WHEN she saw the scales read 472lbs, Amy wanted to rewrite her life. The 27-year-old from Harleysville, Pennsylvania had tried to lose weight before but it did not stick. In 2019, Amy started keto and despite sustaining a back injury, which left her immobile for months, she managed to lose 250lbs. Now back on her feet, Amy’s living life to the full and is moving in ways she never thought possible. As a result of her huge weight loss, Amy has a lot of loose skin and feels self-conscious about it but also proud of how far she has come and today she will be revealing it to her friend Caitlin. Amy told Truly: “Through losing this weight and through finding keto I feel like I can do anything now. I feel like Superwoman.”

So glad she has that love and support. People are everything. And they can make or break you.
No you make or break yourself.
That’s love. He loved her no matter what size she is.
Yesss🥺
well tbh hes not all that
@@pickleeggs3340 not all that?
But will she keep loving him when hotter options start presenting themselves to her? 🤔only time will tell
@@pickleeggs3340 🤣😂 bet your Brad pit
For someone who lost she 250lbs, she doesn’t have THAT much loose skin, honestly. She made out better than a lot of the other people featured on this channel.
I thought the same! Maybe her age? I think when you're younger you bounce back a bit better.
Because she is still 220 pounds. It would be more drastic when she goes under 180 pounds. And yes age and genetics matter too.
I’ve been obese my entire life. The moment that changed everything was the summer of 2019. My knees hurt so bad after my work shift (I work at a store), I wasn’t able to walk up the streets of Lisbon on vacation. Being 106 kg (212 pounds) for a 1,58 m girl was too much to handle. I now weigh 87 kg (164 pounds) which is still too much, but thanks to a clean diet and resistance training I feel better and better. I’m so happy for all the people that succeed at their weight loss journeys. 💖
Streets of Lisbon are a true challenge
@@kro0018 they are! Looking forward to climb Lisbon very soon, maybe next year :)
She's beautiful and so courageous to show her lose skin. Mad respect!
I am so touched and inspired! I'm 275 and just started keto. Again! I have TERRIBLE back issues.
You can lose it. All you have to do is DECIDE to lose it. The reason folks never lose it is because they never make the DECISION to lose it. Anybody can start but only the THOROUGHBRED will finish
Why don’t you just eat low calorie dense foods instead of going keto? I’m not trying to pick a fight, I just know tons and tons of people who lose weight on keto, gain it back and go on keto again. Repetitive cycle they don’t even know they are in. I’ve been doing volume eating and practising exposure therapy to “bad” foods for about 3 years now and I’ve lost 105 pounds with keeping it off. You do you, but my piece would be to make healthy versions of unhealthy foods :). Good luck on your journey
I am on a journey, lost 60 pounds on keto and intermittent fasting.... Never felt better!
60 lb in how much ? i started keto two weeks ago and lost 14 lb
Why keto though? You can easily lose weight by just cutting out junk food.
A bowl of rice is not a bowl of potatoe chips if you know what i mean.
@@datatsushi2016 a bowl of rice is essentially a bowl of sugar..... Watch Dr Berg on UA-cam, he's a genius and explains!
@@s77x05 six months!
I'm always confused with keto because I try it and i get minimal weight loss, I don't exercise I'm not sure how much you're supposed to eat. I actually need to lose 60 ibs myself.
You should be very proud for what you accomplished. Best wishes to you.
I just love this program, and it keeps me going and continue to inspire me on my weight loss journey🙌🏾❤️
I'd admire people who change their lives through weight loss then can bare all and show there excess skin xx
This was so inspiring. I love when people just keep it 100% honest about how they feel. No fake positivity, just real expression.. kudos to her! 🥰
Wow what a gorgeous looking girl even at her heaviest she was beautiful, so happy for her she is much healthier now ❤

She looks amazing and is so beautiful. She should be so proud!
Great job girl. Don’t worry about your loss skin your health is most important
What a wonderful inspiring story! I've been keto since the last week in december I've lost 40 lbs so far! Thank you amy for sharing your story!💙🦋💚
You go!! Thank you for watching
Is keto like only fat and protein?
@@melancholyandtheinfiniteketo is limiting daily carbohydrates intake to 20 grams or less per day.
Wow that is awesome!
You go girl. She is very pretty. You got this. Respect ✊
Thank you 😊
There is so much raw hard work and determination here. Proud of you girl! Truly an inspiration for others out there. ❤
There’s lots of amazing weight loss stories of this channel, with good, lovely people, but this lady’s story is honestly my favourite!
Incredible is the only word I can think of ❤ she's amazing 👏 you go girl
These kind of videos are so refreshing and amazing! What a beautiful girl she is and i love her personality, a true inspiration!!
So much hard work and it paid off. Congrats to this beautiful woman.
Her friend and husband need to get on keto with her!
472 lbs?
My god.
And people complain about being 2 pounds overweight...
RIGHT!? hahaha.. that's what i tell my skinny friends.. it's like are you kidding me.. I can put 2 lbs on overnight by drinking water and eating food
you did great - happy new life
I've battled alcoholism for years. Went from 150 to 270. I've been sober simce jan and keto for 2 weeks. The scale wont move.
Well done you're such an inspiration
@Blob Monster I'm not a fan of veganism.especially as I dont want anti nutrients and lectins etc as I want maximum absorption of nutrients and less stress of my detox organs. I will take a look at the link. Thankyou
You can do it!
She looks so much younger!!!!!!
Man I’m about to hop on this keto diet!! I’m PROUD OF YOU BOO 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
It always amazes me that the loose skin can be hidden so well under the clothing!
Proud of you girl.
No matter where you are...that’s where you start. Great job! You show how important mindset is
I am so happy for you. You were and are beautiful. You inspire me. Keto and intermittent fasting should get rid of some of the loose skin. Even if it doesn’t, think of how strong you are and what you have accomplished. Not everyone can do what you have and continue to do. The man in your life is so loving. Lucky you. Keep going.
So much patience and consistency😍😍😍great job👍👍👍👍
Well done!! We are so proud of you! Everybody loves hard working people who work to achieve their goals :)
Well done super hun
Keto reved up my metabolism. I had 4 kids. Great job chic. Dancing amd twerking helps my back. If even a little movement goes a long way love. You got it
After I lost 200 pounds I had skin removal surgery it was life changing. It was a relief. That was 11 years ago.
Yay Amy 🎉 so happy for her progress
I hope she gets the funds to help with her lose skin. She is beautiful 😍
Amy, congrats. No looking back. I also, since 12/5/22 started a low carb, no sugar life style. I'm also doing Intermittent Fasting. I've lost so far 25 lbs. I too ask myself. Why did I do this to my self. My starting weight was 250. Anyway, I want to encourage you and continue forward. This is the new you, so embrace then new Amy.
Beautiful gal..... keep going and get the skin reduction when YOU are ready, Queen‼️👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
Wow this is very inspirational I’m 43 years old, I’m 5’2 and weigh 300 and I would love nothing else than to lose the weight... I’m self conscious and not happy with myself or the way I look
Amethyst Angel thank you it really means alot 🥰
Amethyst Angel likewise
You can do it love !! It’s all about creating a new set of habits !
Amy Ellis I really appreciate your kind words ❤️
@@marthatenorio1527 I know it feels impossible now , but if you make one change a week for a year .. you’ll be amazed at what can change! ❤️
You are gorgeous! 💜 May the lord keep blessing you with good things
Geeez, and here I am complaining about having to lose 25lbs. That is an AMAZING weight journey. Congratulations!
This is motivation. It is nice to have a supportive people.
Aww she’s beautiful!
She looks amazing ❤️
Amazing!!! You're a beautiful woman with admirable strength. :)
I guess its my time now!!
Yep double chin I can help you if u wanted
Are you a real Kim Jong -Un or you just pretending to be him please tell me the truth 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Speak up girlll YOU DID IT YOU ARE THERE 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
She was about to say that’s gross.
But time to get it chopped out!! That’s 40 more lbs down
You look amazing. I am so, so happy for you.
When I had my abdominoplasty after losing 200 pounds I felt amazing.
I wanna see more of that!! Cause in this society people think it's okay to be fat cause of body positivity. Fat is unhealthy people should get that
Your way of thinking is unhealthy.
Some people have hormonal defects that don't allow us to lose weight you're a horrible person for thinking that. Some people can't help it
You look great. Fantastic good 👍. I also was 450 and lost 246. Yes skin skin skin, but I did it. And I'm happier than I ever been.
OMG so happy to hear someone else has done it! I have more than 200lbs to lose and am slowly working on it. I invite you to my channel to perhaps give and receive support. ua-cam.com/channels/KoWSm0q87xJA9Fd0JrCJAg.htmlabout
Certified Gold!!!!!
Congratulations- incredible transformation
Amazing transformation. Proud of you Girl. I wish many will see and watch you as an example.
These videos are giving me so much hope!
There was another video about a lady that was pretty overweight and she was saying how happy she was with her body. I had back and forth arguments with people Bc I commented that the lady was beautiful but probably wasn’t really happy. Just like this girl in on the pictures she had a beautiful smile … but sometimes the smiles hide the hurt and pain. People and society should encourage people to be healthy Bc that’s what’s best for people. Not over or under weight. But of course in a loving way. Her husband didn’t want to hurt her by talking to her about her weight but the reality is she was already hurting. I believe it’s possible to support and encourage people and be honest at the same time. I don’t think pretending issues doesn’t exist help anyone.
Well done xxx
Is it possible to use excess skin for skin grafts? You could donate it and get free removal surgery as a reward!
Nice idea but it's better to use the patient's own skin for grafts so theres less chance of rejection
Yes, it can be donated. While it's better to use a patient's own skin, there are applications where skin grafts are needed for a patient whose own skin can't be harvested from another site (severe burn cases, for example). Skin from cadavers, skin removal surgery, and even from animals (such as tilapia and pigs), is used in temporary grafts that act like bandages until the patient's own tissue heals.
Wow!!!! WHAT A FACE ON THIS BEAUTY♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Congratulations... You look fabulous... And I'm sure you feel like a million
Good job! Congratulations! On your weight loss that’s a ton weight to lose without giving up cause I struggled whenever I have to lose 5lbs which is usually around Christmas or new year’s since that’s when I slack off and eat what ever the hell I want. I can never totally imagined having to lose 250lbs let alone 10lbs-15lbs considering it took me 2 years to 3 Years to lose the freshmen 15 maybe 19 for me .
Fifty nine thousand views ...if we all just send a dollar she would have the money for the skin surgery!
I went on the keto diet and only lost 8 lbs in about 5 months. I usually only eat dinner so when I went on the keto I was eating 2 hard boiled eggs for breakfast I usually skipped lunch because I wasn't hungry and I ate a small dinner. I stayed away from carbs & sweets I only ate what was on the diet. My husband did the diet with me and he was lost 25lbs and didnt want to lose anymore because he started looking to thin.
Stunning woman. Well done lovely.
She looks 10 years younger! great job!
Congratulations you look so Amazing. Keep up the Great work.
I'm so happy for u iv just started my journey I'm in pain all the time physically and mentally.seeun u gives me hope for me thanks for that ur amazing
All of them who said that they were concerned about Ammy's weight, should lose weight their self and be concerned about their own weight...
Edit: no body shaming, I had been there myself and had been an extremely over weight girl too ...
She’s so sweet. And prettty
Wow, she lost more than I weight! Here I am, sitting at 240 and finding it so challenging to lose 80-100 pounds. Good job girl!
Down to 228 as of today, nothing will stop me!
Wow you look great 👍 you lost weight the right way that's why your loose skin does not even look bad
Beautiful lady. So happy for you. Wish you well 💖
You are so pretty 😍 you go girl! 😘
wow your amazing person you deserve. every good that comes your way!!!👍always have faith and believe in yourself that you achieve everything that comes your way
She has willpower for weight loss. She’s proud of herself it assumes like. She’s beautiful and she conquered her weight loss through hard times.
WHAT YOU HAVE DONE IS ADDMIRABLE.
you are so gorgeous. The before and after ... just shocked !
Look at this girl glow!!! Beautiful transformation with a good man beside her.
I am so happy for her. I am on my own personal journey and I know how hard it is to keep going, so for her to have lost so much is incredible. 👏👏👏
You can do it Tina!
Wow! Congrats!
How i wish me too do that...
All honey...first congratulations! That is not easy to start a new life habit. I also went through that. I had a tummy tuck..best thing I ever did...
Such a beautiful warrior 💜 so proud of you 👏🏿
250lbs???? You’re amazing!
So much love and blessings to you!!
Love keto! Still doing it too! Lost 66lbs!
Imagine how fine shes gonna be without the loose skin👍 great job girl!! ❤️
Congrats....!!
I love keto! I've been vegetarian keto since Dec 1 this year and have lost 40 lbs. I could literally stay on this diet for life. There's so many options now. 20 years ago I did atkins and it was so hard. There was nothing. Keto and atkins are similar and ....
Love keto! You look great!
Yassssss girl!!!!!!!
I’m not at all trying to detract from this woman’s accomplishments, as what she’s achieved is truly inspirational and though I’m a stranger I’m proud of her. But, just once I wish we could get a video of someone recovered from an ED/starvation/just being underweight who gained weight healthily and became healthy. It’s just disheartening not seeing any representation anywhere. Though it’s nice hearing different stories from different people it’s hard seeing the same body type over and over. It sucks seeing little content for others who have overcome the opposite. You see so many videos of people overcoming disabilities, losing weight, getting ginormous butt implants/body building, but I have never seen a video of someone going from underweight to a healthy/curvy figure. Even though I’m not male it would be even better to see a video of a man who overcame his eating disorder as men with eating disorders get nearly zero representation or support anywhere. It would just be nice to see someone go from underweight to a healthy weight. But, props to this woman for overcoming her struggles, and if you’re in a similar boat as her you’re doing great. Be kind to yourself, and take it a day at a time.
I totally get what you are saying! And you said it very respectfully :)
Sarah W I totally agree with you one hundred percent
@@ballerinaprincess09 Thanks, I didn’t want to take the spotlight away from her, but underweight people struggle too. It sucks not seeing that shown anywhere even though there are plenty of forums and communities for those struggling with weight gain. It also sucks that thin individuals have become the target for the public’s push back against skinny being the industry standard for so long. We are individuals just like everyone else, we had/have no control over what magazines put on their covers decades ago. It’s especially tough because the same people that bully skinny people are the same people that deny skinny people are bullied.
*Taking steps to be healthier should be celebrated no matter what part of the body type spectrum you’re on.*
I agree. I was an anorexic, an exercise binger, and a laxitator, and a deadly size 2/4. I am very big boned. I am now a loud and proud healthy size 18. I eat healthy, and exercise moderately. We need a video of someone gaining healthy weight. I have cheeks now. My cheeks were sunken in.
@@shirleygiordano7627 I’m so happy to hear that! It gives me hope that I can do the same once my living situation is sorted out (no available apartments in my area due to COVID). Good for you for overcoming that.
She's soo beautiful 😍
It's amazing how perfect the keto diet really is, and how it's slowly dawning on her friend she's no longer the skinny one
Shes so beautiful
You did great. Serious question; where are these pants from. They are just wow
ZIYA!! Thank you 🙏🏼
She’s beautiful
She is beautiful 😍😍😍
I'll never stop being amazed how such huge people find love and I was always pretty but never been loved.
My last boyfriend called me butterball at about 20 pounds overweight and always told me he could do better.... I don't care how much I weigh but I will never associate with anyone who lacks the capacity to love.
Never accept anything less going forward!!!!! You're last boyfreind was a narcissistic A$$hole!! It doesn't matter what we weigh, we are B You tiful!!!!!!!
Hope you told him..... off you go then bye bye when he said that to you. Reword it you can do better than him!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
@@Flutterfly78 Thank you ! I used to say to him " who the hell says that " ? And I did leave him.
He still messages me but I never respond.. Quick update : I have lost a bunch of weight and feel awesome ! Funny how the negative people keep you down.
@@yvettethomas5533 Thank you.. He actually did have narcissistic personality disorder.. Who knew !
I always thought he was right and I wasn't good enough
@@helenachase78 your welcome. Good on you for telling him, and remember he’s the one trying to message you still! Well done 👏🏻 keep feeling great about your self. You deserve too
Good for you! You must feel so much better physically. I'm so glad you found that inner strength to focus on 'Project Me'. :^)
