I hardly ever comment but I thought you should know that I find great comfort in watching your Christmas Vlogs. I am alone during the holidays and have no family so it is such a blessing to me. Never think you don’t make a difference in someone’s life. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
You had never stopped being kind and joyful throughout these years, but for the past few months before your surgery i could tell there was an immense sadness about you. I hated seeing you like that, but now, I can see such a positive change in you. I am incredibly happy for you and hope that you continue to thrive, feel energized, and feel comfortable with yourself. The criticism that you get from strangers and the daily scrutiny is ridiculous and I wouldn’t wish that on my worst energy. Keep spreading kindness the way you’ve always done 🌸🌸🌸
In the intro, if you look at the little framed picture on the wall when Santa is putting the present under the tree!! It’s Alex and Yar from last years Vlogmas intro 😍 How freaking cute!! Graphic design details 10/10
After wls just walk as much as you can. Second week after surgery I was walking around 3 miles a day spread throughout the day and felt great. The tiredness will ease up. Have your water and walk walk as much as you can. Also bring a water everywhere you go. If you notice you havnt taken a sip in 5 minutes, sip. Water will greatly increase the energy you will have.
ALEX, you are the cream to my coffee, you are my sunshine in the morning, and my cozy fireplace in the evenings - I don't think you realize how much love, joy, and inspiration you provide me. You are beautiful. Thank you for being you.
You are literally glowing! The pure happiness is shining from the inside out. On another note everytime I herd you aunt I thought it was your mom talking, they have almost the exact same voice!
Good morning it's waking up seeing you in my notifications is a wonderful way to start off my day, hope that you and everyone watching has an amazing weekend 💖💞💖
I was tired for awhile, but took daily walks. I’m in Eastern Canada, so same cold as you and I get not wanting to go outside. I just walked the block. Started with 5 minutes and slowly increased time. It helps to build energy and prevent blood clots.
This year I got all my Christmas shopping done before December so I could enjoy the holiday season. I’ve recently tried the Fenty freestyle cream bronzer in Butta Biscuit, love!
Sipping my tea and enjoying your vlog. Very interesting to see how Christmas was like in the 1800s and much simpler times. So glad your lower back and knees are feeling better so soon…that’s great! 🤗😘
@Allen Wake What an idiotic comment. You’re the only one making a comment about living simply without commercialism and technology about race. Triggered much?
I can ABSOLUTELY tell that you're in a better place, mentally. For the last few months, I could see your usual happy spirit dissipating. Now, I see it's back! 😀
Living in Miami we have to create Christmas events. Holiday brunch this morning, Christmas carnival later then Art Basel on Sunday which is so much fun-Art-fashion/ good drinks and eats.
Good morning it's truly amazing to see your notifications best way to start my day ☺️❤️ I'm so excited for your journey and new chapter in your health! Love vlogmas! 😍🥰
That it cosmetics cc cream is literally the BEST formula I have ever tried for foundation, however the lightest shade is waaay too dark for me! BUT if you mix it with plain white foundation (I use la girl mixing pigment) it still is just as amazing! Just an FYI for you pale gals!
Are you planning on doing any weightloss updates? Like are documenting your progress? I know it's not your main focus "like the body changes" but I would love to see it if you're on the fence about sharing.
I promise I watch all of your videos I just don’t usually comment much lol BUT I have to say your videos keep me sane and you’ve literally saved me and have made me so much for confident in yourself. ❤️❤️ I truly wish we lived in the same state/area because I could literally use a bff like you. Thank you for being you. 😩💗
Been a sub for years and every year i look forward to your Vlogmas more than anyone! Thank you for sharing your life with all of us. You’re such a light. So glad you’re getting great feedback with your WLS updates. ❤️
I love that you went to Sturbridge village! I went there a few times growing up and it was always so wonderful. It was so beautiful to see it all decorated for Christmas🥰🎄
Aw the new intro is so cute. I’ll be finished my holiday shopping tomorrow hopefully 😂the la girl holiday palette on Ulta is beautiful if you need any shimmer shades
I’m all done Xmas shopping I’ve got pneumonia so ordered everything online this year just a few more of my 6 year old sons stuff to get but finished families finally and I’m finally starting to feel better after a couple weeks of hell x
Oh my godddd I went to Sturbridge Village in elementary school on a field trip. damn this brings me back! Alex you seem so happy, good for you! I am loving these vlogs.
I live right next to Old Sturbridge village!! That's about 45 minutes to an hour from you? Christmas by candlelight is tons of fun! I hope you had a blast
Aww this was so fun to watch! I feel like it really showed us a true glimpse of the 1800’s. Felt like I went back in time for sure haha very cool! Have a great Saturday, boo ❤️
I started feeling back to normal about the 3rd month. I did "old person" chair exercises in the beginning which helped me feel like i was doing at least something in the beginning. God speed your journey 💗 Also, I kept one outfit from when I was my biggest so I can remind yourself how far I've come, I definitely suggest that 🤗
This was such a fun vlog. I used to love visiting places like that with my family when I was younger. It's so interesting to see how people used to live and when you visit "real life" places it just makes everything seem, well real, lol. The ornament was so beautiful and would've looked so nice with your tree but I'm assuming you didn't get it since you didn't mention it again. Also, loved your makeup!
Love Christmas Villages and the old century ones especially. We have plenty of them here in Pennsylvania!...nice video Alex, love the text from Yar to you about him playing Santa and for you not to come out of your office, so cute! 💗 Happy Vlogmas!
ohhh this video was sooo cute. loved the old town feel. it was what i needed. Alex you look so good. what a feeling to try things on that didn’t feet well before and know they just glide on. Go You!
Your hair always looks so cute when you do that half up half down look and i wish I could get mine too look that effortless and cute! I have short hair now but I usually just end up leaving it down normal because I cant find cute hair styles for it!
Many wishes to you for a continued good road of recovery and feeling better. Thank you for taking us on that peaceful tour. I absolutely find a simpleness to strive for in that special tour. The houses were so elegant and graceful.
I had the gastric sleeve 6 months ago. I didnt get to eat mushy food until 4 weeks post opp. so i was week for awhile and got tired very easily. Good luck Alex.
All your blogs make me want to visit the east coast, I love all the old buildings the history the cozy weather 😩we have nothing like that in LA I’ve told my husband we need to visit Boston because of your blogs 😂
Love the old village demonstrations. I want to visit Boston to see some of the old colonial sights. This weekend I’ll be wrapping some presents because my closet is full lol!
Merry Christmas Alex🎄🎄🎄 Your vlogs are so enjoyable and fun! Omg that church looks so lovely and antique 😊 haven’t seen one like that in years any who Congrats on your surgery journey you look Flawless as always love ❤️💕
Wow that is an amazing tour to get an idea of how it was in that time period visi the state of Massachusetts is on my bucket list.. hello all from south texas. It’s December and we are still having 80 degree weather days
Love love this video!!! We have a similar festival here in Kentucky and it's super fun to go to as well. So happy that your back is doing better. Thank you for always keeping it real! ❤
Alex! I look forward every day to watching your videos. Thank you for doing what you do and I’m so excited for your journey and new chapter of health! 🤍
To help with your tiredness.....B-12 injections...im not sure if your Dr has suggested them, but I do them every month...1000mg I.M. This has been my energy life savor since surgery 21 years ago. It will also help against b-12 anemia which is very common with Roux n y surgery.
You could do makeup and grwm for all of VLOGMAS they are always fun to watch plus I love it when you share makeup products to let us know what’s out there that we should try !
I woke to a snowy morning with coffee and your latest vlog 🤩❄️🤗. Thank you for staying true to yourself and walking through the negativity to bring us some laughter, joy and happiness with each vlog. I’m so proud of you keeping your healthy journey and wish you success and peace thru the holidays. Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday Alex and Yar! 🎄🥳😘
Shannon ( from the previous comment) and I have similar thoughts... I am 67 years old and your videos helped me get in the Christmas spirit and put on some makeup. Eyeliner and bronzer, thank you for your vidoes
I hardly ever comment but I thought you should know that I find great comfort in watching your Christmas Vlogs. I am alone during the holidays and have no family so it is such a blessing to me. Never think you don’t make a difference in someone’s life. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
That means the world ❤️
What a lovely comment! 💜 wishes for a holiday season filled with joyous moments and loving memories for the New Year. Merry Christmas! 🤗🎄
Same Shannon. Thank you Alex for making it feel less lonely for us!❤️❤️❤️
💖
I have no family either Shannon. Know how it feels, 💗hugs from massachusetts.

I had gastric bypass and lost 97 pounds. Best decision ever. Your energy will be back soon. It’s been less than a month. 💕
ALEX, you are the cream to my coffee, you are my sunshine in the morning, and my cozy fireplace in the evenings - I don't think you realize how much love, joy, and inspiration you provide me. You are beautiful. Thank you for being you.

You seem so happy and upbeat- so wonderful to see. God bless you ❤️

I bet the black/indigenous people in the 1800s didn’t think it was peaceful and cozy 🙄
The amount of joy you bring to my life is incredible!!!!!!!!! I also never comment but girl you make me happy!!!! 🥰
Omg that makes me so happy!
This year I got all my Christmas shopping done before December so I could enjoy the holiday season. I’ve recently tried the Fenty freestyle cream bronzer in Butta Biscuit, love!
I can already tell you are slimming down! You have always looked amazing 💕💕
