00:00:00.000 Sugar is sugar is way more addicting. Sugar is more addicting than cocaine.
00:00:06.080 You know that? Do you know that? I believe it. Do you know that?
00:00:09.760 I know you've never done cocaine, Pearl, but I've been to Colombia a couple times.
00:00:16.040 Let me tell you something. It's crazy how addictive sugar is.
00:00:22.400 And it's honestly, in the United States, sugar is in everything.
00:00:26.820 It's in bread in the States. High fructose syrup is in the bread.
00:00:31.980 There's sugar in every single thing in the States.
00:00:35.040 And that's the main reason why so many people are fat in the States. 0.77
00:00:39.560 Because everything has sugar in it. The salad dressing has sugar in it.
00:00:43.420 People are like, I'm going to be healthy. I'm going to eat a salad.
00:00:45.460 And they have fucking salad dressing that has sugar and all these seed oils in it.
00:00:49.160 So we're living in this kind of contaminant world.
00:00:52.400 But there's a lot of people making these breakthroughs and coming through
00:00:55.280 and understanding the fundamentals of nutritional science and putting it into food.
00:01:00.000 Thank God.
00:01:01.140 But the average person is just so poorly uneducated.
00:01:07.040 Do you remember the food pyramid?
00:01:09.080 Did you guys have a food pyramid?
00:01:10.360 I did it in school, but I don't remember.
00:01:12.240 The food pyramid said you needed to eat six to 11 servings of bread or rice a day.
00:01:18.740 Can you imagine 11 cups of rice a day?
00:01:22.160 11 cups of rice a day.
00:01:23.820 But do you know what?
00:01:24.460 It's your responsibility to educate yourself on nutrition.
00:01:29.740 I was dumb.
00:01:30.300 I trusted the government.
00:01:31.140 Do you know what I mean?
00:01:32.380 Don't trust them.
00:01:33.420 Years ago, I did, but when I got really fat, when I told you, when I went vegan,
00:01:38.220 I started looking at what is in the food and the ingredients.
00:01:41.480 It's up to you to educate yourself.
00:01:43.080 Yes, it is.
00:01:43.720 I'm going to show you that.
00:01:44.680 So unless you educate yourself.
00:01:46.240 But now that we have social media, it's become a lot easier.
00:01:48.880 But if you think about years ago, we didn't have this.
00:01:50.920 We had to trust the government.
00:01:52.440 We had to process.
00:01:53.620 You can question everything.
00:01:54.640 You know, now ketchup is considered a fruit in the food pyramid of the United States.
00:02:00.160 I'm not even joking.
00:02:01.700 It's process is the key word here.
00:02:03.920 It's processed sugar.
00:02:05.220 If it was from a sugar cane, if it was from a fruit, it's natural sugar.
00:02:09.920 So it's actually processed is the key word.
00:02:11.980 Not sugar cane.
00:02:12.960 Because honey is natural.
00:02:14.380 Honey, not true raw honey.
00:02:15.820 I don't know.
00:02:16.700 When I was a kid, I was also a chunky kid.
00:02:19.780 I lost the weight when I started sports, but the habits continued.
00:02:22.600 Do you know what I mean?
00:02:23.260 They persist.
00:02:24.940 Yeah, and I know how to make really good cookies from scratch.
00:02:29.160 And it's with all natural stuff because you're making it from scratch.
00:02:31.880 And that made me pretty fat.
00:02:33.800 So I think that's for sure.
00:02:35.080 It's the American.
00:02:36.680 I used to eat like half of the cookie dough when I was a kid.
00:02:39.680 And like the American diet, like the mainstream American diet is just so unfortunately unhealthy.
00:02:46.920 Like, you know, do you know which country has the lowest obesity rate in the world?
00:02:50.900 Japan?
00:02:51.660 No.
00:02:52.040 No, Australia.
00:02:52.580 No, no, not China.
00:02:56.040 I thought it was like Mediterranean food.
00:02:58.480 Iceland.
00:02:59.320 No, no, no.
00:03:00.240 It's Vietnam. 0.78
00:03:01.420 Oh, no.
00:03:02.140 Yeah.
00:03:02.560 And if you ever go to Vietnam, if you eat there, it's like, first of all, if you ever go to Vietnam, it's just like a giant, it's like a small city in a jungle. 0.51
00:03:09.840 And Vietnamese people eat so healthy.
00:03:13.080 They eat natural foods.
00:03:15.200 There's not a lot of GMO nonsense, you know, Vietnam has one of the lowest divorce rates in the world too, 7%. 0.61
00:03:20.820 Have you been to Vietnam?
00:03:21.520 Have you ever been to Vietnam?
00:03:21.620 Oh, that's the place I want to go to.
00:03:23.080 It's really awesome.
00:03:24.180 I've eaten Vietnamese food.
00:03:26.060 That's money.
00:03:27.200 It's good.
00:03:27.620 And I used to have a boy called Lina when I was in primary school as well.
00:03:31.560 He was Vietnamese.
00:03:32.140 Yeah, so like, you know, the food, when you eat there too, and I've noticed this because, you know, I travel a lot.
00:03:37.440 I'm like, I'm addicted to traveling.
00:03:39.140 But honestly, every time I go back to America and I start eating American food, I get like a bloated stomach.
00:03:45.640 Yeah.
00:03:45.840 I get digestion issues.
00:03:47.440 It's poison.
00:03:47.840 And I, yeah, no, dead ass.
00:03:49.880 It's poison.
00:03:50.480 Now that I'm vegan, if I ever eat, because obviously I've grown up on processed food.
00:03:55.360 I've grown up with meat, you know, and, you know, fish and all that kind of thing.
00:04:00.360 So when I go back to eating those kind of foods, it does, it affects me.
00:04:06.700 It affects my body.
00:04:07.680 I can, yeah.
00:04:08.320 I went to, I just went to the United States and every time I go back to America, I just have to eat Chick-fil-A.
00:04:15.240 I just have to eat Chick-fil-A.
00:04:16.780 But I eat it.
00:04:17.520 I eat a breakfast.
00:04:18.360 I eat like the Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich or I eat the, or the breakfast biscuit or whatever.
00:04:22.900 And then my stomach, I look like I'm three months pregnant.
00:04:25.200 Like it just bloats me up.
00:04:27.140 And I'm miserable for the rest of the day.
00:04:29.040 You're bloated.
00:04:29.900 You know what my trick is for me for that?
00:04:31.760 If I do eat something and I know I'm bloated, I have a waist trainer that I wear.
00:04:37.320 And I'm not joking.
00:04:40.420 If I know I want to eat something, my waist trainer is in my bag.
00:04:44.260 Can we talk about the health of that then?
00:04:45.960 We're talking about health.
00:04:48.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:04:48.820 Let's explore what waist trainers do for people and to people.
00:04:53.440 Yeah.
00:04:53.880 Right?
00:04:54.040 Because waist trainers, you know, they used to be used for posture correction.
00:04:57.820 Yes.
00:04:58.020 And you have like, you know, post-surgery garments like Farha's.
00:05:01.340 Yes.
00:05:01.900 But if you are just putting on a waist trainer and let's say you're wearing it for extended
00:05:05.940 periods of time because you're super committed to having a snatched waist, what is that doing
00:05:10.480 to your organs?
00:05:11.080 Well, I've been doing it for five years.
00:05:14.880 You know, honestly, I just...
00:05:16.560 Say more words.
00:05:19.140 I've been wearing it for five years.
00:05:20.620 I just can't see waist trainers being as big of a problem as obesity.
00:05:25.540 No, I'm not saying it is.
00:05:26.420 I'm not saying this to a comparable.
00:05:27.180 But I don't know what I'm saying.
00:05:28.260 I think that's why we focus on obesity a lot more is because it's just a way bigger problem.
00:05:32.860 You guys would always clown.
00:05:34.760 I'm so tired of the UK clowning on America for being overweight.
00:05:38.320 Because I looked up the stats and it's not that different.
00:05:42.460 It's not that different.
00:05:43.780 But US is massive.
00:05:45.220 US is massive.
00:05:46.420 But I will say this.
00:05:47.360 It's like, it's like, okay, I think we're like 70% overweight.
00:05:50.820 And you guys are like 60%.
00:05:52.460 I'm like, it's like that.
00:05:53.500 We've pulled up.
00:05:54.940 But I agree.
00:05:55.680 I don't...
00:05:56.080 I think they're in the hillbilly sides of England.
00:05:59.660 Because like in London, I don't know.
00:06:01.320 I was expecting to see a bunch of fatties here. 1.00
00:06:03.440 But I see gorgeous, good-looking women here. 1.00
00:06:06.320 I think it's because everybody's walking all the time here.
00:06:09.080 You know what I mean?
00:06:09.980 That's like when I first moved.
00:06:11.960 Yeah, Australians are pretty fat. 1.00
00:06:13.320 Like, I was...
00:06:15.200 I drove everywhere in Australia.
00:06:17.100 I moved here four months, 10 kilos, gone.
00:06:19.800 Because you're walking, right?
00:06:20.740 And I wasn't...
00:06:21.260 I didn't change my diet, nothing.
00:06:23.340 Everything was the same.
00:06:24.440 And I'm like, whoa.
00:06:25.160 25% of adults in England are obese.
00:06:28.760 It's like...
00:06:29.600 Isn't that terrible?
00:06:30.840 That's not bad?
00:06:32.040 Because like we're American.
00:06:33.140 Like, well, that's not bad.
00:06:34.180 Because we have...
00:06:34.640 We have 40% in the States.
00:06:38.340 US is...
00:06:38.920 I'm just saying we are 40%.
00:06:40.400 I know the fat stats.
00:06:42.360 I know the fat stats.
00:06:43.660 I got in trouble.
00:06:44.580 So I'll tell you, ladies, something.
00:06:45.600 I recently got in trouble, right?
00:06:46.640 Because I trolled chats once in a while.
00:06:49.040 And there was a girl that was on a show. 0.87
00:06:53.320 And no disrespect to her.
00:06:54.640 It is what it is.
00:06:55.860 But, you know, she was... 0.89
00:06:57.480 I mean, objectively speaking, she was a little bit on the chubbier side.
00:07:01.380 And I just wrote, who is this chubby woman? 1.00
00:07:03.840 And then I wrote, ha, ha, ha.
00:07:04.960 And then I wrote, she's about 40 pounds too heavy for me. 1.00
00:07:08.820 My personal preference, right?
00:07:10.080 And she was really, really, really, really upset that I said this.
00:07:19.240 And the reality is, though, like, if you look at her, like, her weight is still what it is.
00:07:24.480 But she, like, vilified me and demonized me. 1.00
00:07:27.940 She could have ran a marathon like I did. 1.00
00:07:29.840 You know, it's like, so I went to America and basically a girl got angry because I said she was a little heavier than I preferred for my sexual preference.
00:07:43.440 I think women were... 1.00
00:07:44.560 I've been offended by that, though.
00:07:46.020 No.
00:07:46.480 But how did you say it?
00:07:48.780 How did you say it?
00:07:49.860 What was the context?
00:07:50.660 I just told you the context.
00:07:52.200 I don't think it matters how he says it.
00:07:53.860 I think his women were too soft. 1.00
00:07:55.460 And we need to get thicker skin.
00:07:56.680 And especially if he's making fun of something that you can change.
00:08:00.660 Because we make fun of short men all the time.
00:08:03.340 And until we stop doing that, until we stop doing that, we have no right to tell men what they can and can't prefer.
00:08:11.580 But it was a peak America experience, too.
00:08:14.920 Because basically, I went to America and a fat girl got mad at me because she was fat. 1.00
00:08:19.900 Well.
00:08:20.960 I was just like, you know.
00:08:22.100 And that's the thing.
00:08:22.660 Because if there was no truth in that, you weren't a bit of angry as she was.
00:08:27.120 Did you trigger her anyway?
00:08:28.780 Oh, she was super triggered.
00:08:30.060 But did you trigger her?
00:08:30.940 What did you do?
00:08:31.780 We need to at least hear this.
00:08:33.100 Because a fat person would not get angry if you don't...
00:08:35.640 I wrote those three things in the chat.
00:08:37.400 That's all I did.
00:08:37.780 But sometimes the truth needs to be told.
00:08:40.180 Some people need to hear.
00:08:41.040 I agree.
00:08:41.740 And the other thing I don't understand is, like, celebrities like Lizzo will lead with their weight.
00:08:48.600 Yes.
00:08:48.960 And that's what she's leading with.
00:08:50.620 Because she's in these super scantily, like, she's wearing basically nothing.
00:08:54.860 And that's what she's leading with.
00:08:56.300 And then she gets mad when people comment on her weight. 1.00
00:08:59.100 Adele was overweight.
00:09:00.260 Nobody commented on it.
00:09:01.420 Also.
00:09:01.520 Because she didn't lead with it until she lost it.
00:09:04.640 Then they commented.
00:09:05.600 She's had a good voice.
00:09:06.440 And then they said that she might have not been well when she lost the weight.
00:09:10.380 Yeah.
00:09:10.980 That's like Fat Amy as well.
00:09:12.880 Like, she's known as Fat Amy.
00:09:14.260 But, like, she's lost all that weight and she looks amazing.
00:09:17.480 The one with the blonde hair.
00:09:17.780 Are you talking about pitch?
00:09:18.720 Perfect pitch.
00:09:19.300 Yeah.
00:09:19.700 That was from walking.
00:09:21.100 Yeah.
00:09:21.260 All she did was walk. 0.99
00:09:22.440 And even Lizzo, she wore, like, a thong to a basketball game with kids. 0.92
00:09:27.680 Nice.
00:09:28.040 But I think that's a separate thing.
00:09:30.020 She should have just covered up.
00:09:30.920 You look at her Instagram.
00:09:32.340 She knows kids follow her. 0.98
00:09:33.660 It looks like softcore porn.
00:09:35.340 It literally does.
00:09:36.280 I'm not up to that.
00:09:37.500 And it's like, it's like, if an Instagram model leads with her body and men call her a slut. 0.99
00:09:43.440 You've got to expect the criticism.
00:09:44.460 Yeah, yeah.
00:09:44.800 If you lead with, like, if an Instagram, even a thin one, it's like an Instagram model.
00:09:49.960 She's wearing nothing and then people call her a slut. 1.00
00:09:52.040 Well, you're leading with that.
00:09:53.340 So, let me ask you a question then.
00:09:54.780 So, I'm sitting here.
00:09:55.840 I'm wearing, I don't know what this is called, but it doesn't have.
00:09:58.480 A boob tube.
00:09:59.300 Boob tube. 0.72
00:09:59.860 There we go.
00:10:00.260 I don't know my fashion.
00:10:02.940 So, if I had a smaller chest, people probably wouldn't pick up on the fact that I'm wearing
00:10:08.900 a boob tube, right? 0.99
00:10:10.520 But because I have breasts and they are quite large, someone might go, oh, she's got big 1.00
00:10:15.300 boobs and she dressed a bit funnily. 1.00
00:10:17.940 Like, she's putting her weight out there.
00:10:19.700 Am I putting my weight out there or am I just wearing clothes?
00:10:22.900 I mean, I would say you're putting your boobs out there. 1.00
00:10:25.320 Like, if you have them out, yeah.
00:10:26.920 Are you putting your boobs out there? 1.00
00:10:28.200 I would say no, because I'm not built the same as you.
00:10:30.900 Okay, so it's subjective then.
00:10:32.540 No, it's based on what we can see.
00:10:34.580 So, if you can't see my boobs and we can see yours. 0.94
00:10:37.540 But am I leading with my weight based on what I've put onto it?
00:10:40.060 I wouldn't say you're leading with your weight.
00:10:41.700 I'd say that, like, your boobs are very, like, they're owls. 0.92
00:10:44.320 Yeah, they are.
00:10:45.280 Lizzo is way more sexualized than you are right now.
00:10:47.940 She absolutely is, yeah.
00:10:48.760 We're not saying that.
00:10:49.740 We're not saying you're that.
00:10:50.680 But one point is valid, though.
00:10:52.160 If you see a woman walking down the street in that top with your size breasts compared 1.00
00:10:57.200 to someone with a 32 AA, you are not going to look at that woman in the same way.
00:11:02.680 Same way.
00:11:03.540 I just think the other woman.
00:11:04.740 But I think life isn't fair.
00:11:08.600 I'm tall.
00:11:09.400 So, things are short.
00:11:10.380 Yeah.
00:11:10.760 I'll tell you a story.
00:11:13.420 When I was in high school, I got kicked out of homecoming because I had, like, a day to
00:11:16.880 find my volleyball dress.
00:11:18.620 And I couldn't find one that fit me because I had just waited too long.
00:11:21.660 And so, it was way too short and they sent me home.
00:11:24.220 And I could have whined and been like, oh, poor me.
