Hi sweet Jen, My name is Rose. I'm 39 and live in Maine. I dont think I've ever left a comment before- however i listen/watch your videos often. I have always longed for a sister.. or even a close female friendship that is not based on the things that most friendships are based on. Long story short, i see you as the friend I've always hoped for. Thank you for always being just a few clicks away when i am lonely. A few facts about me: -I dont have kids -I've been with my boyfriend for 19 years -I love photography (since childhood) taking photos using film only -I adore my parents -I love to study herbs and plants -I started doing yoga because of you -I am very spiritual. I love Lord, he literally saved me and transformed my life. 💛
Hi Jennifer ❤! Thank you for sharing!!! My 11 year old daughter has been diagnosed with anorexia nervosa and it’s hell on earth also for me as her mother. She is attending the swedish royal ballet school and the children are watching themselves in the mirror all day long while practising ballet. We got help very quickly because she’s so young and because I was very insistant. She is in therapy now and also her teachers are very encouraging and helpful. Apparently eating disorders are quite common in the ballet world. I’m glad I reacted quickly and she is doing better . I know it’s a day to day thing ( I’ve had it myself when I was younger but I never got any help), it’s an ongoing journey. Thank you again for always being so transparent and a real inspiration!! You are a true gem in this world. ❤ Lots of love ❤️
Jen, I am a 43 year old guy and have struggled with a great number of challenges before being diagnosed with ASD and it was not apparent but I developed many of these extremes. I am thankful to have found your channel through the journey as it's such credible and honest information. I look forward to your videos and your content! Please keep up all this amazing work :)
What always stood out to me about you is your slow way of talking and a low level of energy that comes across. This over time happens who people who restrict carbohydrate foods like potatos, sweet potatos, bananas, rice, mangos etc. and who eat a higher fat diet, like you. Omega3's are great, however if you'd eat a diet low in Omega6 the body wouldn't require so many Omega3 sources. The healthy carbs are low in Omega6. If they are the center of the diet, energy levels in people increase. You are still restricting by eating lower carb. Some switch from Anorexia to Orthorexia and never fully heal.
I think you have some good points about the carb limiting but a lot of autistic people talk differently, the speed at which you talk doesn't always represent energy levels (for example i like choosing my words carefully)
Every time i watch your videos i relate to you more but as someone who got actual brain damage from my eating disorder (i was told i had 70% of the grey matter i should because my brain had begun to consume itself, and i was having enormous week-long blackout periods) I'm like... just stunned at how much you seem to tap into things that are important in my life. Thanks for sharing your experience. Its amazing to think that when i am your age i could have the kind of healing and balance youve achieved.
Hello Jennifer, I'm your big fan from Greece, so excuse my not very good English. I'm obsessed with your videos and with your lovely personality. You look amazing. When it comes to food and the way of eating, I've learnt a lot by following Dr. Berg videos and tips about health in general. It's been almost a year since I do OMAD intermittent fasting and so far I feel very good. I'm not very extreme to choose only very healthy food, because sometimes I believe that if I want to eat milk chocolate that I really love but I know it's not healthy, a few times a month will not kill me if I treat myself with something unhealthy. And when I do that, it will be my last thing that I consume that day with OMAD diet. Which my stomach is already full and according to Jessie Insospee (which I've enjoyed her book about glucose) will not spike my glucose level as if I would eat that same chocolate bar as a first thing or as a snack.
Jennifer, your videos are a wealth of knowledge. I also struggled with anorexia in my teenage years and turned to my background in healthcare to help me heal. You are amazing.
You are a great example for many of us. Muchas gracias desde España. Es un placer encontrar a alguien que comparte muchos de mis gustos, de mis ideas, tanto de alimentación como de cuidados. Gracias y gracias por ser tan GENEROSA
I just found you a channel based on something that was a little funky and honestly, I love that you are such a nerd. I will be following your channel now I say nerd in the nicest way you have a lot of skills and how to get a message across and I can tell you're extremely intelligent.
Hi, Jen! Your videos are truly helpful. They remind me of getting an excellent cue in yoga that makes the movement or pose suddenly make sense, and helps activate the body. Thank you! I'm in my early 30s and navigating the changes from pre-30. I've suddenly become more attuned to hormonal shifts, how my daily habits affect my immune system and brain health, how my thought patterns are important to explore. I was once a very dedicated athlete, always looking for the next physical challenge (ironman, long backpacking trips, hard rock climbing). I quite honestly viewed functioning in a state of depletion as a personal challenge or badge of honor. Now I've suddenly begun to absolutely resist that. I no longer desire to place my body and mind under such levels of stress. It's both healing and a battle sometimes. Your content has been such a companion for this journey. I always look forward to hearing your thoughtful and deliberate take on any topic. Thank you ❤
Thank you 🙏 There is so much “all or nothing” mentality in our world (never restrict anything). It’s easier from a treatment perspective, but as you said, it’s not true in life. Maybe it’s a graduate school-level recovery concept. ❤
Sugar and processes foods, aren't foods.. it is manufactured and not natural and meant for our body.. You are doing great!! And we can learn from you! I don't like liver, but thanks to you I now take grassfed beef liver supplements.. 😄. Better something than not at all.. Do you know milk Kefir? Easy to make and also very healthy! Like Ghee as well.. k2 in there as well 🌹❣️
I agrre with you. I have learned to eat to live instead of living to eat. I have been intermittent fasting for 4 years and k owing in that window of eating i had to change the way i was eating in order to get the proper nutrition. It has for me been a way of contolling what goes into my mouth. Glad you have found your path.
Thank you Jennifer. My name is almost like yours, Jenny, and I love watching your videos. Working in healthcare as a respiratory therapist I do cherish every moment of life, knowing how fragile it is. Don’t stop sharing your knowledge. Stay well 💝
Thank you so much for posting this. I want to gain some weight and I was wondering, if my undereye fat pads can recover a bit.. and this has given met hope :)
Jen, thank you so much for these recent videos. I appreciate your honesty and vulnerability. Although there are many other aspects I’m sure others here are curious about, we take what you want to give us and when you want to. ❤
Hello. My name is Oksana. I use tertinoin for six months, everything is great. I live in the South of France by the sea, a lot of sunshine. Tell me, is it dangerous to use tretinoin in summer? I always wear 50+ cream protection , also hat, glasses. i don't know to use or stop until autumn. As you do in the summer. Merci beaucoup ❤❤❤
Hi Jen,thank you for sharing your journey. I have a question, from your videos I learned you have been practice Yoga for many years. Did the Yoga practice helped during your recovery?
Thank you for sharing. I’ve seen many of your food prep videos, I just can’t stomach liver. I know it’s good for you but I just can’t. My mom and grandmother made liver as o was growing up and I ate it but can’t now. I have Hashimoto’s and need to be gluten free, I would love if you could give your thoughts on consuming gluten. If you are familiar with Hashimoto’s, can you do a video on that? Thanks again, I really look forward to your videos, they really help and inspire!
I totally understand, liver is definitely not the most appealing food. I find chicken liver tastes a bit better than beef, much less metallic. But it still has the same weird pasty texture. I cut it in small pieces so the texture doesn't bother me too much and cook it with lots of onion, this way it tastes pretty good to me.
I've always loved yoga but felt weird that I also believed from nutritional research that certain animal products are good for you when so many yogis are vegetarian/vegan. Great that I'm not the only one appreciating these foods xx
@@0zfxWhat medical source do you draw from that our bodies need honey? Saying “vegetarianism or veganism or plant-based diets are “lame” is your judgment on people’s personal choices and value systems. That is unkind and is you putting your beliefs on the rest of the world. Many people adopt plant based diets for health reasons or become vegetarian or vegan so as not to contribute to the horrific conditions animals are kept in (factory farming), terrifying slaughter and killed for their fur and manage to get complete proteins and nutrients. Version animals (like cats) need meat in their diet; that’s a medically known fact. Humans do not. (And no, I’m not vegetarian or vegan so I’m not biased. I just respect people’s personal choices.). How is showing compassion for other sentient creatures, “lame”? I wish everyone would strive to be kind about people’s values and choices instead of criticizing them.
@@0zfx I have a doctorate which less than 2% of Americans have so I’m not uneducated by any means. To make that assumption, simply, because I don’t agree with you, shows your own bias. I am quite aware of its antioxidant and immune boosting properties. However, it is not the only food to do that, and it is certainly not necessary for a healthy body. We can go back-and-forth looking at different studies and debate the matter all day, but I have a neither the time or the interest.
Jenny I suffer from an eating disorder and I have been through that too, I also have scoliosis & scapular winging due to muscles weakness. and I worry that you have it too , because one of your shoulders is lower than the other I don’t know if it’s because you’re sitting differently or because you have scoliosis, please take care !!
I love your 💄 lipstick. Which one are you wearing? Random fact about me: I own three books from the 1800s that I got at an estate sale 📖📚. Love history and books
Thank you. This was very helpful. I struggle with compulsive/emotional eating. Finding balance has always been difficult for me. I appreciate how you share your knowledge, wisdom and personal experience without implying your “health style” is the only way. You say a lot without saying too much- if that makes sense. Thank you for the calm and hope you bring.
@@TrainerInTraining lol, i have scoliosis myself and my shoulders are different, and I was wondering if she got it too, trying to warn people makes me a narcissist?? Grow up!! By the way I know that the shirt’s neckline could look different when you dress is which is normal, I’m talking about the shoulders. I compared them to each other and you can see the difference if you focus

Hi Jennifer, Loved this Video! Do you incorporate Sourdough bread in your diet? What type of Bread/Toast do prefer?
She doesn’t eat bread
makes total sense. she is so obsessive.
