    I've noticed that a lot of folks with EDs or issues with food gravitate towards these types of eating channels or mukbang channels for many different reasons so thanks for bringing them up 🙏 very easy to fall into unhealthy habits and a bad relationship with food because of what society pushes so making sure that your yourself are listening to your body and minds needs is so much more important than listening to what folks on the outside say you should be doing.

      I have a question, don't all taco bell's have the ingredients to still make it though? Even if it's not on the menu, can't it be made if requested? For example, the chili cheese burrito is not on the menu, but i can still get it, you would think the same would go for the grilled stuffed XL

    • @muemuemue
      @muemuemue 4 года назад +1

      @@sirtonymontana83 Yea they can make it. The problem is they cant ring it up on the register so you would have to do a similiar item. Add the ingrediants. And potentially grill it. So it might cost an extra dollar or so compared to the old price

    Hi Erik! I love how raw and honest you are in this video. The message you delivered was really perfectly made. In 2017, I hit rock bottom and was weighing almost 200 lbs... I made the change and was able to lose 55 lbs in 11 months (it wasn't planned, it sort of happened). until I reached 135 LBS and all of the sudden that was not enough anymore... I wanted to be 120 LBS even though I was already lean as hell, it just wasn't enough. the next few years I tried being on the "bulk" and "lean" cycle again and as I reach 26 this year, one thing my personal journey has thought me is that no matter what the scale says, the love has to come from within me. It is something I struggle with daily, as I have gained weight again (40 LBS) and it's hard to come into terms with it. Right now I am just trying to live a balanced lifestyle and be happy with what I have now and make progress not strive for perfection. I had to comment just because your message really resonated with me. I am glad to see that you are genuinely happy with yourself and are able to maintain a balanced lifestyle and continue in your journey. Greetings from Florida! I hope you and your little family are healthy and safe. Take care. :)
