I so agree about the weight issue. A woman I went to high school with posted a picture on Facebook and she was very thin in the picture. I couldn't believe all the comments about her weight and how great she looked. About six months later she passed away from cancer. Here she was battling for her life and she wanted to keep her health private and all these people were focused on her weight not realizing she was near the end of her life. I felt so bad for her.
Someone told me when I was younger to enjoy where you are, when you are. At some point, you will look back and realize how amazing you have always been and didn't appreciate.
I am 74 and have had a lifetime of obesity. 4 years ago I put myself on a very healthy plan beginning at 250 pounds and now maintain a healthy range of 140 - 150 pounds consistently. This has improved my health 100%. Living happy and healthy.
Iam 350 lbs and absolutely not ashamed to say that to you. Iam big and beautiful. My whole body is like jello if I jump, but not unhappy. It is all about confidence, and I I project myself to others. If someone says god your fat I just say wow you have good eye sight lol
I am an old woman now and don't really care what I weigh because I have so many medical d/os that cause huge weight fluctuations. All I can say is that really appreciate your body NOW, don't wait! Later you will realize that at 18 you had the best body you will ever have. Also. your Mom sounds very wise in regard to weight- thanks for discussing this sensitive topic!
You are so welcome in Oregon anytime you find yourself in the US- seriously. I've been watching your videos since you were nearly too shy to say your name to the camera and now here you are making such a lovely video- in excellent English!
What a wonderful message about body acceptance. I was shamed for my body type most of my life and it has left deep scars. You are so wise and delightful and deserving of love and closeness. Things will look up soon! 🙏🏼🥰🙏🏼
I avoided mirror and scale during the pandemic. I knew I was gaining weight. Plus I have the most intense depression. I started to workout again and try to love my body how it is but it's really difficult.
I spent way too much of my youth standing on a scale and judging myself because of a number. I look back now and think how stupid I was. I’m so glad you took your mom’s advice and learned to love yourself because you are beautiful inside and out❤️
I used to be super against plastic surgery, but honestly I get it. Being so insecure about something that it would just feel so much better to have it done. After having lost a lot of weight, I've gone down 2 band sizes and 4 cup sizes. The sag and excess skin is REALLY bad on my bust. If I had the means I would absolutely get a lift. Would love to not have to wear a bra and not feel super uncomfortable with that part of my body.
I'm single now too and I too miss affection & attention during this pandemic. My parents are elderly and I miss hugging them so much. My son is early 20s & moved back home after university (he was saving for a car) and I hug him everyday. He is so patient with me. I cuddle my sweet dog daily. Also, the weight sensitivity thing never ends for some of us. I've baked more in the last 9 months than in my whole life & gained 10 pounds during pandemic. I'm trying to exercise & eat less but I can't go to gym now. Also, banana bread and brownies are my favorites while reading books or watching TV. You look great so whatever you're doing to stay healthy is working. 🙂
Thanks for sharing all these intimate issues with us. It helps us to get to know you better. Things will get better. Hope you continue to thrive, in spite of the difficulties of the day. Love you shop, and colors.
I Love you even more after those Honest answers! You are wise beyond your years! You are even More Beautiful inside as you are out! So glad I found you! 😍❤️😎🙏
I feel the same Elise about weight! I haven't weighed myself since I was around 18 and I was so unhappy. I measure my weight in happiness and for once in my life, I'm happy! 😊 My mum is constantly on the scales and she gets really obsessed by it which isn't good. When people comment on other people's weight, it's usually to do with an issue within themselves. My mum used to comment on my weight all the time because she was unhappy with herself. Now, she's doing something about her unhappiness and going walking every day and I haven't had a comment since she started doing this! 😂 I've always felt your confidence through the screen and that's really wonderful 😊
Plastic surgery is such an personal thing. If a person has always hated something on their body, and can afford it, why not. Being older, there are changes to my face that I hate, and might look into some improvements someday.
I loved this! Beautiful chat and o think it really helps to share how everyone is dealing with all of this difficult time. Together we can make it through and grow stronger.
Hey Elize, the thing for you to be most proud of is that you own your store at your age! You are doing it for yourself! As a woman I'm soooooo proud of you!
Elise, you'll make it through the lockdown and it will be worth it :) In Melbourne last year we locked down from July to November and for most of it we couldn't leave the house for more than 1 hour or go further than 5km from our house, but now we can go out to dinner, the movies, bars etc! I learned never to feel guilty if I had a bad day - this situation is so crazy and abnormal that something would be wrong if it wasn't hard. A friend said to me that we all have to forgive ourselves a little bit for the last year, and it helped me a lot. Hope it helps you too :)
You are a UA-camr a watch regularly, and I am always very interested in the person behind the camera, so to speak, so I enjoyed this Q&A to get to know you a bit better. I like to hear your thoughts and take on things. Thank you for your honesty!
You are so right about looking at yourself and how to accept yourself in every way and what you don't like you can work on to some extent. I think people should focus on accepting themselves more than trying to be something they are not. If you have curves that doesn't mean you're not beautiful. Society and social media shows us the opposite of accepting yourself and are more focused on what people expect from you. You're beautiful and very honest about who you are I think that's more important as that's what you show as you feel from within. Shine on Elisa!!
Thank you Elise for your words about weight, you are so right about just being comfortable in your own skin without having to weigh yourself all the time ( I haven’t stepped on a set of scales in many, many years as my obsession with my weight led me to have an eating disorder when I was 16 and I promised myself that I wouldn’t weigh myself again!. What you said about someone saying”you look great now you’ve lost weight” is so true I’ve been told that many times in the past and that didn’t help me, it only made me want to lose more weight. As a mother of two I now appreciate my body a lot more and don’t feel the need to constantly put myself down because of it. Keep well, and thank you for posting this video ♥️x
I have and will continue to have non surgical procedures done to my face as long as they do not distort my face. I think whatever a person does, men and women, do it for yourself and no one else.
I don't think that I would ever have plastic surgery but like you, I won't say never. I feel that having so many options to change ourselves is actually a bad thing for us. We end up not being the real us after awhile. I hope that you get more sunshine soon and find that wonderful man that can make your life even happier.
I believe you are the most beautiful person on the inside as well as outside. I am a child of the seventies and you almost nailed that era but the feather earrings and the huge bell bottom jeans. Hang on to your thought processes and yes you are model material. You my dear will work through all of these feelings and troubles you have and become a stronger woman because of that. As far as the dating scene, it is hard to date a very independent woman. He will have to be able to communicate with you and let you have your space. I found my mate after a divorce who gives me my room to breathe and its awhile to find that person. Stay busy and keep being the beautiful you.
I really love this kind of videos of yours, I enjoy hearing your interesting opinions and so 😊 I was cleaning up my studio while watching your video and it was definitely cozy 🥰 Btw, about plastic surgery... I think we humans need to learn to love ourselves just as we are inside and out, BUT if there's something that reeeeaaaallyyyyy annoys you about your appearance, for example what if you had an accident and your face was deformed? Or what if you have natural huge bubbies and it's affecting your spine because of the weight? I think it is absolutely ok to have plastic surgery in cases when you actually need it for your physical or mental health 🤗
Elise don't ever let anybody make you worry about your weight! You're naturally beautiful. A lot of people seem to judge women by their weight and that really, really bothers me. Look at all the young girls and women who develop anorexia and bulimia after being made to feel bad about their weight. Also the plastic surgery thing: I'm so glad you think it unlikely you'll ever have plastic surgery. You don't need it! The good Lord gave you perfect, flawless features. Anyway, have a great day. Your videos are so creative that you inspire me. I suspect many of your fans feel the same way.
I weigh myself everyday, it’s kinda sad… I think that Elise advice is good! Looking at your body and paying attention to how you feel is more important
I agree with you about the weight topic, the weight doesn't define if you are healthy or not. In my case, I've almost always, since i was little, been told that im underweight when i go to the hospital for a general check, because of my height I'm tall and my complexion is thin, so in the scale i always come up as I'm underweight but I'm actually healthy... so yeah i don't rely in weight either to define if i am healthy or not. And about plastic surgeries, personally i would only get something done if its something that i cannot change in any other way than getting surgery and if its seriously affecting my mental health, but not if its something unnecessary or just because other people is telling me to. For example since i was little many people (sadly family members) have made bad comments about my nose saying it's too big blahblah, i felt insecure for a while but now i accepted and i see it as a part of me, i wouldn't feel myself if i change the shape of my nose, so yeah, its ok if you do it because YOU want to change it and not because of other people comments :)
Hi Elise I really enjoyed this vlog Q&A you are brave to answer all those personal questions so honestly x I appreciate your views on beauty, weight and body positively far too much emphasis is on outward looks and tbh being around ppl or watching you tubers who are nice real people like you make these lockdown more bearable x hope you find someone special in the near future they'd be lucky to have you and wishing you success with your business you've achieved so much in a year, that's something to feel proud of x
Your English is as good as your fashion sense......extremely interesting and easy to relate to. I wish I could manage just a few words of Danish so that I could at least give you a cheery greeting. Stay safe and stay well dear friend Best Wishes from England Mary-Jane xx
That is a very healthy way to feel about your body. That is probably why you are trim, because you are not obsessed with your body or how much you weigh. Thank you.
Your view on weight is so healthy, I'm doing my best not to obsess about my weight so much, especially because I don't move as much because of miss rona.
I’m totally right there with you on the need of snuggles and more sunlight! I’ve been googling ways to increase serotonin since that is the hormone that both sunlight and snuggles help your brain release more of. Maybe it’ll be helpful for you too! These alternatives aren’t a replacement, but are here in the meantime. Stay well💗✌️
Great video! And I actually really like the dots you put around your eyes, it definitely works. Regarding plastic surgery, I think the only thing I'm interested in would be a smaller waist. I focus on my weight far, far too much. I hate my size. I've always been overweight, and medication has made me even bigger and I hate it. I would definitely have as much fat sucked out as possible.
I would never have plastic surgery because I have had too many surgeries for medical reasons that I HAD to have. I've been through enough pain and would not elect to have a surgery. Plus I am cheap and would not pay those high prices.
I realized some time ago that when I was young and hated my body for not being thin, that was the best I'd ever look. And every year after that when I hated my body it was still the best I'd ever look. I always loved pretty clothes and wouldn't get anything beautiful because my body didn't deserve it. I wish I had been happy with what I had.
I think I know when I am gaining or losing weight by how my clothes fit, or by how I feel. Right now, I am very overweight, but, I will work on it. In the meantime, I think your attitudes toward weight and plastic surgery are so healthy. Also, whatever your weight, body shape, or height, you are absolutely stunning. I hope you are feeling well, and that is all that matters! You are a love.
I love Iris also!! She says something like more is more and less is a bore!! I’ve ordered her necklaces and pile them on like she does. It’s fun!! Love seeing your shop and clothes you put together. Plastic surgery is a personal decision but nowadays with all the injectables and lasers and thermage procedures we won’t need surgery!! My dermatologist is my favorite doctor!! You are amazing and love watching your videos.
I like to hop on the scale occasionally to keep the weight in check. Clothes - especially jeans - are so super stretchy now that it's easy to gain 5lbs and not even notice.
Hi Elise, What a lovely cozy video. It felt as though we were sitting chatting together, I wish we had been. 😊☕️ I agree with you about weight. How we should not focus on numbers on a scale but about looking at how our body is designed and going with what’s best for each specific person. It surprised me that so many people, over the years, have though you lost weight. When it’s so obvious that the change is in your wardrobe, with correct sizing. I noticed your clothing size/style change throughout the years. Maybe I understand it so well because I did the same thing in wearing larger sizes when I was younger. When I began wearing the correct size people were shocked at the difference. It’s just a clothing size folks. Lol 😂 I also agree with you that the hardest part of covid has been the lack of contact with people. I miss going to events and meeting friends. I’m so ready for festivals and events again. So much love to you and your family. 🤗😄❤️
I loved your comment about the weight part. Couldn't agree more! I have to weigh myself from time to time to know if I'm allowed to donate blood but other than that how you feel inside is so much more important. 😉
Nice video!! :S i don´t understand why people ask about weight. uggh. for me also was difficult, i am shorter than you and i struggled with that in the past, now i feel healthy and more happy.
Plastic surgery is a personal decision and NOBODY else's business ! It's YOUR life..nobody else's. You want it..you do it....and don't give a rip what anyone says ! 😒
Jumping in front of the mirror is a scary tactic haha. Standing naked in front of it, yes. Jumping makes me scared that I might dislike something and overthink it. But I am open for convincing. So I will try ;)
Lock down was horrible and I have a husband I love very much. 24/7 with anyone is too much. I need to interact with more than one person. Weight is just a number. Don't even be concerned.
You answered my question on Instagram about what you do when you get home 😹and I thought it was so funny because I do the exact same thing. It’s like I need to drop my day entirely to relax into my cozy hovel
What you said on the weight issue was very wise. It is not common to hear that from such a young person. And Don’t worry about your English: It is clear enough ! Lots of love,
Honestly, I always have been a person that did not believe that plastic surgery was a solution to low self esteem. BUT, I'm 41 years old now and I have very hooded eyes. And if I was in the position, I'd have an eyelid correction. Not because of the aesthetics, but because the hoods cause me to feel tired ALL day every day. I just want the feeling back that my eyes are completely open.
I always thought I would, too, but at nearly 80, I have seen that very few people look good with eyelid surgery. Or any vanity surgery. It’s always obvious.
Brenda is right. Not worth it. And you're gonna age sooner or later. My goal is Iris as she mentioned. Since having had to buzz cut my hair, I have had to go from "you look so YOUNG!!" to now looking like an old woman. So, now I embrace it and decorate it. I did my eyes after a divorce at 40, and four years later, I bought boobs. The boobs I took out, but the eyes... Wish I hadn't. Like I said, Brenda is right. We all age. Embrace it. Society idolizes youth, and we're gonna see a whole lotta BAD cut & paste jobs on tv and youtube... Just my thoughts. XXOO
@@lindadodd3829 it has nothing to do with age, or wanting to look younger. I just don't want to feel tired all the time. It FEELS like my eyes never open properly. It has absolutely nothing to do with the way I look, I actually love the way I look.
@@naamahnotorious955 I hear you... I have the same issue and often wondered why my eyes feel heavy and like I could go for a nap... after reading your experience I have realised it’s my hooded excess skin on my eyes tires my eyes and me.. hence the heavy eye wanting to rest them... thanks for sharing and the insight... 👍🙏🏻🤗
@@kashkakent3511 I was always a side sleeper, but sleeping on my back, however difficult, has helped with the hoods a little. Maybe that can be a bit of help for you too?
I have been avoiding of standing on a scale lately because I am worried of being too underweight and I am doing already my best to gain some weight,I don't want to stress about that too.
Its about looking healthy, and feeling healthy. Im too old to worry too much about weight. I know when I need lose a little it when my pants are cutting me around the stomach, I just eat smaller meals
Oh my gosh... You literally have the body I wish I had again.... Strong and perfect! I used to have the legs and bum of a weight lifter withought being man-like. You are beautiful!! ❤️💯
I too have been single for nearly six years now and I am only 145 cm tall!! 😂 As to my weight, COVID and general lethargy coupled with malaise have really done their work on me, so I don’t ever check on it. As if life isn’t hard enough, I don’t need to go on worrying about my weight.
As far as cosmetic surgery goes, I would say I would probably be fine with getting some if say I got a broken nose or like if I were to lose a lot of weight and have the excess skin issue? I'd get that removed. I don't think there's anything wrong with cosmetic surgery in and of itself, but like anything too much of a good thing isn't healthy.
I so agree about the weight issue. A woman I went to high school with posted a picture on Facebook and she was very thin in the picture. I couldn't believe all the comments about her weight and how great she looked. About six months later she passed away from cancer. Here she was battling for her life and she wanted to keep her health private and all these people were focused on her weight not realizing she was near the end of her life. I felt so bad for her.
That is just heartbreaking :'(
:-(
😁🤦
Someone told me when I was younger to enjoy where you are, when you are. At some point, you will look back and realize how amazing you have always been and didn't appreciate.
I am 74 and have had a lifetime of obesity. 4 years ago I put myself on a very healthy plan beginning at 250 pounds and now maintain a healthy range of 140 - 150 pounds consistently. This has improved my health 100%. Living happy and healthy.
When you said your single for five years now I realized that I am following for at least six or seven years now. That’s crazy ☺️
Same and I can't believe it's been 5 years tbh, crazy
Omg same! I found her when she was with Daniel, she was soooo hippie and had green dreads 🥰 Wow I can't believe it's been such a long time since then
Wow, same!!
Iam 350 lbs and absolutely not ashamed to say that to you. Iam big and beautiful. My whole body is like jello if I jump, but not unhappy. It is all about confidence, and I I project myself to others. If someone says god your fat I just say wow you have good eye sight lol
You don't need plastic surgery. You are perfect just the way you are.
You seem like such a beautiful, kind, level headed young woman. To have your gorgeous store and your design skills is quite an accomplishment.
aww thank you ^_^
I am an old woman now and don't really care what I weigh because I have so many medical d/os that cause huge weight fluctuations. All I can say is that really appreciate your body NOW, don't wait! Later you will realize that at 18 you had the best body you will ever have. Also. your Mom sounds very wise in regard to weight- thanks for discussing this sensitive topic!
I love that: ask people "how are you " sooo important, yes !! Thank you, Elise.
you made perfect sense. Agree 100% .. you spoke very well. you are very wise
You are so welcome in Oregon anytime you find yourself in the US- seriously. I've been watching your videos since you were nearly too shy to say your name to the camera and now here you are making such a lovely video- in excellent English!
What a wonderful message about body acceptance. I was shamed for my body type most of my life and it has left deep scars. You are so wise and delightful and deserving of love and closeness. Things will look up soon! 🙏🏼🥰🙏🏼
Awwww, love you so much Elise. Wish I could give you a hug. Thanks for chatting. I would love more chatty videos in the future dear girl. 💖💖💖
I avoided mirror and scale during the pandemic. I knew I was gaining weight. Plus I have the most intense depression. I started to workout again and try to love my body how it is but it's really difficult.
Keep going, better day's will come 😊
I can’t wait for you to have lots of sunshine and lots of cuddles!!!!! Thanks for being you sweet one!! Love and light 💖💖💖💖💖💖
You have so much wisdom, Elise !!!! I may be a guy but I love your videos !!! ;-)
You have such a positive view of weight and being body positive! It’s refreshing!
I spent way too much of my youth standing on a scale and judging myself because of a number. I look back now and think how stupid I was. I’m so glad you took your mom’s advice and learned to love yourself because you are beautiful inside and out❤️
Thank you
You're such a lovely person, thank you for sharing this chat with the internet.
I admire your thoughtful and intentional approach to life. You have achieved such depth of character at such a young age.
Thank you

I love..LOVE.. whenever you say "cozy" 💖☺️ Makes me want to be home and just do nothing but cozy up with my baby dog 🐕
I love Iris too! She is so fabulous! ✌️
Thank you.🌷it is always lovely to hear from you.
You’re so lovely!!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. ❤️
I love your explanation on body weight, and the advice your mother gave you! Great body positivity, and that is what makes a person confident!
Thanks for sharing all these intimate issues with us. It helps us to get to know you better. Things will get better. Hope you continue to thrive, in spite of the difficulties of the day. Love you shop, and colors.

You might want to look up daylight bulbs. They are supposed to mimic the sunshine in your home that might help with the gloomy feeling
yes...I love Iris. Her book is so inspiring and definitely a great fashion read.
I should read that!
I totally agree with your perspective on weight. Excellent advice 😊
Plastic surgery is such an personal thing. If a person has always hated something on their body, and can afford it, why not. Being older, there are changes to my face that I hate, and might look into some improvements someday.
I love your comments about weight. We all have different bodies. I wish everyone would accept this concept.
I loved this! Beautiful chat and o think it really helps to share how everyone is dealing with all of this difficult time. Together we can make it through and grow stronger.

I apologize Elise, sorry about that. I mis-wrote your name.
You are gorgeous!! Inside and out and I whole hearted believe how you feel about weight!!!
Thank you Elise for your words about weight, you are so right about just being comfortable in your own skin without having to weigh yourself all the time ( I haven’t stepped on a set of scales in many, many years as my obsession with my weight led me to have an eating disorder when I was 16 and I promised myself that I wouldn’t weigh myself again!.

You are a peach!!! I enjoyed the Q and A… once a month would be great🙏🥰🇺🇸
I don't think that I would ever have plastic surgery but like you, I won't say never. I feel that having so many options to change ourselves is actually a bad thing for us. We end up not being the real us after awhile. I hope that you get more sunshine soon and find that wonderful man that can make your life even happier.
Lovely video... Thank you 🙏🏻... Sending you a virtual hug 🤗 and some Australian Sunshine ☀️ 🇦🇺☀️
Body dysmorphia is a lot more common than most people think and can be very frustrating
You are such a lovely person inside and out. I have not been out since March but you brighten up my days that is for sure.
Omgoodness you're thoughts on weight are so healthy and AWESOME. I luv you, you're a beautiful person inside and out!!!
"Touch, closeness... Or some more sun! If I could get both... That would be awesome." Well Elise.... You got it, girl :).
Love your videos!! Love your style and your shop!! Love your make-up today!!
Love the chatting..it’s good to hear you talk about your feelings, it’s lonesome out here!
I believe you are the most beautiful person on the inside as well as outside. I am a child of the seventies and you almost nailed that era but the feather earrings and the huge bell bottom jeans. Hang on to your thought processes and yes you are model material. You my dear will work through all of these feelings and troubles you have and become a stronger woman because of that. As far as the dating scene, it is hard to date a very independent woman. He will have to be able to communicate with you and let you have your space. I found my mate after a divorce who gives me my room to breathe and its awhile to find that person. Stay busy and keep being the beautiful you.
Still watching, your such a lovely person, your meet someone, and it doesnt hurt to be picky.
I really love this kind of videos of yours, I enjoy hearing your interesting opinions and so 😊 I was cleaning up my studio while watching your video and it was definitely cozy 🥰 Btw, about plastic surgery...

I think it is absolutely ok to have plastic surgery in cases when you actually need it for your physical or mental health 🤗
A good video! I hate scales also but check my weight by how my jeans fit.
It’s so true Elise, when you wear clothes that are actually your size, was also a discovery for me! I feel so much smaller 😄
Yes! exactly.
A bit life lesson for me too.
I lost over 50 pounds due to health issues and people said that to me a lot. I 100% agree with you on the weight topic.
Elise don't ever let anybody make you worry about your weight! You're naturally beautiful. A lot of people seem to judge women by their weight and that really, really bothers me. Look at all the young girls and women who develop anorexia and bulimia after being made to feel bad about their weight.

I sooooo miss cuddles too , but I do have my dog who shows me lots of love xx
I weigh myself everyday, it’s kinda sad… I think that Elise advice is good! Looking at your body and paying attention to how you feel is more important
I agree with you about the weight topic, the weight doesn't define if you are healthy or not. In my case, I've almost always, since i was little, been told that im underweight when i go to the hospital for a general check, because of my height I'm tall and my complexion is thin, so in the scale i always come up as I'm underweight but I'm actually healthy... so yeah i don't rely in weight either to define if i am healthy or not. And about plastic surgeries, personally i would only get something done if its something that i cannot change in any other way than getting surgery and if its seriously affecting my mental health, but not if its something unnecessary or just because other people is telling me to. For example since i was little many people (sadly family members) have made bad comments about my nose saying it's too big blahblah, i felt insecure for a while but now i accepted and i see it as a part of me, i wouldn't feel myself if i change the shape of my nose, so yeah, its ok if you do it because YOU want to change it and not because of other people comments :)
Hi Elise I really enjoyed this vlog Q&A you are brave to answer all those personal questions so honestly x I appreciate your views on beauty, weight and body positively far too much emphasis is on outward looks and tbh being around ppl or watching you tubers who are nice real people like you make these lockdown more bearable x hope you find someone special in the near future they'd be lucky to have you and wishing you success with your business you've achieved so much in a year, that's something to feel proud of x
Your English is as good as your fashion sense......extremely interesting and easy to relate to. I wish I could manage just a few words of Danish so that I could at least give you a cheery greeting.
Stay safe and stay well dear friend
Best Wishes from England

That is a very healthy way to feel about your body. That is probably why you are trim, because you are not obsessed with your body or how much you weigh. Thank you.
Your view on weight is so healthy, I'm doing my best not to obsess about my weight so much, especially because I don't move as much because of miss rona.
I’m totally right there with you on the need of snuggles and more sunlight! I’ve been googling ways to increase serotonin since that is the hormone that both sunlight and snuggles help your brain release more of. Maybe it’ll be helpful for you too! These alternatives aren’t a replacement, but are here in the meantime. Stay well💗✌️
I live in London and on my own it's been very difficult at times....
Great video! And I actually really like the dots you put around your eyes, it definitely works. Regarding plastic surgery, I think the only thing I'm interested in would be a smaller waist. I focus on my weight far, far too much. I hate my size. I've always been overweight, and medication has made me even bigger and I hate it. I would definitely have as much fat sucked out as possible.
I would never have plastic surgery because I have had too many surgeries for medical reasons that I HAD to have. I've been through enough pain and would not elect to have a surgery. Plus I am cheap and would not pay those high prices.
Just because it's "plastic surgery" doesn't mean it can't be medically necessary. ❤️ I have botox for migraines. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
I enjoyed your answer about weight. I'm glad you have this view about it. ❤️ Some people obsess over numbers which can be unhealthy.
I realized some time ago that when I was young and hated my body for not being thin, that was the best I'd ever look. And every year after that when I hated my body it was still the best I'd ever look. I always loved pretty clothes and wouldn't get anything beautiful because my body didn't deserve it. I wish I had been happy with what I had.
I think I know when I am gaining or losing weight by how my clothes fit, or by how I feel. Right now, I am very overweight, but, I will work on it. In the meantime, I think your attitudes toward weight and plastic surgery are so healthy. Also, whatever your weight, body shape, or height, you are absolutely stunning. I hope you are feeling well, and that is all that matters! You are a love.
I love Iris also!! She says something like more is more and less is a bore!! I’ve ordered her necklaces and pile them on like she does. It’s fun!! Love seeing your shop and clothes you put together. Plastic surgery is a personal decision but nowadays with all the injectables and lasers and thermage procedures we won’t need surgery!! My dermatologist is my favorite doctor!! You are amazing and love watching your videos.
I like to hop on the scale occasionally to keep the weight in check. Clothes - especially jeans - are so super stretchy now that it's easy to gain 5lbs and not even notice.
Hi Elise, What a lovely cozy video. It felt as though we were sitting chatting together, I wish we had been. 😊☕️
I agree with you about weight. How we should not focus on numbers on a scale but about looking at how our body is designed and going with what’s best for each specific person.
It surprised me that so many people, over the years, have though you lost weight. When it’s so obvious that the change is in your wardrobe, with correct sizing. I noticed your clothing size/style change throughout the years. Maybe I understand it so well because I did the same thing in wearing larger sizes when I was younger. When I began wearing the correct size people were shocked at the difference. It’s just a clothing size folks. Lol 😂
I also agree with you that the hardest part of covid has been the lack of contact with people. I miss going to events and meeting friends. I’m so ready for festivals and events again.
So much love to you and your family. 🤗😄❤️
I loved your comment about the weight part. Couldn't agree more! I have to weigh myself from time to time to know if I'm allowed to donate blood but other than that how you feel inside is so much more important. 😉
Nice video!! :S i don´t understand why people ask about weight. uggh. for me also was difficult, i am shorter than you and i struggled with that in the past, now i feel healthy and more happy.
Plastic surgery is a personal decision and NOBODY else's business ! It's YOUR life..nobody else's. You want it..you do it....and don't give a rip what anyone says ! 😒
Jumping in front of the mirror is a scary tactic haha. Standing naked in front of it, yes. Jumping makes me scared that I might dislike something and overthink it. But I am open for convincing. So I will try ;)
Lock down was horrible and I have a husband I love very much. 24/7 with anyone is too much. I need to interact with more than one person. Weight is just a number. Don't even be concerned.
You answered my question on Instagram about what you do when you get home 😹and I thought it was so funny because I do the exact same thing. It’s like I need to drop my day entirely to relax into my cozy hovel
hahha how grat, I thought I was just weird. It's just the nicest feeling to take off everything
Very good too about weight. Thanks
What you said on the weight issue was very wise. It is not common to hear that from such a young person. And Don’t worry about your English: It is clear enough ! Lots of love,
That blue dress in the background is so cute.
GBU!😁
Just wanted to tell you that U did good in answering the questions for #2 and 10🙌🏼
Please don’t get plastic surgery. You will continue to grow and bloom into an even more beautiful person.
Honestly, I always have been a person that did not believe that plastic surgery was a solution to low self esteem. BUT, I'm 41 years old now and I have very hooded eyes. And if I was in the position, I'd have an eyelid correction. Not because of the aesthetics, but because the hoods cause me to feel tired ALL day every day. I just want the feeling back that my eyes are completely open.
I always thought I would, too, but at nearly 80, I have seen that very few people look good with eyelid surgery. Or any vanity surgery. It’s always obvious.
Brenda is right. Not worth it. And you're gonna age sooner or later. My goal is Iris as she mentioned. Since having had to buzz cut my hair, I have had to go from "you look so YOUNG!!" to now looking like an old woman. So, now I embrace it and decorate it. I did my eyes after a divorce at 40, and four years later, I bought boobs. The boobs I took out, but the eyes... Wish I hadn't. Like I said, Brenda is right. We all age. Embrace it. Society idolizes youth, and we're gonna see a whole lotta BAD cut & paste jobs on tv and youtube... Just my thoughts. XXOO
@@lindadodd3829 it has nothing to do with age, or wanting to look younger. I just don't want to feel tired all the time. It FEELS like my eyes never open properly. It has absolutely nothing to do with the way I look, I actually love the way I look.
@@naamahnotorious955 I hear you... I have the same issue and often wondered why my eyes feel heavy and like I could go for a nap... after reading your experience I have realised it’s my hooded excess skin on my eyes tires my eyes and me.. hence the heavy eye wanting to rest them... thanks for sharing and the insight... 👍🙏🏻🤗
@@kashkakent3511 I was always a side sleeper, but sleeping on my back, however difficult, has helped with the hoods a little. Maybe that can be a bit of help for you too?
Love lo e love theses type of Q &A yes More !!!
I think you are just beautiful, and it is no ones business on your weight. Stay well, stay strong!
I have been avoiding of standing on a scale lately because I am worried of being too underweight and I am doing already my best to gain some weight,I don't want to stress about that too.
You’re definitely a beautiful lady with a beautiful heart!❤️
Its about looking healthy, and feeling healthy. Im too old to worry too much about weight. I know when I need lose a little it when my pants are cutting me around the stomach, I just eat smaller meals
Oh my gosh... You literally have the body I wish I had again.... Strong and perfect! I used to have the legs and bum of a weight lifter withought being man-like. You are beautiful!! ❤️💯
Asking your height and weight is too personal!
I too have been single for nearly six years now and I am only 145 cm tall!! 😂 As to my weight, COVID and general lethargy coupled with malaise have really done their work on me, so I don’t ever check on it. As if life isn’t hard enough, I don’t need to go on worrying about my weight.
I am 72. I haven't known my weight for 30 years. I just don't eat as much when my clothes get tight. I have worn the same size clothes for years.
As far as cosmetic surgery goes, I would say I would probably be fine with getting some if say I got a broken nose or like if I were to lose a lot of weight and have the excess skin issue? I'd get that removed. I don't think there's anything wrong with cosmetic surgery in and of itself, but like anything too much of a good thing isn't healthy.
I completely understand anything that is to fix an actual issue! Definitely
Thank you for sharing im in love with your videos 💜💜👏
