Mythbusters week, yay! Thank you SO MUCH to jenGutierrez for the idea for this week - we bumped the theme up because it was so awesome.

I speak to the myths:
- You have to eat 800-1000 cals/day
- You should not snack at all
- You can't eat big meals on a diet
- You should cut out all carbs, period

Let me know if you have questions :)

P.S. Who wants to count how many times I say "actually" in this video? *headdesk*

  • You're so pretty it's hard to concentrate on what you're saying. But thank you.. informative!

  • i love the title lol!!

  • so confusing:( ughh stupid calories

  • Whole grain turns to sugar in the body just as table sugar does, there are even a lot of whole grain bread that spikes your blood sugar faster than table sugar does, so whole grains are bad, one should get ones carbs from green vegetables and certain fruits or berries instead.

  • I've watched like all your losing weight the hard way videos and I think you are awesome! You have given me so much knowledge and motivation for weight loss. Thank you so much.

  • oh and is it okay if i go for a 1 hour run with an empty stomach?

  • you're really gorgoues

  • I cut out carbs and eat a very low fat diet, i trained hard! running several miles a day! I got down from 15st 8lbs to 13stone in less than 3 months! now im 16st 8lbs!!!! its ok loosing it but trying to keep it off was difficult and its all because i THOUGHT by eating less and cutting out calories would work, but all the time im forgetting i need to stick to a healthy eating option! that way, id still be at 13stone or even lighter!

  • I don't separate out my calories based on kind of food, only on carbs, protein, fats, etc.. I recommend tracking your food at a place like calorie-count(.)com or sparkpeople(.)com (just create an account) for a week and seeing where your percentages for the week fall in carbs, protein, and fats. Then you'll have a good idea of where to change your diet to eat more balanced.
