    I can relate to everything to your saying from times I lost a lot of weight, through diet or illness or joining a gym . The big shocker was how rude people were about my weight loss , obviously many people are thrilled for you but the people who were rude would never say anything to an overweight person- to their face at least . I also experienced people who were thin implying you’re not that thin as they liked to think of you as their chubby friend if that makes sense .
    The loose skin is unfortunately a universal problem. I follow a lady called Lucy Wyndham-Read who does videos on UA-cam of which some are body part specific eg Arms , they’re short videos ,easy to do at home and if you have 10 minutes when the kids are at school you could try . I’ve only ever done the arms one so far .
    You’re a sensible, intelligent girl and you’re doing brilliantly !

      Susan Laffan thanks so much Susan, people can be so hurtful and rude and it’s hard to take especially when they think they mean well. I think it’s so important to radiate love and kindness and a lot of that has to start within and how kind we are to yourselves! You have always been one of my biggest supports and I forever appreciate it lovely 🧡🧡

    I'm glad I have a video like this be posted. I made many excuses about starting my weight loss journey due to many of these factors, but many people didn't consider them as valid. As someone so young, the loose skin really does play on my mind. Thank you for being so honest! 😘

    Very well said natasha x I had very negative comments sadly from my siblings even though they were trimmer then me. That in turn made me depressed and eat more. When I told my coach she said its sibling rivalry. I tried to defend myself saying ww wouldn't weigh me if I was underweight. I'm really trying hard to go back to how I was. Thanks for your amazing channel. I mentioned it to a ww colleague in my meeting on Saturday to look u up as I said you are so inspirational 🙂👍keep up the good work. So so so proud of you xxx

    Hi Natasha! Funny, this popped up at the most opportune time. I was just talking to my 25 yr old daughter about this very thing this morning. I was telling her and my 22yr old son that I tried on their jeans this morning. I am significantly shorter than both of them. 4 inches shorter than the she and a foot shorter than my son. My daughter is her ideal weight and I size 10. Her jeans I can fit on 1 side. My son's jeans there are too big.(he is on the really low side of his healthy weight range). What I was explaining was, I try on their clothes, especially my daughter's, to gauge my progress because I still see the "fat lady" when I look in the mirror. The voice in the back of my mind is saying, " you can't fit in those you are a fatty". I am not a fatty, by any stretch of the imagination now. Oh before I forget...I use the word fatty to describe MYSELF ONLY, to anyone who may be reading this. I have gone from a size XXL (or a size 24 to a size 2-4). The first time around with WW I weighed, 350 pounds! I got down to my Dr's at the time, goal of 145. This time around, I have a new doctor..I had to be in my healthy weight range(95-127). I am very short, 5 feet. I am in that range. Do I have extra skin? OMG more than I could ever tell you. I had 3 kids in 4 years and all delivered by C-section. My stomach is not pretty..it will never be flat.(my arms aren't pretty either) It is very hard to not listen to that voice in the back of your mind. It's always there, at least for me. Some how you just have to figure out how to not listen to it. Honestly, THAT is the hardest part of weight loss. Have I done it? no.. I am getting better about it, most of the time. Luckily though, because I am disabled, I learned a very long time ago(I am 56), not to care about what others thought about me. You have to love yourself for who you are, over weight or not. Accept yourself for who you are. If someone doesn't like you or how you look, that is a them problem, not a you problem. What they think means absolutely nothing but to anyone other than themselves. As soon as you can think that way, believe me, the better off you will be.

    • @NatashaSummer
      @NatashaSummer  5 років тому +1

      Michelle Zerber yeah I agree, I just have to do what’s right for me and not let people get to me and for the most part I don’t but I feel like people think smaller framed or slimmer people don’t have the same feelings?! You would never say things to an overweight person but they feel it’s acceptable when someone is smaller, it’s crazy...anyways I hope you’re well lovely 🧡🧡

    • @michellezerber
      @michellezerber 5 років тому

      @@NatashaSummer I totally understand. I am really small framed. Even petite length clothing is too long. People just say things out loud and think you won't hear it. I think that is worse. There is no delete button to just get rid of their comments. People can be so rude. I am doing well thanks. I need to add a few calories and points myself. I lost 1.4 pounds this week. It's nothing big. It will just put me more towards the middle of my healthy weight range so that is ok.

    @martha3555 5 років тому +1

    Thank you for talking about all these things. I am always surprised at the weird reactions people have when you change, especially with weight. I guess it just goes to show how messed up we all are thanks to unrealistic expectations in society. The negative reactions can hurt but I think they are usually coming from a hurt place in the other person. You of all people have always been super kind and supportive to everyone so you can't be held responsible for how it makes anyone feel. I do hate the way society in general is nicer to a person who is thin, holding doors, smiling, etc, not realizing you're the same person who they ignored when heavier. But like you said, ultimately self love is the most important thing because your value shouldn't depend on your size ever. Much ❤ to you Natasha, you are always lovely in every way

I’ve never commented on any post ever on u tube(took my teenagers to show me how) so you are obviously doing something right!! I started off doing so so well but since coming back from my holidays a few weeks ago I’m struggling a bit to get back into it but I know I will eventually!! Your videos give me
    great ideas and they teach me not to be too hard on myself!! Like you say we only live once!! You keep doing what you are doing which is a fantastic job!! Xx

    Aw you’re so lovely Natasha and so relatable. I’m constantly getting comments now saying you’re all eyes and teeth. I’ve lost 7 stone and still have 2 to go to in a healthy BMI but people are saying that I’m taking it too far, but I really just want to stick to plan and hit my target. Also can relate on the binge/restrict front. I’m a binge eater and I think it will always be with me. I try now not to have binge foods in the house as I know that I cannot stop at 1 chocolate bar or even 5 sometimes 🤦🏻‍♀️ I also go through phases of being too hard on myself and restricting, but then those are the weeks I don’t lose anything. I’m just going to stick to plan for the rest of my journey and enjoy my food and not be too hard on myself. Great video xx

    This video is spot on!!! I lost 5 and half stone for my wedding and got negative comments from in laws being jealous of me looking good. Unfortunately I put it all back on again gradually over 14 years, but have started to lose weight again and I've lost 2 stone 10lbs in 15 wks. Trying to get your brain into thinking that you dont need that bigger size and that you will fit into smaller places that you wouldn't have fitted before, on our honeymoon we went on a camel and I thought I was going to hurt it even though I was down to 11 stone I worried until I got off it again 🙈. I walk at least 10000 steps a day and it has got rid of my cellulite, which I'm over the moon about , I've had 3 sections I have stretch marks and I'm proud of them yes I will always have a overhang, but that doesnt bother me, my bingo wings I'm working on and hopefully I will get them alot smaller xx

    • @NatashaSummer
      @NatashaSummer  5 років тому +1

      Aww, it's so comforting to hear I am not alone with this, its such a shame we can get negativity especially when it comes from a family who is supposed to be the ones offering unconditional love and support but sadly it doesn't work out that way. Keep going with your journey, you have done it before so you can again for sure x

    Thank you so much for this honest and empathetic video 💕 These are genuine concerns for people and it’s so great that you tackle them on your channel. I am currently working on losing weight - my end goal is 35 lbs down. I’m 40 and have “always” been complimented on the fact that I look a lot younger. I’ve thought a lot about the changes weight loss is going to make to my face, in terms of wrinkles, and I’m ashamed to say that it’s actually held me back from going all in with weight loss before. I’ve been afraid of losing “my thing”, as it were. I keep telling myself that the gift of a lighter body will be all worth it in the end.
    Keep up the wonderful work, looking forward to your next videos!

    • @NatashaSummer
      @NatashaSummer  5 років тому +1

      Aww babe we all have to decide what's right for us, I have a friend who was a 16-18 and she got down to a 10 but missed her body before so she put it on, I think its amazing to be so self assured and to accept how you feel happy no matter what it is for others, it only made me love and respect her even more. Its such a joy now for me to be happy and confident in my own skin x

      I had 2 comments from 2 family members in the same 2hrs, one saying I looked Bulimic and the next anorexic and childlike, one said with concern and the other I am not so sure. I hate these serious disorders being chucked around so carelessly as they are real life struggles for some...I addressed it by gently but firmly reassuring them and telling them you can't look bulimic (you either are or you are not) I am just trying to give people the benefit of the doubt in most cases both online and off x

    My late mother always said, "You don't wear your size on your sleeve !" If I was up or down, she always said it was important to wear what fits and is comfortable. I have been at goal for 3 years and I'm still adjusting to wearing a smaller size after losing 50 pounds. After becoming a "senior", I still have issues getting used to a new image. People have so many comments, both positive and negative, The important thing to remember is that we have more energy, more stamina and better habits. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings. Despite our age difference, I feel that I share so many ideas that you have. 🌞🌞🌞

  • @jenniedahlen6325
    @jenniedahlen6325 5 років тому

    Great subject Natasha! I have the same feelings & some of the same reactions to my weight loss. I've lost a little over 100lbs so everything is even more pronounced than what you've experienced, plus I turned 60 last year. I've definitely have more wrinkles, before I had a very chubby face but not any longer, I can now wear anything I want, but I don't feel comfortable because of my lose skin. But I'm with you the good outweighs the bad. I also have people telling me I'm too skinny, I'm not. I've been below my WW weight goal for about 18 months, so WW does work, but you have to continue counting your points to keep your weight off.

Last year my Mum died & all I've done is eat. But I'm now on WW & lost 21lbs so far. So I would love you to do more videos like this in the future 💖💕 ps sorry for the long post hope it makes sense!

I gained red stretch marks on my thighs and I knew NOTHING about stretch marks, I thought they were veins, and it struck me that we hide these things so much that it’s like we’re all alone in it, and literally don’t even recognise what’s happening. So seeing you talk about skin and stretch marks I know people will feel less alone x

    AMEN!! Loose skin especially lower abdomen is my nemesis. I am down 90 pounds and when I get to my goal weight my Dr thinks I will need to have it removed because of the lower back pain it is causing. People are funny at times about weight loss either all in or all out on how they treat you.

    Bless I understand everything you're saying thank you for being so honest. I'm proud of my mum tum but I am also replused by it but only when I try on/ wear clothes and I can see my skin apron but I love showing my mum tum off in the flesh I have no problem wearing a bikini showing it to the world I'm a 14-18 I'm heavy chested even when I lose weight, because of this I would like to get to 10-12. I've been skinny after my children and people were really mean to me saying nasty things like I starve myself never eat they got really jealous thought my boobs were fake. Since I've put weight on I get taken far more seriously and far more respected and admired more and no nasty comments it's very strange. It's like people can see me for me if that makes sense. 🤔 Love watching you videos i just appreciate how down to earth and honest too. You beaut of a soul you. Xxxxx

      Aww babe this comment has really meant a lot to me, it seems that these struggles are very common and I think it's important that we talk about it and share in hopes it makes things a little easier. All the love Lianne x

    I understand the whole feeling bad about other people weight loss. Im guilty of it and I think it's a little jealousy but for me it's mostly low self esteem but everyone has to remember everyone journey is different. So own it!!

    Love this! I've had 4 babies and 4 C-Sections so my stomach looks like Freddie Kroger's face and the biggest loser skin baby. Its horrible. Disliking leftover skin and stretch marks is OK. I have been shamed by so many women for disliking mine. Just because I hate them doesn't mean I dislike my children. So people are just hateful. Hurt people hurt people. You look beautiful and healthy! And I find you so inspiring! And look forward to the videos you share. Keep on mama! You are doing a fantastic job!

You’re beautiful Jessica and you have your babies a safe little home so they could enter a not so nice world...all we can do is our best to remember there is good out there x

    Finally catching up on some youtube in between some housework 😂 I know you don’t like working out but I would encourage you try & find something you like to do. Getting your heartrate up a couple of times a week is as important as losing the weight, it’s also good to do some weight bearing exercise for our bone health. I’ve always worked out no matter my weight. I do find it helps with keeping skin firmer and cellulite. Xx

    • @NatashaSummer

      Michelle J yeah I agree and I think it’s something I do need to look into. I may look for some local classes. My friends go to Pilates so I may start joining them x

      Natasha Summar pilates is excellent, I started a class in January partly to help with my running as I’ve suffered so many injuries over the last few years. My arms are noticeably more toned since starting as well as my tummy....if I suck it in and ignore the rolls 😂

    Having lost and regained lots of weight I am talking up to ten stone. I have lots of these issues already. I struggle with my weight 22 stone plus and worry now I have hit 40 how my body will deal with this issue. I have struggled my whole life with weight issues and being healthy as I am not. I have diabetes, PCOS and an underactive thyroid. I was doing okay up till about three weeks ago and now I am really struggling to get back on track. Partly because it's coming up to the anniversary of my mum passing away after she was hit by a car and part of my problem is I don't think I am good enough and that's a struggle I think I will always have.

    • @issimma
      @issimma 5 років тому +1

      Sarah Parker - Sarah, my heart absolutely goes out to you, especially hearing that about your mum, I’m so sorry that happened 💓 I also lost my mum when she was only 48 years old and it’s coming up to her anniversary too so I fully understand and resonate with how you are feeling. Take care of yourself first and foremost, feeling like you are not good enough is a big issue for me also. Lack of self-worth and self-love is something I need to work on. Have a look on Amazon there’s a lot of good self-help books on there which you might want to have a look at and which might help. Start small and begin doing little positive things solely for you and for your own benefit. A lot of people recommend having a ‘self-care’ day once a week, (not sure I would ever dedicate a whole day to just myself !) But I like the concept of taking time for yourself and treating and spoiling yourself, not necessarily in an extravagant way or even necessarily to do with food but just looking after yourself and appreciating who you are and what you have to offer this world. I think weight gain and weight loss is all to do with how you are feeling mentally. If you don’t feel good about yourself then the desire and motivation to lose weight sometimes just isn’t there, then the worse you feel about yourself the less you feel like doing anything about it or the desire to comfort eat increases so it’s like a perpetual vicious circle. Hope this doesn’t sound patronising, I’m coming from a place of having been in this situation firsthand. Like I say small steps, begin to accept and love yourself (flaws and all) right here, right now in the present moment, you are worthy of everything as much as the next person. Don’t worry about other people and what they think, have faith in yourself and be kind to yourself. I’m sure your mum would want this for you too....Take care lovely lady.

    You were pretty before your weight loss and you are pretty now! You are beautiful inside and out. I have always been thin and underweight. Throughout my life people have made negative comments regarding my small body. People have said that I am anorexic. The comments hurt but I ignore the comments because I know better. So just ignore cruel people and their nasty remarks. Often times, these people are just jealous.

    • @NatashaSummer
      @NatashaSummer  5 років тому

      Bobbie Ditcharo-Roland yeah I was told twice just this weekend I was anorexic and another bulkimic which I’m obv not! I think people shouldn’t throw around things like that because these illnesses/disorders are real life struggles for some and it’s not a nice thing to comment willy nilly x

    Loose skin is a pain, I'm down 196lbs still got 45lbs to go....
    Also women being more aware of me around their partners... I'm single but I don't want their husbands... I know its their own insecurity but I feel awkward...
    Also guys helping me with my case at the station, winks from guys... I'm so not used to it... Nice though 😊
    I never log any my fitness pal food entries while on holiday... I may exercise but don't deprive myself when I'm away.... Great video xx

      @NatashaSummer  5 років тому

      Hahaha I can totally relate to this, I was whistled at the other day and I was sure it wasn't for me but he told me my dress was lovely...its nice to be appreciated. Although my husband has told me I am beautiful every single day since we met and we have been together 14 years...and that never changed despite my size. The loose skin is a pain but I think its a lesser of 2 evils and one il take every day of the week x

      @@NatashaSummer awe ♥ that's so lovely 😊 to be loved unconditionally is the key.. I'm 47 this year and since losing weight I'm more confident as you say it doesn't 'fix' everything. I still have depression and anxiety BUT being more active eliviates that. I'm working on progress not perfection and being the healthiest version of me I can be. Am I at goal.. Nope but I'm closer than I've ever been and I'm grateful for the lessons I've learnt along the way... Blessings to you 😊

    If the loose skin bothers you, consult with a plastic surgeon. I lost 100 pounds and ended up having a tummy tuck and breast lift and it was the best decision I could have made for myself. It's very frustrating to put in the effort and determination to get to your goal weight and still not have the body you worked so hard for.

    • @NatashaSummer
      @NatashaSummer  5 років тому

      I know I have thought about a tummy tuck but I just can't justify spending all of that money on something cosmetic...Id never say never but I'm not sure it bothers me enough to spend the thousands that it costs, plus its the aftercare too, I have 2 young children and feel like it would just put unnecessary strain on everything. So happy yours turned out well though babe, you must be delighted x
