The following is a collection of YouTube video links that may be of interest to anyone wishing to explore the topic of human weight further. I discovered these when I first endeavoured to research weight loss back in 2014, before I realised what nows seems patently obvious. I found myself gradually clawing my way out from under the enormous weight of commercial grift and profit.

I now know there is only one way to lose weight. I now know there has only ever been one way to lose weight and I now know there only ever will be one way to lose weight. Your kcal intake must be correct for you and your body at any particular place in time. Dead simple.

Exercise is always to be advised but exercise will never per se deliver weight loss to ordinary mortals. Assume that makes a nil contribution. Ask your favourite search engine how many kcal male and female professional footballers consume. Certainly a lot less than I would have expected and they know what real work is, day in and day out. When I exercise I am always enjoying it. The great outdoors best and it is cheap. No annual membership.

My interest was first kindled by the extraordinary HBO four part series The Weight of the Nation, which applies as much in 2023 as it did when it was first produced a decade ago. I have downloaded all the videos but using links here saves me space on the server, as some videos are large. All videos will open in a new window. Note that some YouTube links may include advertising but I do not benefit and I do not have a channel on YouTube (or any other social media).
