Hi guys 🥹🫶 i love you. I hope you enjoyed the video. If you want you can join my Discord Community today - discord.gg/lindasunyt - to can chat with me and each other about food, life, peanut butter, etc. hehe I’m so happy you’re here, be kind to yourself today, and I’m sending you all lots and lots of love 💛
As if I wasn’t already in a good mood today you made me feel even better by posting. love you sis ❤ Also it’s like this video was meant for me I was starting to have a bad body week since yesterday. thank youuuuu
He second I saw that carrot banana bread recipe I ran downstairs and put an egg out to set for room temperature. I will be making today and let you all know how good it is on the discord server.
i read something yesterday that really helped, so i wanted to share it with you guys : stressing about what you're eating / what u ate is much more unhealthy than that thing u just ate like basically stress is just as poisonous for ur body than what u're feeling guilty about for eating life's too short
If you're reading this Linda I just wanna thank you for helping me at my worst. I hated myself my body, my features etc. I then started watching your videos and I immediately felt better just seeing someone being realistic and honest about their life made me feel better just seeing you smile made me happy 💗 And I'm so sure I am not the only one you made feel like this 🥰
I don’t know why but I LOVE the voiceovers. You have the best podcast voice ever and I always feel less alone with my negative thoughts when you’re this transparent. Just remember We love you and the person you’re becoming ❤
Linda, the fact that you share sooo much of your personal thoughts and let us take part in your "bad" days and that you're so honest about your thoughts, guilt, self-refection, etc... is worth so much!!! It seems normal do be so open but it isn't and we should take a moment to appreciate it more!!! I can't even express how much this means to me& the people watching, I guess! You are such an inspiriting and lovely person, never forget that.. So so much love, Celia ❤
Linda u have no idea what impact u have on me,you are the only reason my eating disorder hasn't reached a severe stage. More love and power to u from INDIA❤️❤️❤️❤️
ik u probably wont see this but ur videos genuinely help me alot and make me feel less guilty abt eating its rlly nice how u genuinely show that eating " bad " foods like peanut butter or chocolate is ok and its rlly inspiring how happy u r
This was exactly what I needed. Struggling with binge eating and constantly feeling guilty for not working out, eating food I love and enjoy. Thank you for the kindly reminder ❤️
Linda, the fact that you are so open about how you are still working on yourself and your personal wins is WHY you are so relatable and wonderful and inspirational. There are so many people on RUclips claiming they are already perfect but it’s hard for me to be motivated by someone who just appears perfect and got there by just working hard or dieting strictly. You guide us, but also like a friend: you are someone we can relate to, you are someone who makes us feel better about ourselves and less alone. At least that’s my two cents :)
I totally felt the fact that so many years of memories and pictures are connected to ED memories/thoughts and I regret it so much. It makes me sad knowing that ´healthy´ people hardly ever remember what they had for dinner 3 days ago. And I see an old picture and know exactly what I ate that night and that I worried a lot about eating too much. I feel your thoughts so so much. Love your videos, Linda.
Omg your brother! I feel like this is the first time we’ve actually seen him? I might be wrong, but either way, I love your family dynamic. Your dad is hilarious every time you show him, and your mom seems so homey and sweet. I’m so happy you have such a lovely family, its very heart warming
I am going through a rough time this few days. I am being way too focused into consuming less food and using exercise as a way to earn the food. I want to build a healthy relationship with food but the fear of weight gain and how society will treat me is making me miserable. I had few panic attacks, lots of crying and feeling like a dead soul. Today you dropped your video and it provided me with a sense of warmth and assurance that I needed. Your struggles are same as mine so when I see your content I feel seen and understood.
I hope you're feeling a lot better now,just know that there are a thousand people going through the same problem and you're not alone.sending you love ❤
I’m literally obsessed with your page, every video is an intricate story that you curate. I’m so comforted watching them like I can’t even explain it, you just slay EVERTIME. You are more than your videos and more than food, your are amazing!! love you ❤
Just thank you. I'm so grateful i found you, Linda you helped me so much with my relationship with food. I stopped counting calories almost a week 'cause i wanted to enjoy my holiday, and it was one of the best choices ever. I focused on experiences than numbers, I felt free to eat a sweet even if I had it the day before. It wasn't always easy but my mum is been helping me a lot. I don't want to see food as an enemy. I wanna have my live back, my happiness. And you are helping me so much in this journey. Sometimes I wish I was like you but I do love myself and my body, not always but most of the times. Pls remember that you're so beautiful, amazing and strong. Sending you lots of love - Taia
thank you Linda. every time I get a notification that you've uploaded a new video it feels like a hug and I get very excited ❤️ your videos are like therapy.
linda is my forever savor omgg you posted at the perfect time litteraly saved my life I love you so much thank you for all of the effort you put in your videos and I wish you all the best in the world you truly deserve it I love you
Amazing stuff! All your videos are so well done and very useful. I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. Have you ever used any of these custom meal plan tools? I got one from Next Level Diet to help me lose some fat and I actually like their plans. Was just wondering if you've heard of or tried any of them yourself. Thank you!
Thank you for this Lately, I've been struggling a bit with bad body image your videos just come on the right time every time I am recording my journey of health in my RUclips channel. Just having fun with recipe experimentation and trying to love myself, you are such a source of inspiration THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART PS: For anyone also struggling, YOU ARE AMAZING DUE TO THE SIMPLE FACT THAT YOU ARE ALIVE, you deserve to feel good, because you are breathing, you deserve love because you are worthy. DO NOT LET ANYONE TELL YOU OTHERWISE.
You are so right about everything. It's a long journey until you get there and I'm still on my way. But having a food freedom is something that can improve your life, relationships, thoughts and emotions so much that it's so worth of trying.
linda i love you sm im recovering from anorexia and rn i adopted a healthy lifestyle that i eat and workout at the same time im so happy and you helped me in my journey you are my comfort person ilysm
Hi linda !!! I just wanted to thank you for your videos. I am following you for 2 years now and I am never desapointed by your work, you always inspired me and make me smile so just a little reminder that you are wonderful inside and outside, that you deserve the world and that we all support you. Take care 😊
Linda your videos always help feel like I’m not alone in my journey and I just wanted to let you know that without your videos I don’t know where I would be. Thank you❤️
When you said that you remember most of your memories being preoccupied with your body and how much you ate, something clicked. I relate to that so so much. Even with my boyfriend, he takes me on trips and he even travelled halfway around the world to visit me for a couple of days and the only thing I could think about is how much I ate and that I shouldn't have done it. Even though those were good memories, the amount of time I've spent worrying about this and not being able to be in a good mood and enjoying myself was so sick. I will try to work on it now, thank you for actually making me realize that!
i feel very comforted watching your videos. i have some issues with obsessing over calories and my body. it's hard to get out of that obsession but i crave to be healthy. i'm trying to improve myself and i feel better when i watch your vids. thank you :)
Your video is something that I'm going to save and watch back, again and again. I had a breakthrough with my disorder last night when my husband and I had our Bible study. It is so stupid how I care about my body, when in the past I only cared about it because I wanted to find a man, and for him to think I'm pretty. I'm married now, and have been married for 3 years!!! But once you have it, the disorder is hard to get rid of, and I need to put more of my focus on my amazing marriage with my best friend. Even he was like, you have me and our family, what are you not eating for?
adore you so much and the person you are, you should be exceptionally proud of where you are. GO YOU and everything that you have accomplished, big and small and congratulate yourself on taking the journey of self love and compassion because we all know it’s not an easy one. Thank you, Linda for making us all feel beautiful and safe 💜
I needed this video so much today. It's my birthday and I have been stressing and obsessing over my family dinner tonight because I know the calories in the meal and I'm so worried it's "too much". But no. I am going to create beautiful memories with my favorite people and enjoy my day, it only comes once a year! My life is made up of so much more than the calories in the food I NEED to live it!
linda, you and your channel have helped me so much. i thank you so much for what you do and i hope you have the happiest and joyful life ever. and i know you know this but im saying this so that i can remind myself, its okay to have sad days, and its okay to make mistakes or feel a certain way. our minds make us think that our mistakes are like hills, when youre going up one, all you see is you struggling to pull yourself up, but once youre on top, you will finally see what is there and whats to come. i love you and your channel, linda. never change your mindset and keep doing what you love and what you want forever💗🫶
How much of my life have I spent obsessing about my body, food, calories, and exercise? I started when I was 13 and I’m 43 now! 30 years and what have I learned? That I’be roughly been the same size. So, if I had known at 13 that I’d be healthy and the same size 30 years later, would I have spent so much time obsessing about it? 🤔
I’m sorry to hear that. But really, it’s why I write! I write women’s fiction and include in my books the lifelong struggles we have with insecurity and these obsessions. I had an editor once say ‘I really doubt she’d worry about that,’ in response to one of my scenes. I was like, obviously you have never been plagued with this obsession. Now, I use this “flaw” to help me write so other women can realize they are not alone. 🥰🥰
I started really obsessing around age 17 and am now 30 - it has been physically and mentally exhausting. It was the worst in college. Happy with being slightly underweight then, but 24/7 unable to embrace that fully because I was occupied with thinking about how not to gain weight (I am now “normal” weight although I could lose 10 lbs). No doubt I still have eating disorder tendencies and think more about food than I should. Hopefully even though we all don’t know if we’ll be “the same size” years later, we can focus on nourishing rather than restricting ourselves.
Exactly!! Food is for nourishment, fun, and can be medically healing in so many ways as well, as I’ve experienced this firsthand. It sounds like you are in a better place now. We may not ever be 100% healed from the food obsession tendencies, but hopefully we can all get to a place where we go with the flow of life. I wish you the best!
@@LaraloSharmano-wz6lk There is SO much more information out there now about being healthy, which is the goal, to be healthy. I understand what you are going through. Know that you are not alone! Nearly everyone has issues with how they look and that filters down to diet and exercise. I’m so glad you’re on this channel though!
Thank you Linda! No matter how bad my relationship with food and my body becomes your videos where you share your struggle makes me feel like its okay not to always be okay and they’re helping me improve my mental health so thank you
This video came at the perfect time. I need to lose 45 lbs to be at a healthy weight, and i’m currently intermittent fasting while eating more whole foods. I dont want to count calories this time around because it messes me up when i go over. It’s so hard fighting the urge to want to count calories 😭
Thank you for this! It’s crazy how much of my life and memories is overshadowed by food, it makes me so sad. Memories is what I’m fighting for, I couldn’t do it without you ❤
Sweetie, you are saving my life. I can't thank you enough, your videos always come at my lowest points. Thank you, Thank you so much. I do not have the capacity, nor the capability now to elaborate on my experience in this comment, because I still have to elaborate on all of that myself. But I love what you are doing, and I would love to give you an hug. I hope that I will get better and next time I will write a much more positive message. In the meantime, love to everyone of you
yesterday and today were the first days I've had 3 meals a day without hesitation or feeling bad without it in a very long time. I remember finding your channel nearly 2 years ago and I've been on and off watching you ever since. I don't know but somehow you always post when I'm restricting and your videos help me to remember that food is not bad for my body and I should love myself regardless of any negative thoughts that arise. hope you are well and take care
This video is such a refreshing breath of air in a world of comparing ourselves to others. Thank you Linda for reminding me to enjoy life and good food:)
I love your videos so much, I watch them at the gym in the morning and it helps me go through my day not criticizing myself about what I’m eating and my body image!
thank you so much Linda. everything you said in this video really hit home. i've been struggling a little extra lately and really needed this. you've honestly helped me so so so much, and i'm so grateful! you are so strong and you make me feel strong too
This was literally straight up therapeutic I feel soo good after watching it and it made me feel so comfortable and relaxed in a way nobody can It's like i went to s therapy session Thank you ❤️
Dear Linda🌼 Just watching and listening to you brings sooo much joy, light and happiness to my soul Thank you for the great content that uplifts and inspires❤❤❤❤❤
I guess I'm not the only one who's bounced back to this square again. I wonder if it's because it's winter now and we begin to become conscious of our body again but whatever it isnits been making me feel terrible for the past weeks so I'm glad your video came at just the right time
Linda i just want to say one time before i even started watching your videos my eyes blacked out aswell i was unable to see anything for a few mins i did not think much of it and carried on (this was after a workout) and recently as i was watching your video it felt like it happend again. My head was hurting badly and even if it had nothing to do with workouts i stopped becuase of you thank you❤
Honestly, this video was the exact thing I needed this morning! You are an amazing person and you have changed my life in more ways then one! Thank you for not giving up on this channel because I know you are helping millions just like me! Love you so much!! ❤😊
what I eat during a bad body image week...nothing from restaurants ^^' This video came when I was having anxiety about eating out and not knowing the calorie. I prefer not eating out until I really want to go without stressing... The path is still soooooooooooooooo long for me T-T I cannot imagine how it is possible for me to create such memories in one week by eating out almost all the week like you did with your family...without guilt feel, anxiety and with such a pretty smile on your face. You deserve all the best Linda Keep going xx
Hi linda i just wanted to tell you how much i appreciate you, your videos always make me feel better about myself and help me with food, you are amazing thank you so much.
ur literally inspiring me to start a healthy lifestyle and im actually making it happen all bcz of your consistency and strong mentality ❤❤ thank you for these videos that i’ve been binging for the past week
I must say I love your videos, but most of all your mindset. Thank for always being so honest and real. Our minds can be our worst enemy to ourselves but working on it everyday and giving yourself grace and doing your best can overcome those pesky negative thoughts. Your so beautiful, I hope one day I can turn my negative thoughts into something positive ❤
Loved this video Linda, I always love your realness and honesty. I'm on my own recovery weight gain journey and you always make me feel so much better about food and my body. Sending lots of love from Hollywood!! xoxo 🤗🥰💕💕💕💕
Thank you for sharing your amazing life story with us Linda.♥️♥️🤗 Life is too short to be worrying about what you eat.we have to enjoy life and take it one day at a time.😊 Enjoy life as it comes ♥️
Am I the only one how finds lindas content pretty toxic? I followed her for a long time and basically every Video she posts is about the exact same content. I get the feeling she swollows out the same information again and again like a broken record. It is all about intuitive eating but she highlights it sooo much that it actually has the opposite effect on me which is why I don't follow her anymore. She posts 15min videos only about diet. She also switches her diet and sports routine every quarter which doesn't seem healthy as well. This is no hate comment but constructive critisism and I am curious if somebody else gets the same impression.
You’re spot on with how these videos are constructed and her skewed mindset! She’s trying to sell that she’s got a handle on things but it’s not working. It’s gotten very toxic
Hi Linda, I just wanted to say that I absolutely love your videos and all the honest themes that you talk about in them! You are such an inspiring person! You have a beautiful and reflective way of describing your thoughts! And I get so exited every time you post a new video! Keep up the good work
I miss the old videos about enjoying a workout, family time, and food. I feel like now, it is always about a form of sadness and how to overcome it. I am not saying that bad times, bad thoughts, or whatever must not be shared. I think that it is a good way for people to see that they're not alone and that everyone, even the famous influencers, has bad days and try to cope with them. However, I feel like every video tries to convey a strong message whereas, sometimes, just seeing someone doing random things and enjoying life, without all the heavy voiceovers, is more helpful to feel better. Just my thoughts
This video was so touching, I relate to everything you mentioned- especially when instead of enjoying the special moments I was constantly thinking about the calories and number on the scale.🙏🙏 A wake-up call!
Linda, you are such an inspiration. Thank you for being here . So nice to see your growth . Thank you for sharing the recipes cause and I am looking forward to try protein oatmeal and other yummies😍🙏🏻😊💜😁🤍

Thank you ❤
i read something yesterday that really helped, so i wanted to share it with you guys :
stressing about what you're eating / what u ate is much more unhealthy than that thing u just ate
like basically stress is just as poisonous for ur body than what u're feeling guilty about for eating
life's too short
This is really helpful and so true ahhh thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
You’re right , and thank you from México 🇲🇽
I don't wanna have to stress about what in eating so I don't gain weigth, I'm stressed with college enough
Merci beaucoup, ça m'a fais beaucoup de bien de lire ca :) (c'est cool de voir une française ici😄)

i love how im focusing on all the recipes written on the video while also trying to focus on your voice over
Thank you Linda! No matter how bad my relationship with food and my body becomes your videos where you share your struggle makes me feel like its okay not to always be okay and they’re helping me improve my mental health so thank you
love the energy in your family and enjoying food together ❤️
I’m so happy we have linda sun as our escape from our own problems, i always find myself happy after watching her videos 💓
whenever I'm obssessed again with my weight... My go to vid is you. I love you thank you for posting you inspired me to love my body
your parents are so cute my heart gets warm and happy everytime they smile they give me positive energy
Just hearing Linda's voice helps me to check in with myself and see if I am okay🧡
This video came at the perfect time. I need to lose 45 lbs to be at a healthy weight, and i’m currently intermittent fasting while eating more whole foods. I dont want to count calories this time around because it messes me up when i go over. It’s so hard fighting the urge to want to count calories 😭
Thank you for this! It’s crazy how much of my life and memories is overshadowed by food, it makes me so sad. Memories is what I’m fighting for, I couldn’t do it without you ❤
you’re doing amazing💕💕 always so proud of youu
finally the queen posted..............shes sooo gorgeous i wanna cry
Sweetie, you are saving my life. I can't thank you enough, your videos always come at my lowest points. Thank you, Thank you so much. I do not have the capacity, nor the capability now to elaborate on my experience in this comment, because I still have to elaborate on all of that myself. But I love what you are doing, and I would love to give you an hug. I hope that I will get better and next time I will write a much more positive message. In the meantime, love to everyone of you
Thank you for this!!! What we all need to hear!
1. Your videos are amazing. 2. Your editing is on point. 3. What an amazing family you have/are! Love it
yesterday and today were the first days I've had 3 meals a day without hesitation or feeling bad without it in a very long time. I remember finding your channel nearly 2 years ago and I've been on and off watching you ever since. I don't know but somehow you always post when I'm restricting and your videos help me to remember that food is not bad for my body and I should love myself regardless of any negative thoughts that arise. hope you are well and take care
This video is such a refreshing breath of air in a world of comparing ourselves to others. Thank you Linda for reminding me to enjoy life and good food:)
Linda you rock Bro. U helped me with my anorexia times and thriving everyday
I love your videos so much, I watch them at the gym in the morning and it helps me go through my day not criticizing myself about what I’m eating and my body image!

I’m so glad I found you on here. Thank you for inspiring me and everything you do. I never found a RUclipsr I have related to so much.
"instead of trying to escape, learn to fight back" LINDAAA. THANK YOU.😭
replaying every 5 seconds just because I need to hear your helpful words again. thank you linda! lots of love X
I guess I'm not the only one who's bounced back to this square again. I wonder if it's because it's winter now and we begin to become conscious of our body again but whatever it isnits been making me feel terrible for the past weeks so I'm glad your video came at just the right time
Linda i just want to say one time before i even started watching your videos my eyes blacked out aswell i was unable to see anything for a few mins i did not think much of it and carried on (this was after a workout) and recently as i was watching your video it felt like it happend again. My head was hurting badly and even if it had nothing to do with workouts i stopped becuase of you thank you❤
This is the best birthday gift ever!!!!! Thank you Linda !!
Honestly, this video was the exact thing I needed this morning! You are an amazing person and you have changed my life in more ways then one! Thank you for not giving up on this channel because I know you are helping millions just like me! Love you so much!! ❤😊
The 22minutes of therapy that my soul needed to know that everything’s okay and I’m not alone in my thoughts 💛
Best feeling i woke up to your video.. thank you linda for giving us the courage to get back to ourselves
what I eat during a bad body image week...nothing from restaurants ^^'
This video came when I was having anxiety about eating out and not knowing the calorie. I prefer not eating out until I really want to go without stressing...
The path is still soooooooooooooooo long for me T-T
I cannot imagine how it is possible for me to create such memories in one week by eating out almost all the week like you did with your family...without guilt feel, anxiety and with such a pretty smile on your face.
You deserve all the best Linda
Keep going xx
i really love your videos its so therapeutic and relatable especially when you talk about body image and obsessing over diet culture !!
Hi linda i just wanted to tell you how much i appreciate you, your videos always make me feel better about myself and help me with food, you are amazing thank you so much.
Why are you like an older sister talking to me?! Watching your video is so heartwarming ❤
remember: don't let one negative ruin all the positives, love ya linda!
Linda you are the reason i have courage to let go and move forward
You are an inspiration and idol to all those people with EDs.
I always have to watch Linda's vlogs at least three times over to fully comprehend her incredible work 🤩

I must say I love your videos, but most of all your mindset. Thank for always being so honest and real. Our minds can be our worst enemy to ourselves but working on it everyday and giving yourself grace and doing your best can overcome those pesky negative thoughts. Your so beautiful, I hope one day I can turn my negative thoughts into something positive ❤

Life is too short to be worrying about what you eat.we have to enjoy life and take it one day at a time.😊
Enjoy life as it comes ♥️
Was waiting for this !!Love you Linda!!!😊❤
I am so grateful for all of your hard work and dedication to YT 💜
Am I the only one how finds lindas content pretty toxic? I followed her for a long time and basically every Video she posts is about the exact same content. I get the feeling she swollows out the same information again and again like a broken record. It is all about intuitive eating but she highlights it sooo much that it actually has the opposite effect on me which is why I don't follow her anymore. She posts 15min videos only about diet. She also switches her diet and sports routine every quarter which doesn't seem healthy as well. This is no hate comment but constructive critisism and I am curious if somebody else gets the same impression.
You’re spot on with how these videos are constructed and her skewed mindset! She’s trying to sell that she’s got a handle on things but it’s not working. It’s gotten very toxic
she seems like she binges and purges
Hi Linda, I just wanted to say that I absolutely love your videos and all the honest themes that you talk about in them! You are such an inspiring person! You have a beautiful and reflective way of describing your thoughts! And I get so exited every time you post a new video! Keep up the good work
I miss the old videos about enjoying a workout, family time, and food. I feel like now, it is always about a form of sadness and how to overcome it. I am not saying that bad times, bad thoughts, or whatever must not be shared. I think that it is a good way for people to see that they're not alone and that everyone, even the famous influencers, has bad days and try to cope with them. However, I feel like every video tries to convey a strong message whereas, sometimes, just seeing someone doing random things and enjoying life, without all the heavy voiceovers, is more helpful to feel better. Just my thoughts
Hi linda, good to see you, you don't how much your videos, you eating happily makes me so much happy, thank you ♡
This video was so comforting for me today
You’re literally the best ❤️❤️
You are honestly teaching me how to enjoy every bite of my food! that's new to me! thanks for that xoxo
This video was so touching, I relate to everything you mentioned- especially when instead of enjoying the special moments I was constantly thinking about the calories and number on the scale.🙏🙏 A wake-up call!
Linda, you are such an inspiration. Thank you for being here . So nice to see your growth . Thank you for sharing the recipes cause and I am looking forward to try protein oatmeal and other yummies😍🙏🏻😊💜😁🤍
