    You and I are going to drink a lot of coffee together. Like, borderline dangerous amounts of coffee.
    So, first things first. Pour yourself a mug and I’ll introduce myself real quick.
    My name’s Jordan - but everyone calls me “J” - and I’m a 27th degree black belt in chugging coffee.
    I’m also strength & nutrition coach, I hold several powerlifting world records, and I’ve been fortunate enough to have my writing featured in a variety of outlets like CNN, the Huffington Post, and Schwarzenegger.com.
    But listen.
    This channel isn’t for fame, publicity, cash, props, fist bumps, likes, pings, pows or whatever else there is.
    It’s a place where you and I can chat.
    I’ll never sugar coat, lie, or beat around the bush. I’ll tell you everything exactly as I see it. Some stuff you might like. Others you might not.
    And that’s totally cool.
    Either way, my goal here is to create a discussion. A place where you and I can get together, exchange ideas, and motivate each other to be better every day.
    Like I said, we’re gonna drink a lot of coffee together - borderline dangerous amounts - but I’m excited. Because there aren’t too many online communities in which the sole purpose is to inspire and motivate one another.
    And that’s exactly what you and I are going to do here.
    To your success,
    -J

    I've just tuned 40 and was sitting at 255 lbs. I started walking 10,000 steps a day on January 30th. I have added light weights three times a week, a kettle ball routine twice a week and I jog on the weekends. It's March 13 & my current weight is 235. I have also changed my diet to a more nutritional one usually getting in around 1600 to 1800 calories, while still enjoying my occasional craving. I also keep an eye on my macros. This can be done if you dedicate to it. Thank you so much for the videos and advice.

So I'm not counting calories very closely because it triggers me, but these things to watch out for help me restore a sense of intuition and connection with my body.

I am using your advice on how to intuitively eat, and now my strength as gone up with my powerlifting, and the scale is going down. I also don’t obsess and just enjoy food how.

    At the beginning of my journey, I lost 7 pounds, and then went into a month long ‘plateau’ and quit for like a month. I then went to a dietician for a keto type diet because I was convinced I was insulin resistant. Although I lost weight while I was seeing them, the most important thing I learned at the dietician was that, if I actually tracked my calories while I was keto, the weeks I never lost weight, were the weeks I was over eating and not in a deficit. Needless to say I quit the dietician and have lost 6 pounds since then while eating all the carbs.
    Long story short: Calorie deficit #sortinghatsquad :)

    Hey Jordan! This has seriously come at the best time. Since stumbling on to your channel back in October, I have spent the last few months just tracking and getting my head in the game. Not consistent in calorie deficit, but I needed to work on my head first. I'm now tracking everything (not just the good stuff) and despite a minor wobble where I signed up to a shake diet (facepalm...) I'm finally in a position where consistent calorie deficit is something I can do without my head trying to sabotage. I'm mostly CD now, just with a few Christmas celebrations that, for one, I'm enjoying and NOT beating myself up for - they were conscious decisions I've made. I've also not gone over my CD on days where I had celebrations - I just made the choice not to indulge those days - I've NEVER done that before, I've always treated Christmas as a big free-for-all. I've committed to the next 90 days post Christmas (literally have the Harry Potter 2020 calendar on the wall for those circles and x's) and can't wait to share how I go with you. Thank you so much for your no-nonsense (and also much nonsense!) approach and finally giving me back the confidence that I'm not a special butterfly, I just need to stick to it and it will come. Again, thank you. #sortinghatsquad

    Appetite is is usually mistaken for hunger.
    Because we have so much food available 24 hours a day, we never allow our stomachs to completely empty and then we eat when it’s “meal” time instead of when our bodies are ready for more food.
    I can ALWAYS tell I’m in a calorie deficit, because the first day or so I actually hear my stomach growl and that’s something that NEVER happens without me making an effort to curb my calorie intake.
    Love you.

    The hunger u get while u re in a calorie deficit is because your stomach capacity is bigger and in it fits more calories than your body actually needs . If you re in a calorie deficit means you wanna lose weight ,if you wanna lose weight means you re fat ,if you re fat means you eat too much than your body actually needs so....u make deposits of fat !
    Well .....!thats why u re hungry in a deficit ...cause you eat less than you actually are used to . 👍🏼💪🏼
    But only a thing i could say to all of you
    NO MATTER WHAT ,NEVER GIVE UP !
    Did ur deficit today have been a fail ?! It s okay ,tomorrow and next days u can make it ! If there s will to make it ,you ll make it !!! Have patience and dont be harsh to uself .... Take it slowly ,also the weight u gain ,u didnt gain it overnight ,so u cant expect to lose it like that fast .

    Deficit, Patience & Consistency are the 3 tips things you’ve instilled in me since finding you! The 90 day consistency calendar/pass or fail daily tracker had helped me soo much! Can finally see why where I can improve! I take the total days I passed my calorie target within 100 calories and divide that by days of the month & can see that I have not even been 80% consistent with my deficit. Now it’s time to focus on improving that! Thanks J!

    It’s just confusing when you’re first getting started because every website gives a different number for what your calories should be.

    Consistency.
    Patience.
    Do what you gotta do when you are not motivated.
    These are my weaknesses!!
    After I lost 40 lbs, I lost my focus. I have been somewhat maintaining my weight. But I still have 25 lbs to lose to achieve my goal. I am watching your videos to get these 3 qualities that I need!

    Thanks for this! The basics really aren't that hard, but man keeping all this in mind over months and months and months (it's been a year for me, 65 pounds down, maybe 30 more to go) can get exhausting/frustrating. Have to mentally slap myself around sometimes and get out of the "ALL THE WEIGHT SHOULD BE GONE ALREADY, FRICK" mindset. Oh, also #sortinghatsquad

    I have been binge watching your videos and sending your Instagram profile to so many of my friends. I love your message and your style. For the past month I've just been focusing on staying consistent and in a calorie deficit. The difference between this time around and previous times, is that I am in a reasonable deficit...because like you say, it's not a fucking race. What am I hurrying for? Your down to earth approach has seriously done so much to help me work on myself and fix my relationship with food. It's honestly empowering. #sortinghatsquad #ravenclaw

  • @kaleidoscopicmind5
    @kaleidoscopicmind5 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’ve been doing keto for 5 months maintaining a calorie deficit. Definitely experiencing a lot of this except for the increase hunger and tiredness . If anything I feel sharper than ever. Patience is what I’m still learning. I’ve lost 30 lbs during this time and I’m like wtf why isn’t the weight melting off exponentially?!?! But I’m figuring out that at the end of the day it’s all about patience. And I have no other option. If doing it is giving me “slow” results then not going it isn’t going to get me any results. That’s been the hardest lesson but your reassurance has given me a new wave of energy to keep pushing 💪🏽

  • @josilynperez9657
    @josilynperez9657 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    For 3 weeks the number on the scale did NOT move in the right direction, it actually moved the tiniest bit *up* and I was so frustrated. Thank God for my belt, if not I would have given up. Making new belt holes was a way for me to know that things were progressing.

    • @Siegbert85
      @Siegbert85 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Imho weight is the worst way to measure your body fat, unless you're overweight. Weight can fluctuate just by the stuff you've eaten or drunk.
      I'm using the Navy method to calculate my body fat. Body weight isn't even a factor that will change the outcome there.
      I know what waist circumference is good for me and that's what I'm going by.

    For hands and feet, I thought you were going to say : "you'll start to see your tendons and veins more." That's definitely something I notice when I get leaner.

    I know that I appreciate it so much. I’ve been up and down (usually DRASTICALLY) with my weight my entire life. I’ll be 40 in 2020, and for the first time, I feel like maybe, just maybe, I can get it together and lose weight, keep it off, and feel good about the entire process. One week in, and going strong. So, thanks for that. 💜🦄

    simple rule. No beating about the bush. If you start to see abs when you tug your tummy in shows you are on track and need to carry on as you were doing and even try occasional intermittent fasting. Lots of people don't feel hunger.
