“I’m not going to be bullied into a corner to not care about being thinner. I’ve spent the majority of my adult life being heavy - I deserve to feel good in my skin for once. Fully.” FELT.
I did IF and cut out carbs. Rice, pasta, bread, chips, junk food period. No fast food, no Starbucks, no dunkin. Lost 30lbs in 2.5 months. I walked every day. I still have 10lbs more to go. I went from 8/10 to 4/6 size. I got my jawline back. I also fit into clothes from 20 years ago. I am trying to eat more protein and do more strength training especially bc of my age. Middle aged. I feel so good and look great in new clothes. My knee pain is gone! Have more energy. Loving life. If I can do it you can too. Bless your ur journey ❤❤❤❤
Yeah the whole "I love myself the way I am" (even if I'm unhealthy, depressed and sometimes cry when I look at myself in the mirror) Don't anyone believe that shit. No one is content with themselves when they're obese. Hell, I see women that are solid 10's and they still aren't content with themselves so I really find it hard to believe that nonsense.
Not only that but it’s encourages to stay the way you are and simply cover it by and with “confidence” which really isn’t even confidence. It’s just aggression. Heal!
"$400-$500 dollars a week on food" is so EASY TO DO in a big American city, it blows my mind. I cut out coffee, alcohol and takeaway (and no delivery fees or Ubers to get food) and I am rollin' in the dough like Scrooge McDuck. You said it, girl, "Sheesh!" Homecooked meals and being super cute at the farmers markets are my rewards.

When I realized that intermittent fasting was just eating three times a day and portion control, that made me realize that American food culture is different/toxic. It trains you to FEEL your body and eat when you're actually hungry and stop when you're full. Before that, I would snack all day and probably only eat 1 BIG meal a day and give into cravings. After about a week of doing it, it just became super easy cause my body had adjusted
@@ashleyburks4639 No, because her point was that she was eating one big meal but snacking all day. Snacking all day is not intermittent fasting. Now she has three meals but no snacking she’s spending fewer hours eating.
This has been a wakeup call for me. I am not just overweight, I'm straight up unhealthy. "I was carrying weight in weird places." That is where I am at; bloated, sweating frequently, and my chin invited her bestie. You have inspired me to take care of myself and stop mistreating my body! 💚 You look bella bambina!
I am starting my health journey in my 33 years of age. This video motivated me. Please whenever you see my comment like it so that i keep revisiting her video for motivation. I am already doing a 30 days challenge will come back and post how it goes.❤❤❤
The romanticizing eating part is SPOT ON! Our programming and culture is heavy on that. And it is seriously a mind contamination. This was very informative and thorough. Applause 👏🏽
"people think that you are more disciplined, healthier and better when you're thinner" that's just the truth. As someone who's come out of the "I don't care how I look" mentality into the "I want to look good because if I look good, I will feel good, I know it" this can't be more true. Thank you for being so honest. I've always wished I was thinner. I'm not getting any of the results I want but I will keep on trying. This video offered me some fresh perspective and a little nudge to keep trying and not give up. Thank you, Hailey.
Being thin has nothing to do with discipline. I know thin ppl that eat like trash. Being thin doesn’t mean that person is healthy. Sometimes it’s just genetics as well
Heavy on the not going another year disliking something that you can change! I've felt bad about wanting to be skinny because my body positivity girlies would say, "it's not about how you look" or "wanting to be skinny is a toxic goal". I'm not going another year pretending I don't care. I can't wait to give myself the body and external confidence I deserve.
I work in the natural food industry and have always had all the supplements, detoxes and probiotics at my disposal. Nothing worked chile, UNTIL I STARTED GETTIN IN MY GALLON OF WATER DAILY. If you still find yourself struggling after dietary and exercise changes, that's usually the last missing piece ❤
I just love you so much ❤ I am so happy for you and the greens in the video that are wearing and this video and the last one are giving 😊 veggies are the best and currently eating Seoul kimchi ! You look amazing. 💕
Healthy eating, healing my gut, routine exercising, self love are my goals for 2024✨ thank you Hailey for giving me the encouragement & push that I needed to continue this journey!
girl i have never, ever, ever in my life watched a yt video about health and didn't wander off then close my laptop after 3 minutes in until i saw this. i love the way you put your thoughts into words. thank you so much for making this video! all love
I had the biggest cry today. I’ve struggled with my weight all my life. I was at the best shape a few years ago and then gained so much due to stress and depression. I’m at a point when I am tired of feeling so awful in my body. I deserve to feel beautiful. 💖
awww , trust me bb you have to first let go of that hurt and you have to love yourself and eat healthy , after that you can start working out , trust me this works
This is the REALEST weight-loss video I’ve ever seen. You are so direct, dont sugar coat things and gave me the tough love i needed. Thank you so much for not making us feel like you are trying to sell us something or persuade us to buy into a certain dream - you were just transparent and inspired me through your raw emotions and sense of relief and lightness you are showing. Thank you for this.
I absolutely LOVE this video! As a registered dietitian and woman of color, it's very disheartening to see so many of us being complacent about being overweight. Even if your genetics are "stacked against you" there is something you can do about it. The body positivity movement has caused so many of us to stay in bodies that we don't truly love. Your quality of life is more important than the aesthetic of losing weight, but once you lose you'll never want to go back. Most of the time, we need to address how to process our emotions without using food. That's when you can really keep the weight off (if you're an emotional eater). Thank you for your raw honesty in this video and hopefully many will take action to create a healthier lifestyle from watching.
Lol body negativity is worse than body positivity. Nothing wrong with being positive about your body and it’s natural size or women with muscular bodies. That being said if you are truly positive about your body you will treat it right. When people are negative about their bodies they stress eat, do plastic surgery, starve themselves and mess their body up even more.
Especially in the Blk community. I’m slim, and it’s encouraged to gain weight there for some reason. Like if I don’t have a fluffy body, no one will want me. I get skinny shamed a lot. Also by the men. So I removed myself and was around people that didn’t do that. They just happen to be of other races. Including the men. WM. Love my shape. It’s crazy.
@@LilithTheAquarian369 So true. The BC will shame skinny or slim bodies as unattractive or having little boyish bodies. I was thinking about this from another video. Having that thick or "baddie" body type attracts a certain type of men. Slim build women are usually seen with a certain class of men too.
Probs to you girl for saying out loud that being overweight doesn't FEEL good. It is not only heavy on your body literally, but also heavy on your mind! Saying this out loud in this "body-positivity" world could be seen as rebellious (as your are girl ;) )! I feel the same way and feel inspired to 1. decide on my word for 2024 and 2. to speak truthfully with myself (I deserve to actually become HER - the best version of me I can imagine). Thank you so much for your daily insipration so far!
Omg yes ! First off when you’ve been fat you can say you hate being fat I don’t make the rules 😂 also I’m too old to care if it’s rebellious I’m just being real according to my life ❤ thanks for the comment
I used to have severe menstrual cramps that sometimes got me admitted in the hospital. My mum advised me to try changing my diet and cleansing my system. Can you believe that in the past four to five months, I have not experienced any excruciating pain. Just a dull ache now. Couldn't be more grateful 🙏😁
My word for 2024 is Elevation. Turning 30 this year unlocked an entirely new perspective/mindset of learning to love and be myself unapologetically. I used to think of course I love myself but really I loved what other people loved about me. Learning to step into my authenticity has been a game changer and now I too refuse to go into another year disliking something about myself that I can change. Thank you for being you and inspiring others, like myself, to do the same. Love you Hails
I turned 30 in October and I feel the same. I’ve decided to take voice lessons which is something I always wanted to do, and I’m now taking steps to get out of a career I feel stuck in. My next step is to work on my physical health too because it affects my mental so much.
@@itsNaturallyCrystaldon't get scared. You can ease into it like anything else. Eventually you will not even feel hungry. I even workout in a fasted state & feel great. I lost 45 pounds in the last year & intermittent fasting was the missing key other than dietary changes.
“I am divinely blessed and protected by God” yes sis! Thank you for being honest. It’s so discouraging to have to kill yourself in the gym just to not gain weight. I was my lowest when I fasted and I’m gonna reclaim my fasting thanks to these videos.
Yes! Your story sounds so similar to mine. Especially the part about having all this knowledge and not utilizing it. I started eating one ingredient foods. Fruits, veggies, lean meats, fish, lots of water, fasting and walking 4-5 miles a day, it literally was a game changer. in two months everyone noticed not only the difference in the way I looked but my attitude and energy changed substantially as well. Same happened to me my period regulated. At the beginning I also broke out like crazy on my jaw line, neck and back and now it’s so clear. I lost 35 lbs in two months. Congratulations on you feeling good and looking FANTASTIC!
I could’ve wrote this myself! 35lb this year , and mentally it’s a different experience being lean! Everyone wants your advice on life all the sudden because thinness symbolizes discipline ❤️
As someone with IBS and GERD, I can relate to having to drastically change your eating habits and noticing the difference it has on your mental clarity!
what has helped you having GERD? what has worked for you to remove from your diet? so far I've only eliminated spicy foods and that has helped as well as a lot of tomatoes sauces
Healing my gut is my goal this 2024. I’ve gained so much weight and stopped working out because of school and work. Your tips are something I plan to incorporate to get back in track ❤
I gained a lot of weight during quarantine and I’ve had a terrible body image. I’ve had body dysmorphia even since I was younger, when I was thin. I always saw myself as “big”. Last year was the year that I genuinely learned to accept my body for what it was and to enjoy it. The thing is, I wasn’t being healthy about it. Now that I’m more observant about everything that’s going on with me, I want to be healthier. I’ve decided to actually start my weight loss journey the right way, I’m feeling really good about this!!
I started fasting on 11/26/2023 and I weighed in at 140lbs. It’s now 12/10/2023 and I’m at 131lbs! I’ve struggled for so long with my weight; long fasts combined with healthier foods / smaller portions seems to work best for me. What triggered it all was a breakup and a book, “Fast Like a Girl” by Dr Mindy Pelz. I would highly recommend it. Loved your video Hail ❤
Yes girl! It works so fast! I lost 20 lbs in like 7 weeks! I highly recommend fasting and it’s great for your body and regulating your blood sugar! Great for brain health too!
I started seeing a holistic functional doctor because I have consistently struggled with weight all my life and it turns out my gut was all out of whack, even outside of the weight loss, things always felt off. Gut health is really core to overall health
The most 🔥part of this video is when you said your word for 2024 is UNSTOPPABLE. I felt that. I literally yelled at the screen “you go babygirl”. I lost 25 pounds recently and everything you said is 100% facts. You got this. Keep going.
I appreciate this video. I’m not overweight, but I do have gut issues and hormonal problems. I’m currently overseas and a lot of my hormonal symptoms vanished….which has made me scared to return to the states (because my diet didn’t change that much) I can only assume it is the pesticides and GMOS allowed in America. A lot of ingredients used in the states are illegal elsewhere….anyways. I made notes from your video for when I return. I do appreciate the time you took to make this video. I’ll implement some new things to work on my gut health. I’ve had acid reflux for 10 years and I’m only 24….again. Thanks.
Yes!! I deployed twice in the army and both times I ate the same or more and lost weight and felt good. Then I came back to the States and everything reversed
My mom has high cholesterol so much that she can’t even eat chicken without getting a red rash all over her hands. When she went to Mexico to go see her family and only stayed within her small town. She at first was not eating any meat. But she gave in when her mom made her famous pozole with a chicken that was from her dads farm. She had no red rash after eating it. The next day she ate even ate her moms spicy meatballs, no red rash. After that she was eating pork rinds, carnitas, barbacoa, even sweets, and of course eating veggies and fruits, beans, and tortillas. She didn’t get any bad symptoms at all though out those next 2 weeks. She in fact lost 10 pounds, as well as my little brother. They weren’t sight seeing so they weren’t walking a lot they mostly just stayed with in her dads property. But of course naturally they probably moved around more. But still when my mom came back and ate baked chicken that we cooked she had a red rash. So much of our food in the US is overtly processed and sadly most parts in Mexico as well now have access to overtly processed foods too. My mom is thinking of taking her 401k out early and moving back to Mexico because her health is only declining here in the states.
Yes! I'm American, but I lived as a digital nomad all over Europe for 3 years. I've returned to the states and my autoimmune issues are so intense. I'm sick most days and struggle to sleep. There's so much I can't eat here that I ate with no problems and no symptoms in Europe, especially in France. I'm considering moving permanently to France.
"i do not romanticize eating anymore" babyyyy you don't know how much this resonated with me. This has been a programming from childhood that as of recently I have insisted on breaking. I've talked about this particular topic with friends and yeah it has had an effect on my mental for yeeeeaaarrrss lol I'm so glad to hear it's not just me so thank you love for mentioning this! heart heart heart you Star! 23:00
I also really focused on healing my gut this year and it has made a HUGE difference. I add the wildbrine fermented cabbage to salads, add plain kefir to coffee instead of cream, and snack on bubbies pickles. Those are some of my favorite easy ways to get high probiotic foods in regularly.
@@jakiecrazy it’s really up to you and what works for your body! I do ok with a little dairy so it works for me but everyone is different so maybe start with a very small amount and see how it goes
Hailey you are speaking facts girl! I turned 40 this year and I am sick and tired of being sick and tired! I’ve been struggling with my weight since I was a teenager and I’m over it! You got it young girl kudos to you for that! It’s never too late thank you for inspiring me at my big age!
I like how you mentioned the focus with fasting. This is definitely a pro. You have so much mental clarity and focus in a fasted state, as well as the fact that you focus less on food all day when you know you’re only eating during a smaller window 👌
Everything you said about being skinny is how I feel. It’s my choice and I deserve to feel how I want to feel in my body. Thank you so much for this video. It was the push I needed.
I am so glad I ran across your video. I am on board with you. Being healthy is not a sin, being vain, or conceited. Don’t let anyone back you into a corner. You are a beautiful young lady. You inspired me to loose my weight I have been carrying for 251/2 years now.
I lost almost 40 lbs doing a natural cleanse/detox and I still have a few more lbs to go (correcting my gut health because I added back inflammatory foods that I now know is the cause to my stomach not getting smaller but the rest of body has changed drastically) I am 5'9 so everyone thinks I look super skinny but I am still not near my goal. The key has been to focus on what makes me feel good. I didn't like how I looked despite everyone saying I looked good. So this video defiantly hit home.
A great RUclips channel on gastrointestinal issues and hormonal issues is Dr Michael Ruscio. His advice is AMAZING. He explained how to diagnose and treat your issues quickly, without suffering for long and how to do it naturally. 🎉 My teenaged daughter only had to deal with gut issues for under 4 months. She is back to normal now.
I feel you on that! I’m 5’10” and although everyone says I’m so tall and slim I’m just about overweight for my height. When I talk about losing weight people are always like “wHeRe”. We know the weight we feel our best at so let’s get there ❤️
It’s honestly scary how relatable you are because I went vegan in 2018 because of watching What the Health. Your videos help me so much. Thank you for posting regularly, you motivate tf out of me.
This is so true! Between August 9 and today I have lost 54lb and I can say that I got a good job, people treat me differently and my level of confidence is way better than when I was overweight!!!!!!!!!! I refuse to be overweight again in this life 😮💨😢
I started my fitness journey and can tell that it hasn't been easy. I sometimes skip days and weeks but always come back. I am aware that I'm trying to educate myself and not punish. Loved your video!
I’m currently going though a marriage “separation” and I’ve took this as a sign to level up myself and my life. Your videos are literally helping me with this. I’m taking notes for sure. ❤️❤️❤️
I have never had someone to relate to so much. Super-sized Me freaked me out as kid. I went vegan after watching documentaries and Vegan RUclipsrs .I have IBS. Like, seriously. As soon as you started to tell us what to do, I started intermediate fasting and took up a FODMAP diet. I am so sick of feeling sick and bloated. I am ready for change!
I'm literally sitting here in tears. you will never truly understand how much I appreciate this video production. I can relate to A LOT of things you have spoken about, and I can't tell you how tired I am mentally and physically of making excuses for myself. I am 32 years old and on my way to building a successful business(es) but my mental and physical is the one thing that holds me back. I literally can not focus! everything you have said from being stressed out, moodiness, bad relationship with food ALL OF IT. saying all of this to thank you so much for sharing your transparency. I love your mindset; you may feel like you are looking up to these other figures when you are just as inspiring, if not more. Thank you so much and you have gained a new subscriber for life! I can't wait to update you on my journey! I'm also following you on Ig :)
I loved everything about this video. DEFINITELY have reverse body dysmorphia cause when I look in the mirror I think I look great. But when people take pictures of me I’m like “😳…omg I really look like this 😦?”I’ve been heavy all my adult life (24 yrs old) and I’m tired of “pretending” I’m happy with it. I love what you said about not being bullied into not caring about being thinner. Like I like the intention the *body positivity community* has with truly loving your body but I feel like society took it over board. Like it’s okay to be honest with your self… mf I’m overweight. And honestly, I could look better. That doesn’t mean “better” = “skinny”. Better means looking YOUR BEST self. Thank you so much from making this video. It’s inspired me to get my life together girl. Btw you look amazingggg 🩷
Your honesty is so top tier . I love how you can be so raw and blunt even about yourself but still manage be light hearted and funny about it. I feel like I can relate to you so much!! 💕
This!! Literal proof that the gut is the "second-brain" of the body. The gut microbiome balance is key to unlocking your full potential. Hailey, you SLAY! Love your content so so much :)
I think my diet and stressful job messed up my hormones and cause me pain around different times of the cycle. I am starting to eat healthy for my future body. I want to be strong and healthy! Thank you! You look amazing ❤
GIRL!!!! I have never seen someone speak so much truth about struggling with weight. I resinated with everything you said. We share 90% of the same symptoms. Good luck in your journey and keep up the good work!
THANK YOU for being REAL with us! I need to prioritize my health for longevity and have been apprehensive about my journey with food/binging, and it's hard to talk about this topic with "polite company", because "it's gross", but it's so necessary! Our body, our biome, is so scared, and I don't want to pollute my temple any more
i started my journey last year, and I've dropped around 22 pound so far, I have another 25 pound to go, I am so proud of this body and how far I've come. Appreciate you sharing your weightloss journey! Again it's a journey, not a sprint. :)
New here - it's refreshing to hear a young influencer speak on the importance of gut health and how to optimize on foods we eat. This is life changing and totally within our control. No need to overdose on vitamins and other expensive things that never resolve the underlying issues. THANK YOU for this valuable information and keep it coming please.
Hailey watching your videos every day is making a HUGE difference in my glow up era and I know 2024 is gonna be my year and I couldn't do it without you, love you! ❤
You might want to look into the book fast like a girl. Dr. Mindy explains how fasting is different for men and women and she explains very well how to implement fasting into your menstrual cycle. 💕
Gut health is the key to overall health. I have had my struggles with healing my gut as well. I suffer from diverticular disease as well. I needed this video. Thank you
Currently figuring this part of my weight loss journey out! I like you have lost 40-50 pounds and there is no stopping when it come to feeling good inside and out! Thank you Hailey
I’ve been doing IF on and off over the last few months and feel SO much better when I’m doing it. Giving my body a few hours before bedtime to digest food before sleeping has majorly impacted my quality of sleep. I have studied extended water fasts for years and tried a couple of them when I really wanted to heal my stomach or skin. Fasting is incredibly healing and it’s so amazing to see this talked about more openly on social media and not demonized. When used correctly, intentionally and for good reasons, fasting is remarkably healing. When I water fasted for 3 days (monitored & supplemented) my eyesight improved, focused improved, I swear even my hearing improved. The focus state your brain goes into is why religious people do it for prayer! It can truly be a spiritual experience on top of a health experience.
i literally have the same problem, i really feel like theres not much time left for me. If i dont get grip of this now, i wont any time soon. I have all the symptomes she is talking about. I see this video as a clear warning from God and a major motivation just to invent myself new. Thank you girly, this is my first video from you
You are LITERALLY helping me change my life and become the best version of myself. Thank you so much for your vids !!! I actually wanna cry watching this bc I’ve been dealing with bloating for so long and it’s definitely not normal, I’m tired of being overweight. I ended up getting this condition called psudotumor which is basically a false tumor in my brain & hypotension pressure / fluid build up in my brain bc I’m over weight !!! I got it last year & almost lost my vision. The fluid spreads through your optic nerves & you can actually go blind if left untreated. I had to be on a diaretic medication for a couple months which is essentially a pill that releases fluid from my brain when I pee. I got hospitalized and had to get an emergency spinal tap that was extremely painful ( it was to drain some of the fluid from my brain ). My doctors told me they were unsure of the cause. Healed up from it & got it again the same time a year later ( this year ). Saw a great neurooptomologist because I needed answers. He told me this is happening bc I’m overweight & I need to lose atleast 5% of my body weight or else I will experience this probably once a year for the rest of my life. Obv it doesn’t happen to everyone overweight , but it happened to me! Btw I’m not obese, I weigh 150 but I’m 5’2 so I’m trying to drop 30 pounds & go down to 120 since that’s the healthy weight for my height. I’m definitely going to follow all of these tips & the tips you left in your other weight loss video❤
Honestly, I feel like I'm the old you. Struggling with literally everything you mentioned, so good to know a change is possible and once again you motivate me to fight for myself, for a better version of me. You did an amazing job and you look stunning
Hey girlies I’m glad I came across this video today. I’m 10 weeks pregnant and let me tell ya I wish I would’ve healed my gut before pregnancy. It gets 10 times worse while pregnant. Taking on this journey now, better a little late then nevaaa.
@@lolatara7201not fasting but while pregnant you could stick to solid meal times and cut outnsnack times but still get your calories. Gives the stomach time to fo its thing
This whole thing, the way you got here, is a true testament to your intelligence. And commitment. Hell. Very impressive you figured all this out for yourself.
You saying your word for this year was resilience was so incredibly applicable to me; I’m a first year college student and I had to deal with rejection in multiple capacities this year, and that required a lot of strength. I’m adopting unstoppable as my word for 2024 because I’m done with the BS, no one and nothing is going to stop be from achieving all my goals in 2024. Thank you Hailey for giving all of us courage!!!
i have never in my life related to anyone more. i recently lost 30 pounds as well and have watched so many videos like this and haven’t related to any… the part about “weight looking sloppy” is so crazy because it is such truth in my life. congrats girl you look beautiful and safe to say i’ll be watching more of you ❤
This broke my heart 😢 I also have a body covered in stretch marks. One day I walked to the beach in a bathing suit I lived and had the most amazing day. My face was full of tears because I was finally free. It is truly a journey! I would recommend CO2 laser for highly visible areas in the meantime.
Aw I’m so sorry you feel this way. I understand. At times I feel I can’t do something because I don’t think I could handle looks, comments, or my own thoughts that people might be thinking. I pray and send good energy your way to dare to step out as you in your skin❤ I hope the same for everyone
Im so f**king happy i came across your video! I swear I’ve been in this downward spiral and i wanna cry! This gives me so much hope! Thank you for sharing your journey! Thank you thank you thank you!
❤I love it. This is very true, healing the gut helps your body to function. I suffer from Migraine headaches and my stomach is always affected. Since changing my diet and cutting down and out certain foods and not drinking alcohol has reduced my headaches and I feel great. Thank you so Hailey ❤
Healing my gut is my number one health priority for next year, so this video came at the perfect time! Thank you for sharing your secrets and you look amazing 😍🫶🏽
Honestly you are hands down one of my favorite RUclipsrs. Thank you for always being transparent and real about your journey. Because especially after having a child it’s such a struggle to get back into shape. This gives me hope again 💕💕💕
Im so drawn to the vulnerability and transparency. You touched on topics and went into depth on things that aren’t normally spoken about. This is a wonderful video. Thank you ❤
Loved your last video… new subscriber. Just turned 29 and am currently at my heaviest… wanting to get back to being THAT GIRL for my 30’s ✨💪 cheers to a new year and better habits!
Yesterdays video just confirmed so much that I’ve been struggling with for YEARS. I’ve been following you along your journey of life and have always resonated with me. You’re basically my big sister twin and I love how much you guided me on this journey! I’m ready for my new life 🤍
Currently in the hospital recovering from gallbladder removal. It’s been rough but this is definitely a turning point for me and my health. I will definitely be looking into those books you recommended !!
Happy Hailmas Hailey! As a 28 year old battling a Vitamin B12 deficiency and Alopecia Universalis since adolescence and had two blood transfusions... I cannot go without meat and was a raw vegan for a few months. That’s such a battle because people don’t understand my illness. I am so grateful that you are sharing this because I am ready to heal. I am going to do more research now that I am making more money and having less stress. I will be sharing my journey with you in the comments, look out for me! 🙏🏾
Thanks for sharing your experience love. I’m learning a lot from you. I’m 26 and I lost 60lbs now. Working on being healthy and loving myself more. Staying consistent is very important but don’t be hard on yourself if you slip…just turn around and do it again. Everyone has a journey and the biggest key to your journey is to not give on yourself. 😉
Listen man, this video is gold! Recently I’ve struggled with hormonal imbalance and I can testify that all that you’ve said hits the nail on the head. Eat those veggies and fruits and drink that WATER!
Loving this _unapologetically me_ version of Hailey even more. You may not be looking to get wifed just yet, but its all in this new energy you're exuding! Love it ❤ Happy Hailmas 🎉
By the end of that thought @28:08 Hailey I felt that!!! I've been a big girl my whole life so far, I'm going to treat my body right for the rest of it. And I can't care who feels uncomfortable or looks at me as high maintenance or bougie because of it. Keep going, this was validation that I'm on my track at the right time 😊. #HappyHailmas
I remember I got called 'bougie' by a girl in my class during a conversation because I didn't want to eat Burger King. The last time I did, the food disgusted me to an astronomical level. People will excessively talk bs on other people's choices but you keep doing you!
I’m on my weight loss journey and lost 100+ to date. Been a 3 year journey. You came across my feed and I just watched your video and I’m going to implement what you’re teaching us. It’s so refreshing to hear someone who looks like me share the same sentiments about our weight and that the Big Girl thing isn’t for us! I’m a tazo refresh mint tea girl! Thank you, Shalom and blessings to you for helping us. Merry Christmas!!🎉
I have all that just found out I have gallstones they are painful but with the Grace of God I will get through this finding natural pathway remedies instead I don’t want to remove my gallbladder. There’s many women that are going through the same I feel we need to spread awareness. Fasting is so powerful keep on sharing Hailey. A lot of women think of fasting is a bad. when we where told to eat 💭 breakfast, lunch,dinner we’ve been lied too. I was so sick for 5 years. And for 7 days I couldn’t keep nothing down it was horrible that I got so skinny but looked like I was sick pale. I would sleep so much it was horrible back pain. I was on the toilet 20 times a day I was depressed just like you. Couldn’t even work out. maybe I had what you had but not one doctor listen they just told me to lose weight they ignored my pain.

“I’m not going to be bullied into a corner to not care about being thinner. I’ve spent the majority of my adult life being heavy - I deserve to feel good in my skin for once. Fully.” FELT.
Because they just don’t get it 😂❤
Honey I felt it so hard definitely where I’m at right now 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yesss ❤❤
Period !
@@jalmon9478right!!! I fully relate with this
I did IF and cut out carbs. Rice, pasta, bread, chips, junk food period. No fast food, no Starbucks, no dunkin. Lost 30lbs in 2.5 months. I walked every day. I still have 10lbs more to go. I went from 8/10 to 4/6 size. I got my jawline back. I also fit into clothes from 20 years ago. I am trying to eat more protein and do more strength training especially bc of my age. Middle aged. I feel so good and look great in new clothes. My knee pain is gone! Have more energy. Loving life. If I can do it you can too. Bless your ur journey ❤❤❤❤
girl congrats! do u mind sharing on how to be consistent and stick to the diet?
I love how AUTHENTIC you're being. I can't stand when women pretend that they don't want to look better. And when you look better, you FEEL better!
So authentically raw. Love it! ❤ Your comment made me subscribe to you!
And when you feel better, you DO better in everything
Yeah the whole "I love myself the way I am" (even if I'm unhealthy, depressed and sometimes cry when I look at myself in the mirror) Don't anyone believe that shit. No one is content with themselves when they're obese. Hell, I see women that are solid 10's and they still aren't content with themselves so I really find it hard to believe that nonsense.
Not only that but it’s encourages to stay the way you are and simply cover it by and with “confidence” which really isn’t even confidence. It’s just aggression. Heal!
I agree but the way you’re thinking is that heaviness inherently make you not look good. You deserve to want to be skinny but let’s not be fatphobic
"$400-$500 dollars a week on food" is so EASY TO DO in a big American city, it blows my mind. I cut out coffee, alcohol and takeaway (and no delivery fees or Ubers to get food) and I am rollin' in the dough like Scrooge McDuck. You said it, girl, "Sheesh!" Homecooked meals and being super cute at the farmers markets are my rewards.
"super cute at farmer's market" 😂 yes that should be our vibes!
😆I love this. Being super cute @ the Farmer’s Market- goals!!
I been thinking about giving up coffee but I make it at home

When I realized that intermittent fasting was just eating three times a day and portion control, that made me realize that American food culture is different/toxic. It trains you to FEEL your body and eat when you're actually hungry and stop when you're full. Before that, I would snack all day and probably only eat 1 BIG meal a day and give into cravings. After about a week of doing it, it just became super easy cause my body had adjusted
Facts and once i was in the gym almost 2 months I noticed good results in feeling great and body sculpture targeting my areas
1 big meal a day is still intermittent fasting, you just have to learn your body, what to eat and how much.
@@ashleyburks4639 No, because her point was that she was eating one big meal but snacking all day. Snacking all day is not intermittent fasting. Now she has three meals but no snacking she’s spending fewer hours eating.
This has been a wakeup call for me. I am not just overweight, I'm straight up unhealthy. "I was carrying weight in weird places." That is where I am at; bloated, sweating frequently, and my chin invited her bestie. You have inspired me to take care of myself and stop mistreating my body! 💚 You look bella bambina!
LOOOOOL not her bestie, im mid size and still have a chin. Im gonna lose even more weight 😂❤
😂😂
Me as well ❤ 😢 it’s depressing but thank god we have people like her we will get through this ❤❤💪🏽
Chin invited her bestie!! 😅😅😅
Girl. My chin invited her bestie.
I am starting my health journey in my 33 years of age. This video motivated me. Please whenever you see my comment like it so that i keep revisiting her video for motivation. I am already doing a 30 days challenge will come back and post how it goes.❤❤❤
How is/did the 30 days challenge going/go?
Any update??
👀👀
Im turning 33 in August im right there with you!!! So ready!🎉
@manalie update mama, let's go, c'mon, either you're starting over or it's going strong
The saying should really be “GUT health is wealth” because gut health is such a slept on secret to productivity! Congrats on healing your body!
🎯
The romanticizing eating part is SPOT ON! Our programming and culture is heavy on that. And it is seriously a mind contamination. This was very informative and thorough. Applause 👏🏽
"people think that you are more disciplined, healthier and better when you're thinner" that's just the truth.
As someone who's come out of the "I don't care how I look" mentality into the "I want to look good because if I look good, I will feel good, I know it" this can't be more true.
Thank you for being so honest. I've always wished I was thinner. I'm not getting any of the results I want but I will keep on trying. This video offered me some fresh perspective and a little nudge to keep trying and not give up. Thank you, Hailey.
Being thin has nothing to do with discipline. I know thin ppl that eat like trash. Being thin doesn’t mean that person is healthy. Sometimes it’s just genetics as well
Heavy on the not going another year disliking something that you can change! I've felt bad about wanting to be skinny because my body positivity girlies would say, "it's not about how you look" or "wanting to be skinny is a toxic goal". I'm not going another year pretending I don't care. I can't wait to give myself the body and external confidence I deserve.
I’m with you on this one. We got this, it’s going to be out year we deserve the body we dream of!!❤
@@vanessadejesus1603Yes! We can do it, and we will! ❤
❗️
So well said! 👏🏽
I work in the natural food industry and have always had all the supplements, detoxes and probiotics at my disposal. Nothing worked chile, UNTIL I STARTED GETTIN IN MY GALLON OF WATER DAILY. If you still find yourself struggling after dietary and exercise changes, that's usually the last missing piece ❤
Yesss! And sleep/drinking alcohol frequently too
Sleep tooo. Yep yep
I just love you so much ❤ I am so happy for you and the greens in the video that are wearing and this video and the last one are giving 😊 veggies are the best and currently eating Seoul kimchi ! You look amazing. 💕
I started my diet today.
the gallon a day is no joke!! 👏
Healthy eating, healing my gut, routine exercising, self love are my goals for 2024✨ thank you Hailey for giving me the encouragement & push that I needed to continue this journey!
I literally said this yesterday
Those are great goals, good luck Love❤
Start now
When you change your gut, the manifestations are off the charts! I’m living it now 👁️♒️
girl i have never, ever, ever in my life watched a yt video about health and didn't wander off then close my laptop after 3 minutes in until i saw this. i love the way you put your thoughts into words. thank you so much for making this video! all love
Same 😊
“Don’t wish ill on my life I am divinely blessed” PERIOD 👏🏽
Loved the heck out of this. Felt her. No bad minds over here.
Okayyyy 💁🏾
I had the biggest cry today. I’ve struggled with my weight all my life. I was at the best shape a few years ago and then gained so much due to stress and depression. I’m at a point when I am tired of feeling so awful in my body. I deserve to feel beautiful. 💖
Same sister…*hugs*
I feel you… 🫂
awww , trust me bb you have to first let go of that hurt and you have to love yourself and eat healthy , after that you can start working out , trust me this works
Awww I totally feel this. I feel the same way. We can do this.
Me too, I just got into the gym today and CHILE.
I really like how this video isn’t just “losing weight” with workouts and meals but actually targets the deeper issue- gut health.
This is the REALEST weight-loss video I’ve ever seen. You are so direct, dont sugar coat things and gave me the tough love i needed. Thank you so much for not making us feel like you are trying to sell us something or persuade us to buy into a certain dream - you were just transparent and inspired me through your raw emotions and sense of relief and lightness you are showing. Thank you for this.
I absolutely LOVE this video! As a registered dietitian and woman of color, it's very disheartening to see so many of us being complacent about being overweight. Even if your genetics are "stacked against you" there is something you can do about it. The body positivity movement has caused so many of us to stay in bodies that we don't truly love. Your quality of life is more important than the aesthetic of losing weight, but once you lose you'll never want to go back. Most of the time, we need to address how to process our emotions without using food. That's when you can really keep the weight off (if you're an emotional eater). Thank you for your raw honesty in this video and hopefully many will take action to create a healthier lifestyle from watching.
Facts!!!!! Women act like it’s ok to be big it’s not!! I just had my baby and I’m dieting asap!
Lol body negativity is worse than body positivity. Nothing wrong with being positive about your body and it’s natural size or women with muscular bodies. That being said if you are truly positive about your body you will treat it right. When people are negative about their bodies they stress eat, do plastic surgery, starve themselves and mess their body up even more.
I ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ this.
Especially in the Blk community. I’m slim, and it’s encouraged to gain weight there for some reason. Like if I don’t have a fluffy body, no one will want me. I get skinny shamed a lot. Also by the men.
So I removed myself and was around people that didn’t do that. They just happen to be of other races. Including the men. WM. Love my shape. It’s crazy.
@@LilithTheAquarian369 So true. The BC will shame skinny or slim bodies as unattractive or having little boyish bodies. I was thinking about this from another video. Having that thick or "baddie" body type attracts a certain type of men. Slim build women are usually seen with a certain class of men too.
Probs to you girl for saying out loud that being overweight doesn't FEEL good. It is not only heavy on your body literally, but also heavy on your mind! Saying this out loud in this "body-positivity" world could be seen as rebellious (as your are girl ;) )! I feel the same way and feel inspired to 1. decide on my word for 2024 and 2. to speak truthfully with myself (I deserve to actually become HER - the best version of me I can imagine). Thank you so much for your daily insipration so far!
Omg yes ! First off when you’ve been fat you can say you hate being fat I don’t make the rules 😂 also I’m too old to care if it’s rebellious I’m just being real according to my life ❤ thanks for the comment
I used to have severe menstrual cramps that sometimes got me admitted in the hospital. My mum advised me to try changing my diet and cleansing my system. Can you believe that in the past four to five months, I have not experienced any excruciating pain. Just a dull ache now. Couldn't be more grateful 🙏😁
Ooo what did you cut out?
What do you eat now?
Ff
I had the same experience. Ny cramps used to send me to the hospital but now I am able to deal with it waaaay more than before!
Can you share what you did to have your period almost pain free
As a girl with pcos it’s so hard so lose weight & love myself with all this weight gain after having a baby , but glad I stumbled across you video 💗
My word for 2024 is Elevation. Turning 30 this year unlocked an entirely new perspective/mindset of learning to love and be myself unapologetically. I used to think of course I love myself but really I loved what other people loved about me. Learning to step into my authenticity has been a game changer and now I too refuse to go into another year disliking something about myself that I can change. Thank you for being you and inspiring others, like myself, to do the same. Love you Hails
How come we are in the same place, i honestly want to be your friend for this
Same. My bday is in a week. Turning 38 and my mind is on boosting my wellness on all levels: mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually
@@banlabenadine6314 Girl yes! I have open enrollment for new friends lol. Where do you live? What’s your IG?
I turned 30 in October and I feel the same. I’ve decided to take voice lessons which is something I always wanted to do, and I’m now taking steps to get out of a career I feel stuck in. My next step is to work on my physical health too because it affects my mental so much.
@@bethanyrose9026 i love your courage. I pray don't fall apart again
I’m reading “Fast like a Girl” atm and it’s been a game changer. Goes in depth on everything you’ve mentioned Hailey. Keep up the good work.
Same! I also love Glucose Queen! Her "hacks" have helped me so much x
I’m reading it too
I just got this book a couple months ago and still haven’t read it. I’m scared to fast and feel terrible.
@@itsNaturallyCrystalnothing to be afraid of. Read it, you won’t regret it
@@itsNaturallyCrystaldon't get scared. You can ease into it like anything else. Eventually you will not even feel hungry. I even workout in a fasted state & feel great. I lost 45 pounds in the last year & intermittent fasting was the missing key other than dietary changes.
Healing the gut is truly life changing, anything external is a bandage until the insides are in check!
The brain gut connection is real, thank you for sharing your experience with healing your gut!
in test in = in the head, test means head.
“I am divinely blessed and protected by God” yes sis! Thank you for being honest. It’s so discouraging to have to kill yourself in the gym just to not gain weight. I was my lowest when I fasted and I’m gonna reclaim my fasting thanks to these videos.
27:51 Boom! That hit home with me sister! “To have the life that you dreamed of but not the body that you’ve dreamed of”
Yes! Your story sounds so similar to mine. Especially the part about having all this knowledge and not utilizing it. I started eating one ingredient foods. Fruits, veggies, lean meats, fish, lots of water, fasting and walking 4-5 miles a day, it literally was a game changer. in two months everyone noticed not only the difference in the way I looked but my attitude and energy changed substantially as well. Same happened to me my period regulated. At the beginning I also broke out like crazy on my jaw line, neck and back and now it’s so clear. I lost 35 lbs in two months. Congratulations on you feeling good and looking FANTASTIC!
I could’ve wrote this myself! 35lb this year , and mentally it’s a different experience being lean! Everyone wants your advice on life all the sudden because thinness symbolizes discipline ❤️
As someone with IBS and GERD, I can relate to having to drastically change your eating habits and noticing the difference it has on your mental clarity!
what has helped you having GERD? what has worked for you to remove from your diet? so far I've only eliminated spicy foods and that has helped as well as a lot of tomatoes sauces
@@gracelyons5579 I follow the low foodmap!
@@gracelyons5579sugar and gluten helped me but with gerd not eating after 3pm is helping with my sleep. Otherwise ill be in pain all night 😪
gerd?
Can you share what helped your GERD?
Healing my gut is my goal this 2024. I’ve gained so much weight and stopped working out because of school and work. Your tips are something I plan to incorporate to get back in track ❤
I love a real raw talker . She just so real I love that
I gained a lot of weight during quarantine and I’ve had a terrible body image. I’ve had body dysmorphia even since I was younger, when I was thin. I always saw myself as “big”. Last year was the year that I genuinely learned to accept my body for what it was and to enjoy it. The thing is, I wasn’t being healthy about it. Now that I’m more observant about everything that’s going on with me, I want to be healthier. I’ve decided to actually start my weight loss journey the right way, I’m feeling really good about this!!
I started fasting on 11/26/2023 and I weighed in at 140lbs. It’s now 12/10/2023 and I’m at 131lbs! I’ve struggled for so long with my weight; long fasts combined with healthier foods / smaller portions seems to work best for me. What triggered it all was a breakup and a book, “Fast Like a Girl” by Dr Mindy Pelz. I would highly recommend it. Loved your video Hail ❤
Dr Pelz is the truth
Please where can I find it
Girlllll!! I am reading the same book now!!! ❤️❤️
Yes girl! It works so fast! I lost 20 lbs in like 7 weeks! I highly recommend fasting and it’s great for your body and regulating your blood sugar! Great for brain health too!
Wow this is amazing 🎉. Did you ever feel faint and if so did it go away?
I started seeing a holistic functional doctor because I have consistently struggled with weight all my life and it turns out my gut was all out of whack, even outside of the weight loss, things always felt off. Gut health is really core to overall health
The most 🔥part of this video is when you said your word for 2024 is UNSTOPPABLE. I felt that. I literally yelled at the screen “you go babygirl”. I lost 25 pounds recently and everything you said is 100% facts. You got this. Keep going.
I appreciate this video. I’m not overweight, but I do have gut issues and hormonal problems. I’m currently overseas and a lot of my hormonal symptoms vanished….which has made me scared to return to the states (because my diet didn’t change that much) I can only assume it is the pesticides and GMOS allowed in America. A lot of ingredients used in the states are illegal elsewhere….anyways. I made notes from your video for when I return. I do appreciate the time you took to make this video. I’ll implement some new things to work on my gut health. I’ve had acid reflux for 10 years and I’m only 24….again. Thanks.
Yes!! I deployed twice in the army and both times I ate the same or more and lost weight and felt good. Then I came back to the States and everything reversed
My mom has high cholesterol so much that she can’t even eat chicken without getting a red rash all over her hands. When she went to Mexico to go see her family and only stayed within her small town. She at first was not eating any meat. But she gave in when her mom made her famous pozole with a chicken that was from her dads farm. She had no red rash after eating it. The next day she ate even ate her moms spicy meatballs, no red rash. After that she was eating pork rinds, carnitas, barbacoa, even sweets, and of course eating veggies and fruits, beans, and tortillas. She didn’t get any bad symptoms at all though out those next 2 weeks. She in fact lost 10 pounds, as well as my little brother. They weren’t sight seeing so they weren’t walking a lot they mostly just stayed with in her dads property. But of course naturally they probably moved around more. But still when my mom came back and ate baked chicken that we cooked she had a red rash. So much of our food in the US is overtly processed and sadly most parts in Mexico as well now have access to overtly processed foods too. My mom is thinking of taking her 401k out early and moving back to Mexico because her health is only declining here in the states.
Yes! I'm American, but I lived as a digital nomad all over Europe for 3 years. I've returned to the states and my autoimmune issues are so intense. I'm sick most days and struggle to sleep. There's so much I can't eat here that I ate with no problems and no symptoms in Europe, especially in France. I'm considering moving permanently to France.
@@todrapayne ah man… now I’m really nervous about returning to the states 🥲 I hope you’re able to make the move and enjoy your days better!
@@justapseudonym7 ah man…
"i do not romanticize eating anymore" babyyyy you don't know how much this resonated with me. This has been a programming from childhood that as of recently I have insisted on breaking. I've talked about this particular topic with friends and yeah it has had an effect on my mental for yeeeeaaarrrss lol I'm so glad to hear it's not just me so thank you love for mentioning this! heart heart heart you Star! 23:00
Side note, why when I looked at the clock chile it said 5:55 even the angel numbers are in agreement lol
I also really focused on healing my gut this year and it has made a HUGE difference. I add the wildbrine fermented cabbage to salads, add plain kefir to coffee instead of cream, and snack on bubbies pickles. Those are some of my favorite easy ways to get high probiotic foods in regularly.
Thank you for this tips! Question, would adding the Kefir be doable if I'm cutting back on dairy but not completely cutting dairy out ? ❤
@@jakiecrazy it’s really up to you and what works for your body! I do ok with a little dairy so it works for me but everyone is different so maybe start with a very small amount and see how it goes
I didn't think of Kefir and coffee together! What a great idea. Do you drink hot or iced? 😊

Hailey you are speaking facts girl! I turned 40 this year and I am sick and tired of being sick and tired! I’ve been struggling with my weight since I was a teenager and I’m over it! You got it young girl kudos to you for that! It’s never too late thank you for inspiring me at my big age!
Fellow 1983 gem over here! 🙋🏽♀️U are not alone
@@JessicaS620 we are in this together 💕
I like how you mentioned the focus with fasting. This is definitely a pro. You have so much mental clarity and focus in a fasted state, as well as the fact that you focus less on food all day when you know you’re only eating during a smaller window 👌
Everything you said about being skinny is how I feel. It’s my choice and I deserve to feel how I want to feel in my body. Thank you so much for this video. It was the push I needed.
I am so glad I ran across your video. I am on board with you. Being healthy is not a sin, being vain, or conceited. Don’t let anyone back you into a corner. You are a beautiful young lady. You inspired me to loose my weight I have been carrying for 251/2 years now.
I lost almost 40 lbs doing a natural cleanse/detox and I still have a few more lbs to go (correcting my gut health because I added back inflammatory foods that I now know is the cause to my stomach not getting smaller but the rest of body has changed drastically) I am 5'9 so everyone thinks I look super skinny but I am still not near my goal. The key has been to focus on what makes me feel good. I didn't like how I looked despite everyone saying I looked good. So this video defiantly hit home.
A great RUclips channel on gastrointestinal issues and hormonal issues is Dr Michael Ruscio. His advice is AMAZING. He explained how to diagnose and treat your issues quickly, without suffering for long and how to do it naturally. 🎉 My teenaged daughter only had to deal with gut issues for under 4 months. She is back to normal now.
I feel you on that! I’m 5’10” and although everyone says I’m so tall and slim I’m just about overweight for my height. When I talk about losing weight people are always like “wHeRe”. We know the weight we feel our best at so let’s get there ❤️
Can you please share your detox?
What type of Detox did you do?
@@TheTattooedSoul24Can you share the detox, please?
It’s honestly scary how relatable you are because I went vegan in 2018 because of watching What the Health. Your videos help me so much. Thank you for posting regularly, you motivate tf out of me.
I got diagnosed with IBS earlier this year. It’s so refreshing to hear from someone who has dealt with it as well. 💕
This is so true! Between August 9 and today I have lost 54lb and I can say that I got a good job, people treat me differently and my level of confidence is way better than when I was overweight!!!!!!!!!! I refuse to be overweight again in this life 😮💨😢
You are so real for this girl 😭 like ive been a “thick woman” for so long and i just wanna feel good.
I started my fitness journey and can tell that it hasn't been easy. I sometimes skip days and weeks but always come back. I am aware that I'm trying to educate myself and not punish. Loved your video!
I’m currently going though a marriage “separation” and I’ve took this as a sign to level up myself and my life. Your videos are literally helping me with this. I’m taking notes for sure. ❤️❤️❤️
Praying for your marriage! Glad you guys agreed to a separation and yes, it is possible to get back together and be stronger ❤
I have never had someone to relate to so much. Super-sized Me freaked me out as kid. I went vegan after watching documentaries and Vegan RUclipsrs .I have IBS. Like, seriously. As soon as you started to tell us what to do, I started intermediate fasting and took up a FODMAP diet. I am so sick of feeling sick and bloated. I am ready for change!
I'm literally sitting here in tears. you will never truly understand how much I appreciate this video production. I can relate to A LOT of things you have spoken about, and I can't tell you how tired I am mentally and physically of making excuses for myself. I am 32 years old and on my way to building a successful business(es) but my mental and physical is the one thing that holds me back. I literally can not focus! everything you have said from being stressed out, moodiness, bad relationship with food ALL OF IT. saying all of this to thank you so much for sharing your transparency. I love your mindset; you may feel like you are looking up to these other figures when you are just as inspiring, if not more. Thank you so much and you have gained a new subscriber for life! I can't wait to update you on my journey! I'm also following you on Ig :)
I loved everything about this video. DEFINITELY have reverse body dysmorphia cause when I look in the mirror I think I look great. But when people take pictures of me I’m like “😳…omg I really look like this 😦?”I’ve been heavy all my adult life (24 yrs old) and I’m tired of “pretending” I’m happy with it. I love what you said about not being bullied into not caring about being thinner. Like I like the intention the *body positivity community* has with truly loving your body but I feel like society took it over board. Like it’s okay to be honest with your self… mf I’m overweight. And honestly, I could look better. That doesn’t mean “better” = “skinny”. Better means looking YOUR BEST self. Thank you so much from making this video. It’s inspired me to get my life together girl. Btw you look amazingggg 🩷
Your honesty is so top tier . I love how you can be so raw and blunt even about yourself but still manage be light hearted and funny about it. I feel like I can relate to you so much!! 💕
This!! Literal proof that the gut is the "second-brain" of the body. The gut microbiome balance is key to unlocking your full potential. Hailey, you SLAY! Love your content so so much :)
I think my diet and stressful job messed up my hormones and cause me pain around different times of the cycle. I am starting to eat healthy for my future body. I want to be strong and healthy!
Thank you! You look amazing ❤
GIRL!!!! I have never seen someone speak so much truth about struggling with weight. I resinated with everything you said. We share 90% of the same symptoms. Good luck in your journey and keep up the good work!
THANK YOU for being REAL with us! I need to prioritize my health for longevity and have been apprehensive about my journey with food/binging, and it's hard to talk about this topic with "polite company", because "it's gross", but it's so necessary! Our body, our biome, is so scared, and I don't want to pollute my temple any more
i started my journey last year, and I've dropped around 22 pound so far, I have another 25 pound to go, I am so proud of this body and how far I've come. Appreciate you sharing your weightloss journey! Again it's a journey, not a sprint. :)
New here - it's refreshing to hear a young influencer speak on the importance of gut health and how to optimize on foods we eat. This is life changing and totally within our control. No need to overdose on vitamins and other expensive things that never resolve the underlying issues. THANK YOU for this valuable information and keep it coming please.
Hailey watching your videos every day is making a HUGE difference in my glow up era and I know 2024 is gonna be my year and I couldn't do it without you, love you! ❤
You might want to look into the book fast like a girl. Dr. Mindy explains how fasting is different for men and women and she explains very well how to implement fasting into your menstrual cycle. 💕
So true!!
I started implementing this book at the start of 2024 and it’s been awesome for me!! I have PCOS so it can be tough to lose weight
@@Sarah-od8coWhat is PCOS??
Gut health is the key to overall health. I have had my struggles with healing my gut as well. I suffer from diverticular disease as well. I needed this video. Thank you
Currently figuring this part of my weight loss journey out! I like you have lost 40-50 pounds and there is no stopping when it come to feeling good inside and out! Thank you Hailey
I’ve been doing IF on and off over the last few months and feel SO much better when I’m doing it. Giving my body a few hours before bedtime to digest food before sleeping has majorly impacted my quality of sleep.
I have studied extended water fasts for years and tried a couple of them when I really wanted to heal my stomach or skin. Fasting is incredibly healing and it’s so amazing to see this talked about more openly on social media and not demonized. When used correctly, intentionally and for good reasons, fasting is remarkably healing. When I water fasted for 3 days (monitored & supplemented) my eyesight improved, focused improved, I swear even my hearing improved. The focus state your brain goes into is why religious people do it for prayer! It can truly be a spiritual experience on top of a health experience.
I’ve been stricter with fasting and I notice I’m not as tired throughout the day and have better mind clarity. Thank you Hailey❤
i literally have the same problem, i really feel like theres not much time left for me. If i dont get grip of this now, i wont any time soon. I have all the symptomes she is talking about. I see this video as a clear warning from God and a major motivation just to invent myself new. Thank you girly, this is my first video from you
You are LITERALLY helping me change my life and become the best version of myself. Thank you so much for your vids !!! I actually wanna cry watching this bc I’ve been dealing with bloating for so long and it’s definitely not normal, I’m tired of being overweight. I ended up getting this condition called psudotumor which is basically a false tumor in my brain & hypotension pressure / fluid build up in my brain bc I’m over weight !!! I got it last year & almost lost my vision. The fluid spreads through your optic nerves & you can actually go blind if left untreated. I had to be on a diaretic medication for a couple months which is essentially a pill that releases fluid from my brain when I pee. I got hospitalized and had to get an emergency spinal tap that was extremely painful ( it was to drain some of the fluid from my brain ). My doctors told me they were unsure of the cause. Healed up from it & got it again the same time a year later ( this year ). Saw a great neurooptomologist because I needed answers. He told me this is happening bc I’m overweight & I need to lose atleast 5% of my body weight or else I will experience this probably once a year for the rest of my life. Obv it doesn’t happen to everyone overweight , but it happened to me! Btw I’m not obese, I weigh 150 but I’m 5’2 so I’m trying to drop 30 pounds & go down to 120 since that’s the healthy weight for my height.
I’m definitely going to follow all of these tips & the tips you left in your other weight loss video❤
Honestly, I feel like I'm the old you. Struggling with literally everything you mentioned, so good to know a change is possible and once again you motivate me to fight for myself, for a better version of me. You did an amazing job and you look stunning
Hey girlies I’m glad I came across this video today. I’m 10 weeks pregnant and let me tell ya I wish I would’ve healed my gut before pregnancy. It gets 10 times worse while pregnant. Taking on this journey now, better a little late then nevaaa.
nevaaa say nevaaa
Please be careful. I don’t think fasting is recommended during pregnancy.
You can’t detox now but you can eat clean and include probiotics.
@@lolatara7201not fasting but while pregnant you could stick to solid meal times and cut outnsnack times but still get your calories. Gives the stomach time to fo its thing
Learn yourself, learn your body, learn everything about yourself. One of the best things I’ve learned from Hailey
This whole thing, the way you got here, is a true testament to your intelligence. And commitment. Hell. Very impressive you figured all this out for yourself.
loving this emphasis on *health* not just weight loss!!
What a coincidence that I came across this video while I am starting my gut health and overall body health journey❤️
You saying your word for this year was resilience was so incredibly applicable to me; I’m a first year college student and I had to deal with rejection in multiple capacities this year, and that required a lot of strength. I’m adopting unstoppable as my word for 2024 because I’m done with the BS, no one and nothing is going to stop be from achieving all my goals in 2024. Thank you Hailey for giving all of us courage!!!
i have never in my life related to anyone more. i recently lost 30 pounds as well and have watched so many videos like this and haven’t related to any… the part about “weight looking sloppy” is so crazy because it is such truth in my life. congrats girl you look beautiful and safe to say i’ll be watching more of you ❤
As a woman who has been riddled with stretch marks since middle school and can NEVER show ANY piece of my body, I'm happy for you 😢❤
This broke my heart 😢 I also have a body covered in stretch marks. One day I walked to the beach in a bathing suit I lived and had the most amazing day. My face was full of tears because I was finally free. It is truly a journey! I would recommend CO2 laser for highly visible areas in the meantime.
Aw I’m so sorry you feel this way. I understand. At times I feel I can’t do something because I don’t think I could handle looks, comments, or my own thoughts that people might be thinking. I pray and send good energy your way to dare to step out as you in your skin❤ I hope the same for everyone
Girl show those tiger stripes & live your life
Release the tiger stripes ladies 🤎
Exfoliate and shea butter
Im so f**king happy i came across your video! I swear I’ve been in this downward spiral and i wanna cry! This gives me so much hope! Thank you for sharing your journey! Thank you thank you thank you!
❤I love it. This is very true, healing the gut helps your body to function. I suffer from Migraine headaches and my stomach is always affected. Since changing my diet and cutting down and out certain foods and not drinking alcohol has reduced my headaches and I feel great. Thank you so Hailey ❤
Healing my gut is my number one health priority for next year, so this video came at the perfect time! Thank you for sharing your secrets and you look amazing 😍🫶🏽
Honestly you are hands down one of my favorite RUclipsrs. Thank you for always being transparent and real about your journey. Because especially after having a child it’s such a struggle to get back into shape. This gives me hope again 💕💕💕
Means a lot to me thank you ❤❤ have hope babe !
Im so drawn to the vulnerability and transparency. You touched on topics and went into depth on things that aren’t normally spoken about. This is a wonderful video. Thank you ❤
Loved your last video… new subscriber. Just turned 29 and am currently at my heaviest… wanting to get back to being THAT GIRL for my 30’s ✨💪 cheers to a new year and better habits!
You are so inspirational even to me as an almost 50 year old 7/17 #fellow♋. The ADD, Gut Healing, and Bossing up ❤
Also 7/117
Yesterdays video just confirmed so much that I’ve been struggling with for YEARS. I’ve been following you along your journey of life and have always resonated with me. You’re basically my big sister twin and I love how much you guided me on this journey! I’m ready for my new life 🤍
Currently in the hospital recovering from gallbladder removal. It’s been rough but this is definitely a turning point for me and my health. I will definitely be looking into those books you recommended !!
I needed this video so bad 🥺 acne and bloating has been causing self esteem for past few years
This was the big sister chat that I needed! Thank you for your time and authenticity 🙏🏽
I’m so happy you’re sharing what you’ve been doing because I’ve been DYING to know the secrets to your glow lately! 💛🥳 LOVING Hailmas!
Losing weight isn't an easy journey but the consistency and hardwork pays off at last❤
Happy Hailmas Hailey! As a 28 year old battling a Vitamin B12 deficiency and Alopecia Universalis since adolescence and had two blood transfusions... I cannot go without meat and was a raw vegan for a few months. That’s such a battle because people don’t understand my illness.
I am so grateful that you are sharing this because I am ready to heal. I am going to do more research now that I am making more money and having less stress. I will be sharing my journey with you in the comments, look out for me! 🙏🏾
❤
Thanks for sharing your experience love. I’m learning a lot from you. I’m 26 and I lost 60lbs now. Working on being healthy and loving myself more. Staying consistent is very important but don’t be hard on yourself if you slip…just turn around and do it again. Everyone has a journey and the biggest key to your journey is to not give on yourself. 😉
Listen man, this video is gold!
Recently I’ve struggled with hormonal imbalance and I can testify that all that you’ve said hits the nail on the head. Eat those veggies and fruits and drink that WATER!
Loving this _unapologetically me_ version of Hailey even more. You may not be looking to get wifed just yet, but its all in this new energy you're exuding! Love it ❤
Happy Hailmas 🎉
This energy is so contagioussss yesss something so beautiful about a woman stepping into her destiny that empowers everyone around her !!!!
By the end of that thought @28:08 Hailey I felt that!!! I've been a big girl my whole life so far, I'm going to treat my body right for the rest of it. And I can't care who feels uncomfortable or looks at me as high maintenance or bougie because of it. Keep going, this was validation that I'm on my track at the right time 😊. #HappyHailmas
I remember I got called 'bougie' by a girl in my class during a conversation because I didn't want to eat Burger King. The last time I did, the food disgusted me to an astronomical level. People will excessively talk bs on other people's choices but you keep doing you!
I’m on my weight loss journey and lost 100+ to date. Been a 3 year journey. You came across my feed and I just watched your video and I’m going to implement what you’re teaching us. It’s so refreshing to hear someone who looks like me share the same sentiments about our weight and that the Big Girl thing isn’t for us! I’m a tazo refresh mint tea girl! Thank you, Shalom and blessings to you for helping us. Merry Christmas!!🎉
I like how straightforward you are. I can't believe youtube is just now recommending you to me.
I have all that just found out I have gallstones they are painful but with the Grace of God I will get through this finding natural pathway remedies instead I don’t want to remove my gallbladder. There’s many women that are going through the same I feel we need to spread awareness. Fasting is so powerful keep on sharing Hailey. A lot of women think of fasting is a bad. when we where told to eat 💭 breakfast, lunch,dinner we’ve been lied too. I was so sick for 5 years. And for 7 days I couldn’t keep nothing down it was horrible that I got so skinny but looked like I was sick pale. I would sleep so much it was horrible back pain. I was on the toilet 20 times a day I was depressed just like you. Couldn’t even work out. maybe I had what you had but not one doctor listen they just told me to lose weight they ignored my pain.
