0:20

0:24
subscribing turn on your notification
0:26
bell so that you don't miss out on the
0:27
videos that i post
0:29
so about three days ago i did post a
0:31
blog about nine and popular opinions
0:33
about food on my website you can follow
0:36
my website i'm going to leave a link on
0:38
the description box
0:39
now there is no
0:41
problem at all
0:43
to express your opinions about something
0:46
and having unpopular opinions about food
0:49
is not in any way wrong and the reason
0:51
why most of us fail to express these
0:53
unpopular opinions about food is because
0:56
of possible reaction from other people
0:58
and these reactions could be rude and
1:00
very hostile
1:02
so
1:03
here are some of the nine and popular
1:05
opinions about food
1:06
that i totally agree with at the same
1:08
time you can tell me what you think in
1:10
the comment section
1:11
below so the very first uh opinion is
1:14
the bigger the plate the more the food
1:16
you're going to serve
1:17
okay and there is a 95 possibility that
1:21
is this is totally true because when
1:23
you're holding a big plate versus the
1:25
small plate when you serve the same
1:27
amount of food on both those plates the
1:29
bigger plate is going to give you an
1:31
illusion of more space there is still
1:33
more space for food you know and you
1:35
keep serving until the plate is full and
1:38
at the end of the day you find out that
1:39
you've served more than what you need
1:42
but when you sell the same food on a
1:43
smaller plate then there's no more space
1:46
for more food so
1:48
the bigger the plate the more the food
1:49
you're going to eat and even when you
1:51
look back at home when we're shopping
1:54
for place most of us not all
1:57
go for bigger place because most of us
2:00
think the bigger the better and so when
2:02
your house is full of big plates then
2:04
you're always going to be eating more
2:06
food than what you need so if at all you
2:09
are on a weight loss journey then i
2:11
think one of the changes you need to
2:13
make apart from the diet itself is
2:15
choosing smaller plates of a bigger
2:18
place i remember i mentioned this on the
2:19
hacks nutrition hacks you have to know
2:21
i'm going to put a link so that you can
2:23
watch that video as well so on to the
2:25
next opinion we always eat the volume
2:28
that we want
2:30
okay i know the calories that you need
2:33
you know the want and the need
2:35
okay
2:36
the volume that we want you know we
2:38
desire we look at the food that you just
2:40
want to serve so much that is something
2:43
you want but the calories that you need
2:45
you forget about them so in most cases
2:48
in celebrations food is a good aspect of
2:51
celebrations and when there is a buffet
2:54
or a buffet i don't know how you call it
2:56
you get excited and
2:58
when you are having that big bread with
3:01
you you end up serving too much because
3:03
of course if you're having a small bread
3:04
would you serve too much no so we always
3:07
tend to serve more
3:10
uh based on the volume and we forget to
3:12
think about the calories that we need of
3:14
course their body does not require too
3:16
much okay i've always said this again
3:19
and again and when you eat too much than
3:21
what your body requires your body will
3:24
convert the excess into fat and that is
3:27
what leads to weight gain so i think
3:29
it's just a good behavior to keep in
3:31
mind that your body does not require
3:33
that much and therefore whenever you see
3:35
a lot of food in celebrations or
3:37
whatever it is or at your home it's good
3:39
to go for a smaller plate and also watch
3:42
on the volume that you eat
3:44
okay as you consider the calories that
3:46
you need okay and i'm not saying that
3:48
you should start counting on the
3:49
calories
3:50
definitely when you serve too much foods
3:53
or the carbs the proteins the vitamins
3:56
are all in there of course eventually
3:58
you're going to eat more calories than
3:59
what you intended to eat but uh most
4:02
commonly when you're having a small
4:03
plate you are not having any more space
4:06
to serve too much food and therefore
4:08
even if you don't you don't really have
4:10
to calculate the calories
4:12
you might be around or close to what is
4:15
recommended
4:16
so the third and popular opinion about
4:18
food is the longer you stay at the table
4:22
the more you're going to eat
4:25
i don't know that this looks like
4:27
straightforward you know you know among
4:30
the table etiquette you know those table
4:32
manners there is also like aids with the
4:35
pace of other people you don't need to
4:37
be too fast you don't need to be too
4:39
slow because when you're too fast you
4:42
will keep eating because the rest are
4:43
still eating so you want to keep eating
4:46
so that you can leave the table at the
4:47
same time when your food your your plate
4:50
is empty you have a tendency and your
4:52
plate is empty and other people are
4:54
still eating you will serve more
4:56
so the longer you stay at the table the
4:58
more you're going to eat also thinking
5:00
like this when the table has so much
5:02
food variety you have the cells you have
5:05
appetizers the juices the protein
5:07
everything is there
5:09
and you stay longer at that table
5:11
they'll keep calling you for more
5:14
helping can i have a second helping yeah
5:16
because they still put food at the table
5:18
so the other opinion is out of sight out
5:21
of mind okay anything that is out of
5:24
your sight is out of your mind so i'm
5:26
thinking about um
5:28
the people who love to work while eating
5:30
the desktop diners you know if you
5:33
remember from the period previous
5:34
presentation i did mention about the
5:36
desktop diners desktop diners carry food
5:39
at work they eat one water
5:42
so when you're having this variety of
5:44
snacks you have chocolate you have
5:45
crisps biscuits and all sorts of snacks
5:47
surrounding you
5:49
you know they are
5:50
it's it's not going to get out of your
5:52
mind you're always be you'll always be
5:54
thinking about them can i have some
5:55
chocolate can i have some biscuits
5:56
because they're at
5:58
you can see them you know at your
6:00
disposal but when you keep these
6:03
unhealthy starts you know out of sight
6:06
then you're going to be able to control
6:08
your mind from thinking too much about
6:10
those nuts and eventually you're going
6:12
to be able to prevent yourself from over
6:14
snacking
6:16
i'm a snack grazing you know
6:18
outside out of mind also when you are
6:20
doing your your arranging your cup your
6:22
food cabinet or your fridge you want to
6:24
put this most of these and healthy
6:26
snacks around healthy foods just
6:29
out of sight a little bit and put more
6:31
healthy snacks
6:33
in front so that when you're opening
6:35
your fridge like this you don't see
6:37
those unhealthy snacks staring at you
6:39
and therefore you're able to prevent
6:40
yourself from
6:42
snack grazing okay
6:44
so the other opinion about food is
6:47
anything that keeps your focus off food
6:51
is going to make you overheat
6:54
and um
6:56
uh how many times have you just been
6:58
chatting with your friends or calling
7:00
your friend and what are you doing and
7:01
they are responding like ah i'm just
7:03
watching tv
7:04
and have you had dinner already and then
7:06
they're like i'm having dinner while
7:08
watching tv so this person is actually
7:10
chatting or on phone call or watching tv
7:12
and eating at the same time so the focus
7:15
is the focus really on food no this
7:17
person is doing so many things at the
7:19
same time so
7:21
it doesn't really matter how much this
7:22
person is going to eat so anything that
7:25
keeps your focus off food is going to
7:26
make you over it because supposing
7:28
you're having a very large package
7:31
of cribs supporting crepes or biscuits
7:34
and then you're just watching tv and
7:35
laughs and laughing at how the program
7:37
is
7:38
you're going to eat too much
7:40
that one i promise you so that is also
7:42
another popular opinion and popular
7:44
opinion about food that i totally agree
7:46
with so
7:47
the thing is don't eat from large
7:49
packages
7:50
that is also one thing that is very
7:52
important
7:53
because you know when you're having that
7:54
light package you don't know when to
7:56
stop just when you stop when it's over
7:58
you know in most cases so
8:00
turn off the tv turn off your computer
8:03
have a good time with your phone eat
8:05
look at how much any look as you eat you
8:08
know look at the plate as you eat this
8:10
will be very important for you um
8:12
especially if you're on a weightless
8:13
dummy you're going to be able to control
8:15
just how much you can you you're
8:17
supposed to eat
8:18
okay
8:19
uh the other unpopular opinion about
8:21
food is
8:23
cutting off your favorite food
8:25
especially when your own diet
8:27
is doable
8:29
of course not
8:31
saying something like i'm never going to
8:32
eat fried chicken again
8:34
yes you will
8:36
yes you will because
8:38
i'm not saying i've encountered a lot of
8:40
people norwegians journey but this is
8:42
something that i've i've experienced
8:45
myself like if you're trying to lose
8:47
some weight and then you're cutting off
8:49
this fried chicken like completely
8:52
the more you are cutting off this food
8:55
the more you're depriving yourself of
8:57
this food the more you're going to crave
8:59
for that particular food and the more
9:01
you crave for that food
9:04
what will happen when you get a hold of
9:06
that food you're going to eat too much
9:08
of it and then you go back to square one
9:10
and then you start your weight loss
9:11
danny all over again it is quite
9:14
exhausting
9:15
so what i recommend that you should do
9:17
is
9:18
to watch on how much of that favorite
9:20
food you're actually eating and how
9:21
often you're eating that favorite food
9:23
you can say i'll only eat fried chicken
9:26
once in a week or once twice uh twice a
9:29
month or so on so forth because cutting
9:32
it off completely might not be doable at
9:35
all okay another common and popular
9:38
opinion is it's expensive it's good
9:42
really
9:43
and so when your order of kc goes
9:46
through and it's delivered at your
9:47
doorstep
9:49
then you're eating and then you take to
9:50
the social media take a very nice
9:54
pictures of well-displayed food and
9:56
everybody on social media is like this
9:59
girl is living the best life
10:01
no
10:02
the fact that they price tag to that
10:04
food item was way way up does not
10:06
actually mean that the food was good
10:09
that one i can assure you and even you
10:11
know it yourself so unless you don't
10:13
really care about your health then you
10:15
should look at how natural how healthy
10:19
that food is against how expensive it is
10:22
it's not a guarantee i know there are
10:24
some foods that are very expensive and
10:26
very healthy at the same time
10:28
and also they're also fast foods that
10:30
are very cheap and very unhealthy at the
10:32
same time but the fact that that price
10:34
tag of that food was way up does not
10:36
necessarily mean that the food
10:39
is good okay i don't know if i use the
10:42
best example here but
10:46
embrace a healthy lifestyle you know
10:49
you're still young or you're old you're
10:51
having these diseases that really
10:53
disturbing you and you're still grabbing
10:56
these fast foods with expensive weather
10:58
cheap and you're eating them without
11:00
control whether you like it or not
11:02
they're going to affect you in the long
11:03
run so a change in the lifestyle is an
11:06
important aspect you know so last but
11:09
not least
11:10
we tend to over eat
11:13
these foods that we assume are healthy
11:16
and in this case i'm talking about the
11:18
nutrition information information
11:20
section on most packages of the food
11:22
they go like this is food is fat free
11:24
this food is sugar free you know carb
11:27
free and when you see that on that
11:29
package we tend to eat too much of that
11:32
food
11:33
and you know
11:35
even if you're eating this food that is
11:36
fat free you know there are these
11:38
adverts that are
11:40
um are not so true not so honest and
11:44
when they say fat-free they not
11:46
necessarily mean this food is completely
11:48
fat free and when you end up over eating
11:50
on this food in the name that in the
11:52
name of this food is fat free eventually
11:55
the results you're looking for are not
11:57
you're not going to get them okay so
11:59
most people tend to overeat on these
12:01
foods that you think are healthy but do
12:03
you really need to overeat these foods
12:06
no you don't because the effects could
12:09
be more than what you expected
12:12
so i don't know if these unpopular
12:14
opinions are weird or do you agree with
12:17
them i don't know these are some of the
12:20
unpopular opinions about food i don't
12:22
know if they counted to nine i just
12:24
mentioned them randomly but on my
12:26
website they're well um
12:29
i've put them so well you can go ahead
12:31
and read them on my website comment down
12:33
below tell me what you think what are
12:35

12:37
