  • I'm on a weight loss journey right now (Old me minus fifty pounds so far!) and your videos are seriously inspiring and just bring me back up when I feel like I've hit the dumps. Thanks, Shay!

  • i like the factory analogy very clever

  • we called them cherry pickers :P

  • wow he is fat here lool !!! shay luv u and good job !!!! yeah "old shay" just kiddin' !!

  • You're right Shay don't overthink it! just do it ,that's how i lost 75 pounds!

  • I've observed this new diet plans regime known as DietOramy (search on google) - my grandmother said she begun utilizing this and already shed several lbs, without feeling famished or even weary whatsoever... what do you suppose, has any1 ever done it yet?

  • spoiler much. Still love you

  • Love you shay!!

  • We call them Cherry Pickers in the Marines

  • so true, good advice Shay!

  • so im starting tomorrow. and im going to start from this video and watch all the others in order. my goal is to get to 160 pounds. last i checked i was 194 pounds. i love you shay and im going to do this.

  • @dafticaldandy how you doin so far?

  • FYI; I click on all the ads on bottom of your video hoping you are involved in ADSENCE so you get PAID!!! ALso I wanted to do a interview if I cant fly out there webcam to ask all the questions everyone wants to know..

  • very inspiring! you are right, I'm not doing perfect on the diet thing yet, but I'm doing much better than I was. I'm making better choices and working hard, and I'm getting there. You made me feel more confident that I can do it too. I have watched most the videos on your channel and you have lost quite a bit a weight since you started way back here. Great job, keep it up!

  • great analogy shay!

  • Oh my God, Shay, I LOVE the Shawshank redemption! :) Glad you brought it up as a metaphor for dieting, good example.

  • Body by vi is the best, Im only 13 and Ive lose 60lbs and starting to get rid of extra skin.. Great vids man keep it up.

  • Is it bad that I only eat 2 times a day and workout? Sometimes I feel like I loose more then I eat because my sleeping schedule is so messed up that I end up not eating much at night when Im ussualy awake

  • im doing it the biggest loser way,eat less and move more.cant wait for freaken week two

  • i wish i could meet you shay you seem like an awsome guy :D

  • Just eat fruit and milk for 3 weeks and you will loose alot of weight don't eat anything else just fruit and milk

  • @SuperRetardedkid that's unhealthy and you'll get ill,

  • @PureFunk13 habit of overeating. Anyways, if you do decide to do it, be patient, and be good to yourself. Such a cheesy ending. So much cheese. Good luck!!

  • @PureFunk13

    I'm a teenage girl, average, trying to lose weight too :) I'm finding it's a lot harder and a slower process, because I didn't have a huge amount of weight to begin with. I took up running (there's a plan called "couch potato to 5k", if you google it you can find it) and I've been eating smaller portions than I used to, and trying to cut out junk food with fat and tons of calories and replace them with veggies and stuff. I have been counting my calories for a while just to cut my h

  • I want to lose like ten pounds. right now im average weight for a teen girl but i dont feel totally comfortable with my weight yet.

  • i'm starting.

  • I agree with the food theory, some people told me to count calories but it's too much looking at the back of every single wrapper trying to work out how much is in like a gram lol, cant be bothered. It's just so hard, i feel like i'm totally alone Shay, i have nobody here with me but you to motivate me, it's been so unmotivating since you gave up on losing weight for a while, i mean i have my family but they don't help me at all with all the food :( your like the dad i never had to me.

  • @emmabee11 Also what's the news on the ecolie poisening in vegies? is it over yet? is it safe for me to buy some vegetables?. Around when it first started i got a bit of food poisening from all the lettus i was eating for a whole week, it seems half a plate of vegies with red peppers makes the weight just fall off me but i'm sure if i can buy any yet.

  • @emmabee11 you can just grow your own veggies without having to worry about ecol i as much. 

  • well i began in january 2011 and all i did was just cut out all bad foods like soda, candy, desserts, etc. i try to eat foods with little or no fat, but i mostly just worry about saturated fat. i tried not to eat any saturated fats for a while, and i drank 4-5 bottles of water a day. for breakfast i had a half a plain grapefruit and a piece of toast with an egg. now it is june 2011 and i have lost 43 pounds, now 140 lbs and i have been less strict on my diet because i can

  • I started a small diet (my own) and it is working really well *if you are interested*

    The first step was to cut 3 things: fastfood, soda and desserts

    Step two-=Adding vegetables (fibers cut hunger)

    Step three Exercice! (walking/bicycling/jogging 30mins a day)

    Just by following these 3 steps i lose weight easily ,All you need to lose weight is to spend more calories than you eat. Don't give up guys! You can do this!!

  • I feel the same about the "food from Mother Nature" thing

  • same blackbeltfire. im going this for the girl, im doing this for me, and im losing weight for the jerks that call me fat, husky,chubby, and over weight. so far ive lost 23 pounds. im glad ive lost weight and have seen changes. im still overweight though. im still trying my best and wont stop until i succeed. Shay you inspire me. And good luck to all of you guys.

  • You should make a facebook group for ShayLoss and make all the people participation admins so they can post their progress and talk to each other about how they're doing. It's a good idea. Do it.

  • dude i dont know you, but you are officially my favorite person! Today is day one of my diet! I hope that we can do this journey together! :)

  • love this blog.

    "best one is what you do"

  • i am doing this program called turbofire which is just a workout but i haven't got the diet down yet but will soon! :)

    & here in hawaii we say 'picking up pineapples 10x are you ready? ready!' haha idk why i said the whole thing but i started laughing when you said potato pickers :)

  • i was about 265-270lbs and im only 17 at that time and that was 8 months ago... now im 205lbs and loosing more :) i feel so much better and much more energy for everyday! :D WE CAN DO THIS! <3

  • Sleeping is a good way to loose weight :) and too much exercise is bad for your body too! <3 just saying.

  • @CrazyPspCamUser *at least 8 hours of sleep everyday. i mean.

  • Best diet is the type 2 diabetes diet it's how you're supposed to eat and its easy...3 meals and 3 snacks...15-30 carbs for snacks and 30-60 for meals...eating healthy and complex carbs is obviously better but I lost 100lbs eating frozen food and not that great food...also didnt work out but had a pretty active job

  • this inspired me so much

  • GO GO SHAY RANGERS!

  • wow :) you are very very good!!! I follow your channels and you always make me smile (thank you for that :) ), but I'm seeing here that you really have a point! the way you take life is really inspiring! go on being like that!!!

  • i need to gain weight, but i had been going to the gym to work out like 3 times a week. i havent weight lifted in like a year, so ima try my best to do that =P

  • hey shay. i have about maybe 5 pounds of weight i could lose. im following you cuz your my idol. so when im thin, and someone asks "omg Whats Your Secret?!" i can proudly say "SHAYLOSS IS MY SECRET"

  • .....so im just sitting here eating birthday cake.

  • @TraveIog LOL

  • @katiemoore96 i have a full figure XD that goal won't come for some time yet for me XDbut i guess that could work, thanks.

  • Shay i have said sorry to you 3 times now about mentioning the water melon sugar thing m8 and i feel so gad damn bad, i dont think il get over this until i get a pm from you to say its cool.

    i said this because i was reading about it at the time and thought id show off a bit but i agree with you. so please just a small pm just to say you except my apology would make me feel so much better :0)

  • @sunhouse76 i wouldn't feel so bad about it, he probably got a million suggestions when he started this channel. he's not saying this to make you feel bad just to show people all have their own ways of doing things.

  • i just have an honest to goodness question ... what if you don't have anything to motivate you? like some people want to lose weight for a loved one or whatever ... what should i get to motivate me if i don't have anyone or anything i want to lose weight for?

  • Shay we've been trying to reach you. Check out All-Pro Science.

  • Shay - remember the basics. Diet and exercise. I am working on my stuff too!!. God bless.

    Rich

  • I've lost 55 pounds over the last four months with simple portion control. I eat whatever I crave--everything from cheeseburgers to chocolate--but in much smaller quantities than I used to. For example, if I go to Burger King I might order a whopper and only eat half of it at one seating (along with a few fries and a diet soda). I've come to the conclusion that if I deprive myself of the foods that I crave the most, then any diet is almost certain to fail.

  • Can anyone help me with tha video response I just got my iPhone and don't know how yet??

  • How do I make a video response via iPhone??

  • Im on dAY TWO of my plan also!!!! : D

  • The Biggest Loser game for the Wii is amazing.

  • omg i loved your analogy!!! people get caught up in the exercise part and counting calories and they don't see the results cause they are worrying about it too much. there was one summer where i just cut out junk food. after a couple of weeks i lost a couple of pounds and began to see my stomach getting flatter. i wasn't counting calories or making sure that i exercised i just ate better.

    anything is possible :)

  • Amen!!!! Omg you are saying exactly what I have been thinking and doing. I joined weight watchers 3 weeks ago and have lost 10lbs. You gave me more inspiration. I am so subscribing to this channel.

  • you're so awesome and inspiring!

  • wow best of luck Shay!!! I'm lucky, I don't need to lose weight but I could definitely do with eating healthier and exercising more. gonna start doing tonnes of yoga on the wii! gonna use these videos to stay motivated :)

  • You are so motivational Shay!

  • Rocking!!!

  • i'm from CA, and we call them cherry pickers haha

  • I love how this is a diet video and the advertisement I get at the beginning is for Pillsbury biscuits :P

  • I'm on board started Monday 7th Feb. after years of overeating and laziness have decided to take plunge as i want to improve my health, motivation and body. I agree with wot you were saying, you just need to be sensible. I have started swimming and will move on to gym once get down a bit more. im enjoying the healthy food but struggle more with portion control. gonna enjoy following your progress

  • i'm doing a biggest loser competition with my family...me and my mom are a team. We have 5 months to see who loses the most percentage of their weight. I am so excited and I hope to lose alot of weight. Good luck on ur weight loss journey!! I'm right there with ya!!

  • watermelon is not high in sugar, just saying lol

  • ha ha was thinking potato pickers cause where you're from then you said it.

    over here when i was in grade school we called that pineapple pickups

  • "Do you have two feet? You can jog!" lol I laughed.

  • When you said that carrots were high in sugar (before you said not to bother about it) I was munching on carrots and literally stopped chewing for a second :D

  • Confucius! :D

  • lovin seeing the painting in your vids so much! lookin goooooooooood!

    good luck with the diets and weight lose im tryin myself, would love to get back on the skateboard this summer! cheers! raeart enjoy the paintings!

  • In SoCal we call 'em Cherry pickers?? Haha

  • don't eat too many fruits. they're high in sugar. yes i went there. oh and if you're doing a vegetarian type of diet, protein powder would be very very beneficial, since that is something you won't be in-taking as much.

  • Hey Shay! I am doing a weight loss competition with a local news station here in Omaha. We have a site just for our competition, let me know if you want me to send it to you (YT won't let me paste it) I am also trying to vlog about it, but so far have really only gotten my weekly vlog for the station on my YouTube page. We can do this, one step at a time. That is what I keep telling myself, one pound at a time!! That is how we put it on, so that is how we will take it off. We can do this!!!

  • what the heck are potato pickers lol!!!

    I'm from warshington state

  • I'm using nutrisystem, total gym and treadmill everyday.

  • the best diet is carb diet. not kidding. the first week you can only eat at most 20 carbs. and when you start working out since your body barely has carbs to burn so it starts burning fat. i lost 10 pounds in the first week.

  • your so inspiring and smart ! and i love you and ill never stop watching :):)

  • awesome i will start first thing tomorrow :) stay strong!!

  • i have an app on my ipod touch and i enter what i eat and it tracks everything for me its easier, im also taking a tap class plus im in gym everyday. ive lost 12 pounds already

  • Check out my channel and my very 1st vlog and follow my 75 day workout adventure!

  • No SHAY every 1000 mile journey starts with the Decision to make the journey!....

    That and the words "I think i'm Pregnant!"

  • Get Kinect Sports if you really want to breathe hard. Plus its fun to race your friends.

  • thanks shay !:P

  • eat less and exercise, is such a good dei- no because you will learn to live like that...

  • i weigh 108 pounds and i love shaytards soo much. should i do the diet too?

  • ehh..everyone's making diet sound so complicated with all numbers..i just try to limit my intake of all the bad stuff (which i know of) haha. just nice and easy no stress

  • hope you went for that jog

  • The only diet thing I'm sticking to is no soda/coffee. And I don't bring a lot of money with me so I'm not attempted to buy any fast food for lunch.

  • Hey shay ... You remind me so much of my dad in so many ways, even one of his favourite films was shawshank redemption! However he passed away 3 years ago and just watching your videos gives me the strength and will power to lose my weight and live a happier life because I know my dad would have wanted that :) what I'm trying to say is thank you!! ^_^ xx

  • IM MOTIVATED!!!!

  • i called them cherry pickers and earth moon sun i know what your thinking it is wierd

  • Sorry to be a bit of a food nazi but honestly the most effective way of losing weight is ironically the simplest and potentially easiest. Heres what you do:

    1: Find out the amount of calories you're "supposed" to eat every day with an online calorie counter (Usually somewhere around 2300 but it depends on height and weight)

    2: Eat 500 calories less than that amount every day. If you eat too much, excersize it off so that you'll always have around a 500 calorie deficit.

    3: Keep it up & get fit

  • You are very motivational and a wise "Diet Guru." Thank you for starting this vlog..I will be following you . I am working towards a healthy and fit body by summer.

  • I think it's awesome that you're so on board with this! I just started watching your channels a few days ago, and i wish i would've started watching u sooner!haha Just wanted to say that anytime you're like "Eh, i don't think jogging would be good after kinect"or something to that effect, try to do it anyway. You'd be suprised of what you're actually capable of and you'll feel great after. You've got alot of muscle so that's really going to work to your advantage with burning fat.Best of luck :)

  • we did potato pickers, but i'm sure we didn't call them that. i just can't remember what we did call them. xD

  • We called them cherry-pickers!

  • Never heard of potato-pickers, sorry. =D

  • Ahhhhh! I really need 2 loose weight, I'm the same as Shay and I'm a 24 yr old woman!! not not not good!! I really can't be bothered though, work and life and no boyfriend equals me stuffing my face with chocolaty goodness!! now wheres that razor blade.............

  • You've got the right idea :) Natural God-Given foods are the best way to go, I'm proud of you

  • Try to drive less, walk more. If its too far to walk than bike :) I did that and lost 20 pounds and gained lots of muscle <3 I wish you luck

  • Shay were you a Soccer Goalie ?

  • potato pickers... lol its so funny how different each state has their own culture thingy.. haha culture thingy. idk wht its called! okayyyy

    shayy im going to the supermarket today and im going to buy so many vegetables and fruits :D

  • shays not fat he is fluffy thumbs up for the big man

  • Possible New Motto: "Baby Steps, Baby!!" (lol)

    OR!!! You could use my (not as socially acceptable) Motto:

    "Operation Fat *SS" (Teeheehee!) Just an idea.... *Giggling*

    Great job, My GuruTard!! (Yea, you can use that. No probs!)

    Seriously, I always use "Baby Steps" as a way to keep me motivated.... More or less. If I only do 10 sit ups - then, rather than bash myself, I say: Well, it was TEN MORE SIT UPS than I did yesterday! So there! GOOD LUCK! Hugglez!

  • take the dairy and bread out you'll lose weight. Eat all the steaks you want. I lost 30 lbs in a month. Weight is easy to lose when you take those things out

  • it's all about exercise. make sure you sweat and push yourself. the harder you push yourself, the more results you will see sooner.

  • I'm gunna loose weight for the girl I like

  • @blackbeltfire Good job! I hope you get her.

  • @blackbeltfire if you will...respect.

  • im so inspired, im gonna start tomorrow.

  • I start this coming Monday, this is all the motivation I need.

  • @KiloLima39 no. start tomorrow.

  • I've been subscribed to you for over 2 years now. I'm not fat myself, i weight 11.6 stone ( i dont know my weight in pounds) and im 6ft 4 so if anything im a bit on the skinny side. But i love you and I'm still gonna watch this. I'm rooting for you shay!

  • I needa lose atleast 30 pounds or more for my grade 8 grad cause i am on the chunky side but i want to change that.

    Im 170lbs

    and im 13...

    :S

    but i guess im pretty tall... 5 foot 4 or 5

  • Comment removed

  • press the nuber 1 and keep pressing it ,, its funny luullz

  • press and repress the number 5

  • Fad diets dont work. People do them for a short time..see results..then quit. A good "diet" is one where you change your lifestyle of eating. Eat what you want..just control how much you eat of it. Portion control is (in my opinion) the best "diet" cuz it allows you to eat anything. I do portion control and calorie counting. Ive lost 12 lbs and I havent even stepped on a treadmill yet! Once you are used to normal portions..the rest is easy!

  • im 15 and i once was sitting in my desk in school and the desk collapsed in and im actually pretty muscular for my age but i have so much fat blocking it i hhope that ill manage to stick to this diet with you. and the REAL problem is that i HATE cardio soooo much! so i wanna join your battle shay.

  • you might enjoy michael pollan's book "an omnivores dilemma". it's a good read. also start walking vlogs. you're already in front of the camera x numbers of minutes per day, so take advantage of it. walk and vlog. it'll be awesome! kick phils a**!

  • Ugh I'm an ordinary 11 year old trying to lose some weight. I suck in P.E, even thought I have like an A in it. I'm trying to do more exercise, but I'll be honest It's hard. I hope that maybe if I try hard and eat right I will lose some weight. I love your vids and I hope they help me and other people :]

  • i watched a oprah someday last week...or maybe this week...idk but the topic was about veganism and this one man lost 11 pounds in one week by going on a vegan diet.

  • the good thing is that one of my fav v-loggers are in the same position i am so he can help me through my journey of weight loss! so a BIG thank you to shay carl!

    and i am now going to have a jog! :)

  • I don't really need to lose weight, but this really encourages me to eat healthy and exercise everyday. I hope I can stay motivated to be healthier for a long time.

  • "Screw you, they're carrots!!" haha

  • if you havent seen the movie, dont hate shay for spoiling the movie for you. :)

  • @FlubberFish i'm in the same situation

  • deff on board with the being healthier stuff. ive just always been above average height and under average weight for my height. so i try to put on muscle cuz i used 2 have a six pack then i lagged off and my stomach is flat, OFF TOPIC!!! anways WOOOO to staying healthy!!!!

  • When I started losing weight I plopped my treadmill right in front of my 360 and played cod4! Also did it so other people wouldn't see my fat jiggle while I was jogging lol!

  • lmao that was hillariouse but i forgot what you said so obviously it wasnt that funny but it was in the moment and it was funny there but not any more lol

  • First of all, I'm not losing weight because I'm extremely skinny and on the verge of being underweight so i need to eat more and just get healthier in general, so i've stopped drinking coke and i only have one every three days or so. I get headaches all the time and i'm so sleepy now too. It's probably because I don't eat enough food so that's my goal and yeah... Healthier and more food.

  • We Call Them CherryPickers.

  • I started back to the gym three weeks ago, and it feels amazing! I've been eating mostly fruit and lean meat, whole grain pasta, yadda yadda! I find the hardest thing for me is trying not to eat late at night! Anybody else have this problem, any suggestions? I'm on board with the Shayloss! yay!

  • @crushedlush if you want to eat late at night, drink a big glass of water! That helps me :)

  • Comment removed

  • I'm starting kinda slow, I stopped drinking pop January 31st. Headaches are starting to go away and I feel SO MUCH BETTER. Now I'm trying to find a way to exercise and enjoy it. I know that I love going hiking and being in nature, so I'm looking up local hiking trails. I've found some and I can't wait to get out there! I hate gyms, I get burned out way to fast and stop going. So I'm going to go slow and steady. I'm ready to do this and I'm glad I have your videos to help! Thank you!

  • YAY TEAM Shay!! ;D

  • You don't always have to think of it as a diet.....usually people end diets. Just think about it as eaing healthier or a way of life. Then it's not a diet...it's just a life change. For the better. Be healthy!

  • when i was in school we called them cherry pickers.

  • We called it pickin the grass...Texas

  • Im not fat Im just boxy!

    Love you Shay!

  • Im not fat Im just boxy!

  • and fruits and veggies are natural sugars, while that other stuff is processed sugar, which is awful for you. natural sugars are good

  • Keep your eye on the prize!!

  • I love how the dominos advert was on before this video.... Your an inspiration btw!:D

  • the picture behind you just fits perfectly to the topics in your videos!

  • -cry- wahh im going to miss the ol bearded fat shay...... -SOB-

  • Oh god....not this again...lol I give him 1 month...damn fatass never follows through...anyone remember the raw diet?!

  • @counter546 That was only a 1 month thing anyway you arse, and he did it.

  • @counter546 hey u fuckin asshole! How's your weekend going? Mines fine, just got done doing your wife and mom at the same time! At least he's trying to lose weight! GOD, PEOPLE PISS ME OFF! If u have a problem, you can go jump in a lake. Filled with acid. And pirhannas. Bitch.

  • @NateSmith223 Oh shut the fuck up you internet gangsta....

  • love your videos shay very motivating :)

  • Comment removed

  • Wii fit is awesome too for working out! good luck shay. Although let me tell you the way you haul those kids around throwing them...and even piggy backing katilette, you must have a pretty large muscle mass... :D just cause you have a jubbly wubbly belly on top of the doesnt mean you r thun heathy!!!! lol

  • I started mine on Feb1st! and It's so on!!!!!!! can't wait!!! will vid response when I get my phone :)

  • Hey uv lost weight already... honest u look trimmer :)

  • 46 people think carrots have too much sugar in.

  • Love your advice, Shay, because it can apply to anything, not just dieting. My goal is not weight loss, but is eliminating the amount of time I spend on YouTube. :) I'll still be watching your videos tho, Shay...to keep me disciplined and motivated!

  • Thank you Shay! You have motivated me!!

  • Watch the documentary called Food Inc. (Neftlix instant play) and you'll never want to eat crappy food again. It makes those foods not even tempting. At least for me. Lost four pounds in five days!

  • I have been working out for the past 2 years but recently I have joined Golds gym and I have been going every day for 2 or more hours a day I can't get enough of it. I'm so motivated and it's awesome. I am trying to motivate my friends as well to join in my new found love. I will NEVER diet therefore I will work harder because of that but it's ok by me. I feel strong, I am not winded anymore, I am building muscle and eliminating fat. Good Luck Shay If I can lose 70 lbs you can too :)
