    "Low fat" is a industry word to misslead the masses I used to subscribe to the low fat thing but then you are still eating ultra processed food labeled low fat for me the one and only this that has helped is eating food as close to its original natural form as possible, you bet your bottom dollar they are putting kids on ozempic next it's pathetic check out " glucose goddess " my favorite line from her is "fiber is natures ozempic " nor Metamucil like we think of when we hear fiber but simply fruit veg if you eat fruit veg especially before a meal it helps block the glucose from even entering the bloodstream helps to coat the mucus also sugar microbes crave more sugar the secrets of the gut on Netflix has completely helped me think of food differently it is literally either ultra processed or healthy you can follow low fat but it's still the garbage and industrial ingredients that help cause obesity in the first place just my own learning no judgment God bless you all on your own journey

    Forcing is not a good technique, however my own anecdote is... when I didn't eat something on my plate my mother didn't fuss or say anything. She put the plate aside. Then when I got hungry again, she would present the same plate and said i won't be getting anything else until I finished what was on the plate. So thanks to her patience, I don't have any food problems, I can eat practically anything put in front of me. My sister was more difficult, but my mother put it also into perspective for us. She took us to homeless shelters showing us to be grateful for what we were given because many have much less...

So if he crys and wants his way its easy to give in to him she is trying to keep him her baby for as long as she can. I was the baby of my family and when i came along my mom was tired I did not walk till i was 2 years old everyone carried me. My mom let it slide I was her last baby to walk talk. Sometimes kids can drive you crazy with the crying and having a fit. And she is a busy mom its easy to say yes

    I'm taking a Poverty & Nutrition class at my uni and they made a very interesting point that we usually imagine a very skinny person when we think of people who are food insecure but in reality they can also be bigger set. We also tend to think they "don't miss a meal" but actually cheap/affordable food tends to be unhealthy and whatever they can afford (junk food) stores up. The correlations between obesity, poverty, & food insecurity really go hand in hand... it's much deeper than a "eat something healthy" especially in the demographic areas of low income communities.

BUT we were poor so all the activities and stuff that cost money we couldn't do so we sat around alot. It wasn't safe to go too far from the house so we could only walk so far.

So 80% of your weight is determined by WHAT YOU EAT and 20% is attributable to the EXERCISE. I load up on 4 oz salmon, chicken, and beef only once in a blue moon; and TONS OF VEGGIES, berries & other fruits. Walking 3 times a day is also part of my routine. I have to live by the 80/20 rule because I’m 50 years old and only 4’ 11” …in order to maintain my weight at 105 lbs. I pray these children were able to lose the weight and live healthier lives. 🙏🏽

They buy a ton of cheap food, instead of just buying less food, and thinks they save money... Drinking water from the tap instead of buying soda or juice saves you some money. Baking your own bread, with rye instead of sugar and wheat. If you live in a rural area, and not in an apartment, there is probably some plot of land by your house where you can grow some veggies. Cutting out thing that aren´t really food, like chips, candy, cake, chocolate, ice cream etc also saves you a lot of money.

Healthy eating starts with portion control, and choosing foods you like that give that feeling of fulness while staying within healthy portions with what you like to eat based on your daily activity. Suggesting people eat low fat foods or "eat healthy foods" gives the idea that they have to abandon the foods they like for foods they may not like...which isn't necessarily true

I'm not saying calorie intake and excercise doesn't matter. But calorie counting is in no way paramount and my reply was in regards to what a healthy diet means. The truth of the matter is that our body processes different substances differently even if they are of the same calorie content and have drastically different effects on health and metabolism. Even sugars of equal calorie have different effects and benefits. In summary human body cannot be simply explained using basic physics it needs a bit of biochemistry too.

It's the biggest I've ever been and the most depressed I've ever been. I think a lot of my depression comes from having a very low self esteem. Because even when I had only gained 10-15lbs back in college, I became a recluse. I didn't want to be seen. And it's just spiralled from there. But I wanna get back to some kind of normal.

Unfortionaly, the 16, 18, 20, 24 hrs just kept me in a small narrow range, so I thought, I still have high amount of insulin to prevent anything, I need to fast more. Im currently doing a two day fast and in one day already Im down 3 pounds!! The funny thing is, my doc says losing 5 poinds in 3 months is good!! I thought, I can lose that in 3 days!! As for exercise, the doc did say that it wasnt good for losing weight, but it is good for muscle. I liked to do sprints on the track, not real big on long distrance, not sure why. As for "my plate", I only eat one a day, mostly protine, 3 eggs, sausage or baccon, small bit of hash brown and toast, and the doc says to cut my eggs, to one or two, because its protin, and cut back on meats too cause it has . . . wait for it . . . FAT in it/higjly processed . . . but mainly it has fat in it!! Suprisongly she said NOTHING about the hashbrown and toast with butter and jam, which i usually eat last anyway. I only drink water. I should measure to see what Im drinking. I think doc says 60oz a day. What half your waight in oz a day. I heard that a few years back. Oh this is funny: the doc says this cute little saying, and i love it!! Its something like: Whats on the plate determains the weight!! So my thinking was: Well if theres nothing on "my plate" I CANNOT gain weight . . . its PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIABLE!!

    In my country, industrialised and junk food was extremely expensive when I was a kid, so my parents couldn’t only afford veggies, fruit and some meat at times. My parents never bought us soft drinks or boxed juice, and we just got the cheapest biscuits at the local supermarket. When asked my dad to get us some Oreo -like biscuits, he would tell us he’d rather not purchase such a thing because he didn’t trust the creamy part that was the filling of the bickie. Having been raised in a third world country had a couple of advantages… My mum had me go to the supermarket by bike to buy veggies practically every day and that’s when I learned how to identify vegetables because whenever I bought something wrong, my mum would make me go back and buy the right one she had asked for.

    Haven’t watched it all, but I really feel bad for Jaylen’s mom. When my mom was a new mom and just gave birth to my older brother, she thought that everytime her baby cried, it was because he needed his diaper changed or that he was hungry. Of course, this meant my brother became a huge toddler (60 lbs at 2 years old). It wasn’t until she moved to the USA that she realized what she was doing and was able to reverse this. Still, he struggles so much more when it comes to controlling his hunger and suppressing his appetite in comparison to me (someone who has never been overweight). My mom felt even more guilt about how she raised my brother once I was born. I never had a problem with weight control because when I was upset and not hungry, that I would literally throw the food or drinks given to me. It took her a while to understand that sometimes babies just want to be held by their mom, and always blamed herself for not learning sooner so my brother didn’t have such a hard time with his weight / health.

    Brianna is so well mannered and respectful. A beautiful girl inside and out. Edit: People are really mean. Let us remember this is a child, who didn’t choose her parents and doesn’t choose her meals either. When I say she is beautiful, I mean she has the want to change. I see a girl who doesn’t feel beautiful, but knows what she has to do to, from such a young age! I see a girl with beautiful features, in spite of the weight. So when I she is beautiful I don’t mean we should coddle her with falsities to appease her ego. But to let her know that she is enough, her character and her charm are just as beautiful. As are her want for a healthy future. I see the girl she is and the girl she is becoming as one being. And to all the bullies: can we please, remember this is a CHILD. She does not have autonomy as adults do.
