Bree, you've become one of my biggest inspirations in such a short time, and not an 'inspiration' like One Direction or something, but seriously, you inspire me to better my life en love it even more, and youre my motivation to work out more, haha. I adore your advice and talk videos so so much, just wanted to say that i love you, just like so many others, and you should be so proud of yourself, maybe you don't know it but youre this big inspiration not only for me but for soo many girls all over the world. ♥
Thank you for acknowledging the fact that youtube, instagram, etc. don't always generate an accurate picture of a person's life. I think what a lot of people forget is that all the beauty and health gurus on here activeley choose what to show and what to keep to themselves and so it often seems like they never get side-tracked or waver in their healthy life style, and that they live these magical lives. And I find that really problematic when people start comparing themselves and their lives to what they see on youtube etc. Glad you're so honest. :)
Cambria, I have watched this video countless times- everytime I get into a state about my appearance. and I can't tell you how much of an amazing help this video has been to me-so thank you. Today I was in a changing room trying on a pair of jeans and they just wouldn't fit- I broke down in tears. Later I got my new passport photos taken in a photo booth and when I got them I couldn't even look at them- I felt disgusted at my face... So I sat down in front of the mirror tonight and looked at myself, tearing my hair out and in tears about how much I hated myself like how most other days end... In the end it doesn't matter how beautiful are- who made a difference in the world by having the 'perfect' hair, slim legs, flat stomach or toned arms? Instead, yes lets take care of our bodies as they are a gift from God, but more importantly lets be compassionate, kind, loving, generous, merciful and use the time God has blessed us with on Earth, not obessing over our apperance, but doing what God created us to do- glorifying him in all thatwe do, serving him day by day and that is where we find REAL joy in life.
Hey Cambria, I'm not a christian, my parents didn't raised me like that and for me its hard to believe like you do, but thank you so so so much for this video. I'm from germany and I'm having a really hard time finding and loving myself but you're such an inspiration for me - you are so positive and I reallly love your smile. :) I know this video is quite old, but it's 2 am in the morning and I was overthinking. Now I'm so motivated to get up in a few hours to finally get some things done.. Sorry, if my englisch isn't correct at all and it's kind of messed up. Wishing you all the best!
I wasn't either, but then God came into my life and just basically saved me and has taken me into His arms. He will do the same to you, just trust Him, and that He loves you so much as His daughter! Much love, 💖
I dont think that the 8.50 minutes was a waste of time or because it was a intro, It really helped me stop feeling guilty about what I eat, and not punishing myself about it, I felt so much better because you were right, and I believe that the experience makes us experts, lately I have also felt bad about my body, I mean people have so many expectations about your body when it's summer, and of course I will treet my body like my baby from now on, thank you, and this video is REALLY about health!
Cambrian I can not express how much I love you! You are a Christian, you live a healthy lifestyle, you are positive and happy, and many more things. I love you so much and I haven't even met you!
the start of the video hit home and made me cry ..and thats a lot for me and my current eating disorder.. Thankyou, you may have opened my eyes to a new chapter..
You are an inspiration Cambria. I've dealth with similar issues and hearing this today helped me so much cause I know exactly how you feel. You are absolutely beautiful!!! God made you YOU. There is no one like you and you are Unique. Thanks for inspiring so many of us. Society and media really take a toll on the lives of so many girls and women and its time to put an end to this! SELF-LOVE is so important! :) SO THANK YOU AGAIN! Sensing some love from Montreal, Canada. Ciao Bella.:)
Bree, you're the reason why I love the way my body looks now. You make me so happy, I love you Bree! You inspire so many people, and I am one. You make my day so much brighter, all I have to do is watch your videos, and it makes me want to continue my journey, but not only my journey, my whole life, you made me not give up in life, grades, mentally, physically. YOU are my inspiration. I adore you.
Cambria, your message is so beautiful and inspiring. Watching this video made me tear up. All the media gives us crazy images of what we "should" look like. But everybody isn't a size 2. We are all unique and different, but we all are beautiful. Thank you so much for inspiring me and helping me through some hard times. Keep on going girl- and don't let anyone bring you down! Love you!!💕
this made me cry so hard.. God bless your soul thank you for being you and being open and honest with us. you're amazing and i hope your doing well. god has such big plans for you
You are honestly my favorite RUclipsr... and I like a lot of RUclipsrs. No one on YT motivates me like you do. Your videos make me so so happy. Thank You. God Bless You!♡
I could watch this video over and over. Your youtube channel will definitely be number one on my list to watch when I'm feeling down. I'm suffering from incredibly bad anxiety which is from a lot of things to something you made a point of in your video is being disappointed from not living life styles that I constantly see on social media. I just want to thank you for opening my eyes and making me realise that I don't have to be like everyone else. I just need to live how it works for me and I need to be happy the way I am now. Not the way I am living a fully organic, vegan lifestyle; drinking my smoothies and documenting my 'awesome' life. You're an extremely positive and reassuring person. Exactly the kind of video I was looking for right now. Thanks again Cambria!
I saw this video when it first uploaded and I remember watching for the first time. All these years later I still come back to watch it for encouragement. You’ve been so inspirational for me growing up. Now, we’re both adults and you continue to inspire and encourage me with all of your videos. You are so appreciated! Thank you, Cambria, for all that you do.
The best 'love yourself' type of video I've seen by a youtuber so far.. I've seen other youtubers make these kinds of videos, except some preach a hardcore workout regime. While that's good and all, it's given me the impression that working out and seeing physically change would make me love myself. I've been on the heavier side all my life, so watching those other youtube videos had a spiraling negative effect on me. Tysm for this lovely video--it's reminded me of what's truly important.
49 people have dislike this... I dont get it... I mean its not much but still how can someone disslike this?! This video is so beautyful in so many ways
Getting on the internet and talking about this topic to us takes a lot of courage..your truely a hero, and a great person, i dont know you but i know that u sincerley care and are possibly changing girls lifes out there, you inspire me even more to be caring, thoughtful, and giving. Thank you bree, keep doing what you do best, God bless.
This video made me cry.. I hate myself more than anything. I suck at everything I do, I am ugly and fat, my parents are all the time disappointed on me, and even when I'm trying to love myself and accept the fact that I'l never be "perfect" I can't stop those voices in my head. I've been bullied, and that's where everything started from. Now I am in a new school, with new friends, but I just can't forget everything that they said to me. and.. what if people actually mean what they say? what if all those things are the truth and I am just too stupid to see it? But I still have to act like everything is okay, like I'm happy all the time, because if I show how I actually feel, I wouldn't have any friends anymore and everyone would think that I want them to notice me. And whatever I think, or whatever I do, I can't stop hating myself. Sorry.. I had to tell someone :(
AHH!!! I LOVE your comment sooo much! Seriously, thank you for commenting! I don't like when anything is sugar coated, and dealing with self image is a real thing. You all are my friends, I really love ALL of you! I would love to meet you one day too!
Cambria, I have been a viewer of yours for a few years now. Even when I first subscribed, I could tell that you were a wonderful and positive person. For the past year or so, I have been trying to love myself and take better care of my body. Loosing weight is so hard for me, and eating is such a big problem. I just wanted to let you know how much of an inspiration you are to me..I wish I could have friends as great as you are! Thank you for making videos like this.. I wish you all the best!
You are honestly so inspiring bree,I can't imagine the amount of lives you have saved/made feel better with this video. You are truly amazing and shouldn't think less of yourself
+Pikacute that's not true. you can love other persons deeply while you absolutely hate yourself. I think you meant: you have to love yourself before someone else can love you
+ecee i really dislike that statement. it's telling people they are unlovable because of not being able to fully appreciate and care for themselves. it doesnt really help anyone, does it?
Your videos are literally so inspirational. I was used to HATE everything about myself, but slowly & surely I came out of that hole I was in..& watching this video has helped me even more! & I hope it will help inspire & teach others to love themselves for who God made them & not listen to what society says you should like.
I'm personally very healthy and string and thin. But if your not, don't be sad.. God made you that way for a reason I don't know the reason but He does! People can be mean and even you can make yourself sad by saying I'm fat! Or I'm ugly! Everyone is beautiful😀😉
Cambria, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your videos and words of wisdom. I will be 29 years old at the end of this month and your videos have inspired me to make smart, healthy changes to my lifestyle (which I need, because I will be getting married next summer!) Adults can always learn from those younger than us, and you have inspired those older than you. Thank you, keep up the awesome work, and I look forward to more wonderful videos!
im SUCH an insecure person and always have been. iv'e always been called small tiny too skinny or anorexic. and I NEVER thought i would be good enough. so THANK you for being here and not being one of those fake, perfect, or plastic beauty gurus who don't take these issues to heart and don't adress them.
i wanted to cry in the begining i've felt like that so much it feels so real you are so encourgaging person you've lifted me up in so many ways we've never met i feel like i know you alot hope that dose'nt sound funny we're all real girls and it's awesome that God has put you in a place to be able to talk to others i love how real you are and your inner beauty i love you the way you are and the way God made it able to share things like this videos like this mean so much to me
Oh my goodness! I am turning 14 tomorrow and almost all of my 13 years I have hated myself for being overweight. Always being bigger than my friends (Who by the way are skinny minnys) I just sat here and laughed and cried! You are such an inspiration and what makes it even better is that you are a follower of Christ! I have only seen a few of your videos but I already love you! I would love to meet you some day. Please remember me in your prayers. God bless!
Thank you for this. I have started to have suicidal thoughts because I'm too skinny. I get bullied for it. I need to learn love me! I am beautiful! I am NOT too skinny! But most of all I deserve to be alive!! Thank you so much for this video! I am going to try to learn I'm perfect the way I am! :)
Keep on the right path! PS. Do not try drugs like Ayahuasca (like it's recommended in the comment above). All you need is God and yourself. You CAN overcome it!
+Nomenissa Hales Sorry but please don't insult others religion. Feel free to share your opinion but please don't say things like "There's no God in the sky" I'm a Christian and that was highly offensive to me.
it's like you just read my mind, been eating so much junk for the past week and i did feel bad and i felt a lot of hatred towards myself. watching this reminds me to love myself again. thank you so much you are such an inspiration!
I'm going to be completely honest about me, I'm going to be embarrassed after I say all of this. . . I'm 12yrs old and 140+ pounds... I play Minecraft, Sims 3, and Agar.io all day.. Every day. I have a treadmill.. I run 1 mile like once a week because I get bored and tired so easily. I'm never motivated, sometimes I cry myself to sleep because I see all of these girls around me with boyfriends and skinny bodies.. I have 1 friend from 6th grade and was bullied 2nd-4th grade and have yet to tell anyone about it. I'm going to middle school this year and that 1 friend I may never see again, due to class schedules. My family is kind of poor, and can't do anything about it or go anywhere. My mom cooks a lot, which means I eat a lot... I feel like I have just failed at life and will never be happy. Skinny = impossible for me. Like I will never get a boyfriend because of my weight or looks. I've been called gross, to kill myself by drinking bleach, I'm fat, ugly, embarrassing to be around, never get invited to parties or to just hang out. I have thought of suicide honestly but I won't suicide because I was brought into this world for some reason... I'm still waiting to find out that reason. I know most of you are going to comment "You just want attention" that's what everyone says.. I would know... But I don't I just wanted to share my story.. (I cried while typing this)
You are so inspiring. I honestly have been in such a low point in my life and still need to work on loving myself. This showed me that I'm not alone and that it's possible to end up being happy with your body no matter what size you are. You are truly inspirational.
I think this is THE BEST video I have ever seen on RUclips. You are one of the only people who had the courage to stand out and say this and the fact that you are actually admitting to being imperfect only help others realize that no one is truly perfect and I thank you for that :) so, thank you, truly.
I just cried throughout almost this entire video, I struggle so much with my body or my "image" and you just made me realize how much I need to just stop and love myself... I never comment on youtube videos and I just couldn't hold back this time. Thank you for this video you don't know how many girls you're helping
Right now I'm feeling better about myself than I felt in a long time and I just want to thank you for that. You gave me the most amazing gift. Please keep doing this kind of videos because I know I'm not the only person feeling this way. Thank you for everything.
This is the first video I've ever watched of yours and I just wanted to take a moment to comment on how beautiful, well spoken, smiley, and to-the-point you are! It's so great to come across a young youtuber who doesn't say the word "like" ever 5 seconds. You are also super inspiring in the way you say what you do. It's really encouraging and uplifting to hear someone say something that they truly believe in and stand behind. It makes me believe it! Can't wait to go watch more of your videos! :) Xo
i simply adore thoughts of people like yours, not only people would be that more happy, i think the world would be more better when sharing these thoughts, when people listen to their heart& find their self in being their self it's all about attitude & sight of things!!
you just inspired me to forget about the bad comments on the internet and focus on myself.... the weekly food/exercise planner is a really good idea! you're so awesome. thank you!!!
This is so amazing, you should be a motivational speaker. I have just recently started to love my self. I did the same thing as you, comparing myself to others, but I realized that I'm not them. And I never will be. I'm still working on it but I'm becoming happier with myself. Yeah there's times when I still get down but it's not as dark. More people should make videos like this, instead of showing how to cover up flaws, embrace them. You are such an inspiration. Thank you
This video honestly made me cry....I've always been the person to put myself down when i look into the mirror, I try to motivate myself to exercise and to eat healthier but i just cant get into the habit, so far watching a couple of your videos has really helped me in so many ways! Thank you so much :)
That was one of the most real videos I have watched in a very long time. Not only have you changed my point of view on my body, but I am actually starting to like myself again. Thank you for that
This video brought tears to my eyes. You are such an amazing person. Everything you said has made me feel so good about myself. I think every teenage girl who has ever hated themselves for anything should watch this.
Cambria, you are the most inspirational RUclipsr out there. This and many of your other videos have inspired me to do something. To look at myself and feel love rather than hatred. I've definitely struggled with loving my body and myself in general, and I just want to thank you so much. You are someone girls can look up to as a role model. I'm so glad I found you when I did! I love your videos so very much! Keep on going!
I am 16 years old , 1,67 m and i was about 70 kg 3 weeks before !! One day I came out of my shower and i just thougth in 1,5 year i got 8 kg because i moved out to other country i lost control of my life ! I told myself that you know what you are ok with your body cause you see it everyday so you learn how to love it but what about your life style ! so i got out starting running and thinking .. all the youtube video helped me to learn not to give up with out trying enough. Today a month after the how new life style routine started i am 67kg and no i am not eating less i am eating just healthier ! its like my body and my metabolism turned on again and i am feeling nice and fresh! so thank you !
its not the first time im hearing the things you said. honestly, i feel i heard them 1000 times before. But through you i finally understand them. thank you so much. You are really helping me. :)
So, I just found your channel and I'm so thankful that I did because I've been dealing with a binge eating disorder as well. It was always so hard to find someone to relate to and now I feel like I'm not alone. Thank you for sharing your story! It means a lot to me.
your friends and family are just so lucky to have you and i hope that you are realize what good of a person you are and are proud of yourself, cause i think at least most of your other viewrs would agree that you are an incredible person, so real and honest, and we would be happy to have you in our lives
I love your vulnerability in this video, you seem to true and sincere and it feels great to see you helping others just by talking. It's like you are just having a conversations with friends and people you care about. Thank you for your motivation. Much Love and strength sent from Phoenix :)
This came at the PERFECT time for me! Thank you so much! I have been binge eatting for the past 2 weeks and I just need to stop. I have lost 65 pounds, but I'm gradually gaining it back from bingeing, its making me feel so terrible about myself,even though i am now a normal weight. Im so stressed about looking good for spring break its just making me binge. I just want to say Thank You SO much this video has really helped me! You are such an inspiration to me! :)
You seriously just made me cry. Thank you for making us girls feel that it is normal to feel insecure once in awhile.. But at the end of the day, we should learn to accept the way we look now and just love the way we are. Thank you so much for this video. :)
I'm not sure if this video was recommended for me or if someone I followed had just happened to like/comment on it but either way, thank you RUclips for leading me to find such an inspirational person and thank YOU for making this video and having the strength to share your concerns about yourself and getting yourself out of such a difficult place and learning from it. I could not have found a better first video from someone. Thank you so much, you truly are an inspiration
I'm actually crying right now. This video is the most inspirational thing I've ever seen and it really hit me hard tonight. This is something that I've been struggling with since I can remember. I constantly compare myself to people and I don't know why. I know I can't just stop doing, but I hope I can start to see that I'm alright too. Thank you for this, so much.
I just want to take a second to thank you Cambria! I have felt bad about my body image throughout my entire life. Ever since I was young, I didn't think I was pretty enough or popular enough or skinny enough. But you have seriously changed my life with just two or three of your videos. I hope you know what an impact you have had on me (And I'm assuming MANY others). Thank you thank you thank you!
Cambria I LOVE U SO MUCH. you have inspired me so much to love myself and live a happy life. I'm battling an eating disorder right now and I can't even tell you how much your videos have helped me. I have cried over your videos because they make me feel so happy and so inspired. Thank you ily
Omg I had that similar journal! I like how you mention being productive, basically keep your mind busy to get rid of bad thoughts. Thanks for your video :)
This is such a mature and well executed video. I'm glad to see you working through your hard times, and I'm glad you decided to share this with us. I struggle with a lot of these things every day, and it's always helpful to not feel alone. Praying for you Cambria!
I also have trouble finding clothes that fit me right, and most of the time I just give up because it is too hard. I agree with you saying that there is no "perfect body", although many people don't always think that. Trying to make yourself skinnier to fit into society is not the answer. Treat your body right. I don't always treat my body right, but that's something that I struggle with and I can admit that. I don't always eat healthy and I rarely exercise because I don't think I need to.
i started crying when i watched this, cause the beginning of the video was me tonight. thank you so much for this. i cant even put how much you inspire me into words. i love youu
Thank you for making this, Bree. I truly appreciate that you are able to not sugar coat everything in terms of being true to yourself and saying it how it is. I totally understand about being busy and I'm sure we as your viewers (friends) ;) understand that life gets hard, etc. Anyway, I love you for making this! Your like a best friend that I've never met and would love to meet one day!! :)
i just found your channel and i have to say, you have probably become my favourite youtuber right now. you have been such an inspiration to me and so many other people. all your videos are so helpful and make me feel good about myself. you motivate me to change and work out but you also help me love myself for who i am and not hate me just because i don't look 'perfect'. thank you so so much!
i just want to let you know that you are so so inspirational to me, not only to get healthy but to enjoy life and to acknowledge that joy is a choice a decition, im not christian (i was but i dont belive anymore) however i deeply care for you for some reason and i wish you the best. Thank you for teaching me to be happy and for shearing your widsmon, expreriences and joy with us (btw im sorry for my spelling im not a native english speaker)
Hi Cambria, you are such a wonderful and amazing person! Whenever I feel down, you are the first youtuber that comes to mind. What do I do when I feel down? I turn to your videos. I like them a lot. You are right, taking care of myself is important. Probably more important than taking care of my dog. Self care and faith comes first. Keep it up. I ♡ Cambria Joy. Way to go girl. I am so happy for you and Bo. You guys are really good for each other. Thanks.
ok so i'm in the middle of this video and i'm like, i love you breeeee :') thank you so much for being as you are! you are one of the most beautiful person i've ever seen and i'm also talking about your inside i mean you are so incredible and i just feel like omg you are my inspiration and my example :') i needed this video right now in my life and i'm only in the middle of it and i'm thinking 'i'm glad you exist bree'. thank you so much, i mean it. we love you bree ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
You help me so much... I am on a path to stop binge eating! Your binge eating video really helped me it made me cry in a good way it let me realize that having a little bit of body fat is ok! You are amazing ... I feel fat every day and I wish I was better sometimes I really really hate myself and I just always want to compare myself :( thank you! For every thing!!
You have really inspired me by not comparing myself to other girls and loving my body. You have really opened my eyes to what I was doing. I should be happy about myself because God created me like this. You are so inspiring to me thank you so much :)
thank you so much for making this Cambria i could tell it was really heartfelt. tbh i actually do consider u to be one of my best friends. i feel like you are there when no one else is, even though not physically. whenever i feel alone i watch your blog and just laugh with u or listen to what u have to say thank you for being there
Sometimes I just need to keep things private, but thank you so much for caring about me! :) Honestly a lot was happening with my family, and just going through personal struggles. Hope this answers your question! :)
This is incredible. You probably won't see this but this is ridiculously encouraging for me. I am recovering from anorexia and am finally back at a healthy weight, my only issue now is my mind. Everything you said in this video is completely correct about comparing yourself to others. This is so inspiring and I love it. I would actually like to talk to someone like you in person to discuss things as most people don't talk about EDs.
I really wanted to thank you because you helped me out of a dark place in my life I was having a hard time. I would only wear pants and sweaters and I refused to wear anything else. I even didnt want to take showers because that ment I had to see my self with out the sweater. I barely ate and when I did I would go cry because I felt disgusted with my self. Even my own family rarely saw me happy. An thanx to you I've come out of that dark spot. Thank You! :)
Thank you so much for making this video:) I've been in a really dark place recently; I've been constantly comparing myself to my seemingly perfect bestfriend for a while now and you just inspired me not to do that anymore! I finally see all the things that make me shine and that I should embrace. Even though I'm still not perfect, I feel better than I have in a long time
This was such a great video! Its so nice to see someone be real and honest and remind girls (and boys alike) what is truly important & that's loving yourself! It's refreshing to see someone sending out such a positive message & im feeling inspired to continue to learn to love myself. I'm glad you were able to take some time to focus on you, everybody needs that once in a while & you're right, you're loyal subscribers would never hold it against you! Thanks for this video girl! xo.
Omg this video is absolutely beautiful. I'm literally gonna do all those steps you showed, starting with cleaning my room (: Thanks! You're flawless! And you're so right- sometimes life just takes away time for things we wanna do. Life is just like that.
This is amazing! It's the most real video I have ever seen, and has so much emotion behind it. I don't think it's healthy to go crazy with your fitness regime, take a break, and definitely don't force it just because you feel like you have to. Don't feel guilty about having a slice of cake, it's ok. Everything is bad for you if you do/have it too much, moderation is essential to a healthy life style! Good luck with everything you are going through, and God bless
this is the best video i have ever watched. thank you so much for inspiring me and all the other girls out there to just love ourselves despite our imperfections. you're amazing and have truly made a difference in all our lives.
Bree, you've become one of my biggest inspirations in such a short time, and not an 'inspiration' like One Direction or something, but seriously, you inspire me to better my life en love it even more, and youre my motivation to work out more, haha. I adore your advice and talk videos so so much, just wanted to say that i love you, just like so many others, and you should be so proud of yourself, maybe you don't know it but youre this big inspiration not only for me but for soo many girls all over the world. ♥
Thank you for acknowledging the fact that youtube, instagram, etc. don't always generate an accurate picture of a person's life. I think what a lot of people forget is that all the beauty and health gurus on here activeley choose what to show and what to keep to themselves and so it often seems like they never get side-tracked or waver in their healthy life style, and that they live these magical lives. And I find that really problematic when people start comparing themselves and their lives to what they see on youtube etc. Glad you're so honest. :)
Cambria, I have watched this video countless times- everytime I get into a state about my appearance. and I can't tell you how much of an amazing help this video has been to me-so thank you. Today I was in a changing room trying on a pair of jeans and they just wouldn't fit- I broke down in tears. Later I got my new passport photos taken in a photo booth and when I got them I couldn't even look at them- I felt disgusted at my face... So I sat down in front of the mirror tonight and looked at myself, tearing my hair out and in tears about how much I hated myself like how most other days end... In the end it doesn't matter how beautiful are- who made a difference in the world by having the 'perfect' hair, slim legs, flat stomach or toned arms? Instead, yes lets take care of our bodies as they are a gift from God, but more importantly lets be compassionate, kind, loving, generous, merciful and use the time God has blessed us with on Earth, not obessing over our apperance, but doing what God created us to do- glorifying him in all thatwe do, serving him day by day and that is where we find REAL joy in life.
Awwww! Don't feel that way!!! You are perfect just the way you are!!!
Hey Cambria, I'm not a christian, my parents didn't raised me like that and for me its hard to believe like you do, but thank you so so so much for this video. I'm from germany and I'm having a really hard time finding and loving myself but you're such an inspiration for me - you are so positive and I reallly love your smile. :) I know this video is quite old, but it's 2 am in the morning and I was overthinking. Now I'm so motivated to get up in a few hours to finally get some things done.. Sorry, if my englisch isn't correct at all and it's kind of messed up. Wishing you all the best!
I wasn't either, but then God came into my life and just basically saved me and has taken me into His arms. He will do the same to you, just trust Him, and that He loves you so much as His daughter! Much love, 💖
I dont think that the 8.50 minutes was a waste of time or because it was a intro, It really helped me stop feeling guilty about what I eat, and not punishing myself about it, I felt so much better because you were right, and I believe that the experience makes us experts, lately I have also felt bad about my body, I mean people have so many expectations about your body when it's summer, and of course I will treet my body like my baby from now on, thank you, and this video is REALLY about health!
Cambrian I can not express how much I love you! You are a Christian, you live a healthy lifestyle, you are positive and happy, and many more things. I love you so much and I haven't even met you!
the start of the video hit home and made me cry ..and thats a lot for me and my current eating disorder.. Thankyou, you may have opened my eyes to a new chapter..
You are an inspiration Cambria. I've dealth with similar issues and hearing this today helped me so much cause I know exactly how you feel. You are absolutely beautiful!!! God made you YOU. There is no one like you and you are Unique. Thanks for inspiring so many of us. Society and media really take a toll on the lives of so many girls and women and its time to put an end to this! SELF-LOVE is so important! :) SO THANK YOU AGAIN! Sensing some love from Montreal, Canada.
Ciao Bella.:)
Bree, you're the reason why I love the way my body looks now. You make me so happy, I love you Bree! You inspire so many people, and I am one. You make my day so much brighter, all I have to do is watch your videos, and it makes me want to continue my journey, but not only my journey, my whole life, you made me not give up in life, grades, mentally, physically. YOU are my inspiration. I adore you.
Cambria, your message is so beautiful and inspiring. Watching this video made me tear up. All the media gives us crazy images of what we "should" look like. But everybody isn't a size 2. We are all unique and different, but we all are beautiful. Thank you so much for inspiring me and helping me through some hard times. Keep on going girl- and don't let anyone bring you down! Love you!!💕
this made me cry so hard.. God bless your soul thank you for being you and being open and honest with us. you're amazing and i hope your doing well. god has such big plans for you
You are honestly my favorite RUclipsr... and I like a lot of RUclipsrs. No one on YT motivates me like you do. Your videos make me so so happy. Thank You. God Bless You!♡
I'm so glad I found your channel! You are so inspiring and fun to watch. Keep being you ILY :)
I could watch this video over and over. Your youtube channel will definitely be number one on my list to watch when I'm feeling down. I'm suffering from incredibly bad anxiety which is from a lot of things to something you made a point of in your video is being disappointed from not living life styles that I constantly see on social media. I just want to thank you for opening my eyes and making me realise that I don't have to be like everyone else. I just need to live how it works for me and I need to be happy the way I am now. Not the way I am living a fully organic, vegan lifestyle; drinking my smoothies and documenting my 'awesome' life. You're an extremely positive and reassuring person. Exactly the kind of video I was looking for right now. Thanks again Cambria!
Don't know why but this video made me cry! It's so honest and I loved it! Thank you 💕
I saw this video when it first uploaded and I remember watching for the first time. All these years later I still come back to watch it for encouragement. You’ve been so inspirational for me growing up. Now, we’re both adults and you continue to inspire and encourage me with all of your videos. You are so appreciated! Thank you, Cambria, for all that you do.
I started crying from the first 30 seconds 😭 you're perf
I'm thankful you watched :)
This is honestly one of the best videos I’ve seen on RUclips so far.
The best 'love yourself' type of video I've seen by a youtuber so far.. I've seen other youtubers make these kinds of videos, except some preach a hardcore workout regime. While that's good and all, it's given me the impression that working out and seeing physically change would make me love myself. I've been on the heavier side all my life, so watching those other youtube videos had a spiraling negative effect on me. Tysm for this lovely video--it's reminded me of what's truly important.
49 people have dislike this...
I dont get it... I mean its not much but still how can someone disslike this?!
This video is so beautyful in so many ways
Getting on the internet and talking about this topic to us takes a lot of courage..your truely a hero, and a great person, i dont know you but i know that u sincerley care and are possibly changing girls lifes out there, you inspire me even more to be caring, thoughtful, and giving. Thank you bree, keep doing what you do best, God bless.
I feel like a need a friend like you
Grace! I miss you SO much! Like you have no idea! Thank you for watching lovely! xx
This video made me cry.. I hate myself more than anything. I suck at everything I do, I am ugly and fat, my parents are all the time disappointed on me, and even when I'm trying to love myself and accept the fact that I'l never be "perfect" I can't stop those voices in my head. I've been bullied, and that's where everything started from. Now I am in a new school, with new friends, but I just can't forget everything that they said to me. and.. what if people actually mean what they say? what if all those things are the truth and I am just too stupid to see it? But I still have to act like everything is okay, like I'm happy all the time, because if I show how I actually feel, I wouldn't have any friends anymore and everyone would think that I want them to notice me. And whatever I think, or whatever I do, I can't stop hating myself. Sorry.. I had to tell someone :(
AHH!!! I LOVE your comment sooo much! Seriously, thank you for commenting! I don't like when anything is sugar coated, and dealing with self image is a real thing. You all are my friends, I really love ALL of you! I would love to meet you one day too!
Love your posts, truly inspiring! Helping me get through hard times
Cambria, I have been a viewer of yours for a few years now. Even when I first subscribed, I could tell that you were a wonderful and positive person. For the past year or so, I have been trying to love myself and take better care of my body. Loosing weight is so hard for me, and eating is such a big problem. I just wanted to let you know how much of an inspiration you are to me..I wish I could have friends as great as you are! Thank you for making videos like this.. I wish you all the best!
you are so inspiring. you literally dried my tears! ;.)
yup same here
You are honestly so inspiring bree,I can't imagine the amount of lives you have saved/made feel better with this video. You are truly amazing and shouldn't think less of yourself
You have to learn to love yourself before you can love anyone else
+Pikacute I wish it were easier done than said!
+Pikacute that's not true. you can love other persons deeply while you absolutely hate yourself. I think you meant: you have to love yourself before someone else can love you
+ecee i really dislike that statement. it's telling people they are unlovable because of not being able to fully appreciate and care for themselves. it doesnt really help anyone, does it?
Your videos are literally so inspirational. I was used to HATE everything about myself, but slowly & surely I came out of that hole I was in..& watching this video has helped me even more! & I hope it will help inspire & teach others to love themselves for who God made them & not listen to what society says you should like.
I'm personally very healthy and string and thin. But if your not, don't be sad.. God made you that way for a reason I don't know the reason but He does! People can be mean and even you can make yourself sad by saying I'm fat! Or I'm ugly! Everyone is beautiful😀😉
Cambria, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your videos and words of wisdom. I will be 29 years old at the end of this month and your videos have inspired me to make smart, healthy changes to my lifestyle (which I need, because I will be getting married next summer!) Adults can always learn from those younger than us, and you have inspired those older than you. Thank you, keep up the awesome work, and I look forward to more wonderful videos!
This is PERFECT
im SUCH an insecure person and always have been. iv'e always been called small tiny too skinny or anorexic. and I NEVER thought i would be good enough. so THANK you for being here and not being one of those fake, perfect, or plastic beauty gurus who don't take these issues to heart and don't adress them.
I love you! You remind me so much of my real life best friend. I feel like in a way you are my online best friend.:)
i wanted to cry in the begining i've felt like that so much it feels so real
you are so encourgaging person you've lifted me up in so many ways we've never met i feel like i know you alot hope that dose'nt sound funny
we're all real girls and it's awesome that God has put you in a place to be able to talk to others i love how real you are and your inner beauty
i love you the way you are and the way God made it able to share things like this
videos like this mean so much to me
My inspiration of life!!
i'm from brasil
Oh my goodness! I am turning 14 tomorrow and almost all of my 13 years I have hated myself for being overweight. Always being bigger than my friends (Who by the way are skinny minnys) I just sat here and laughed and cried! You are such an inspiration and what makes it even better is that you are a follower of Christ! I have only seen a few of your videos but I already love you! I would love to meet you some day. Please remember me in your prayers. God bless!
Thank you for this. I have started to have suicidal thoughts because I'm too skinny. I get bullied for it. I need to learn love me! I am beautiful! I am NOT too skinny! But most of all I deserve to be alive!! Thank you so much for this video! I am going to try to learn I'm perfect the way I am! :)
stay strong! i am in the same position like you... but you know what? we can do this!!!!!
Keep on the right path! PS. Do not try drugs like Ayahuasca (like it's recommended in the comment above). All you need is God and yourself. You CAN overcome it!
+Nomenissa Hales Sorry but please don't insult others religion. Feel free to share your opinion but please don't say things like "There's no God in the sky" I'm a Christian and that was highly offensive to me.
+MISSmegatronSMITH Thank you! :) I'm learning day by day.
+Smilte Bagdonaite Thank you! Stay strong!!!!
I am thankful that you watched :)
Everyone's told me to start loving myself since I've been through a breakup, I still don't know how )-:
I hope you're okay, love
yes the most important person u need to fall in love with is...... yourself : )
it's like you just read my mind, been eating so much junk for the past week and i did feel bad and i felt a lot of hatred towards myself. watching this reminds me to love myself again. thank you so much you are such an inspiration!
I'm going to be completely honest about me, I'm going to be embarrassed after I say all of this. . . I'm 12yrs old and 140+ pounds... I play Minecraft, Sims 3, and Agar.io all day.. Every day. I have a treadmill.. I run 1 mile like once a week because I get bored and tired so easily. I'm never motivated, sometimes I cry myself to sleep because I see all of these girls around me with boyfriends and skinny bodies.. I have 1 friend from 6th grade and was bullied 2nd-4th grade and have yet to tell anyone about it. I'm going to middle school this year and that 1 friend I may never see again, due to class schedules. My family is kind of poor, and can't do anything about it or go anywhere. My mom cooks a lot, which means I eat a lot... I feel like I have just failed at life and will never be happy. Skinny = impossible for me. Like I will never get a boyfriend because of my weight or looks. I've been called gross, to kill myself by drinking bleach, I'm fat, ugly, embarrassing to be around, never get invited to parties or to just hang out. I have thought of suicide honestly but I won't suicide because I was brought into this world for some reason... I'm still waiting to find out that reason. I know most of you are going to comment "You just want attention" that's what everyone says.. I would know... But I don't I just wanted to share my story.. (I cried while typing this)
It will get better! Just keep pushing through ❤️
"You can do all things through Christ who gives you strength"Philippians 4:13 (from the Bible)
You are so inspiring. I honestly have been in such a low point in my life and still need to work on loving myself. This showed me that I'm not alone and that it's possible to end up being happy with your body no matter what size you are. You are truly inspirational.
I hate myself so much and I'm so depressed
same :(
exercising helps with depression and also yelling and getting out supressed emotions help. check out bioenergetics by elliot hulse. it's amazing
No! I was just going through a rough time and that was how I used to feel. Thank you for the sweet comment, you are so kind :)
you help us , who help you ?
I think this is THE BEST video I have ever seen on RUclips. You are one of the only people who had the courage to stand out and say this and the fact that you are actually admitting to being imperfect only help others realize that no one is truly perfect and I thank you for that :) so, thank you, truly.
I just cried throughout almost this entire video, I struggle so much with my body or my "image" and you just made me realize how much I need to just stop and love myself... I never comment on youtube videos and I just couldn't hold back this time. Thank you for this video you don't know how many girls you're helping
Right now I'm feeling better about myself than I felt in a long time and I just want to thank you for that. You gave me the most amazing gift. Please keep doing this kind of videos because I know I'm not the only person feeling this way. Thank you for everything.
This is the first video I've ever watched of yours and I just wanted to take a moment to comment on how beautiful, well spoken, smiley, and to-the-point you are! It's so great to come across a young youtuber who doesn't say the word "like" ever 5 seconds. You are also super inspiring in the way you say what you do. It's really encouraging and uplifting to hear someone say something that they truly believe in and stand behind. It makes me believe it! Can't wait to go watch more of your videos! :) Xo
i simply adore thoughts of people like yours, not only people would be that more happy, i think the world would be more better when sharing
these thoughts, when people
listen to their heart& find their self in being their self
it's all about attitude & sight of things!!
you just inspired me to forget about the bad comments on the internet and focus on myself.... the weekly food/exercise planner is a really good idea! you're so awesome. thank you!!!
This is so amazing, you should be a motivational speaker. I have just recently started to love my self. I did the same thing as you, comparing myself to others, but I realized that I'm not them. And I never will be. I'm still working on it but I'm becoming happier with myself. Yeah there's times when I still get down but it's not as dark. More people should make videos like this, instead of showing how to cover up flaws, embrace them. You are such an inspiration. Thank you
This video honestly made me cry....I've always been the person to put myself down when i look into the mirror, I try to motivate myself to exercise and to eat healthier but i just cant get into the habit, so far watching a couple of your videos has really helped me in so many ways! Thank you so much :)
That was one of the most real videos I have watched in a very long time. Not only have you changed my point of view on my body, but I am actually starting to like myself again. Thank you for that
I love how authentic you are. Seriously inspiring. Thank you
This video brought tears to my eyes. You are such an amazing person. Everything you said has made me feel so good about myself. I think every teenage girl who has ever hated themselves for anything should watch this.
Cambria, you are the most inspirational RUclipsr out there. This and many of your other videos have inspired me to do something. To look at myself and feel love rather than hatred. I've definitely struggled with loving my body and myself in general, and I just want to thank you so much. You are someone girls can look up to as a role model. I'm so glad I found you when I did! I love your videos so very much! Keep on going!
I love your comment :) Thank you so much!
I am 16 years old , 1,67 m and i was about 70 kg 3 weeks before !! One day I came out of my shower and i just thougth in 1,5 year i got 8 kg because i moved out to other country i lost control of my life ! I told myself that you know what you are ok with your body cause you see it everyday so you learn how to love it but what about your life style ! so i got out starting running and thinking .. all the youtube video helped me to learn not to give up with out trying enough. Today a month after the how new life style routine started i am 67kg and no i am not eating less i am eating just healthier ! its like my body and my metabolism turned on again and i am feeling nice and fresh! so thank you !
its not the first time im hearing the things you said. honestly, i feel i heard them 1000 times before. But through you i finally understand them. thank you so much. You are really helping me. :)
So, I just found your channel and I'm so thankful that I did because I've been dealing with a binge eating disorder as well. It was always so hard to find someone to relate to and now I feel like I'm not alone. Thank you for sharing your story! It means a lot to me.
your friends and family are just so lucky to have you and i hope that you are realize what good of a person you are and are proud of yourself, cause i think at least most of your other viewrs would agree that you are an incredible person, so real and honest, and we would be happy to have you in our lives
I love your vulnerability in this video, you seem to true and sincere
and it feels great to see you helping others just by talking. It's like you are just having a conversations with friends and people you care about.
Thank you for your motivation. Much Love and strength sent from Phoenix :)
Thank you for this comment! I wanted to be so honest with my feelings in this video :)
This came at the PERFECT time for me! Thank you so much! I have been binge eatting for the past 2 weeks and I just need to stop. I have lost 65 pounds, but I'm gradually gaining it back from bingeing, its making me feel so terrible about myself,even though i am now a normal weight. Im so stressed about looking good for spring break its just making me binge. I just want to say Thank You SO much this video has really helped me! You are such an inspiration to me! :)
You seriously just made me cry. Thank you for making us girls feel that it is normal to feel insecure once in awhile.. But at the end of the day, we should learn to accept the way we look now and just love the way we are. Thank you so much for this video. :)
I'm not sure if this video was recommended for me or if someone I followed had just happened to like/comment on it but either way, thank you RUclips for leading me to find such an inspirational person and thank YOU for making this video and having the strength to share your concerns about yourself and getting yourself out of such a difficult place and learning from it. I could not have found a better first video from someone. Thank you so much, you truly are an inspiration
you are so inspirational. whenever im feeling down about myself, or when i feel like i dont like myself i come to you. i come to your
I'm actually crying right now. This video is the most inspirational thing I've ever seen and it really hit me hard tonight. This is something that I've been struggling with since I can remember. I constantly compare myself to people and I don't know why. I know I can't just stop doing, but I hope I can start to see that I'm alright too. Thank you for this, so much.
I just want to take a second to thank you Cambria! I have felt bad about my body image throughout my entire life. Ever since I was young, I didn't think I was pretty enough or popular enough or skinny enough. But you have seriously changed my life with just two or three of your videos. I hope you know what an impact you have had on me (And I'm assuming MANY others). Thank you thank you thank you!
Cambria I LOVE U SO MUCH. you have inspired me so much to love myself and live a happy life. I'm battling an eating disorder right now and I can't even tell you how much your videos have helped me. I have cried over your videos because they make me feel so happy and so inspired. Thank you ily
Omg I had that similar journal! I like how you mention being productive, basically keep your mind busy to get rid of bad thoughts. Thanks for your video :)
This is such a mature and well executed video. I'm glad to see you working through your hard times, and I'm glad you decided to share this with us. I struggle with a lot of these things every day, and it's always helpful to not feel alone. Praying for you Cambria!
I also have trouble finding clothes that fit me right, and most of the time I just give up because it is too hard. I agree with you saying that there is no "perfect body", although many people don't always think that. Trying to make yourself skinnier to fit into society is not the answer. Treat your body right. I don't always treat my body right, but that's something that I struggle with and I can admit that. I don't always eat healthy and I rarely exercise because I don't think I need to.
i started crying when i watched this, cause the beginning of the video was me tonight. thank you so much for this. i cant even put how much you inspire me into words. i love youu
Thank you for making this, Bree. I truly appreciate that you are able to not sugar coat everything in terms of being true to yourself and saying it how it is. I totally understand about being busy and I'm sure we as your viewers (friends) ;) understand that life gets hard, etc. Anyway, I love you for making this! Your like a best friend that I've never met and would love to meet one day!! :)
i just found your channel and i have to say, you have probably become my favourite youtuber right now. you have been such an inspiration to me and so many other people. all your videos are so helpful and make me feel good about myself. you motivate me to change and work out but you also help me love myself for who i am and not hate me just because i don't look 'perfect'. thank you so so much!
LOVE this!! You're being such an amazing role model!
Love you!!
Oh my goodness!! she has 600,000+ subscribers! last time i went here is 500,000+ Congratulations Cambria!! you deserve it! love you! 😘😍💐💐💐💐🎉🎉🎉🎉
i just want to let you know that you are so so inspirational to me, not only to get healthy but to enjoy life and to acknowledge that joy is a choice a decition, im not christian (i was but i dont belive anymore) however i deeply care for you for some reason and i wish you the best. Thank you for teaching me to be happy and for shearing your widsmon, expreriences and joy with us (btw im sorry for my spelling im not a native english speaker)
Hi Cambria, you are such a wonderful and amazing person! Whenever I feel down, you are the first youtuber that comes to mind. What do I do when I feel down? I turn to your videos. I like them a lot. You are right, taking care of myself is important. Probably more important than taking care of my dog. Self care and faith comes first. Keep it up. I ♡ Cambria Joy. Way to go girl. I am so happy for you and Bo. You guys are really good for each other. Thanks.
ok so i'm in the middle of this video and i'm like, i love you breeeee :') thank you so much for being as you are! you are one of the most beautiful person i've ever seen and i'm also talking about your inside i mean you are so incredible and i just feel like omg you are my inspiration and my example :') i needed this video right now in my life and i'm only in the middle of it and i'm thinking 'i'm glad you exist bree'. thank you so much, i mean it. we love you bree ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
wow! Thank you! So glad you liked it! Working out doesn't have to be crazy! It's fun! :) You're beautiful no matter what size you are!
You help me so much... I am on a path to stop binge eating! Your binge eating video really helped me it made me cry in a good way it let me realize that having a little bit of body fat is ok! You are amazing ... I feel fat every day and I wish I was better sometimes I really really hate myself and I just always want to compare myself :( thank you! For every thing!!
You have really inspired me by not comparing myself to other girls and loving my body. You have really opened my eyes to what I was doing. I should be happy about myself because God created me like this. You are so inspiring to me thank you so much :)
thank you so much for making this Cambria i could tell it was really heartfelt. tbh i actually do consider u to be one of my best friends. i feel like you are there when no one else is, even though not physically. whenever i feel alone i watch your blog and just laugh with u or listen to what u have to say thank you for being there
Sometimes I just need to keep things private, but thank you so much for caring about me! :) Honestly a lot was happening with my family, and just going through personal struggles. Hope this answers your question! :)
This is incredible. You probably won't see this but this is ridiculously encouraging for me. I am recovering from anorexia and am finally back at a healthy weight, my only issue now is my mind. Everything you said in this video is completely correct about comparing yourself to others. This is so inspiring and I love it. I would actually like to talk to someone like you in person to discuss things as most people don't talk about EDs.
I really wanted to thank you because you helped me out of a dark place in my life I was having a hard time. I would only wear pants and sweaters and I refused to wear anything else. I even didnt want to take showers because that ment I had to see my self with out the sweater. I barely ate and when I did I would go cry because I felt disgusted with my self. Even my own family rarely saw me happy. An thanx to you I've come out of that dark spot. Thank You! :)
Hi Sydney! Oh my, please don't hurt yourself! You're so beautiful! I will be praying for you! xx
Thank you so much for making this video:) I've been in a really dark place recently; I've been constantly comparing myself to my seemingly perfect bestfriend for a while now and you just inspired me not to do that anymore! I finally see all the things that make me shine and that I should embrace. Even though I'm still not perfect, I feel better than I have in a long time
This was such a great video! Its so nice to see someone be real and honest and remind girls (and boys alike) what is truly important & that's loving yourself! It's refreshing to see someone sending out such a positive message & im feeling inspired to continue to learn to love myself. I'm glad you were able to take some time to focus on you, everybody needs that once in a while & you're right, you're loyal subscribers would never hold it against you! Thanks for this video girl! xo.
Omg this video is absolutely beautiful. I'm literally gonna do all those steps you showed, starting with cleaning my room (: Thanks! You're flawless! And you're so right- sometimes life just takes away time for things we wanna do. Life is just like that.
your vooice calms me so much and you've understood me in so many ways I could never be mad at you!
This is amazing! It's the most real video I have ever seen, and has so much emotion behind it. I don't think it's healthy to go crazy with your fitness regime, take a break, and definitely don't force it just because you feel like you have to. Don't feel guilty about having a slice of cake, it's ok. Everything is bad for you if you do/have it too much, moderation is essential to a healthy life style! Good luck with everything you are going through, and God bless
this is the best video i have ever watched. thank you so much for inspiring me and all the other girls out there to just love ourselves despite our imperfections. you're amazing and have truly made a difference in all our lives.
