How did 2021 treat you? Did you stray off your path at all?
One thing that hurts me is, everyone in my house doesn't eat like me. This makes my struggle so hard!! If it's in your house it's in your mouth!!
2021 was good in general for me except for weight loss, getting back on track from 2019 had been almost impossible. I have this new routine/pattern that's very hard to break. Here's to hoping 2022 will be a productive year🥂. So sorry to hear about your baby, I work as a receptionist at a vet hospital and it is very hard to watch our fur babies go through such pain and you don't know how to help them. I'm glad you where able to get her the help she needed fast!!
hello, no i didn't, stray off my path. I think the difference is, i didn't succeed til i yo yo dieted for 55 yrs, then at age.66 , when i was nearly bed/home bound, i finally got it ! For my health, this time, not looks. which my looks was bad, if u've seen any of my videos, 5'1", 239 lbs, BMI 44, size 3x mans shirts, 3x women's pants & tops. I wanted to reverse all my food/drink related illnesses & i did, It took me over 3yrs, now at 3y10m's & still maintaining, between 139-144, i don't call that gains., cause my pants are still, ever so slightly getting looser. Oh, i lost 100 lbs in the 3 yr.. anyway, ,sorry am so long winded, bc i regained my health & mobility, that is my motivation, to NEVER go back, from my wfpb/vegan lifestyle. Processed food addiction, is real !! I am just lucky/blessed that after detoxing from sugar, fats/salt, alcohol & flours, i do not crave them, & if, they ever cross my mind, i say to myself, it's poison . I know that bc, i reversed major illnesses, HBP, FIBRO, IBS, restless legs, racing heart & mind ,esp at night, depression, pre diabeties, & got off 5 meds was taking for them. I have had a huge bad thing happen to me, & so blessed that is didn't make me want to go back there. My oldest daughter, & 2 grown children & my oldest sister, 74, all stopped talking to me, bc i would not mingle with them, in the beginning of pandemic. I am pretty sure, the old , very sick me, would of gone back to the SAD diet. I am very hurt, if your daughter ignores u on bday, mothers day & then, blocks u on fb, that is the ultimate. , but my health is more important right now, i am turning 70 Jun5, & if i don't look after me, no one else is gonna. well, this is too long, i have my small channel, 527, & now back to 522 again. So glad Ellie recovered. , that really was, a lot going on, same time. Yes, lots of vegan food, but very high is fat & sugar, Chef AJ says, she was a fat vegan, for 42 yrs.. I love my kitties, are my therapy , & keep me entertained . Yes, those addictive processed foods, do, are mood changing, ie. depression, etc.. Hope this comment doesn't come off as rude. I do starch solution, Chef AJ's way. Hey we both lost 100 lbs, & i am coming up to my 4th yr, March 18th. !! Very good, getting back on track, b4 gaining all back, so many times, thru my 55 yrs, i gained back & more. I AM a POTATO people, hence my name. sorry this is so long, but, it was like i was sitting there with u chatting 👍🙏🥔🥦🍠🐶
@@vickiewatson6152 sorry to butt in, but yes, i heard Chef AJ, say that many times. I am lucky when hubby eats chips, etc., he doesn't do it around me, often, maybe in a muckbang, he will eat something that i uSED to eat, but, he inherited his dad's hse, built 1804, right next door, so, he cooks his meat, etc,. over there & eats it, very convenient. tfs 🥔🥦🍠🥰🙏
Yes, majorly at the end of the year 🤦🏻♀️
I also gained 40 pounds back in the last year and a half especially after my daughter had a traumatic brain injury. But also like you- I didn’t gain half back and still have lost 65 pounds. My family says that to me a lot that my plant based diet isn’t working because I’m still overweight. I’ve gotten back on track as well. I resonate a lot with you, thanks for the video 🙂🥔💛
I'm sorry you went through an emotionally difficult time, I hope your daughter is on the mend. I really loathe being misunderstood... imagine it's incredibly frustrating to have your family tell you that your diet isn't working 😐
i think u deserve a lot of credit for all your efforts and i think your family are either flat out jealous of your weight loss and successful health improvement or they are just nasty people. sorry to be harsh. but u are doing great tolerating their awful comments ...i would not have been able to put up with that. i hope your daughter is improving. Continue telling yourself you didnt even regain half of your wonderful loss! Many would have regained the lot plus more! Especially in the face of such tragedy and stress! You are still a true winner and u are proving it by jumping back on track and youll get that naughty forty back off again! All the best!
It's not important how badly we fall but that we get back up. Hugs to you.
You have certainly been through the mill and you're attitude to it is wonderful. I was relieved to hear Little Bear is well and getting a tonne of love back with mum and dad at home. You're so right. Life happens and don't ever be ashamed of weight gain. Our bodies change and it's okay. You're beautiful and still inspiring and it's so good to see you and the puppers back again 🥰🐶🐶🐶🐶
It was a rollercoaster of emotions... and so much easier to talk about it now that I've accepted everything for what it is.. and where I'm at now. Thank you for the kind words and encouragement Sarah!
I've followed you all the way through 2021. I've been a million miles away in reality but tried to stick by your side virtually. I know what a hard time you've had jeanine, but can I just say, You are amazing! I know you were nervous about doing this video, but you did great! 👋👋👋😘😘😘. Xx
Thank you Davena for always encouraging me 😘
I was in the same way. I’m finally back on track again! You are doing awesome. This is life. I’m proud and appreciate you.
Thank you Elaine, you've always dished out the encouragement for me and I really appreciate you!
As a person who has seen you through the last six months( not literally 😂) I feel your pain. I also went off the wagon so to speak and am Finally ready to walk the walk ! Need to buy more veg when we get to the next campground! Let's DO IT!!!
I'm here for you Gwen!! I know it's difficult to face this crap head on but WE GOT THIS! You did it before, you can do it again. It's all part of the recovery process. Rinse and repeat.
I'm so glad Ellie is okay! ❤️❤️❤️ It's so stressful when our pets aren't well, that much have been so awful.
I'm happy you're feeling better now ☺️
Thanks for sharing with us 💓
Thank you It wasn't fun but I feel slightly better-equipped to handle choppy waters now.🥰
Yay! Happy Ellie got better! Glad you are feeling better now too!
Thank you!! 😊 I love my fur kids so much!
Welcome back! You were missed. So glad that Ellie is recovering 😊 Thank you for sharing and congratulations for pushing through a tough time. Your DM response was powerful and beautiful. Thank you for that ❤
It kinda feels good that I was missed... thank you 😘
You are an amazing woman. You’re also not alone straying off the path, I know I’ve been there! As far a the past couple of years, life has really sucked, but my husband and I try real hard to lift each other up and keep ourselves sane. A good sense of humor helps. I also know you and my Potato Buddies are here for me. Thank you
all the best
i feel you..i was caring for my Dog with Cancer for 18 months
i almost destroyed me .
they are Family
Thank you for sharing. Take one day at a time. Mantra for 2022…. “Be Kind.”
I love it! Be kind... remember to be that for you as well :)
The ones making comments about our 'failure' are most likely the ones who are fortunate enough to have stretch receptors and nutrient receptors that are working the way they're SUPPOSED to work. At any rate, I've gained back 30lbs of the 175 I removed. Fell F L A T during the holidays and it took me the first 10 days of January to find some grip. I'm thrilled to hear that Ellie Bear is doing better. And I'm thrilled to hear that you've also found some grip.
The last few years have been the pits. I gained weight & hate it. 1\2 of 2022 is here & I am still struggling. I am pushing forward. Thanks for the pep talk.
It takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there on UA-cam. Thank you for sharing your story. What you described is very similar to my own experience through the years -- there's nothing broken or wrong with us, it's just the way it is for some of us. Keep reminding yourself that you know what it takes to be successful in weight loss and weight management, so your weight is definitely something you can change when you are ready. Glad to hear your little furbaby is doing well. I enjoy hearing about your experiences, but nothing says being a UA-cam star is something you have to do for the rest of your life. Wishing you all the best and a happy 2022.
You made my day, thank you 😘
Last year was rough here too, still having trouble getting back on the wagon. It's hard. thank you for sharing 💗 made me choke up a bit for some reason, im not really good with emotions and i use food as avoidance ... So glad your puppy is doing better!💗
Just know that your wagon doesn't have to be perfect. It can be rickety with the wheels barely hanging on. Any small daily effort towards getting back on your path is enough. 😘
I hope things are better, one year later 🌷
Thank you for being so open Jeannine ❤️ The last 2 years have been rough for me as well. We lost our home and everything we own in a fire in Oregon in Sept of 2020. Within 1 month my husband took a job across the country in a State we've never been to. I didn't have any family here and no friends either. By May of 2021 my cat I adored died and my puppy got parvo and was VERY sick. Then my father who moved here with us, because I'd been taking care of him the last 4 years since my Mom passed away took a turn for the worse. He passed away in October. Life has been upside down. So ya the last couple of months I've been off track too. But like you I'm not giving up! Thank you so much for this video. I love your response to the comment you got! 🥰 and I look forward to Fruits n Roots! Write away Sister! 😃
I’m so glad Ellie made it through that, my heart broke watching this video. We almost had our puppy pass before she was even 1 year. It’s such a tough thing to go through. ❤️
How is your puppy now?
Thanks so much for the update! Im so glad little Ellie is doing well..Im a cat mom to a rescue house of 20 cats and it was so stressful through the beginning of the pandemic for them and me. I live in a small town in Panama SA and there were shortages of cat food here so the stress was horrible. There were times I just thought whats the point and started eating vegan junk food as well and was in a constant worry for my cats. We are okay now but it has been hard for all of us. before we judge each other, please remember that we all carry our own cross so be kind, the hills are bigger for some to climb..lets push each other up the hill 🙏🙏. I did miss you and always kept you and your little furry girls in my heart. Ive been doing the reset with you over the last few weeks and down 5lbs. Yeah…again, thanks so much for all you do! You have and do make a difference. Hugs Gwen 🇨🇦
Island life must be quite the challenge especially now. I'm glad you're all okay now and way to go getting back on the tater train with me!
I just found you today after Chelsea Mae mentioned you on one of her UA-cam videos. I’m so grateful to find you. I just want you to know I appreciate your honesty. I understand your depression and grief over the sickness of your puppy. I recently lost my 16 year old maltipoo 3 weeks ago. He died in my arms. I’m so grief stricken I find it difficult to function. I’m doing somewhat better now. I’m ordering your book and I’m cooking potatoes as I text you. 😊 I too am an emotional vegan junk food eater. I’ve gained 10 pounds in the last 3 weeks since losing my pup. I just want you to know that I appreciate your videos and your help getting back on track. ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss, it's truly a painful experience. I wish you peace and healing
My furbaby has Addison's disease. He got really sick twice (bad bad) before he got that diagnosis. I am so glad you got a diagnosis and as you said it's so treatable once you know what is wrong. Hugs to you all!
Hey Girl! Nice to see you again. I’ve been up and down myself over the last couple of years. But I do want to thank you for your words at the end of the video. It was exactly what I needed to hear. Hope your doing well, and here’s to a better year ahead! ❤️
I really appreciate you sharing what’s going on with you! Your honesty and vulnerability is refreshing, and I appreciate you sharing the message that it’s okay to veer off track, because you’re right that’s just life! We’re always learning and growing and that path is not always going to be linear.
Exactly this!! "Always learning and growing and that path is not always going to be liner" well said
I’m so happy you are back!! 🙌
I’m so sorry you had to go through all you did. I have furbabies too and they are my everything. So when any of them are sick it messes with my emotions cuz I’m so afraid of losing them. I’m so glad little Ellie pulled threw and is doing good! She’s beautiful!
Thanks so much for your channel and for always being real! Much love! 💕
So happy to hear that Ellie is doing better! When our fur babies are not doing well it is really stressful. I am also trying to get back on track and find that I often will not think about what I am actually eating when I am either under a lot of stress or just when I am simply tired. I am trying to get in better touch with myself with these things are happening. I need to get back on to eating more whole plants instead of processed easy foods. Trying to also up my water (or hot tea) intake as I find I don't drink much water during the colder weather months. Thank you for sharing with us and for giving us words of encouragement as well! Take care :)
Wonderful video. Thank you so much. You are so strong. Glad that Ellie is doing better ❤️🍀
Please don't apologize, your followers understand and love you. My dog Buster is my baby and I cannot stand him being sick , it's scary because they can't tell us what's wrong and Dogs sometimes only show they are in pain by not eating or being lethargic.
Outlived 2 beloved dogs in my time . 💔
Going to store today to get potatoes to start over because nothing else has worked. My youngest son(40) has liver cirrhosis and I turn to food when waiting results on his latest scan. I need a way to find something besides food to help me. So I'm back to watch all your videos again. It was helping ..then covid and not going to store as much for fresh produce...I have a bag of excuses. I want to walk again , my weight makes it too hard.
Thank you for being there❤️
Im so sorry to hear how these past few months have been like for you 😔 Way to keep pressing forward & staying strong. Glad your pups is doing better 🤍 thanks for sharing your heart with us and we are here to cheer you on in the good & tough days! Great reminder to just love one another & be kind, cause we never know what someone else is going through 💗
I've had a horrible couple of years. But your positivity is helping. Thank you
So sorry to hear you have had such a tough time, so pleased little bear is home with you now. Take care 😘😘
The last year and half were incredibly difficult all around but specifically my moms declining health. My mom and best friend passed away June 2021. Food wise I was barely hanging on and did eat vegan junk which helped me to gain 15-20 lbs. I got back on track...not perfect...but much better. I have been on an emotional rollercoaster as have many others. I look to videos like this to help me stay on course. I wish you and all your followers physical and emotional stamina and health!
Great to see you back, you’re brave and honest and it’s going to help people for sure. I forgot about singing the baby bear song, we lost our dog in 2020 he was 12 and sick for a while but it was still the hardest decision I have ever had to make . Love your channel, Instagram and book!
I'm sorry you had to say goodbye to your 12 year old pup, it's never easy...losing a pet it's one of the most painful experiences I've ever had. More than people. Some may think that sounds terrible but our fur babies are tethered to our soul. And we have such a physical relationship with them too, not being able to smell them and hug them is the hardest part for me.
Welcome back. The year 2021 has sucks so bad. I am sorry you had a bad time.
I am trying to get back on track.
2021 seems to have been a giant collective piece of smelly poo for everyone. Getting back on track feels like a mountain to climb but I know you can do it. One small change at a time.
Best of wishes and much love out to you for doing these!
End of 2022 now and hoping that we see you back in 2023!
:)
Well done for getting through the year and back on track! Where did you get that mushroom gravy powder?
Woo Hoo! CELIBRATION! Getting back on track is always cause for celebration! So good to see you. I know what you mean when you say what a roller coaster it's been. Those of us who are addicted to eating to cope, get it. Glad your back. You have helped me so much... Good to see you... and Ellie. Missed you.
I am sorry you had such a rough 2021. I so appreciate your realism and honesty. I pray you are doing well. Like you said, we all fall down and it is about how we get back up. I hope baby bear (I guess little bear now, right?) is doing well with the health adjustment, and you as well for the stress and adjustment.
I hope you take the time you need and come back eventually. You are very inspiring and I would certainly appreciate someone who continues to share their journey on this lifestyle, even if they need a reset again. If UA-cam suits you and is favorable for your own accountability and purpose, of course. No matter what you choose to do, I wish you the best of luck and thank you for sharing your experiences with the potato reset and plant based lifestyle! ((Hugs))
Little bear is doing great! I plan to get back to UA-cam, I'm just not ready for it yet. Thanks for checking in!
Welcome back. There are so many of us in the same boat. Let's get rowing!
I'm so happy ur doggo is doing so much better! I sure hope 2022 is a lot kinder to all of us ❤
thank you - I really hope so too!
So so sorry for all your life trials…these things keep me from progressing as well…its the food and consistency that will help us succeed…bless and love you…
Yes.. I'm trying to stay focused on the consistency.. and remembering how horrible the junk made me feel. When I'm craving something I really feel into it... and remind myself how that junk makes me feel physically.
Sorry to hear about a crappy 2021… not fun!😏. It’s easy to get off track when our emotions are all over the place! I can really relate… my 2021 was good for a few months, lost 17lbs eating very simply & then vacation came in April and that started my “off track” rest of the year! Gained back 9lbs of that after We sold our home & downsized into a new one - huge regrets about that 😢.
But trying to get my emotions in check and moving forward- especially with my weight loss efforts!
I’m glad to see you back! Good for you! Good for us! WE can do this 🤗. One day at a time girl 💪🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🤗😇
Yes one day at a time, making food choices to enhance our life instead of bring us down!
Well done and I'm so pleased your Little Bear is better - we are so blessed to share our lives with these wonderful creatures - I would be lost without my two dogs, they keep me sane.
I was so proud of myself for staying on track all of 2020, with everything that was going on. Then Christmas 2020 came and I decided to “treat myself.” Well, I treated myself all of 2021 and gained back 40 pounds, all the weight I had lost. AH!!! I could live on junk food, REAL junk food, not vegan, and I did that for all of 2021. I’ve been back on track since January 3, hoping I stick with it this time.
Sammme! I was proud in 2020, being able to stay on track while all this crap was going on... yikes. I have swallowed my pride. I really wish junk food tasted like poop lol
@@PotatoWisdom Ha! I hear you, sister!
Glad to see you back. So sorry about your little bear but so happy he is doing well again. I have really messed up since the pandemic started. Even eating foods that are a no-no for a plant-based diet. I've put on 30 lbs in the last 2 yrs and I keep saying today is the day, but I just haven't gotten there yet. I love your videos, and will need to tune in for some inspiration. I've had some health issues and really need to get back on track. Again, happy to see you back.
Hi Pam, maybe today doesn't ever have to be "the day" maybe today's breakfast is where you start.
@@PotatoWisdom Oh, today is the day. I went shopping and stocked up on fresh veggies, fruit and a few recipes I want to try. Thanks for the encouragement.
Love you. 🤗 Prayers continued!
😘 thanks Amy
Oh my land! I watched a video you did of what you ate in a day and it helped me start my potato reset. You helped me then, and your video just helped me now. You are REAL! A real person with real struggles, just like all of us potato people. Thank you so much for your transparency. ❤🐾
2021 was great; I started my wfpb journey 4/6 after my NP wanted to put me on BP meds. It started at 142/92, last time I checked it was 115/75, my total cholesterol dropped 28 pts, blood sugar 4 (it' down to 80) and I released 48 lbs! It's been a little slow because I indulge in more homemade wfpb treats than I should but that's better than non-compliant treats. We do need to dispense more grace to ourselves don't we? You had a crisis with your baby, I'm so glad it all worked out - so scary! I'm proud of you getting back on track, you were missed!
What you say about compassion...so true. But you have to also have compassion for yourself. Thank you for sharing your story but you don't "owe" any explanations. I get that we wondered where you went....but you have to take care of yourself and your family (fur babies included). You are amazing and you are getting back your your roots (potato reset). Good luck and we appreciate whatever content you give us.
So glad you're back!☺️
So glad to see and hear you again 🤗💞! XOXO
All the best to ur doggie!!!!
I needed this !!
so glad you are back I also got off track and it is not easy to get back on track but I am back on track now I gained 8 pounds and when you are 5'1" it looks like 20 pounds with all the stress and worry of what is going on in the world it is time to destress and focus on me
I hope you are doing well. I am glad that Ellie is better. I hope that you plan on doing videos again.
So glad to hear Ellie made it through. You’re such a good mama. 💖
I definitely leaned a little too hard on the junk food in the past year and ended up with galbladder issues that I’m now trying to heal to avoid surgery. We got this! Xoxo
thank you Jenny 🥰 I'm all too familiar with the gallbladder issues, not fun!! I have been successfully avoiding surgery for 12+ years.
@@PotatoWisdom That’s awesome and very encouraging to hear!! XOXO
2021 has been rough for me too - we lost our precious kitty, O'Malley, to congestive heart failure - that was totally shocking and out of the blue. We'd had him for 9.5 years. We struggled with fertility - both getting and staying pregnant - it has been rough. And, my 2 year-old broke his leg New Year's Day :( Although, happy news, I am now 23 weeks pregnant and all is well on that front. We have definitely succumbed to comfort eating and junk food. We are starting to get back on track. Sending you lots of love!
Be really positive about what’s happening around…. Let’s pray and hope 🌷🌷🌷
Mwah 😘 glad you’re back and doing better! Love ya!🥳♥️🥰🤩✨
Thanks for sharing your struggles. This last year has been a lot. Mom moved in with me on hospice, My husband and I cared for her a year on hospice until she passed while I was holding her hand. This has really set my self care back. She will be gone 1 yr on 2-2-22. I'm still struggling. Your video made me see that I am being really hard in myself. Thanks for getting back on utube. I have always drawn motivation from you.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Grief is hard and everyone handles it differently. Be gentle and patient with yourself 😘 and start slow.
You and me, I'm resetting, did so well for so long, then so many problems came in a bunch along with multi-injuries that hindered my mobility, and I just shut down and went off track.
I lost so much weight so fast about 4 years ago, it was unbelievable at my age. i know the potato cleansing is the only way for my body as I have tried every diet during my lifetime and the diet of all veg/fruit/potato no fats, worked and will work again.
I didn't gain back all of my weight but, enough that my energy is so low- Good luck to us getting with the program once again!
Welcome dear sweetheart back🌿🌸🌿
Be confident in what you will do again after such a sad time you went through.
Little by little you'll feel it's time to start again and things will get better. So, dear Jeannine, be confident. I wish you all the very best.
Hugs to you and Ellie ❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️
thank you 😘
Please come back😊 love your content and happy to know baby pup is better.
Working on it! Just have had a lot going on. Ellie and June bug are doing well. Unfortunately Penny passed away last year, we miss her so much - she was the sweetest dog I've ever had in my life. I have loads I want to share. I may just have to rip off the bandaid and make a video without overthinking it.
Happy to see that you and Ellie are back. :)
Thank you!
For four years I’ve been off my most happy routine of total compliance & exercise. Mostly off the exercise & on some alcohol. I’ve been caring for my cancer patient mother. Her 1st major surgery sent her into early dementia. Even though she was 75 - It was so gut wrenching as she had some scary hallucinations . Things have gotten better though, she’s pretty high functioning now and she has no evidence of cancer, but will remain on oral chemo for the rest of her life. I had to put my 19 yo cat down - that was devastating . Happy for your Ellie Bear 💗
That's so much to take on, I just can't even begin to imagine how difficult that is to take care of a parent. Losing a pet is hard and incredibly painful. My heart goes out to you. Hopefully you're able to get back to your happy routine again.
some people eat to help with stress (me included). Like you say it'll go away.. I personally need to get out of my rut.. but as for the future how can we stop the cycle of comfort eating, other than chanting or reminding ourselves to stay on track no matter what. Good to see you back.
The only way I know to stop the cycle is to put a stick in the spoke. The Potato Reset does me so much good, the first 3-5 days SUCK.. but once I get past that it's a little easier. Cravings eventually quiet down the less you give into them. This might be a good video topic which I can elaborate on. By no means am I an expert but I have a lot of experience.
We are friends on FB, we have seen each other go through so much, I feel like 2022 is our year. Just so you know you’re 1 of my favorite humans on the planet 🌎
I'm so sorry you went thru all of that and I'm glad Ellie is better and you're better too. I'm sorry people think they have any right to be so hateful and thank you for sharing your trials, it helps all of us. Hugs!
I think some people just don't understand ... and they think they are being helpful . Hugs to you too, thank you for the encouragement!
@@PotatoWisdom people are so unkind. I just don't get it. Makes me sad.
Hi Jeannine, I hadn’t watched you in quite awhile, so didn’t realize you were gone…sorry🥺 Glad your pup 🐶 is OK. Nice video, sorry you had a negative comment. I don’t understand why people have to be be rude and unkind. If you don’t have something nice to say… just keep your thoughts to yourself, right? 🙄👍Have a wonderful weekend. 🤗🌴💕🌸
O yes, that voice that tells you it's just once, you'll soon get back on track. And it doesn't work out like that. Been there - too damned often xx
That's the one! It's a liar... always up to no good
2021 treated me slowly but surely….following Ups and Dawns🌿🌷🌿 challenging everyone 🌼🌼🌼
You described it all so well, it's the drug we choose but we dont make a conscious decision to feed ourselves rubbish. My 19yr cat had a tumour removed, I was already struggling but nursing this poor animal, regretting my decision. The guilt!. Took 5 wks to get over the surgery. She is great, Mrs treacle, and beginning her 20th year. My son went missing before christmas and I was crushed. He turned up eventually in a paris hospital from the uk. He had a break down and memory loss. We cant cry all the time so we eat yuk stuff to keep us in holding pattern. If we could stop we would, but then something happens to shake us. So proud that I have been on remission frm my diabetes, but after the endless sandwiches it's back, feel crap and my liver is fat like me. Been strong for the last 3 weeks, spoken to my 42 yr old wanderer on the phone, but he will be a la fancaise for some time. Its gonna be a hard slog back. We need to care about each other and now my eyes are leaking again.....love you,everyone
It's so draining to nurse a pet back to health but so worth it. I'm glad she's doing well!
I just saw the part about your son, I'm sorry you went through that.
Hi Sweetie, so so happy Little Bear pulled through. My 2 dogs are my babies at 16!! I eat vegan junto food All the time. So happy All is better. Beautiful dogs!
I legit wish junk food actually made me healthy... I would be SO HAPPY! Aww, what kind of dogs do you have?
@@PotatoWisdom My babies are pit and a Mutt lol
It’s ok to struggle but it’s not ok to give up on yourself or your dreams ...

I’m sure most of us watching you have similar issues with food. Wishing you peace in 2022 ❤️
I had to do a little soul searching to get back on track this year too. Covid is taking its toll on all of us !
It sure has been a strange time for us all. I'm glad you're finding your footing again
Great message Jeanine! In a time of craziness and unpredictabilty, if we can't be anything else, always be kind 🌻 so Glad Ellie is back to her rambunctious self🧡
Some don't believe it's true addiction I believe it's true addiction!
That's an unfortunate truth which makes it even harder to deal with.
I love my cats. They are my world, and always worry about them.
❤️
There's nothing to apologize for. Take care of your health and get plenty of rest.
I’m so glad. Ellie is OK. And yep u do not need to apologise. We are all human and most of us have been struggling.
😘 Ellie sends a big squishy face-plant kiss your way
@@PotatoWisdom back at her with a giant squishy hug.

haha! Gotta love Instagram captions!!
Look, you don't owe us anything. We watch your videos, we enjoy your content but you take care of yourself and your family first. We'll still be here.
More potatoes 🥔 darling!
What a rotten time you've had. Look after yourself xx
😘 Onwards and upwards now
fast food is my drug of choice - once I start is hard to stop going through the drive through - I got back on track in 2021 and lost what I gained plus 10 more. It's funny, if someone presented us with choice - do you want to feel awful or amazing, it would be easy. But instead it's just a small decision here and there that lands us back into that pit.
That's a good way of putting it! We certainly wouldn't choose "yes I want to feel like shit and gain weight" yet the addiction can be so strong that it's ignored (or the little lies kick in).
Did you disappear again!?
I did 😑
I lost my guinea pig Chewie last year in December and I'm still not okay. I totally get it as I was not as kind to myself either when grieving. I did get out of the black hole and started eating better.
I eat whole food plant based and I gained weight anyway
like rice and bananas so weird!
You could try Dr Fuhrman’s approach
@Potato Wisdom I tried it for 10 days. I just finished 3 days ago.
I didn't lost weight
I had 1 cup of beans 2 a days. The rest was raw and cooked vegetables.
Again I think that I eat way too much... but when I try to eat less few days after I binge eat like crazy
I m sooo lost
You could try Quinoa and Sweet potatoe and a lot greens, l lost 5 kg in 3 day's, shocked me, don't wantet to loose, I want to fix my Microbione. Wish you all the best 💞
and no more videos for 5 months again, hmmm, im thinking something happened again, perhaps, the dog?
What I find is working really well for me (loosing 15lbs so far) in 4 months (it’s not a quick loss but it’s fairly steady) is a varied Intermittent fasting lifestyle. I can still eat the foods that I love and my body is healing from the inside out because fasting allows you to get into a ketosis state. My suggestion is read one of Gin Stephen’s books (Fast feast Repeat, Delay Don’t Deny or Feast without Fear). I only read the Fast Feast Repeat one and it is amazing! It really explains why “eating less and moving more” mantra actually slows your metabolism over time and eventually you will have to eat less and less so that you can continue to loose the weight. Fasting on the other hand (most people do 16:8 or 20:4) allows your metabolism to quicken and so it will benefit those who want to loose weight or get healthier. Also, your body can go into autophagy which allows your body’s older not so great cells to be renewed or recycled which can allow all sorts of areas in your body to begin to heal. I’ve heard of skin tags falling off, scars healing, pain and inflammation decreased or eliminated and a whole bunch more. Check out one of Gin’s books! She speaks very down to earth and explain the scienc-y parts really well too. Also I love her podcast ‘Intermittent Fasting Stories’. I find them very inspirational.
I love potatoes but I can’t imangine living on them or mostly them with some veggies in the side for the rest of my life. Maybe you all can and that’s great. But what I see happening to a lot of people is that they eat this way for a few months to drop weight or get healthier but it’s not a sustained loss as soon as they start eating more variety (or cheating) the weight starts creeping back on. If you can do it as a lifestyle then go for it! I would like to implement Intermittent fasting for the rest of my life (easy to say now as I have just started I know) but I feel great while fasting and I still eat what I want (as long as I don’t over do it of course) in my eating window.
Even if I stop loosing weight.. I’ll do it for the food freedom. If my eating window is closed for the day.. it’s like a vault… nothing goes in even if there is a yummy dessert staring at me in the fridge. I can “delay” but not deny that dessert… and eat it in my eating window tomorrow. (As long as my kids don’t eat it first!)
Living this way takes the decision making out of the picture “should I eat that brownie of those yummy crunchie air fried potatoes or shouldn’t I?” Now it’s… “yup I will eat them because that’s what I want to eat in my window today.. and I think I’ll have the black bean brownie after for dessert too!” Or “nope, my eating window is closed for today. I think I’ll make that for my lunch or dinner tomorrow”.
Nobody needs to take my advice but let me tell you.. I have found sooo much freedom living this way. All the best ya’all!
I’m so glad to get caught up with you, I’ve missed u girl. Email me if you like since I’m off the internet
My last 2 years was utterly terrible, got allergic reaction to my jab, gauned 40kgs bedridden, neuro problems,paralysed chest and autoimmune disease with dysautonomia ans now MECFS. About to start potato reset to fix my leaky gut which docs suspect caused my reaction. Wish me luck!!!
I'm so sorry you have had a rough 2 years. Good luck with your potato reset, I hope it helps.
