 Alright guys what is going on welcome to another video welcome to another episode of making games and today's video is going to be about you know pretty controversial topic it's a topic I've talked about twice in the past probably once you know a year ago once probably a year before that when you're bulking you know majority of the series I've been bulking so binge eating has been something I don't I haven't had to worry about you know if I eat 6,000 calories as opposed to 4,000 that I was meant to you know basically I just put it to the back of my mind and say it's extra games well when you change your mindset up and you are deciding to diet you know it's an important goal in your head that you're thinking about quite a lot dieting down getting in shape and it's really important to you if you go and binge eat you know that next morning you're probably not gonna be feeling the best. A couple of years ago when I made my first video about binge eating I probably wasn't confident enough to start talking about feelings and about your mental health and things like that I didn't think that I had subscriber base and I didn't think I had the knowledge and the wisdom to start talking about that so in that first video I talked about you know what you can do physically as far as you know looking at the numbers looking at macros and calories so if we're talking about numbers at the moment I'm trying to hit between 2,500 and 3,000 calories per day yesterday I probably went over you know double so I got up to around about five five and a half thousand or 6,000 calories now I knew obviously whilst I was eating all that food that you know something's gonna happen I'm gonna have to stop eventually and I did end up going to bed at like two in the morning after eating about 6,000 calories now luckily I did track it so I know exactly what I had I know the damage that was done now speaking about numbers and damage control that way I can wake up this morning knowing that yes okay I've been over about 3,000 calories you know if anything I will be retaining a little bit more water my body weight will have gone up so one thing I'm not gonna do is jump on the scales if I did that you know what is that doing for me I know the damage I've done I know how my body works I know how water retention works etc I'm gonna have a higher weight on the scale why would I go and you know prove that to myself there's no point physically I don't feel too bad you know even after a big day of eating if you're not doing that day in day out the next morning you know your stomach should be relatively back to normal and it is all I know is that you know I'm feeling quite dehydrated and that's because all the water in my system is now being retained because of the extra carbs and salt and stuff but as far as numbers go okay so I wake up this morning I'm about to get a crossfit I'm gonna go fasted so first thing before I do anything I'm gonna be you know I'm gonna burn at least five maybe 800 calories and I'm gonna be in a deficit straight away I'll come home after that and I'll assess how I feel I've even 6000 calories yesterday there's no way I'm gonna need a huge amount of food even post workout even after you know training this morning at CrossFit so I probably won't eat I might not eat till three four in the afternoon it's it's lunchtime now I got up late I went to bed late so as far as you know the one thing you don't want to do is start smashing the calories again first thing in the morning and I don't think there's anyone out there that after doing a decent binge would actually do that that's stupid that's not what you want to do by the end of today let's say I burn let's say I burn an extra thousand calories over and above my maintenance today that is a deficit of thousand if I eat 2000 calories today as opposed to 3000 that's another deficit of a thousand and right there we've got a deficit of 2000 calories so you know I went over my calories yesterday by 3000 at the end of today you know I will have brought that that deficit back down to only a thousand over and you know if I go and do another weight training session tonight that might be 500 over and you know if I do a little bit extra walking around the house today that might be it might be back to normal so you know best-case scenario I'll be back to normal by the end of today I will have eaten today normally you know two thousand calories that's a decent amount of food I don't have to starve myself that's one thing you don't want to do is fucking starve yourself all right because not only you know not only you're gonna feel like shit but come tonight when you've starved yourself the entire day you're probably gonna start thinking things like oh yeah well you know I'll just eat a thousand calories tonight I'll just eat 1500 calories tonight and it won't stop there you won't stop there guys you've starved yourself the whole day you most probably gonna overeat so as far as the macros as far as the numbers go that is how I would structure my day after binging and that's how I'm gonna structure today I'm about to go down to CrossFit like I said fasted I'm gonna start burning calories I'm gonna start eating into that fucking calorie deficit that I need to get to and that's all you can do you know I'm not gonna eat shit food today I'm gonna I'm gonna relatively go I'm gonna go relatively low carb so any of that water weight starts flushing out I probably start going to the toilet quite a lot you know it's just it's what happens and yeah that's that's how it's structured now in the second video that I made probably about a year ago I started talking about mindset and I started talking about mental health and I started saying things like look you go to the gym right you're strong okay you use that strength that mental strength and the physical strength to go to the gym even when you don't want to you know you're addicted to it you love it so you go it's not hard now what I want to try and suggest is that you harness that physical and mental strength and transfer it over into your diet okay the gym the training in the diet go hand-in-hand if you if you're strong enough to go to that gym every day and push and push and push and go hard and put yourself through the pain man transfer that to a diet and you're gonna absolutely kill it now not only that but okay waking up this morning I have to do that I have to transfer that mental energy that I usually put in the gym you know to to push myself when I don't want to I have to wake up this morning knowing that I fucked up yesterday I binged I went over by a few thousand calories the only person that's gonna fucking fix it is me there's no point crying over spilt milk and I've got a harness that that strength that I know I have and you know use it today throughout the day to make sure I don't binge again I do my cardio I do my training I stick to my diet and then going to bed tonight I will feel a whole lot better and I tell you what tomorrow morning I'll wake up and I'll be straight back to normal my weight will be down you know any bloat that's there will be gone even though it's not there and mentally I'll be ready to start cracking into the diet once again so overall things are going good I am about to head down to CrossFit like I said it's a 12 15 class I've never been to a lunchtime class before but I've got the day off today and like it said you know waking up this morning I I was kicking myself so I need to go and smash the session get it out of the way and I'll be back here and having my my first meal later in the day which will be protein and fat based minimal carbs just so personally I'll feel a little bit lighter and definitely you know by the end of today I don't want to be thinking about this after today honestly and that's how you guys should feel you're gonna binge okay get over and done with don't cry over spilt milk do what you can on that next day to bring yourself back down to where you were and you know the day after forget about it and continue continue on your journey so that's all I've got to say today guys I did finish last night 6,000 calories in a day you know I ate 10,000 calories in a day and not long ago so I guess I've just got to get over it the same the same way I got over that and that's it guys that's just me trying to help you guys you know if you're struggling with binging you know it's I would do it once once every so often I don't know how people would feel doing it you know daily or two or three four times a week I think that would really really start you know fucking you up mentally and so don't do that guys and if you are in that trap I'm probably not gonna be able to give you the advice you need because it is a trap it's a vicious circle binge eating I've you know heard a few stories from a few friends and things like that people you don't realize would be struggling with it do struggle with it it's a fucking it's a disorder it's a mental health issue so good luck that's it I don't want to be a damper I don't want to dampen down the mood here guys I'm feeling good I'm feeling good I'm feeling I am making progress you know one day one day fucking it doesn't mean shit I'm making good progress I'm about to go kill a CrossFit session and that makes me happy so until next time train hard eat well I will too I'll see you guys way to the top now I ain't never gonna stop too driven I ain't never getting boss got vision I'm gonna make this shit hot ignition yeah don't give me facts not fiction then you know I'm fucking missing cuz I'm on a fucking mission then you got to be driven cuz it's well it's over
