I was a preteen/teen in the 70’s. We ate cookies , bread and jam, drank pop etc. We did not eat ALL the time. When we did eat, after, we went outside and played for hours until dinner. We didn’t eat in between meals. Eating out was a treat. Maybe twice a year. We ate real sugar, not fake. Almost everyone was thin. So thin ,that people now would think we were too thin. Our mother’s cooked for us. It’s not rocket science.

I watched this entire video waiting for information about ozempic from Dr. Fung. I didn’t hear any “brutally honest” opinions on ozempic, or much, for that matter, about ozempic at all. I always appreciate listening to Dr. Fung. I don’t appreciate clickbait captions that draw me in and waste my time.

25 yrs ago, when I moved to USA, I gained a lot of weight. It’s not that I suddenly ate more here, it was the quality of the food, that I had no idea it might be different. Same problem with all my friends who moved here and even family members that just visited for few weeks, we all got bigger. In my country we simply didn’t have access to processed food, but also we didn’t have obese people. Of course it changed now

My husband is on Monjaro. He’s lost 80 pounds and started exercising regularly because of the weight loss. Hes healthier than he’s been in years

I’m just sharing my experience, I’m not an expert. I grew up with food uncertainty and my mom had an eating disorder. My views of food were warped. I’d go from eating as much as I could to starving for days on end. Every food choice I made was to avoid weight gain. And what’s really freaky is that I wasn’t completely unlike my friends. We all “splurged” and had to “be good.” But as an adult I just got sick of the mental and emotional toll. So I decided I would eat 3 meals per day, no snacks, no skipping meals. I did a spreadsheet of a bunch of meal combos and realized that if I stuck to the recipes I had outlined, it was impossible to exceed my calories. This has been a life saver. When I was so up or down w food I thought I must have something wrong w me. Addiction or something medical. But it’s all evened out. Every once in a while, I’ll get the thought like “oh that was so good, have another plate and skip the next meal” but I follow my one rule: 3 meals, no more no less, and those thoughts go away and hardly ever come anymore. It’s been healing tbh. I think a real problem for a lot of us is that food is marketed like a product, always advertising so we’ll buy more but we also objectify our bodies and this combo creates a living hell. Now I see food is my fuel and my body is my vehicle for life. For what it’s worth, this is how I’ve found peace. ❤️

I grew up in the sixties and seventies. Foods were sweetened with sugar back then. When food and beverage companies started replacing sugar with corn syrup (a cheap filler/ preservative) and also adding seed oils, people became huge and started getting fatty liver and diabetes at higher rates. Sugar is metabolized by every cell in your body. Corn syrup is only metabolized in your liver.

As a kid in the 70s we had McDonalds or fast food maybe once every 5 months as a special treat. Otherwise we ate 3 meals a day with a snack being fruit or a cookie that Mum made. We played with our friends making up our own games and never came in until it was dinner. Our parents always knew where we were and everyone watched out for each other. Any fights were settled between us kids and rarely was a parent involved or even knew about it. Today kids are used to being offended by the smallest things! You can't have a birthday party without inviting the entire class for fear of someone's feelings being hurt. Not everything is bad today ... it is like anything. Moderation! Too many parents are giving their kids the control and sending the message that they are just there to basically serve their kids every need. All my parents had to do was give me the "look" and I instantly knew to stop or I would not get to watch TV or play outside with friends. No negotiations! No actually meant NO. Okay I am done ranting. ✌

My brother in law developed severe, chronic pancreatitis and diarrhea after taking Ozempic for a short time - all to lose 20 pounds - and now he literally can't eat anything without getting terribly sick. Needless to say, he'd rather be fat! Beware!!!

Thank you Dr. Fung. I was 310 pds for the last 5 years with hip arthritis for the last 2 years. Fasted lost inches but never saw weight loss on scale. My physician was not really interested in helping me lose weight. After weeks of crying and beating myself up. I changed medical plans and went to a wonderful hospital new physician and Ortho doctor. They worked together to assist me in getting a hip replacement and losing weight. I was advised that I was obese and I qualified for the med Ozempic and I was put on it. And it worked wonders since October 23 I have lost lost so much weight, because I really lost my appetite But the best part is my Ortho Physician introduced me to your channel and eating healthy fasting and exercise. And I am so healthy with no more high BP meds. Had a full physical and I'm in good physical shape and will be having hip surgery soon. And I'm so happy.

My morbid obesity had very little to do with hunger. I was addicted to eating, to the food, to the satisfying feel for the few minutes before the horrid over-stuffed feeling. I was a mess. I don’t understand all of the emotional reasons, perhaps, but it was as heart wrenching pain in every way. I’m just a few pounds away from a “healthy” weight now. I’m eating high-fat keto. The excess skin is shrinking- it’s my own personal miracle than can be replicated by others. Dr Jason Fung and others spreading the good news is wonderful. After over 30 years in and out of Overeaters Anonymous, I learned not to rely on fads, shots, pills and other outside “cures”. Anything can help for a season, and then we deal with the damage of our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual selves. After all of that I had no real answers to stopping the addiction… until now.

"if you think about it" is one Dr Fung's most common ways of starting a sentence. It makes me smile every time.

Dr Jason Fung is a legend and a blessing to humanity. Three years later I’m still fasting and doing OMAD - one meal a day. Thank you 🙏

I do think it’s a personal choice. My dad has diabetes and still eats processed carbs and sugar (he lost his left arm in a car accident due to a diabetic blackout). My brother(overweight and smoked) and mom (who classifies as obese) have high blood pressure (bro had a stroke that left his left side paralyzed at 39). My parents still smoke. They don’t exercise and they eat whatever they want and are on meds. I was raised by them, we live 5 minutes apart. Environment is not the problem. I still exercise everyday and avoid fried food, avoid sugar, don’t smoke, cut back heavily on alcohol, not on meds. I pack my lunches and snacks to have healthy foods outside of the house so I don’t depend on takeout/ fast food. I chose to educate myself and avoid unhealthy environments and influences. If I chose to let my environment control me, I would be like my family🤷🏻‍♀️ I had to undo so many bad habits I inherited and train the good ones I created.

nobody mentions that overeating on the mental side is caused by anxiety.... also constant hunger can be a sign of insuline resistance related illnesses.

It’s so crazy to me how many of us will just take a drug to solve a problem with NO concerns at all about the consequences of using pharmaceuticals. There is a cost to your body. You can’t just alter our natural bodily processes without a price.

I was convinced for years I couldn't lose weight unless I had surgery or diet pills. I was sort of guided into this idea that obesity is a condition that can't be fixed with healthy habits, I'm not sure where that started but it had to be early 2010s. Two years ago I decided to lose weight the classic way. I've lost 90lbs by myself, no meds, no injections, no surgery. Just reducing calories. No exercise, even. I have 15lbs to go. I still eat fast food. I just eat less. I still eat cookies and sweets, just less. I don't even track calories. I just reduced portions and sizes. It actually works.

I’m post menopause. I started eating MORE real food and exercising at least 1 to 6 days a week… I lost 40 pounds basically by not dieting and doing fun things and not stressing about it..

Dr. Fung’s research has been a huge part of my healing from severe, lifetime obesity and the metabolic diseases that were the result. Grateful to him, his research associate Megan Ramos and entire team. They have changed my world with their proven, DOABLE, scientific approach to permanent healing, nutrition and habit change. Their books and teaching show the way. There is HOPE.

Quit sugar 100%. YOu'l get the ozempic effects without the costs, gross needles & or causing shortages
