    My mother went through the same thing. I think that after you lose a lot of weight you are just more conscious about your body. You pay attention to it way more and start putting pressure on yourself to keep it off. Hope you get through that bump soon 🤍

    Yes, girl it’s hard with keeping up with losing weight I lost 60 pounds before I got married and gained it right back after I had a baby but it just takes time it’s not a quick fix in order to keep it off it takes time that’s what I am learning I even thought about getting on ozempic

      If you’re struggling with hormones ozempic/semaglutide can be the “key” that unlocks your weight loss. I did everythinggg Keto vegan everything. Semaglutide along side the the healthy habits is the only thing that allowed my body to release the weight and heal inflammation. Do lots of research first and change your habits.

  • @rubi89ify

    I know exactly what you mean. It’s like a mental responsibility we take on. It’s like people are keeping track of your journey, which adds a lot of pressure
    I used to feel the same way about dating people from social media and I still agree. But after my friend went on a date with a guy she didn’t know was a convicted rapist, Now I’m into doing my research beforehand 😩

    Wow Queen I appreciate and respect your honesty. Put you first always. Sometimes we all forget to ask if what we’re requesting is mentally, emotionally, or just overall overwhelming. You deserve time to yourself and to not take any requests at all.
    I’ve been subscribed to you since before the ivy park try on haul. And honestly you being a plus size beauty and fashion forward women of color is what brought me to your channel. I always struggled with fashion and stepping out of my shell. However, seeing you put things together so confidently making it look easy helped me out a lot. I naturally lost over 100lbs around the time you did which is why I totally understand the phases of hitting a plateau and suffering from body dysmorphia. I completely understand where you’re coming from and what you mean. I just wanted to take the time out to show my appreciation for you being so transparent with us always. HOWEVER put what Amina wants first and do what’s best for you! Take care of yourself always queen! Any post/ upload I’m tuned in regardless the topic. All of your content is a must see.
    Thank you for everything! 🥹🫶🏼

    From one woman to another weight loss is a life long battle. I have also struggled with my weight my entire life but I did have body issues but mild nothing too severe. I’m at a time in my life that for me rather than looking good I’m just focusing on being healthy and being around for my kids. It’s all about perspective and your reasoning. Do you mamita, you are doing good.

    I lost 60 pounds in 2021 and I suffered severe depression for over a year after.I didn’t gain the weight back all the way, but I gained like 10 pounds. I’m just now coming out of the depression and getting back to my journey. I literally would have no energy. I wouldn’t get out of bed. I didn’t want to work didn’t post on social medias didn’t take pictures. Just my mind was always erratic but now I see a little light at the end of my tunnel. I’ve created a new vision of myself, and I’m taking it literally one day at a time implementing all that I have learned throughout this process, I just want to say this is normal, and it’s not talked about enough when people lose a significant amount of weight how you can be even more depressed than you were with the weight and you’re not alone.

I feel for u so much…… I remember getting so skinny (always wanted to be since an adolescent) at the demise of my abusive relationship… and all my loved ones Kept telling me how good I Looked n asking for tips…. N gosh that put so much pressure on me that was def self inflicted. Like how do I explain I look ‘this good’ from abuse nd depression 🫠…. lol u don’t… I just smiled and internalize my shame for yrs… it was so weird… so I’m just sharing to say I FEEL U BABES about the pressure, created by self. I didn’t regain myself n confidence until I started taking control of how people perceived me n my weight loss.

    May I make a suggestion? I saw your first original video and as someone who’s lived an intermittent fasting lifestyle for over three years I’ve gone up and down on my way are used to be a size 26 I was down to about a size 12/14 after losing over 100 pounds and then I have some thyroid issues and I’m back up to about 16/18. I’m more of an 18 on the top but I want to get back down and I know what bad habits I have right now but I need to change and I watched your original video thinking that’s a hard lifestyle. So maybe learning how to just do a balance lifestyle with just a little bit of exercise, a walk or a jog or whatever a few times a week maybe using a Fitness watch getting out a certain amount of stops something like that and then maybe just where you’re eating low-carb three times a week and see how that does for you and then make a video on balance. Yes, your initial weight loss was great. That was not a lifestyle but that helps you lose the weight but you need it to lose and I have seen people do keto and I will be honest with you. I have never seen one person stay on it it was too extreme for them. As someone who has been to weight loss, doctors and I did not take any medication‘s who has had nutritionist who has had personal trainers. I have learned the art of balance. I do live a intermittent fasting lifestyle. There are some days where I may be. Will go 18 hours there’s some days I go 24 hours I just eat whenever I feel like eating and I do the type of intermittent fasting where I don’t have anything but water or herbal tea and sometimes I’ll have a little bit of lemon with my herbal tea because that does not break my fast or raise my sugar levels or anything like that, so maybe just doing that just be happy and do something that’s balance, and show how you can lose weight by balancing things out. Again like I said, yes, you lost a lot of weight really fast and that was great but that was not a lifestyle that was not going to last and that’s OK and I know that your weight is still down so now is figuring out how do you balance your lifestyle?
