After doing loads of research, reading books, studies, opposing opinions , I've come to by biggest discovery yet 💫 For the most part, it does not matter how good your nutrition is, we all know what is healthy and what isn't, but if that was all you needed, simply knowledge, then we would have have this obesity crisis 🤒 People don't struggle with knowing what to eat, they struggle eating what they know they should 🙁 Focus on the psychological aspect of weight loss more compared to the scientific nutrition part. After years of dieting, I've realized that building psychological strength and willpower will do far more wonders for fat loss than any diet hack ever could 💪

I was reading a book recently and it mentioned a very great tip 💫 This was to add fiber slowly into your diet or else it could cause an upset stomach 🥦 Since fiber does not really get digested and it just passes through the gut, bacteria really loves to feast on it, if you add too much too quickly, the bacteria eating it may cause gas more frequently or you wont be able to digest it fast enough and it will cause cramps and bloating. Cramps are what happened to me when I ate too much fiber, try to bring your intake up 5-10 grams per day until you reach your desired goal 🥕

So it's quite a common occurrence that people go on the keto diet or some form of low carb and lose a lot of weight very quickly, why is that ? CARBS HOLD A LOT OF WATER 🌊 The reason you loose 5,10 or even 15 lbs in your first few weeks of keto is because when you get rid of the carbs, your body looses all the water that the carbs were holding, thus you feel lighter, become less bloated and lose a bit more weight 🥕 BUT THERES A CATCH 🫠 The weight you lose is NOT FAT, you can do this on any other diet and it is just a byproduct of keto and it does not mean that keto is the best diet for long term weight loss, if you stick best with keto then do keto, if not, then stick to the diet that works well for you 🥗 Personally I tried keto and I never liked it, I like tracking my calories, so it's all personal preference 👊

Another little quote from my own video that I am editing and wanted to share 😇 If you are very lean, and are binge eating, THAT IS NORMAL, that is a natural human response, to stop the binge eating, you simply cave in until you stabilize your body weight.🥕 If you binge eat and are not lean, it is an addiction and you must take accountability for it. The longer you blame something else for your binge eating, the more power you take away from yourself to stop the behavior and you give to an external force.👊 For help, read "Brain Over Binge" by Kathryn Hansen and "Allen Carr's Easy Way To Stop Emotional Eating".📚

I am creating a video and I want to quote myself as I believe my words may help some people out here. I said something along the lines of "Focus on consistency over perfection. When you first start dieting you will have slips ups here and there regardless, over time this does get easier but at the beginning, while you still have not built up that discipline and consistency, focus on building consistency first". This is very true, you will have slips in your diet here and there, instead of getting too down on yourself, look at the big picture, are you eating less calories this month compared to last month, if you are then there you go, you are on track to lose more weight this month 👊
