00:00:00.000 You need to look at it. Well, and I was thinking I'm like, I mean, she's pretty big. She could have made a decent amount of money 0.57

00:00:05.340 She said $5 per pound. That's like 50 bucks for 10 pounds. I mean like I think she's 1.00

00:00:14.340 Terrible return on investment in terms of time spent no, but okay hear me out hear me out

00:00:18.880 Okay, she looks like like late 20s. Maybe okay back then when you were a kid like

00:00:24.700 That's a lot of money. That's a lot of money. I'm like that was a lot of money. Like I would have been excited

00:00:32.100 If anything, it was an opportunity for you know, you could get like cash

00:00:37.720 I was I was doing lemonade stands from a young age

00:00:43.100 I think the biggest problem I have with this weight issue thing is

00:00:47.980 We live in a society where people have kind of made it okay and I understand that you can be

00:00:55.460 Comfortable in your body. You can

00:00:57.620 Do all of that, but the problem with that is that if you look at reality reality always tells the truth

00:01:03.020 You can't escape reality. There's a reason why you don't see so many overweight old people 1.00

00:01:08.880 There's a reason for that. That's because they die before they get to that age

00:01:13.160 Most of most of the old people you see walking around are not overweight

00:01:16.860 So if if you can look at reality and look at the truth that is waiting ahead of you that just means that you you're essentially saying

00:01:24.700 That you don't care about your future you don't because I just find it weird like if I if I were to look out into the world and

00:01:32.380 See the face that men face 0.97

00:01:34.080 There's a reason why I don't do crime because I can look out into the world and see what happens to people that do crime

00:01:38.860 So it should be the same ideology we should take when when people are telling you or it's okay to be this

00:01:43.620 You can actually look out in the world and see the facts of reality because reality always told the truth

00:01:47.660 So I just think that people need to get off this bandwagon of

00:01:51.300 That narrative

00:01:52.140 Yeah, that narrative

00:01:53.000 I think it's very destructive to people because reality doesn't agree with that

00:01:56.880 I mean the irony of calling it like body positivity the irony there is you're actually you actually don't respect and love your body

00:02:05.200 Your body at all because you're not giving it what it really needs and you're harming yourself

00:02:08.640 You're not you're harming yourself and you're actually giving it the nutritious food and the exercise

00:02:13.140 That it actually needs to be its best and performance first

00:02:16.580 Did you know I applied to a body positive organization? I did a whole interview

00:02:21.140 I did

00:02:22.000 Yeah, and I I pitched in the interview that like the best way to be body positive

00:02:28.100 Um, and it was like a social media intern. I'm like I'm great at social media

00:02:32.220 And so I know I pitched it to him. I said the best way to be potty positive is to lose weight

00:02:39.120 So so on the social media, I would really like to do some like running campaigns

00:02:45.820 Like and I had all these ideas

00:02:47.980 They did not they um, yeah, they they actually ended the interview right there. I was

00:02:52.500 I was an agenda though, isn't it? 0.72

00:02:54.900 Yeah, to keep us fat, sick and easy to control. Yeah, well, and it's the government that's it

00:02:59.380 And they go to believe you're positive. I agree. Well, and then they can just sell us more stuff

00:03:03.620 Yeah, they can sell us the drugs

00:03:07.540 When you're overweight, you're actually at a higher risk of all-cause mortality. So it's not it's not a good outcome

00:03:13.780 Yeah, and you lost a bunch of weight, didn't you? I did I would like to say I actually was only that weight for a few years

00:03:19.780 And it's because I got depressed and in a hole put on a bunch of weight and then lost it

00:03:24.260 Yeah, about six stone

00:03:25.220 Wow

00:03:26.260 Well done

00:03:26.900 Well done

00:03:27.460 Congratulations

00:03:28.500 And that was like two years of my life the rest of my life have been in shape

00:03:31.620 I grew up with a bodybuilder father that is very strict

00:03:34.900 And if I kind of went out of the realms of weight, he would be like

00:03:40.420 Army, army

00:03:41.220 He would call

00:03:41.860 Army

00:03:42.500 I mean, yeah, he would be saying no, you can't eat that you can't do that right here's some chicken breasts

00:03:48.420 I mean bad advice, but back then everyone was like chicken breasts

00:03:52.020 What is there something wrong with chicken breasts?

00:03:54.020 Yeah, you don't want to eat chicken breasts. Where's the fat?

00:03:55.940 You need the fat for your to support your hormones. You need the fat. Yep. Oh, bingo 0.98

00:04:00.180 Wow, I didn't even know chicken. I didn't know chicken was bad

00:04:02.340 I thought there's not

00:04:03.060 It's not as cold as it's bad, but there's better choices

00:04:06.420 Yeah, if you're gonna eat chicken breasts really you want anything with skin on it

00:04:10.340 Okay, so wings are good. They're in

00:04:12.500 Oh, I love wings. I love wings

00:04:14.500 But not American wings covered in sugar

00:04:17.700 That's what you're probably referring to

00:04:20.900 So how did you find carnivore?

00:04:22.900 How did I find it?

00:04:23.940 Yeah, so I actually started with keto first

00:04:26.260 Okay, and I was keto for about six months and then I come across this doctor who I then became to you know

00:04:32.020 started working for called dr. Sean baker and

00:04:35.700 He was on joe rogan and I was listening to him and he was saying yeah vegetables this that and I was thinking this guy is absolutely insane

00:04:42.900 And um

00:04:44.820 What it did is it planted a seed and when I was eating my asparagus because all I was eating is meat and veg because I was keto

00:04:51.300 So there was no sugar. There was no junk. There was nothing

00:04:53.940 And um, that did a lot of good for my health

00:04:57.300 There was still some little things my body

00:04:58.980 I wasn't happy with my body composition things like that

00:05:02.260 Um, and then I started thinking oh hang on. I just ate some asparagus and now I'm bloated now

00:05:07.460 I feel this like I feel a bit lethargic, you know

00:05:09.940 There's all these downsides to eating the plants

00:05:12.500 I thought you know, I'm gonna try it. It's gonna go wrong. I'm gonna try it for two weeks

00:05:18.020 So I tried it for two weeks and I was like wow rush of energy clarity

00:05:22.260 You know all benefits and not only that first week, I lost seven pounds second week

00:05:26.500 I lost seven pounds and then after that I stopped weighing myself because I could start seeing my abs

00:05:30.580 I was feeling good about myself and this was from the what sorry, what was this from carnivore diet?

00:05:34.660 Okay, okay

00:05:35.700 It's not a starvation. So going back to that song majorly talented woman 1.00

00:05:42.020 Unfortunately, she has been

00:05:45.860 Given some information that's wrong

00:05:47.860 So her parents wanted to her to lose weight and her grandparents and you know

00:05:52.340 Whoever else in our family because they wanted her to be healthy

00:05:54.980 They were giving her really bad advice

00:05:57.060 That advice doesn't leave you to be an overweight because you're restricting yourself

00:06:00.660 I don't restrict myself. I eat about 5,000 calories a day

00:06:03.140 Is that after breakfast add 12 sausages?

00:06:06.900 And that's your intake?

00:06:08.020 Add 10 eggs

00:06:09.060 You know, you don't have to restrict if you're eating the human appropriate diet

00:06:14.980 Your body will do the rest

00:06:16.260 Did you go through a sugar withdrawal?

00:06:18.660 When you when you went on to the keto diet initially, did you go through any kind of withdrawal?

00:06:23.620 I didn't which is really funny because before that I was in my hole

00:06:26.980 And I was addicted to coffee and cakes. I haven't drunk coffee in about five years. I don't really drink alcohol

00:06:32.820 Occasionally for the first three years of the diet didn't drink any alcohol whatsoever

00:06:36.660 And last couple of years every now and again, I'll drink a bit of alcohol

00:06:41.780 But yeah, no, some people get keto flu and that's because they're not keeping up with their electrolytes

00:06:46.500 When you go on to a diet that's low carb or zero carb

00:06:50.020 Your body becomes really efficient at dropping the water

00:06:52.660 And with that you drop electrolytes. So you have to keep replenishing those to keep those

00:06:57.220 You know, and is that through just drinking water?

00:07:00.180 Salt

00:07:00.500 Salt

00:07:00.900 So basically what I do what I advise people that are starting out new is to take magnesium glycinate

00:07:07.140 to take salt

00:07:09.700 I usually use pink Himalayan salt

00:07:12.260 And it's a lot of salt. Don't be scared of salt salt is like as important to us as oxygen

00:07:17.300 If you if your salt if your electrolyte balances out, which is

00:07:21.220 You know your sodium your potassium and your magnesium you will have a heart attack

00:07:26.340 Right, so it's that important. You know all this scaremongering about salt is absolute rubbish 0.99

00:07:32.580 And so 0.78

00:07:33.860 What would you think of the song?

00:07:35.860 So I think that yeah, okay, they had good intentions because they wanted their daughter granddaughter to get better

00:07:42.820 They wanted us get healthy. They gave us some really bad advice. Yeah, and that bad advice leaves you to constantly thinking about food

00:07:50.020 So if you're

00:07:51.220 Replenished if you're if you're full of nutrients

00:07:54.180 You never think about food, right?

00:07:56.340 It's like you eat

00:07:57.780 You you're full up you go you don't have to keep thinking about it

00:08:01.220 I mean when I go out with people that are on high carb diets

00:08:05.140 Can you walk a little bit and they're like maybe we need some crisps?

00:08:10.500 Maybe we need some sandwiches now

00:08:12.900 Maybe we need that. I'm like, yeah, I've got my 10 eggs in my bag. I eat them. I'm good to go. I'm good for the day

00:08:18.020 You know, it's it's it's nothing

00:08:19.860 It should stop you from thinking about food. What do you eat in a day steak?

00:08:26.660 Okay, on my favorite days, I'll be in a lot of steaks. So sometimes I have two steaks for breakfast. Okay, and then what do you do for lunch?

00:08:33.460 10 eggs

00:08:34.020 Well, actually a lot of the time I start with 10 eggs for breakfast

00:08:37.140 It depends what I fancy I think when you eat on your diet, you should be able to do it intuitively

00:08:42.340 So when I wake up sometimes I need more fat

00:08:44.660 So I'll put some butter on there or I get their fattier types of meat 0.94
