I look forward to the video on how you learned to love exercise.
THIS was the video I wish I had seen years ago. I love how you emphasize "wellness" that starts with your brain, and avoiding rigid unrealistic expectations, and the negative affect they have on mental health.
I want to gently encourage you, to, if you feel so moved, discuss how you became both realistic and balance focused on the pod. I think focusing on the long journey of self improvement ( not perfection) rather than focusing on the experience of the ED is not only encouraging for those still stuck, but also a good balance of authenticity and responsibility.

but as always please put your mental health and journey first
Hello, Caroline. Whats the name of your podcast. I can’t find it. Would love to subscribe.😊
Wait a minute …who are these people who hate olives?
@@karis7649 😂😂, ikr!?
Madam… nutritionist here who used to have an eating and exercise disorder- this is one of the best takes I’ve ever seen from a non-professional. (Even better than many professional takes!) thank you for sharing this vulnerable topic with us and for being responsible with it too. You’re a gem in this cesspool of an internet.
I get a feeling a lot of these really skinny girls on YT and models....Don't eat as much as they claim in their videos.
Can’t tell you how much it meant to me to read this. I’ve really struggled with how to talk about this. And ultimately I landed on..the truth. I’m very relieved that it is landing well. Thanks for this comment ❤
@@aa.4639yes! That’s literally what this whole video is about 😉
Same thoughts completely. I’m a registered dietitian who works with folks with eating disorders and Caroline…you are a beam of light. By the language you use it is evident the amount of work you put in to recovery ❤ so proud of you!! I see the subtle, yet key changes in the way you talk about food, like using quotations for “healthy” food since what even is that!?! Away with the morality labels!!! So grateful for the messages you are sharing in this video and your exercise video🙏🏻 Sending you love on your journey in body acceptance. (Ps. we often hear about body positivity, but body neutrality is also a great starting point or end goal for folks who struggle with body image). 🥰
@@aa.4639 yessss…. I have long suspected the same. I think a lot of disordered eating is being dressed up as “healthy” using misrepresentation like that, plus use of trendy diet-world buzzwords that I won’t even repeat here because they’ve been so misused.
When I lived in Belgium I was SHOCKED to see how many fries Belgians eat… They have freakin chocolate sprinkles for breakfast. And then I’m like-they bike and walk everywhere, they eat their greens, real food, and it all balances out. No diet, no restriction, just moderation. And that is what life should be.
Thanks for the video ❤
Once a week is the standard here hahah but our fries are better than those of fastfoodchains dont you think
In Europe we feel te same pressures as American women do. The idea that Europeans can just eat what they want and don't worry about dieting is one of the biggest scams of the century.
@@charmaine8261 It is different. Believe me
@@eily_b As a Dutch woman... no it's not.
I fell in love with Belgian frites when I was fortunate enough to visit Brussels. ❤️ And I walked a LOT! 😊
Thank you for addressing how *angry* people will get at those of us who don't cook. I'm not hurting anybody with my sandwiches, cans of soup, and salads. Leave me alone.
Me too! I'm a 40 year old married woman with no children and my husband and I are just kinda lazy and don't care to cook. We put together a lot of simple stuff, sandwiches, frozen pizzas, fast food, take out, whatever, and people are so judgey 😂 I know it's not the healthiest diet, but we're working towards that and don't have any health issues and we're not hurting anyone, LOL! Get off our backs. If we want to live on a "Frat Boy" diet, that's our business, we're happy 😁 We know how to cook, but just choose not to.
If your sandwich has pieces of a dead animal on it, yes you are hurting someone.
@@MeretC10 Did I say it did?
I know you're probably just trolling so I hope you get the attention you're looking for
Most of the WIEIAD videos are great examples of “ain’t no one got time for that” 😂 like I love that some people can be their own bosses, but some of us don’t have careers that allow that and we do not have that much time in the morning:)!
Nobody really cares. Moreover more people do unhealthy stuff less competision in life other people have. It's a good thing :)
“Sometimes the honest version of me is not always responsible” uuugghhhh this is my exact problem when people ask how I lost so much weight. I’m stealing this line Caroline!! ❤
Yes! I loved that she said this bc I do things myself that could be considered "not healthy", so when people ask me how I keep my weight off, I have a hard time answering.
I think you're taking it in the exact opposite way she meant it. She didn't mean it as an excuse for undereating or restrictive dieting or losing "so much weight"...
Man, I just really appreciate the thoughtfulness you bring, Caroline. It’s clear that you think about what you’re doing (making videos, educating, “putting a camera on yourself”) with a sense of responsibility. Thank you!
thank you, i really needed this. was a tough one to make
I understand and so appreciate the effort and thoughtfulness that went into creating this video. I continue to believe you are a miracle Caroline.
Caroline you really are wonderful and are making the world a better, safer place through your honesty, humor and thoughtfulness. Thank you so much for sharing this insight into your past and present.
I love this video except for one part: saying “no judgment” at the 0:41 mark doesn’t negate the judgement that follows. She is literally saying that “what I eat in a day” vloggers are being dishonest. Her thumbnail for this video literally says “LIAR.” Umm… that’s judgment.
But I think the rest of what she had to say was great, and very thoughtful.
@@calisongbird Caroline has a very tongue in cheek sense of humor. Personally, I love it ! She's a breath of fresh air in our overly politically correct society.
I remember watching a what I eat in a day from a popular influencer and she said "I put half a banana in my breakfast every day. I can't believe i used to eat a whole banana, thats so many calories!" And I immediately felt bad about eating a whole banana at once 🙃 people really can't think enough about what they put on the internet!
who tf saves half a banana? soo full of shit. lol I cannot stand calorie talk. ugh. Bananas were made to be eaten whole.
@@Cole_Cross I KNOW! So weird 😂😂😂
The half banana thing used to upset me. I ate a whole banana or didn't eat a banana. If I want a banana, I'll eat a whole one. That's it.
@@marilynbeth5993 😆😆😆🤪
Even my 2 yo eats a whole banana. Why world is like this?!
Can we all just take a minute to appreciate that Caroline left her groceries at her door, went in to set the camera on the table, started to roll tape, put on the sunglasses, and then came back in with the groceries? The work it takes to nail a great scene. 👏
Definitely
Glad to know I'm not the only one who thought of this. LOL This is why I don't make videos. Too freaking much work.
Exactly my thoughts.
I don’t want to know what people eat in a day, as they might not have the same food the following day. I know that I certainly won’t have what they eat in a day. I don’t believe they are trying to boast, rather than educate us. Useless and unnecessary use of their time, but gullible people do watch these silly videos, otherwise we wouldn’t have that many.
@@DVB1848Agree, I have as much interest in seeing what people eat in a day as I want to see their meals on Instagram. Who cares?
I'm 16 now, and less than a year ago I was diagnosed with anorexia. I'm still not eating solid foods, but it does feel really relieving to hear someone say this. Thanks!
I recently started treatment for a manic disorder, and I hope we both get to a point where we can call ourselves "recovered" (sorry if this was weird btw)
@@ahhh4117 Yes hopefully! Wishing you all the best! (It's not weird at all.)
@@mollieirvine1026 I’m proud of you!!
@@Hello-fy6oo Aww thank you so much! I have been making a lot of progress since I posted this. Thank you so much for your support!!
i can relate to your situation so much- but i just want to say that im proud of you because even if you’re not eating solid foods, *you are still eating* and that’s what’s important!! i hope that soon you’ll be able to overcome this🤍🤍🤍
“i’m tired of men forcing me to drink black coffee” caroline is my hero
yes this coffee thing is such a pet peeve of mine, people act like they're better than everyone else because they drink they coffee black like MAM ITS JUST A DRINK YOU'RE ALLOWED TO PUT SUGAR IN IT
@@biaandrade506 I drink black coffee but don’t judge anyone who doesn’t. I happen to drink very high quality coffee (Peet’s Organic French Roast) and it tastes great black.
I do like to put flavored extracts in the grounds before brewing though. Around the holidays I use peppermint. Most of the time I use vanilla and a sprinkle of cinnamon. It gives a hint of flavor without being overwhelming or cloying.
But if I’m anywhere that serves subpar or more “pedestrian” coffee, I’ll use cream.
Pedestrian coffee😂😂😂 coffee of the peasants
🙌🏼 coffee with cream + maple syrup and always after breakfast. Coffee is a metabolic stimulant that needs gas in the tank to avoid creating a stress response. We have enough stressors in life - black coffee definitely isn't worth it!
@@rachelvaughn60 lol! Exactly 😉
Caroline: "I don't want to do one of those videos."
Also Caroline: does one that is 1000 times more valuable.
As a fellow recovering non-intuitive eater, thank you!
It's sooo okay not to cook! I remember when foodie culture was taking off a decade + ago, a classmate pointed out that cooking homemade food was suddenly elevated to a virtue that we all accepted without question. But some people just don't enjoy cooking and there's NOTHING wrong with not enjoying it.
cooking is extremely difficult for me and i don't enjoy it. it's partially difficult because of my adhd and other mental health things. but i want to cook more so that i can make myself more healthy things esp tofu . as a vegan i need as much protein as i can get but it's hard sometimes cause convenient foods aren't always the most nutritious. but i really try to show myself compassion because berating myself or feeling guilt is never helpful, actually it's harmful and makes it more difficult to cook. compassion is so important, thanks for showing compassion to people who struggle to cook
@@QUEERVEEART mood! I love cooking for my boyfriend because he finds it stressful bc of his autism and adhd, my autism does make it stressful sometimes depending on the recipe but ya
@@ijk9492 that is really kind of you to do!!! i think i might be autistic but i dont have the official diagnosis, but i do for adhd so i know for sure i am neurodivergent. i have intense texture issues with certain food, and refuse to consume large pieces of certain vegetables. however, i am really afraid of knives even tho im 30. so its really difficult to actually get the vegetables to an edible size for me on my own x.x i do live with my parents and sometimes they will help me with that kinda stuff so i am very lucky and blessed there. but i hope to live on my own one day and not sure what i will do then :|
Is really weird to me cause cooking is def a cultural thing as well; the foodie trends basically had the same half dozen recipes at a time with no consideration to different backgrounds; from a bunch of Nutella on everything to a bunch of white kids that grew up in suburbia acting like they grew up eating kimchi or something similar.
@@QUEERVEEART Some extremely simple "recipes" I make for quick meals are: (1) get a can of refried beans and grocery store tostadas, spread beans on tostada, microwave 20ish seconds, add some salsa and maybe guac; (2) cut whole wheat bread into circles with a cookie cutter, spread with hummus, top with a cuke slice. Also, rice with a can of chickpeas and whatever sauce is on hand also makes a yummy meal.
Gosh... Brazilian psychologist here and I’m definitely sharing this with some of my patients. I’ve had a teeerrible relationship with food before, and so I decided to specialize in eating habits and eating disorders, so most of my patients would benefit from watching this as a reference of some things we already work on during our sessions. Love this!
That sounds absolutely lovely
voce é de onde? eu nunca conheci nenhuma psicologa especializada em t.a.
Girl, I am so GLAD you don't post about food. I wish more UA-camrs were responsible about this topic
really appreciate hearing that 💜
YES!!
So many of those “what I eat in a day” videos feel so fake and forced. Even the cadence of the vlogger is the same in every single one. I love the uniqueness Caroline brings instead of getting in line with what everyone else does.
@@Caroline_Winkler I did buy dried mango after seeing one of your videos where you were eating it. It's delicious. #influenced 😅
"What a waste of my mental energy."
That statement alone felt cathartic. Thank you for this.
Amen!!!
The feminine rage around protecting your peace and happiness (ie. Coffee creamer, etc) is just *Chef’s Kiss* 💕 It’s sad but true that as women we have to be ANGRY (read *Passionate*) about something for people to LEAVE US THE HELL ALONE about it/out choices.
The coffee rant! I'm here for it! My mum once said, "Why do you drink coffee, if you don't like it?" just because I like lots of milk in my coffee. It's a bean we roast and grind before throwing it in water, because we like how it alters our brain chemicals or something like that. Don't act as if there is only one way to drink roasted beans in water.
Yeah, like we don't say how pure vodka is somehow superior drink, yet coffee must be drank black? There's all the types of drink for a reason!
Season your food to your liking, this includes beverages. ❤
@@black-nails Funny you say that because a lot of black coffee drinkers I know also really like straight whiskey.
same goes for veggies in my opinion..like sorry, unseasoned cooked broccoli tastes awful. Pan-fried in a bit of garlic and spices...I could eat it all day. It's normal for food to have to be prepared in a certain way in order to be satisfying.
@@lostkittenxx Definitely. Now I imagine people bringing the same opinions they have about coffee to every food and drink. 😂
"I only eat plain toast. If you need butter on it, you just haven't used the right bread."
"Why would you put juice in your water? Even just a little? Why do you even drink water if you don't like the taste?"
I noticed my toddler will eat so much for a few days and then barely pick at food for a few days. It’s sometimes good to see food intake in a weekly sense rather than daily because it is more balanced that way! If people want to be more transparent a “what I eat in a week” video would probably be more realistic, or just like this grocery video. Very good idea!
my toddler does the same thing and i was kind of freaking out about it but your comment really made me think and makes sense
Yes we need to find a way back to our toddler selves, and unlearn all the diet nonsense
@@noface____all the kids in my family did this. My mom said it was because sometimes we were growing, sometimes our brains were developing. It just depended on what our bodies needed that day.
@@noface____my kiddos also do the same thing. After my first I learned to just roll with it. Some days they’re hardly hungry at all, others they’re ravenous lol.
natacha oceane (who i found through caroline lol) does what i eat in a week, for the purpose of showing more realistic eating changes over a longer period of time. it's pretty good and she's a great personality too. love her and Caroline so much (who, lucky me, is my namesake :))
As someone who has struggled with an eating disorder and still have food struggles, I find this video wonderful and refreshing. Thank you.
thank you for this. the biggest hug to you
I am in the same boat. 40 years of having to be aware of how my mental health affects my eating, but managing! One day at a time, ladies. You've got this.
I’ve struggled with being a forgetful eater- I forget to eat when I get busy, then end up binge eating when my body gets angry. I’m slowly but surely having to schedule myself to eat several small meals/ ‘grazing’ due to being diabetic type 2 now and having had a GI bleed from a stomach ulcer in my mid forties. It takes a lot of courage to admit to problems with food, and I’m really glad you came out with such a genuinely caring way of telling how you care for yourself now. Thank you.
My sister has adhd (who does this) and my other sister is a nutritionist. What sister b told sister a about this is how small snacks that are easily accessible can help remind you how hungry you are. Ex: maybe you're not aware that you're hungry, until you realize that those crackers were not enough to fill you up. This was advice designed for 1 person so it may not be suited to you, but I thought I'd share anyways
@@ahhh4117 I have ADHD and I do this constantly!!! I love the idea of little snacks thank you for this 🥰
Me af
This describes me to a "T"! This morning, I had a 10 a.m. appt. Got up at 7, drank coffee, took my meds, and forgot to eat something so I could take more meds. Got home, forgot to eat, again forgot to take meds. I finally said "I need to eat something" so I gobbled down an apple, took my meds, and then went on a junk food binge. Seriously, talk about disordered eating!
This is definitely me. I get too focused on school, so sometimes I end up not eating until 3 PM.
So essentially be mindful of what you eat but don't torture yourself otherwise it's not sustainable... I needed this, Thanks!
Thank you for being so brave and honest. I really appreciated someone addressing this weird "what I eat in a day" fanaticism. You are doing good here. Much love ♥️
its a weird video genre that doesn't seem to die. thanks for this support, it means the world
@@Caroline_Winkler can I just say that your thoughts on intuitive eating made me want to stand up and say, "Hallelujah". So many people are on such highly restrictive diets now, and it seems to be all anybody wants to talk about. I have so much sympathy for those who are forced to eat very restrictively or they get sick. I am grateful to the universe that at this point, I can eat most things. What I've noticed though is that the entire conversation with these friends is about food and how they can or cannot eat and I've realized that I think THAT has become a kind of eating disorder. It's always about the diet, and they tend to shame, especially about sugar. More power to you, dear. Congratulations on how far you've come! Great job handling this with responsibility and truthfulness. Oh! I wanna hear your theory on the Sudden Olive Love. My dad had a theory about taste changes too. (ETA: Food is a huge part of life. I dont mean to be insensitive to those who are struggling with these food allergies or issues)
My favorite video to date , thank you for your insight & vulnerability ❤
@@cassondramurray6100 it is an eating disorder, called Orthorexia, or fear of food. Having to eat perfectly (to whatever your perceived standard is) and being averse to the foods you’ve determined you need to avoid. I’ve been there and it was no way to live.
@@solacescalicocritters7256 There's nothing wrong with wanting to eat as healthy as possible and cutting out all the junk food.
Ive seen my mom struggle with her body image all my life. She tried so many diets, so much exercise, trying to get to a place where she was comfortable in her body, and she never really achieved that. I always found her beautiful, my dad worships her, and it's sad for us that she can't see herself the way we see her. So everytime i feel low about myself, i try to remember that it's just a perception issue. My body deserves respect for all the work it does for me everyday, and I'm lucky I have it. Thanks for making that video and not fall into that trend. Being a mom of two girls, I really try to avoid the negativity around food and body image, but it's everywhere, so it's hard!
same here - a lot of my own issues with food stem from seeing my mom struggle. it's so sad because in my eyes she's beautiful and she doesn't always see that.
Agree I have 2 boys … and it’s so profound the negativity. I cook 5 nights a week and have either leftovers or just an easy night of food .. it’s all healthyish veggies, pasta, stir fry etc but there is never a thought process as a ‘healthy meal’ it’s a meal, full stop .. and then once a month or maybe two months we’ll get take out and it’s fun, I am so aware of keeping food ‘normal’ not a thought process as I had anorexia from 12-15 and don’t want my children to suffer from my experience.. it’s important to use your tools of experience..
Crying this hit me too hard 😭 currently on a weight loss journey and food is literally ALL I can think about. I just want to eat healthy and NOT obsess over it, but my relationship with food is so toxic 😢 it was so nice hearing everything you said, especially about feeding your body a little more on the days you need it. I’ve spent so many days either hungry or guilty and I just want to get away from that
same 😭
I obsess with what I eat and it actually is helpful for me my brain is thriving of it
It is relationship with self, not food. Food is the symptom…
@@lindsaywilliams3774that’s actually a great point. Food is used to cope or have comfort at times.
Hello Caroline,
My little sister of 17 struggles with eating disorders. I was wondering if I could give french subtitles to this video, because I feel like you truly understand what she's going through, when I see the way you speak about food, body image and control, how you accept the hard relationship you used to have with yourself.
This would be an honour.
Thank you so so so much for the videos you make for us. For your honesty. And your humour ! 😌
Love ❤️🌿
I am sure u can!
I'm thankful that you addressed this and didn't just take the route of leaning into diet culture. I imagine it's triggering for you to be constantly asked to do a "what I eat in a day" video, and for people to be admiring your look as if it's just about being on a diet, when you've actually worked so hard on your mental health to get here.
It's scary having teenage daughters, and worrying about what they're seeing online, and that , as you say, most of it is lies.
wow, yes. you just articulated something huge. the misconception that your physical appearance has any correlation to your well being. there is so much more going on than one's weight. and the internal changes are the one's ive struggled most with, but also the ones im most proud of. thank you for this kind comment
@@Caroline_Winklero
Thank you for this display of empathy. ❤
Would love to hear how you learned to love exercise! For me it was learning that I don't have to kill myself every workout and finding outdoor exercises I actually like to do.
oh man so many opinions. stay tuned for next week ; )
Me too, I want to love exercise but……
Thank you for being honest. As someone who has ED and trying to eat intuitively, I find all of other videos about eating quite triggering. It makes me feel guilty that I don’t think about EVERY meal and don’t plan everything. So thank you for being you.
I'm 52 and still dont plan meals in advance. I have a vague idea what I want,but if I get to a meal time and dont really fancy it I have something else. Food should be flexible otherwise it becomes boring.
@@pheart2381 i became a cook through starting from the bottom pls cooking really is so much effort, haha i spend 1-2 cooking everyday
I recently came to the realization that I don’t obsess over food anymore, I don’t even know when it changed. I struggled with an ED for 10 years and somehow in the last few I finally overcame it. When you said “never thought I’d ever say that” about not obsessing over food. I feel that in my soul. You’re amazing. ❤
What is ED?
@@lanabos ED is short for eating disorder :)
@@itzsilver101 OH. I thought of the other ED 😅
As one of the only 3 or 4 guys to respond in the more than 150 comments, one thing I noticed is how much you are touching the lives of all these ladies. You certainly have an audience, but it saddens me at the struggles expressed. Caroline, you most certainly deserve the title of "influencer" in the most positive way. I found your channel via the organizing video and keep coming back for your wit and whimsy, doesn't matter the topic. This one seems to have touched a lot of folks. Keep up the good work. Also, kudos to your editor. They almost always get a chuckle from me with their added content and commentary.
I think she does her own editing! So the sass is self-depreciating 😂
One of the kindest and most thoughtful comments I’ve received, Ken. Thank you for taking the time to share this with me, I’m so glad that’s how the videos feel to you, it’s definitely the goal❤️
I did edit this video myself! I do also sometimes work with an editor on other videos and she’s great at adding in sass as well❤️thanks for the love
This whole "no-cooking" thing actually helped me a lot. I hate cooking and struggle so much with the pressure of cooking every freaking day. I also love uncooked/cold food, so I don't feel like really needing cooked food every day. But I honestly tell myself every day that I NEED to cook and you opened my eyes that I actually don't. Thank you so much for this!
I come from a family where most of the women love to cook, including me. YOU don’t have to love it or even like it!!! 😅 It’s not 1803 any longer and there are lots of ways to feed yourself and your family that don’t require you to be tied to the the kitchen. I think it’s become another way that society and women use to judge each other. Anyone who thinks less of you for not liking or wanting to cook is revealing more about themselves than about you! I know it’s hard when you’re getting hit with it constantly but I promise it’s ok! Also, as much as I like to cook, I don’t want to do it daily and am eating my leftover takeout lunch as we speak. 😊
omg please i still have yet to eat anything more delicious than a sandwich. as long as your enjoying the food and getting enough nutrients and it works for your budget / logistics, just do what works for you
I eat bread and butter sooooooo often haha
@@ellingtongriffin5521 , try open face saltines and butter with a coke! Yum
Love all those comments!! This makes me so much more excited about not cooking tomorrow 😂💚
"The key, is eating a way that I would be happy to eat my whole life" that is so powerful❤, thank you for sharing and thank you for making this video!!!
Cream in coffee is one of life's joys.
Just woke up and saw the Queen has posted. Honestly love starting my Saturdays off with your videos. I appreciate the realness and genuineness you emote. Especially in a social media world we live in, where everything is so fake and planned. You are such a breath of fresh air. Hope you have an amazing day Caroline. ❤️
Same, couldn’t have put this better!
💗😔appreciate this friend
A boyfriend put fat-free "cream" in my coffee. I dumped him. You are the type of hero humanity ACTUALLY needs right now.
You were doing god's work by dumping him. Blessings to you 💅
Yes to this. Damn right! 💛
The best part of this video was how worked up she got over the black coffee and not wanting to cook!
Good Lord. What was he thinking? Oh wait. He wasnt. Good dump.
Here I am, adding JUST BUTTER in my coffee😅
even the distinction between healthy and "unhealthy" food, that moralizing of food, is something ive been unlearning for some time. thank you for such a thoughtful video on a subject most of us struggle with. i needed to hear all of this today 💕
Why did u put quotation on unhealthy, just asking
@@unknown_8588 good point, healthy should be in quotations, too. "healthy" and "unhealthy" -- hope this helps 💜
@@elie.bb15I think this is a really important point. I’ve never had a strong notion of healthy and unhealthy food and I think that has served me well. I’ve always eaten a wide range of foods and I think that’s the only important thing for food quality. As long as you don’t eat the same thing continually you’re going to be hard pressed to run into any deficiency in any nutrient.
As someone who cooks a lot, I want to thank you for some non-cooking tips. I have never learned this, and I find it exciting to think that I could introduce some of these items into my meals to lighten up the burden of thinking I always have to cook if I want to eat fresh, healthy meals. Great tips here.
For the record, I ABSOLUTELY want your theory on olives because I had EXACTLY the same experience. I hated them for most of my life, but then randomly tried them every now and then and suddenly one day I was like "YES PLEASE" and I've never looked back.
Olives are bitter, people become less sensitive to bitterness as they age. That's also why kids hated brussels before 80s-90s when someone made a less bitter version - adults don't really feel it the same way, so they could eat it fine. So, kids being picky eaters are sometimes just trying to protect themselves from poison :D
I was the same way with cauliflower, I've never eaten it at all. All of sudden, I'm craving it like crazy
always loved olives but i am this way with "palmito" which is a very common in my country and i hated as a child but now i want to eat with everything
I feel like most people hate olives when they’re younger and then just slowly develop a liking for them. Tastebuds constantly adapt and our personal taste changes through years and different diets.
As a retired teacher who noted serious changes in teenagers eating patterns while I did the dreaded “lunch duty” at both middle and high school levels….thank you for saying all of this. Young people will sit on their phones consuming SOCIAL MEDIA instead of eating nutrition during lunch. Talk about a JUNK diet full of lies and falsehoods. It’s like there is a social shame to actual eating for many of them which is so unhealthy! Your compassion and truth is what makes you different from the vapid vloggers. ❤
I work as a monitor in the cafeteria and playground. I’ve noticed middle school girls, and boys too, skipping lunch. I’ve tried to talk to them, that it isn’t going to work. They won’t admit that they are dieting and state that the food is gross. I always say then eat the fruits and veggies. Never works though.
@@sherryg1838 the food IS gross, but who wants to be seen being different? We need life coaching classes starting in kindergarten, in order train kids on healthy living.
I used to skip school lunch because it was gross.. used to just eat before and after school.. it actually is gross. Maybe some of those kids are telling the truth
@@angelicachavez6118 I always brought my own. This was more a commentary on what teens see online as their “diet” of unhealthy images.
@@angelicachavez6118 That could be true. However, they could bring their own. And as I stated before, I encourage them to eat the raw fruits and veggies. Also, skipping lunch will make them hungrier when they get home and more susceptible to overeating.
This was refreshing, thank you. I had an ED that was very ‘subtle’ for a long time, it’s a long journey trying to free up the mental energy.
I honestly absolutely laughed so hard about your tangent regarding the coffee. I take my coffee with loads of cream and sugar and I adore drinking it that way, it it's part of my breakfast, I'm a healthy weight, my blood pressure is fine, I am aware it's a "sweet", but I love it, it's delicious, but people have so many words about it wow
You are carving a niche for this channel that is entertaining and at the same time going to save someone's life. I'm not sure how you are doing it other than by being your goofy and honest self. Thank you for going in this direction. I love watching your videos because it's like having a one-sided conversation with a close friend.
Thank you so much for posting this. I am a year into recovery from first being hospitalized from my eating disorder and although I am worlds apart from where I was, some days I still have my low points. Today is one of them, and right after crying because I couldn’t stomach to eat enough, your video showed up and inspired me to keep trying. You may not always realize it, because you’re just being yourself, but you truly make such a positive impact ❤️
Keep up the great work! ♥
Wishing you the best moving forward, you’re doing amazing already ❤️
@@m0zarts-animation thank you ❤️
@@fairlyenjoyable doing better than yesterday 😊
Wish you nothing but success on your journey @Matthew
OMG, the coffee rant made me LAUGH. Like seriously, drink your coffee how you like it and leave me and my coffee alone!
I totally respect you putting this out there. I think that for someone who is recovering from an ED, putting a spotlight on their eating is just likely to make them spiral. I know that, for me, I used to binge and restrict. I spent years learning to listen to my body, and when I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes with my last pregnancy I cried through all of my appointments about it because it was making me focus way too much on my food and I could feel my brain starting to want to restrict. Thank goodness I was diagnosed late and only had to deal with it for about 6 weeks, but it was so hard to see how much of an affect that sort of thing still had over me.
“Cucumbers are watery and slippery - I just don’t trust the.” So funny - I love them in water too! You have such a healthy attitude and your humor is the best!!
I just fell in love with you again! I am in recovery from eating disorder, years. Part of my recovery is exactly what you are talking about. Sending you so much love.
ah man i wish i could hug you. one of the hardest parts for me was the isolation, let yourself be with and close to the people who love you. proud of you
👋👋👋 I applaud you for being honest. I am 65 yrs old. I spent my youth coitizing my appearance. I wasted so much time and energy focusing on what I though was wrong with my body and looks. At 65 I look at pictures of my younger self and what I see now is a beautiful young girl. I can not believe I was not happy with how I looked, I was gorgeous!! What we don't realize when we are young is that YOUTH itself is beautiful. Don't wait till you are in your 60"s to see the beauty that you truly are.
Great comment! I am only 29 but I look back at pictures of when I was 19 and even 22 when I thought my face was too chubby or that I was not cute, and I think wow what a beautiful young lady. At the time though, I felt so much anxiety about not looking good enough! So glad to hear your perspective
Thank you for sharing your beautiful perspective! I’m a mom of 3, 35 years old, and not gonna lie freaking out a little about how I’m aging. I long to look 25 again 😅 But the truth is I can remember being self conscious about parts of my face/body as early as middle school. I know I’m gonna look back 15 years from now and realize how beautiful I am NOW. Thank you!🙏🏻
As a person who has several severe chronic illnesses with the newest diagnosis being cfsme (symptoms that I first noticed started in November '22 and dramatically worsened in April '23- coincidentally both happening after having surgery and resulting CIDP exacerbations), the advice from my main doctors (neurologist, cardiologist and endocrinologist) has been to eat when I'm hungry and sleep when I'm tired and don't worry about the time of day that these things occur at. The thing that I have to focus on more right now is learning how to pace myself energy wise (physically, emotionally and general use of brain power) to avoid my body crashing and end up with a sore throat, needing even more sleep and a worsened vertical intolerance. The biggest change I've made has been to order my groceries for delivery from Walmart.
As I've always been on the heavier side weight wise, the path of ignoring the time of day for when I sleep and when I eat has been huge for me and as a result I've been able to get back under 200lbs to my first mini goal of 195lbs. Im currently working on my goal of getting to (and staying under) 190lbs. My ultimate goal weight is to get under 150lbs even though with how I believe that weight loss should be a very slow and steady pace (ideally no more than 2lbs a month),it's going to take quite awhile to get to my ultimate goal but as I see it, I didn't gain the weight I did in a short time so it shouldn't come off in a short time.
I was really big after my 2nd child, got to the point where I was heavier than pregnancy. I decided to make a few changes, not a lot, it took me almost 10 years and I've lost 125 lbs. Sometimes I'd be stuck on a particular weight for months, then eventually I'd start dropping again very slowly.. hang in there, you can do it. I'm only 5'3" so it was a lot for me. ☮💜🕉
Isn't it crazy how harshly we critique ourselves?! And for what.. From an outsider looking in I think that you are extremely intelligent, you're funny, thoughtful, charismatic and beautiful! I really love your take on this trend.
Putting dates in the fridge/freezer is the most underrated treat that has ever existed! I NEVER have them in a cupboard, because they turn into CARAMEL in the FRIDGE.
дякую!
I'm not a huge fan of dates but maybe I'll try them like this!
Ooooh! I'm going to have to try that! 😋
As a man who drinks black coffee, I say drink coffee however you want! My wife loves lattes and I always have fun preparing the milk by warming and using one of those hand frothers for her. People who try to get other people to drink black coffee are just closed minded and can’t stand seeing how other people can enjoy things
Funny how my boyfriend tried to make my drink my coffee black too. He's a pretty open minded guy and once I told him I really preferred my cream with it, he never tried to convince me again, thankfully.
I only drink black coffee at home because it's the flavours (I always add cinnamon in the coffee grounds) I like and I like bitter flavours. Even so, there are days I like milk in my coffee. When I buy coffee in a coffee shop I always need milk and even sugar because it tastes like crap. Everyone is picky about how they like food and drinks and that is fine.
What's funny is the fact that almost all of the comments here are ladies and one of the only guys had to mention the black coffee issue. 😆 I, too, drink my coffee black most of the time. My wife will only drink heavy creamer ladened instant coffee. [shudder] So, what I end up doing to brewing a pot, drinking half of a pot hot. Then put the carafe in the refrigerator. Later, I will drink the rest cold. Yes, I'm weird.
I learned to drink coffee black to reduce the amount of calorie and carb intake. (Diabetics shouldn't drink their carbs.) But, I'll occasionally take it with heavy cream and Stevia. It is really only when the urge hits me.
This is cute
@@KenJones1961 I think I read somewhere that men are generally more tolerant of bitter tastes. That's why more men than women love beer too.
"They’re just watery & slippery, and you can't trust them." (cucumbers) 😂😅
“Cucumbers…you can’t trust em” Truer words Caroline 😳
The ending of this video made me cry. You're doing something really beautiful on the internet, Caroline. 🌟💞
So true 😊
I literally describe this channel as being culturally important to anyone who will listen. I don't know how else to describe it.
You go girl. I found your channel because of the YT algorithm and interior design. I stayed for the snark and honesty. I have a 19-year-old son who has been working through an eating disorder for a couple of years now. I appreciate your thoughtful honesty about food and mental health. I enjoyed last week's(?) video just didn't say anything publicly. More "influencers" need to be as thoughtful as you.
Truly you are my favorite Saturday watch.
This is SUCH a nice video.
I don't have eating disorders myself. I've just now settled on a diet suggested by my nutricionist, and it feels really good. Simply because it is EASIER for me to eat the same stuff every day. I work from 8am to 6pm and the amount of energy I had to put in planning and preparing food was absolutely exhausting. So not having to spend that energy in that way makes me feels so much better.
I am actually now spending that energy in exercises, and it has been so incredbly long since I hadn't done any exercises at all.
Edit: plus, I don't cook anymore AT ALL, it feels like freedom hahahahah I just have lunch at work and two boiled eggs for dinner. It's amazing.
Just realized I’ve been going down a dangerous rabbit hole of food related content. So so glad I clicked on your video, your attitude feels refreshing, reasonable, and safe to me. You almost remind me of a responsible older sister!
Definitely gonna be less harsh on myself-I love food and I know how to eat balanced and that’s great!
Thank you!!!
Ugh, THANK YOU! I cannot yet speak too openly about all the food crap and my battles but to say I appreciate you doing this video is a huge understatement. I'm crying as I write this.. just thank you 😭🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
ah bb. it sounds like your learning to take care of yourself and making changes. that is literally everything. it is huge
@@Caroline_Winkler ❤️
"I don't cook. Leave me alone!" I'm laughing so hard I'm scaring the cat. Yes. Cooking can eat you if you let it. The virtue signaling ingredients. The posh pans. The stove with the chrome muffler and built-in massage chair. Meanwhile the world is turning like a maniac and you're still testing leftover containers. Thank you for being straightforward while caring enough about all of us that you're thoughtful how you tell it.
“The stove with the chrome muffler and built-in massage chair.” 😂🤣😂 Hilarious because it feels so true!
Courageous. Every time someone shares their story, it builds more space for us all to be authentic. Thank you, CW!
I absolutely love and appreciate this. Thank you for your candidness and transparency and compassion, it comes thru so genuinely. You’re doin good stuff 💛
This is THE first time, as a literal 20yo, that it’s ever been made known to me that people don’t actually eat like that everyday (salad, some granola, and avocado toast etc.) I thought there was something wrong with me because I was doing my best to eat healthily but I can never get to the caliber they do I’m just not full enough and this video was so needed like I feel really seen rn 😭 thank you for being so realistic thank you thank you I feel so happy and seen rn
I heard a very good comment form a nutritionist in a radio. He said something like "we should try to eat better. Sometimes we do and some other day we don't and that's ok, it is part of being healthy. If our diet is perfect and we succeed in it every day it's called eating disorder (orthorexia)"
I think you tackled the subject beautifully and I wholeheartedly agree on semi-homemade being good enough. I suffer from chronic depression and when it gets really bad, I even rely on pre-made salads and freezer foods like pizza and lasagna to survive. The intrusive thoughts of fearing the fat in all those frozen pizzas still pop up, but in these moments, eating something is still better than nothing. And I try to be kind to myself.
Ditto! I cook maybe once a week, I'd never judge someone for precooked or "easy" meals ❤️
Same, if it's a choice between eat something convenient and have some energy to get through the day or freak about 'clean' eating to the point where you don't eat anything and then you don't have the strength to crawl out of your feelings, I pick the first one every time. I can't look after myself if I got no battery power. ❤️
just remember
you're freaking legend
because nothing is more scary,
than battling with your own mind
every single day
i wish you all the power you need for your journey
Switch to a carnivore diet; you'll learn to love fat and probably lose the depression. Just sayin'
Loved this, Caroline! Your honesty and respect for what a hard topic this is was refreshing.
I really needed this today. Wow. Very interesting and also inspirational, yet so simple. Thanks, Caroline! ♥️
This should go viral…more young people need to hear and see the truth about this subject! Thank you for being so brave, wise, honest and do it all in a lighthearted, non judgmental way!
This was the critique of “what I eat in a day” we all needed 🧡 thanks for being vulnerable and sharing your freedom with us
In recovery rn and this just opened my eyes cause I didnt even realize I eat literally the same like 5 foods over and over in rotation lol...gonna try to switch things up now!! Thank u for this video girl. Funny, sweet, and informative.
Really loved this video ❤ Thank you for sharing your truth with us 🌼🌸
“I’m just rambling...” she says, intelligently, thoughtfully, nuanced and with wisdom 😂
Caroline, THANK YOU. I will never, ever forget the first meal I ate without obsessively thinking about calories, fat content, how much or little it was, what I ate before, etc. I was 29 and it was scrambled eggs, salad WITH AS MUCH DRESSING AS I THOUGHT LOOKED YUMMY, & wheat toast WITH butter. I sat there at the table after I ate it and was like, well THAT was weird. I just ate food for nutrition, cos I was hungry, and for the joy of eating. It took YEARS to be able to experience that. Healing from the soul-crushing thinking that drives ED is a strange ol journey. Your telling YOUR story brought a lil spark of joy and gratitude for my own path, friends who have/are healing and YOUR journey. Appreciate you so much!
Thank you for this honest video! I really appreciate that you shared your story. 😊
Love your honesty, and how simple you explain healthy eating!
The tiny “Ow” when she “gracefully” landed on the couch took me out.
Love you so much, Caroline, don’t ever change! 💜
I always love watching you grow. Super enjoy your vids. Thank you for taking the time to create it.
This was a really well done and extremely relatable video. Thanks for your great content and wit!
I deeply appreciate this video. I am recovered from bulimia and feel really good about trusting my body and eating intuitively. I go into the grocery store, stare at the produce section and say: OK body, talk to me, talk to me! I've learned to trust and listen to my body so much that as a vegan I decided to just buy eggs because my body was asking for them for months. Sending love to all the folks out there working on this - you are on the right path :)
I love this comment so much, not because I can relate but because the way you took a snapshot/vignette of your experience that makes it a little easier to understand what recovery looks like for some people. Praying for your progress, health, and success!
@@jasmineeve882no.
@@jasmineeve882 No. Are you aware that you told someone recovering from an EATING DISORDER (and others in recovery reading this comment of yours) 'hey well done with your recovery, but don't eat the eggs'? Do you know how hard it is to learn to listen to your body again after an ED, and how unhelpful and unsupportive it is to then be told to just ignore your body? To everyone reading this who's in recovery: DO listen to your body! Your body loves you and indeed talks to you, and it's incredibly smart and genius in exactly letting you know what it needs. Recovery, full, courageous recovery, is so worth it! It gives you back a quality of life you never knew existed! Honor yourself, your life, and your happiness by honoring all the information your body gives you! Emotions, feelings, cravings, hunger, fullness, all communications of your body! You can do this! ♡
@@jasmineeve882 nope, don’t you dare telling someone and especially someone with an eating disorder what they should do. Please just try to appreciate what they already do for the planet and animals, it’s their own business what they eat.
hey congrats!!!!
Your honesty and respectfulness towards this topic is so refreshing. It's not often that I can watch a video of someone with "healthy" eating habits and not feel jealous/bad about my own habits. Thank you. Also I died when you yelled at us to leave you alone for having cream in your coffee and not cooking- couldn't agree more!
Amen. Cream is proof that God loves us.
Really nice job! I am proud of the work you did in the video! Love and respect 😊
I can tell this video wasnt easy but I think if you look back on it in a year, you’ll be so proud you made it ❤ it definitely reminded me to be kind to myself and stop pressuring myself to operate a certain way or try to be someone I am not
First, OMG YES ON THE COFFEE THING I’M NOT TRYING TO MAKE YOU DRINK CREAM LET US LIVE!! Second, thanks for being so thoughtful and open with your experiences. I haven’t had an eating disorder but have a similarly difficult relationship with self acceptance and depression, really enjoyed your thoughts about introducing diversity and fun. I’ve been taking extremely small steps in that direction already lol and this is good encouragement
My now husband asked why I had to have cream in my coffee when we were starting to spend mornings together. I said "cuz it's good. Shut up & enjoy your hot bitter water" Now 14 years later he drinks his w/ cream too & no, milk will not do in pinch- he's going to the store. Maybe the must be black coffee thing is another branch of the toxic masc tree?
I'm a total coffee snob, with all the gear at home. I don't ever try to get people into the stuff I like. Coffee is 100% about joy in life and I will never take away the joy of someone's preferred caffeine intake. Plus, barista championships actually include milky beverage rounds so how do black coffee snobs explain that?
@@dainty_af I've always said I'll give up sugar in my coffee before I give up the cream. I also, will go to the store and get cream because I'm not drinking it with milk. Gross. 😂
@@dainty_af Actually woman are more prone to get osteoporosis later in lafe, so I wouldn't be suprised if we're naturally attracted more towards to calcium rich products like dairy (latte is some source of calcium because it have milk, while black coffe won't have any).
The part where you talk about no longer fixating on food is so similar to my experience with disordered eating. I used to think "I can't eat bread because I'll just eat the whole loaf in one sitting". When I decided to allow myself to eat bread again I went from eating 4 bagels in a sitting, to slooowwwwly slowly over time being able to eat 1 and not crave that cycle of binging and self-hatred. I'm not "fixed" but I'm doing way better.
This is amazing I love how you speak up for yourself
As someone who has also had this struggle. This video is so validating. Thank you.
Truly a “grocery haul” is way more helpful to me than just preparing a few meals on camera. This was awesome and makes me want to go the the grocery store. It was the first time I wanted to eat a salad 😅
Those small bags of several crunchy veg already prepared are really great. Kroger's have them under the Simple Truth brand, I think, called salad starters. Well, they are the start and end for some of us....
I like to get 5oz containers of prewashed greens also. Heck, I get prewashed sliced mushrooms if I can find them. Anything to avoid putting any obstacle between food and mouth. People are often horrified to hear me admit that.
I had anorexia for five years (age 11-16) and really respect your honesty. My mother is super judgmental about women’s bodies, clothing, appetites and appearance, so SOME food conversations are a massive trigger for my explosive rage😬. I now see a dietitian who specialises in intuitive eating, and i’m pretty darn chunky! Best to you❤️🌻
We love your chunkyness :*
This was SUCH a great video. I appreciate you honestly sharing!
When you said “I’m tired of men trying to make me drink black coffee” I felt that in my soul 🥲 like why is this such a common thing
The number of times I said "ayy-men" is unreal. The hard work and thoughtfulness you invested into straddling the fine line between responsibility and authenticity will pay off tenfold, Caroline. This video is dietitian endorsed
This means so much from me, esp dietician endorsed. My mom was a nutritionist so I hope I’ve absorbed a lot of her lessons. Even though it’s taken me many years to implement. Thank you for this ❤️
@@Caroline_Winkler
My attention span is too weird for me to watch most youtube videos all the way through most of the time, but I sat and watched your whole video, and laughed, and got tears in my eyes, and appreciated how thoughtful you are about the content you make. It was a very generous thing to share your unique experience and perspective.
Well said, and I agree with you, completely! 🙌
Love this video, thanks for being so honest!
I could totally relate to your message here. Very helpful to hear. I am also recovering from extreme restriction and over exercising and this was just such a helpful and validating reminder that I'm on the right track. ❤
Your attention to authenticity continues to astound me. Seriously, thank you for not just doing a 'what i eat in a day' video.. I feel like those are so IRRESPONSIBLE for the exact reasons you mentioned, and too many impressionable people watch those and then get obsessive with food in the most unhealthy way. Also thanks for sharing your truths. mega props. 🥰🥰
PS that yogurt bowl LIAR thumbnail is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
thank you for being honest and authentic. :) even if I don't comment much, I can often relate to you both on UA-cam and in your podcast episodes. Thank you so much for being you.

Caroline!! Always here, killing it with the content. I laughed so hard at the part with the coffee.. "why? because it tastes less good?!" Hahaha! I love you! Would love to know about your workouts! ❤️
If you've never tried dates with nut butter, I highly recommend it. My favorite is peanut butter but almond butter is pretty good too. I get not wanting candy first thing in the morning but if you feel like having it as a snack, topping the nut butter stuffed dates with melted chocolate and letting them chill before you eat them is delicious!
Use peanuts or almonds and it's almost like a Snickers
This is brilliant
Omg yes one of my favourite snacks too!!! ❤
I used to stick a small Brazil nut into a pitted date and then roll it in shredded unsweetened coconut. They keep in the fridge for a while.... I still keep both dates and Brazil nuts on hand but keep forgetting the coconut.
Thank you! Very much appreciated the honesty in this video!
Beautiful message
