I started the last week of May and I'm proud of my little 8 pound weight loss lol Thank you for the extra motivation. 😊💪

    The day I actually noticed I gained weight I was shocked! It's crazy how you don't notice the gain, but sure do notice when it's hard to lose. Great video.

  • @Ohsnapitzchelle
    @Ohsnapitzchelle 8 років тому +9

    Ah this was so motivating.. Growing up I always struggled with weight but it wasn't bad until jr high I developed a very unhealthy relationship with food either eating too much of it for comfort or being afraid to eat it...after graduating from high school and stopping sports I gained 85 pounds.. Lately I e really been trying to workout and eating good... So far I've found that lap swimming for 40 minutes to an hour is something that I enjoy and so far have stuck with for a couple weeks.. I've thought about giving up cause it's starting to get hard and your video came in at the right time!

    Hi Nitraa
    I am a mom of 4 boys ages 6, 4 and twins who are 13months. I have been a subscriber of yours for a long time and last night you really inspired me. After having my twins I have been in a complete slump and depressed. After having kids your body changes and that is to be expected but having twins was a totally different story. I watched this video last night and you gave me so much motivation and I want to say thank you for that. it's not easy trying to lose weight and eat healthy but I've been inspired. thank you!

    I'm also 4'11 and its superficial refreshing seeing someone my height and weight that I can relate too. Your story sounds so much like mine. It's so good seeing a youtuber who u connects too. I'm so use to seeing the super tiny petite girls or the small busted some waisted big butt girls. Thanks giving your story and showing you work hard not just sip skinny teas! I'm currently trying to get a routine myself to focus on my weight loss journey. Thanks Anitra

I use to be soooo motivated I just got back into the swing of things , I'm going to try that 21 days tho! I literally just read that it takes 21 days to create a habit, so when you said that I was like YES! Lol I got this! You look amazing ! Keep it up! ❤️

    @shacorajohnson6319 8 років тому

    Yes, let's make it a small series!! Videos on your workout routine, meals, etc. would be great!! So proud of you, as a member of the graduate and gain weight club, you're such an inspiration. I graduated in 2008 as well and was super active throughout with swimming, cheerleading and dance but since then fell in love, got married and gain that "happy weight" which resulted in being fifty pounds heavier. Back in April I started challenging myself to get it together and began taking cardio hip hop classes three times a week and eating fifteen hundred of healthy/nutritional foods. Thank you for giving me the extra push because this week, I started to fall in a slight down spiral and my feelings caused me to eat badly three times this week!!

    Nitra-- thank you for sharing. You have no idea how much of a funk I have been in with my weight loss...I have a trainer and I had no problem showing up to the gym, but my diet was so bad....i didn't understand why I didn't have the brain power to say no to food until you said the words, "I was in love with food"...I'm like, yes, SAME!!!! It explains why I prefer to eat bad after I JUST worked out....I'm gonna make sure I stay motivated by keeping up with you! It's kind of like having a work out buddy!!! You got this girl! 💪🏻

You look great, girl! You're inspiring me to keep going! 😍

    @TheHott3333 8 років тому

    A Lifestyle Change is the key. Exercise, healthy food choices, drinking water and proper rest. I'm 5'9 with legs for miles so weight gain didn't look bad on my body BUT it felt uncomfortable on my body .... so I made the changes --- stopped eating out, stopped eating late, consistent exercise and healthier food choices and it made a huge difference just in time for my class reunion. You are a Constant Inspiration. Looking Beautiful as always.

    This video was PERFECT! I haven't been consistent with my work outs and eating healthier meals, so I need to get it together! I had a friend helping me with my work outs, so we set a goal for me to lose about 10 lbs in 2 1/2 weeks. I was doing great like the first week but then I slowly started to drift back into old habits, so needless to say I didn't meet my goal. And what's worse I actually ended up gaining 2 extra pounds 😩. After watching this video I realized that I haven't been praying enough for this weight loss and am now determined to get right and stay on track! Thanks for sharing, Nitra! You look great by the way! Congrats!

My husband and I are TTC, and I didn't find out about the vitamin D and Iron deficiencies until I got a scan that revealed multiple tiny cysts on my ovaries. It's just a more in-depth panel you need drawn to find out. Great job, great vid!

    You look AMAZING girl. You inspired me to get my butt back in shape and since March I am down 19lbs. Definitely not easy nor fast but I just love how more energized I am and mentally feel better about myself and my life. I am nowhere near where I want to be but I know I am definitely nowhere where I used to be. So thank you love.

    This was so helpful. I'm 5'6 and 175lbs, this is the heaviest I have ever been. I ran track in high school and trained intensely all year round and when I got to college I didn't do anything physical. Im working hard now to lose the weight because I'm so uncomfortable with my weight gain . Your video was truly helpful, I'm trying to get to my goal weight of 135 and maintain it. Please keep the tips coming!!!!

    Thank you for this video! I started a weightloss journey in 2013/2014 but I ended up gaining all of my weight back b/c I went into a depression after I lost my mom. I am starting back in August and I am so happy! This video gave me more motivation.

    I wanted to say thank you! You couldn't have put this video up any other timing. This really motivated me out of a depression stage at least so I thought. I made an appointment and glad I did. Doctor found a lump on my thyroid. So once we get that in control I'll be on my weight loss journey once again.

  • @positivelyme5605
    @positivelyme5605 8 років тому

    I understand all too well. I've been struggling since high school with my weight. I graduated at 185lbs then I got pregnant and surprisingly lost weight and went down to a healthy size for my body despite the doctors trying everything to keep my weight up. yes my daughter was born healthy. then a few years ago I realized that I had let myself really go. I had got to my heaviest of 265 😱. that scared the crap out of me because I'm a single mom and I want to be around. but slowly I battling and I am down to 223. so congrats girl . I wish you much success on your weight loss journey and getting healthy.

  • @nranderson778

    My coworkers ask me all the time "do you eat anything that doesn't come out of those meal prep containers??" And "dang you're always lugging that gallon of water around" and I'm like yup! Because I had hip surgery the first week of June and physically can't work out right now so I have to be really conscious about what I'm eating. You gotta want it for yourself. No one can want it for u! Go Nitra! I'm so proud of u!!

  • @danielledefreitas2021
    @danielledefreitas2021 8 років тому

    I swear our stories are so similar. I was a cheerleader all throughout high school and on the dance team all of college. I was always 125lbs which I didn't like because for me I was too skinny I always wanted to gain a few pounds. Post undergrad I got a job in commercial real estate so on a day to day I'm not as active anymore. I weigh 157 now. And all I want in life is to be 135 flat and maintain that weight. Me and my boyfriend work out mon-thur, but like you said in the beginning I still think I can eat what I want. Although I haven't gained any additional weight im not losing any either. I need to focus on my calorie intake and make smarter food choices because going to the gym is only half the battle. Thanks Nitraa!

  • @delindawilliams3935
    @delindawilliams3935 8 років тому

    Thanks for the motivation. I'm on the journey for some years now,since 09. I had lost almost 70 pounds in a year by aquatic aerobics, then my health had gotten worst and I couldn't exercise,I regained 20 pounds,then I was able to do very little exercise. Now I'm giving it a good fight to reach my goal.
    On your anniversary video I could tell you were loosing the weight.
    You look great,keep it up,you're doing good.
    God bless!

    I know you love your fitness watch but I have the Fitbit Blaze and absolutely love it! It tracks everything from calories, to steps, sleep, weight goals, etc. They also have an app that will automatically sync everything from the watch. You can even input the amount of water and food you eat throughout the day to further track your calorie count. A little pricey but well worth it!

  • @rissateambreezy
    @rissateambreezy 8 років тому

    Thanks for your update! It is really motivating :) I gained about 20 lbs since being in college and I also noticed I was having signs of depression. I finally realized it was because of my weight. 20 lbs may not seem like a lot but when your on the shorter side it definitely shows! Its great to hear a story similar to my own so now I know for a fact I can do this. So far I've changed my diet completely & drink ONLY water. I try to some working out but not as much as I should. I was definitely a foodie smh but I've been staying away from bread and pastas as much as I can. Good luck with the rest of your journey

    Nittra B. Congrats on your weightloss, journey. I'm on a journey aswell. I love the video. Bur what I love the most about your video, is when you said you prayed, and prayed alot. That God would help you through, your workouts. That's so special to me, because God loves us so much, that he will help us with the simplest things that we struggle with, LIKE WEIGHTLOSS. But ppl today, fail to realize, that he is real. And he will help us if we just ask for his help. Because that's the kind of AWESOME GOD HE IS!!!!! And just the fact that you reference God on your channel, gave you extra BROWIE POINTS WITH ME. You don't find to many BEAUTY GURUS DOING THAT.....Kudos to you!!!!! I wish you continued success on your lifestyle change. Stay encouraged...and remember keep acknowledging...the CREATOR OF ALL THINGS...
