I Made Him Eat Like Me for 30 Days (INSANE Results)

Recently, I shred down to 11% body fat with a fat loss meal plan I thought was pretty easy to follow. But then Kevin, our head engineer here, comes up to me and asks If I ate exactly what you ate, could I get the same results Which got me thinking. Can the same fat loss diet really work for two people with totally different body types and lifestyles To find out, for the next 30 days, Kevin’s going to follow the exact meals for weight loss I did, and we’ll see just how much fat loss he achieves and how you can use these fat loss meals as a cheat code for burning fat. Download the full fat loss meal plan here: Click below for a completely done-for-you workout and diet program that takes care of all the guesswork for you (use code KEVIN for 15% off): Click below to subscribe for more videos: So, here are the fat loss meals Kevin ate: yogurt and oats for breakfast, chicken wraps with veggies for lunch, chicken salad with an apple for an afternoon snack, peanut butter pad thai for dinner, and my Greek Yogurt parfait for dessert. Time to get his measurements. Kevin’s starting weight is 229lbs. Based on his current activity levels, this fat loss diet should put him in a deficit of 600 calories daily. Hopefully, resulting in 4-6 lbs of weight loss in 30 days. But we’ll also be tracking Kevin's waist circumference, as research has found once you reduce your waistline by at least 5cm, you unlock several health and cardiovascular benefits. On the first week of following the meals for weight loss, Kevin struggled with energy levels. And part of that was my fault. Because he wasn’t a fan of the first overnight oats I made him, he was consistently choosing to skip breakfast. This means that not only was Kevin in a higher calorie deficit than we had intended, but he was also missing out on a big chunk of his daily carbs to fuel his workout and the rest of the day. While Kevin won’t notice this right away, after about a week, the carb stores in his muscles and liver will start getting depleted. This eventually leads to what’s known in dieting as hitting the wall. But despite warning Kevin about it, he was still reluctant to eat breakfast. While his weight was coming off quickly, I was getting concerned. Not only is there pretty strong evidence suggesting that those who skip breakfast are more likely to re-gain fat after a diet is over, another major predictor that somebody will re-gain their weight is how much muscle they end up losing during their diet. And if Kevin continues losing weight at this rate, he’s likely to start experiencing muscle loss and eventually start to crash. And on day 10 of his fat loss meal plan, Kevin finally hit the wall. So, I decided to put my chef hat back on and test out some more overnight oats recipes. And by utilizing members of our Built With Science team to make sure Kevin was remembering to eat each morning, Kevin was quickly having his energy bounce back while continuing to lose weight on his fat loss diet. At his 2-week check-in, we found out Kevin lost over 7 lbs in just 2 weeks. While Kevin’s weight loss was on the right track, I realized there were some serious problems with how Kevin got such fast results. He’s avoided going out. That's an area where we definitely want to improve because, again, I want Kevin to do what's sustainable for him in the long run. So I gave Kevin a few of the secrets I used to enjoy going out without seeing all my progress disappear. One of it is preloading his stomach with protein and veggies before going out. Now, there’s something else we’ve been neglecting that will be key to Kevin’s long-term success. His activity levels. I got him to just be more active and take more steps per day to prevent post- fat loss diet weight regain. But there’s 1 more piece of the puzzle to ensure he doesn’t regain the weight he loses. See, I couldn’t possibly expect Kevin to stick to the same meals forever, even after the 30 days were up. This is why strict meal plans only work in the short term until you can’t stand what you’re eating anymore. Research suggests you get the best success when your fat loss diet is tailored to your individual preferences. And luckily, with Kevin’s skills in the kitchen, he was already one step ahead of me. Time for the final weigh-in. Kevin came in at 216. 4 lbs so he's down 12 lbs in 30 days. While I usually wouldn’t recommend losing weight so quickly, once Kevin upped his daily calories to our 2100 calorie target, his rate of weight loss slowed down to a consistent 2lbs per week. And the visual results are pretty striking. He’s literally starting to look like a different human. But what’s even more impressive is Kevin actually lost an entire 5cm across his waistline in just 30 days, which is a great indicator that the weight he did lose was mostly fat rather than muscle.

I feel like overnight oats with a Greek yogurt are a mistake in the first place. Just the oats with milk and a banana should work for a person who is into eating whatever. It’s sweet, but there is no added sugar. Muesli without sugar are also low calorie, while providing all the energy needed.
I used to crave for a burger sometimes. I ate a spoon of muesli every time I was hungry. As a result, I was becoming satiated and too lazy to venture out for a burger. A muesli died got me -5 kg a month every April before summer. Unfortunately, once I was off this extremely low calorie diet, I would it 5 croissants a day and 3 kg would return in a week. Don’t do it. The key is to change a lifestyle, eat maintenance calories and not to drop below 1000-1350 kcal. The key is to understand that you should eat 1-2 croissants per day max, and not base all your meals around fast food. Eat meat, eggs, fish, salads, rice, muesli. There is an infinite amount of what you can make out of simple frozen fish and vegetables.

Kevin was reallly inspiring! Fitness influencers aren't always the best home cooks & I knew right away Kevin's palate wasn't finna like them overnight oats. As a home cook who likes nutrition, here are some secrets I've learned:
1. Whey is for shakes, Casein is for food (e. g, oats. It mixes way smoother & doesn't curd w/ heat
2. Monk fruit sweetener instead of stevia if you don't like that aftertaste
3. Look into other food cultures before using bland low-calorie substitutes (do better than cauliflower rice)
4. Deli containers are dirt cheap, come in many sizes, & do everything a mason jar can (e. g, use mine for pickling & overnight oats)

I have done this exact same thing, it's about bmr increasing, and it increases your burned calories
Eating one meal a day puts your bpowelike using power saving mode on phone or laptop. All your background. exe are closed which woild have comsumed alot more calories than actively exercising.
Eating more split in 3 meals keeps all your background processes on all the time. Plus your body doesn't go into starvation mode.

GO KEVIN! A year ago I was at 36% bodyfat and now I'm around 17% It's a lot of long hard work, but it's totally worth it.
For me, I got into health & fitness after I saw how small changes positively benefited my finances. It's insane how so many of those skills crossover. All my best to you on your journey. YOU LOOK FIERCE MY DUDE!

The healthy part is not just the calories, as I eat more calories than before, but I have removed the starches, breads and sugars from my diet and have lost 30 lbs of fat but gained 5 lbs of muscle at the same time.

This is an awesome video! Remembering to eat consistently but not get tired of what you’re eating and enjoy weekends is a battle for so many, myself included and Kevin is a great representation of that. Go Kevin!

3: 14 when glycogen stores in muscles and liver are depleted, this is known in dieting as hitting the wall, where energy levels drop and you might feel bad. so i guess it's important to ensure a good carb intake.

I’m confused about why Kevin didn’t just cook his own oatmeal in the morning, which would probably taste better than overnight oatmeal. Is there some benefit to the cold oatmeal

This is v practical. I have been inspired by Jeremy since 2019 and follow his workout and diets and others too. But love his practical no nonsense approach.

Good shit Kevin. The hardest part is the beginning. It gets easier from there as you find more freedom in food choices that still meet your dietary goals.

Can you make a vegetarian meal plan with good protein. it's very difficult to find cheap protein sources which also are not high in calories.

I predict Kevin will be an absolute beast in 12 months. I expect once his diet is dialled in then his training performance will go up too.

Go Kevin! Ahi tuna is awesome, I was also surprised a while back checking nutrition info at how high protein and low calorie it is.
