(Early Access) Matt's Fast Food Weight Loss Documentary
Added 2024-06-27 15:56:21 +0000 UTCMatt has been working on this documentary for months, if not well over a year now, answering the questions "can you lose weight eating nothing but fast food." Matt takes a few months to gain a ton of weight (as many commenters pointed out a few months back), and then attempted to lose it all eating fast food exclusively.
It's extremely thorough, taking blood tests, documenting the cost, calories, and everything else per meal, and he doesn't attempt to eat only salads at McDonalds. He eats the real stuff.
I helped a little bit filming a few things and giving a few notes, but mostly helped in an advisory capacity. This video is Matt's blood (literally), sweat, and tears. He also recruited one of our own Patrons, longmatey80, to handle the bulk of the edits.
It's still not completely finalized, and Matt has a tentative ending now that's not in the video, but it's more or less complete. We'd love some of your feedback if you guys can find the time to give it a watch.

You are a true trooper Matt. To do all that for thirty days and then decide to do it for an additional thirty days. The willpower on you and Jenna to do all that is amazing. Mad respect

It's giving me vibes of Super Size Me with Morgan Spurlock that I immensely enjoyed growing up, which if you or Matt haven't heard he recently passed away at the age of 53 from cancer complications. I pray for positive circumstances with your health in the future from this challenge! 😮💨😅

2024-06-28 18:26:43 +0000 UTCThis was great! Thanks for taking the hit to gather the data! There's so much information so densely packed in here. It was a bit overwhelming. I want to go back and watch it again. First time through I was interested in the story. Now I'm interested in the data. Matt has a great personality for presenting and hosting. It made the video very enjoyable to watch. Very good humored. I laughed out loud multiple times. Especially loved seeing the interactions between Matt and Jenna. She was a good sport through all of this, but you could definitely tell she was over it. Massive kudos to her for being patient with the experiment. Loved the editing as well. A bit frenetic, but the end result was very engaging and entertaining. What an amazing experience! Such a big accomplishment to go through what you went through just so you could better relate to people.

2024-06-28 03:13:16 +0000 UTCThank you so much. Yes that was the exact reason I intentionally showed themeals. I’ve gone a step farther and actually done a side project that dives deeper into the 60 days. I really appreciate the feedback as it helps me figure out what is working and what needs changes for this video!

2024-06-27 22:00:12 +0000 UTCMy dude really just made a feature length documentary, that's crazy. Fantastic idea, even better execution - I've seen a lot of Matt's stuff, and this is probably the best thing he's ever produced. Informative, while at the same time super entertaining. I also did not expect those results at all - I realize losing weight is just math, intake/output/etc., but I did not at all expect his bloodwork to look like that. The editing felt a little chaotic at times, but I think it definitely helped with the pacing. The only part where I'd have it slow down a bit is showing the results/before and after videos, feel like I couldn't really get a good look and had to pause/rewind to properly see. But that's very minor. Impressive stuff, Matt! A fantastic accomplishment, I hope this is going to do big numbers for you when you release it!

2024-06-27 20:18:44 +0000 UTCSuper impressive video Matt was soo uptempo and the energy was never lacking. What an accomplishment as well to fully commit to the video and even double the time! Also really liked that you showed every meal for every single day to prove you weren’t just hiding it behind the camera. Well done 👏
