Thank you for the advice Carla! I’m sorry if the question was too loaded, that wasn’t my intent. You’ve spoken before about realising that you didn’t actually know yourself that well, before your weight loss journey; and your work to figure out who you are and how to channel your gifts in a fulfilling way has been really inspiring. Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question . Your advice is truly valuable to me. I had not considered giving the negatives back to where they came from. Coincidentally, I have also been called 'overly sensitive' since childhood. Sitting with REAL feelings is still tough, but I know numbness is no longer serving me.
Answer to 2nd question: POM pepper spray available on Amazon!...And if that doesnt work, a Kel-tec P32 will fit in the tiniest fanny pack!. I learned this from a runner who always carries one.
First, thank you for the inspiration! I found your channel several months ago and now I'm ready to lose weight and loving all of your quotes and advice! Some really challenging questions in this video and I'm so impressed by your answers. I took notes while I watched this video as your quotes/advice resonate with me. Love: Show Up for Yourself. Can't thank you enough for willing to be vulnerable & share your journey. You are so beautiful, both inside and out. Hope you have a fabulous week!
Great video Carla! Life long sugar addict. And it is so true...the less sugar you eat the less you crave it. I call this time of the year The Sugar Season...Halloween thru Easter (my birthday is in February) . Danger Will Robinson, Danger! 😊❤
I really enjoyed this video!! There were even a few answers that applied to what I'm going through now... Thank you Carla for posting this and thank you to your viewers/subscribers for asking such great questions!!💖💖💖💄💄💄💅💅💅
Loved your safety suggestions. May I add, always be aware of your surroundings when you set off on your walk. If you are aware, you will not be caught off guard and freeze. Also, if you are not comfortable on a certain route, dont use it for a while or walk with a friend like Carla suggested. Change up your routes and your routines. This is more so if you feel stalked.
💅🏼 I really enjoy these videos, thank you so much🥰!! I do have a question, when you reached your goal weight range was there a point where you wanted to lose more? I have been in maintenance for six months and I’m starting to feel that I would like to go down another 10 pounds and still be in a healthy weight range. I am finding it difficult to get back on the weight loss track after being in maintenance. I have small pockets of fat that I would like to get rid of and I do believe with my current exercise and maybe another 10 pounds down they would disappear. I am sorry to the woman who experienced a scare on her walk, this happened to me at 12 years of age, and I have never forgotten it. I continue to walk, I now bring a large dog with me as I live in a very rural area. It gives me comfort .
Hi Carla , many thanks for this fantastic video, absolutely loved it, really appreciate the time you took to answer these questions, your wisdom and intelligence are outstanding and your generosity in sharing them are much appreciated, sending my best wishes to that lady who experienced a man approaching her on her walk, I too , am so sorry you had to deal with this, I hope you are ok, ❤, thank you Carla 💗Joanne
Hello Carla enjoyed the video. I do have to disagree about Slimming World though. There are many many people who have had great success with SW and are now in maintenance including several in the group I go to. I myself have lost 3 stone so far(3 more to go!)😊. Our consultant is fabulous and full of ideas and we have such a laugh in group. SW also works on eating a calorie deficit by labelling the foods high in protein such as meat,fish,tofu,eggs etc as free,plus all your veg and salad. The idea is to fill up on these as they are good for you. The Syn in ‘syns’ stands for synergy,the foods that are in this category are low in nutrients but high in calories and meant to be eaten in moderation. No food is excluded on SW, they are just labelled this way to enable you to make an informed choice to keep you on track. When you reach maintenance you can either have an extre ‘B’ choice every day,which may be bread for example, or I think I may do 5 on 2 off and just enjoy more on the weekends. Also group is FREE as long as you stay within 6lb off your target that you have set yourself 😊.
Thank you Carla ❤, I really appreciated your precious answer! You said that you did not allow a black and white narrative to stay focused on your weight loss. In another interesting answer you said that you have examined your inner narrative. Could you make a video dedicated to this topic? Thank you very much ❤
💅💅💅 fab video, Carla! Thankyou for your advice, especially to the question regarding who you are and which new directions to try. It was really helpful to me as I’m struggling with where I want to go and how to move forward in my new and improved body (I’m less than 3lb away from loosing 9 stones). I’m in my mid fifties and entering a different phase of adulting which is both exciting and just a lot scary! Take super care, Laura ❤❤❤
💅💅💅💅 thank you Carla. Would love a part 2. Thank you for all your videos they really do help. I have identified one of the reasons I eat was to cope with pain I have a back problem so it's been amazing to say no I don't need that chocolate etc to cope with pain it's not helpful and takes me further from my goals. I'm 29lb down 🎉 just hoping that navigating Christmas etc doesn't derail me
Love you and love videos like this! ❤ Question: do you have any tips for dealing with other people's opinions on your weight loss? For example when relatives say you're losing too fast or a friend says they're worried about you losing weight, but you know you're doing it in a healthy way. I'd love to just tell them to stay in their own lane but I don't want to start conflicts. Anyway thank you for always being so smart, kind and honest in your videos!❤ Love, Vivi

Those feelings can be hard to manage but it does become easier xx

The 1st question was a bit much. Putting her stuff on you isnt cool at all

You’re amazing Laura well done!!
Having lost 125lbs (with 65 to 80 more to go), I noticed that my nails sometimes look brittle. I might try getting manicures again. Thanks!😍
