AYOOO!! My name is Stephanie Buttermore and in a few words I am a fitness enthusiast but a scientist at heart!
Just obtained my Ph.D. in pathology and cell biology with a research focus on the molecular mechanisms that drive ovarian cancer progression. Hope you stick around! xoxo
Because of you guys, I was brave enough to post this video ❤️ I almost scrapped it because I wasn't feeling my best, but I know you guys are with me no matter what I look like right now 🙏 THIS IS ME IN ALL HER GLORY!! Life goes on and I can't just quit doing me just because I look a little different! SO here we are and I'm doing my thing!!! Don't forget to check out the description box for all the details on my new program! I've worked so hard on this and it's the quality and value you should expect from me, I know you will love it! Love you guys so much, I wouldn't be here without you 💋
Stephanie Buttermore KEEP CRUSHING IT GIRL WE LOVE U❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amazing video. More power to you.
You inspire others like me to be real!!! Girl you are so awesome. And beautiful! Thank you
You are motivating me so much as well! My recovery is going great and that's also thanks to you 😘
You are bee-youuuuu-tiful!! You're killing it on this journey! Such an inspiration! ALSO where did you get the baby blue top?? I loooooooooove it on you! Want! 😍
Imagine all the women who hate themselves every time they gain even a small bit of weight. Talking about weight gain in such a positive light, is so healing!
It's f*cking unhealthy. Stop glorifying that bolimic habit
Samuel Thompson do you know the reason behind all of her weight gain....?
@@sillybrap213 she has no self-control and hides her bad eating habits with a bubbly attitude
@@Fitness00177 so hateful. Go to therapy. Find some compassion
@@zeldaafitz Adele, I really like Stephanie and her videos but Arnold may not be wrong. Its highly likely she has a eating disorder. Most fitness models do! On top of that she has been eating junk throughout her fitness career but now decides to go all in and gain 30 lbs in 2 months. That's a huge increase for her body weight in a very short time.
*_Just dropping by to say even with gaining 30 lb you still look good inside and out_*
THANK YOU!!! 😭🙏That means so much to me!!!
Amen!!!! I love her like this!
Right?!?! she's glowing!!!
@@StephanieButtermore girl you look good thank God you gained weight 😊
I doubt her internal organs look good
“I’m kinda different now. But I kinda like her.”
That really hit me hard. As someone going through physical and emotional transformations, it is encouraging to see someone else loving themselves during times of change. Thank you for inspiring women to care for their health and, most of all, care about themselves.
Thing is she's not fat by any means. She was unhealthy when she was super skinny.she wasn't fit lol.she looks sexier now too with nice ass still flat stomach so this is just vanity
She’s actually doesn’t. Go look at her Instagram. She constantly says how she hates the way she looks and how she is self conscious looking like “a whale”. Her words. This is approach is not healthy for someone who has a body image disorder.
@@John_smith118 lol
@@John_smith118 I think she likes what the fat has done to her but not how it looks.
I think a lot of people are still missing the point of the "All in" diet which is basically eating intuitively. People are still attached to "she still looks good" or "well, she's not that fat just a little thicc". No, it's not about your appearance, it's about allowing your body to be at it's natural weight. This does not take into account societal weight standards. So please, if you're still trying to compare yourself to her--don't. Your weight will be different from hers. The point is to not restrict yourself and to have a good relationship with food. Eat when you're hungry. It's a simple concept, but I promise you, it'll make food so much more enjoyable.
If she really follows her natural body weight, she'll be thin
Food should be about nutrition not enjoyment. Thats one thing i dislike about western society. There are many things to do for joy. Our bodies will always want to have and hold on to weight but modern society doesnt need fat on our bodies to survive impending periods of famine.
YOU LOOK SO CURVY, FEMININE AND HEALTHY, I LOVE IT, YOU GO GIRL 😭❤️
THIS BUTT IS EVERYTHING !!! She looks sooo freaking good
THANK YOU!!! 🥰😭❤️
I love the new you. It's made me feel better about my body. It's made me realize that it is okay to not be 115-125lbs. I'm in the 150's and I am stronger than ever.
Valine Fisher yessssss
YES
🙌🏽🙌🏽
I wish I was like you I am 6ft tall male and weight 145lbs,but not skinny but shredded
Yessss same
you look so much better bc you can tell you’re so much physically healthier even mentally ! good for you 😭 this is the kind of motivation we need
Watching these vids have showed me how disordered my relationship with food is. I’m so obsessed with food it’s ridiculous. I’m making it my 2020 goal to have a positive relationship with food and with myself and my body image.
I'm rooting for you! I went into 2020 with the same mentality due to a very big wake up call about my health and the lack of my ability to do things. I've always blamed my metabolism at being why I couldn't gain any weight but became clear so many months later that it was my poor relationship with food and the lack of having any activity in my life.
im trying to recover rn
Okay so...personally I feel like this is the best I've ever seen you look. I know there's a lot of stigma around weight gain, but you are still fit and healthy and you LOOK SO GOOD AND HEALTHY OMG! You always look great, but damn girl...looking amazing.
NINA!!! THANK YOU!! SO SWEET! 😭💕
TOTALLY agree :D
I totally agree !
Agreed!
YES. I TOTALLY AGREE. SHE LOOKS AMAZING AND HAPPY.
It melted my heart when u said that you are happy. Girl you are giving us so much inspiration.
This really helped me a lot.I was never naturally really thin but I was never overweight.Last year I was depressed and the fact that some of my friends were really skinny made me feel like my body wasn't good enough.I became so unhealthy and lost a lot of weight in a very short time...I started to look sick an i felt that way too...When courantine started I gained weight and felt bad about it at first.Then I took some time for myself and started loving my body and the way it naturally looks...and this video helped me even more.
I'm so proud of you! Learning to love yourself can be difficult for some people, which is why it's so amazing that you've learned how to do that
you didn’t like the way you looked in the footage of the gym but i thought you looked absolutely amazing!!!
I didn't think it was possible but you look even prettier and so much happier! Props to you Stephanie
Your energy seems so different. Like you really seem happier and your body in the workout footage looks so good ❤️❤️❤️
>Thin & lean
Gains & curvy
Transforms into a pterodactyl
This is sooo cute!!! Thank you for your refreshing positivity❤️❤️❤️
Can I just say watching these exercises being performed by someone who’s body actually looks like mine has CHANGED THE GAME FOR ME!!!! I can finally see how MY body is supposed to move, not someone with a shredded body and defined muscles. It makes SO MUCH MORE SENSE NOW and the representation makes me feel so good. This is 100% going to be my next workout.
So you've accepted that being fat is ok.
you're a horrible person. get that negativity out of here@@ronl9357
ron l and you’ve accepted being disrespectful and rude is okay
Ron, you’re right. Thank you for making me see the light. I don’t know what I would do without men like you replying to my TH-cam comments.
@@laurenm1477
I'm glad I could help.
I've been gaining lots of weight too lately due to anorexia recovery and it's really hard obviously but this is so inspirering and keeps me going just seeing your amazing body and happy face is so motivating
Keep fighting and I wish you a good recovery from this eating disorder that I had too
I gained 10kg in one year, that was crazy but I definitely needed. I managed to find my ideal body in a weight that I did never thought about
I hope and wish you to find a weight in which you feel good yourself but also healthy 😄
Romy Ohara Thank you ❤️😭
I gained 10kg since Christmas 2018. Note that literally nobody has commented on it. Some people didn’t even notice except for my parents. People aren’t focused on you, they’re too busy worrying about themselves. Hopefully that gave you a bit of comfort
cameleon 2014 same
I've gained a considerable amount of weight and at about 129lb.. the most I've ever hit was 119 with a LOT of muscle. Ive been yo-yoing between 85-105lb for the last 10 ish years.. depression, anxiety, stress.. and just living with really bad eating(or lack thereof) habits and bad sleeping. I'm trying to appreciate the weight gain but it's definitely fat.. and my clothes/bras not fitting much, especially during my cycle bc I expand every where.. especially my chest. It's extremely noticable how unwell my wardrobe sits on me. .. #OnlySocks/Panties fit. I'm just trying to level out and eat more consistently.
Mom: go to bed
Me: Can’t I’m watching my personal trainer
And because of YOU, at 48, I am finally feeling free from the shame and guilt surrounding food, body imperfections, and comparing myself to other women. You are beautiful when you are healthy, whatever that means for you. Thank you for teaching me to drop the chains that have been holding me hostage for years. We love you, Stephanie!
It is so refreshing to hear someone speak positively about gaining weight! This is what fitness is supposed to be about, not starving yourself and harming your body to stay at a low body fat percentage. As someone struggling with their weight, this was really helpful to watch! Thank you!!!!
Tori Engler Riight!!!
@LeeroyJenkins I agree that overeating is just as bad as starving, however Stephanie isn't overeating. She's just eating until she is satisfied. She isn't overweight, and will probably end up losing some weight anyways after her body gets back to "normal".
@@toriengler7862 isn't that how is started with tess holiday hahaha...
@@sanctuaryism No because unlike Tess Holliday, Stephanie practices self control and right now her weight is starting to plateau as she suspected would happen.
hahaha what they all say.
I love this new Stephanie. You look so happy, bright and energetic.
BTW, I love the little girl talk, it made me feel like you were my friend just casually talking to me. Would it be possible to have a mini-series called "Girl Talk with Stephanie"? Most of the female fitness youtubers are just focusing on growing a booty and it is kinda boring when that's all they talk about.
Yes to girl talk!
Yasss I love that idea ❤️
I've never watched one of your videos until like 20 minutes ago. I saw your dear 2019: the year I gained weight video and then this one. I just want to say that I think you look absolutely amazing right now, especially compared to back then. I'm one of those people who has been skinny my whole life, and when I joined a workout challenge program to cut 5% of my body fat, I got muscular and was even thinner, but I realized that I was just too skinny. So I too am trying to put on some weight while gaining muscle and I love that you're doing the same thing. Just like I think I look better with a little more weight, I think you do too. You are absolutely stunning at the weight that you're out now and you look so much healthier than those videos you showed small clips of. If I saw those videos before I honestly would have thought twice about watching, but seeing you are on a similar path as me and that you are looking to be happy and healthy while looking good, that makes me want to watch more videos that you have. I know I wasn't there for any of your stuff before your all in journey (because I didn't know about you), but I'm all in for supporting you and watching you achieve your goals with this new lifestyle. I love it! ❤️ And don't you worry about the lighting in the gym! You look phenomenal, girl 😁👍🏼
same
As someone struggling through recovery from an ED, you are such an inspiration. You look stunning and confidence and happiness radiates through you.
steph! you look incredible and it's definitely noticeable that you're more energetic and enjoying yourself more than before.
you looked just as incredible in the gym footage as usual, trust me.
so proud that you kept going even though you didn't feel your best, you're such an inspiration!
Booty gains, and mental gains. I appreciate you and look up to you!
I just want to say, while I was watching the gym scene of you working out, I actually was thinking to myself that you looked really good. It gave me joy to see how happy and healthy you're looking rn. Thank you, for doing this because you're giving so many people a better view point on their relationship with food and weight. Watching you become the healthy, strong, and, the happy woman you're becoming is helping me to have a better out look on my body and food. I'm sure it is helping many others as well. So, thank you!
Girl, you look amazing! I gained 60 pounds in my own eating disorder recovery.. It's been really hard to deal with but it's nice to see other you tubers talk about overshoot and weight gain ♥️
I LOVE YOU STEPHANIE!!! I have struggled with fighting bulimia while trying to be fit for 15 years and your videos are giving me the courage to accept myself!!! I think you are so beautiful at your current weight, and it makes me think that I can be beautiful at a healthy, full weight, too!!! And it makes me feel like it's okay to love fitness even if I'm not super skinny... I can get strong with you without triggering my binge/purge cycles by trying to diet down too much. THANK YOU FOR GOING ALL IN!!!
Was about to write the Same, feel you!
Heather Prayers you stay strong and love yourself! Being skinny is just not the thing anymore! Being healthy is good for overall health!! Best wishes.
I suffered EDs including Bulimia for over 20 years and I am free now!!! I pray for you. You can do it!!!!
Christine Lee Can I ask how/what helped you recover? x
@@Radisgrek Hi Grace. It took a long time and it is a process. I did and still do a lot of different things -I have incorporated nutritional dense foods (both whole foods form and "processed aka powder" form and highest quality minerals and vitamins, I practice yoga/light workout (no intense workout for me as it affects my hormones), I meditate and pray (my relationship with God is very important to me), support from your loved ones. I can go on and on lol.
Always happy to talk to you more if you are interested. Love.
Stephanie I just wanted to tell you how much of impact your videos have had on me. As a person who has struggled with an eating disorder for years, seeing someone who I admire find happiness regardless of weight has really moved me. Thanks so much for sharing your journey!
Totally agree!!!! 💗💗💗
Women have lots of body changes in their life. Fertility for women means carrying more fat than men, obviously, so hormones and anatomy predispose us to change from puberty to middle age.
We are built to nourish and deliver babies. Yet, it's also women who shoulder a lot of body and beauty social expectations and end up dieting and seesawing. You're constantly told what we should look like no matter if we just had a kid or of we need to rest and focus on other aspects of our life.
Many women experience weight fluctuations and even different weight distribution according to age and other factors. I've found it's healthy and wise to accept your body throughout your life, not just when you're at the lowest weight or the most young and perky. That will change but with the changes comes beautiful things like children and rest and relationships. Life isn't about how you look, I'm all for health and yes, you can form your body too! but accept the aging process and all that life brings that may make your body look different. ❤️
I have never understood why people think only women are confronted with beauty standards. A lot of men in Hollywood movies look like bodybuilders and pretend to be natural while a lot of them obviously took some sort of anabolic substances. Best example: Dwayne Johnson. Only a fool would think he's natural. And Christian Bale when he went from extremely skinny 55 kg in The Machinist to 90 kg Batman in 6 months? Ridiculous!
And it's the same with all other male Fitness TH-camrs. In fact, us men are rarely able to tell if a person takes steroids or not unless it's really obvious. They can claim whatever the hell they want. We can believe them or not. In the end everything that counts is our own goals. And that is the actual difference between most men and most women. Most women care too much about what other people think about them. Only very few have enough of that "I don't give a fuck"-attitude.
@@lgeiger I never would say that only women experience expectations around body image. I don't believe that to be true. However, I think that women's value often lies in her looks much more than men who can balance their social value with other things. The expectation on men is just as big and weighty. But here we are talking about a specific topic. Ok
@@4Distractiononly Most expectations around women's looks are put on women by other women. Sure, men appreciate these features that are over exaggerated by media and society but most men will still be attracted to a 'normal' girl anyways. The 'ideal' woman is just a fantasy. Fun to watch and imagine playing with but when it comes to who men want to be with, she ain't it unless there is more to her than just her looks
@@kelzreallife8293 exactly. women expect this from women, men don't need you to be overly think we don't ask for huge tits most men don't even like it. we don't ask you to wear wigs or take weave and no man has ever said i need the woman to have nails on point and expensive make up or whatever. this is litterally pressure women put on women.
@@lgeiger I find it too easy to say that women just don't have the right attitude when these beliefs that there is something wrong with our bodies are already commonplace for 8-year old girls. 8! So how do we just grow into dismissing it when it is part of what we are taught from being children?
The issue is so much bigger than making it about personal responsibility and I would say this comment is part of the perception problem around negative body-image and how it is created. Especially since we do not need opinions: there's decades worth of research done on this! Men and women do not internalize societal ideals on beauty to the same degree, it affects women more and that's why it fuels various appearance-based billion dollar industries aimed at "helping" women improve their looks.
I love you for doing this. I went through this myself, gym rat, loved my body, restrictive diet, yet always hungry. Finally, said "i want to eat" let myself eat whatever I wanted, gained weight, cried because I was gaining weight, but wanted to eat. I wanted more food! It's hard to see your body bigger and wider. Its depressing when you cant fit in your clothe anymore. It was hard when everyone was telling me I was letting myself go. People could not understand, "I just want food"
LOVE YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING THIS OUT THERE!
I am finally comfortable and satisfied. I no longer feel restricted.
I think so many people in the fitness industry end up with eating disorders.
im in this stage at the moment. so many years of restriction. and now sad about weight gain, but there's a mental block in my head now that says no, no more restricting. i want to eat!
Your not feeling as hungry anymore is SO AMAZING. You did this for you and it looks like it's working. Going all in is currently your fitness goal and you are crushing it. Keep it up!!
I honestly feel like your 30lb weight gain has proportioned out very well... so many girl strive to have those 🦵 and 🍑... lol. You’re still as beautiful inside and out!!! ❤️
I’m gonna
@@nearlystuck6947
I would kill to have my face in it.
Right! My weight goes in ALL the wrong places. Lol she is blessed.
I don't normally comment but this time I just have to.
What you're doing is absolutely incredible. It is so mentally and physically difficult to see your body get bigger, especially when you are cast in front of thousands of people. I struggle to even be on a minor surplus for muscle gain simply because I get worried over water retention, and tummy bloat, so to see you fully listen to your needs, keep your motivation in the gym, and continue to be vulnerable by showing us the new you, it's the most inspiring thing I've seen from the online fitness community.
Keep it up girl, you are making a real impact on the people watching, I can't wait to watch more of the process!
yep this is what i did in eating disorder recovery - its amazing how similar our stories are, my period was the benchmmark for my health and how my doctor described it was like hitting a second puberty. you gain a whole bunch of weight rapidly and almost swell everywhere then eventually even out. live for your health
You have never been so real and so alive, comparing to your videos about 3 months ago, I must prefer the new Stephanie!!
Food - what you want, when you want it - can do that ☺️
it makes me feel so confident to see a fitness model gaining weight publicly. (i hope that didnt come off wrong)
You are a beautiful and strong person inside and out, your intelligence and drive are inspiring. Im so glad I found your channel because everything you share, pre and post all-in makes me feel more comfortable in my own skin somehow. Thank you for sharing your journey!
I couldn't relate to how slim she was in her previous videos. I've struggled with anorexia, bulimia and disordered thinking around food since I was 17. Im 43 now. Watching you take the risks to gain to get fully satiated was inspiring, motivating and you've gained a subscriber for life.
Girl, you look so good! You dont AT ALL look worse now than you did shredded, I swear. Your skin is glowing and you seem so energetic and healthy now. And your ass be poppin, obviously. Even my husband agreed, maybe a little too enthusiastically. 🙄
I started this process about a month before you.and When you started ,it was so validating for me that I was on the right track. I’ve been a restrictive eater for 30 years and I just didn’t have another diet in me honestly. I’m 4 months in and 50lbs up from my lowest weight. I’m feeling pretty self conscious about my appearance but Im trying to embrace it and just be my authentic self. I guess if you don’t focus on the weight at all you can recover faster and reach your set point weight sooner? Hardest thing I’ve ever done and I give you a lot of credit for your courage to follow through to this point. Stay strong Stephanie you’re not alone in this and you’re helping so many people who are literally dying to be “healthy and fit “. Sending my love and support 💗
You still look very pretty and beautiful. Enjoy the food and take care! ☺️
I've just discovered your channel and have binged a couple videos and I wanted to say thank you. Thank you for being honest. Thank you for being real. Thank you and your man for talking about the "dark" side of bodybuilding and your struggles with body image. I'm by no means a competitor and I'm a fair-weather lifter with no real motivation but I think about my body image every waking moment of every day and it is so validating that a verified Fitgirl shares some of my struggles.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I can't say it enough.
P.S.: This is my first TH-cam comment ever. I have never been moved enough to share my thoughts with any creative. You are obvi very smart, beautiful, and have made an important contribution to the world. 💕💕💕 Thanks again! -Morgan
I love how transparent you are!! It’s honestly such a breathe of fresh air from the other fitness you tubers. Seriously!!! Ily 💕

@@denisedeharenne1270 Haha yes!! #FRIENDS
in my personal opinion, you’re looking better than ever. but more importantly, you’re looking happier than ever and you seem so genuine in the way you speak. i wish you all the best on your journey. 💙
"Imperfections" from the lighting?? Hunni WHERE?
That’s exactly what I was thinking!
How big or small or skinny or fat or lean you are has nothing to do with how articulate you and your videos are. I do not mind at all. In fact, I appreciate you experimenting with your own body to provide the community the most valuable knowledge I could ever ask for. Thank you so much. You are such a strong mentally and physically young lady. I applaud you.
Real talk......you look so healthy and strong now. This is the realistic look of female fitness. The competition shredded look may look good in the bright gym lights or on a competitive stage but in truth it looks really unhealthy walking down the street if you get what I am saying. Keep doing what you doing, cause obviously it's working for you. Also never be embarrassed for the way you look now, you are beautiful! And it kinda goes without saying that Jeff is a lucky man, because your glutes are looking like ...... POW!🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️👍👍👍👍👍
Corey Massey this is exactly what I wanted to say. Completely agree! 👊🏻👌🏻
Oana I agree but you can't write off all skinny people as unrealistic. I know people who can't eat this much and work out just as hard and are very fit and healthy and don't get hungry eating fewer calories. Everyone is just different and Steph just craves more food but still feels good and looks great. I just wouldn't go so far to say people who are thinner are unrealistic. I mean I'm 6'3" 185lbs and I eat less than steph and still feel fine every day. I have a very low body fat percentage but for my sport it's very important to be lean and I don't mind sustaining the diet and training needed to achieve that. Everyone is just different and should do whatever works for them to feel they comfortable in their body
@Oana
This is one of.....if not the biggest problems within the fitness industry.....so many people are after the shredded look but don't realize that building muscle requires you to get thicker. The actual science behind bodybuilding and weight training is about balancing big muscles with healthy fat composition. It's about eating to build muscle then dieting to shred away EXCESS fat. The keyword being "excess". It is unhealthy or borderline unhealthy to be sub 10% body fat, and many scientists argue that the ideal range for women is 15- 20%. Less than that and your hormones will revolt against you.
This is why, at least with classic physique and body building competitors they are not walking around show ready 24/7 365. Since they are athletes, most natural bodybuilding and physique competitors will bulk up to build muscle within a healthy range of body fat then diet down to within a healthy range of body fat to keep the aesthetic look of fitness. When its showtime, then they will take those extreme steps to get to contest weight and body fat percentage. But right after......they immediately go back to the healthy range. If you never plan on stepping onto a competition stage, then you should never aim to get lower than the healthy range of body fat. And if you want big glutes and quads (which seems to be the trend these says), you have to realistically expect that you are going to thicker than the super shredded competition ready athlete. The key is all about balance and I'd argue that both extremes (low body fat and high body fat) are unhealthy lifestyles.
@@zukokurama just because it's a "sport" doesn't make it healthy. 🤷
@@zukokurama
The point I was making is that aesthetic appearance is not the same as Health and overall fitness. This discussion needs to be had with the fitness community. The way a person looks is not a good indicator of that persons health and overall fitness. I think the point that was being made here is not specifically about aesthetic appearance but more the health factor. It is important to understand that there is a distinct difference between looking "skinny" and being at an abnormally low body fat percentage. People often confuse the two as the same thing, but that is untrue.
From a health perspective, a sustained low body fat percentage can lead to massive hormonal imbalances, eating disorders, organ failure among many other negative side effects. This is different than looking "skinny" which is simply that your body weight is proportioned well for your height. Understanding that "skinny" does not necessarily mean healthy is important because it takes the goal off being "skinny" at all cost and replaces it with being at a healthy body fat percentage for your height and weight. I hope that makes sense.
Imo the new Steph looks a lot better, healthier and definitely seems happier. Love it!
Stephanie!! you are such a legend!! I have and still struggle with my relationship with food and you proof me every single time it's okay and need to fight this toxic relationship!!
LOVE LOVE YOU
Sometimes youtubers can be really annoying and full of themselves. It's really easy to then call them out
However, you spread sooooo much positivity and are sooooo damn likable I couldn't think of 1 single thing bad I could write. Amazing video love to see you. You being this happy I think really makes your viewers happier
Your honesty is more empowering, inspiring and healthy than ripped low body fat could ever be. Your are so lucky for having Jeff, but he is soooooo lucky for having you. You freakin go girl. Thank you so much. Xxx
No she's not empowering anyone. She's literally selling her exercise program which literally stopped her period. Wtf?
Woke Nepali it didn’t stop her period, it was because of the combination of her diet AND her workout program that lead her to a too low of a fat %; she clearly said that she had her period when she was lean
If you think that such a program would cause you to get HA you can always choose to up your food intake or make any other changes according to your needs. No need to tear her down, I’m sure she only has the best intentions
@@chiaravalizadeh955 Yeah, the best intentions to scam people.
@@wokenepali8376 wow it shows you don't watch her videos
@@scorpiolove2729 It shows that I have watched her and many other people's videos for longer than you've been alive.
Honestly I just found stephanie a few weeks ago and I watched all of her old videos and didn’t even know that she was going through her “all in” journey until recently and honestly I am proud of this woman. As people we think gaining weight is a negative thing and it can make us feel insecure. She is so strong to show people her journey and freely talk about it. I bet it’s hard but I think what she’s doing is so great.She is taking care of her health whether it be physically mentally or emotionally. And for all you haters out there hating on her, you were never here for her or her wellbeing you were just here for her body and how it looked. Period. Anyways YOU ARE A QUEEN and I will support you in whatever journey you take 110 percent.
Also can I say THAT BOOTY THOUGH
Girl, I feel you about that menstrual vendetta! I was amenorrheic for close to two years in my late teens (very destructive food habits, but my doc rejected that concept because my BMI was > 18). When I hit my breaking point and decided I'd rather gain weight than spend another day in the restrictive nightmare, one of the most difficult manifestations of recovery was my period! Man, it was so painful! One day, I was sitting on the bus (on my way to group therapy for EDs, somewhat ironically) and my period came in like a tsunami. Like. All over the seat. I had to get out immediately and walk home 20 minutes in the rain with my jacket around my waist to hide the evidence. Fun times, but I'm doing better now! Thanks for leading the way for so many and good luck with your transition!
you encouraged me to recover from anorexia!!! thank you ❤️
I know I dont know you but I'm still so proud of you for wanting and trying to get better! You're amazing
So proud of u!!! You got this. Good luck & all the best in ur recovery 💖💖💖
Proud of you. ♥️
💝❤️
same!!
this gives me hope to finally beat anorexia. you look so beautiful even if you did gain 30 pounds
I believe in you! Good luck and stay strong ♥️
You are beautiful hunny!!!!
Stay strong honey, i believe in you!! ✨✨
You can do it ! ❤
Gurl l!!!!! YOU LOOK HAPPIER AND MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN EVERRRRRR !!!!!!!!!! Keep inspiring and doing what you love ❤️
You're bringing light into the world and enlightening the experience of being a woman to all of us. Thank you! 💜
I think the message you are sending going “all in” is really important and I admire you for being public with it ☺️❤️
I've always enjoyed your videos but I feel like I relate to you so much more now since you went all in. I think it's because you're showing us all of your vulnerability, and that's very rare. It's rare that people try to show who and how they truly are. I loved the footage where you said you were thinking of not including the gym footage because that too was very real. It's one thing to gain weight and be honest about it, and it's another to also be honest about those days where you don't feel so great about it, but all of it is so inspiring because it not only shows that tiny bodies are not the only bodies, but that also it's okay to not be confident all the time in whatever bodies we have. I just can't praise you enough. Love from Ireland!
"I'm just happy. I'm happier right now." ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
OMG! Your energy, the editing, THIS WHOLE VIDEO made me so happy!! I'm so glad you're living your best life and sharing it with us.
Your weight gain has been a very inspiring journey to witness thus far. The 30 lbs really accentuates your curves!
Have you seen Rebecca Leung's video where she eats 'all in'? It was inspired by you and really wholesome.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey Stephanie!! You have helped so many of us !! You have became one of my favorite youtubers!!
Thank you Ryan! You're so sweet!
The best thing about this change is how happy you are. Tbh, I'm not sure how you were before because this is my first video of you that I watched but I must say that you are so very ecstatic about your change. Hope you keep this up for however long you want it!
Thank you for healing and resetting the perception of what a woman SHOULD look like!
Honestly, if I ever look even HALF as good as you look right now, I will have achieved a lifelong dream. You are so inspiring. Thank you for not scrapping this footage- you seriously look amazing! For whatever reason, you look a lot younger now! After losing about 50 lbs., I am SO tired of doing endless amounts of cardio. I feel ready to continue my health/weight loss journey by switching over to strength training. The weight section of the gym has always been really intimidating to me, but I just purchased your specialization program and I feel motivated to get over that fear!!
seoulsearch you got this!!!!
seoulsearch congrats!
When I see what you looked like before you went all in I see how you put on 30 pounds and still look absolutely incredibly. Not meaning to sound rude or mean but you looked so lean it was scary. You look curvy and have such a beautiful figure now 😍😍
She looks really feminine now and healthy.
I agree. I used to love her science based content but I actually had to unfollow her a while before she went all-in, because I felt she was getting on a really unhealthy path, which I didn't want to support or follow. But when I came across her video talking about her struggles and going all-in I was like YASSS, she's putting her health first and I'm here to support that all the way! 😍 Steph, you're so beautiful and inspirational, and I want to thank you for your honesty.
i agree, she looks fantastic
But its so bad for your insulin and body to eat sugar snacks and etche shpuld eat more good foods
@Real boxing Fan1 Stephanie said multiple times that even when she's eating 6000 calories a day, most of that is whole foods. Eating "garbage food" all the time obviously isn't healthly for the long run, she's not doing that. However, there's nothing wrong with enjoying some candy or processed foods if you're not doing that everyday for like 5 years lol. Especially when your goal is to fix your metabolism and hunger.
You're just looking at all of this from such a wrong perspective.
I think you look 100% stunning right now. Not just on the outside but the inside too. Happiness suits you. 😃
*we are valuable at any size and stage of life!*
i'm so happy about this! you're rly showing the world that "thick fit" IS a thing... too many girls will hit the gym and stay skinny and don't even put on muscle bc they think it makes them bulky and ugly. truth is both muscle and fat are natural on our bodies. *we should stop valuing ourselves for perceived beauty.* life is too short to worry about how beautiful or not we are.
Venus Hi I’m new to her channel.. just wondering how she gained the weight? It sounds like it wasn’t intentional
@@CremedelaCreme777 it was intentional. She went "all in" which means eating until satiation or until you're completely full. She was having issues with being very very hungry so she decided to just eat whatever she wants and gain weight to make her feel better. Theres a few videos about it on her channel you can check out!
the pineapple universe Ok thank you!
Cassandra Celestin stephanie uploaded an explanation video for the "all in" diet. basically she got sick bc of her extremely low body fat percentage (she used to compete in bikini contests and after she stopped w that she did bodybuilding, fitness etc on her yt channel. which is why she was obsessed w lowering the body fat in the first place) and now she fixed a lot of issues by going back to a healthy body fat percentage
I didn't see any imperfections, just a beautiful girl 💐
That's what I thought. Stunning physique
THIS is body positivity! Thank you for sharing your entire journey, and I cannot stress enough how much I admire your courage. I know it must have taken you a lot to choose this path - weight gain is just the surface but it’s essentially saying “goodbye” to a big part of your identity to make room for a healthier you. And THAT is hard. But the new you is just as wonderful, if not more full of life than the old one! You look amazing :)
JMOR M Amen!
Stephanie, I love love love that you chose to keep photos that showed your beautiful realness. This is such a wonderful, empowering and normalizing message for women. In reality, women in strength training come in ALL shapes and sizes and we can all be beautiful at any size..and more importantly, STRONG. Thank you for being vulnerable with us!
I'm 15 years old. I have a problem in eating foods before and it went really bad. But now I am fighting but I am still aware with my weight. Stephanie is one of my motivation to fight this kind of illness that's why I'm so thankful that youtube recommendation really recommend me something that will change my life ❤
I SO SO SO appreciate this video series. You look amazing and it's so inspiring to see your mood in these videos (the highs and the lows). I am also on my own iteration of a bulking phase for the first time ever and this video series is healing for me. Seriously. Thank you so much. I really appreciate you, you doing this, and you being so transparent and amazing about it all. It's so kind and generous. It's healing for me to watch, and I'm sure so many other men and women. Thank you times a million.
Stephanie omg. You are RADIATING happiness. You look and seem so happy and you are beautiful. This is incredible to see. Keep it up girl!
Hi Stephanie - I just found your channel and it has been so enlightening and healing. My ex was extremely emotionally abusive and projected all his body insecurities onto me. I started restricting food, fell back into an ED, started back over-exercising and counting calories, cut out all dairy, bread, and goodness, and then ended up with Extreme Hunger without even knowing it. I didn't go "All In" mentally, but I was so hungry I couldn't stop myself from binging, purging, and doing it all over again. I gained 40 pounds in total across several months of being literally unable to control myself, and am just now starting to ease back down to my normal range with intuitive eating (I'm 20 lbs down now, plus another whole 180lb down after losing the ex 😂). Watching your channel and journey has been so healing. Seeing what an extra 30lbs looks like on you is also so helpful. Knowing I had gained 30-40 lbs made me feel terrible and bloated, but looking at you I realize that isn't so much weight at all. You still looked hot and fabulous here, and most importantly, you were healthy and thriving! I think we feel so bad about this stuff because no one talks about it openly - we don't even know what a 30 lb weight fluctuation actually looks like on someone else (or I didn't, at least). A supportive partner seems like a key difference too. Thank you for your bravery in documenting this journey. You have a beautiful soul and it shines through.
I just found your channel, I love that you’re going all in! I haven’t followed any training vlogs in a while. I’ve been in recovery for an eating disorder a few times in the past but I’ve been recovered for over 2 years now. I’m so excited that you’re doing this publicly because I did it on my own and it was hard! I also was in a hospital program that was so helpful. I actually stopped all activity for months, except for light walking. That was really hard. I don’t lift anymore because I realized that balance is hard for me in the gym but I’ve continued some light activity like swimming, cycling, hiking. At times I’ve used resistance bands and more advanced yoga at times. I’m just enjoying life outside of tracking macros, my weight and training and I honestly don’t miss it anymore (I did at first)! I just wanted to say that set point theory is so true, I’m living proof! I was so afraid that I would keep growing but I eventually did plateau and settled at a comfortable weight. It took a while! And I’m so glad that my extreme hunger is gone and it’s so nice to not be preoccupied with food anymore and not feel like I have to stop eating before feeling satisfied. Bodies are wonderful! Thank you for being so honest and open!
Your authenticity and integrity make you such a great role model. You are lovely. Take care ❤️
I like your content so much more now that you’re “all in.” I had to take a break from watching before because seeing restriction is not good for my mental health, even though I loved your science/ evidence-based content. You look great and your message is amazing.
That's cool
Same! I love her but her habits before all in were triggering me
ure crazy to feel self consious with dis new body, u look soo much better like dis!!!! keep up the good work girl!
I never understood what she's talking about when she mentions how self conscious she is about her weight gain bc im like uhm girl you look so good what the heck are you even talking about like ya you gained a little bit of weight but the thicc-ness is sooo sexy AND you look fit unlike me whos smaller but has so much excess fat just hanging around and im not toned what so ever. But in this vid when she cuts from her physique now to older videos with her lean physique back then i was like oohhhh I FINALLY get it. It is a big difference not that any of us care or see it the way she does cause she just looks hot either way and it's like two different types of hot but equally HOT nonetheless. But i think it's so personal when it's your body bc you have a self image and when your body changes like that it's almost like a dysmorphia feeling bc your brain cant quite reconcile the you now vs the version of you it has stored up there and kinda almost rejects the new person and that's why she feels so bad about herself when we're here like "damn look at that body" either way
WOW! Stephanie, you are truly making a difference! By taking your body through the process and not cutting corners, you are educating and inspiring for all the right reasons.
You are very inspiring and thank you for not scrapping your footage. I appreciate seeing a fitness model showing society that it is okay to be different weights. You are gorgeous.
Be sure that this video will help motivating many women who struggle with HA to start gaining weight for their long term health.
You are brave, awesome and a super "role" model!!
I love how honest and raw you are. I wasn't looking for a new program, but honestly considering buying your's just cause I actually trust you and your knowledge!
I really am so proud of you I’m 14 and I’ve always looked up to you but seeing this makes me love you even more, do what makes you happy and who cares what ANYONE else thinks
I was watching this on the treadmill at the gym and when you said you felt satisfied with just that bowl of oatmeal i literally screamed yesss!! And everyone looked at me😂 I don’t care cauz it’s working for you!!! So so so happy for you girl!!💕💕 And you look absolutely gorge in every damn angle hon xxxx
okay so she literally looks awesome i love how she is dedicated to this. it will definitely pay off in the end. wish i could do this
Steph I just had to comment on this video to tell you you look BANGIN in your workout footage! I can’t believe you don’t think so, honestly girl you should be so proud of yourself! Goals!
You said that the lighting showed imperfections.........
what imperfections?
I love you so much, and I think you look beautiful both ways and I hope you are more confident with your body soon
She's probably referring to her overall appearance of not being lean/athletic looking, for example her stomach isn't flat anymore. it's kind of fat and chubby in relation to her previous standards
@@gcg8187 it's not fat or chubby in any sense you're straight crazy.
Dr. Siracha I meant that her imperfections are only seen by her, because all I see is a strong beautiful woman who is trying to find herself again...
I think she looked amazing but just weird because of the no shoes, lol. I know she wanted her feet flat though.
You look younger, happier, full of life, your skin looks amazing. I watched a video of yours from a few months ago after this and you really do seem so much happier 😊
I love this video because you are willing to show vulnerability! I can relate to this video! You look beautiful and balanced in life! This video feels raw and real!
this video has beyond helped me thank you so much for sharing. I was constantly starving myself and over excersing and feeling hungry all the time then binge eating and hating myself for it. but this has shown me that its okay not to be as skinny as possible and to instead listen and love my body
I went through the same thing . I a feel much better about my body now . I'm eating normal now and i love it . You can also do it❤
You look better than ever!! And you seem so happy and full of life...like Meg Squats says, the way you look is the least interesting thing about you. It's great to see you push through the fear that holds so many people back...because it's important to remember we are all impermanent....our bodies come...and then they go...we will all grow old...holding onto a certain appearance because of pressure to look that way causes a lot of unhappiness...like when we were children, we didn't sit and analyze how much body fat we had or if we looked bloated a certain day....we just enjoyed life and ate ice cream when we felt like it! There is something to be said for relaxing our grip on the "fitspo" lifestyle to make a life that is really worth living and is enjoyable in all aspects. Mentally, spiritually and physically.
This is the type of content I’ve signed for!! THANK UUUUU
YOU GO GIRL!
Stephanie! You look so much happier and healthier now. Although I loved your shredded body, I love your new body now, it's so much more realistic and relatable. Love from the Philippines!
Thank you for speaking on this in such a positive way. So many women need to hear this. You look so beautiful
