  • whats the name of the film u showed there fo a while?

  • Wow, I know you must hear it a lot but...you are EXTREMELY attractive. Wow! I love the way you look with the glasses.

  • great video. i love the feel of it.

  • after latge night binge= morning double chin :)

  • You don't give yourself a free day? a day not constricted by a diet. Nutritionist say is is good to raise your blood sugar and caloric intake once a week... just like a workout... you have to confuse your body... so breaking on the 7th day is not bad... good job

  • yeah... its more the idea that i hate turning to food for emotional reasons even if it doesn't do too much damage in the long run... sitting down and eating 6000 cals (or more) in one sitting is never healthy!

    always out for that control and balance.

    thanks for the comment : )

  • As usual - your fabulous! What a great video; you manage to always make me laugh and smile. Great job for those two weeks (I know it was a month or so ago) but well done anyways!!

  • GO VEGAN!!!!!!!!

  • Fantastic video Adam keep up the good work enjoy the lemon heads

  • Excelent video!! Really really good!

    And it is like you said at the end... you just have to keep it calm! :)

  • lol i love chris you should put him on camera more hes a great comic relief

  • I like how your videos convey the full spectrum of emotions that go with trying to lose weight. Great video.

  • wow...amazing...i'm speechless...

  • Love Chris! What a great guy.

    Please don't beat yourself up for over eating once in 14 days. What is so wrong with that? Maybe you should schedule a binge once a week? Give you something to look forward to.

    Have you ever thought of making films for a living? You have an exceptional, artistic way of putting things together. Make documentaries about your friends or the area you live.

    You are a talented person and what you share has a huge impact on your audience.

    We love you!

  • fantastic video. normally I get antsy with 10 minute videos, but this one captivated my attention the entire time

  • are you a film student by any chance?

  • i am not, just a huge huge fan of film

  • just curious. it's funny, i'm not sure that i've ever actually come across a person who was into french new wave without there being some sort of academic incentive ...so i guess it's a little reassuring to know that you do exist. and it shows in your work too. not to emphasize form over content (especially when the subject matter is so compelling), but this is a really well put together video. good job!

  • much thanks. i was introduced to godard and truffaut when i was 19 and have been obsessed with french new wave cinema ever since.

  • really enjoyed this video. Its nice to see that other people have struggles and pick themselves back up and keep going. most of the time i am really inspired and uplifted by the videos on here.. other times i feel like a failure because I cant measure up and be more like ev1 else in the wt loss group. Every day is challenge and I guess that doesnt change. But its normal not to be perfect and its ok. peace

  • oh jeez, that pitiful sounding music and your sad faces. i just want to hug you.

  • lol! thank you?

  • too much of free time on your hands

  • you love it!

  • i don't know why... but I really like you.

  • great video!

  • God I just cannot get enough of this video. I really admire and respect you so much <3

    I need to come up to your place again :)

  • thanks, love : )

    i hope you can come up soon!

    also: what is the name of that program that inserts pre-written notes into fields? You showed it to me one time when you were up here. <3 <3

  • TextExpander

    :D

  • good video

  • I felt like i was watching a film, the backgound music is so effective here. I am so proud of you, and the way you show that its ok to mess up, and get back up again. This video was real for you and so many others. Bravo!!

  • You got it! Its ok! I'm so happy for you. Getting upset is the worst thing I can do to myself when I have a binge. I've learned to tell myself its ok. And I think this is *MY* key to continued success. Loved the film. Lots of love your way.

  • I hope you find something in your life that makes you feel as good as food does. Excellent video!

  • I LOVED this video

  • Loved this video. Made me sad because it was so real tho. Thank you :)

  • I am EXACTLY the same way. i HATE myself for doing it but i don't kow how to stop. i am fine but completely fall apart and go on reidiculous binges every couple of days. i recently lost 60 pounds and am still trying for 20 more

  • what a great vid adam! but of course Im sure u know that! I love lemon heads, I hate when people mention something I love cuz this prego girl wants some lemon heads now! LOL

  • I think it's great to see a week in camera. It makes u see your strenght and weakness. Great video!

    Cheers,

    Mari

  • i finally am caught up on ur vids! great job following through on ur project. it would have been so easy to just quit after day 7 altogether. but u bounced back and finished strong

  • I especially love your realisation at the end, that you're just a normal person!! it's so true. I haven't gone to the gym today, BUT that's ok, because I've been a lot recently, so it's ok to take a break and concentrate on the healthy eating side of things!

    Thanks for this video, it was really touching. X

  • adam has epic video editing skills.

    oh man! that was an amazing video. thanks for sharing your days even the bad ones. you are great.

    your friend chris has pretty eyebrows.. xD

  • I thoroughly enjoyed this, everything from the content to the editing and music. I also like that you pushed through the rest of the ten weeks even though you didn't meet your goals. I think it's important to show the struggle that comes with trying to live a healthier lifestyle. No one does it perfectly and when we show that to people, we let them know it's okay to mess up because we all do but that doesn't mean we should give up. Thanks for this.

  • Thanks for showing all sides of your journey...thx

  • thank you for being you adam. i love your brutal honesty. binging is my biggest flaw. yay for walking in the snow! good for you! i wouldn't do it..but i am a terrible person like that..i love the sexy look on the eliptical..so sexy ;)

    you made me tear up after your binge because i know that feeling all too well.

    barnes and noble...my favorite place ever :)

    and finally..yay for normalcy. adam i love you! you are so amazing. i am glad you are getting on track. youre a wonderful person and ily

  • Thanks for posting .. what we all are going thro.

    -JumokeTV

  • Great Video my friend Keep it up!

    -JumokeTV

  • OMG I loveeeeeee Lemonheads~

  • Your such an unbelievable person Adam! This was so amazing to watch. I'm right there with you and struggle with the same things, at least you recognize it. I guess I should say, at least your willing to share it. I'm not there yet and don't know if I ever will be. Your great and you are going to lead a normal life, as normal as can be expected in this life.

  • Adam....I completely understand....I have been doing really bad lately too.....I have had some bad binges lately so I know how you feel~ I hate it and love it all at the same time.....love it during hate it after~ ((((((HUGS))))))

  • This was an incredible video to watch. Very personal yet just a glimpse into each day. Kudos.

  • This was such a wonderful video. I admire you for your openness about your struggle with binge eating.

    I also imagined that on day six you stayed in to watch Truffaut all day and that's mighty cool.

  • wonderful wonderful comment, thank you for watching.

  • Adam - I'm proud of you! You have come such a long way! Glad to see that you are running more now, and wow 800 calories! Way to go! Miss you!

  • Lol i love your video! But like you said it ok we will have them daysss because i fuck up all the time! And i cant get two week in myself without eating like a pig it is very hard! but we can do it!!!!

  • WHAT!?!? how can u do this to me... ADAM!!!!!!! you made me cry... (luckily my colleague just left the room...hahah)... Maybe pushed by the music, but at the end it was the result of the combo of the vids, you and the music... ARTARTART!!! never stop doing this videos... on my knees here... master of emotions...

  • it is hard. i know exactly what you mean...i just cant physically binge anymore, but I know how that feels, the highs and the lows of that. hang on.

    a work in progress = life.

  • you are so beautiful, adam. this is one epic vlog!

  • thank you julie, it was fun (but tedious) to put together. it will be something that will be helpful for me to look back on.

  • Great Video! Thanks for sharing with us! You make the most amazing videos! Hope all is going well for you this week!

  • Adam, instead of trying 2 set weekly goals of not binging or trying 2 lose another pound etc..... why don't u TRY 2replace those goals with trying 2 deal with which ever emotions u gather within on a day 2 day basis from whatever it is that gives u emotions or an emotion that day 4 the week. Ur feelings are the problem! U can't tolerate feelings, certain feelings! You're use 2 1 type of feeling, so whenever u gather in a feeling different than the 1 you're use 2 u don't kno how 2 process it in.

  • good lord jennifer, this reply makes me want 2 binge!

  • Your video was amazing! I've struggled with binge eating for so many years. I've often wondered if it's something I'll ever be able to control. Thanks for being so honest and putting your struggles out there!

    Mel

  • I am really impressed, you have a lot of balls to show tat you DID binge, and provide a lot of inspiration in the fact that you carried on.

    I think this is a normal way of living, yes not everyone binges, but come on, when a lot of people have bad days or go off plan I'm sure they would consume just as much at least calorie wise. No one's perfect - perfect isn't a nice way to live =]

  • You are fascinating. I also worry for you. Amazing video.

  • thanks for this adam...i've been going through this for the past three weeks also...we'll get through it...

  • Adam, this was the most compelling video I have ever seen. You made me tear up when I saw you binge, and turn around a pick yourself back up.

    I love you Adam. I really do. You are such an honest, genuine person.

    Thank you for being you.

    <33333 YOU, Amber

  • that means a lot to me amber, really.

    you have always been so kind to me... love you too!

    i am happy you liked the video.

  • No no... You must understand that I am everything. Sad, happy, angry, and growing - A life with many different emotions. I used to believe that everything would be better if I could just stop bingeing... Now I've accepted that I may have days where I turn to food for emotional reasons and that is OK... again, please focus on your own state and don't try to tell me that I am in any sense of denial. I am happy today and tomorrow I just might be depressed. This is life. This is being human.

  • I totally understand! I think what you need to do is to stop focusing on this eating disorder. Placing too much focus on it will keep you a victim...make you feel depressed and not normal. You have to start believing that you were once a normal eater and can get back to that. I am glad you do see normal binges as normal because they are. There is no such thing as "eating good" every single day for most people. It's life and food is meant to be enjoyed :) Food is not the enemy, remember that

  • Sorry 2 hear that u suffered anorexia. I'm glad u found help so early! ;o] But with Adam its just that he continues 2 speak in denial. I mean, he is saying 1 thing & saying another. Doing 1 thing & doing another. & I know that he can't help it because its the disorder in him, but ugh..... can he really not see that he is in denial? He claims that he is living a healthy lifestyle & is or has maintained his life etc, BUT how are u do so when every day of ur life is focusing on ur body & food!

  • I actually never found help early now, P8anut, I just got tired of starving lol Of course it went the other way with binging but now I am pretty tired of binging and it makes me feel gross inside.

    I understand what you said, that is why I think he really needs to stop focusing on food and weight...staying a victim to it. I read one of Adam's recent comment where he basically said he will have this disorder forever. No one can have that attitude otherwise you stay with your eating disorder!

  • P8anut, I don't think you are correct telling Adam how he feels. I've never been bulimic before but I have been anorexic 10 years ago for 6 months. I got through that somehow but fell back on binging on and off. I can say that I am binge free as of October. If you ask me had I binged, yes rarely (once a month) but never overboard. That IS life and I've accepted that it's normal which has helped me to not beat up myself. As a result, I am not imprisoned by any eating disorder. I feel so good!

  • Simply Amazing! :D Your high spirits through it all and honesty is so great!

  • Thank you. For this. For everything.

    beautiful <3

  • i binged one day out of fourteen and have maintained a healthy weight for over 8 months now. please do not pretend to know or understand my level of happiness or misery.

  • Maintaining the weight is the hard part. Through your binges, you were still able to maintain. That is just awesome! That should hopefully give you the reassurance you need without you resorting to the scale :) I find scales empowering at times, it can help you push through...but funny how it can make you feel like crap when it doesn't budge or moves the wrong direction! lol Keep up the good work!

  • By living a healthy lifestyle & diet etc..... means that you are eating right, on balanced, proper meal intakes, proper excersize. He doesn't eat normal meals several times aday, or if he even eats at all. I mean, come on you guys! I'm not trying to bash him or anything, but you guys are crazy to sit here continuously praising & feeding this bad disordered habit of his! U all know he has a problem & u all know he isn't losing or gaining weight the right healthy weight, yet u all are praising him

  • I think he will soon enough, p8anut. Give it time and don't push, it will happen in its own time. I finally dealt with it and realized that it was acceptance from others that I was after. Perhaps it's the same for some of the posters here.

  • I hope you know how great you are. Good luck with everything.

  • damn man that was a honest video I think you are doing a hell of a job. I was fricken cracking up and the whole rant about church I believe it was sooo funny.

    I am a youth pastor and had a lady come to our church with her son who was 13 and ask me. "my son says he is gay what should I do" I told her to except it love him and don't listen to the morons who say that it is a "sin" don't think she liked the answer as I never saw them agian but I pray for him everyday. Keep up the great work.

  • well thank god their are people in the church like you. if only there were more.

    i am happy to see you back here on youtube! hope you stay.

  • I love the fact that you were smiling everytime you excercised.

    This was a very clever & emotive piece. You are obviously very talented. Thank you for sharing.

  • OMG GOD! this video was Fantastic!

    wow i loved it 5 stars but if i could giveit 100 i would!!!!!!

    Im so happy for you!! : ) !!!

  • I hate those 7s

  • Seems like you did a pretty great job for 14 days! One or two out of 14 is nothing, you are doing great and are wonderfully entertaining!

  • I have to say this was one of the best I have seen in a while. <3

  • That was incredibly beautiful, Adam - imo the most wonderful thing you've ever created. I was so drawn in! Oh, and the music!

    I feel you've said something really profound in this, and yet you've also said nothing. It's beauty in its rawest form - with no definition.

    Thank you for being you, for making this, and for showing it to us. So happy for/proud of you!

    <3

  • Don't be sad, Adam. You should be proud. You've accomplished so much, and I think you look awesome just the way you are.

  • I need my photo on your fridge --- I'm proud of you Adam ... you're finding balance slowly!!

    ;)

  • very well done!

  • Adam...I appreciate your honestly and your comment about feeling full. I wonder if you have give that further though--what could replace that full feeling for you as "the best" feeling? Just a deeper question? The video was excellent. Glad to see you back in your element.

    Peace,Stacy

  • i have found a lot of alternatives through the last couple years to keep me turning to food for that "emaotional feeling" but there is still those times when NOTHING can compare of come close to that numb comfort I get when bingeing. I hate it.

    thanks for the comment!

  • I like the style of your video, I thought about doing something similar but I like your format better :D

    5 Stars!

  • awesome vlog, so interesting! great editing job :)

    5 Stars for you

  • i totally wanna copy this videoooo. this was fantastic.

  • Adam, this video was fantastic. Beautifully put together and so honest. You are leading a normal life. And you are very gorgeous! Now smile bitch x

  • don't be so hard on yourself... 1 out of 14 days seems like pretty good odds IMHO. i ate donuts the other day too. i was pretty pissed at myself, lol. fucking donuts. i really love this video concept... i kinda want to steal it, heh.

  • i am indeed proud, thanks for the love allison. and please steal away! i would love to see people document like this, good or bad.

  • ps- i like that your friend called you "true life adam" lol.

  • Wow! That video, quite poetic I must say, very nice. You'll do fine, bro, we all have our moments every now and then. We're all here for ya, my friend. Take care. =)

  • Confession: I ate 12 cookies on OSCAR night and then ran an 10k, this next day! I was binging with every bite.....with <3 from Canada Adam! =) R77

  • that was the best thing i have seen.

    i'm so happy you finished out the 2 weeks

    yay for you

    ♥ u

  • thank you! scary how my first instinct after making a mistake was to stop filming but i am glad I continued.

    much love my blushing bride!

  • I ♥ your style.

  • *gasp* Not only do we have the same camera...we have the same TRIPOD! OMG..I dunno what was frying in that pan, but it looks amazing. I loved this video, truly... You are epic. <3 you!

  • yay! i love my mino though it is so shaky!

    thanks for the love hun! -- and oh, it was cabbage, onions, and chestnuts in the pan. so so good!

  • Yes Adam We all hav ethem days. You are doing a great job at tryin to lead a normal life. One day ot of 14  Wow hat really is a great job.

  • I know that egg! :D Amazing concept. Sometimes I wish I had cameras in every corner of my house streaming live online JUST to keep me from binging. We share that horrible desire. I wasn't even 2 minutes in and I had tears streaming down my face because I know exactly what you mean when you say nothing else makes you feel like you do when you binge. You ARE finding common ground, and that IS normal life. I'm so proud of you, you are such an important person to me Adam <3

  • was hoping you would notice the egg ;)

    thank you for the kind words, it is frustrating knowing that i will probably never have a total grasp on the whole bingeing thing... but that is being human. life goes on. love you!

  • Nothing's wrong with you: you're human.

  • I struggle with self-sabotage too. Every time I'm doing really well I go on a binge and sabotage myself. It's a difficult difficult pattern to overcome but please don't be hard on yourself. You are wonderful for sharing. This video is beautifully done.

  • Keep your chin up... you're doing great!

  • I loved this, Adam, as you really show what so many of us struggle with week to week. Getting right back on plan instead of allowing a bad hour or day to turn into weeks or months of bad eating. Really well done :)

  • wow. this is a great video Adam. I love how you are staying positive at the end and i am very proud of you :)

    Even though you didnt reach your goals i still think you did a great job these past two weeks! I hope this next week goes great for you <3you

  • Adam... I now worship the ground you walk! I watched ur video and it made me feel better. If you watched my videos I've been on a plateu for 3 months....and this video made me feel better knowing that i've been maintaining and living my life!!!! <3 you Adam!!!! take care
