That low weight was during detox. She does say she began to put weight back on when her body was healed. And she's now looking to build muscle mass. It's just part of her journey, not her final destination. Sorry to say.
BMI is medical mainstream nonsense made by people who don't understand the human body and how to heal. It's based on an average population of ppl who are sick
Hi, in another comment you asked what toxins are stored in adipose tissue. Here is an article by PubMed which talks about this topic: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3569688/ Thanks for your question and let me know if you have anymore :)
wow so beautiful Olivia ! I am on the journey / fight of my life right now ! Fighting food addiction / binge eating disorder as well as general obesity , it’s been so so difficult. Been vegan for 10 months now and it’s been a blessing. Started working out 🏋️♀️ and developing a fitness plan. it has been hard but I hope and pray I can get to the light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank you for your kind words ❤️ wow you are doing so amazing! Keep focusing on the light at the end of tunnel, but also remember to enjoy the journey and appreciate all the beautiful changes your mind, body and soul are going through.
People, don't fall for this! She looked much healthier and more attractive with the extra 20kg (at 2:24?). She is starving herself. Sorry for my bluntness, but this has to be said. Other girls might think this is normal, but its not :/
amazing.....your eyes are sooo blue.... i find ppl who do enemas are shiny........... ty for your story Olivia....... the enema is helping me breathe deeply... i feel sound......quiet... within...... i also can understand humanity.....ppl are dirty internally.... that is a saying " that one is buggie" and that has been used shamefully...... it's a loving intelligent ...i' m not saying to express it so harshly is loving nor intelligent......
You found the golden key to health👌 your before & after pics are amazing! I'm so happy for you and I can't wait to dive deep into detoxification like you have :) I'm starting tomorrow :) 100% raw. I've been about 75% raw the last year but gonna kick it up to 100% and doing intense fasts like water and dry fasts for those kidneys :) thank you for doing what you do to motivate people all over. You look beautiful and i can see the glow and energy you now hold 👍
Hi Brady, thanks for your beautiful words. I really appreciate it. I'm excited to hear that you are going to dive deeper in to cleansing your mind, body and spirit. I hope it goes well 🙏 sending lots of love and light x
Christina Winterer so much better when I'm eating raw. I feel the negative effects when I go back to try old foods. Nothing beats how light you feel, the energy you have, & the mental clarity you get from eating raw fruits :) the anxiety calms down too. I'm doing my best right now 👍 I hope more people give this a shot :)
Thanks for sharing. It's a similar journey to mine in a way that my heaviest was 58kg and lightest at 39kg. I'm now a healthy weight that has been easy to maintain 😊👍🏽
I wish more people understood how detoxing works. I read a lot of negative things being said about how you look and they don't realize the process that your body went through to cleanse itself! It is a major ordeal! I like how Dr. Morse worded it in one of his videos when he was talking about a man that did a detox. He said that the body is like an old rusty car, you have to take everything out and strip it, sand it all down and bondo it up before you can rebuild it and paint it! Detoxing is literally just like that! Now I can't remember the name of the man that Dr. Morse was talking about, but he showed a picture where he was so skinny and there was nothing to him because his body was stripping everything toxic out of every inch of his body. He was raw then and he is raw now, but when he showed his transformation picture, he looks really buff now! Really a prime example of a healthy fit muscular man. Absolutely amazing! No one would ever guess that the before and after pictures are of the same raw vegan man! The body knows what it is doing! We just have to give it what it wants and then get out of the way! Thank you for sharing your journey! Your eyes look amazing by the way!!! So clear and bright! Mesmerizing for sure! My mom did a fruit detox for 3 months and her melanoma went dormant and her green eyes that she has had all of her life are now almost completely blue! So many people don't understand this process, but your video is helping to bring the truth to the light! Thank you!
Wow thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on this important topic. I wish more people understand the process of detoxification too. But I guess we need to accept that everyone is on their own journey of understanding. It's beautiful to connect with someone like you who just GETS IT though haha. Thanks for sharing that story which Dr. Morse spoke of regarding the body as car - it makes so much sense. I appreciate your love and support and I hope your mum is well
@@OliviaBudgen, Thank you for the reply! I really didn't think you would even see it! You are clearly dedicated, so thank you for that too! I am so happy that I was able to bring some positivity to your comment section! And dare I say, I do think that people would be farther along on their journey to understand if they actually researched a little more about the topic they are trying to speak of! People are so quick to judge, especially when they hear or see something that is not being pumped out by the mainstream. I tend to seek that stuff out, so clearly my brain runs a little different than most! ;D My mother is doing very well! Vegan for 1.5 years now, it has also cured her restless leg syndrome. I went vegan also 1.5 years ago and gluten free 1 year ago and so far I have lost 40 pounds, my depression and anxiety is gone (it was directly linked to wheat) and my eczema has been completely gone for the whole 1.5 years for the first time in 15 years! We will both stay vegan for life! And we will definitely do more fruit feasting detoxes and just last night we even discussed creating a raw day for us to have fun with all year! I have gone raw before for 32 days and that is how I accidentally figured out that the gluten was causing my depression! When I was raw for that 32 days, it showed me exactly what I could feel like when eating the most energetic living foods on the planet! I felt like I was floating! It was like a dream! I remember it so fondly! I wish I never woke up! lol! That cooked food addiction is real for me unfortunately, I am an emotional eater, so I still have things to work through (I like the warm full feeling). But I am still so amazed at how good I felt in my own body! I will definitely be raw again for many more months of my life! I truly feel like everyone should at least experience a month of 100% raw vegan during their lifetime! It's truly magical! You keep leading the way Olivia! You have got a new Subber out of me, so you'll see me around! You take care and don't let the negative comments get to you! They just don't know any better!
Oh Olivia you’re such a sweetheart! What a long way you’ve come - you now shine like the Sun🌞 thanks for sharing your transformation journey with me :-)
Your picture of you when you stopped eating looks like me a year after my break up in 2020 when I couldn't eat several days in a row at a time because I had no appetite from what was going on and how sad my life was because of how I was treated.And I guess how deeply I loved.
Thank you so much for this video. Your journey is a bit similar to mine particularly the bit about people saying how worried they are about how thin you are. I can't tell you how many times people have told me how skinny I am and I just hate that. I got down 107 lbs and from there I have gone up to about a hundred sixteen by eating mostly healthy and lifting weights. I do have to confess that I love to bake and have been making a lot of gluten-free vegan Yummies. But, I have kept it in moderation I think. I haven't yet done a water fast, not quite ready for that. But, I think eventually I will be. Again, thank you for this video, it really resonated with me.
Jennifer Levine thanks so much for your lovely comment Jennifer 💓 and yeah... judgement from others can be tricky to navigate 😒 it sounds like you’re in a wonderful place with your health + life though x x x
You are an inspiration, I love your videos! Thanks for sharing. I’m trying to heal from several health issues and it’s reassuring to know that it’s normal for healing to take a long time. I’m just wondering how long it took until your symptoms dramatically improved? I am over 2 months in but still detoxing heavily and not seeing much improvement.
Hi Jessica, apologies for the delayed reply. The comment didn't come up in my notifications. I'm glad you enjoyed this video :) I noticed an improvements in some of my symptoms within a month, but other deep rooted issues have taken months, and some even years, to improve. Keep at it
You look great, I love thin and a clear conscience. I was eating meals with all of ingredients and I felt to bloated and terrible. I will not go raw 100% but will definitely be close. I ate almost the whole day raw and feel great. Thanks for your video.😊
I wonder if the weakness you felt in the beginning was due to not getting enough calories with your raw diet. Do you know how many calories you consume per day? I want to try a fruit/raw diet but I'm worried about not eating enough, since not everyone can stomach 30 bananas a day! I'm thinking of starting with applesauce, I know it's cooked apples, but it's easier to chew and digest than raw apples and easier to reach the required minimum of 1200 calories a day. I don't want to enter this diet feeling weak and undernourished.
No it wasn't due to not eating enough calories. It was definitely detoxification, because I began feeling better and I didn't change the amount of food I was consuming. You definitely don't need to eat 30 bananas a day... I don't adhere to the information about everyone needing to eat a particular number of calories. I believe you have to do what feels right for your body. If you are worried about not consuming enough, ensure you're consuming the healthy fats like avocados and soaked nuts and seeds. That's where the calorie density lies.
You're always inspiring Olivia! When I saw you for the first time on RUclips, you inspired me a lot into eating Whole Raw foods ( I was getting back into Plant Based diet). Fully Raw seemed a lil' hard so I've decided to eat Raw Till 4 and then transition to a Fully Raw Diet. My skin cleared up a lot! And I can feel that my brain is working way better! I feel like I have found the key to healthy living at such a young age (13 years). Plus, I would loovve to meet you cuz you are so so inspiring! Please keep encouraging and inspiring people by your actions and stay blessed!There are very less people like you in this World! And tbh you cleared up all the negative things I had in my mind a out Raw Veganism! And can you make a Video Series of Raw Vegan Recipes like 2-3 recipes in a video? Thanks a million for being my inspiration! Love Mars xx 😗😗😗😗
Hamza, thank you so much for these beautiful, heart-felt words ❤️ it really means a lot that I inspire you to continue making healthy choices... and at the age of 13... WOW! You are amazing! I will put that recipe video request on my list. Sending you so much love and light x
It’s great you’re following a vegan diet! I follow a vegan diet also, and I love it! But I just wanted to say, and I hope this isn’t inappropriate, but you are a hottie at any weight!
I am so glad I found your channel and your transformation is amazing! I suffer from IBS-D and I struggle with going Raw because it seems to make mine worse. Not sure why but I have a hard time digesting a lot of raw food. It so hard to get worse and have so much pain. I also am the kind of person that needs a list to follow to help the start. With not feeling well having to think about what to eat seems too much. I need a list to follow for breakfast, lunch and dinner with how to make them.
Yes some fruits watermelon is tough and pineapple gives me sores in my mouth. Smoothies I don't do because they are tough. I have done some juices but the green ones are tougher. Not sure if I need to just get rid of everything and start fresh? Tried just drinking water but I get so hungry.
While you are still very cute and seem extremely smart I have to say that your "before pictures" are much more beautiful and visually more healthy looking.
I think you are now body and food obsessed, an eating disorder regardless of how pure your diet is. Ive been there and the fact that you eat so little and only raw will eventually show. Please just admit that you are afraid of gaining weight! i think you were beautiful back then.
Thanks for your concern, but I won't admit that I'm afraid of gaining weight, because I'm not. The reason I shared this story has nothing to do with beauty, it has to do with a health and wellness transformation.
Great video Olivia! Very inspiring! I have been raw vegan for 4 months now and have not lost any weight. I have alot of water weight and would say I am much like you are in your before photos. How long did it take for you to see weight changes? Do you know why I might not be losing any weight? Did you gain weight before losing weight? I have heard that people who come from a background of restricted eating can put on weight at the start. Maybe fruits don't work well for me? I lost weight on a high protein and high fat diet and now high carbs are making me gain weight! I wish I was like yourself and lost weight :(
Hi Amber, thanks for your comment. There are many reasons you might not be losing weight. I lost weight very quickly. How do you feel on a fruit-based diet? If you feel better eating more protein and fat, perhaps you should focus more on greens and veggies :)
THIS IS CRAZY BC I have the same issue I have been stuck in the same binge/purge/restrict cycle and am looking for a more natural way to recover! I wanted to check out videos for raw veganism for recovery, its crazy because this was suggested to me and I decided to watch it but thank you for posting this I think I may just try raw veganism for my health and the animals!!!
Loved this video and it’s so amazing to see your transformation... Thank you for sharing! How long did it take for you to see weight changes? Did you put on weight initially because of your ED?
Glad you enjoyed the video Emma. I had my eating disorder before going raw vegan, and it yo-yo'd, so I lost a lot, and then put it back on. When I went raw vegan I noticed changes in my weight very quickly - in a matter of days.
Thanks for your reply Olivia. Obviously I am raw vegan for more of the health benefits, but I am hoping I can lose some weight soon, I am holding on to a lot of water.
Hi Olivia! Thank's for sharing your story. How long were your extended water fast? I'm on day 6. I was not feeling good and very weak so I tried doing coffee enemas and I really feel better now. You look stunning by the way, you are glowing positive healthy vibe 🙂
Hi Jennifer, thank you so much! You can do a 1 day water fast at home by yourself - simply drink clean distilled or spring water and don't eat anything. I always recommend going to a professional retreat or clinic to undertake an extended water fast though.
No, it's better not to drink distilled water. It's natural minerals are gone and thus water will abstract minerals from your body. It might be dangerous for your health.
Awesome video! Do you think your next step in your health journey will be an increase in exercise? It seems like it would be hard to make much more improvement as far as the food you eat is concerned, it looks so good. If you did I suppose you would also start eating more?
Yes I think I'll definitely begin incorporating some light, resistant weight training or something 🤔 and yes perhaps I'd begin eating more. We'll see 😁
No I don't do anything too intense as I'm still healing my adrenal glands. I do rebounding and yoga mostly. I have an exercise routine video I made last year if you want to check it out :)
Thanks for leaving such a lovely comment. I did Tyler Tolman's water fast retreat in Bali. I'm not exactly sure if he does the water ones at the moment anymore, but you can find out for yourself: www.tylertolman.com
This is beautiful and you are beautiful to! I’m mostly raw 90% but only eat a cooked meal at night if I’m hungry but I mostly eat fruit! I was so unhealthy when I was 15-17 I was literally the same I was drinking and drinking 20cans of soft drinks each day and literally eating shit like chips and cookies as meals! Then I went vegan and it changed my life even tho in between that began lifestyle change I had a eating disorder which sorta fucked me up again but now being vegan I’ve keeped a healthy weight!
Thanks for sharing your journey Jacqui 😊 wow 20 cans of soft drink per day! That's crazy!! So glad you have come to a place where you feel healthier and have a healthy weight. Lots of love x x
yeah when i think about it how i used to live and eat it really makes me think how im still living now i was so horrible to myself and didnt even see it! Thankyou you to your videos always inspire me and remind me how far ive come
I'm 4'10 and overweight. But your videos are really helping me to change. Can you please uploads more exercise routine/food diet please Especially because I'm a beginner
I’m 4’11” and snuck up to 115 and am not feeling good at all! I definitely am deciding to get back to healthier eating habits. When I was not snacking on a ton of junk I was between 94-102. It cool to hear someone my height talk about this!!
Olivia, I’ve never before seen a photo of you taken during the period of your life when you ate cooked food. The person who looks out from those old photos is unrecognisable from the person who makes the videos today.
Olivia Budgen you dont look well. you need to eat more cooked food. eating raw is ok short term but for me it made my health worse after i did it for over 6 months.
Anna Smith thanks for sharing your experience. I'm sorry you feel that a raw diet didn't work for you. It is certainly working for me though, and many, many others out there 🙂
you we so beautiful before. You used to look healthy. You seemed to have lost all your looks and you look very ill now. Sad. :( I hope things turn around for you.
Cant believe how much people are buying this, no wonder you felt like sh*t at the start of your diet because 1. you drop your calories dramatically and 2. you completely neglect protein which is essential for your body as well as fat. You shocked your body and it struggled to maintain homeostasis so first it slows down your metabolism which makes you feel like sh*t i was talking about. Then it started to burn your muscle to get protein because you are not giving it any and burned fat at the end when you were already drained out. This agony lasted for the whole time until you lost those 15kg of muscle and 5kg of fat your body thought you dont need anymore to finaly start feeling better when maintaining new homeostasis. Basically thats the reason you look this way, you are by no means healthy and your metabolism is damaged...works for all you vegans! You can do whatever you want with this information, peace.
if you weighed 57 kg and you lost 20kg that means you now weigh 37 kg(81 Lbs). your BMI is 16.8 which is in the underweight category.. sorry to say.
That low weight was during detox. She does say she began to put weight back on when her body was healed. And she's now looking to build muscle mass. It's just part of her journey, not her final destination. Sorry to say.
BMI is medical mainstream nonsense made by people who don't understand the human body and how to heal. It's based on an average population of ppl who are sick
@@andrewraphael5000 there is no time and place where 81 lbs is healthy for a fully developed female!
@@mariahzalera2123 she's 4'11
Mariah Zalera I agree. Even my 11 year old son is 40kg
DON'T FALL FOR THIS VIDEO, SHE IS STARVING HERSELF.

😵omg.. good luck , my friend! You'll need it!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that was funny!
I appreciate all of your kindness, love and support 🙏 x x x x
Haha. You make me blush. Thank you :)
If it meant that I would have eyes like you... then I would become vegan. But then again, I'm islander that'll be like denying myself lol
You got to the best version of yourself.
Aw thank you 😊 xx
Agreed!
I can’t really recognise you from the old photos. Now that’s a transformation! It’s like you’ve been reborn!
So proud of how far you’ve come💛
Simona E. I feel reborn 😌 thank you so much xx
People, don't fall for this! She looked much healthier and more attractive with the extra 20kg (at 2:24?). She is starving herself. Sorry for my bluntness, but this has to be said. Other girls might think this is normal, but its not :/
Wow you have literally transformed into a different person & you look younger now than you did in your teens !! absolutely Glowing my friend ❤️
I'm so glad you've noticed the changes Miles 😙😙 thank you!
You looked better before going vegan. Period.
factually correct, vegans are destroying themselves for a contradicting ideology
You look great now. I'm going back to being a raw vegan. I feel much better healing myself with healthy raw foods.
Wow! The way you look now, I would have never guessed that you used to live like that. Amazing...

You definitely don't need to eat 30 bananas a day... I don't adhere to the information about everyone needing to eat a particular number of calories. I believe you have to do what feels right for your body. If you are worried about not consuming enough, ensure you're consuming the healthy fats like avocados and soaked nuts and seeds. That's where the calorie density lies.
I really feel this story. ❤thanks for sharing. Beautiful
You're welcome! Thanks for being here xo
You are so inspiring and absolutely beautiful! ✨💞✨ I’ve been curious though what mascara you use?
Thank you so much
I love your story Olivia, thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much Tom
Now that's a true glow up!! Inside & out
Yes you have to try it when you are ready. I can do a what I do in a day video 🙂 xx
You're always inspiring Olivia! When I saw you for the first time on RUclips, you inspired me a lot into eating Whole Raw foods ( I was getting back into Plant Based diet). Fully Raw seemed a lil' hard so I've decided to eat Raw Till 4 and then transition to a Fully Raw Diet. My skin cleared up a lot! And I can feel that my brain is working way better! I feel like I have found the key to healthy living at such a young age (13 years). Plus, I would loovve to meet you cuz you are so so inspiring! Please keep encouraging and inspiring people by your actions and stay blessed!There are very less people like you in this World! And tbh you cleared up all the negative things I had in my mind a out Raw Veganism! And can you make a Video Series of Raw Vegan Recipes like 2-3 recipes in a video? Thanks a million for being my inspiration!
Love Mars xx 😗😗😗😗
Hamza, thank you so much for these beautiful, heart-felt words ❤️ it really means a lot that I inspire you to continue making healthy choices... and at the age of 13... WOW! You are amazing! I will put that recipe video request on my list. Sending you so much love and light x
Olivia Budgen Thanks a million! You are such a babe!
It’s great you’re following a vegan diet! I follow a vegan diet also, and I love it! But I just wanted to say, and I hope this isn’t inappropriate, but you are a hottie at any weight!
John Paradise aw thank you hehe 😁 good on you for being vegan 🙏🏻
Olivia you look so much better now,, Much Healthier. Love your transformation.!!!
Thank you so much David. I appreciate your support and love!
That’s awesome! Congratulations on your determination and achievements.
Thank you so much Ray 😍 I hope you're doing well.
I can relate i used to work in night clubs before i found detox, Your glowing with life, thanks for sharing Olivia
Haha ah the good old night clubs 😄 I'm glad we've both found the detox lifestyle 🙏 thank you!
Wow you are glowing! Are you still eating a raw food diet?
Thanks so much :) yes still 100% raw.
@@OliviaBudgen great!
How are you? Are you going to start making videos again?
@@PathtoWellness1979 I am working on a new one coming out fairly soon ☺️ Would love to make them regularly again - just doing the best I can.
@@OliviaBudgen thanks 😊
Excellent video!! Thank you for sharing your inspirational journey. Touching on true health of detox, fasting - mind body and soul! Blessings 😍
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you for such a lovely and heart-warming comment x
Your eyes are soooo beautiful !!!
Thanks for your video olivia, very inspiring.
I am so glad I found your channel and your transformation is amazing! I suffer from IBS-D and I struggle with going Raw because it seems to make mine worse. Not sure why but I have a hard time digesting a lot of raw food. It so hard to get worse and have so much pain. I also am the kind of person that needs a list to follow to help the start. With not feeling well having to think about what to eat seems too much. I need a list to follow for breakfast, lunch and dinner with how to make them.
Hello my dear, thank you for your kind words. Do you have trouble digesting fresh whole fruit, smoothies and juices?
Yes some fruits watermelon is tough and pineapple gives me sores in my mouth. Smoothies I don't do because they are tough. I have done some juices but the green ones are tougher. Not sure if I need to just get rid of everything and start fresh? Tried just drinking water but I get so hungry.
Do you practice food combining? Don't worry about doing a water fast right now... focus on consuming simple, fresh, whole plant foods.
Amazing improvement. Bravo!
Maria de la Torre thank you 🙏🏻
While you are still very cute and seem extremely smart I have to say that your "before pictures" are much more beautiful and visually more healthy looking.
those alien eyes D:
...
they are beautiful xD but that light is strange xD omg
Contacts, but It feels like she tries to hypnotize you... lol
Ring light for the camera reflected in her eyes.
You looked better before.
nnno
NyttNorge no she didn’t she looks absolutely beautiful now
Thank you for this video!
You're welcome
Woww! So inspiring! Thanks for sharing
You're welcome Searah xxx thank you!
Really inspirational!
Thank you so much Sunel x
I think you are now body and food obsessed, an eating disorder regardless of how pure your diet is. Ive been there and the fact that you eat so little and only raw will eventually show. Please just admit that you are afraid of gaining weight! i think you were beautiful back then.
Thanks for your concern, but I won't admit that I'm afraid of gaining weight, because I'm not. The reason I shared this story has nothing to do with beauty, it has to do with a health and wellness transformation.
Everyly i agree. i feel sorry for her, she is not eating anywhere near enough
If you are too underweight, it could lead to health problems. It does make me worried about her.
Beautiful Olivia! You look stunning. Healthy and glowing and so much younger now. ❤️🙌🏽🧘🏻♀️
Thank you so so much :)
You were beautiful before, you are beautiful now, nothing has changed 👌😊
methebeachbum this video wasn’t in relation to beauty, but thank you anyway ☺️😊
I liked this video ! Your path was so much similar to mine !
Sabine Boury thank you - I'm so glad you can relate x
Great video Olivia! Very inspiring! I have been raw vegan for 4 months now and have not lost any weight. I have alot of water weight and would say I am much like you are in your before photos. How long did it take for you to see weight changes? Do you know why I might not be losing any weight? Did you gain weight before losing weight? I have heard that people who come from a background of restricted eating can put on weight at the start. Maybe fruits don't work well for me? I lost weight on a high protein and high fat diet and now high carbs are making me gain weight! I wish I was like yourself and lost weight :(
Hi Amber, thanks for your comment. There are many reasons you might not be losing weight. I lost weight very quickly. How do you feel on a fruit-based diet? If you feel better eating more protein and fat, perhaps you should focus more on greens and veggies :)
Just started raw n vegan
Aw yay! I'm so happy for you
THIS IS CRAZY BC I have the same issue I have been stuck in the same binge/purge/restrict cycle and am looking for a more natural way to recover! I wanted to check out videos for raw veganism for recovery, its crazy because this was suggested to me and I decided to watch it but thank you for posting this I think I may just try raw veganism for my health and the animals!!!
You're so very welcome
Loved this video and it’s so amazing to see your transformation... Thank you for sharing! How long did it take for you to see weight changes? Did you put on weight initially because of your ED?
Glad you enjoyed the video Emma. I had my eating disorder before going raw vegan, and it yo-yo'd, so I lost a lot, and then put it back on. When I went raw vegan I noticed changes in my weight very quickly - in a matter of days.
Thanks for your reply Olivia. Obviously I am raw vegan for more of the health benefits, but I am hoping I can lose some weight soon, I am holding on to a lot of water.
I'm sure the weight will eventually stop off, if the body thinks it is unnecessary.
I love love love 😍 you and your lifestyle. I want to transition to raw vegan because I have a lot to detox. You are really inspiring ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Halima x
Awesome, Video, thank you for sharing, love, Diana Lipski, a 9 years Vegan Lady and I am Loving this Loving Lifestyle 💕Your Skin looks, Amazing 😍
Hi Diana 💕 Happy to hear you’re loving this lifestyle 🍒🍑🥭🍅🥝🥦 Thank you xxxx
well done hon...you look great and remind me of my daughter...I am trying to go raw and this has inspired me again..
Hi Olivia! Thank's for sharing your story. How long were your extended water fast? I'm on day 6. I was not feeling good and very weak so I tried doing coffee enemas and I really feel better now. You look stunning by the way, you are glowing positive healthy vibe 🙂
Hi Olivia! Love hearing your story! Is there a certain water cleanse you recommend? Very interested:) thanks
Hi Jennifer, thank you so much! You can do a 1 day water fast at home by yourself - simply drink clean distilled or spring water and don't eat anything. I always recommend going to a professional retreat or clinic to undertake an extended water fast though.
Thank you!! I am so inspired by your videos!! Thank you so much for responding.
No, it's better not to drink distilled water. It's natural minerals are gone and thus water will abstract minerals from your body. It might be dangerous for your health.
Awesome video! Do you think your next step in your health journey will be an increase in exercise? It seems like it would be hard to make much more improvement as far as the food you eat is concerned, it looks so good. If you did I suppose you would also start eating more?
Yes I think I'll definitely begin incorporating some light, resistant weight training or something 🤔 and yes perhaps I'd begin eating more. We'll see 😁
Okay cool, keen to see how it goes. Do you already do any running or anything?
No I don't do anything too intense as I'm still healing my adrenal glands. I do rebounding and yoga mostly. I have an exercise routine video I made last year if you want to check it out :)
Okay, thanks!
She looks better before - 2:21
You are glowing !
Thank you 😍
ey lookin good and younger ! Might try it :P
My physical body?? Wait... what???
another great video!
Thank you so much Katherine xxx
Thanks for making this video! How long did it take you to heal from the symptoms you mentioned?
Great Video!!! Thank you!!!Hugs, Dawn
You're welcome!! Thank you :)
Thank you for being inspiring
Thanks for leaving such a lovely comment. I did Tyler Tolman's water fast retreat in Bali. I'm not exactly sure if he does the water ones at the moment anymore, but you can find out for yourself: www.tylertolman.com
thank you Olivia ! Appreciate your time answering my comment :) have a wonderful day
This is beautiful and you are beautiful to! I’m mostly raw 90% but only eat a cooked meal at night if I’m hungry but I mostly eat fruit! I was so unhealthy when I was 15-17 I was literally the same I was drinking and drinking 20cans of soft drinks each day and literally eating shit like chips and cookies as meals! Then I went vegan and it changed my life even tho in between that began lifestyle change I had a eating disorder which sorta fucked me up again but now being vegan I’ve keeped a healthy weight!
Thanks for sharing your journey Jacqui 😊 wow 20 cans of soft drink per day! That's crazy!! So glad you have come to a place where you feel healthier and have a healthy weight. Lots of love x x
yeah when i think about it how i used to live and eat it really makes me think how im still living now i was so horrible to myself and didnt even see it! Thankyou you to your videos always inspire me and remind me how far ive come
Jacqui Rose its just fruit in a can
I'm so glad my videos serve as a reminder for how far you've come. You are doing so amazingly well
I'm 4'10 and overweight. But your videos are really helping me to change. Can you please uploads more exercise routine/food diet please Especially because I'm a beginner
francy morales I upload videos when I can ☺️🙏🏻 I will have a new exercise one coming up in the future 💕
@@OliviaBudgen Thank you for responding pretty! I can't wait❤
Before pic looks healthier and not like starving after pic.
from healthy to sick. sorry to say.
she wasnt healthy back then...
I thought you were gorgeous either way
Thank you 🥰
Wow great info and way to take back your life!!!!
YES that's what it's all about 😍 thank you so much!
Do you eat dates too? I love having fresh medjool dates for lunch :)))
I do eat dates :) so yummy xx
She looks a bit frail but kudos to her for working to improve her health!
I LOVE thick girls!
Wow you have a beautiful glow your eyes are so bright
Thank you so much Daphne x
I’m 4’11” and snuck up to 115 and am not feeling good at all! I definitely am deciding to get back to healthier eating habits. When I was not snacking on a ton of junk I was between 94-102. It cool to hear someone my height talk about this!!
Samantha Estock glad you enjoyed this video Samantha 💜 it does sneak up on you sometimes hey? 😌
What aspects of health are you still working with?
All aspects 🙏 I am particularly working on heavy metal detoxification and healing my adrenal glands.
Olivia, I’ve never before seen a photo of you taken during the period of your life when you ate cooked food. The person who looks out from those old photos is unrecognisable from the person who makes the videos today.
Guillaume de Warenne thank you so much for your soulful and insightful comment 😌 I'm so glad you can see and feel the difference from my evolution.
Olivia Budgen you dont look well. you need to eat more cooked food. eating raw is ok short term but for me it made my health worse after i did it for over 6 months.
Anna Smith thanks for sharing your experience. I'm sorry you feel that a raw diet didn't work for you. It is certainly working for me though, and many, many others out there 🙂
Olivia Budgen olivia, you are trying to be too healthy. You do not eat enough calories .
but you do what you want.
You are amazing 💓💓💓. I love your channel.👏👏👏
Great job. Kiss
Thank you so much Carla 😙😙
so happy for u
Raw Delight thank you so much 🙏🏻
you we so beautiful before. You used to look healthy. You seemed to have lost all your looks and you look very ill now. Sad. :( I hope things turn around for you.
Thank you for sharing your journey to health with us. You are very beautiful. Keep
You're welcome - thank you so much! :)
Wow I had no idea you & your body went through so much. Did you always eat low-fat raw & fruit based from the beginning of your raw journey?
No I ate high fat gourmet raw for a few months, but quickly realised that was a mistake 😂
Absolutely love you 😍
sounds like a pattern of binging on extremes. settle down you dont need to fast thats crazy
you're wrong
Cant believe how much people are buying this, no wonder you felt like sh*t at the start of your diet because 1. you drop your calories dramatically and 2. you completely neglect protein which is essential for your body as well as fat. You shocked your body and it struggled to maintain homeostasis so first it slows down your metabolism which makes you feel like sh*t i was talking about. Then it started to burn your muscle to get protein because you are not giving it any and burned fat at the end when you were already drained out. This agony lasted for the whole time until you lost those 15kg of muscle and 5kg of fat your body thought you dont need anymore to finaly start feeling better when maintaining new homeostasis. Basically thats the reason you look this way, you are by no means healthy and your metabolism is damaged...works for all you vegans! You can do whatever you want with this information, peace.
