I needed this video!! I lost 125lbs between 2018 and 2019. And I've kept it off until the last year when I put back on 10-15lbs. I felt so guilty. I freaked out. So many people said I'd gain my weight back. I've struggled the last year, feeling like I'm failing. But as you said, I'm not. Just need to regroup. I don't feel good at the 10lb gain so I just need to chill and work to get it off. I know how to. Just need to do it, not be so analytical and paranoid. Just relax. I feel so much better. Going to favorite this video and watch it when I feel insecure or I'm doing something wrong next time

I love that you are promoting healthy weight loss by reinforcing that no food is off limits. I have lost weight slowly, but consistently by tracking/counting calories, but NOT restricting any food. If I want the pizza, I eat the fucking pizza. But, I usually don't since I know I CAN eat it. It was my game changer from years of yo-yo dieting.

Been doing this fitness thing for 9 years and it’s still easy to get in my head - patience and trust in the process is everything! White belt for life.

You make more sense about how to live a healthier lifestyle than anyone I've ever listened to. I'm 65, and have tried more ways than I care to remember. My mindset was "the more restrictive, the better". I've had short time successes, but never long-term. I've been following you for about 3 months or so. My perspective is taking a shift on how I eat, how much I really need to exercise, and how to take the fear out of dropping the overly-restrictive lifestyle that wasn't working for me. My weight is slowly decreasing, and my energy and sense of well-being is increasing. Thank you for sharing your balanced approach. It works!

I think most people (myself included) think eating in a calorie deficit as something you do for a period of time then you’re done. So if you can race to the finish and get to your goal weight you can relax and go back to eating how you used to eat, but maybe in smaller portions. I’ve been listening to your podcasts and it has REALLY helped me with having foods in my pantry that I used to not be comfortable with being in my home and it has helped to shift my mindset about how to eat in a calorie deficit and at maintenance. I appreciate you saying that this is a lifelong thing and we are always white belts. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your insecurities. I’ve always operated under the premise that you don’t comment on anything that is out of a person’s control (e.g. height, shape, skin, any visible or audible health issues, etc.). Whenever I hear stuff like what you described about being told you appear tiny in person always blows my mind. Like you said, she most likely didn’t mean it in a negative way, she just didn’t filter herself or think about what her words were conveying, but it still kind of blows my mind.

Thank you so much for doing this video!. I appreciate your view on the scale as collecting data. I’ve spent the last 6 months “broken up with the scale” because it had become my “live or die by” as you put it in other videos. Your insight on the fluctuation and stand still of the scale during your mini cut was so insightful especially when so many other trainers live by that number for their clients and in explaining it. I finally feel as though I can look at the scale objectively as another way to collect data, just as I look at how my clothes fit or my progress pictures look, and a big part of that is thanks to your because of explanation and raw honesty around the scale!

Then I started analysing my calorie intake, weight and my lifestyle and things began to make sense. It's exactly like you said here and in your IG stories. I noticed the spikes and fluctuations and it blew me away. It took me years to figure out that sweet spot, where I don't feel restrictive and can still train and recover very well, and it's sustainable. I can't tell you how liberating that feels. ❤️

I actually love your system for maintaining to allow life to just happen. I’m a long way out of long term maintenance but it’s nice to see a plan that doesn’t argue that any gaining means you haven’t found your right weight yet. And I love how you encourage life even in a deficit. I’m just getting past four months of exploring the Intuitive Eating movement and I just can’t get on board with all their arguments or the IG influencers that pretend all the eat is ice cream and donuts all the time to maintain a smaller body.

What an incredible message Jordan! It took me many years to figure out what you explained so clearly regarding weight maintenance/fluctuation. I tend to be more like the style of Susan in keeping myself within a 2-3 lb range, but it requires sacrificing things like alcohol regularly, which at this point in my life are not a big deal. That would have been a hard pass when I was younger! Consistency wins over perfection in the long run, always. P.S. I believe that having quality people in my life and a spiritual practice is very important for my overall health. I would love for you to do a video on the impact of relationships and spirituality on physical health/longevity. Thank you for everything!

I have fallen into the cycle of hitting it hard with my workouts, being super strict with my eating, then getting frustrated because I didn't lose 20lbs in 2 weeks, so I throw in the towel with both! Thanks to your advice I am taking it back to what I know works: eating in a calorie deficit, drinking water, walking, doing my favorite strength training workout DVDs, and trusting the process!!
