As an Asian, I'm used to eating a LOT of rice. Reducing my rice serving to half a plate and filling the other half with proteins; like lentils, chicken, beef, and chickpeas really helped with weight loss. Also, I only drink water and a cup of sugar-free black coffee every day.

Fellow asian here, I had to eat a bunch of rice and meat for my judo training, along with sleeping 10 hours a day, I'm actually eating more and more now, I'm still growing so I want to eat as much as I can to get bigger and taller, its working so far, but I eat a bowl of rice with meat for every meal, along with oatmeal and eggs, bananas and nuts, and more meat, sometimes I have to just eat beef by itself to get my calories in

It’s kind of crazy that some of these foods look like a lot to eat, and some not so much. Naturally, it goes to show that everyone’s bodies and energy consumption are different and influences your mind to know just by looks if foods look like a lot or not.

What a great visual guide. Guiding us through his favourite vacation places. Loved it!

Thanks so much for this measurement of how different foods can affect our caloric intake!

Thank you! Love how informative your videos are. Your delivery is so clear and concise with a no-nonsense approach. 👍

Thanks for this video bro! Would love to see more foods in future videos to come! This was awesome to understand nutritional value from typical foods.

I'm just getting started. Thanks for sharing! Definitely helps put things in perspective. 😊🍎

Such a smart video with everyday products we can all relate to and confront. I like his approach of not demonizing everything/everyone because we all know to some degree most of these items aren't good for us, but he gives us the information and the visual aspect so our common sense can work for us.

Thank you Chris for visually showing us! A lot of times we don't think about what we're eating and how much we're eating. So it's a great wake up call. My husband would make comments about chocolate and cookies and giving them to kids. He would say the cookies are bigger than their hands or that donut is bigger than their face. It really puts it in perspective! So we use those foods as "treats", not an everyday thing!

What did you do with the food? After shooting the video?

Having some level of knowledge about calories and nutrition is just so important to live a healthy life. There is so much bs being spread demonising specific food items or groups. You can eat a cookie or drink a bottle of coke sometimes. As long as you keep your average/long term calories and nutritional balance in check you will be fine.

Add more broccoli

This is great perspective. Just wanna give some advice to people wanting to lose weight, please don't start off by instantly changing your diet to chicken and broccoli. Most of the time, a drastic change like this only leads to giving up and failing to be consistent weeks later. If you're morbidly obese and unfortunately even bedridden, start by analyzing what you eat and simply removing bits from it. For example, if you eat an upsized McDonald's meal, simply don't upsize it. Pair this with some movement whether it is air punches or hip mobility or even rolling around in your bed. If you're obese but can move, do the same thing but perhaps walk just a bit more. Even 5-10 minutes of extra walking is a huge improvement. Similarly, eat something like 1 donut instead of 2. If you're just overweight, you can start reducing junk food in general. For example perhaps instead of 2 meals that aren't the best, have 1 junk food meal. If you snack a lot, maybe 1 bag of chips, change that to half a bag. Of course, add in any exercise that is doable and maintainable. Lastly, for people that don't have difficulty keeping to a diet, maybe reduce the portion of your carbs, use less sauce, drink less liquid calories, and replace unhealthy food with low calorie vegetables. And as usual, exercise. Preferably not too much anaerobic exercise like sprinting etc as you actually need to oxidize your fat in order to burn it, meaning you need to be able to breathe. So if you would like cardio, steady-state cardio with proper breathing is fine, or you could do bodyweight or go to the gym. Often times, increasing your muscle mass by strengthening your muscles also increases your metabolism, making it easier to hit deficits. Hope this helped.

Thans for the visualization Chris, it’s crazy to see how so little food can amount to so many calories. Thanks for the calorie to protein, fat and carb conversion, that’s a handy thing to know

thx for sharing this Awareness about calories rate in different foods, really helps to stay healthy.

Hey Chris, I just started my fitness jurney this year and began to research about nutrition. One question I have is: Is it true that ur body can only absorb like 25-30g of protein every 3-4 hours? And wouldnt that be a problem, if ur meal had like 50g of it?

@itstabularr

4 ай бұрын

its fine, your body will eventually absorb it, it will just take a while. It also depends on the type of protein you eat. And btw 3-4 hours is bs, 30-50 g of protein can be absorbed per hour depending on your metabolism and protein consumed👍

8 oz of cooked chicken breast has 70g of protein, and 8 oz of raw chicken breast has 52g of protein. the problem is that he didnt specify whether it was 8 oz before or after cooking. the water weight lost in the cooking process drastically changes the density of protein per oz.
