My motivation to lose weight this year was to NOT be at the exact same place this time next year. The futility of making zero progress has been enough to keep me showing up consistently this year. Down 35 pounds so far. More to go and I will get there. I have never been so peaceful about losing weight before. Quiet motivation is powerful.
Congrats! "Quiet motivation is powerful" I love that!!!
I am so happy for you! Keeping going! 🖤🖤🖤
Totally agree . My weight loss has only been significant since I stopped a ‘low fat’ approach .
Thank you for your inspiration 🙂 I will be 60 next year and need to lose 6st. I had lost all hope until I subscribed to your channel. Thank you 🙂
I am 66 and Carla’s RUclips input has been the only thing which has started me on my weight loss journey. The idea of showing up for myself made sense . As does this content on weight loss myths . 12lb ‘s now and counting .
Go Marion 🙌🏼🙌🏼🤩
Best video of yours I have watched! I loved the way you smashed right through the negative self-talk that results from these myths! The one I suffered from was " Most people can't maintain the loss." I feared that, and it became a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Thank you Lynn! I think that’s why it’s so important we watch what we tell ourselves xx
No. 5: You have to be motivated to lose weight ❗️🙂 Since I'm listening to you on the RUclips channel, you became one of my favourite motivational personalities, which I always enjoy listening 😊💯👌
Your story is very inspiring ✨️ and your videos are so helpful and powerful 💝.
Thank you so much! It’s funny I would never thought of myself as a “motivational personality” im just a normal woman xx
@@HalfofCarla obviously we can see what you have achieved, before and after pics always encourage us but what you say is what inspires and motivates others to actually do somethings about their weight.
Carla, you are such an inspiring, honest & lovely person 💕 In march 2021 I was 83kg at the end of lockdown. That was when I showed up for myself & changed my lifestyle. I suffer chronic pain for nearly 10 yrs & with no access to swimming pools I piled on the weight. I then lost 30kg in 8 months & have kept it off. Calorie control, eating healthy unprocessed food, especially NO SUGAR & No refined carbohydrates. I do low carb foods such as sweet potatoes, vegetables, oats & local bakery granary bread. This has worked best for me. I eat anti inflammatory foods & have tea, coffee, water & milk to drink. As you say it’s about changing your lifestyle & being positive about yourself. You do have bad days & the negative naysayers but, it’s when you see how far you’ve come & how much better you look & feel. I love your channel as you keep me motivated & positive. Thank you X❤️
Amazing, thank you so much and what’s great long term lifestyle change 🖤🖤🖤
Thank you Carla! I always watch your videos & love how honest you are. You are such a lovely & inspirational person 🥰
I also had that moment when it ‘clicked’ in my mind & I did a total overhaul of my lifestyle. I had to make changes in all aspects of my life. I start a new job on Monday & feel elated about the new chapter in my life. I too love rock music & loved your ‘alternative’ capsule wardrobe! 🤩🤘🎸🥁❤️
X. Thank you for speaking truth. It is incredibly refreshing! I am EXHAUSTED from the clutter of misinformation from the "diet industry". Thank you for sharing your experiences --they have help construct my own behavioral framework. Been walking 1 hour a day (5am.. only have to watch out for bears. 😅)... counting calories, drinking beaucoup water and making better choices all around, fasting 18-6.
Think my next tattoo will be the word 'consistent' . ☕️
I think I may need that tattoo too!
Hi Carla! You are so right! I was with one of those big weight loss companies over the last 30 years and it is a money making proposition. I'm post menopausal and supposedly I shouldn't be able to lose weight easily. I'm doing Intermittent Fasting and am consistently losing 1.5-2 pounds a week. Difference? It's a lifestyle not a plan! X
Amazing 🤩
X that was so needed! It’s myth number one that I battle daily. I do love my butter on my avocado toast every morning, i just make sure to measure half a tbsp. I find the avo and butter keep me satisfied all morning 🥰
Makes sense, fat it more satiating 🖤
You are really mentally tough! I envy you. I’ve lost 108 lbs now with 10 to go. I literally DREAM about cheat days!! I always have. I do about one/week. It worries me sometimes that I’ll be terrible in maintenance. I still love those old foods that poisoned me throughout the years. 😬😬😬 X
X - Yeah, that slow weight loss idea is such a myth, especially when you lose weight eating normal, nutritious healthy foods in reasonable amounts. I suppose if you lose it with something like diet shakes and no real food, there might be a bit of truth to the lose it slow myth. I'm so glad you busted that myth because I'm on a mission to lose this excess weight quickly, healthily, and permanently! You are so inspirational! Thanks for all you do. Luv Ya❤!
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I get swept up in the weight loss marketing hype. Thank you for your honest words.
Marketing is designed to do that to us, you’re not alone, we all do, because we’re human xx
X You are so right about consistency, also known as discipline. Motivation waxes and wanes like the moon. Discipline is the sun coming up every day, even when it's cloudy. Thanks for your example and sharing all your knowledge.
I have a friend who has been a member of Weight Watchers for 30+ years! She has lost and regained the same pounds over and over again. Never maintained the loss for more than a few months. She has always hovered around 300 pounds. So sad
Like so many of us, I wish her peace to get off that horrible hamster wheel xx
X ❤ clear and precise! Really inspiring thank you ❤
❌fab, Carla! Thank you so much for saying the truths that those of us still struggling with this journey want and need to hear. You are proof that it IS possible. Bless you!!!
X Loved this - thank you so much.
Thanks Carla❤❤❤❤ it really helps❤❤❤
Brilliant as usual! Thank you.
X Hi Carla! I just found your channel a few days ago, I love you, I love what you are teaching people. I have learned so much from you in such a short time! My biggest breakthroughs (in my whole life of trying to lose weight) have come from watching your channel. You said, "If you can lose 1 pound you can lose 100" WOW, that is so TRUE!!! And the biggest WOW moment for me is that IF I do the right actions that get the RESULTS that I want, I WILL BE MOTIVATED!! WOW, Now for the last 3 days I wake up excited to make results that will give me motivation, and it's truly working. I haven't been this hopeful or inspired or motivated in many years. And for the 1st time in my life I KNOW I can make it all the way to my goal weight! I'm excited! I just want to thank you for putting this info out there for free, But YES I did sign up for BodySlim this September 20th. I'm already walking an hour a day and watching my food, I'm already losing weight. I've lost 6 pounds this week! BTW I'm 50 years old, and I don't believe the garbage that because I'm over 50 I can't lose weight, it's bullcrap! I'm losing weight at the same rate I did when I was in my 20's... I've lost 35 lbs this year... I have about 80 to go... But I'm so thankful God brought me to your channel. I had been praying so much for answers. God bless you Carla! Thank you so much for these videos!
Thank you so much Lorie and welcome!! Look at you ALREADY busting your own myths 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Love your reminders… thank you Xcxxcx
X Thanks so much!
X thank you !! ❤
X so motivating, especially gearing towards cold fall season
You become your motivation. I like that. 👏👏❤️
What an amazing video! Thanks soooo much! X
You go girl! Everything you have said here is true! Wonderful! 💜
X ❤🖤❤️ Carla, you are always a ray of sunshine and so motivating....thank you!!!!😊
X Love this!
Great tips Carla ×
X Thank you for all you do - I look forward to seeing you each week!
Thank you, that all makes so much sense....love the way you put it all together, weight loss for health is best....take care. 🤗🤗
Love this! #5 really hit home. It’s so true.
❤❤❤ X so much love to you, Carla! 🎉
I’m thrilled to see your videos. Consistency is key. ‘X’🖤🖤🖤
❤ XOXO great video! I learned from your videos that the calorie deficit is not going to be necessary forever. I have had many successful days if sticking to target on nutrition and activity and motivation is rampimg right up!
X Thank you for helping me throw out all the excuses I had
Big X ❤ thanks for this video , I made decisions to not be consistent few weeks back and I'm paying the price . Signed up for September to consistently reaching for my goal . Not too long now thank god . really needed this tbh X send love your way ❤
Thank you🥰💖
Great video, well done on your weightloss and management.
Completely random but have you ever done seasonal colour analysis? It's well worth doing to find a colour palette for clothing, hair, makeup etc that's most complementary. I think you are a true winter, which is why black suits you so well. Its well worth and fun to look into.

X Great video!
I watched then saved this to my play later list. That way I can listen again when I need to. ❤
🖤🖤🖤🖤

Your such an inspiration❤
Clear and precise as usual Carla 👌x
Thank you Marian, especially as people say I’m so long winded normally 😂😂😂
CONSISTENCY! X
X high fives to you. Wise words xx
X thank you
X looking forward to September Body Slims
So excited to start BodySlims and saw your photo in the intro email that went out last night. Thank you for sharing this with us! I sincerely appreciate how "real" and relatable you are. I know it costs you to be open to the world. Thank you.
That’s honestly one of the most beautiful comments thank you Laura “I know it costs you to be open to this world” It does but I love what I do so the positive outweighs the negative but I believe people don’t get that, so thank you xx
X!!! absolutely love this, and honestly just love hearing you talk. So much if your advice has been life changing, and your discussion about like motivation vs consistency has been HUGE for me.
I also love that you talk about how you still eat what feels normal to me, because it's a new normal. A lot of people who I used to follow who lost weight are like "I have an extremely strict diet and I work out for three hours a day and it's the worst but I have to do it" and it didn't feel worth it.
I'm slowly losing weight now, and I feel like it's mostly slow because I am still figuring out the brain side of things. And your talk about mental work has been so huge and important too!!!
Thank you for this and all your work
THank you so much for your comment Riley x
Xxx Wonderful video. I'm trying to bust the myth that it is impossible for women over 50 to lose weight. I refuse to believe that.
X I just passed 1 year of my weight loss journey. Been stuck for half of it (after losing over 75 lbs (goal is to lose 150)). The Nurse Practitioner that I'm working with tells me that my base metabolism would allow me to eat more than I do, but that's based on a number of assumptions (gender, age, BMI, etc.) rather than measuring me. I'm going to figure out how to get actual data for me!
I also have a video called “the middle” which might help xx
Tak!
Thank you so much Ellen xx
✖️wonderful wise words 💗
You’re just what I needed today! Thank you so much, your content has been invaluable to me on my journey. Love the eyebrows btw! When I started watching I was like “OMG she looks hot”! XOXO
Thank you so much Hafsah (apologies if that’s incorrect) I appreciate your comment and thank you, I think I look really hot right now 💋💅🏼
@@HalfofCarla 👏
I lost 1kg last month, put it back on the next month and near the beginning of this month I lost it again 😀. I got sabbotaged and de motivated. Then I was trying to psych myself up to get back on the diet. I've lost 12kg and I think I was just tired. I think I've switched to visualisation now and also 'headology', I ask myself if I'm happy to put on 2kg and be obese again? "NO" Would I rather be 75kg? "YES!" hehe That's all I've got. I can't look at the next 12kg I need to lose, it's too off putting. Baby steps, baby goals. Next goal is 75kg. I'm really not confident I can do it, but I would rather do it than be more or the same next monht.
You can do it. Believe in yourself. I know it's not easy to do but it will make a difference just saying to yourself that you WILL get where you want to be.
✖ Great myth busting!
I agree, my doctor is just happy when I'm losing weight, he doesn't care how long it takes, lol. I've been trying to push myself but my body only seems to be dropping it as fast as it's willing anyway. 😆
X Sometimes you just have to take the Nike approach: Just Do It!❤
So so so true. Liking is optional cx
❌❤️❤️❤️❤️love your videos
Your very very inspirational hun xxwish ui cold try bodyslims but its just expensive for me atm xim 63 😢❤❤❤
I’m sorry to hear that Jane, I understand. Hopefully from the content I’ve shared there are steps you can take anyway xx
❤❤❤
Really helpful. But I understood that if you shed much weight in a short time it takes a short time to get it back on. Also because your body tries to avoid starvation and halts metabolism.
I know many people besides me for whom this was also a myth xx
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
In this 13 month did you not go on vacation or even a weekend tripp? If you did, how did you follow your food schedule?
I’d be curious to know how many calories you allowed yourself?
X (welcome home. Please share your New York experience with us.). ❤❤
It’s coming next week 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Carla, I'd love to know if/how your menstrual cycles have changed (if so) through this process? I'm noticing for the first time since starting BS, my cycles are much longer.. Did you notice anything? We're around the same age so wondering..
I didn’t notice any difference to be honest, only that pms symptoms were nearly non existent xx
