Transcript
- 0:07SPEAKER_00: Let's talk just a little bit about discipline.
- 0:10SPEAKER_00: These videos seem to get the most views, and when I get hungry, what do I do?
- 0:16SPEAKER_00: When I get thirsty, what do I do?
- 0:18SPEAKER_00: Well, most people drink and they eat.
- 0:20SPEAKER_00: I understand that my best shape is coming from the fasting that I utilized all of those months, seven and a half months, very, very strict, to torch off 135 pounds.
- 0:32SPEAKER_00: Right now I've gotten myself to about 285 on purpose, believe it or not.
- 0:36SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I'm turning into one of those.
- 0:38SPEAKER_00: 285, I'm gonna cut down to 235.
- 0:40SPEAKER_00: This is going to be my first day.
- 0:43SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna start with a nice 72 or 86 hour dry fast.
- 0:47SPEAKER_00: So I'm going from today, which is Monday, to tomorrow, which is Tuesday, and then Wednesday, and then potentially Thursday morning, having some sort of liquid.
- 0:58SPEAKER_00: Probably starting with some water and then slowly having more water, maybe some coffee on Thursday, and so on, and seeing how the next couple days play out.
- 1:08SPEAKER_00: But that's going to be water fasting.
- 1:10SPEAKER_00: I rung in the scale just over 285 pounds last night, about 9 p.m.
- 1:15SPEAKER_00: That was on Sunday, the 11th of March.
- 1:17SPEAKER_00: Excuse me, Sunday, the 10th of March.
- 1:19SPEAKER_00: Today's the 11th.
- 1:20SPEAKER_00: So now I'm going to proceed into the next couple days.
- 1:23SPEAKER_00: I'll do short little updates, but one of the things that I wanted to talk about that people have questions about is how am I how am I able to stay so disciplined?
- 1:33SPEAKER_00: What am I taking?
- 1:35SPEAKER_00: Well, not taking anything.
- 1:36SPEAKER_00: It really comes down to me having been so fat that how fat were you?
- 1:42SPEAKER_00: I was 200, excuse me, 365 pounds fat with a 65-inch waist, fat, and wearing triple and quadruple extra large clothing and horribly fat and very uncomfortable.
- 1:55SPEAKER_00: Now I've been able to work myself up again to around 285 pounds on purpose.
- 2:00SPEAKER_00: And I'm going to torch off 50 and I'm going to see how quickly I can do it.
- 2:04SPEAKER_00: There are people out there and medical doctors too, potentially, that say you don't want to lose weight fast.
- 2:11SPEAKER_00: When I torched off all that weight in seven and a half months, what a motivator.
- 2:15SPEAKER_00: And yeah, I'm glad that I did it fast.
- 2:18SPEAKER_00: Maybe your medical professional will argue with you and say, you know, you're morbidly obese, you're a walking heart attack, but you really need to take this weight loss slow.
- 2:27SPEAKER_00: Believe it or not, folks, some of those super fat people, me included, could put on 20, 25 pounds in a month.
- 2:34SPEAKER_00: Why not take it off in that speed?
- 2:37SPEAKER_00: I mean, if you can put it on that fast, why not get rid of it that fast?
- 2:41SPEAKER_00: The torching of my body fat with the fasting was really the game changer for me.
- 2:47SPEAKER_00: So that's why I'm embarking on this because I want to get back down to that 230, 235.
- 2:52SPEAKER_00: If in fact I can, I've been lifting hard.
- 2:55SPEAKER_00: I've been working out very hard.
- 2:56SPEAKER_00: So potentially with the testosterone therapy, I'm not concerned about losing anything.
- 3:01SPEAKER_00: And when you even do the studies on caloric restriction versus fasting and look at those muscle loss tables, you'd be surprised fasting actually seems, at least what the studies I've read and I've seen online, listening to these experienced uh regular fasters and also dry fasts, it would appear that there is a lot less muscle loss, if any, when you're fasting versus caloric restriction.
- 3:26SPEAKER_00: And then above and beyond that, you combine that as a male, giving your hormones in check and taking testosterone, then you're probably going to limit your muscle loss to nothing, even when you're not eating.
- 3:38SPEAKER_00: They did studies with the National Institutes of Health.
- 3:41SPEAKER_00: I've seen those reports.
- 3:42SPEAKER_00: We're just supplementing, bringing somebody back in the correct hormone levels with testosterone, place muscle without working out.
- 3:49SPEAKER_00: There are a lot of studies like that as well.
- 3:52SPEAKER_00: Not that I would ever.
- 3:54SPEAKER_00: Testosterone therapy therapies, therapies, therapeutic.
- 3:58SPEAKER_00: I would not take testosterone therapy without working out.
- 4:02SPEAKER_00: Neither should you.
- 4:03SPEAKER_00: But definitely these are things to check with your doctor about.
- 4:06SPEAKER_00: But that's where we are with the current fast.
- 4:08SPEAKER_00: This is going to be a second video just kind of announcing what I'm doing.
- 4:12SPEAKER_00: It's 8 49 now on the 11th of March.
- 4:16SPEAKER_00: You want to do it, you can do it.
- 4:18SPEAKER_00: I did it.
- 4:19SPEAKER_00: I'm torching off now.
- 4:21SPEAKER_00: Now it's kind of fun.
- 4:22SPEAKER_00: Now you look at your body differently.
- 4:24SPEAKER_00: You look at your body as it's your mechanism, it's your tool.
- 4:29SPEAKER_00: It is your device to be able to go out there and do things.
- 4:33SPEAKER_00: It's much nicer to have the device in better shape.
- 4:38SPEAKER_00: It's nicer to be able to walk around less encumbered.
- 4:42SPEAKER_00: And I know these 50 pounds, while I feel great, these 50 pounds are going to be a lot better when they're not here, whatever the fat happens to be that needs to go away at this point.
- 4:53SPEAKER_00: Please stay tuned.
- 4:55SPEAKER_00: Please watch.
- 4:55SPEAKER_00: Please let me know via feedback and I will keep you posted.
