I found out that my 15 year old daughter was a closet eater and after taking her to therapy found out that she had been dealing with depression due to her weight. Guess what , I put my ass and my entire family on a healthy eating regimen as well as working out on the daily. My daughter is finally happy and I can’t thank you you enough for the videos that you post. You’re truly an angel .
At the end of the day, loose skin is the least of my worries when being this overweight. I won’t let that fear hold me back from losing this weight, this is my year!
1. Avoid loosing weight too fast. (2 kgs per week) 2. Everything you put in your mouth counts. High on antioxidant. Good protein sources. Vitamin C Leinolic acid Collagen 3. Skin care Scrubbing Massages Mosturise 4. Exercise Resistance and strength training 5. Hydration 6. Prebiotics
Thats not true about loosing the weight too fast. The quicker the better, the slower you loose weight the more loose skin you retain. Look up Snake Juice Diet here on youtube. He talks more in depth about it.
1. Avoid losing weight too fast (2 to 4 lbs/week) 2. Everything you put in your mouth counts. Include antioxidants, collagen, proteins, vitamin C rich foods 3. Treat your skin well- exfoliate, dry brush, wet brush, massage 4. Moisturize (no hydroxys), good oils help best. No sulfates or harsh chemicals 5. Exercise- cardio and weight training 6. Hydrate!! Drink more water (coconut water is great as well) **I personally wouldn’t drink water before meals and don’t usually drink much during meals either because it dilutes stomach acid which helps digestion. Age, body type and genetics play a huge part in individual results but these tips will definitely help.
Thank you for the list! Also, drinking during meals actualy has no effect on digestive acids and does help with digestion. That's what the Mayo Clinic says on their website anyway
White Okay ruclips.net/user/postUgkx6K7NWahp9y3ir1gVAwysOCHOOPSnWZbw . I got it from my browser's history. I know that it's really frustrating to be over-weighted but all is possible with a strong determination. Good luck…..
It truly is especially as a short person when even I was skinny I felt fat because I was short with a more muscular build so even if i was like 100lbs I would look fatter than the taller irl who actually weighed 30 to even 40 pounds more. And the taller person was seen as more desirable than me...dealt with a lot of self esteem issues because of that and even to this day. Because it's like I work out harder but never get acknowledged for it...trying to do better caring less what others think. The excess fat doesn't make things easier but currently doing INSANITY because I got the best results with that plus walking 10k steps daily and eating LESS sugar, fat and carbs. I don't say NO but will say LESS because at the end of the day, your healthy food changes need to be sustainable as I am learning from a fitness trainer. :)
I'm 39 and have been cute, but overweight since childhood. During this new journey of life, I'm aiming to loose 100 pounds. It's taken me 14 1/2 months to lose 41 pounds, the last 28 lbs in the past 5 1/2 months. I'm so excited!
I’ve gone from 475 pounds to 350. It’s so weird still being a large person but with loose skin now. I’ll admit I’ve been nervous to do intense workouts but I think it’s time to start trying to tone more. This was very helpful thank you.
"This isn't a race. This is a lifestyle change." My god how much I needed to hear that right now! I have lost 30 lbs since beginning of January (almost 2 1/2 months). Some weeks I lost 5 lbs a week. For the last two weeks I have not gained or lost any weight so I was feeling down but I kept going and have been pushing myself harder than I ever have. I need to remind myself just what you said. There is no racing when your trying to change your lifestyle for the better. I always struggled with my weight and diabetes but am here to change that. Thank you for sharing this video truly inspiring.
I found one of your videos on how to avoid loose skin at the start of my weight loss journey(I had 100lbs to lose). Now I'm 80lbs down with no loose skin. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge😁💜
Hi there wondering how long were you at your heaviest? I ask this to see how much I have work at preventing the skin from remaining stretched during my weight loss. I have, thank God, decided to lose it slowly and methodically. So it would help to know the time frame in which skin on average can no longer bounce back.
I’m losing weight for my health! I’m currently 60 pounds down but I’m about halfway there! I got diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis 12/21/18 and lost my ability to walk. MS took away the strength in the lower half of my body and I remember sitting in a wheelchair at 25 thinking to myself that if I was 100 pounds lighter or had more muscle in my legs that maybe I wouldn’t be in this wheelchair. Or using a walker. So when I got released from physical therapy and was 90% better in June 2019, I wasn’t gonna let this opportunity pass me by so I started going to the gym 5 days a week and eating healthy. I’m having a relapse currently so I’m down for the count again but I won’t let it keep me down! I WILL lose this weight!
Awai Ebi I was diagnosed at 25 as well! Your post is inspiring to all! I am trying to get back into working out and have to remind myself that my current behavior makes all aspects of my life worse, especially the MS. You’ll be back to it soon. Your comment shows your strength and I am going to restart today.
Rye Ree so proud of you! Funny enough I was actually diagnosed at 24, the day before my 25th birthday 🤣 if a gym is too much right now (like it is for me) you can also do yoga. There is a book called yoga for MS and videos on RUclips to help you get started. We owe it to our bodies to do everything we can to fight this disease. Medicine and doctors can only do so much. I want to know that when I have a relapse that I did everything I could in my power to prepare for it. Good luck to you!!!
@@MoistNasa That is so true. Thise are the things that I have let go, the truth that so much of our health is in our own hands. Hope your relapse is done soon so you can get back to killing it. Thanks for the reccomendations. Will look into youtube yoga for sure!
Rye Ree thanks girl! I tried going back to the gym a couple nights ago and paid the price for it 🤣 just always remember that weight loss or living a healthy lifestyle isn’t about impressing anyone or looking good or fitting into a piece of clothing; it’s about being prepared for when life happens and things go wrong.
At my peak I weighed around 220 pounds and I knew and I had to reduce my weight but I was worried about the loose skin. Upon researching, I understood that I should take it slowly as my goal is to loose weight and take care of my skin. It took me 14 months to reach my goal. I lost 66.1387 pounds and I do not have loose skin. During my journey, I consumed a lot water and vegtables.
@@nayelilopez7083 1 foot at a time. 1 day at a time. U can do it! I'm cheering for u. And I'll take my own advice. 🙂 But 1st we need to sleep. Have a great day.
Young lady, I am so proud of you. You took it into your own hands, and now look at you! You are helping so many people! Keep it up! I am 70 years old, and I lost 35 pounds, and it took me two years! I have gained and lost so much weight in my lifetime. Listen to what she says--go slow--or you may regret it. God bless you! 🤩🤩🤩
The amount of positive energy is addictive! I'm 400lbs now, and I am the heaviest I've ever been! I was slipping into a depression but I think it just turned into "determination" 🙌🙌🙌 Thank you for sharing this in simplicity! ❤❤
I'm so proud of you!! It takes a strong person to want better for themselves and I'm praying that you're having a healthier and happier journey to where you want to be 💜
Hi! I just wanted to drop some positivity to you! I started my journey also at the heaviest I had ever been (struggled since childhood with weight) and let me just tell you to be super kind with yourself and celebrate every milestone and every effort! Don't focus on any "mess ups" but just focus on the positive changes you're making. I hope the best for you and your journey ❤️
i feel like this is strange and off topic, but i love the way you speak. it’s soothing and kind but you also speak with such conviction! such goals and so pleasing.
Totally. I love how she doesn’t use more words than necessary, and she doesn’t use “umm” and “ah” and “you know” incessantly like some other you tubers.
When I found out about the the after care of weight loss surgery, I said, oh lord, I'm gonna just gonna start working out every day. Guess what I'm down 15 pounds.
Thank you for speaking so openly and plainly about this. I'm loving the community of women on RUclips who are sharing what they've learned in their weight loss journey, no pity, no shame. It's really boosting my confidence. I recently started learning how to roller skate and it's been helping SO MUCH. I feel muscles, even and ESPECIALLY in my upper body waking up again. The skincare routine is something I have been lacking, which is so important because I have a collagen disorder! I should be paying EXTRA special care to my skin throughout my journey.
I just started my weight loss journey this year. I'm tired of being 240 lb and not having enough energy to play with my kid for extended periods of time. So watching your video and how you did things and how you catered to your bodies need specifically instead of trying out all these different trends and challenges, I really appreciate that. It really helped open my eyes to what my body may personally need that's different to everybody else's. Thank you. ♥️
I was overweight a lot of my life. At 15 I decided to lose weight. Made it to 170 from 220 at the age of 17. At 18, I got hit by a car while riding my back. I went from riding my bike 6 miles daily to none at all. Got really depressed and started eating bad with no exercise. I suffered a concussion. From the age of 18-20 I gained just about 100 pounds. I gained all my weight back PLUS 50 pounds. I turned 21 and decided I needed a change. This past almost year I’ve lost 30 pounds!! I’m at 220 again and I’m turning 22 in June. This WILL be the last time I fight this battle. I will succeed one day. But I’m tryna take it slow. I will get there. Thank you for the loose skin advice!!
Keep it up I'm 21, weight 265 :/ this whole corona thing and stressing has added to the binge eating on top of depression since I was an adolescent. I want to start this journey too! Good luck on your journey ❣️
watch out what you brand as self love these days as some of those "self love" people would call what she's doing self-hate as an excuse for them to further ruin their health.
Idk why this video resonated in a way that brought me to tears. When you mentioned the “take care of the body you currently have” I lost it. Thank you for your personable and educating video, queen.🙏🏽Praying for myself on this health journey! Happy and Blessed New Year to you!
I was trying to figure out why you are so likeable and at half way I got it. You genuinely love yourself and people who are happy are kind, honest and endearing (not to be confused with narcissism that is a form of self hate from insecurity). The advice you give is simple, accurate and we need more of that message in society.
I have honestly never admired a RUclipsr more than I admire this lady. She is straight up honest and intelligent, willing to share what she's learned and best of all non-judgmental. These are the kinds of influencers that our young daughters should be looking up to! Keep it up, you are AMAZING!
Omg this is something so small but THANKYOU for including the clip on the very beginning of the crotch sweat while you were working out. This happens to me all the time and I’m always so embarrassed about it and feel like I’m the only one who has this problem! Thank you for normalizing it!!!
Autophagy and Autology, both processes help with the excess proteins we call loose skin, and both are helped to be set in motion by proper fasting. Fasting is a lot of different ways of eating/not eating (juice fasting for instance, won't set autophagy in motion, although it does many other nice things.) So you have to investigate the different ways to fast so you aren't defeating yourself. Dr Mindy Pelz has some great videos on this topic.
I’m glad I came across this video! I never knew you could get rid of the loose skin after loosing weight just by taking it slower and building muscle. Very helpful! I saved your video to help guide me during my weight loss journey
I worked with a black woman many years ago, she had beautiful tight skin. When she told me she was 82 I could not believe it. I think dark skin is at an advantage naturally.
I think the one thing black people do regularly, consistently is moisturize their entire body. From the time I was 6, I never take a shower/bath without moisturing afterwards. Vaseline products and pure glycerine are household staples in black families.
“I dont want to sign up to do all this shit again”. That’s where I’m at right now, Sis. I’m back to living healthier after I lose this excess weight I don’t want to do all this work again.
Had to pause just to say: Yes. The results really are THAT impressive. It’s even more amazing to think you pulled it off yourself, without surgery. (Not that surgery is shameful.) ♥️ You seriously motivate me. Going to finish the video now! Blessings.🌟
I HAD SURGERY IN 09 BUT FOLKS HAVE THE MISCONCEPTION YOU DON'T DO WORK. YOUR EFFORT DETERMINES YOUR SUCCESS. YOU CAN GET SURGERY AND STILL BE FAT REGAIN IT AND IT WAS ALL FOR NOTHING. ITS A LIFESTYLE CHANGE AND LIFETIME COMMITMENT I GOT COMPLACENT IN MY 5TH YEAR AND REGAINED ALL BUT 16LBS I HAD THE GASTRIC BY PASS ITS 1 AND DONE NO REVISION. HARD WORK AND DETERMINATION WAS MY 2ND JOURNEY. I WOULD NOT HOWEVER RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE BECAUSE THE SAME COMMITMENT IS NEEDED BUT SOME ARE TOO FAR THEY HAVE TO. IT HAS A NUMBER OF OTHER HEALTH ISSUES THAT COMES WITH IT THEY DON'T TELL YOU ABOUT. MICRONUTRIENT DEFICIENCY CAUSES MANY HEALTH ISSUES.
I've been watching your videos since about 2010. You are truly an inspiring woman! Thank you so much for sharing with all of us. I've lost 135.6 over the last 15 month. I was diagnosed with Lupus then soon after type 2 diabetes came along. I was placed on a CPAP, I couldn't breathe, my breathing stopped 78 times per night based on a sleep study, I became incontinent, couldn't walk more than a few minutes, couldn't dress myself. I was literally crushing myself alive, my bones and organs couldn't take the heaviness. So, I started to refuse the steroid injections, I weaned off 8 other of the plethora of medications I was prescribed. Yet even seeing my suffering staring her in the face as I grew more I'll with by each visit, my Doctor fought me on stopping these meds that were seriously poisoning my body. Then ultimately she had to finally agree with me as I developed some heart concerns. These were some severe side effects.. I just knew I was at deaths door. Yet, considering that this weight was gained throughout a span of a 16 month period approx. 3 years ago, the weight seems to be falling off as quickly as it was gained. I've not been able to exercise effectively until just a few weeks ago and I think this is why the redundant skin seems relentless. I just keep telling myself I didn't make it this far just to make it this far! Currently with dry brushing, hydration, butter rubs, IMF/autophagy, collagen, and eating an anti inflammatory diet I'm hoping I can overcome. I realize that this is actually a small obstacle. From 352lbs down to 216lbs as off today 🙌 Praise God! I'm hopeful now to be able to stick around to get to grow up my youngest child and prepare her for life....I am SO very grateful for life! #PressOn
I've been saying that for a long time, on the whole, "let your body retract and acclimate." People forget the whole body is a living thing, it's not just you in there...it remembers things that effect it, either in a negative or positive way. Just like your mind is taking notes/recording things you say to yourself that projects your reality... So right on in this video 🥰🥰🥰....always positive self-talk to yourself, and your body will follow, and if you have to physically love yourself first, then your mind will follow. Great video!
I’ve lost 79 pounds since I was 14. I did it on and off up until I was 17, and that’s when I officially started to drop and keep it off. I started at 230 and I’m now at 151. My goal weight has always been 150, and it’s surreal to finally be here. As much as I wanted it to happen instantly, I’m happy I’ve been taking it slow. I have a lot of extra skin, but I’m young and I really look forward to keeping my current lifestyle and pushing myself further (in a healthy way!) on top of its. I never thought I’d get this far, but I feel so good. I have a lot of time to tighten my skin since I’m young and working out 5 days a week, and I shouldn’t be discouraged by it. It’s a sign I worked incredibly hard to get where I am now and I will be proud of myself for that. I’d rather have the extra skin and feel great instead of having the extra weight and being in constant physical pain like I was.
I turn 40 this year and I am so glad that I have found you. I have PCOS and suffer from severe depression. I could lose half of myself and still be obese Finding your gives me hope. Thank you!
One of the best videos on self care, hands down! Telling you what you need to hear, not just what you WANT to hear. Telling it real and how it is. Very nice! Thank you!
Loved this video, I wish I found this sooner. I’m down 65 pounds. My skin isn’t too bad except for my stomach. Thanks for being so honest about everything!
This video was absolutely amazing. It was super informative but simultaneously made me feel okay with myself as I’m watching it. Thank you for making it. I love how real you are and how you just genuinely want to help others get informed. Honestly, best video about weight loss/loose skin I’ve ever seen. Definitely saving for later to watch again with a pen and paper to start trying some of these things out. Thank you again!
Oh wow, you are the bright light of positivity, acceptance and information that I needed so desperately. Thank you for restoring some hope to this lost soul.
I adore you! I don’t need to lose weight but I need self care .. coming out of a 7 yr DV relationship and my skin used to be so important to me and I lost the nurturing side of myself for myself .. you truly spoke to me : ) ... I’m glad I came across your video .. thank you 🤗
Yay! That is Eonderful! It makes me soo hapy to hear that ! Being kind and taling good care of body like a wise and loving parent to a child is wonderful! Also respecting and honoring the body with gratitude LOVE and wonder for the wonderful thing it and all the wondrous things ot does... this is a wonderful comment to read! Treating your body like it I'd lovable and yourSELF like you're lovable. Remembering that thst is TRUE - IS WONDERFUL! GOOD COMES FROM THAT! And that'll automatically keep people off harmful paths and to easily avoid harmful pitfalls. Thsnk you!
I'm a massage therapist and I approve this video. I'm on a health journey as well. I love that you go over skin care and science behind your health journey.
Thank you so much for such a great crash course on how to get started on losing weight the correct way. So many people will say "you need to lose weight" and then just expect you to know how to do it immediately without any knowledge and then judge you when you don't even know where to start.
I am 51. Menopausal, & in a wheelchair. For me, three pounds a month is my goal. I do 2000 steps on a seated cross trainer 4 to 5 days a week, depending on my schedule. Also strength training / stretch bands / adaptive yoga, three times a week. I have used a wheelchair & crutches since birth. I am five ft. tall & was a well muscled size 9/10 at my most in shape. Which for me meant a strong healthy body. I had a severe fall two years ago. Causing muscle / nerve damage. Recovery was long. I was unable to exercise / move for a good portion of a year. I came out of the hospital a size 18. I am now a size 15, or a half size. Slow, & steady wins my race. I am not capable of eating, or burning. The amount of calories someone who walks, is. A byproduct of this slowed down process so far, has been no lose skin. Thumbnail is me, June of 2019. Remember to keep hydrated. Unsweetened tea, flavored seltzer, or water. Don't Drink your calories. Single biggest contribution to my weight loss. In the very beginning. I also limit salt, sugar, & animal fat. Eat a ton of veges, legumes, / unsalted seeds & nuts. avocados / salads. A small amount of whole grains. Lean meat / cheese & bread twice a month. Talk to your Dr. certainly. That said. Unless there is an immediate medical need for rapid weight loss. Starting out slowly. Even if you have 100 pounds to lose. Is better for a healthy, sustained result. You cannot change your habits quickly, or all at once. Small changes can lead to big results. Without leaving you overwhelmed. Stress affects your metabolism. As does alcohol. Above all, move. Increase duration & intensity over time. As your body gets stronger. Also switch it up once in a while. Dance, swim.
Just seeing you for the 1st time today and I am So thoroughly impressed with Everything you are saying and doing! What an inspiration! I believe God put you on this Earth to motivate bring Joy to so many people who've lost their will to go forward👏🏽💯👏🏽 you're amazing, thank you for all you do!
Inspiring, I have lost 60 pounds through diet and now am looking to tone up all this loose skin! Love seeing how beautiful and powerful your message is! Happy I found you and ready to move to the next steps in my weight loss journey!
I have watched so many videos on weight loss and I can say this video is so honest. You have touched on so many things noone has discussed! I love how much you preach about self love and self care. I kind of want to be your friend LOL. Great job and thanks for sharing!
I am so happy I found you! I've lost about 90 pounds so far and am 10 pounds from my goal. I did have bariatric surgery and so far I am lucky to have minimal loose skin. I take care of my skin on my face and neck. This video has so much amazing information on taking care of the rest of my skin/body. Thank you! 💛

And just overall changing my mindset. I will definitely be going to the store to get some of your recommendations 😊
Yes I am seeing the loose skin now. I do try different workout but hopefully the slow progress of losing the weight and working out will help with the skin issue a little. But I don’t think I can avoid it 🤨

I love love love that the first thing you mentioned was that it's not a race to see how fast you can loose the weight, but rather being able to lose little at a time, and practicing healthy habits. It's about the long-term goal of being healthy, not just body, but mind as well. So many people are doing keto diets and all kinds of cleanses and starvation diets, along with these vigorous exercises to lose weight quickly, but don't realize they have to train their mind for the long haul as well.
First, I LOVE how your skin glows. Second, awesome advice on self-care. And third, your anti-shame stance is a great message that needs to be shouted from the rooftops. I found your video to be hopeful and helpful, and will keep your advice in mind. Thank you.
Blessings on you for posting this. ❤️ Most people are so focused on losing pounds that they forget the main ingredient in the recipe: thoroughly taking care of the body all along - pre and post weight loss -🌺
Your videos are what I need In the morning I gained 50 pounds after 2 babies during this pandemic they are Irish twins and I'm on the journey to getting back right. I love the motivation and the mental health you talk about. I managed to keep the weight off for 13 years until pregnancy and now I'm on the journey to self health. You're fabulous

Loved this video!! My Heaviest was 250 lbs. I maintained a 50lb weight loss for 10 years. My body slowly transformed. This year with all the extra time, I’ve lost another 25. I am loving the changes I feel and see. I do tend to get discouraged at times with my flabby arms and thighs. They are slowly shrinking. I personally don’t want any more surgeries. I’ve had way too many that I couldn’t avoid. Seeing this video gave me hope that with determination, I can loose the flabbiness.
I really like you. No BS. Just honest, helpful inspiration. Thank you. I'm finally feeling like I'm ready to change to the vegan lifestyle I've been wanting after watching a few of your videos. Thank you, thank you.
I to am just starting, I have fibro currently in a flare and back issues which this Monday I'm getting a nerve block. I have been steadily gaining due yio lack of exercise, poor sleep and portion size I think. I sure need a group like this for the weight loss and definitely self care.

1. Avoid loosing weight too fast. (2 kgs per week)
2. Everything you put in your mouth counts.
High on antioxidant.
Good protein sources.
Vitamin C
Leinolic acid
Collagen
3. Skin care
Scrubbing
Massages
Mosturise
4. Exercise
Resistance and strength training
5. Hydration
6. Prebiotics
Thats not true about loosing the weight too fast. The quicker the better, the slower you loose weight the more loose skin you retain. Look up Snake Juice Diet here on youtube. He talks more in depth about it.

So true
1. Avoid losing weight too fast (2 to 4 lbs/week)
2. Everything you put in your mouth counts. Include antioxidants, collagen, proteins, vitamin C rich foods
3. Treat your skin well- exfoliate, dry brush, wet brush, massage
4. Moisturize (no hydroxys), good oils help best. No sulfates or harsh chemicals
5. Exercise- cardio and weight training
6. Hydrate!! Drink more water (coconut water is great as well)
**I personally wouldn’t drink water before meals and don’t usually drink much during meals either because it dilutes stomach acid which helps digestion.
Age, body type and genetics play a huge part in individual results but these tips will definitely help.
Thank you...I came here looking for you😂
Thank you for the list! Also, drinking during meals actualy has no effect on digestive acids and does help with digestion. That's what the Mayo Clinic says on their website anyway
Thank you so much.
Gaby A. Faris right I would definitely drink while eating it does help with digestion
Really?
In the military I never had ibs the forced two cups of water was great for me
But I guess everyone is different
White Okay ruclips.net/user/postUgkx6K7NWahp9y3ir1gVAwysOCHOOPSnWZbw . I got it from my browser's history. I know that it's really frustrating to be over-weighted but all is possible with a strong determination. Good luck…..
It truly is especially as a short person when even I was skinny I felt fat because I was short with a more muscular build so even if i was like 100lbs I would look fatter than the taller irl who actually weighed 30 to even 40 pounds more. And the taller person was seen as more desirable than me...dealt with a lot of self esteem issues because of that and even to this day. Because it's like I work out harder but never get acknowledged for it...trying to do better caring less what others think. The excess fat doesn't make things easier but currently doing INSANITY because I got the best results with that plus walking 10k steps daily and eating LESS sugar, fat and carbs. I don't say NO but will say LESS because at the end of the day, your healthy food changes need to be sustainable as I am learning from a fitness trainer. :)
I'm 39 and have been cute, but overweight since childhood. During this new journey of life, I'm aiming to loose 100 pounds. It's taken me 14 1/2 months to lose 41 pounds, the last 28 lbs in the past 5 1/2 months. I'm so excited!
Best of luck to you beautiful lady.
Dang girl? Congrats!! Keep is posted
loose skin ?? congrats btw
👏👏👏
Slow and steady wins the race!!
I’ve gone from 475 pounds to 350. It’s so weird still being a large person but with loose skin now. I’ll admit I’ve been nervous to do intense workouts but I think it’s time to start trying to tone more. This was very helpful thank you.
Congrats! I’m proud of you 🥰
Good luck with your progress
You Rock!! 🥰🥰
Keep up the great work!
Wow that’s amazing. Well done.
What are the odds u post this when i started looking up how to avoid loose skin. Currently 95lbs down
Go you! That’s awesome!
Same!!!
Congratulations!
thanks all. looking to go at least 20 more but depends on my physique
CrazySexyCoolmeisha I’m 80 lbs down. This video is right on time!
I need to lose 60 more lbs and I’ve already lost 25.

Do you’ve loose skin till yet??
Woo! You go! Keep it up❤️
Congrats on your progress
Amy J. I’m on the same boat.
When you said "I don't want to do that shit again" I felt all of that 🤣🤣
"This isn't a race. This is a lifestyle change."
My god how much I needed to hear that right now! I have lost 30 lbs since beginning of January (almost 2 1/2 months). Some weeks I lost 5 lbs a week. For the last two weeks I have not gained or lost any weight so I was feeling down but I kept going and have been pushing myself harder than I ever have. I need to remind myself just what you said. There is no racing when your trying to change your lifestyle for the better. I always struggled with my weight and diabetes but am here to change that. Thank you for sharing this video truly inspiring.
I found one of your videos on how to avoid loose skin at the start of my weight loss journey(I had 100lbs to lose). Now I'm 80lbs down with no loose skin. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge😁💜
What is the name of the video? Please.
Hi there wondering how long were you at your heaviest? I ask this to see how much I have work at preventing the skin from remaining stretched during my weight loss. I have, thank God, decided to lose it slowly and methodically. So it would help to know the time frame in which skin on average can no longer bounce back.
I’m losing weight for my health! I’m currently 60 pounds down but I’m about halfway there! I got diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis 12/21/18 and lost my ability to walk. MS took away the strength in the lower half of my body and I remember sitting in a wheelchair at 25 thinking to myself that if I was 100 pounds lighter or had more muscle in my legs that maybe I wouldn’t be in this wheelchair. Or using a walker. So when I got released from physical therapy and was 90% better in June 2019, I wasn’t gonna let this opportunity pass me by so I started going to the gym 5 days a week and eating healthy. I’m having a relapse currently so I’m down for the count again but I won’t let it keep me down! I WILL lose this weight!
You can do it. You have it in you! Let us know how it goes.
Awai Ebi I was diagnosed at 25 as well! Your post is inspiring to all! I am trying to get back into working out and have to remind myself that my current behavior makes all aspects of my life worse, especially the MS. You’ll be back to it soon. Your comment shows your strength and I am going to restart today.
Rye Ree so proud of you! Funny enough I was actually diagnosed at 24, the day before my 25th birthday 🤣 if a gym is too much right now (like it is for me) you can also do yoga. There is a book called yoga for MS and videos on RUclips to help you get started. We owe it to our bodies to do everything we can to fight this disease. Medicine and doctors can only do so much. I want to know that when I have a relapse that I did everything I could in my power to prepare for it. Good luck to you!!!
@@MoistNasa That is so true. Thise are the things that I have let go, the truth that so much of our health is in our own hands. Hope your relapse is done soon so you can get back to killing it. Thanks for the reccomendations. Will look into youtube yoga for sure!
Rye Ree thanks girl! I tried going back to the gym a couple nights ago and paid the price for it 🤣 just always remember that weight loss or living a healthy lifestyle isn’t about impressing anyone or looking good or fitting into a piece of clothing; it’s about being prepared for when life happens and things go wrong.
At my peak I weighed around 220 pounds and I knew and I had to reduce my weight but I was worried about the loose skin. Upon researching, I understood that I should take it slowly as my goal is to loose weight and take care of my skin. It took me 14 months to reach my goal. I lost 66.1387 pounds and I do not have loose skin. During my journey, I consumed a lot water and vegtables.
Thank you
I need help!! I’m at my heaviest weight. I’m heavier now than when I was 9 months pregnant! 🤦♀️
how tall are you? was around 220 and now I’m 180, no loose skin
Thank you for the info!!

I am 3 weeks into my new weight loss journey. 7 lbs down and feeling so happy....I am doing it right and slow.
How are you doing ?
I would love to hear about that too
I used coconut oil and vitamin E oil on my skin during pregnancy and got no stretch marks. 🙏🏻 And they DO run in my family!

Young lady, I am so proud of you. You took it into your own hands, and now look at you! You are helping so many people! Keep it up! I am 70 years old, and I lost 35 pounds, and it took me two years! I have gained and lost so much weight in my lifetime. Listen to what she says--go slow--or you may regret it. God bless you! 🤩🤩🤩
The amount of positive energy is addictive! I'm 400lbs now, and I am the heaviest I've ever been! I was slipping into a depression but I think it just turned into "determination" 🙌🙌🙌 Thank you for sharing this in simplicity! ❤❤
I'm so proud of you!! It takes a strong person to want better for themselves and I'm praying that you're having a healthier and happier journey to where you want to be 💜
Hi! I just wanted to drop some positivity to you! I started my journey also at the heaviest I had ever been (struggled since childhood with weight) and let me just tell you to be super kind with yourself and celebrate every milestone and every effort! Don't focus on any "mess ups" but just focus on the positive changes you're making. I hope the best for you and your journey ❤️
Checking in on you 💕 I hope all's well
You got this ...are strong
i feel like this is strange and off topic, but i love the way you speak. it’s soothing and kind but you also speak with such conviction! such goals and so pleasing.
it was like a warm hug and a pep talk at the same time- it came at the right moment in the covid slumps 😔
its cause she's not lecturing or acting. she comes across very authentically her and talking to us as if we are her friends
Agreed
Totally. I love how she doesn’t use more words than necessary, and she doesn’t use “umm” and “ah” and “you know” incessantly like some other you tubers.
Her voice & face is definitely for the camera
When I found out about the the after care of weight loss surgery, I said, oh lord, I'm gonna just gonna start working out every day. Guess what I'm down 15 pounds.
Good for you.
I’ve lost 25 lbs so far and my goal is 60 more lbs. I’ve been losing since the end of May.
Go Michele!!

AS YOU SHOULD QUEEN
Thank you for speaking so openly and plainly about this. I'm loving the community of women on RUclips who are sharing what they've learned in their weight loss journey, no pity, no shame. It's really boosting my confidence.
I recently started learning how to roller skate and it's been helping SO MUCH. I feel muscles, even and ESPECIALLY in my upper body waking up again. The skincare routine is something I have been lacking, which is so important because I have a collagen disorder! I should be paying EXTRA special care to my skin throughout my journey.
I just started my weight loss journey this year. I'm tired of being 240 lb and not having enough energy to play with my kid for extended periods of time. So watching your video and how you did things and how you catered to your bodies need specifically instead of trying out all these different trends and challenges, I really appreciate that. It really helped open my eyes to what my body may personally need that's different to everybody else's. Thank you. ♥️
I was overweight a lot of my life. At 15 I decided to lose weight. Made it to 170 from 220 at the age of 17. At 18, I got hit by a car while riding my back. I went from riding my bike 6 miles daily to none at all. Got really depressed and started eating bad with no exercise. I suffered a concussion. From the age of 18-20 I gained just about 100 pounds. I gained all my weight back PLUS 50 pounds. I turned 21 and decided I needed a change. This past almost year I’ve lost 30 pounds!! I’m at 220 again and I’m turning 22 in June. This WILL be the last time I fight this battle. I will succeed one day. But I’m tryna take it slow. I will get there. Thank you for the loose skin advice!!
Be blessed!
I'm proud of you for sharing your story...and you can do this!!!
Cici selfcare thank u so much didn’t even realize anyone would see this 🥺 I appreciate the motivation
Keep it up I'm 21, weight 265 :/ this whole corona thing and stressing has added to the binge eating on top of depression since I was an adolescent. I want to start this journey too! Good luck on your journey ❣️
You can do this 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You are the epitome of self-love, from your skin to your hair to your weight loss
She definitely is.
I was thinking the same thing. She is glowing. 🥰
watch out what you brand as self love these days as some of those "self love" people would call what she's doing self-hate as an excuse for them to further ruin their health.
@Women & Women First I was being sarcastic if you didn't notice
almost 60 and you've just given me my motivation back. i have truly enjoyed watching this video.
Idk why this video resonated in a way that brought me to tears. When you mentioned the “take care of the body you currently have” I lost it. Thank you for your personable and educating video, queen.🙏🏽Praying for myself on this health journey! Happy and Blessed New Year to you!
70 down and I have to constantly remind myself slow and steady wins the race! Thanks for the vid!❤
Congrats 💖
Ray A. You’re doing amazing!!
Ray can you share any weightloss tips?
Ray A. Congratulations 🍾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I was trying to figure out why you are so likeable and at half way I got it. You genuinely love yourself and people who are happy are kind, honest and endearing (not to be confused with narcissism that is a form of self hate from insecurity). The advice you give is simple, accurate and we need more of that message in society.
I have honestly never admired a RUclipsr more than I admire this lady. She is straight up honest and intelligent, willing to share what she's learned and best of all non-judgmental. These are the kinds of influencers that our young daughters should be looking up to! Keep it up, you are AMAZING!
Omg this is something so small but THANKYOU for including the clip on the very beginning of the crotch sweat while you were working out. This happens to me all the time and I’m always so embarrassed about it and feel like I’m the only one who has this problem! Thank you for normalizing it!!!
This woman's gonna look 40 when she's 85
Really
black doesnt crack
@@awoa2011 period
But that statement is a fact lol look it up, and stop getting butthurt off of what people say.
85??!??!??? i thought she was 30
Fasting also helps tighten and help skin rebound through the process of autophagy where cells eat up excess proteins.
Wow really? I'll have to research this. Thanks for sharing.
This is tested by me in a month of fasting i.e. Ramadan.
@@shaistanooreen5436 the type of fasting that Muslims do during Ramadan is not Intermittent fasting and will not cause autophagy.
@@angelicearthling Well, It can be, but it often isn't.
Autophagy and Autology, both processes help with the excess proteins we call loose skin, and both are helped to be set in motion by proper fasting. Fasting is a lot of different ways of eating/not eating (juice fasting for instance, won't set autophagy in motion, although it does many other nice things.) So you have to investigate the different ways to fast so you aren't defeating yourself. Dr Mindy Pelz has some great videos on this topic.
I’m glad I came across this video! I never knew you could get rid of the loose skin after loosing weight just by taking it slower and building muscle. Very helpful! I saved your video to help guide me during my weight loss journey
I worked with a black woman many years ago, she had beautiful tight skin. When she told me she was 82 I could not believe it. I think dark skin is at an advantage naturally.
More melanin in the skin means more nutrition. So maybe that makes it stronger .
@@tumatilakshmipriya220 whaattt never knew that
I think the one thing black people do regularly, consistently is moisturize their entire body. From the time I was 6, I never take a shower/bath without moisturing afterwards. Vaseline products and pure glycerine are household staples in black families.
@@lerangm sammmee like my mom really be putting a whole bottle on my face before going to school everyday lol
@@lerangm I never thought about it but his probably does play a part
“I dont want to sign up to do all this shit again”. That’s where I’m at right now, Sis. I’m back to living healthier after I lose this excess weight I don’t want to do all this work again.
CarefreeCurlz yes maam. I get it. Maintaining is key!
CarefreeCurlz okay
Had to pause just to say: Yes. The results really are THAT impressive. It’s even more amazing to think you pulled it off yourself, without surgery. (Not that surgery is shameful.) ♥️ You seriously motivate me. Going to finish the video now! Blessings.🌟
Thank you so much! Nothing wrong with surgery at all!
Emily it really IS that IMPRESSIVE! She is beautiful
I HAD SURGERY IN 09 BUT FOLKS HAVE THE MISCONCEPTION YOU DON'T DO WORK. YOUR EFFORT DETERMINES YOUR SUCCESS. YOU CAN GET SURGERY AND STILL BE FAT REGAIN IT AND IT WAS ALL FOR NOTHING. ITS A LIFESTYLE CHANGE AND LIFETIME COMMITMENT I GOT COMPLACENT IN MY 5TH YEAR AND REGAINED ALL BUT 16LBS I HAD THE GASTRIC BY PASS ITS 1 AND DONE NO REVISION. HARD WORK AND DETERMINATION WAS MY 2ND JOURNEY. I WOULD NOT HOWEVER RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE BECAUSE THE SAME COMMITMENT IS NEEDED BUT SOME ARE TOO FAR THEY HAVE TO. IT HAS A NUMBER OF OTHER HEALTH ISSUES THAT COMES WITH IT THEY DON'T TELL YOU ABOUT. MICRONUTRIENT DEFICIENCY CAUSES MANY HEALTH ISSUES.
I love how she is being real with the topic.
I've been watching your videos since about 2010. You are truly an inspiring woman! Thank you so much for sharing with all of us. I've lost 135.6 over the last 15 month. I was diagnosed with Lupus then soon after type 2 diabetes came along. I was placed on a CPAP, I couldn't breathe, my breathing stopped 78 times per night based on a sleep study, I became incontinent, couldn't walk more than a few minutes, couldn't dress myself. I was literally crushing myself alive, my bones and organs couldn't take the heaviness. So, I started to refuse the steroid injections, I weaned off 8 other of the plethora of medications I was prescribed. Yet even seeing my suffering staring her in the face as I grew more I'll with by each visit, my Doctor fought me on stopping these meds that were seriously poisoning my body. Then ultimately she had to finally agree with me as I developed some heart concerns. These were some severe side effects.. I just knew I was at deaths door. Yet, considering that this weight was gained throughout a span of a 16 month period approx. 3 years ago, the weight seems to be falling off as quickly as it was gained. I've not been able to exercise effectively until just a few weeks ago and I think this is why the redundant skin seems relentless. I just keep telling myself I didn't make it this far just to make it this far! Currently with dry brushing, hydration, butter rubs, IMF/autophagy, collagen, and eating an anti inflammatory diet I'm hoping I can overcome. I realize that this is actually a small obstacle. From 352lbs down to 216lbs as off today 🙌 Praise God! I'm hopeful now to be able to stick around to get to grow up my youngest child and prepare her for life....I am SO very grateful for life! #PressOn
I ain't never seen nobody so real while giving accurate info. Great advice Every word !!
Ikr. She's actually wants to help and is not interested in shaming or judging. If more people would adopt this attitude and some empathy...huh
I've been saying that for a long time, on the whole, "let your body retract and acclimate." People forget the whole body is a living thing, it's not just you in there...it remembers things that effect it, either in a negative or positive way. Just like your mind is taking notes/recording things you say to yourself that projects your reality... So right on in this video 🥰🥰🥰....always positive self-talk to yourself, and your body will follow, and if you have to physically love yourself first, then your mind will follow. Great video!

I’ve lost 79 pounds since I was 14. I did it on and off up until I was 17, and that’s when I officially started to drop and keep it off. I started at 230 and I’m now at 151. My goal weight has always been 150, and it’s surreal to finally be here. As much as I wanted it to happen instantly, I’m happy I’ve been taking it slow. I have a lot of extra skin, but I’m young and I really look forward to keeping my current lifestyle and pushing myself further (in a healthy way!) on top of its. I never thought I’d get this far, but I feel so good. I have a lot of time to tighten my skin since I’m young and working out 5 days a week, and I shouldn’t be discouraged by it. It’s a sign I worked incredibly hard to get where I am now and I will be proud of myself for that. I’d rather have the extra skin and feel great instead of having the extra weight and being in constant physical pain like I was.
I turn 40 this year and I am so glad that I have found you. I have PCOS and suffer from severe depression. I could lose half of myself and still be obese Finding your gives me hope. Thank you!
I really love how kind and non-judgy your attitude is.

Thank you so much for such a great crash course on how to get started on losing weight the correct way. So many people will say "you need to lose weight" and then just expect you to know how to do it immediately without any knowledge and then judge you when you don't even know where to start.
I love how specific she is with her weight loss
I am 51. Menopausal, & in a wheelchair. For me, three pounds a month is my goal. I do 2000 steps on a seated cross trainer 4 to 5 days a week, depending on my schedule. Also strength training / stretch bands / adaptive yoga, three times a week. I have used a wheelchair & crutches since birth. I am five ft. tall & was a well muscled size 9/10 at my most in shape. Which for me meant a strong healthy body. I had a severe fall two years ago. Causing muscle / nerve damage. Recovery was long. I was unable to exercise / move for a good portion of a year. I came out of the hospital a size 18. I am now a size 15, or a half size. Slow, & steady wins my race. I am not capable of eating, or burning. The amount of calories someone who walks, is. A byproduct of this slowed down process so far, has been no lose skin. Thumbnail is me, June of 2019. Remember to keep hydrated. Unsweetened tea, flavored seltzer, or water. Don't Drink your calories. Single biggest contribution to my weight loss. In the very beginning. I also limit salt, sugar, & animal fat. Eat a ton of veges, legumes, / unsalted seeds & nuts. avocados / salads. A small amount of whole grains. Lean meat / cheese & bread twice a month. Talk to your Dr. certainly. That said. Unless there is an immediate medical need for rapid weight loss. Starting out slowly. Even if you have 100 pounds to lose. Is better for a healthy, sustained result. You cannot change your habits quickly, or all at once. Small changes can lead to big results. Without leaving you overwhelmed. Stress affects your metabolism. As does alcohol. Above all, move. Increase duration & intensity over time. As your body gets stronger. Also switch it up once in a while. Dance, swim.
This is really great advice, thanks so much for your story
Thank you for the advice!! Take care and god bless

I love love love that the first thing you mentioned was that it's not a race to see how fast you can loose the weight, but rather being able to lose little at a time, and practicing healthy habits. It's about the long-term goal of being healthy, not just body, but mind as well. So many people are doing keto diets and all kinds of cleanses and starvation diets, along with these vigorous exercises to lose weight quickly, but don't realize they have to train their mind for the long haul as well.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR DOCTORATE...VERY PROUD OF YOU QUEEN!!! KEEP SHARING YOUR EXPERIENCE. HEART YOU!!!
I love how you are so kind to your audience. God bless you.
I LOVE the way you understand and motivate without having to know anyone...that's a special kind of skill. Ty!! 🤗
THIS IS THE CONTENT I NEED! I’m on my journey to lose 100 pounds! Thank you for this! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
First, I LOVE how your skin glows. Second, awesome advice on self-care. And third, your anti-shame stance is a great message that needs to be shouted from the rooftops. I found your video to be hopeful and helpful, and will keep your advice in mind. Thank you.
You are an inspiration! I’m heading to the gym next week to start my own journey. I’ll be checking in for more tips!
Blessings on you for posting this. ❤️ Most people are so focused on losing pounds that they forget the main ingredient in the recipe: thoroughly taking care of the body all along - pre and post weight loss -🌺
Your videos are what I need In the morning I gained 50 pounds after 2 babies during this pandemic they are Irish twins and I'm on the journey to getting back right. I love the motivation and the mental health you talk about. I managed to keep the weight off for 13 years until pregnancy and now I'm on the journey to self health. You're fabulous

Build muscle. That’s a big way to tighten skin..
I heard omega 3 is good for the skin
Derma rolling?
@@rockisrx Derma rolling wont do it. Micro needle therapy could help.
Definitely inspired me… I’ve been saying I need to start exercising but my dedication meter has low. Thanks for the motivation! ❤️
Thank you my friend, my sister have issues with "Colorism" and when you mention "BeautifulBrwnBabyDol" it lifted my spirit. I hate division with my beautiful sisters of the world and just because your light and bright doesn't change our issues along our journey. Stay beautiful, wise and Blessed.

Loved this video!! My Heaviest was 250 lbs. I maintained a 50lb weight loss for 10 years. My body slowly transformed. This year with all the extra time, I’ve lost another 25. I am loving the changes I feel and see. I do tend to get discouraged at times with my flabby arms and thighs. They are slowly shrinking. I personally don’t want any more surgeries. I’ve had way too many that I couldn’t avoid. Seeing this video gave me hope that with determination, I can loose the flabbiness.
Wow! This is the most uplifting, inspiring video I have watched! Exactly what I needed today thank you.
I really like you. No BS. Just honest, helpful inspiration. Thank you. I'm finally feeling like I'm ready to change to the vegan lifestyle I've been wanting after watching a few of your videos. Thank you, thank you.
I’m just starting my weight loss journey, this is so inspiring and just what I needed. Thank you so much, you’re godsent!!
Go you!
I to am just starting, I have fibro currently in a flare and back issues which this Monday I'm getting a nerve block. I have been steadily gaining due yio lack of exercise, poor sleep and portion size I think. I sure need a group like this for the weight loss and definitely self care.
Me too
@@BeautifulBrwnBabyDol i have to loose 35 pounds to get to a health weight will that leave me with loose skin. I am 32 years old please share ur imputs
Wow amazing transformation! Thanks for posting I’m encouraged I lost 68 pounds so far. Since February of this year 2020 .I really needed some good tips thanks 🙏🏽
I love this video. It's a holistic approach to taking care of yourself. So many video separate weight loss with just the basics. Thank you for this.
I’m so glad I came across you! I totally struggle with bat wings! I’m 65 and I’ve found lighter weights with more reps has helped a bit.
