1. Change your diet
2. Calorie counting
3. Walking 10,000 steps 6 days a week, rest day 7
4. Cutting out all drinks except water
5. Be consistent
Well done on such a great job! I struggle with the portion control most of all and am really trying to work on that. Hopefully this 2022 I will finally reach my fitness goals!!!
Thank you so much for listing the steps👏🏽 All the best on your journey, I know you’re going to smash it!💗
@@Leilatorah Thank you!!! Keep up the great work!💪🏾
Only water?? What do you think about diet sugar or 0 calories there’s something in soda 🥤 I think I tried the artificial sugar and all season I felt nothing lost nothing I’d love to lose 40 but I’m 265 so 40 pounds is not going to show much but I will feel it in my clothes for sure
@@Arizona_lilly That's because those claims are misleading. I tried to do the same thing and didn't lose any weight so I cut out all drinks except water, black coffee and plain tea. If I get bored of water I add a bit lemon or lime to it.
Eat sweet potatoes as your source of carbs. It definitely satisfies hunger
Walking is the truth! I put my earbuds in and walk 3 miles to a favorite spot and back home 4-5 days a week. A total of 6 miles and 15,500 steps. I always feel like doing more when it’s over because it’s refreshing. I drink just water and drink green smoothies for breakfast and lunch. For dinner I have 2 pieces of tilapia with just salt, pepper, butter, and a squeeze of lemon. I have as many veggies as I want, with the same seasoning. 36 lbs down in 3 weeks.
Can you tell me what type of green smoothies or what’s in it? Thank you!
What do you put in your green smoothies! Congrats on the weight loss and lifestyle changes btw 💕
Congratulations!!! But please choose a better fish....
What's in the green smoothie?
36lbs in 3 weeks? No way!
I've lost weight just walking for 30 minutes to an 1 hour with headphones 4-5 days out of the week and avoiding sugary drinks, eating wholesome meals, and taking everything with moderation, adding green tea or matcha to my diet and better rest.
I can attest to this easy method.
Awesome job! I’ve lost weight before doing this method. Definitely incorporating it back to lose this pandemic 20 pounds.
Good job 💪🏾.. What kind of green tea u drink?
What kind of wholesome foods did you eat
Matcha what is that
I did all 5 of things you listed and have lost almost 50 pounds since July 2021. Great video!
Not in 2 months?
@@afolks3306 I’m much older than her. So it’s good for my age. Over 40
Thank you Katrina!💗 & congratulations you should be so proud of yourself, that is amazing xx
@@Leilatorah Ah thank you Leila! ❤️ I appreciate the kind words. You are inspirational!
You go girl 💪🏾
My BIGGEST CHALLENGE is CONSISTENCY!!!!!! Lord knows how many times I have started a weight loss journey to the point where I hired a nutritionist to help with my meals. I was apart of the gym and the whole shebang. But somehow I came across this video and I suddenly feel motivated again. I'm going to try and make a conscious effort to restart my journey!
You are me but I'm not letting that discourage me. I'm positive about trying again

Yes I was just explaining to my mom how difficult it is for me to stay consistent. Once I lose the weight I get SO RELAXED. Or during the process I’ll get frustrated.
My hardest thing is being consistent as well. I start to get quickly discouraged and stop every time
I hope you found someway to get consistent.
Reading all of the weight loss success in the comments makes me so happy 😭 I love y’all, keep up the good work.
You're so sweet
Ive literally been doing everything youve talked about since the beginning of 2023 and i have lost 20lbs. Ive been taking it slow so i know that the weight will stay off, i can build muscle appropriately, and so my skin can readjust. Im 5'9 and I was 211 now im 191 goal is 170 by end of year. Anyone reading this you can do it. Take it at your own pace and never give up.
5’7ft 180lbs here. Weight goal 140lbs. 3rd day intermittent fasting. Cleaning up my diet. Gonna get a mini stepper for cardio. Are you sure I can do it Sis?🥺😔
Same here! I’m 5’9 . Was 213 now 193. Gw 165. I’m walking and now I’m incorporating weight training
@@BBFLYRISEN does mini stepper work??
@@XotamaroX Girl I never ordered it. 😩🤦🏿♀️
@@BBFLYRISENit works sis! I love mine, my legs feel toned from it too. To start my legs would ache so quick
Currently I am 178lbs 5’2. I used MyFitnessPal for a good month. Changed my diet and got down to 160. My goal is 145 - 150. It’s so hard to be consistent with eating right. But this video made me realize I’m not alone and to not give up. Thank You 💙
Hey, Troiana, try Weight Watchers... I've done it before, about 12 years ago after my son was born, and it got me way past my weight goal. I'm now doing it again, and I don't know why I just didn't go back to WW in the first place. I have tried LOTS of other ones, Paleo, Keto, calorie counting, macros, holy moly.... nothing is like Weight Watchers, and it's so much more healthy with unlimited fruits & veggies. Good luck, Honey!!!
Keep going. I lost 25 pounds and hit a Plato so now I'm using my fitness pal as well. Been a week and I think it's helping break the Plato! Check out my journey on my channel. Wishing you success on your journey and hope you meet your goals soon! 😊
@@foxytk30 thank you I will look into that. I keep seeing the commercials for WW too
@@Trois94 WW is a cult.. wouldn’t recommend because everyone gains it back after they leave
@@NoorLovezYouh ohhhh thank you for the heads up 😂
I've also lost 40 lbs in two months doing all of these!!!! You go girl!!! 🙌🏽❤️
How many calories a day did u eat?
Great job!!! I want to lose weight faster. I am going to start too.
@@etherealessence159 Thank you!!! 🤗🤗
I’m 5’4 and hit 188 on May 31st
June 1st I got serious about my weight loss journey
And started eating healthier and cut all juices and only drank water and now I’m at 182. My goal is 145 so glad I came across this video just proves I’m on the right track !
same here my goal is 155 though !
Hope you keep updating.
I have been a bit stuck. Do fine for a few days then lapse. Just want to lose ten pounds.
Let us here know how you get on 😊🚶♀️🚶♀️
@@havana2banana Thank you I will, 10 pounds its definitely doable, you got this girl. The workout part is easy for me, its the eating I I have to get down specifically lunch lol.. I notice change in my body but the weight is staying at 182-184. let you know when I'm out the 80s xo
@@livelifebehappy369 nice, I will.
Girl let’s do this together!! I’m at 196 I’m trying to get to 160 by November 😩
Consistency is 🔑 I struggle with that 🤦🏽♀️ but I’m not giving up💪🏾 thanks for the video & tips
It really is key🙌🏽 keep going, you’ve got this girl!💗
Same

I hope you’re still working💪🏾
Been doing exactly this with 30 minutes doing weights a day I’m 5’4 and was 190lbs on 11 June 23 and now I’m 176 two weeks later, hopefully I can come back to this comment in a few months and see a bigger difference ☺️ all the hard work is worth it
That’s amazing girl! I’m gonna try I just realized my weight yesterday , smh.
That’s awesome! I hope it’s going. Well for you!
@@hannahr5212 thank you so much! I’m down to 161 so just over 2 stone lost in 6 weeks!!
Keep going! xxx
@miahyatt8764 omg! I'm the same height and weight as you! I am hoping to lose 50lbs. I'm on day 5 and only 2lbs down
I just want to come back to this comment in December to say that I've lost 20-25 pounds. I'm 5'4 and currently weighing 170 pounds. 🤞Thank you so much for the inspo!
Sameee
Did you lose it??
How's it going?? I just started my journey at 170 as well. Goal is 145💪
I'm 5'4 at 170 also and I want to get down to 125! I hope I can keep myself accountable to this lifestyle cause it's all a mind thing.💪🏿
@@pinkypie1439 you got this! I am already down to 162 from 170, in 5 days!
Drinking water is so key. Sometimes when you feel hungry it's because you're actually dehydrated. Hydrating with water is vital to keep your organs functioning and your skin looking good. I try to eat a lower carb diet because 1 in 3 people in my country will become diabetic and drinking a sufficient amount of water also helps stave off diabetes. I still drink iced tea, but if I sweeten it, I use monk fruit.
All the best to everyone!
I thought you were an established channel already. Everything looks clean and appealing! Hope to see more of you!
You’re gorgeous girl! Well done with the results you are amazing! I’m currently on my journey, and thank you for the tips!
Leila congrats ... You look amazing..... I did share my own story on how Ive lost 81 pounds and I give out tips. I have more energy now and I love my life. I also did a motivation vid showing my results. Never give up people 🙂
Gorgeous.. best tip is to always prep!! I’ve prepped since I was 27 and I am now 35. It is my weekly routine. ♥️
Love how I've come across this video right when I'm struggling with motivation to go to the gym this morning. Love love LOVE this content, will definitely be back for future videos.
I'm so glad to hear this!🙌🏽 Thank you so much for watching, and wishing you a successful journey!💗
You are Lovely! I'm also 5'3 and weigh 178 right now. Have lost almost 60lbs since Oct 26, of 2021... doing basically what you have said. I will be increasing my walking now. Can't wait to see how it goes! Thank you for sharing!
Congratulations Tiffany! That is amazing👏🏽
I am basically the same. If these things worked for you, then I will be motivated to get to work.
Hello ! Did your body tune from the walking?
@@jacklyngregg7856 yes, it's been really good with a few workouts too. I did add some weighted bands to give some extra toning. Best wishes!!
I lost 17lbs in 6 weeks most from mid section....I work out 3-4 times a week HIIT/ LIIT...im 5'2 164lb now 147lb.
Love this video. Very to the point and you are so right. Congrats on your weight loss. You look absolutely amazing
Thank you for this video! Quick, to the point and all the tips were reasonable. This was the motivation I needed.
This is super encouraging. I’m 5’3 - 168! Got a personal trainer but more importantly watching the food I eat. Started tracking my calories today!
i started yesterday! I'm around the same height and weight. i would love to have someone to be accountable to, do you want to do that with me?
5’3 and 175 here! We can do it! 💖
This is so encouraging, I’m literally at the 2 week mark where my weight is exactly the same. Thanks for sharing this because now I’m empowered to not give up and get to my goal.
I am so glad to hear this! Keeping going! Thank you for watching💗
Same !! I lost 1 lb in two weeks but stay consistent! It’s normal not to see results for even up to 4 weeks but keep at it we’re going to see progress , consistency is the best way to get long term results 💗
@@Lifewithnani1217 thank you 🙏
@@Lifewithnani1217 cut out carbs and sugar only grill or bake chicken or fish or shrimp. Only 1 slice a bread once a week. Only 2 hardboiled eggs and 1 orange for breakfast every morning for 4 weeks. Some lunch days do Only veggies so sometimes fish, tuna, chicken but not fried.
@@shereetaylor232 This is not healthy, please lets not encourage this. weight loss should be a lifestyle and not a diet
This video was so inspirational. It couldn’t have been easy. I am currently on my weight loss journey and I have stayed consistent with working out 4 days a week but I realised I wasn’t losing enough because of my diet didn’t change. I have now changed my diet using my fitness pal and Ramadan will also help with shrinking my stomach. Booking classes at the gym helps to stay consistent and accountable!
This popped up on my feed today and it just be fate. I’m using Noom to improve my health and lose weight. You could have stepped out if their program! Everything you said is spot on. I have been active for almost 20 years, running, strength training, running marathons even and yet my weight creeped up. I’m 60 so things change but I finally had an honest talk and knew my diet, what I was eating was the main factor. If I could get up early and run, go to the gym, run with stress fractures, torn hamstrings, dead tired there was absolutely no reason I could not tackle AND change what I consumed. Noom is my road map to a healthier me and as an aside, the pounds will disappear! Thank you for the confirmation young lady and good for you!
I’m so relieved I found your video! I’m finally doing all the right things after many wrong attempts where I would cut my calories too low or workout too hard and then not be able to keep it up. I’ve only just started my 3rd week and have been the exact same weight since the end of week 1 so feeling super demotivated but after hearing you have had a similar experience at the beginning of your journey has granted me some peace of mind. Hope it will start going down after my cycle (I’m assuming water retention has something to do with it). Doing an average of 6,000 steps a day with 2-3 days aiming for 10,000 and slowly working up and doing low intensity strength training for 2-3 days a week also. I will stay consistent this time. Im around 5’7 and my highest weight was 3yrs ago at 88kg (194lbs). I’m now 72kg (158lbs) and my goal is around 60kg (132lbs) but maybe I’ll be happy somewhere in the middle. (Finding Coach Viva here on UA-cam very insightful atm)
I love your tips!!!! As soon as you said calorie counting I was like YES!! Calorie counting has made such a difference in my life!!! I also stopped drinking sodas and felt a difference immediately!!! I do use crystal lights when I was something different then water but, I love my water
Hi Leila, I don’t usually comment to on UA-cam videos but i had to comment on this one! I was scrolling trying to get some tips and motivation for weight loss. The crazy thing is I am currently 5’3 183lbs same as you were when you started your journey. Thank so much for motivating to get this weight off!
God bless you hun!
I’m on my second week of changing my diet and meal planning. Have about 50 pounds to lose. Thanks for this video…very motivating and encouraging!
I’m on my 2nd week as well! We got this ..Good luck to you
How's it going ladies, I'm in day 10 on my weight loss journey. I'm praying for consistency
hows it going
Consistency is definitely the key!! Congratulations on your journey.
I switched to water a few months ago and I lost 15lbs just in water weight. Now I'm exercising 3x a week and walking in the mornings. I'm so excited for this journey! My husband has already lost 40lbs and I have to catch up lol. Thank you for the video and good job!
Wow totally felt like you were telling my story. I’m a twin and I have always struggled with my weight. My twin sister was always effortlessly petite. I made all these changes 2 weeks prior to coming across your video. Great information thank you!
After doing a 48 hour water fast/ spiritual fast. I learned that feeling of hunger vs the feeling of dehydration. It is honestly similar and it is mostly about knowing your body.
So as of today September 17 2022 i am 5”10 and 283 lbs
I will check back in, in about 5 months my goal is to lose 60 lbs
Thanks for the motivation!❤️
Good luck!
starting with you
You can do it 💪🏾
I’m joining you. 5”5 203lbs😢
Congratulations on your goals, you will lose more than 60. One day at a time..
Leila,
Thanks for sharing!
I too found myself with my weight loss journey being a positive out of Covid for me. I tweaked my diet a little. I've always eaten pretty healthy. With all the gyms closed and not being able to run for many many years, I decided to start walking on the new path developed outside of my townhome. It was a 10 mile path and I walked 4 miles, 2 each way and had under a 15 minute mile. The path was beautiful and I enjoyed it every day. I sometimes walks two and three times a day. I was energized after each walk. I lost 30 pounds over five months. I had gotten up to 163 pounds the heaviest I have ever been I am 5 foot three and it made a difference. I then gained it all back by 2022 and I could feel it and I'm back on my journey maybe not to lose 30 pounds but to lose another 15 walking is amazing portion control is the best thing you can do cutting out the junk food for me. The candy and large portions was the best I could do. If you're on it keep at it and if you're thinking about it jump on, the journey can be the best thing you do for yourself!
It’s so true about thinking you’re hungry but actually being thirsty. Congratulations, thanks for sharing!
Yes it really is a thing! Thank you for watching Bonnie💗
Its actually very weird that people thought it was perfectly fine to say you are the bigger twin or even comment on your body. But well done on your journey 💕
Thank you so much for this video. Very helpful and encouraging. I will start March 1st and share results in May. I wish everyone much success on your weight loss journey. Take care.
I started working as a mail carrier in the city and I haven’t checked my steps but I’m walking 8-10 hours… yes hours a day.., the last 10 pounds I was struggling to lose have just fell off me! I eat light all day due to being out in the sun.. I eat salads.. fruit.. soup for dinner and have at least a gallon of water a day.. with one drink of juice or soda to kill my cravings ! I’m so tiny! It feels so good! Oh and I drink protein shakes and smoothies!
Thank you! Really enjoyed your video. Just starting my journey Sunday. More fruit, more veggies, exercise, and water. Was 176, 172. Good luck to all of us trying to do/be better❤️
Your video and testimony is me currently. I weigh everyday and normally it would frustrate me. Thanks for the confirmation to keep going. I’m on my second week of doing all of your tips!
One of the most practical and inspirational videos on weight loss...very simple and your ideas resonate with me ( as someone on the journey )so much I had to like and subscribe.
Wonderful job!!!! Great job on learning and applying consistency! That’s key!
Great advice! Thanks for sharing your journey! Am I the only one that loved listening to her melodic accent? I am so motivated to try this and give myself a great birthday present this June: a healthier body! I will be sure to let you know how it works out! I got this! Great job, Leila! You are a beautiful young lady! Happy Women's Day to you all the beautiful women of the world!
These were really great tips. I’ve run into a lot of UA-camrs at this point who have lost a lot of weight from walking. Love it.
Thank you so much, I am so happy you found it helpful!💗
I’ve been hitting the gym machines hard for two months with clean eating and have lost weight but not close to this much! I started walking today 🙌🏽
@@EmpatheticEmpress keep doing what you’re already doing!👏🏽 Be consistent and before you know if you will reach your goal!💗
@@Leilatorah ok so today I start to walk instead of everything else I have been doing! I will try my best! I will be following your tips 🙏🏼
@@yasmincovarrubias3164 yesss go for it! I hope it’s going well & would love to hear about your results!💗
This was awesome! You did great! Thank you for sharing and making the video simple and straight to the point. So happy for you love!
I’m doing the exact same thing right now. So seeing this confirmed I’m doing right❤️however I only started 7 days ago, so I’m currently at 7,000 steps a day to ease into it. I am eating 1400 calories which for somebody 5’3 and my weight looking to lose weight is healthy. However do your research and listen to your body. I used to start too small and now I know my comfortable zone. I also do a 20-40 minute strength workout at home or the gym 4-5 days a week. I’d be happy to update anyone with my progress!
I’m female, 5’3, 19 years old and I currently weight 166.6lbs 7 days in. I’m not certain of my exact starting weight but I know it was somewhere around 168-170.
Heyy would love to know if you had any progress since you started as im also at a similar weight and age
Walking daily and hitting 10k and over works. Also, having a caloric deficit while counting calories. Drinking at least 70oz to a gallon of water daily and intermittent fasting helps as well.
I'm 5'3 and im ashamed to say I am 228lbs. I dont want to do the surgery but im watching this video to help push me into my weight loss journey. I have a juicer, and have recently adapted to a vegan diet, but my portion control needs help. Will be following this because i know walking really helps. So happy for all the weight loss comments. Wish me luck!
I am just over 100kg (appr. 220+ pounds) and I am seeing a nutritionist. She adviced against juice diet. She says the fruits will "create" a higher sugar content as compared to when you eat them.
@@chidodube8850 thank you for the advice! So should I only juice veggies?
I was 5’2 m, 225 due to birth control, fibroids, and a bad back. I just started walking more and changed up my diet to ADF with keto, and more water. I dont know how muxh I have lost in weight, but my clothes are looser, and i’m more agile! I’ll get on a scale in about 3 more weeks.
@@ShaynieB way to go! Keep it up I'm rooting for you! I've been working out since May 9th and prior to that I could barely do stairs now I'm getting better at it. I really appreciate the reply it helps motivate me even more!
Im doing the same thing as you. In the same boat. Good luck. You got this!
Excellent video, and congrats on the weight loss! I can't say enough about meal planning and knowing what you will eat. In addition to meeting a calorie goal each day, I meet a protein goal. It's hard to do both without being aware of what's in your food. Having a few go-to meals is really helpful, and also knowing what you will eat that day, so you are not surprised that you went over your calories at the end of the day. Also, it's important to not get frustrated and give up, because early on there is a lot of trial and error. Some foods are much more filling than others. And if you mess up, forgive yourself and move on. Consistency is not the same as perfection!
Thank you so much 🙏🏽 I know this works. I have a similar story to you with being body conscious at a young age. I almost started crying when you spoke of meal prep because I know my recent failures came from lack of meal prep, This past week I actually got it right, mostly, so step 5 -consistency is key. I’m excited to be getting back on track with my journey and focusing on me. Taking care of our body/mind/soul is a part of self love & care. 💗🤍 Good luck, light and love on your journey to everyone who reads this.
Thanks for sharing! I titled this year the year of consistency for me.
I reversed all of my progress (funny enough) after the original lockdown; mainly because I started to drink fruitscato…A LOT🤦🏾♀️
These steps really do work! Because it’s how I lost all of my weight originally. I haven’t seen much progress as of late, since I’ve started back up. I even stepped on the scale this morning and wasn’t too happy, but I’m no longer allowing these things to deter me from my growth and progress! I’m getting stronger at the gym again and it’s just time to kick my butt into high gear to get to where I once was and better! It isn’t the year of consistency for me for no reason!
We got this ladies! 💪🏽💪🏽
Gained a lot of weight over the past 2years because of stress and a change of routine...I used to play/train for basketball 4/5times a week and because I love it,it didn't feel like exercise. But with covid we weren't allowed to and boy did my body feel it...I am still trying to figure out what types of exercises I like that I can do at home should another lockdown happen so I stay consistent. I find generally my personality gets bored quick so I switch it up almost everyday and that has been working for me. I have a terrible sweet tooth though and need to fix that. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey, I know so many people can relate to it. I wish you all the best and keep trying different alternatives till you reach your goal!💗
Thank you for being so open and honest, there’s a lot of soul searching that goes into taking control of what you consume. Happy for you sis! ❤️
Absolutely🙌🏽 it is a mental & emotionally journey as much as it is a physical one. Thank you for watching💗
This is very informative! I am still on my journey and these tips are really good! Well done girl! You look great! ❤️❤️
I am so glad you found it helpful & good luck on your journey😊 Thank you so much!💗
This is one of the best most helpful videos I’ve seen! Thank you so much!!!
I came across this video while I was searching for the thigh master. I’ll just say the Lord is always right on time!! I needed this information. Everything about this video is giving me life! Not only she’s beautiful, Im loving the statement on the sweatshirt and the shoe game..it’s all fierce just like her!! ❤️💃🏾
Congratulations, you look great! Thank you for sharing your weight loss journey. I am walking right now trying to stay focused! 🙏🏽😊💯🏃🏿♀️
Yep, dropping soda (diet or regular) and fruit juices definitely makes a huge difference. To make water more "exciting" add mint leaves, lemon, cucumber, or even ginger slices. And make sure the water is filtered because you can taste the difference compared to plain tap.
Thank you so much! I was so shocked because clothes that were loose on me last year are now cutting off my circulation. I kept my weight down throughout the whole pandemic except for the last few months.
I’m going to jump rope because one of my goals is to build up my heart muscle. I want to do cardio but not cardio that’ll backfire. I’m so glad I live on top of the biggest hill in DC lol.
Diet is most important so I’ll fast and only eat fish, fruits and veggies, starches and complex carbs.
Thank you girl. Very encouraging, I’m definitely gonna try this.
I am on this journey as I write. I appreciate hearing about these tips. They are very helpful. I'm going to keep going. Cheers.
I love your encouragement. Cutting out those sugary drinks is huge for sure (even gatorade)! And being consistent even when there aren't immediate results is also a big one as I tend to give up too easily. I have been successful at losing weight twice since 2015 with only diet changes (45 and 20 lbs lost respectively) but put the weight back on. I'm a similar height and weight to you when you started. I have tried restarting so many times since 2020 and kept quitting because of no immediate results. Now I have lost 10 pounds in 7 weeks with portion control and eating at a calorie deficit. One thing that has stuck with me that a nutritionist told my husband and it helped us tremendously to make changes- half your plate should be veggies and fruit. I'm trying to lose the weight slower and in a healthier way. The major loss was due to a very restrictive diet I did for decreasing the inflammation in my body and I lost nearly 50 lbs in 6 months. I have begun walking about every other day as far as is reasonable with my chronic pain condition.
Love this 💙 You did amazing! Currently down 20lbs with the help of consistency, MyFitnessPal, water, working out and intermittent fasting. Feels great to be in better shape! 💪🏾
That is so amazing, well done! It really is the best feeling when you're taking care of your body right! Thank you for sharing💗
Yess My Fitness Pal app also helped me. I lost a total of 12 lbs so far and doing other things like giving up meat for breakfast ❤️🥰
I’m actually doing intermittent fasting now and using my fitness pal , i eat better 10am- 5pm just one meal … i hope to get where you are
2020 I went from 200lbs to 145lbs…I took advantage during the time. Ive since gained it all back and trying to motivate myself to lose again. I have to find another motivating factor outside of the norm of wanting to just lose
i am in the exact same boat as you…. hoping I can begin changing again for the better thus august
I went from 200 to 156 in 2020 and have gained it all back and then some. I’m starting over now and I hate that I lwt myself get to this point again. I’m unhappy with the way that I look but I’m keeping myself motivated and I’m going to lose the weight AGAIN
Very informative, and concise & to the point! Loved the pictures for reference and all the helpful tips. Definitely earned my subscription!
Looking forward to seeing more content: What you eat in a day, what counting calories looks like for you, workout vids, and even closet tours cause girl your sneaker collection is fire!
Thank you so much Cindy🥺 & thanks for the video suggestions, I will definitely have more content for you soon💗
This is the most down to earth advice I have heard on this subject for a long time.
Lelia , Dianne and so many other’s on this journey 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾keep of the great work we all have to start some where 🙏🏽♥️✌🏾👑🌹
I love this! I lost 40 pounds too! And I know it’s not easy! I feel like your story is just like mine and I was the fatter friend! And it made me start my UA-cam too! Congratulations! I feel you more than anyone❤️
Nice to see you here 😂😂😂😂🙆🏾♀️🙆🏾♀️🙆🏾♀️
@@ellaravery3524 haha hey sis😉😘
How long did it take u?
@@chynajohnson3482 it depends on how hard you go! But you can completely transform your body in 3 months
Losing 40 pounds in 2 months sounds very difficult- the most I can lose in 2 months is about 13 pounds, maybe her metabolism is fast.
It’s really comforting to know that I’m on the right track. Thanks for the video and the words of encouragement ❤️
Love how you kept it real/to the point! 👏🏽
Thank you so much for this video ❤️ It really inspired me to quit all beverages except water and walk to help me lose weight
This is the realest video on weight loss that I’ve ever watched coz I did absolutely the same thing during lockdown! This video just reminded me of how beneficial all these things were and I’ll happily get back into them (I gained all my weight back cos I went back to eating and drinking all those things 😅)
I remember walking everywhere, I swear I didn’t gain weight, I need to start doing that again
It honestly makes such a big difference!💗
Same! I used to live in NYC and walked all the time. In NJ, I drive everywhere. 😔 I miss living in a walking-friendly town.
thank you babes. congratulations on your weight loss 🤍
These are great tips! I have found drinking warm beverage like water with lime or unsweetened herbal tea especially helpful in curbing hunger and cravings. Thanks again!
That sounds like a good idea Natya, I need to try💗
Perfect timing. I weighed myself the other day and I was 165.2 and I’m 5’4. Thanks to Covid I gained 30lbs from working from home
You look absolutely amazing and I'm so grateful that you remain aware of the mental and emotional components - thank you!!!💜🤗
Excellent video!! I really appreciate the honesty in your approach. It was refreshing and encouraging.
Thank You
This is me right now. Calorie counting is hard because feeling hungry sucks. Lol BUT I am not giving up and looking forward to losing the weight. I moved to the suburbs after living in the city forever so I haven’t been good about getting around like I used to (I work from home). Baby steps.
Congratulations on losing all the weight. Your skin looks AMAZING.
Tell me about it, feeling hungry is hard to fight sometimes but I love your determination, you've got this girl!🙌🏽 Thank you so much for sharing and your lovely comment💗
i’m 5’ 10 and starting at 185. my goal is 160-155. i’ve gotten down to 165 but then at lot had changed in my life and i gained the 20 and i’ve noticed an awful change in my health. this has helped a lot in giving me a bit of motivation! Will hopefully be able to update in 2 months!
I’m the same height + same goal! I was down to 158 pre-pandemic but I never got back down after gaining weight during lockdown. I recently started back to my healthy eating plan and trying to be more consistent with workouts (I used to be a total gym RAT, and now it’s constantly a struggle to get to the gym). This is motivating me as well!
I would add that, from a psychological and research perspective, a lot of people struggle to maintain new changes because most advice is about taking things away. It’s easier to add to than to take away. With that being said, like a lot of fitness people often suggest, “change your diet first!” For me, I did the exact opposite. I was eating bad but I was walking and I was seeing changes in my body. Naturally I started eating better because you start to get in tune with your body and you notice how much better you feel when you eat better. I can eat lunch without getting tired. But if I eat a donut I notice I get instantly tired. I would also suggest before and after pics during the journey. I weigh as much as I do now as I did in august and my body is visibly different. My glutes have grown and are rounder and my waist is a 34 when it was a 37. The scale is just a part of the story. This is just my two cents. However, I love the video! Very great information.
Thank you for posting this video and helpful tips. I have been struggling to get my weight under control and stressed about it more than I should. These tips are the basic foundation for healthy living. Today I begin this journey with these tips. THANK YOU ❤
Great video and very helpful tips, you look amazing! One more suggestion I would share that has worked for my weight loss journey is intermittent fasting. Rather than counting calories, which can be rather annoying for many (at least it is for me), I've found that fasting between meals has helped me tremendously as well. Thanks for sharing, keep up the excellent selfcare work!
Omg this was soooooo helpful!!!! Great tips!!! I also weigh myself daily and at first I tried to talk myself out of doing that but now I depend on my scale. It def makes me even more dedicated to my journey!! Thanks girl New subbie for sure ❤️
I feel so seen… thanks for sharing your history. We shared so much of our experience and THAT is what made me so keen to listen to your advice. Love this and feeling inspired!!!! Fellow twin sister and short queen here lol 😂❤
You’re absolutely gorgeous 🥰💖🙌🏽. Great video! Very inspirational & helpful😉🤗
I want to say adding green tea in your diet is SOO GREAT OMG! It be boosting my metabolism throughout the day. I recommend drinking it morning and night. But if you want to get rid of the bloating feeling in the morning then take it at night before bed. If you want to boost your digestion then take it in the morning. (I’m not even gonna lie recently I’ve been drinking it with sugar and lemon juice but it still work obviously not as well but it did something. I normally drink it bland tho when It’s night cause I’m lazy lol)
Congratulations on your weight loss. Sidenote, your makeup looks bomb and I would love to see your makeup routine
Thank you Tasha!💗 I have a makeup routine coming for you very soon xx
Yes her make up is gorgeous
Great video and so polished - hope to see lots more content from you!!
Also you're so naturally beautiful; and your photos show that you always have been! 💖
Thank you so much Nia, such a beautiful comment🥺💗
Love that this is short and straight to the point👌🏾
So nice to see a beautiful young woman on you tube without everything hanging out. Great video. Thank you. You have really motivated me
Very helpful, thanks for sharing. This was the motivation I needed
Thank you for this post! I have had 2 babies within the last 2 years so I now have 40lbs to lose and this was very helpful. I love your energy ❤
Just started my journey I was 259 in January when I weighed myself last week I was 239 that gave me motivation to join the gym had my first full workout today and Im completely motivated, want to loose 40 more before august , hopefully by working out 3 times a week and doing the OMAD diet I can get there 🤞🏾💗
Love the video. I’m 5’4 and I also try to get in 10K steps a day. I absolutely despise the scale. Once a week is all I can do. Love the sneaker collection display too. I’ve gone from stilettos to unique sneakers. Very nice.
Once a week is a healthy length of time to weigh yourself & it’s important to do what makes you feel comfortable. Thank you so much I love sneakers as you can tell😅💗
I stopped eating late and went to be a tad bit earlier and it helped a lot. I do workouts that target specific areas 3-4 times a week for 30 minutes. I drink green tea every morning (bland) and I drink water a lot.
Well done! Keep up the good work!💗
Could you please share your exercise regimen?
@@JumokeBiodunKuti
I don't have a specific regimen but I can share tips with you.
-I started incorporating green tea in my diet (Lipton Green tea Decaffeinated tea bags) and do not add any sugar or sweetners.
-3 different workouts that targets what I want to work on. Stomach, butt, and legs.
(Chloe Ting and Cindy Flores)
-I no longer eat past 9:00 p.m. unless I come late from work and I'm starving. If I eat late from work it has to be a snack that I can digest.
-My sleep schedule is 11:00 or 11:30 p.m. Sometimes I come home from work late so I don't count that on my discipline schedule.
-Drink at least 3 bottles of water a day. I stopped drinking sugary drinks on a daily. I'll have a soft drink here and there if I'm eating food to help me digest better.
I've started a lot of bad eating habits since the pandemic. Including eating late and directly out of the chip bag. Never used to do that. Started working out last week.
