I literally spit out my coffee with laughter when you said that about being so hungry you might “eat the neighbors kids or gnaw your arm off”. Great video!
Down to 164 lbs from 207 lbs (43 lbs total) with help from your videos. A real life saver for me was that vid where you looked at how much weight you can actually gain from overeating occasionally...it really put things in perspective for me as a chronic perfectionist. Thanks a lot :)
Question about hunger levels: When you reach your weight loss/fat loss goal, do you then automatically experience fewer hunger signals because your body is now needing fewer calories to maintain homeostasis? Thank-you for driving home the point that it's no reason to panic if you experience hunger while in the calorie deficit! Wondering how that adaptation process works in the long run.
Very well made video i really needed to hear this … no one ever addressed this issue … thanks Eric as always you are practical and fantastic ! We have a lot of reserves so no one will starve in a simple calorie deficit if they are overweight !
Really needed this, i have had a rough week with no weightloss while my lovely husband lost 1 kilo! It really feels discouraging but i will keep going! Great advice by the way as well.
I guess since I have a culinary background and since mid June on Father's Day started to meal prep it's easy for me to weigh out ingredients. Example, we served a chicken Alfredo and had to portion out like 4oz of chicken 8oz or something similar of pasta and bag em for consistency because we ran a cafe on campus for students etc and in a restaurant environment that's key... My wife is also joining me on this journey so I meal prep 2 different meals and average about 2-3 dinners per meal . I don't break down macros (yet) but I do weigh the total food ie ground beef, or 2 chicken thighs etc and the veggies and starch as a whole and then divide each one by the number of meals IE total weight of potatoes, chicken thighs etc and get the bulk weight cooked in grams and divided by the number of containers etc.. My biggest go to that I've always done when cooking breakfast for a crowd is always an egg bake, large frittata or whatever you wana call it. I use almost a whole jug of egg beaters at 25cals per serving vs 78 in a large egg . Use a whole package of Jimmy Dean turkey sausage, (i dont count veg like bell pepper, onion or tomatoes and then a portion of cheese ie o buy a bag of shredded sharp reduced fat cheddar at 90 cals per serving when 1 serving is like 1/4 cup, and i may use up to a cup and when dividing everything bu 8 slices in my 9x13 they equal out to about 275 cals per slice. I like to add potatoes which may add 50cals etc but still round up to 300 cals per slice and 150-200 for 1/2 cup of oatmeal and im still sitting below 600 cals for breakfast. Take those 600 at a higher estimate and most my meal prep dishes max out at 800 cals and I definitely have a good 400-500 cals to even hit my "extreme" 2lbd a week on calorie calculator website and im using the no exercise results. I often likely ealk at least a mile at work and off days I jog a mile but I am rounding up on caloric intake and likely minimizing my choices under the activity level. Since mid June to right noe early Oct BOTH my wife and I are down about 25-30lbs and we aren't struggling or eating air for meals.. quite the opposite and I feel sometimes like ee could be going even more strict. As far as sweets I'll eat a Snickers ice cream bar for dessert or a cookie etc at 170cals per snickers bar but im still at a deficit and it helps get that fulfillment effect. Anyways sorry for the novel but I agree with the assessment on the video
Thank you for sharing that information in the end. How going on a calorie deficit to lose weight-that it's NOT FOREVER! None of the other TH-cam channels that I have watched shared that one missing piece of information. I believe it's crucial to understand that counting calories is not going to be permanent . Once you achieve your goal weight, you can utilize the skills and knowledge you've gained to incorporate them into your maintenance calories. Thank you, Eric Roberts!
Eric, I am in a calorie deficit, and I make sure to count the calories right and use a scale but I am not hungry, I eat high protein meals, and I am seeing everywhere that it's normal to be hungry in a calorie deficit but I am not. I feel like I am doing something wrong
I try to drink a few cups of water before I eat to help me feel more full. So far at 2000 cals for supposed 2lbs a week I feel like it's easy to eat that goal throughout the day without feeling too hungry.. sometimes mid way through an evening work shift i get a bit hungry but yah. Personally i like to weigh myself once at the end of the month sometimes twice a month. Seems like the lobger you wait the better your average is obviously
I lost 18 kgs / 39 lbs doing OMAD. Fat at 60% was the key for me. 23 hours of no kcal intake - you get use to it. Just embrace the hunger - it comes and goes. If you get too low on kcal intake - you'll wreck your metabolism. Better to increase your NEAT.
Yo I feel you. While the scale says im down 30lbs the instantly noticeable change is my clothes. Shits fitting looser, i usually get a 3x in shirts but this website that sells band shirts maxxes at 2xl and i was like fuck it and the 2XL are fitting lile my 3xl and my 3xl are starting to fit a little too sloppy.
Do you have a video about how to eat and workout to loose weight? I need to loose 50 pounds. I am trying to workout 4-5x a week… 40-45 min. Body weight workouts. How do I know what cal deficit I should be at?
Fewer calories, not less calories. Fewer is for plurals. Less is only for when it's a whole. E.g. I have less energy than yesterday, not I have fewer energy than yesterday.
New to checking out your videos and have found them to be helpful thus far! I just burst out laughing about "2023 super bowl was rigged"....You sit on a throne of lies! #ChiefsKingdomOnMine!!😆

This is great advice!🤘

I have the same question 🙋🏻♀️
Same. I'm not hungry.
Go plant based! Plant protein stays in your system longer and is 100x healthier than dead carcass protein
Same im eating more protein than I ever have before while in a calorie deficit. I never get hungry in fact it turns me off from eating more.
As long as you're consistently losing weight at the expected rate, you're golden bro..
Mini cut looks good on you bro! Looking strong
Absolutely
Loved this video!! Was very helpful.
So glad it helps man :)
The calorie range advice is SUPER helpful. Great video. Thank you.
This is my favorite of your videos. Thank you!
Couldnt wait to subscribe... on my weight journey and got alot of tips from you to take me through. Thank you
OMG this is such a great explanation of the TRUTH. Thank you!!!

You’re amazing honestly
I lost 18 kgs / 39 lbs doing OMAD.
Fat at 60% was the key for me.
23 hours of no kcal intake - you get use to it.
Just embrace the hunger - it comes and goes.
If you get too low on kcal intake - you'll wreck your metabolism.
Better to increase your NEAT.
How do you come out of a calorie deficit once you hit your goals?!?
Either you go to maintenance to go on a reverse diet to start bulking up.
Forget the scale. Love the way my clothes fit.
it's certainly not the only piece of data!
Yo I feel you. While the scale says im down 30lbs the instantly noticeable change is my clothes. Shits fitting looser, i usually get a 3x in shirts but this website that sells band shirts maxxes at 2xl and i was like fuck it and the 2XL are fitting lile my 3xl and my 3xl are starting to fit a little too sloppy.
I actually love the feeling of still being a little hungry after a meal. It's addicting... dont ask me why 😂😂
Do you have a video about how to eat and workout to loose weight? I need to loose 50 pounds. I am trying to workout 4-5x a week… 40-45 min. Body weight workouts. How do I know what cal deficit I should be at?
look up TDEE calculators
yes embrace the hunger tell ur brain to shut and burn these damn calorie off
oh damn LOL
I just drink water when I get hungry

Fewer calories, not less calories. Fewer is for plurals. Less is only for when it's a whole. E.g. I have less energy than yesterday, not I have fewer energy than yesterday.

So realistic
I fast everyday and most of those days between 10 am and 12pm I get so hungry😭
Bro you funny asf man 😂
I'm on a calorie deficit and what I can say without doubt is that you lose muscle mass
Make sure to eat 0.6 to 1 grams protein per pound of your weight. No carbs.
