So, I'm 100 lbs down, with 120 lbs to go. So far the thing that has surprised me the most, is the fact the music in my car sounds better. Why? Because my thighs no longer rubs up against the speaker in the door next to me. Still getting used to that. And also more leg space in my car in general. I just fit it better.
Congratulations ❤
My shoes fit again! I love it, and I was really surprised, as I hadn’t known it was a thing!
I got the „your face looks too thin“ comment on Saturday. I was kind of prepared for this since watching the Q&A with Addrianna. The woman was terribly rude, gesturing and saying I should be less slim. So I told her that I love my face as it is, I don’t care if I look too thin, or older, because I am healthy and happier.
(Not entirely true as I‘m still learning to love my „new“ face, but how dare she?)
YAY, YOU !!!! Well done !!!! Well said !!!! Celebrate your journey, your beauty and health, you are perfect as you are.
I slimmed down , shed 71 lbs in my early 30's...back then, some people ( other women) were jealous and said negative things , I had to ignore them. Other people ( of both sexes) were so positive and supportive! I was in fact healthy, and not underweight.
Standards of "looking good" and ideal weight vary WIDELY by culture and country. We best aim to please ourselves and follow our own truths.
Now in my mid 50s, i gained back some, but happily not all of that weight, over the years.....am really enjoying slimming now, in a healthy way. I'm halfway there, to my goal weight. :)
@@HILARI333 exactly, we are all used to seeing people at heavier weights and slim people appear too thin. Thank you, and how fantastic that it‘s going so well for you. Keep going until you are 100% happy!
Great video. I lost 90lbs and people think im.in my 20s. Im.41. But my hormones balanced a bit and my skin is better now
Great video! I'm cold all the time too after losing 80 lbs. I love your saying, " Don't dim your shine to lighten others." Keep your light shining...absolutely!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Love you Carla ❤
Check your iodine levels. If you're cold all the time, they might be low
@@vivtzka thanks! I will look into it 😊
I have just started my weight loss journey and love watching your videos during my lunch break at work. It helps to keep my mind in the right place. I have 80lbs to lose and it seems like such a deep hole to dig out of until I listen to your story. Thank you so much!
the goal is in the process, not in the end weight. One day at a time. You are successful if today your process was good. Not only on that day so far away. Every day can be your success, even the 'off' days that are inevitable. Good luck to you.
You always have wonderful insights about life, not just weight loss. Thank you so much. Showing compassion to ‘haters’ is definitely a higher goal. You are a great inspiration for me on my journey. I’ve just reached my -60 lbs down 😊😊( I’ve another 75lbs to go to my goal weight) 🎉🎉🎉
Love it! As usual, you've given me even more motivation to keep losing. Being cold will help cool down my hot flashes and I wouldn't mind getting back some of the height I've lost from getting older, too! Last time I went to see my doctor the nurse forgot to write down the .9 inches and I told her to rectify that straight away as I'm only 5'3"" and need every mm.
You are such a wise woman! I'm 68 and have my weight go up and down since my teens. Women can be mean and it won't stop with age. I've maintained a 20 lb loss and have 10 more to go. For me now it's my health first and the weight loss is just a happy by product. You have to keep your chin up and do it for you and if someone's not on board with that it's their burden, not yours. You are a blessing to us all. ❤
that competition among women is a result of the patriarchy. It's so important we all stick together, as women are so much more powerful than those violent men when we act as a team.
So I got taller and lost a full shoe size too!
The weirdest thing for me was that my toe nails where revealed. You can store fat on the top of your toes and it over hangs the nails. I can now see my littlest toe nail! It isnt just the sliver i thought it was!
The height thing is more spine compression then you think. I have always had a flat behind, everything was in my belly. And toes. When I lost weight I gained over .5 an inch.
Congrats ! That's so cool about the toenails, and your height.
Fab Carla! I played golf with a woman who’d lost a significant amount of weight, and she huddled near me to catch some of the heat I radiate!🤣 Still haven’t lost it, but ALWAYS find wisdom and inspiration in you.🙂
Thank you. You have been such an inspiration. I discovered your Mental video in January and worked through alot of your videos. I am struggling, but have lost 8kg so far. Have 55kg to go. But I truely need to work on the mental aspect first... In the near future 😊. But I just would like to say that your videos has much value and thank you for being so brave to make them 🐳
I constantly dim my light when I sense others are uncomfortable with me being different from what they expect in any way. I think it’s honestly the hardest factor for me in my whole journey, especially the weight loss part. Any tips that you could offer for that would be greatly appreciated. It is easier for me to catch myself doing anymore but it still isn’t easy to stop myself from doing. I get so upset with myself for upsetting someone else that I just want to fix it right away. Even if it costs me what I really want. Thanks for the fun video!
Thank you for sharing🎉❤
The irony for me is that after weight loss, my slender friends kept making comments about how I need to stop now. 😂 it gets old quick and it’s hard to understand the motivation behind such words. I like your message about not dimming your light for anyone. 🦄
Oh yeah!! I knew that one for sure, almost like “don’t get skinnier than me” perhaps?
Hi Carla, thanks for all the great videos! They’ve been a huge help to me and my sister. We are lined up for our third round of bodyslims next week and each have lost 2.5 stone so far 😊 one of the random things I’ve noticed is that my necklaces have gotten longer! 😂 they don’t finish where they used to, its as if they’ve all grown by 10cm from what I’m used to 😂
Thankyou. Very helpful.
Wow, this is the best weight loss channel I’ve found. Love the honesty. I feel very motivated! Thank you! ❤
Thank Carla great.video 💕
Thank you for this video, I really needed it, Laura ❤❤❤
You have the best nuggets of wisdom. I love your advice re treat those with compassion
And not dimming your light
Love love love your videos 💗Joanne
You are amazing, and I am thankful for your kindness and courage to share yourself with us 🥰
Thanks Carla ❤️
Omg you look so good!
I lost weight in my 20s. I’ve gained it all back and am losing it again. But when I lost weight in my 20s my mum called me “bony nose”. She was charming
damn that's mean. You wrote 'was', has she passed or did you break off contact?
@@d.2110 she died 12 years ago
Hi new subscriber here your video came up on my timeline yesterday. First of all congratulations on your amazing weight loss🎉🎉 second of all so happy to see that you didn’t have surgery or weight loss injections. So much of that going on and people not knowing what the side effects might be. I’m on on my WLS journey I started in January. I lost my way in April but I put a line under it and have got back to it. I have watched a few of your videos and you make so much sense. So happy I came across your channel ❤
🥰😊😊 THANKS SOOO MUCH, Carla !!!! Wonderful video and insights. I'm in the US--discovered ur channel about 6 or 8 weeks ago, .....your work has been a HUGE help and inspiration on my fitness and slimming journey !!! You are SO RIGHT ON re: the inside work.
I'm excited and happy to be moving in the right direction with it!!! Many "non scale victories", even in the slow progress times....(as well as the scales deciding to "play ball" recently, more often. ) I also enjoy cooking super- healthy foods more now, after seeing your vids. Am loving exercising consistently more now.
🍀🍀🍀Thank you Carla- you’re amazing 🖤
I am down 57 lbs since the beginning of January after having a duodenal switch surgery. I really have appreciated your channel before and after surgery. Thank you for sharing all of the experiences in this video!!
After i lost 40 pounds on bodyslims, my sister said, well that's good but you've lost weight before and put it back on so...that was unfair
Wow, that must have really hurt your feelings and was disappointing that your own sister could be so bitter. Hold fast to your positive mindset and know that you’ve made self care your lifestyle.
Wow that's harsh ♥️ I imagine that hurt. Please don't let it discourage you. I know you can do it! I believe in you 🍀
I think the meaning of that all depends on your relationship together. It might also be concern, it might be a warning from her coming from love. We all know jojo'ing is more rule than exception. Especially when diets are used instead of creating new healthy habits. She might have meant it as a concern to say 'don't think you can let go forever now because you'll end up having to do this all over again and I want you to stay happy with yourself', or something. If she meant it deminishing, it's worth to talk to her about it, because that is not ok.
You always have such wisdom to share and in a loving way. You have been my inspiration for healing and losing my weight, I cannot thank you enough 💖! On another note, I am so glad you mentioned being cold. Omg I am always freaking cold! My husband bought a heated mattress pad to help me fall asleep, it’s soooo nice😄. Thank you again ❤️
I have also lost weight and am about half my original size. This episode was the most wonderful gentle hug! The ear lobe size I hadn't noticed until you said it! Shoe size, check. The height issue I can tell you for sure. I lost my weight from age 62 till currently at 66. I have gotten taller as well! I have a flat buttocks! The best part was what you referred to at the end. my experience is very similar. happened later but occurred when I started showing up for myself! No one really understands EXCEPT you. That was a wonderful hug!!! Thank you.❤
I'm at the beginning of my weight loss journey, but I have definitely gone up a shoe size since I started gaining weight (and had kids). One of the things I'm really looking forward to is wearing cute shoes again.
🥰 Thanks, Carla! I have lost two inches in height, over the past two years, and I'm only 46. I have degenerative disc disease, so it's not a super surprise, but it's still really scary. I'm halfway through my weight loss journey and I'm hoping to get those inches back, by the time I'm done with it. My feet have also shrunk, quite a lot. I used to have to find double wide shoes, but can now wear regular width shoes. I haven't lost any length, but that's probably for the best, because I have short little Hobbit feet, to begin with, LOL. Anyway...thanks for making this and I appreciate that it was a bit light-hearted and fun. Blessings! - Claire
Thank you Carla, so inspiring as ever. People do feel uncomfortable when you change. I am 25Ibs down thanks to you and Bodyslims and not finished yet, I am booked on the next round starting next week. It is an amazing programme and it is about so much more than losing weight. It is about changing your mindset and your life. It has given me the confidence to step out into life and my whole energy has changed. I am packing my bag for a weekend away to see friend's that I haven't seen in a while. I will be wearing my new Zara blouse and jacket in a Medium, the large was too big, what joy I felt. There was a time when I couldn't fit into anything in there. Nothing tastes as good as that feels. Thank you Carla and I will be sending a nomination for your influencer award....you totally deserve it. If anyone is thinking about signing up for Bodyslims I would say it is the best investment you will make for yourself. It is unlike any other weightloss programme and believe me I have tried them all. It will change your life. Laura x❤
First time watching your channel, beautiful Carla. You are everything I love about the Irish. Sending you loads of love from Los Angeles 🇮🇪🌴☀️
Awe thank you so much! I’m sure it’s lovely there atm!
Looking great❤
When I was an obese teen, I was a UK size 5 shoe. As a healthy weight adult, I'm now a size 4 and even a 3.5 in high end shoes - and I only lost 3.5 stone. It is amazing where we store fat!
Great video! I noticed my shoe size changed when I was pregnant, but then went back down afterwards. I'm also always cold, but never thought about it being because I'm slimmer. As for height, at 5'1 I'd love to add a little bit, but it hasn't happened so far! This was a lot of fun to watch, thanks!
Thanks for the fun video! As I'm not yet down that much, I just can relate to some of the opposite effects. As per the feet I got one size bigger when I gained that much. They were same width but longer, I had no weight gained there. My doctor explained to me, that my feet had flattened due to my weight, as my muscles and tandons were to weak for the excess weight to hold it's natural curve. So maybe you had the same and now you trained them though walking and with less weight they had the chance to have a curved sole again 😄 Gives me hope to get it back, as due to the flatness my feet hurt a lot 🫣
I'm partially through my weight loss journey (thanks to finding you on YT I did the January Body Slims and will be starting next week for round 2!) but being around the halfway mark I've definitely noticed I'm cold so often! and normally I wouldn't wear a sweater but now I'm bundled up... good thing we'll be entering summer as I lose more weight so maybe I can prepare for winter 😅
Love this. I am about halfway to my goal which I realise is not as dramatic as a lot of people's, so I haven't had any massive changes.
I am currently trying to use all the neglected emojis whenever I can so thank you for the excuse!
👩🏼🌾🍊🎏
☀️☀️☀️ Thank you
Wow. A whole bunch of my personality makes sense now
Yes, cold all the time. I'm down 140lbs, and I'm from Michigan, so I thought I was used to the cold. Compression clothing is good for staying warm and helping with loose skin.
How did you manage to deal with the mental side of it, did you go to counselling? thanks for sharing your journey with us its really encouraging to someone like me who is struggling even after having gastric sleeve surgery. Like you said dealing with the mental side of it if more important than anything else.
I am new to your channel, so I am not sure what your family dynamics are. If you have a spouse or partner, did you find anything changed in your relationship with them? I sometimes worry that if I make a big lifestyle change, will my lifestyle still fit with my husband's? I'm hopeful that my efforts will inspire positive change for him as well. I've only watched a couple of your videos and already you're a huge inspiration to me! ❤
I did Body Slims and my husband said I inspired him. They notice the exercise more than the food change.
Less sweating, could fit into narrower shoes, more bounce in my steps, more attention from the guys which feels not very genuine since I am the same person. However, I’m on the weight loss journey again…
So many unexpected things.....I nearly killed my phone the night before because I dropped it in the bath.
I was expecting it to land on my giant tummy and boobs (which had shrunk dramatically) and it plopped into the water instead!!LOL
Haha love this one 😂 🛀
Yes! I have always had extremely lean feet (very tendony lol) even at my heaviest and yet my shoes are looser now. Wild!
That’s so funny. I realized how clumsy I was feeling and how much I was stumbling when I walk after I lost over 90 pounds (BodySlims). And it finally dawned on me that my shoes were too big. I needed to buy smaller shoes now because I’ve lost weight and somehow my feet got smaller. 😂👟
I've lost about 33lbs (15 kg) for now, so about halfway through. My shoe size decreased from EU42 to EU41 and my fingers became thinner (no surprise), but I was shocked about how much my wrists got thinner. It seems like I've lost about 1 sm in that area, and my arms always were very slim.
I was so surprised at the changes in my body and I'm still amazed in my changes. Cold all the time an understatement this, shoe size I went fro. A US10 to a 9 narrow! I was a 9 narrow in high school.
❤
I’ve only lost 10kg so far, but I’ve noticed that my necklaces hang lower, it’s like they’ve been extended haha. Oh also it looks like my lips and eyes are slightly larger (I guess from the rest of my face shrinking?) haven’t noticed anything different about my nose yet, but I’m excited to see the changes with the next 10kg ☺️
I'm glad you mentioned the jewelry getting larger. I just realized that about mine. I didn't think my neck was that big, but I was wrong.
💜💜💜
When I am heavier I have fluid retention especially in the feet. Could it be that?
❤❤❤❤
Are there people who do bodyslims that have autoimmune diseases or connective tissue issues that affect joints? I
Inflammation is a big part of being overweight - when you reduce your weight, lower inflammation follows. Thus, your nose reduces in size!
Are people treating you defrently now that you lost the weight? ❤❤❤ i love you
I am the way around, I always been slim and very fit but now since 6 miscarriages and menopause, I am overweight. Not super fat, just overweighted and I do not recognize myself. at all.
😊
Carla,do you think you were able to authentically dress and find your style when you got slimmer? Like, im really trendy...in my head, but there is so much i will not wear because of my weight,but i know what my style would be when i do
Oh a million percent, my style has transformed since I lost weight. I’m adventurous, confident and comfortable xx
No worries. In about 10 years you'll start having hot flashes. 😄
When I lost weight about ten years ago, I noticed that all of a sudden the handsome guys who would never look at me, all of a sudden gave me attention. Instead of being happy about that, it made me angry and it felt fake. Because I felt like my size was the only thing they cared about. Of course, it might have been my confidence as well, but I know from a bit of jojo'ing and also being comfortable being bigger, that it actually IS about size for many men, no matter how beautiful you are. But of course, good riddance, this has been a good filter. I should be free to gain weight in the future without him falling out of love because of it. Seeing the superficiality so obviously made me mad though. And not interested in that type of men, which is handsome men. I also remember that sitting outside on a bench or little wall was painful all of a sudden.
❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
The nose!! Happened to me (but the other way). It’s wider now that I’ve gained 25 lbs. 😒
If you're cold all the time, check if you have an iodine deficiency. It's more common than you'd think
💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛💚
I’ve only lost 21 lbs so far, and I spend every night ripping off the duvet due to being boiling. 🥵🥵🥵The other half hates it as he really feels the cold, (he is a slim build)🥶🥶🥶
