Thank you for your never-ending honesty Faye! ♥️ Rooting for you, as always! 🩺🎓
Thank you so so much 🥲 it means so so much much to me 💗
proud of you for sharing, this couldn't have been easy but you're touching lives all over the world! sending so much love your way!!
don’t worry about being vague! we all just want you to be happy and continue being such an inspiring person, we all have things we’re dealing with and it’s all good! loved this ❤
Thank-you for forever being the ‘big sister’ figure I needed on RUclips, I literally owe my nursing degree to you at this point (when I finally finish in 10 weeks!) cannot thank-you enough for everything 💓
thank you for this! it means a lot to have someone be so open and honest, you're so strong!
Thank you so so much for the support 💗💗💗
I honestly love you Faye, you're one of my favourite content creators, your honesty and how real and open you are about things makes me love you even more. I really hope you pass your exams, you deserve it!! So happy about your London offer very well deserved❤️ I'm resisting my A-levels this year and I have gotten a couple of places in England for Nursing (I live in Spain) hopefully I get the grades this year as I didn't last year. Hearing you talk motivates me❤️🎓
I really like the editing style and the way you implemented so many short clips of different stages and moments of the past! :)))
I have been following you for years and don’t usually comment on RUclips videos. I can’t believe how vulnerable you have been on this video. Faye, you make so many people feel less alone. I hope that you heal from what you went through last year, in time. I wish you nothing but the best! Love from Aotearoa, New Zealand.
Love you so much, love how you were so honest and didn’t in any way glamourise or monetise ur weight loss and you approached this is such a responsible and empathetic way ❤️
Your honesty is so inspiring! These types of honest conversations are so important in the current climate of social media. As a more curvy girl myself, I really appreciate your take on this! Sending love your way🫶🏼
Faye you've really inspired me as a 4th year medical school student balancing her life with content creation and school I love love your videos 😇
keep going, you’re doing amazing and we’re all here for you❤
Your honesty is always so refreshing! Best of luck with the results 🎓👩🎓
Love your honesty and vulnerability. Rooting for you all the way - wherever life may lead you 🫶🏼🎓✨
Sending you a hug! I'm about to graduate from med school too and I'm feeling you! its soo easy to feel unhealthy, down and struggling in general in this particular field.
CONGRATULATIONS on getting your first choice well done you deserve it 🎓 so glad to hear you are doing well
I also went through a ‘rough’ patch end of last year can’t believe I’ve come through it and I’m on the other side just sat my final year exams
Your video really helped thank you for sharing and being so vulnerable❤️
I definitely agree with the thing you said about being treated differently when overweight. My BMI was literally like a smidge over 25 (having been underweight most of my post grad life), and the difference in people’s actions; things like people didn’t hold doors open for me, I was never offered food or drink at people’s houses, I was spoken to differently, like it was wild. Now I’m a healthy weight I get offered the snacks all the time!
I find this so interesting, I've heard so many people say this. It's hard for me to imagine. I've been quite overweight (bouncing between 230 to 260 lbs) my entire adult life but I don't think that I am being treated that much differently. If I lost 100 lbs, would the way I'm treated really change? I've seen some folks say that maybe the change that people experience has more to do with the change in their confidence and how they present themselves. I've been told I'm quite confident (I come from a fat and VERY confident mother who takes sh*t from no one). Could this be why I don't really feel like I'm treated that much differently? I happily make small-talk with strangers when I'm out, I make friends easily, men have full conversations with me at the bar even when I'm out with my hot skinny friends, I hold the door open for others and have doors opened for me. So what gives? Am I delusional, maybe? hahahah
Congratz Faye! Honestly the whole of Med tube was rooting for you. ♥️ well done girl !
I love how you share your thoughts and experiences with us. Just know you are not alone and you got this. You are so real, strong, beautiful, fearless and realistic 🙏❤️
I went through a bad mental health patch before I dropped out of uni a few years back and the weight dropped off me!! I haven’t been that size since but I know now I am generally happier even if I’m a couple of sizes up. Thank you for talking about this subject, I hope things feel easier for you now 🥰
Girl you’re just such an inspiration to so many❤️ YOU GOT THIS GAL🎓🎓🎓
Thaank you for your honesty about your weight ❤ I've been through very similar problems with bulimia, binging and loosing weight due to stress in medschool and it really helps hearing that I'm not the only one struggling with these things
Don’t everr changeeee and we support you. For perspective I have friends in medical school here in the US and as you know they don’t graduate until 26/30 best case, depending on the residency so you’ve got tonnes of time xxxx we support you!!
Love yah Faye, I hope you'll have fun in your remaining time in Med school and in becoming a Junior Doctor🌺
I looove your videos and have been watching them since I discovered your channel 1 1/2 years ago, there’s just this vibe that you transmit across your videos that make them engaging, real, and insightful, continue to be inspiring and sharing your life lessons, and importantly, continue to be your wonderful self 🫶🏼🎓🎓🎓
Thank you for this video Faye. You are incredible, strong and so honest. Favourite RUclipsr ❤️
Hi Faye, my name is Aida and I found you from one of Rachel’s videos. So happy cause I finished watching all of Rachel’s videos she has uploaded until now, now I can watch your videos❤This is the first video of you I’m watching.❤
Your honesty and the way you describe that you are trying to explain it in a responsible way is so empowering and I think will help a lot of viewers. We forget that we are all on our own personal journey and we are learning every day.
I am starting my first NHS placement on Monday as a dietitian and it's so relatable that even as health professionals we are all learning how to manage our own diet, phisical health an mental health (even more so as stressed students).
We are all human, all learning, discovering ourselves every day and your discovering you, that's priceless.
Hats off to you Faye for your honesty and transparency, and thank you for sharing your beautiful story.
🎓💖🎓💖
Best of luck for starting placement on Monday!
This is such a powerful comment Rachel and I think it will resonate with so many health care professionals navigating how to look after themselves whilst doing the best in their job 💗
Thanks for taking the time to leave such a powerful comment and thank you for watching the video xx
Thank you Faye.
My placement went really well 🥳 looking forward to the next one!
I hope your exams went well, you have worked so hard. We are all rooting for you x
🎓🎓🎓 best of luck Faye, you've got this x
🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓 Well done! You're an amazing person with a big heart. You are an inspiration and you will do well! ☺
Whenever you post it makes me so happy but there is something special about the q and a videos because you don't owe us answers to questions we may have but you decide to answer them for us and you do it in such an amazing way with all your great editing skills! You work so hard and I think you should just always follow what feels right to you, which I feel like you already do and it's very inspiring ❤
Thank you for all your support always 🥲 I don’t think there’s a single video you haven’t commented on and it doesn’t go unnoticed, I appreciate you continued support so so much xxx
@Faye Bate awwww you are so sweet and that really made my day 🥲 I feel like sometimes people on the internet can be mean for no reason and I don't understand why especially because you seem like such a genuinely kind caring person and your content is always 💯 so I am glad that my comments leave positivity, thank you so much again and have a wonderful weekend!!!!
You are such a beautiful person on the inside and out Faye. You will be an incredible doctor🎓
So proud of you even though we've never met lol, i remember watching ur 2nd year vlogs when I was in 2nd year! Looking forward to your junior doctor vlogs, esp as I'm going into final year!! Wish u the best xxxx
Thank you for sharing, Faye❤!
Thanks for watching Ella!💗
I love real videos like this 🤍
Thanks Orla! Hope you enjoyed 💗
Been here since 5k, amazing seeing your channel grow. Congratulations❤
Thank you for sticking around for so long 🥲💗
🎓 brave, brave Faye. I hope you become more and more (re)aquainted with your inner strength because I see it! Thanks for sharing! We do not need to know more details. Just because you've told some details online doesn't mean your audience "deserves" specifics. It's your life! See you in your next video!
faye, you inspire me again to excel my academic cause last year was horrible!!
So happy you feel inspired Ritishaa!! Keep pushing on, you’ve got this 🫶🏼
@@DrFayeBate much love 💕
Hi! I just found your channel today and have been binge watching. Your stories about medical school remind me heaps about myself in law school currently. Loving the content and I've been in a huge down/slump period lately. Hearing you conquer everything makes me really hopeful. I've also been putting making RUclips videos myself because of the excuse that I'm "too busy" with uni, but seeing that you can do it makes me believe I can too.
Thanks for being so inspiring and so glad I found your channel! ❤
Hey! Aw so happy you found my channel and happy you’re enjoying the content 🥰
I’m sorry you’re going through a tough time!! Best of luck with law school and getting your mojo back and remember how much you have to be proud of to get to where you are 💗
faye i honestly can’t put into words how much i love this video, it’s so real and i think your honesty is going to help so many people 🤍 i’ve been struggling with my mental health so much lately (similar things you’ve mentioned in previous videos) and especially in the past few months it’s gotten a lot worse and this video has genuinely made me believe that things absolutely can get improve and it’s definitely motivated me to want to get better ❤️🩹 i know exactly what you mean when you say talking about your emotions beings your straight back, i completely understand this feeling
i’m so happy you do youtube, i literally can’t express just how helpful it has been to have someone who i can relate to who’s journey i can watch, you’ve helped me massively and i’m so proud
we love and adore you faye please keep going xx ❤️🎓
Sending love and good vibes for graduation!🎓🎓🎓💗💗💗
Thank you Elizabeth!🤞🏻🥳💗
I'm so sorry you had to go through such a shitty time girly! You do not have to share any details with us at all. Protect your energy and recovery. If talking about it drags you backward then don't. I hope it all continues to improve for you. I'm going through a rough time myself and uni very much does not allow for it. So do what you've gotta do for your own mental health
thank you for this.
Thank you for sharing ❤🎓
I can’t listen to you all day 😅
Sending you lots of love Faye
You’re going to make an amazing GP/ doctor 🎓 or whatever you go into
You’re hardworking and brilliant at what you do keep going sis 😘❤️
I can* hahah
Believe me sometimes we just need positive people around us who understands and just stay. Stay positive gurl more power💜
🥰🥰🥰
🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓 you are really inspiring, im proud of you , i watch your videos all the time ❤❤❤❤❤❤
We love you Faye xx
🥲💗
I feel the same way about speciality. I last year i did my I loved my GP 6th year rotation. Yesterday i finished a temporary/rotation job as gp and I loved it. I do see myself as one. It's really hard because you deal with everything its so wierd how people at least where I live think its easy.
Thanks for sharing I get what you mean with your eating, mental health, and having no appetite. Stree, staying up all night, sleepless nights,..
Thank you for always inspiring us and always keeping it real. Do you mind me asking how much the courses are? It doesn't show when we click the links 🙈 I'm seriously interested in expanding my skills this way but I don't know how much they cost. X
Do you think you'd ever consider working internationally as a doctor? I find that a lot of doctors in the UK struggle with the way the NHS treats them and fall out of love with medicine, but then move somewhere like Australia and have the love come back. The stats of UK junior doctors moving to Australia are actually insane 😅
I also really appreciate your honesty and vulnerability especially when talking about medicine. It can be controversial to people outside of the system to critique, but all of us in it know exactly where you're coming from.
I have ADHD and binge eating issues too (so I clearly relate to you a lot lol) and I found that once I started my meds it also decreased me seeking out foods to binge on for that instant gratification, as well as suppressing my appetite. I'm sorry you get comments about your weight, but I love how candidly you talk about your experiences. It makes the world of difference for your viewers in a similar boat because people act like we don't exist in medicine.
Hi Faye! I am only watching the beginning of this video atm, but was wondering if you’d ever looked into moving to the states after graduating at ARU? And if so do you think you could make a video about that?
Thank you for sharing all this ♡
Thank you for watching 💗
@@DrFayeBate no neeed, you are literally my favorite youtuber 💛✨
@@doryahabieb1818 thank you so much 🥲

Feel you girl, i’m graduating in June - if you ever considered leaving the Uk, Scandinavia is an amazing opportunity for doctors: fair pay, emphasis on work life balance, very family friendly social support systems.
Love these cozy sharing videos 😍
But we don’t speak the language.
@@nazmed8141 Swedish is one of the easiest languages to learn - i feel like in the long run it is worth the effort. 😉
As a loyal subscriber since the very beginning and a fellow female med student approaching final years. I do appreciate the amount of bravery and honesty of this video. And everyone has their own experience and reasoning.
There is already a struggle for females in medicine to handle one day having a family and balancing your career. But tbh it was very very demotivating for me hear your thoughts about leaving medicine for your future family or future partner.
Although I don’t think you would ever want for this or want to imply this.
I can’t help think this could deter future females wanting to go into medicine as it could reinforce this repetitive message that you can’t be a doctor and a wife or you can’t be a doctor and a good mother.
I wanted to leave a comment for the future female doctors out there. Although I am just at the beginning of this journey. I have met such inspiring female doctors who have made it possible to be a doctor and a good partner, to be a doctor and a good mother.
I’m sorry if this is how it came across. I didn’t clarify that I wouldn’t be leaving medicine because I’m a woman. Many male and female doctors are leaving medicine at the moment to earn more for their families and be able to give them more of their time and emotional energy.
My concerns have nothing to do with being a women and everything to do with an underfunded and undervalued system.
I think you would make an awesome family GP.
This would be the dream!! 💗 and thank you so much for saying you think I’d be a good one, i really appreciate it!
I have my anatomy paper in two days 😢not in the best place mentally but won't give up regardless
Congratulations on your Weight Loss..! You seem to be Smashing all your Goals, which is very impressive to say the least..! Is any Magic involved..!?! 🤔😇👍
Hi, Faye and Happy belated April Fool's Day!😊😊😊😊😊😙💙💙💙💙💙🇺🇸🌷🇬🇧💜💜💜💜💜💜😊🎇👍. I love your beautiful "New York" shirt! It's so cute!😍😍😍😍😍
where is the brown jumper from at 3:21? i love it xxx
You are so incredible 🫶🏼🎓🥰
Thank you Maria 🥰🥰
Is it possible to practice medicine part-time? Or locum just to keep a toe in while pursuing other options? I’d love to see a RUclipsr take their audience to MSF placements
Where is your new york jumper from Faye? x

You won't have any time for You-tube when you have officially become a doctor. RUclips and any other platform of social media should be only a hobby of yours to pass the time when having nothing important to do.. Such things you have seen online as project management are like drums which sounds impressively loud, but actually are empty, or have nothing inside. When you get older, you will understand what i have just said
I have to disagree, creative outlets are integral for maintaining good mental health and also making sure you have an identity outside of your career. If Faye enjoys RUclips and in creating content and videos, then she should be encouraged to keep doing it ❤ it is amazing how much free time you gain (even working as an intern/PGY1) once you aren't studying for exams 😂
Respectfully this is nonsense. There are lots of working doctors making youtube and other social media content.
