Me personally, I started losing the most weight after reading the book Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth, a few things you are mentioning in this video are also in the book
not being confident is probably the worst feeling ever. looking in the mirror, no matter what you wear nothing makes you look good😭 hitting that plateau IS THE WORST & sooo unmotivating😭🥺
Omg yes! I hated being in that mindset where no matter what I wore I didn’t feel even decently pretty because of how unhealthy I felt inside 😭 yes!! It’s so discouraging! 😩
- commitment and patience - moderation with food(healthy relationship with food) - weight yourself once a week but don’t get obsessed with it - eat breakfast to not have a big lunch and dinner. It’s also quite important - breakfast: full - lunch: healthy food - dinner: lightest meal of the day - in the begging she did cardio and fat burn workout - waterrrrrr - cute workout clothes to motivate to workout - supportive bra - no equipment in the begging but she bought dumbbells, ankle weights, resistance bands and yoga mats - music
Girl you got this! 💪🏽 there’s no better dedication than doing it for yourself. It’s crazy how you can actually notice a difference in so many things you never realize you experienced before. I used to have trouble falling asleep because I could feel my weight on myself & as I slowly started losing weight I could literally feel myself becoming less heavy & sleeping came a little easier for me. I believe in you girl 🥰 do what feels right for you!
Omg same I’m at 237 last week and a half I started at 243 I’ve been working out everyday eating clean & less. But I still get fatigued getting dressed or like you mentioned putting lotion on. It’s like a workout in itself. Man gaining weight is so easy but loosing it is pure hell until you put that dress or jeans on and notice a little difference then that right there will be motivation!!! That sets me off to go hard because I’m actually seeing results. Edit* down to 229! And I’m on a roll🧡
Omg yes! I always tell ppl that it's hard to touch my toes without becoming short of breath. I'm 220 and 5'5... but last year before social distancing, I was 165 😭
@@Kiara-ut2oo are you me? Same exact measurements. I actually got up to 249 but I started keto and workout in February. I lost 30 pounds that month and stopped, then I restarted this month and I’m down to 213 today!! I’m so happy.
@@11212barbie you need to be eating carbs for the energy!! trust me :) as long as you’re in a caloric deficit you’ll lose weight!! good job on the progress tho!!
Just remember that ice doesn’t melt until the temperature hits 32 degrees F. Weight loss is like being an ice block at 25 degrees F. You may not see the visible work from 25-31 degrees, but that work is necessary to get you to 32 degrees when the changes really happen.
Yes! being addicted to junk food is a REAL thing. People always think its as simple as just not eating the junk food. Sugar is addicting, and junk is very addicting. It takes time, but it doable to cut it out :)
when she talked about eating a whole box of pizza, it really got me alert because I USED TO DO THAT AND NOT THINK ANYTHING OF IT! i’m 60 pounds down and i can’t eat more than like 3 slices. i would order like 20 wings and eat it by myself. this is such an unhealthy relationship with food
It’s possible guys, I weighed 210lbs in January of 2024, and now almost 5 months later I weigh 162lbs in June 2024 my goal is 150lbs before August!🎉 (48lbs lost)
@@janessalopezzz thanks! right now I’m not done with my journey but I can tell my I have lose skin when I sit, but it’s not that noticeable even when I sit. But remember to never be ashamed! That’s proof of your success in your journey, of course there are ways to remove it but never feel forced to. Hope that helps! 🩷
@@RosiesArt28omg thank you so much for replying, it means a lot! i was really nervous about that stuff so i'll try to find ways to prevent it as much as possible but you're absolutely right, it's just a reminder of how far we've come which is beautiful!
Congratulations on your weight loss journey! And I want to congratulate anyone who's starting because that alone is a lot. One of the biggest advice I could give to someone who wants to lose weight is to be ambitious but not TOO overly ambitious when you first start. Be realistic with yourself. If you are rarely active, don't set yourself up to run 3 miles a day or go to the gym everyday to do hardcore workouts. You will just mentally and physically exhaust yourself and you'll hate all the pain you're feeling and that may even stop you from pursuing a healthy life style. Instead, take walks! Try to aim for 5,000 steps a day then increase to 10,000. Eventually you'll slowly build up your stamina and then you can start jogging/running when you feel ready. Don't cut out all sugary/junk food immediately too because your body (and mind) will experience shock. Instead, slowly ease out of it and decrease your size and intakes. PLEASE don't immediately jump to eating salads or all the healthy food we see everybody eat when they wanna lose weight. That's something you can also ease into later. Just count your calories instead! As someone who was overweight, struggled years of trying to lose weight, and was very physically inactive, this advice of being ambitious but realistic helped a lot!
PREACH!!! 👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽 easing into a weightloss journey is the best motto to go by! Quitting everything cold Turkey will only make you cave sooner & pushing yourself to do more than your body can handle will not go well either. You said it all so perfectly ❤️ thank you so much for sharing your advice with everyone 🙌🏽
A million percent agree. I lost so much and I’m close to my dream body but not there yet and not completely in love yet but loving the progress. Went from 250 to 180. Trying to lose 10 more lbs along with toning up
ive seen so many videos on youtube about these skinny girls loosing pounds, but they looked like they were already skinny enough, not to be harmful at all, but it feels so good to see someone in my weight range do this, it really just makes me want to cry happy tears knowing that someone like me could do the same regardless of being extremely skinny or extremely fat and that it is in fact very possible.
Yes remember it’s you against that extra fat! Push you’re to push them out, don’t forget you’re beat full, we just have extra fat and for me it got the point where I was like 😟 stopppp you’re getting too much now. Running everyday for a little is something, even going on a walk. Make it fun and go with someone, the world is beautiful, I love walking and exploring now😭😊
the number on the scale is probably our worst enemy tbh. sometimes your clothes fits looser and the number doesn’t go down.😭 yes i agree weighing yourself once a week or twice a month is so much better than doing it every single day.
the number isn’t really important, get a scale that calculates body fat percentage and muscle mass! game changer for sure! remember that fat weighs more than muscle!!
fr. i used to do it every day and yes i did lose 10 lbs but i never exercised again since that month, i just remember i was so depressed and obsessive about my weight that i stopped caring again for 2 years lol. tomorrow is another day
The scale number is not nearly as scary as the cholesterol number, the blood sugar number, the blood pressure number, and (in my case) the kidney number. I had high cholesterol, was pre-diabetic, and had an EGFR of 59.1. Now I have normal blood sugar, normal cholesterol and an EGFR of 84. I am sure most of you haven't even thought about your kidneys or possibly livers when it comes to weight. These things are likely not a concern must at all until you hit your 30s (maybe I'm wrong on that and it can hit earlier) but it happens from decades of bad life style choices. The scale is just the most easily tracked indication that your health is at risk. Amazon has glucometers for $25-30. If your blood sugar readings indicate prediabetes, you are already doing organ damage. Your doc might not even tell you until your diabetic. Over 80 percent of those with prediabetes don't even know they have it. Anyway, there are far worse number enemies out there I actually hate to say.
Amazing video, I gained 50lbs over lockdown, started my journey 3 weeks ago and am down 3.8lbs :) Hope to lose at least another 36.2lbs ! UPDATE: I AM DOWN 17lbs now :)
@@jenthealien8888 That’s actually really good. If you’re a woman (I’m assuming you are) then we tend to retain a lot of fat, so 1 to 2 lbs every week is normal.
Im 5’5 and was 258lbs in April, today I am 232lbs. I love feeling healthier in general. I go rock climbing, jog/walk, weight lifting, and floor exercises. I also cut out all fast food/junk food and learned how to cook. Getting more protein in, drinking water, and taking vitamins:) super important. It’s just hard cuz I can’t see a difference in myself but I see myself everyday and I’ve lost some inches it’s just I can’t see it. So I’m very hard on myself.
I felt this! I am also so hard on myself. I say i don’t “see it” but when I look at videos from a year ago, I don’t compare videos to what I look like now- but I see it. Just seeing how my face looks now versus last year. The problem is that we get in our heads a lot but best believe, if you’re putting in the work, deep down you see it. Sending lots of positive vibes! It’s not easy but so worth it! ♥️
Your dependence on hot Cheetos was how dependent I was on processed sugar foods, candy, chocolate, energy drinks, and the same thing happened to me. The moment I gave those things up I started having outbursts and I kept crying and just even having negative thoughts as I walked into the gym. I never realized I used sugar as a coping mechanism to not feel certain things or think certain things. This was a great video! Keep up the great work!
an entire box of pizza, plus a big af bag of hot Cheetos, plus dessert. sounds like something i do. this is the reality of binge eaters. Thank you for sharing. I'm starting my weight loss journey so it's comforting to see and listen to someone who's been where I'm at.
My heaviest was 230 i lost 30lbs and ended up gaining back 5lbs and have hit a plateau for a while now. Its really discouraging. Congratulations on your weight loss
This is the part that is always challenging & discouraging 😭 but we gotta keep pushing through & remember that weight doesn’t always matter 🥺 because you might be losing inches instead of pounds & as long as you feel good & healthy that’s what matters 💖
i recently started my journey, i started at 213 and i’m down to 203 🤠 this week has been rough and i’ve been close to quitting, but this has just motivated me and made me feel like the feelings i’m going through are valid

Girl when you said it's you showing up for youself everyday I FELT that. Because it is the truth, it is so difficult some days but honestly they way that you feel about yourself regardless of the physical changes you start to love yourself because of the hard things you force yourself to do. You find your strength, self-love and confidence within this journey 💖
I used this motivation. I watched this video when I first started my weight loss journey, I have officially went from 178 to 143 (both morning weigh ins) in a few months :) my results came kinda fast but I'm at a plateau. I'm gonna use this for motivation tysm
GURLLLLLLL YESSSS 👏🏽👏🏽🥳😍 YOU DID THAT!! 💖💖 I’m so happy for you & honored I could play a part in it 🥺 keep going🙌🏽 plateaus are always a struggle but you can get through it 😁 I’m currently trying jump rope as a workout 😉 thank you so much for taking the time to watch 🥰
@@CrystalValenzuela I'm definitely gonna keep pushing! I don't want to look back on this moment and regret not going forward. I've heard jump roping is great good luck with that!
UA-cam is definitely telling me something with this recommendation because you had me in the first minute!! Everything you were saying is so accurate. I was the exact same before and during my weight loss journey. 40 lbs down and still going
CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🥳🥳 40lbs down is awesome!!! Nothing better than the feeling of seeing & feeling your hard work pay off 🙌🏽 so proud of you! 👏🏽👏🏽 thank you so much for watching! 🥺💖
I love your motto “show up for yourself” because at the end of the day all your hard work is to help yourself out. It also gives you a sense of accountability. Great job on your weight lose👏☺️
Yes it’s about wanting to live and not die 😭 I was almost 200 pounds with my body hurting bones hurting always tired. I was killing myself with binge eating. Started hiking a lot and dropped so much weight I’m at 154 now and love hiking. I eat smaller meals drink so much water. Also starting to weight lift since you drop a lot of weight with weight lifting and toning your body. If I can do it so can you. Motivate yourself by wanting to live and not die. ❤️🙏🏼🏋🏻♀️
the thing that’s so confusing about weight loss is that sometimes you lose inches off your body but your weight stays the same! but please don’t be discouraged that’s why it’s good to always take measurements and pictures because it makes u feel better seeing progress!
Loved how you explained the healthy relationship with food 🙌🏻. You still ate the foods you loved- just in moderation. You explained such a realistic way to handle food. A lot of peoples will say oh you can’t eat that or can’t eat this 😒. And that’s where people find themselves going back to old eating habits because of the ‘pressure’.
all in moderation yes !! being too strict with yourself can be so damaging to your mental health, having a healthy & balanced relationship with food is a constant journey but so worth it !
I love how you did all your workouts from home and you didn’t mention getting a gym membership! I literally have 2 gym memberships and I don’t even go to one 😭😭 I need to start working out from home lol and by some equipment!
Yess!! I honestly tried gyms & they’re not for me. I just waste my money & never end up going either 🤣 you can buy equipment for yourself at home & save the money from the gyms 🙌🏽
Amazing job on your weight loss!!! I'm currently going through my journey, I'm 50 pounds down and I have another 50 to go but I'm definitely getting there. I find it's definitely helping me more that I'm posting my journey here on UA-cam and I have other people helping and motivating me to work harder and that I'm not alone in this.
i’m 5’5 1/2, 215 , 17 y/o . i’ve always been the biggest and it’s always been an insecurity because family never failed to point it out but coming to God made me want to bring my body into subjection and respect it 🦋! hopefully my mind changes and it becomes for the right reason💕!
Weight loss for me has been one of my biggest goals for as long as I can remember. I remember doing a lot of diets and working out and for some reason the moment someone mentioned I started looking thinner, I would fall out and gain the same or more weight,. I never knew why until I watched your video. My confidence in my teenage years was almost non-existent, no matter how many compliments I would get I would feel like the biggest thing ever. I have seen many videos about how people lost weight fast, what to eat, how to workout, etc. but felt like nothing worked. I took a long break on my weight loss journey and as I watched your video I realized it's really a mental thing, just as it is physical. This video made me realize so many things and reminded me that I am not alone. This is really helpful and helped me get my confidence up to go for it again. Thank you for sharing your story ❣
I have been on my weight loss journey for almost 4 years now, and I am stuck at this point. I watched this for motivation, and it reminded me of the times from the beginning of my journey when I was very motivated. I am very happy to see that I have almost every piece of equipment on the list :))))
I peaked at 252 back in 2023. After 13 months of work, commitment, and a lot of changes, I’m down to 184-ish today. Everyone’s weight loss is different! Mine was spurred on by working hot days in the oilfield, huge deficits, and diet changes. To the person reading this, I absolutely believe in you. You’re stronger than you know! Keep fighting the good fight!
"You showing up for yourself" are the greatest words spoken. Thank you for the inspiration because I've been in this place over and over. What has helped me to strive and press forward is knowing that I love myself and my family and I don't want to be selfish because of my unhealthy relationship with food. So I'm still pressing forward a step every day towards a healthy lifestyle and not just looking good. I want to feel good inside and out. I want to be able to do things with my grandchildren. I'm 45 years young and I want to live a full life without pain, sickness and feeling fatigued and so tired. Thank you again for sharing your journey because it's not easy and we will fall down. But getting back up makes it all the sweeter. So now I pray over my health and life to change for the better so I can walk in my purpose. I can't do that being unhealthy and tired. May God bless your journey and keep you grounded. I'm showing up for myself so I can show up for my family and Kingdom work!
If anyone is looking for some extra motivation 🥺💖 I just started a new series on my channel called Motivational Mondays & I will be posting a new video every Monday related to working out & basically just inspiring each other to set our goals & go after them 🥳💪🏽 I post videos twice a week (Monday’s& Friday’s) 😁 check it out besties! 🥰
Love this. I also hate breakfast, I struggle with IBS. I do IF, I break my fast at 12 or 1. Fasting is good for your body, don't force yourself to eat if you don't have to. Dr Jason Fung has a channel on here and discusses fasting, maybe you can check him out.
Omg I just started following Body Project videos about two weeks ago & I love it!!! I’m 5”0 & was at my heaviest, 186 in May. Idk how much I weighed a few weeks ago but I am at about 180 (181-182 thanks to my period). I definitely love myself so I know I deserve a better healthier lifestyle. Thank you for sharing your journey, this motivates me even more 💕
I'm currently at 212 lb the heaviest I've been. I have always had a bad body image even when I was 123 lb. But recently I've been feeling the effects of my weight in my knees, and noticed I stopped taking pictures of myself. I really want to start being healthier and more confident.
Omg I loved your video. I usually get so bored but your voice was really soothing. It really helps rn I’m at 220 lbs I’m 5’3 and this is my heaviest. I been dealing with health problems a lot depression and anxiety. Thank you for sharing your journey. This is going to be my year!!!!! 2022
OK first off huge congratulations, that is such a big milestone to reach! I am so proud of you! I love that you shared everything that you’ve done from your personal experience! I have honestly made the mistake of weighing myself every single day whenever trying to lose weight, and they can be discouraging so my mom always told me to just weigh once a week as well!

Oh my word...I have never seen a weight loss video that actually is EXACTLY the same as my life!!! I am just now starting back but I have been raking with my eating and weight gain FOR YEARS. I have food addictions bad...and I would work out hard then sneak food immune room. Wow! Thank you so much doe this! I'm scared to try again but I HAVE to do this if I want to live! 💖
I had no idea you struggled with loosing weight, this is very inspirational to everyone starting their weigh loss journey and the fact that you look and are doing much better is such a motivation!! 👏🏽
*Your weight loss journey is a testament to dedication and hard work. Thanks for sharing your story and motivating us to achieve our own health goals!*
I give you a lot of credit Crystal for saying what you would eat before you lost weight. I've watched a ton of UA-camrs weight lost journeys and not many do that. Congrats! I been keto/carnivore for 3 months now, I am 6'0 and i was 310lbs now I'm 284lbs. I just start 2 meals a day 1 week ago and some days 1 meal a day. I used to live off of pizza, fast food, stk n chz, ice cream sundeas, and king size candy bars everyday.
Girl, you are so articulate. I normally dislike watching videos of people talking because it just sounds like they are rambling but I really enjoyed your video! 😊
I relate to this so much and what you said is all so true. I literally teared up at the old clip of you saying we’re going to do this we’re going to make it this is our year. So proud of you for showing up for yourself it’s so beautiful to see.
I’m on a weight loss journey right now and of course I needed to watch this after finding your channel. I have also tried so many times to lose weight, this was so relatable to me ! Love that you shared this, I need to be more consistent and stick with it for sure. Your transformation is awesome, very motivating.
So sorry it took me so long to respond but thank you so much for your sweet message!! 🥺💖 consistency is definitely the key & I know you can do it! The hardest part is always starting but once you get going you feel so good about it🙌🏽👏🏽
“There’s no secret” This is so true! My mum lost weight and people always asked her how. She wasn’t even trying to but she had a change in food! Well said
Thank you! I needed this! I weighed 187 after pregnancy, and just last week I started keto, and I bought an exercise bike. I lost 13lbs in 8 days. I feel a lot better so far, but my goal weight is 140-150. I just need to get rid of my chest.
yesss having a small dinner or even no dinner at all is such a game changer & gives your body enough time to digest your food properly, although we be going to sleep hungry .. 🤣
Thank you for being so vulnerable because all of us as humans, go through similar body struggles and learning how to just be confident and love our bodies that we've had been blessed with! Din things for the sake of overall health is always a better way to approach it rather than just losing and managing your intake to fit a certain "ideal' body type that we were taught was the most beautiful. Home workouts have become my fav during the second half of quarantine and now I do them to be strong!! Proud of you girl💛 You're going to inspire so many!!!
Wow you explained everything so throughly and detailed, we are literally going through the same journey! Congratulations girl, I loved your story, you look so amazing!!!
Thank you for telling how patience was so important to your weight loss. I feel like patience for myself making changes and patience for the timeline is what I need to make it work.
Thank you for sharing your story! It was so motivational and I’ll be implementing some of what you said in my personal weight loss journey. My goal is to be 138 Lbs on the dot and to see you reach that is so motivational. It’s such a random number but I’ve been fixated on that number because for someone who’s 5 feet 4 I feel like it’s a realistic goal. I feel like the the BMI chart is so unrealistic and unhealthy so I’m going based off of a weight I was most happy at which was 138. I’m currently 184 Lbs. I started my weight loss journey 10 days ago at 189 Lbs. Thanks again !
YESSSS I LOVE THAT!! Do what feels right for your body 🙌🏽🥺 the number on the scale is just a number it’s about how you feel physically & mentally. You can so do it! I believe in you! Whenever you have moments of doubt just remember how good you felt to see yourself make the progress you’ve already made 💪🏽✨
thank you for this video ❤️ yesterday at 3 am I was so motivated to start eating healthier and exercising (as one does) but when I woke up today I had pastries for breakfast and I felt bad, like I couldn't stick to my goals and I was weak. hearing you say you were addicted to some foods and you couldn't just cut them out made me feel understood and I realize I'll have to allow myself some of my favorite fast foods because I'm used to eating them all the time now and it's a complex and delicate journey. I hope I can change and be more comfortable in my own skin, you definitely inspired me ❣️
This is some solid advice 🥺 I’ve been working out on and off for a year now. I was just working out and not changing my diet.... biggest waste of time lol. You literally cannot out train a bad diet! I’m starting to focus more on my eating habits now & I’ve noticed such a change! Growing up in a Mexican household I was always told to finish everything on my plate. I would get in trouble if I didn’t.. so I’ve always had that mindset. Now I’m starting to understand that our bodies let us know when we are full and we should respect that. Respect ourselves enough to listen to our own bodies. I’ve been eating in moderation I think the final straw for me was one night I finished an entire plate of carne asada fries by myself ☹️ . I was drunk and I’m not gonna lie it did hit the spot LOL, butttt I just remember feeling disgusted w myself the next day. Before I would only have a couple bites and I would feel full. Now I’m cutting everything I used to be able to eat in half and honestly it’s working! I’m starting to feel satisfied & I don’t get as hungry as I used to. Drinking a lot of water has also been helping me. Thank you for your advice! Good luck to all of you watching & reading the comments 🤩 WE GOT THISSS!!
My breaking point was when I could barely get down to tie my shoes and was out of breath. I’m at 218lbs right now, my goal weight is 135. Which is how much I weighed before gaining relationship weight and gained weight in 2 pregnancies within 4 years
Girl- Before you even said it ... I said in my mind SHE FIT. I saw the same ad and purchased and that bra is a game changer. I love the full adjustable set up with all the bands as I am losing weight.
That bra is EVERYTHING!! 🥺🙌🏽 really be coming thru on the fitness journeys. It’s the one ad I don’t mind that I got 🤣🤣 lol thank you so much for watching! 🥰
thank you so much for your video. I am 240 pounds, i gained 45 pounds in the last year. Today is the 4th day on my weight loss journey. I am fasting 20 hours a day and eating a large healthy meal after the 20 hours then i’m back to fasting. I drink a LOT of water and i started going to the gym 4 days ago as well. Exercising and dieting & hoping to see some progress within the next couple months!! CONSISTENCY is what i keep telling myself. I’ve never “completed” anything in my life. I always give up but i’m determined. i’m tired of being fat & not confident. These types of videos keep me motivated so i thank you ❤ i’m proud of you!! it’s not easy!
I love chick-fil-a! A low-calorie meal that I love there is the grilled chicken sandwich and instead of fries get an 8 count grilled chicken nuggets. It's lower in calories and a good amount of protein!
Finally someone who has the same body type and even looks like me! I need to lose at least 80 - 60 lbs! My health is at an all time low. Thank you for your story and for the inspiration
I’m so glad I came across this video! I’ve been searching and searching for a quick fix but you’re so right. Today is the day. I’m done feeling the way I’ve been feeling. ❤️❤️❤️
I love how you explained the healthy relationship with food, I think you put it the best way possible, and definitely yes everything in moderation. Cute gym clothes is a very good motivator indeed! 🥰😄 You've come such a long way, I'm so happy to see you happier and healthier! 💕
I want to congratulate you on your weight loss journey. STARTING is hard enough, but to put it on youtube for the WORLD to see? INSPIRING. I'm also documenting my journey on my channel & seeing this is MOTIVATING.
I think knowing the statistics on calroies in food and how much you need to burn a day to lose weight is what helped me. Being in the dark and just trying to do what people say is good for me never helped me. My fitness pal and Fitbit have definitely helped me in so many ways in learning what to eat, what not to eat, how much I need to exercise a day, etc. Another thing I don’t think people ever think about is drinking water. Drink half of your body weight in ounces everyday and you’ll already start to lose weight from that alone. I’m down 14 pounds from my original weight currently so I’m still in the beginning of my journey but so far just understanding the numbers had helped me understand what I need to do and motivated me.
I am 19 and got pregnant and had an abortion in December, it emotionally wrecked me and I gained 20 pounds hitting 240 now I’m 230 but I am trying to finally get to a better place physically and mentally, I loved your video thank you sm for sharing your story and motivating me
I have to say that you need to give yourself some grace. Focus on the positive things that you are able to do, ie...continuing your education or getting a decent job and starting an emergency fund so that you are in a better place financially 1 year or 3 years from now. Love yourself, be good to yourself and know that you are enough! ❤💃 You got this!
Girl yes! You are goals! All your self love was your motivation. I’m trying to cut off junk food in moderation like you said. It’s the working out part I keep getting lazy about. I need that healthy diet you have. You speak nothing but the truth. Thank you for this video ❤️

thank you for this video and for promoting having a healthy relationship with food. When I was deep in my eating disorder and food addiction I didn't think this was possible and the advice I got was to cut out any foods that I binged on. But all that did was keep me in fear and restriction. What I know now that I have gotten free from the eating disorder and food addiction is that it was never about the food, it was always about getting free from what was driving me to food in the first place and reconnecting with myself, my body and my own inner guidance. thanks for an inspiring video.
Crystal - What a great message you share in this video. In a world where we all want instant gratification - you shared the truth about the fact that it isn't a miracle but a Journey! I know we all want a quick fix when we see someone who has lost the weight & gotten in shape - but you are clear proof that by embracing the journey the best you can & taking your time you Will get results and lasting results at that! Thank you for sharing your journey and all of your realistic, healthy advice - I really appreciate it!
i lost 20 lbs in one month , and i’m at a plateau 😭 i was getting discouraged until i seen this video, i want to say thank you i started crying from your encouragement , i also have a unhealthy relationship with food , i’m a very picky eater so i can relate lol i hope i start to see progress as i continue. i’m not giving up , i’m like you this time i mean business 😂❤ again thanks . i’m gonna continue to always show up for myself and do like you say from now on 💗
I'm starting my loss weight journey ✨ this is my 4th day so far... I feel pretty good and your video helped me to understand that I don't need to deprived myself and have a negative relationship with food. Thank you ❤️
I’ve always had troubles with my weight, always saying “when I reach this high I’m going to work out” I never did 😭. I hit 225 and was miserable, I would cry about how big I was. I’m 5’8 so I don’t really appear big but in my teens I want to take care of myself, making sure I will continue further when in adulthood. Thank you to everybody in the comments and this video, the tips and advice were very motivating. This helped me realize what I was doing wrong. I lost 2.1 pounds so far from JustFit. I’m starting to try doing 5,000 steps a day and weight lifting if I can. I would always eat cookies nonstop and use the excuse “I just worked out it’s fineeee,” so thanks for the beautiful women giving do’s and don’ts. I’m not a breakfast person either too! I only ate it when I would cook it for my baba too. Making these changes and routines will be hard, but I’m done with hating myself and being miserable. It may take a long time, but the outcome is what drives you to success! I hope everyone has a fantastic day! ❤❤😊
This video made me cry (in a good way) the realest video I’ve watched. You were real about the transition in the beginning. Sometimes i feel like I’m gonna die switching to healthy food in the beginning. Like literally DIE 😂. But thanks so much for sharing. So proud of you. I hope I can do it too
"if you don't love yourself, then the journey is not over" yes. wow. very much yes.
I love myself but I don't want to struggle breathing and I want to live
i agree
Amen. True words. Also, "yes. wow. very much yes" reminds me of the doge meme, lol xD

There is literally NO secret! Changing your lifestyle takes sooo much commitment and determination!!!!
PREACH!! 👏🏽
Facts
🎯😩
Exactly!
It can be when we are alone.......
Me personally, I started losing the most weight after reading the book Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth, a few things you are mentioning in this video are also in the book
not being confident is probably the worst feeling ever. looking in the mirror, no matter what you wear nothing makes you look good😭
hitting that plateau IS THE WORST & sooo unmotivating😭🥺
Omg yes! I hated being in that mindset where no matter what I wore I didn’t feel even decently pretty because of how unhealthy I felt inside 😭 yes!! It’s so discouraging! 😩
- commitment and patience
- moderation with food(healthy relationship with food)
- weight yourself once a week but don’t get obsessed with it
- eat breakfast to not have a big lunch and dinner. It’s also quite important
- breakfast: full
- lunch: healthy food
- dinner: lightest meal of the day
- in the begging she did cardio and fat burn workout
- waterrrrrr
- cute workout clothes to motivate to workout
- supportive bra
- no equipment in the begging but she bought dumbbells, ankle weights, resistance bands and yoga mats
- music
honestly thank you smmm! a blessing

Thank you !

Was looking for this comment 🥳
I'm at 200, I run out of breath just talking or putting body lotion on. This video is so inspiring.
Girl you got this! 💪🏽 there’s no better dedication than doing it for yourself. It’s crazy how you can actually notice a difference in so many things you never realize you experienced before. I used to have trouble falling asleep because I could feel my weight on myself & as I slowly started losing weight I could literally feel myself becoming less heavy & sleeping came a little easier for me. I believe in you girl 🥰 do what feels right for you!
Omg same I’m at 237 last week and a half I started at 243 I’ve been working out everyday eating clean & less. But I still get fatigued getting dressed or like you mentioned putting lotion on. It’s like a workout in itself. Man gaining weight is so easy but loosing it is pure hell until you put that dress or jeans on and notice a little difference then that right there will be motivation!!! That sets me off to go hard because I’m actually seeing results.
Edit* down to 229! And I’m on a roll🧡
Omg yes! I always tell ppl that it's hard to touch my toes without becoming short of breath. I'm 220 and 5'5... but last year before social distancing, I was 165 😭
@@Kiara-ut2oo are you me? Same exact measurements. I actually got up to 249 but I started keto and workout in February. I lost 30 pounds that month and stopped, then I restarted this month and I’m down to 213 today!! I’m so happy.

“Prisoner in my own body”
Wow...that hit me hard
Just remember that ice doesn’t melt until the temperature hits 32 degrees F. Weight loss is like being an ice block at 25 degrees F. You may not see the visible work from 25-31 degrees, but that work is necessary to get you to 32 degrees when the changes really happen.
I love this!
I wish I could claim it! Atomic Habits by James Clear
It's also freezes at 32F so I'd say 33F 😂😂
that book is amazing !
That’s a really good visual
Yes! being addicted to junk food is a REAL thing. People always think its as simple as just not eating the junk food. Sugar is addicting, and junk is very addicting. It takes time, but it doable to cut it out :)
Super true. My vice is definitely sugar/junk food. Still working on it. It's not easy at all 😩😭😭😭😭😭
@@Ms.MD7 Girl me too!!
I'm still addicted to energy drinks and I get a weird feeling
Yeah kinda like drugs. You feel good when eating it because it taste good so it can be hard to quit
when she talked about eating a whole box of pizza, it really got me alert because I USED TO DO THAT AND NOT THINK ANYTHING OF IT! i’m 60 pounds down and i can’t eat more than like 3 slices. i would order like 20 wings and eat it by myself. this is such an unhealthy relationship with food
It’s possible guys, I weighed 210lbs in January of 2024, and now almost 5 months later I weigh 162lbs in June 2024 my goal is 150lbs before August!🎉 (48lbs lost)

@@janessalopezzz thanks! right now I’m not done with my journey but I can tell my I have lose skin when I sit, but it’s not that noticeable even when I sit. But remember to never be ashamed! That’s proof of your success in your journey, of course there are ways to remove it but never feel forced to. Hope that helps! 🩷
@@RosiesArt28omg thank you so much for replying, it means a lot! i was really nervous about that stuff so i'll try to find ways to prevent it as much as possible but you're absolutely right, it's just a reminder of how far we've come which is beautiful!
Hey Gurll! I am so proud of you🎉 you did what most of us are dreaming of Or trying so hard for 👏
Please share what was your diet and workout routine 🙏
" I didn't deserve to be a prisoner in my own body". This stuck with me. Thank you for being so honest and congratulations on your weight loss.
Congratulations on your weight loss journey! And I want to congratulate anyone who's starting because that alone is a lot.
One of the biggest advice I could give to someone who wants to lose weight is to be ambitious but not TOO overly ambitious when you first start. Be realistic with yourself. If you are rarely active, don't set yourself up to run 3 miles a day or go to the gym everyday to do hardcore workouts. You will just mentally and physically exhaust yourself and you'll hate all the pain you're feeling and that may even stop you from pursuing a healthy life style. Instead, take walks! Try to aim for 5,000 steps a day then increase to 10,000. Eventually you'll slowly build up your stamina and then you can start jogging/running when you feel ready. Don't cut out all sugary/junk food immediately too because your body (and mind) will experience shock. Instead, slowly ease out of it and decrease your size and intakes. PLEASE don't immediately jump to eating salads or all the healthy food we see everybody eat when they wanna lose weight. That's something you can also ease into later. Just count your calories instead! As someone who was overweight, struggled years of trying to lose weight, and was very physically inactive, this advice of being ambitious but realistic helped a lot!
PREACH!!! 👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽 easing into a weightloss journey is the best motto to go by! Quitting everything cold Turkey will only make you cave sooner & pushing yourself to do more than your body can handle will not go well either. You said it all so perfectly ❤️ thank you so much for sharing your advice with everyone 🙌🏽
I’m scared but I need to do it ty!!
A million percent agree. I lost so much and I’m close to my dream body but not there yet and not completely in love yet but loving the progress. Went from 250 to 180. Trying to lose 10 more lbs along with toning up
@@lisamarie9876 i’m proud of you! good job!
YES, CUT ALL SUGAR AND JUNK FOOD! DO IT GUYS!
ive seen so many videos on youtube about these skinny girls loosing pounds, but they looked like they were already skinny enough, not to be harmful at all, but it feels so good to see someone in my weight range do this, it really just makes me want to cry happy tears knowing that someone like me could do the same regardless of being extremely skinny or extremely fat and that it is in fact very possible.
Yes remember it’s you against that extra fat! Push you’re to push them out, don’t forget you’re beat full, we just have extra fat and for me it got the point where I was like 😟 stopppp you’re getting too much now. Running everyday for a little is something, even going on a walk. Make it fun and go with someone, the world is beautiful, I love walking and exploring now😭😊
the number on the scale is probably our worst enemy tbh. sometimes your clothes fits looser and the number doesn’t go down.😭 yes i agree weighing yourself once a week or twice a month is so much better than doing it every single day.
the number isn’t really important, get a scale that calculates body fat percentage and muscle mass! game changer for sure! remember that fat weighs more than muscle!!
@@miriam4355 do you have any suggestions
fr. i used to do it every day and yes i did lose 10 lbs but i never exercised again since that month, i just remember i was so depressed and obsessive about my weight that i stopped caring again for 2 years lol. tomorrow is another day
The scale number is not nearly as scary as the cholesterol number, the blood sugar number, the blood pressure number, and (in my case) the kidney number. I had high cholesterol, was pre-diabetic, and had an EGFR of 59.1. Now I have normal blood sugar, normal cholesterol and an EGFR of 84. I am sure most of you haven't even thought about your kidneys or possibly livers when it comes to weight. These things are likely not a concern must at all until you hit your 30s (maybe I'm wrong on that and it can hit earlier) but it happens from decades of bad life style choices. The scale is just the most easily tracked indication that your health is at risk. Amazon has glucometers for $25-30. If your blood sugar readings indicate prediabetes, you are already doing organ damage. Your doc might not even tell you until your diabetic. Over 80 percent of those with prediabetes don't even know they have it. Anyway, there are far worse number enemies out there I actually hate to say.
You are definitely right about that. My weight has been up and down with lbs
Amazing video,
I gained 50lbs over lockdown, started my journey 3 weeks ago and am down 3.8lbs :)
Hope to lose at least another 36.2lbs !
UPDATE: I AM DOWN 17lbs now :)
I started about 3-4 weeks ago and I lost 3.6 lbs but I feel like I’m not losing any more weight. What did you do differently?
@@jenthealien8888 That’s actually really good. If you’re a woman (I’m assuming you are) then we tend to retain a lot of fat, so 1 to 2 lbs every week is normal.

Dang great job!
Update
“I am not a dietitian”
As a dietitian, I appreciate the recognition. 💚 Congratulations on your journey. Thank you for being so transparent!
Im 5’5 and was 258lbs in April, today I am 232lbs. I love feeling healthier in general. I go rock climbing, jog/walk, weight lifting, and floor exercises. I also cut out all fast food/junk food and learned how to cook. Getting more protein in, drinking water, and taking vitamins:) super important. It’s just hard cuz I can’t see a difference in myself but I see myself everyday and I’ve lost some inches it’s just I can’t see it. So I’m very hard on myself.
Im on my weight loss journey as well..Word to the wise for every one pound you loose. YOU LOOSE 4 STICKS OF BUTTER 🧈. DONT BE HARD ON YOURSELF
💕💕
I felt this! I am also so hard on myself. I say i don’t “see it” but when I look at videos from a year ago, I don’t compare videos to what I look like now- but I see it. Just seeing how my face looks now versus last year. The problem is that we get in our heads a lot but best believe, if you’re putting in the work, deep down you see it. Sending lots of positive vibes! It’s not easy but so worth it! ♥️
Come back and reply!!! Where are you now?!!
Im 305 now , been struggling so hard with consistency!! Thanks for this !!
Your dependence on hot Cheetos was how dependent I was on processed sugar foods, candy, chocolate, energy drinks, and the same thing happened to me. The moment I gave those things up I started having outbursts and I kept crying and just even having negative thoughts as I walked into the gym. I never realized I used sugar as a coping mechanism to not feel certain things or think certain things.
This was a great video! Keep up the great work!
“I didn’t deserve to be a prisoner in my own body.”
I like that. Never thought of it that way.
an entire box of pizza, plus a big af bag of hot Cheetos, plus dessert. sounds like something i do. this is the reality of binge eaters. Thank you for sharing. I'm starting my weight loss journey so it's comforting to see and listen to someone who's been where I'm at.
My heaviest was 230 i lost 30lbs and ended up gaining back 5lbs and have hit a plateau for a while now. Its really discouraging. Congratulations on your weight loss
This is the part that is always challenging & discouraging 😭 but we gotta keep pushing through & remember that weight doesn’t always matter 🥺 because you might be losing inches instead of pounds & as long as you feel good & healthy that’s what matters 💖
"Nothing sustainable happens overnight" Wise words
❤️❤️❤️
i recently started my journey, i started at 213 and i’m down to 203 🤠 this week has been rough and i’ve been close to quitting, but this has just motivated me and made me feel like the feelings i’m going through are valid
Congrats!
Always valid 🥰 hoping you’re doing great! 💪🏽 thank you for watching! 💖
what did u do specifically? pls lmk!
What have you been eating or what work outs
Thank you for this video!! I started my weight loss journey at 214 lbs and currently at 202! My self confidence is the highest it’s ever been lately 🥰

Way to go!! Keep it up.
Girl when you said it's you showing up for youself everyday I FELT that. Because it is the truth, it is so difficult some days but honestly they way that you feel about yourself regardless of the physical changes you start to love yourself because of the hard things you force yourself to do. You find your strength, self-love and confidence within this journey 💖
I used this motivation. I watched this video when I first started my weight loss journey, I have officially went from 178 to 143 (both morning weigh ins) in a few months :) my results came kinda fast but I'm at a plateau. I'm gonna use this for motivation tysm
GURLLLLLLL YESSSS 👏🏽👏🏽🥳😍 YOU DID THAT!! 💖💖 I’m so happy for you & honored I could play a part in it 🥺 keep going🙌🏽 plateaus are always a struggle but you can get through it 😁 I’m currently trying jump rope as a workout 😉 thank you so much for taking the time to watch 🥰
@@CrystalValenzuela I'm definitely gonna keep pushing! I don't want to look back on this moment and regret not going forward. I've heard jump roping is great good luck with that!
@@claire7268 love to hear it 👏🏽 good luck to you as well 🥰
Howw
UA-cam is definitely telling me something with this recommendation because you had me in the first minute!! Everything you were saying is so accurate. I was the exact same before and during my weight loss journey. 40 lbs down and still going
CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🥳🥳 40lbs down is awesome!!! Nothing better than the feeling of seeing & feeling your hard work pay off 🙌🏽 so proud of you! 👏🏽👏🏽 thank you so much for watching! 🥺💖
How much time it took you to lose 40lbs?

I am both a trainer and life coach; your advice is both SOLID and refreshing...CONGRATS on your journey!🦋
The womanly body goes through SO MUCH! Always got to be kind to your body during the changes. Cause the changes are normal 💗
Preach! Our bodies are so powerful & we always forget how much they do for us 🙌🏽
So true !
I love your motto “show up for yourself” because at the end of the day all your hard work is to help yourself out. It also gives you a sense of accountability. Great job on your weight lose👏☺️
Yess! 🙌🏽 it took me a while to realize that but now when I’m doubting myself I remind myself that “I’m here for me” 💪🏽
Yes it’s about wanting to live and not die 😭 I was almost 200 pounds with my body hurting bones hurting always tired. I was killing myself with binge eating. Started hiking a lot and dropped so much weight I’m at 154 now and love hiking. I eat smaller meals drink so much water. Also starting to weight lift since you drop a lot of weight with weight lifting and toning your body. If I can do it so can you. Motivate yourself by wanting to live and not die. ❤️🙏🏼🏋🏻♀️
See, no one really gets it the way you do. You’re so genuine and honest and you say everything I feel. You’re such an inspiration thank you so much.
the thing that’s so confusing about weight loss is that sometimes you lose inches off your body but your weight stays the same! but please don’t be discouraged that’s why it’s good to always take measurements and pictures because it makes u feel better seeing progress!
This! 🙌🏽
Loved how you explained the healthy relationship with food 🙌🏻. You still ate the foods you loved- just in moderation. You explained such a realistic way to handle food. A lot of peoples will say oh you can’t eat that or can’t eat this 😒. And that’s where people find themselves going back to old eating habits because of the ‘pressure’.
Yess!! I think that’s what made it so hard for me when I was still learning. People were like you need to give everything up & eating just this😩
all in moderation yes !! being too strict with yourself can be so damaging to your mental health, having a healthy & balanced relationship with food is a constant journey but so worth it !
Exactly! Couldn’t have said it better myself 🙌🏽✨
I love how you did all your workouts from home and you didn’t mention getting a gym membership! I literally have 2 gym memberships and I don’t even go to one 😭😭 I need to start working out from home lol and by some equipment!
Yess!! I honestly tried gyms & they’re not for me. I just waste my money & never end up going either 🤣 you can buy equipment for yourself at home & save the money from the gyms 🙌🏽
I love Heavy ankle weights for donkey kicks and fire hydrants 👍👍 they have some that you can continue to add weight to, up to 10lbs an ankle 😎
Amazing job on your weight loss!!! I'm currently going through my journey, I'm 50 pounds down and I have another 50 to go but I'm definitely getting there. I find it's definitely helping me more that I'm posting my journey here on UA-cam and I have other people helping and motivating me to work harder and that I'm not alone in this.
i’m 5’5 1/2, 215 , 17 y/o . i’ve always been the biggest and it’s always been an insecurity because family never failed to point it out but coming to God made me want to bring my body into subjection and respect it 🦋! hopefully my mind changes and it becomes for the right reason💕!
Weight loss for me has been one of my biggest goals for as long as I can remember. I remember doing a lot of diets and working out and for some reason the moment someone mentioned I started looking thinner, I would fall out and gain the same or more weight,. I never knew why until I watched your video. My confidence in my teenage years was almost non-existent, no matter how many compliments I would get I would feel like the biggest thing ever. I have seen many videos about how people lost weight fast, what to eat, how to workout, etc. but felt like nothing worked. I took a long break on my weight loss journey and as I watched your video I realized it's really a mental thing, just as it is physical. This video made me realize so many things and reminded me that I am not alone. This is really helpful and helped me get my confidence up to go for it again. Thank you for sharing your story ❣
I have been on my weight loss journey for almost 4 years now, and I am stuck at this point. I watched this for motivation, and it reminded me of the times from the beginning of my journey when I was very motivated.
I am very happy to see that I have almost every piece of equipment on the list :))))
I peaked at 252 back in 2023. After 13 months of work, commitment, and a lot of changes, I’m down to 184-ish today. Everyone’s weight loss is different! Mine was spurred on by working hot days in the oilfield, huge deficits, and diet changes. To the person reading this, I absolutely believe in you. You’re stronger than you know! Keep fighting the good fight!
"You showing up for yourself" are the greatest words spoken. Thank you for the inspiration because I've been in this place over and over. What has helped me to strive and press forward is knowing that I love myself and my family and I don't want to be selfish because of my unhealthy relationship with food. So I'm still pressing forward a step every day towards a healthy lifestyle and not just looking good. I want to feel good inside and out. I want to be able to do things with my grandchildren. I'm 45 years young and I want to live a full life without pain, sickness and feeling fatigued and so tired. Thank you again for sharing your journey because it's not easy and we will fall down. But getting back up makes it all the sweeter. So now I pray over my health and life to change for the better so I can walk in my purpose. I can't do that being unhealthy and tired. May God bless your journey and keep you grounded. I'm showing up for myself so I can show up for my family and Kingdom work!
If anyone is looking for some extra motivation 🥺💖 I just started a new series on my channel called Motivational Mondays & I will be posting a new video every Monday related to working out & basically just inspiring each other to set our goals & go after them 🥳💪🏽 I post videos twice a week (Monday’s& Friday’s) 😁 check it out besties! 🥰
Love this. I also hate breakfast, I struggle with IBS. I do IF, I break my fast at 12 or 1. Fasting is good for your body, don't force yourself to eat if you don't have to. Dr Jason Fung has a channel on here and discusses fasting, maybe you can check him out.
Thank you. I finally got my diet together and eating healthy. I'm down 40lbs in 3 months. It's been very hard.
Omg I just started following Body Project videos about two weeks ago & I love it!!! I’m 5”0 & was at my heaviest, 186 in May. Idk how much I weighed a few weeks ago but I am at about 180 (181-182 thanks to my period). I definitely love myself so I know I deserve a better healthier lifestyle. Thank you for sharing your journey, this motivates me even more 💕
I'm currently at 212 lb the heaviest I've been. I have always had a bad body image even when I was 123 lb. But recently I've been feeling the effects of my weight in my knees, and noticed I stopped taking pictures of myself. I really want to start being healthier and more confident.
CONTINUE TO SHOW UP FOR YOUSELF!!!!!💯💯💯💯
Omg I loved your video. I usually get so bored but your voice was really soothing. It really helps rn I’m at 220 lbs I’m 5’3 and this is my heaviest. I been dealing with health problems a lot depression and anxiety. Thank you for sharing your journey. This is going to be my year!!!!! 2022
OK first off huge congratulations, that is such a big milestone to reach! I am so proud of you! I love that you shared everything that you’ve done from your personal experience! I have honestly made the mistake of weighing myself every single day whenever trying to lose weight, and they can be discouraging so my mom always told me to just weigh once a week as well!
Congrats I’m on the journey now. Starting at 225: almost a year later I’m at 190. Goal is 145.

Commitment and patience.... Commitment and patience..... I'm realizing now that this has been what I'm missing... thank you for this video.
It’s so great to see a young Hispanic woman taking care of herself! I am so proud of you!
Oh my word...I have never seen a weight loss video that actually is EXACTLY the same as my life!!!
I am just now starting back but I have been raking with my eating and weight gain FOR YEARS.
I have food addictions bad...and I would work out hard then sneak food immune room.
Wow!
Thank you so much doe this!
I'm scared to try again but I HAVE to do this if I want to live!
💖
I'm obsessed with the background music for this video. You are an inspiration Crystal! Your channel is so refreshing
I had no idea you struggled with loosing weight, this is very inspirational to everyone starting their weigh loss journey and the fact that you look and are doing much better is such a motivation!! 👏🏽
*Your weight loss journey is a testament to dedication and hard work. Thanks for sharing your story and motivating us to achieve our own health goals!*
I give you a lot of credit Crystal for saying what you would eat before you lost weight. I've watched a ton of UA-camrs weight lost journeys and not many do that. Congrats!
I been keto/carnivore for 3 months now, I am 6'0 and i was 310lbs now I'm 284lbs. I just start 2 meals a day 1 week ago and some days 1 meal a day. I used to live off of pizza, fast food, stk n chz, ice cream sundeas, and king size candy bars everyday.
Girl, you are so articulate. I normally dislike watching videos of people talking because it just sounds like they are rambling but I really enjoyed your video! 😊
I relate to this so much and what you said is all so true. I literally teared up at the old clip of you saying we’re going to do this we’re going to make it this is our year. So proud of you for showing up for yourself it’s so beautiful to see.
I’m on a weight loss journey right now and of course I needed to watch this after finding your channel. I have also tried so many times to lose weight, this was so relatable to me ! Love that you shared this, I need to be more consistent and stick with it for sure. Your transformation is awesome, very motivating.
So sorry it took me so long to respond but thank you so much for your sweet message!! 🥺💖 consistency is definitely the key & I know you can do it! The hardest part is always starting but once you get going you feel so good about it🙌🏽👏🏽
@@CrystalValenzuela - thank you so much !
“There’s no secret”
This is so true! My mum lost weight and people always asked her how. She wasn’t even trying to but she had a change in food! Well said
I haven’t even made it in five minutes yet but I love it already because it’s SO RELATABLE
Thank you! I needed this! I weighed 187 after pregnancy, and just last week I started keto, and I bought an exercise bike. I lost 13lbs in 8 days. I feel a lot better so far, but my goal weight is 140-150. I just need to get rid of my chest.
yesss having a small dinner or even no dinner at all is such a game changer & gives your body enough time to digest your food properly, although we be going to sleep hungry .. 🤣
Hahah yes! 🤣 eventually you get used to eating a little bit but damn at first you want to cry 🥲
Omg
Thank you for being so vulnerable because all of us as humans, go through similar body struggles and learning how to just be confident and love our bodies that we've had been blessed with! Din things for the sake of overall health is always a better way to approach it rather than just losing and managing your intake to fit a certain "ideal' body type that we were taught was the most beautiful. Home workouts have become my fav during the second half of quarantine and now I do them to be strong!! Proud of you girl💛 You're going to inspire so many!!!
I absolutely agree! Could not have said that better myself 🙌🏽🙌🏽 thank you so much!! 🥰
Wow you explained everything so throughly and detailed, we are literally going through the same journey! Congratulations girl, I loved your story, you look so amazing!!!
One of the best and honest weight loss videos. First video I’ve ever seen of yours. SUBSCRIBED!
Thank you so much!! That means so much to me 🥺❤️ had to be honest because that’s what I needed to hear to go through my weightloss journey
“Keep showing up for yourself “ THIS IS WHAT IM GOING TO KEEP SAYING TO MYSELF !!! Thanks! ❤️❤️❤️ congrats on your journey!!!
Thank you for telling how patience was so important to your weight loss. I feel like patience for myself making changes and patience for the timeline is what I need to make it work.
Thank you for sharing your story! It was so motivational and I’ll be implementing some of what you said in my personal weight loss journey. My goal is to be 138 Lbs on the dot and to see you reach that is so motivational. It’s such a random number but I’ve been fixated on that number because for someone who’s 5 feet 4 I feel like it’s a realistic goal. I feel like the the BMI chart is so unrealistic and unhealthy so I’m going based off of a weight I was most happy at which was 138. I’m currently 184 Lbs. I started my weight loss journey 10 days ago at 189 Lbs. Thanks again !
YESSSS I LOVE THAT!! Do what feels right for your body 🙌🏽🥺 the number on the scale is just a number it’s about how you feel physically & mentally. You can so do it! I believe in you! Whenever you have moments of doubt just remember how good you felt to see yourself make the progress you’ve already made 💪🏽✨
@@CrystalValenzuela thank you for your words of encouragement! I am weighing 175 Lbs. A month later. Consistency is key!
thank you for this video ❤️ yesterday at 3 am I was so motivated to start eating healthier and exercising (as one does) but when I woke up today I had pastries for breakfast and I felt bad, like I couldn't stick to my goals and I was weak. hearing you say you were addicted to some foods and you couldn't just cut them out made me feel understood and I realize I'll have to allow myself some of my favorite fast foods because I'm used to eating them all the time now and it's a complex and delicate journey. I hope I can change and be more comfortable in my own skin, you definitely inspired me ❣️
This is some solid advice 🥺 I’ve been working out on and off for a year now. I was just working out and not changing my diet.... biggest waste of time lol. You literally cannot out train a bad diet! I’m starting to focus more on my eating habits now & I’ve noticed such a change!
Growing up in a Mexican household I was always told to finish everything on my plate. I would get in trouble if I didn’t.. so I’ve always had that mindset. Now I’m starting to understand that our bodies let us know when we are full and we should respect that. Respect ourselves enough to listen to our own bodies. I’ve been eating in moderation I think the final straw for me was one night I finished an entire plate of carne asada fries by myself ☹️ . I was drunk and I’m not gonna lie it did hit the spot LOL, butttt I just remember feeling disgusted w myself the next day. Before I would only have a couple bites and I would feel full. Now I’m cutting everything I used to be able to eat in half and honestly it’s working! I’m starting to feel satisfied & I don’t get as hungry as I used to. Drinking a lot of water has also been helping me.
Thank you for your advice! Good luck to all of you watching & reading the comments 🤩 WE GOT THISSS!!
My breaking point was when I could barely get down to tie my shoes and was out of breath. I’m at 218lbs right now, my goal weight is 135. Which is how much I weighed before gaining relationship weight and gained weight in 2 pregnancies within 4 years
I was 240 and went down to 217 in 12 days. I am on a liquid fast and I'm drinking nutritional supplement shakes four times a day with plenty of water.
Well doneee!!
Hi, well done👏🏿. Did you eat any meals or just drank liquid for those 12 days?
@@raf337 I had just drunk liquids; the nutritional shakes.
@@kristinapepa8183 thank you
what shakes did you use? :)
Girl- Before you even said it ... I said in my mind SHE FIT. I saw the same ad and purchased and that bra is a game changer. I love the full adjustable set up with all the bands as I am losing weight.
That bra is EVERYTHING!! 🥺🙌🏽 really be coming thru on the fitness journeys. It’s the one ad I don’t mind that I got 🤣🤣 lol thank you so much for watching! 🥰
thank you so much for your video. I am 240 pounds, i gained 45 pounds in the last year. Today is the 4th day on my weight loss journey. I am fasting 20 hours a day and eating a large healthy meal after the 20 hours then i’m back to fasting. I drink a LOT of water and i started going to the gym 4 days ago as well. Exercising and dieting & hoping to see some progress within the next couple months!! CONSISTENCY is what i keep telling myself. I’ve never “completed” anything in my life. I always give up but i’m determined. i’m tired of being fat & not confident. These types of videos keep me motivated so i thank you ❤ i’m proud of you!! it’s not easy!
meee saying the diet starts tomorrow & i would start off strong monday and tuesday & by wednesday i was eating chick fil a 😖😣
I love chick-fil-a! A low-calorie meal that I love there is the grilled chicken sandwich and instead of fries get an 8 count grilled chicken nuggets. It's lower in calories and a good amount of protein!
Finally someone who has the same body type and even looks like me! I need to lose at least 80 - 60 lbs! My health is at an all time low. Thank you for your story and for the inspiration
I’m so glad I came across this video! I’ve been searching and searching for a quick fix but you’re so right. Today is the day. I’m done feeling the way I’ve been feeling. ❤️❤️❤️
One of the best weight loss journey videos I've seen, thank you! Subscribed
Okay but that sports bra is on a whole other level!!
It’s a whole transformer 🤣🤣
No lie, best sports bra hands down!!!
Right!!! 🥲🙌🏽
I’m at 200 and I thought I was the only one my age who struggled with this, this video is so helpful. Thank you so much!!
I love how you explained the healthy relationship with food, I think you put it the best way possible, and definitely yes everything in moderation. Cute gym clothes is a very good motivator indeed! 🥰😄 You've come such a long way, I'm so happy to see you happier and healthier! 💕
I want to congratulate you on your weight loss journey. STARTING is hard enough, but to put it on youtube for the WORLD to see? INSPIRING. I'm also documenting my journey on my channel & seeing this is MOTIVATING.
I think knowing the statistics on calroies in food and how much you need to burn a day to lose weight is what helped me. Being in the dark and just trying to do what people say is good for me never helped me. My fitness pal and Fitbit have definitely helped me in so many ways in learning what to eat, what not to eat, how much I need to exercise a day, etc. Another thing I don’t think people ever think about is drinking water. Drink half of your body weight in ounces everyday and you’ll already start to lose weight from that alone. I’m down 14 pounds from my original weight currently so I’m still in the beginning of my journey but so far just understanding the numbers had helped me understand what I need to do and motivated me.
I am 19 and got pregnant and had an abortion in December, it emotionally wrecked me and I gained 20 pounds hitting 240 now I’m 230 but I am trying to finally get to a better place physically and mentally, I loved your video thank you sm for sharing your story and motivating me
❤
I have to say that you need to give yourself some grace. Focus on the positive things that you are able to do, ie...continuing your education or getting a decent job and starting an emergency fund so that you are in a better place financially 1 year or 3 years from now. Love yourself, be good to yourself and know that you are enough! ❤💃 You got this!
Girl yes! You are goals! All your self love was your motivation. I’m trying to cut off junk food in moderation like you said. It’s the working out part I keep getting lazy about. I need that healthy diet you have. You speak nothing but the truth. Thank you for this video ❤️
Congratulations! You are inspiring, I can totally relate to being scared for my health and I am at that point where I need to make changes.

thank you for this video and for promoting having a healthy relationship with food. When I was deep in my eating disorder and food addiction I didn't think this was possible and the advice I got was to cut out any foods that I binged on. But all that did was keep me in fear and restriction. What I know now that I have gotten free from the eating disorder and food addiction is that it was never about the food, it was always about getting free from what was driving me to food in the first place and reconnecting with myself, my body and my own inner guidance. thanks for an inspiring video.
You nailed it about loving yourself, focus on being healthy and forget about glorified ads for junk food. Keep up the great work!
Crystal - What a great message you share in this video. In a world where we all want instant gratification - you shared the truth about the fact that it isn't a miracle but a Journey! I know we all want a quick fix when we see someone who has lost the weight & gotten in shape - but you are clear proof that by embracing the journey the best you can & taking your time you Will get results and lasting results at that! Thank you for sharing your journey and all of your realistic, healthy advice - I really appreciate it!
i lost 20 lbs in one month , and i’m at a plateau 😭 i was getting discouraged until i seen this video, i want to say thank you i started crying from your encouragement , i also have a unhealthy relationship with food , i’m a very picky eater so i can relate lol i hope i start to see progress as i continue. i’m not giving up , i’m like you this time i mean business 😂❤ again thanks . i’m gonna continue to always show up for myself and do like you say from now on 💗
That's great. I just started my weight loss journey a month ago. Trying to stay accountable
I'm starting my loss weight journey ✨ this is my 4th day so far... I feel pretty good and your video helped me to understand that I don't need to deprived myself and have a negative relationship with food. Thank you ❤️
This made me cry so much 😭but I’m also so proud of you crystal ❤️
Thank you Lucia 🥰❤️
I’ve always had troubles with my weight, always saying “when I reach this high I’m going to work out” I never did 😭. I hit 225 and was miserable, I would cry about how big I was. I’m 5’8 so I don’t really appear big but in my teens I want to take care of myself, making sure I will continue further when in adulthood. Thank you to everybody in the comments and this video, the tips and advice were very motivating. This helped me realize what I was doing wrong. I lost 2.1 pounds so far from JustFit. I’m starting to try doing 5,000 steps a day and weight lifting if I can. I would always eat cookies nonstop and use the excuse “I just worked out it’s fineeee,” so thanks for the beautiful women giving do’s and don’ts. I’m not a breakfast person either too! I only ate it when I would cook it for my baba too. Making these changes and routines will be hard, but I’m done with hating myself and being miserable. It may take a long time, but the outcome is what drives you to success! I hope everyone has a fantastic day! ❤❤😊
This is amazing! I was 262 currently 200. Love these videos!
This video made me cry (in a good way) the realest video I’ve watched. You were real about the transition in the beginning. Sometimes i feel like I’m gonna die switching to healthy food in the beginning. Like literally DIE 😂. But thanks so much for sharing. So proud of you. I hope I can do it too
I just absolutely love your approach to the topic…wow!!
