I don't know what I expected you to say, but this blew it all out of the water. . . you're so profound and inspiring and matter of fact about the whole tomorrow/monday syndrome. I'm so excited for you to be part of the channel!
i'm pretty sure tomorrow is my favorite word. i've gained 10 pounds in the past 2 months because of tomorrow. if you promise to kick your butt into gear i'm right there with you!!!! time to get the good feeling back!! :]]]]
Wow, the words that you use to describe the perpetual state of mondays is just so insightful into how I feel, and how I'm sure so many other people feel. All of these videos are so inspiring, and are actually what makes me get up and think about eating right and being healthy! So, so, so inspirational! You guys are all awesome!
Jude! I love your videos and I am so glad that you joined this channel too! You are so inspiring and honest that your honesty makes me believe I can loose my weigh too - though I kind of stopped and made no progress in a year. So keep up doing the videos and inspire people!
Awesome video, Jude. You hit the nail on the head so many times you could have helped me build a new house! Thanks for sharing your story and being so honest.
Jude, u rock. U know I'm behind you 100% whether you manage to achieve your goals, or whether the journey winds up being the point. U R a beautiful and powerful woman, who has already accomplished a world of good for yourself, overcoming battles most people can't imagine. I am proud of u, amazed by u and grateful for u every day, and I am so proud of you for putting yourself and your struggle out there to help others. I'll be here for u in any way u need me. U inspire me.
OMG Jude. I got the chills the entire time I watched this video~ I am in the same vicious cycle that you are in. Its so weird that i am not alone in this. Everything u said about the struggles u face..i face every single day!!! I am thankful that i found this channel. we can motivate each other, make our selves accountable. I am gonna join u ladies in the movement even tho i dont make videos. thank u for your story.
Sweetie, you definitely are not alone...i feel you on the eating thing! I thought I had a mental problem or something with food...I feel like i HAVE to eat sometimes just because i have to. I hate the full feeling i get even after I eat the smallest portion sizes...we are all here for each other. :) keep it up!
Jude! I am so, so happy to see you on this channel. I connect with your struggle the most, because it is basically where I am at. However, I know you'll reach your goal, just focus on the positive, and keep on working sweetheart. Good luck and thank you!
This is a wondeful video! It's really motivating and I'll be adding it to my favourites because it really inspirates me to start eating healthy, excercising, getting rid of acne and feel beautiful for once in my life.
... thats it... Im punishing myself... everything is going wrong around me, and its my fault, and its coincided with me gaining all of the weight i had lost.
IM PUNISHING MYSELF!!
THANK YOU JUDE
I love your channel, and i love that youre on here now!!
Good luck, and ill be watching each week and championing you as well as all the other gals!!
You are so beautiful. I always say I'm going to start this day..etc etc and it will turn into months...I also realize that I could have been close to goal. I don't know why I do that. There is quite a bit you have said that has hit home. I hope the best for you. Can't wait to watch your next video. Good Luck.
I can relate to this video completely! It is like you got into my head, and were speaking for me. I am currently a size 16, and that is the heaviest I have been and it's so depressing. I agree about the eating thing too, it's a love hate relationship and I don't know why I eat when I do. I cannot wait for more of your videos, you seem to be the most inspirational. =]
This was so inspiring- I'm so happy you're on this channel because you have some definite wisdom to impart. I love the whole concept of "perpetual tomorrow"- that's SO true, and I think I applies to so many things beyond even this.
Girl, at my heaviest I was at 328. I was so heavy, and I couldn't handle it anymore. That was when I finally decided to lose weight. I'm at 270 now. I still have a looooong way to go. I love exercising; food is my problem. LOL! I'm Puerto Rican, so I'm always making all types of spanish food. I love to eat.
hey jude, I feel u hun! I got engaged October 2008m my wedding is in December......SInce October Ive lost 30 pounds but need to loose 30 more, and for some reason im stuck!! its frustrating the hell out of me...u guys r so encouraging...I LOVE U ALL FOR THIS CHANNEL!!!
you are so incredible and honest and ahh, i'm so glad you are on this channel. i love all of you girls so much for doing this. not really trying to lose weight, i guess? or at least trying to not let myself. maybe more of that "feel beautiful/love myself" stuff. <333
You are such a wise lady :) There were a few moments during this vid when I was just looking down and nodding, "that's what I do"... "yup, that's me"...
ummm idont wan to say it like in harsh way to the others girls ... BUT U R THE MOST HOUNST, u r just too inspring and talked to my heart ! i am subscribing because of u !
i feel the exact same way you do about the whole punishing myself thing... you have really inspired me.. and honestly this channel could not have come along at a better time. i just recently gained some weight back as well.. and have lacked the inspiration to take it +more off... now i have that inspiration! thank you so much.. i think ill go for a morning bike ride now! :D
I am the same with the perpetual state of "tomorrow" or "Monday." I am constantly catching myself thinking that and I need to stop. I really think you're going to help me to do that. I am so glad you've been added to this channel!
I have to say...you have the most beautiful voice! I think I could listen to you talking for hours. :D It's very soothing. You also are a very talented speaker! You really have a way with words and putting them together in an inspiring way. :)
I'm EXACTLY the same as you - a born procrastinator. everything can be done "tomorrow" - i don't even mean just losing weight, but everything from schoolwork to tidying my room! Losing weight has been the longest though - i've been planning to do it for so long, always planning to be thin for this event or for that new school year. i never get around to it though. i'm hoping this channel will help me actually START what i want to do, and keep at it, because i'm seeing all of you do it too. :)
I'm really glad I took the time to watch this video as I've been in verrry similar situations. You've definitely inspired me, Jude! And I can definitely relate to the "oh, I'll do it tomorrow" syndrome. Haha I'm all too familiar with it.
You are very inspiring. You talk about the feeling of extra weight instead of the image thing as much. I think you are beautiful, but unless you have that feeling of health you won't be completely satisfied. You can do it, you have done it before!
ur such a great speaker. u take the time to think about wut ur gonna say before u say it and i love that there is a weekend!! this needs to get 4 whole freakin stars!!
i always say i will start Monday or ill do it tomorrow... i must say, this channel opened my eyes to weight loss in a positive way because of you seven girls...thank you!!
I feel like I can relate to you even though our stories are different. Thank you so much for sharing and being so honest... You're definitely an inspiration.
i have had an eating disorder for all my life 28 and in a size im unhappy about but i wanted to tell u about this book it helped me understand a few things !!
Making a Change for Good: A Guide to Compassionate Self-Discipline (Paperback)
by Cheri Huber (Author)
its wonderful and helps ....as well thanking ur body(fat) for protecting u and that it is ok for it to leave now that u are safe and un needing of the weight and meditate on losing the cords to the weight
your story is a lot like mine. my dad got cancer and i lost it. i am one that live in tomorrow. thank you for leting us know the struggles that you have with your own weight. i have been looking for inspiration and you are verry inspireing to me i am also a fan of your makeup tutorials. thank you
Jude, you are an incredible addition to this channel. You really do have a way with words that captures the thoughts and feelings of so many of us watching.
Thanks for being not only encouraging but empowering as well! = } Take care.
I've said this to you before, Jude, and I'll say it again: YOU EMPOWER US. It's like you picked everything I've had in my head since I was a little kid and verbalized it in under 10 minutes. Thanks for the inspiration....xo
Just wanted to say, I completely follow you on that punishment-eating thing. I never thought about it, but when you said it, it totally made sense. Thank you for opening my eyes! A couple of months ago I joined my local gym, and this time I want it to last, so off to the gym..... =)
Great Video Jude!! I can really really relate to pretty much EVERY word you said. Your very inspiring, Im glad your part of this channel, looking forword to your next video :) -Robin
I'm so glad to see you here.....I always watch you MU vids and you are beautiful and talented~ I struggle with weight ALOT also! In 3 months I was off track I gained 11# and now am back on track.....lost 2# last week. IT's always super hard~ I am relating to so many things you have said~ Good luck in your journey, you can do it! :-)
I'm so glad you are joining this channel. I've always been a big fan of yours, and thanks for sharing your amazing story. Your an awesome person, Jude.
cheers to health!!!! i exercise, eat healthy not for vanity reasons....people dont believe me when i say that....but honestly i do it for my health, to live a fit and fun and longer life........i grew up watching my mom suffer a lot health wise because she did not give priority to a healthy life style...and it did affect us as kids ........thank you very much for this video.
girl, remember that belly weight is the easiest to get rid of. LOTS OF CARDIO, lots of substituting: start eating fiber rich foods INSTEAD of(not along with) chips, cookies, etc. cardiocardio. the more you eat, the more you gotta work out. start skowly with the exercise and you will never stop working out. believe me. good luck! you're so pretty!
Hi Jude, thanks for sharing. Your vicious cycle is my vicious cycle. One of the important ways this channel might hold you accountable is being gentle with yourself. Sometimes we don't give ourselves a chance to do better because we come down so hard on ourselves when we percieve failure. We need someone to cut across our inner dialogue and tell us 'that's not true' or 'you don't have to look at it that way'. I hope you find a real support here. I know you'll inspire others <3
I think so far you are the most inspirational one of them all- not that I don't <3 the rest of the lovely ladies its just something about your character.
Hey Jude, in time, when you get tired of being tired, of being tired..you will loose the weight and keep it off..but first you have to ask yourself why?? and be honest..Why do I gain weight?? Why did I put on the Weight..Keep a food dairy and a Journal of what you are going through..a lot of times we, meaning women eat out of our emotions..I gained weight last summer 30lbs because my heart got broken and I felt like a failure and I felt I was not worthy of LOVE..
I loooove hearing your voice. And you're such a sweet, smart and beautiful women. Just good luck Jude.. good luck! I belive in you with all my heart <3
well it depends how you lost the weight because she did mention she was working out and muscle is heavier than fat, so she could have built muscle and lost fat.
when you lose enough weight to drop like 10 sizes like that - chances are you aren't gaining like 40 lbs of muscle unless you are trying to become a body builder. I think she just obviously carries her weight right in the midsection.
First off: I only discovered your main channel yesterday so I thought it was cool you popped up here!
Most importantly, though.. Wow. What an amazing video! Everything you said rings really true for me. "There's always tomorrow" and the heartburn and punishing yourself with food.. And I loved that you said about being healthy and FEELING beautiful and being happy with where you are as the motivation.
I describe my body type as a lollipop when I gain weight...and my heartburn acts up as well. I think I relate to you the most. I'm glad you've joined this channel and I'm pulling for you :]
your voice is so calming to hear...lol *random* must say i do relate to you, i always think "oh i'll start running tomorrow" and stuff like that but i never do...i dont think i can find the patient or strenght to.u shouldnt punish yourself - if youre not happy u gotta change it coz u can change! :D i hope this channel will give you what you need to be better "next monday" :b
so true,beauty comes in every way, but if u dont feel good or beautiful about yourself,it wont work...
once upon a time you said some really nice things to me (about a year ago probably) in a LJ community when i was feeling pretty down about myself ...
so here i am to return the favor. you are beautiful, inside and out, and i hope that through this project (which is fantastic, btw) you will feel as beautiful as the rest of us know you are! good luck lady, you can do it!
I am So glad you are on here Jude. I soooo feel the same way that you do to the T. Thank you again for joining this channel. Good Luck ...you just inspired me to lose and I'm a size 26 so I'm ready!!!
YAY Jude! I am so excited that you are doing this. You seem so interesting. Well best of luck in your weight loss journey. Be kind to yourself and be smart.
I miss, Jude :-(

LOTS OF CARDIO, lots of substituting: start eating fiber rich foods INSTEAD of(not along with) chips, cookies, etc. cardiocardio. the more you eat, the more you gotta work out. start skowly with the exercise and you will never stop working out. believe me. good luck! you're so pretty!

Hi Jude, thanks for sharing. Your vicious cycle is my vicious cycle. One of the important ways this channel might hold you accountable is being gentle with yourself. Sometimes we don't give ourselves a chance to do better because we come down so hard on ourselves when we percieve failure. We need someone to cut across our inner dialogue and tell us 'that's not true' or 'you don't have to look at it that way'. I hope you find a real support here. I know you'll inspire others <3

I think so far you are the most inspirational one of them all- not that I don't <3 the rest of the lovely ladies its just something about your character.
Oh, and for me too- tomorrow never comes :P

Hey Jude, in time, when you get tired of being tired, of being tired..you will loose the weight and keep it off..but first you have to ask yourself why?? and be honest..Why do I gain weight?? Why did I put on the Weight..Keep a food dairy and a Journal of what you are going through..a lot of times we, meaning women eat out of our emotions..I gained weight last summer 30lbs because my heart got broken and I felt like a failure and I felt I was not worthy of LOVE..

I feel so related to you, honestly...I could cry when I listened to you for how you feel.

Are you very short?
I once lost almost 100 lbs and went from a size 26 to 16 so hearing that you lost 65 and went from a 32 to 14 seems crazy to me.

well it depends how you lost the weight because she did mention she was working out and muscle is heavier than fat, so she could have built muscle and lost fat.

when you lose enough weight to drop like 10 sizes like that - chances are you aren't gaining like 40 lbs of muscle unless you are trying to become a body builder. I think she just obviously carries her weight right in the midsection.

First off: I only discovered your main channel yesterday so I thought it was cool you popped up here!
Most importantly, though.. Wow. What an amazing video! Everything you said rings really true for me. "There's always tomorrow" and the heartburn and punishing yourself with food.. And I loved that you said about being healthy and FEELING beautiful and being happy with where you are as the motivation.
What a great video.

I describe my body type as a lollipop when I gain weight...and my heartburn acts up as well. I think I relate to you the most. I'm glad you've joined this channel and I'm pulling for you :]

your voice is so calming to hear...lol *random* must say i do relate to you, i always think "oh i'll start running tomorrow" and stuff like that but i never do...i dont think i can find the patient or strenght to.u shouldnt punish yourself - if youre not happy u gotta change it coz u can change! :D i hope this channel will give you what you need to be better "next monday" :b
so true,beauty comes in every way, but if u dont feel good or beautiful about yourself,it wont work...
well, g'd luck!
