AH!! i love you! x3 sorry if thats weird.. but your video is just so AMAZING!!! oddly enough it made me feel really good about myself, you made such great points and the whole time i was watching this i had a smile on my face because you seem like such a great person. i wish i liked myself as much as you do. :3 you are beautiful and sweet and funny and just a really great person.
Though having said that, at least take a vitamin supplement to make sure your nutrition (or lack of) isn't causing or worsening you're depression etc.
I certainly wouldn't suggest trying to starve yourself or go on a ridiculous exercise regime! But making a half assed effort is better for your health than no effort at all; drinking more water, smaller portions more often, fruit instead of chocolate, wholegrain, walking etc...
Well that's what I do anyway...Good luck and stay awesome!!!
@meztini Thanks for your nice comment. And thanks for the advice. I am taking certain steps to improve my health, so at least I know I'm doing 'something'. It's not much, but like you say, it all helps.
The amount of people; often influenced by media and society; who think "if I could just... get that car/ look like her/ lose 10 pounds/ get a boyfriend etc, THEN I'd be happy!"
It absolutely does not work that way, and good for you for understanding that!
You need to start internally, you need to develop a HEALTHY sense of sense love before all of the external things will fit into place.
You make me laugh, you seem like such a sweetheart i wish we could hang out in person. You are definitely someone i wouldn't mind being seen with. ^.^
hahahaha you are amazing! funny, witty, amazing voice. if only people were like you. beauty comes from within and yours radiates right through you. you're beautiful and i'm glad you don't need the faceless's opinion.
Thank you. I am sick of living by the "your face is so pretty, only if" standard.
At 45 yes, I know I am fat. Yes, I want to be a bit healthier...however...I am SICK of living in a culture that thinks so poorly of my freaking fat.
To all of those who condemn: I'm not sure what is wrong with you, why you need to put others down...but calling me or any other person out for being fat will not make you any better. You might want to look for other options to make yourself feel better.
eat less fat and you WILL loose pounds, chunky people who say they stick to salad diets are full of bullshit! you might be happy with who you are, but you are going to have health problems
@farmski Did I at any point make it seem like I was unaware of this? I thought I made it perfectly clear that I'm aware of my weight being an issue, but honestly, it's just not the worst one in my life. On the list of my priorities, wight related health problems always ends up below the risk of taking my own life due to depression. My choice.
you know what is the quickest, safest most reliable not to mention cheapest antidepressant, EXERCISE!! its been tested and confirmed clinically.search "EXERCISE CURES DEPRESSION" due to endorphin release, also"YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT" instead of making YOUTUBE videos, go for a swim & run 3 times a week,actually work at it.I know what depression is,you want to see my wrists?your body wasn't designed to sit lazily doing nothing eating junk!we are still active hunter gatherers,
Wow... this was surprising. I've never heard someone ever admit that their weight and health-related lifestyle is their own choice but for most I believe it is. Every one who ever says anything about their weight relates to how terrible it is and how out of their control it is. I think more people need to adopt your hold on your own life and prioritize accordingly. If everyone took a greater responsibility, maybe there would be less of a victim mentality and more change for those who want it.
@GlowStickParadise This is exactly my point. If you're not aware of your problem, how will you change it? I know my weight it a problem. It's just not my biggest one, pardon the pun. ;o)
You are right. Your problems will not get better if you lost weight. I am anorexic and thought that if I was Super thin that I would be "happy"- yeah, right. Even now that I am gaining to a normal healthy weight I thought I would start to get happy as well- not the case either. Our weight does not define our happiness. People who are unhappy about their weight (besides health reasons) have deep seeded issues that need to be dealt with.
I understand. People aren't born fat though. They become fat overtime...... Just workout everyday on a treadmill for a hour and everytime increase the time and or speed. Just if you want to lose weight though:)
@ladydrace You're welcome. I can tell that you have a beautiful soul and are a nice person. You wouldn't act like some of these commentors and be mean to someone just to put them down. That's not right.
Cont: I am married to a wonderful man who overlooks my weight. Meaning, he sees ME for ME! My friends do too! I wanted to say "Thank you & God Bless you!" for not only making this video but for such true, inspirational words! You are a beauty just as much outside as you are IN! You have taught me a well needed lesson!! Blessings to you and your family!
Cont: Even if I lost the weight the loss that I had is still there. It will not change a thing. Sure, meds can make ya feel better, but some can put weight on ya! Society makes almost everything ok..but when a person is overweight, its b/c they "think" the person is lazy, stupid etc. The Bible says..beauty is on the inside. God looks at our hearts. Its sad that there are some that look at a person w/ weight and they get overlooked. I agree w/u Im tired of it too. I dont get it alot..but I have.
WOW! You are so so inspirational! Not long ago, someone said to me "You have a pretty face, but seems that all your issues seem to revolve around your weight." That comment made me feel like complete CRAP! I couldnt believe the nerve that someone wold actually say that! Tho truth is, people sadly do say some pretty messed up things! You are so right! It IS how you feel on the inside! I suffer from depression as well, but not due to my weight..from a loss.
@EbonyObscene Why are you lying. Your not doing any favors to anybody by telling them that. Do you actually think being fat and staring yourself in the mirror naked looks good? Up to a certain point both men and women look exactly the same with all the blubbler covering their male/female frame. Dont support being fat, instead encourage them to loose weight
@EbonyObscene but, (yes there is a but) if they are happy with who they are, fuck it, let it be (even if they look fatttttttttt) . Its the people who complain that piss me off
Anyone can lose weight, but the key is not to starve yourself. You need to get better food that is better for you. Being too thin can be unhealthy too though. Just keep that in mind.
i really love how you don't seem to care what other people think, because for some people it's all they think about. My little sister is 14 and like 90 pounds and tells me that she's fat...and it just makes me mad. love you!!!
You are exactly right when you say, that if a person loses weight they will still be exactly the same on the inside. I have been many different weights, I've been chubby, I've been skinny..been fat.. then back to chubby again and it is safe to say that on the inside I always felt the same. In fact when I've lost weight I still felt fat on the inside, I never felt that amazing self confidence that everyone says comes with weight-loss. We just need to learn to love ourselves how we are!
I was having an anxiety crisis when I found your video and I think your words where exactly what I needed to hear to feel betyer and a little less añon
@MsOneofMany Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. Know at least that you're not alone. A lot of us know exactly what you're going through. Good luck with finding the hope again.
