You're approach to dieting is perfect, you don't need to tank your intake or cut anything out, just change overall quantity and quality. Have bad habits, eat something unhealthy and tasty, have a cheat meal, have a sugary drink or a few alcoholic drinks. The key is to make these things rare rather than common

I’m so proud of you. Most people would have quit by now but you have pushed through. I really hope you reach your goal of 220, god speed brother!

Hi! I'm a girl in a weight loss journey too!! I just want to thank you for being an inspiration trough this process, I'm really glad that you share your results and motivate us to continue!!! (Im learning english, sorry for the mistakes) have a good day everyone 🤍🤍

Hey Brently my name is Josh. I just started my weight loss journey again last week. I am already down 6 pounds. Originally before I started losing anything I was 420lbs at my heaviest. I was miserable. I then lost 40 pounds going down to 380. I then fluctuated up and down to where I was sitting steadily at 395. I started this second part of the journey at 385lbs and I am now 379lbs. Calorie deficit is the most important factor in my weight loss. I go to the gym 5 days a week Monday-Friday at 5am. Monday, Wednesday, Friday I go to the gym twice a day. It helps with my energy output and keeps my mental health better. Thank you for the inspiration to get back into the habit of working my tail off!!!

Man... I've seen you all over shorts and finally decided to come check it out here and you give me such a healthy dose of reality and positivity about my weight loss. I started at 260 and I'm going for 180. Your positivity is absolutely infectious. You've made so much progress, it's really inspirational. You seem genuinely happy about where you are in your weight loss journey and where you're going and I think I need some of that. My weight loss is like... purely motivated by self hatred and I feel like that can't be healthy for progress because I simply lose faith in myself and stop believing in myself. Did you ever struggle with this? What did you try to overcome it if so? I am subscribed now to watch your journey! You got this man. My mom ran a marathon and she was like 50, can't wait to see you cross the finish line.

I come by every now and then to see your progress. It’s crazy how far you’ve come, keep it going Brently!

Greatly never give up! Please dont. I'm also unhealthy and watching you makes me confident in my self, now I'm losing more pounds!

Love the addition of the background music. You’re always so inspiring and positive, I look forward to your videos. ☺️

Someone who gets the confidence and knowledge you have while losing weight (i typically see it once they fully accomplish the goal) is absolutely unstoppable. You are an inspiration

You are looking a lot better Brently ❤

I haven't personally had any issues with a restrictive diet. I'm doing keto, down to 297 from 342 a year ago. In that year, I've taken nine cheat days- Thanksgiving, Christmas, a six-day vacation, and a celebration of one year on keto. In those days, I was able to eat and drink anything I was craving (craft beer, pizza, Indian food), but to be honest, my cravings haven't been severe. Whenever I take a cheat day again, not that I currently have one in the plans, I want to have sushi. I miss it, but I have no problem waiting to have it. I think two things have helped: my love for meat and cheese, and keto substitutes. There's keto bread, keto sweets, protein bars, zero sugar sodas, and low carb beer that all ensure that I don't feel like I'm really missing out on much. Also, the fact that I already feel like a completely new person makes me very excited for when I get down to 250 or 220, and that excitement is far stronger than any cravings.

You're inspiring so many people AND improving yourself, wicked awesome dude you're doing great.

Brently, thanks so much for keeping us updated on your weight loss journey! You’re an inspiration, my guy. 👌

Hiiiii! I absolutely love climbing for me it is a super fun way of exercising that doesn’t feel like work! I highly recommend that you try it as soon as you want to! You are such an inspiration and as someone who isn’t trying to lose weight but still wants to work out more you are the best inspiration I have ever had to get stronger tysm!!!

I went through this journey and a lot of what he said is very true. I was 365, now 212 all in a little over a year. I don't know what program he's using, but I did mine through Weight Watchers and what I liked about it was that you weren't exempt from eating anything. So what he said about not cutting anything out really resonated with me. Keep doing well Brently! You're doing great!

1:30 idk, to me I found it useful to just don't buy my favorite cookies or chips, but like 3rd or 4th favorite, so I won't just devour them all in one sitting. Of course we right now only talk about 10months since I last ate them, but so far I succeeded at not only buying them but also picking the different sweets when in social gathering with those on display, so I think it works for me

That's awesome (about the aesthetic) thanks for answering my question :D Also DO MORE Q&As! They're super fun

You're fantastic Brently and you're going to achieve everything you're aiming for. Great effort!

Just dropping in brently, good on yah! Stay strong and you are inspiring for others! 🍻

no issues with the music, but it was slightly loud!

I’m not sure how you developed your wisdom, but I will say you seem to understand yourself and the human condition fairly well. Not just inspiring, I think you are sharing some profound insights that can be utilized in the entirety of someone life, not just weight loss. Congrats and good luck on your journey Side Note: I’m a pretty avid climber. Some places have motorized winched in the ceiling to provide support/safety to new climbers who are climbing with ropes. Besides that, any normal belay person can provide a weight offset by leaning back or squaring down slightly. This can help alleviate enough weight to make climbing feasible for that person!!

My guy you've made so much progress it's crazy, Keep going!

I absolutely love the one piece reference!!! Good for you you have done so good!!! Keep it up 🫶

Great seeing how far you’ve come and how you’re looking. Numbers with weight doesn’t matter too much. Go to where you feel your healthiest and looking good. I’m chunky and also Abit muscular at the same time, so I can’t go off my weight too much, personally. I can see your chest is developing well, keep going, Aloha B

Is that Vivaldi in the background? Love the classical music, I do hope it's a theme. Congrats Brentley I've been following your journey from Greg's channel, you definitely deserve the subscribe. Great to see someone who's genuine and educating themselves. I thought my recent 100lb journey back was a long hard road, I can't imagine how great you feel. I actually never comment on these things, thought you deserved a boost from the algorithm. Keep going Brentley, we'll all be watching and cheering you on!

Truly an inspiration to all. Keep it up man!

So inspiring bro, keep going!

Thank you for answering my question. I am a marathoner and a swimmer. Practicing any sport its an awesome goal, that create discipline and endorphines. Losing weight, trainning and then, be part of a sport team helps a lot for support. You can do it.

my man if you wanna get into running, nike run club has these amazing guided runs. coach bennett has a level of positivity similar to yours and i reckon you'd vibe real hard with it! best part it's free and there's no catch. i think it's just there to encourage people to buy more shoes haha here's to another amazing year for an amazing bloke!

Amazing work bud

Gratz to you brother. Keep up the good work

Nice bro u made some great progress proud of ya

Dude your happy positive whatever attitude rocks !

Brently your progress is looking incredible. When you jumped, it was super clear that you've evaporated a ton of your fat. When you decide you've reached your fat loss goal, the next step will be the loose skin. Have you considered what you will want to do?

Dude you are so close! Keep going

Escape a jaguar😂that’s hilarious. Good on you man ur rocking it.

Its a great thing youre lifting weights too i think at 220 youll have an amazing physique once thr muscles youre building will start getting visible...your transformation is inspiring and admirable....best of luck my brother

Also you remind me alot of john candy more so in the face and the humor. You make alot of people happy and inspire. Much love from another big guy

so happy for you man keep it up

Great video, but the music is to loud

The second question is a testament to just how little people understand about weight loss even when it's literally the simplest thing to understand. Mulligainz explains it best. Listening to flogs who say you must not eat X/Y/Z isn't the way to go. I'm down 15kg (gained a bit over the holidays, was down 20) and my eating habits have remained almost the same prior to this journey. The only difference I've made is I count my calories. I remain in a deficit as much as I can. VERY few days do I eat over my allowed calories. Some days I eat little during the day and can have even more of what I love to eat at night. Or whatever. The point is that calories matter, foods do not. Stick to a general macro goal per day, try to meet it, don't worry if you go over or under. Just worry about the calories. If you're in a deficit, you're losing fat. It's quite literally this simple.

I have had a similar experience. I have been told by most of my friends that my diet is actually pretty healthy, but even I couldn’t fathom some of the things I’ve seen fitness influencers try to push. Weight loss always seemed unachievable to me when I was younger because everyone made it so complicated and it makes you doubt yourself. I’ve seen fitness influencers say “don’t do this exercise” “don’t eat this” etc. and all of it is wrong. The best way to lose weight is to approach it as what works for you and you have to remind yourself that as long as you stay consistent it is guaranteed to work.

Love your hair!

Keep it up bro you're going great so far 💪🏻 Love and support from Turkey 🇹🇷 I would like to know if you plan to have a skin removal surgery. It looks like the excess skin is limiting your movements, and getting rid of them will make you progress faster in your weight loss journey.

I love q&a's especially from brently

Good points made to lose weight, strictly and easy going its ALL up to YOU. If you want FAST results go strict and dont enjoy food for a while or take your time and lose it slow with simple diet changes. If you want it you’ll make it happen!

hey bro, just wanted to say I love the vids and your story

I mentioned 180 in a previous video but yeah at 6.4 220-230 sounds awesome Keep on rocking on

Climbing gyms are amazing and its about consistency you will get better over time

This man is a beacon of positivity. Brently, my guy. Just remember that everyone has a different optimized body weight based on their height and build. Don't go for numbers. Go with what gives you the best day to day performance. 👍

Salute to ya mane, I hope you can get an aesthetic body like me when you get in shape soon so you can attract women.

I definitely recommend running and cardio for fat loss. I ran high school cross country for a few months and probably lost like 8% bf.

I believe in your goal !!

Looking great Brently! Do you think you're going to do skin removal after your around 220?

I recommend club training. 5lbs club in each hand as a start, swing them like youre attacking with a weapon. (Just dont use em as one 😊) You can add footwork to make it an all over thing. Do club training when standard dumbbells get boring... and it can get boring.

I’m at 8:53 right now listening to your weight measurement issues. Do you happen to know the accuracy of your scale? Most scales will have a +/- percentage rate for accuracy. For people of larger stature, a 1% wiggle can translate to weight readings of 3 pounds over or under your actual weight combined with normal daily fluctuations in weight through sweating/bathroom usage etc. just something to consider(: I love your content man, you are an inspiration to me. I have the opposite problem, I am at 157 and have to eat a lot of gain any weight but eating any of the wrong thing can set me back days because of my intestinal issues. Love seeing people apply discipline to their issues and getting results, keep it up! Can’t wait to see more stuff(:

As someone of size myself if your still struggling with the weighing issue is you gotta wait a day weigh yourself in the morning thats the peak and don't keep weighing yourself throuhout because its just gonna be everywhere and you should see those 7 pound differences

@LodesDipper

This is a golden rule. It’s important to get all the waste removed from your body and weigh in when you first wake up because it’ll provide the most accurate weight. It’s also necessary to not put so much emphasis on what the scale says. Water weight and food that has yet to be fully digested will make it appear as if you’re not losing or even gaining weight when it’s not really true. One last thing I heard that many recommend is taking the average of every day’s weight for a week and comparing that week to week to see what’s really going on.

Very good video. I just wanna say at 130 I can also lose a pound in an hour. I have 3 theory’s. When 2 or more are in effect they can DEFINITELY make you lose a pound at least. 1. You weigh yourself then take a poop or pee or both. Granted not every dump is a pound, but even like close to that weight plus all the sweating involved in some of the crazier dumps can probably make it happen. 2. You weigh yourself on a non-digital scale. On my scale if I lean forward on to my toes the dial goes down a few lbs. so I always make sure to weigh myself on the ball of my feet. Mostly cause I want to feel like I’m actually gaining weight. Since my goals are to bulk. 3. Because you are heavy doing simple tasks like walking or picking up up laundry is going to make you burn some kind of calories. For some one small it’s not a significant amount since I don’t have much weight to go against, but when you do those smaller tasks it IS harder and burns more calories. P.s. my buddy is gonna flip knowing you watch One Piece. Mfer has been waiting for me in Wano.

can say I've never heard The Great Line used as a comparison. v interesting way to explain it

What are you gonna do with the excess skin? Have you tried looking into microneedling? Also, have you seen Andrew Huberman podcasts, Brian Johnson? I hope this would be useful for you, your progress is amasing!

love the shirt off q and a. show off those results BG~! BTW I go up and down about 8 pounds every day from diet and hydration ( i drink a gallon plus a day =8 pounds plus whatever food i eat) and i'm 185. not a big deal. as long as i weigh the same at the same time every day though. i'm not concerned.

w goals brently never stop grindin and no matter how many hate comments and videos get posted we will always love you♥

You can't weigh yourself constantly through out the day it's gonna drive you nuts lol I don't recommend. Body fluctuates a lot so you gotta give yourself time to hit that new weight. I always weigh myself every weekend preferably Sunday sometimes Monday. I allow myself a cheat snack or food once a day but I don't let myself over indulge if that makes sense.

Do you ever plan on getting skin removal after reaching your weight goal

Thumbnail had me thinking you won Publishers Clearing House.

i eat something sweet once a month. and i binge, but i am still doing well!

A guy your height and build, should´nt go below 245... I´m really proud of you and your progress! Huge respect from Denmark

I am a fellow climber and would love to climb with you, and its a common misconception you dont climb with your arms much you climb with your legs and back more than anything. Give it a shot.

I would go cycling instead of running, Brentley!

last line cracked me up lol

What did you look like before you gain the weight like when you were 16???Just wondering

I hope you don't get stuck on the numbers. You're probably gaining a lot of muscle, weighs more than fat. If you keep this motivation, it doesn't matter your good. hope it's going well. I think I saw you haven't posted in a while. i get excited to see your positivity when you come across my feed. thank you and hope you're doing well.

I always weigh myself in the morning, that’s when I seem to be my lightest. You should weigh yourself once a day. If you weigh yourself after every meal you’ll go mad because you yah you gained weight you just ate, food weigh ounces.

You should watch David goggins he helped me with stuff like this running and exercising he gives a lot of motivation 👍.
