the extra calories you burn through exercise and how low that number is, you'll just end up disappointed or overexert yourself and get depressed and discouraged.
Interesting. Certainly for me, and I assumed the majority of people. Regular exercise makes me much more hungry. That’s why I find tracking calories in to be such a useful tool.
This is me for sure. I crave food, but I crave protein and veggies and stop craving sugar, which helps me lean out.
Same for me.
Loved this video! So true and people need to listen
I don’t think one ever forgets being bullied! My bully’s name was Sam among others, he, in particular was the worst …he pushed me off my bicycle and took his hand and grabbed me by the back of my head and shoved my face in the dirt. It was truly the most humiliating experience of my life. I got up praying nobody saw thinking that I must be a horrible person for someone this popular in our school to do this to me. I never told a soul until just now. It never leaves you when someone does that …you build your life around it subconsciously but usually you become successful and they turn out to be losers. Lol Karma is😅 a bitch.
My bullies names were Sarah, Michelle, and Hannah. Nowadays, and 1000 miles away, I have 2 friends named Sarah and Michelle. Funny how that works.
Love the "yellow plate" lesson! Great video! Thanks.
Like the legend Dr Jason Fung says, eat less etc to lose fat, go gym to train your heart
Love your style bro keep up the great work
Yes!!!!! 🤘🏻 sick of listening to people eating 800kcal shake plan and killing themselves in the gym and wondering why they feel like they are dieting their lives away! Hoping I can be half as good as you in helping people make a positive sustainable change to their lifestyle. Much love ❤
Omg that was me when I did the Cambridge one2one diet
Did you key something before this James? Absolutely legendary as always, been following you for years, bought the books & the TH-cam videos are class. Keep doing you 👊🏻
This is why my fitbit that I got for Christmas was the best gift ever. I could see with my own two eyeballs, how depressingly few calories exercise burns. This is also why I lost weight during Christmas in the US, while I wasn't eating great. Because it was my first cold Christmas, and I was going for walks, cleaning the house etc. Versus me in Seychelles, doing the same workouts, eating healthier, I gained weight. Because it's so flippen hot on this island, that I wouldn't come out of my room.
That daily activity of sweeping the floors, doing the washing, making the bed.. it all adds up!
Thanks James:) loving this content please keep it going.
thank you for the honesty....I've subscribed on the back of it :)
my favourite vid, subbed. nice one
I just love your videos, message and delivery 😂
Wonderfully said 👏
Spot on! Excellent analogies!
Really enjoy the content and have watched for a while. Surprised i wasn’t subscribed until now. Gonna check out the app, your work seems very transparent.
Most sensible advice I've ever heard about this subject
Brilliant James, quality public information!
Lol, the chip shop monologue was hilarious. Thank you!
How refreshing to find someone who cuts through the BS and gets straight to the nub of the issue without trying to profit from it. My recipe for weight loss. Daily walk of 3.5-4 miles at a reasonable lick whilst wearing a 10kg weight vest. I am down 20+ kilos (from 99kg to 77kg) in 6 months. Appetite has diminished as a result so eating less - try and keep junk to a minimum. Not difficult - just requires a little discipline to develop the daily habit and then stick to it. Subbed.
Thank you for your video. You're very sincere. I appreciate it. 🙏🏻
I'm just bloody happy I tripped upon this video...smart about fitness, blunt facts with no sugar coating, a few f-bombs and several sides dishes of humor... Calorie-free straight talk is golden... Except for the fact I'm now craving fish and chips..! 🌹
You are _hilariously_ brilliant!
The fish and chips killed me!!!!!!!!!
When he did that American accent I thought, "Fuck! Is that how we really sound?"😂
Walking is the thing that's made the biggest difference for it me. Recently I pulled my quad and then my groin and haven't been able to walk much. I'm eating the same calories minutes the exercise of walking about yet I'm no longer losing the weight like I was before.
Normally I will go to the supermarket 3 times a week and get one bag of shopping at av time. I walk to the gym which is around 15 minutes, walk to the supermarket 5 minutes then back home swapping hands with the shopping to make it a farmer's walk home 20 minutes. Getting a takeaway I can walk there in 10-15 minutes. Weekends in done with the gym and will go for a 3-5 hours hike in the hills.
Can't wait to get back to it all again and be that active
Brilliant video, love your TH-cam channel 😍
I have never heard it like that way :) example with those bumper plates ,but I love it bro :) ! spot on
James is like a coach from a Guy Richie film. Nice content, thanks!
Best videos on TH-cam chap, great information and funny as 👍🏽
Glad you randomly came up on my TH-cam instant sub .. quality work
Wow! I'm dying laughing over here. How have I not found you before today? This is quite possibly the best explanation of cal in/ cal out and what's happened to the conversation of overall health that I've ever heard.
Great informative no BS video, thanks it's easy to get caught up in the mainstream rubbish that's being pumped out.
I simply stopped counting calories and just count my daily protein and I'm still losing weight.
I use IF, omad on carnivore. No veggies needed.
I have lost 115lbs and feel fantastic since I started 1y ago.
Great video and yes these are useful tools.
You HAVE to get the processed carbs and sugars out of your system if you ever have hope of profound success in losing weight and keeping it off. Just don't forget to keep your electrolytes up.
I am largely vegan and eat potato chips. I count my calories. I can run 5k in 18 min and can press 150 12 times fairly easily.
@@Quiet_Now I weighed 300lbs when I started. Never counted calories and never hungry.
Last year was doin 0 push ups now I'm doin 100 3 times a week easily.
I just started back at the gym and I'm regains my lost strength fron not exercising for nearly 20y.
I been jogging 1m in 10m and I never jogged before. My goal is to do a 5k by next year.
I been learning loads of fitness stuff and bene implementing them. Iam 40 and feel better than I did in my teens/early 20s.
Starches, processed carbs and sugars make my appetite ravenous so I avoid that stuff.
On carnivore I can eat 150 - 200g protein and that can hold me over for 48h - 72h.
I'm happy for your accomplishments and I look forward to matching what you have done exercise wise.
This is true. Keto works because it gets rid of the cravings and therefore gets us on a calorie deficit unknowingly (aside from the other benefits). I never feel hungry on keto. Sometimes I just eat because I know I have to.
I like the “listen Biatches” approach. Thanks dude ❤
I really enjoyed that rant toward the end.
And this is why I love James Smith and I’ve been doing his program and I’ve seen changes. So frigging simple really lol. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🤟🏼😂
Love your attitude and your impersonation of American accent is spot on! I am so fucking confused by all the same things you spoke of in this. I was one of the fattest kids back in school and picked on and not one of the fattest adults as they became today. I’m not as carnivore as I used to be because of the confusion. This video came around at a perfect time. Thanks for the information. It’s a gut punching reminder that exercise is important!!
Bro, you're 100% right, no fluff, no bs, no excuses
