  • There sure are a LOT of weight management tips across the internet, and after my research it appears finding the facts from trustworthy sources is harder than it seems. Heck, I’m a doctor and had trouble verifying a lot of this stuff, so how is someone without a medical degree supposed to find accurate and safe info? Today I’m taking a look at some popular weight loss tips around the internet to tell you what’s real and and what’s not.

    The mirror trick is horrible. That's like insulting yourself every time you eat.

    The mirror trick is brutal; sounds more like psychological warfare than diet advice.

    “there are people starving in America”, Africa appreciates that statement, we love how your people have raised awareness for poverty in African in the past but I feel like Americans need to take care of Americans more now. Appreciate the video Doc👍🏾

    I appreciate Dr Mike’s holistic approach. Talking about mental health, sleep and cardiovascular health in addition to weight loss. It shows a doctor committed to the overall health of his patients.

    I've had an eating disorder for quite some years and I'm so afraid a good amount of those tips remind me of the "pro-anorexia tips". It's really scary how these so called healthy tips can make anyone spiral into an ed or disordered eating really fast. Take care guys and be careful <3

    I love how he said "if you do it so you hate yourself while eating" he was clearly disgusted with the whole idea! He can say he's body positive or whatever, but this proves that he's a doctor that doesn't hate fat people!

    Dentist here, Snacking often can reduce your mouth's pH which can lead to tooth decay. If you really need to snack switch to healthy snacks like celery, carrots etc.

    My husband lost over 120 lbs by cutting his carbs and increasing his meat & vegetables. We went on the same diet, he lost 60lbs and I put on 12lbs. Moral of the story; what works for one may not work for all.

    As someone who works for a non-profit that helps rescue food and delivery it to people in need, the comment about intentionally spoiling and ruining food truly brought tears to my eyes. I can't believe anyone would do that knowing how Manu people are struggling to feel their families and children.

    No idea if anyone will see this but here is how I lost quite a lot of weight: I planned my meals. At the beginning of the week I planned out exactly what I was going to eat every single day. And I only bought the ingredients for these meals (healthy meals of course). Nothing else. Trust me: Its WAY easier to not buy chips rather that to not eat them when they are already at home. I also only had two meals and a snack a day. Breakfast at

    There can be a really thin line between healthy eating and having an unhealthy and disordered obsession with eating "healthy". This video is a GREAT reference for addressing some of those thoughts! Thank you!
