Congrats Fumi & Christina! I've lost 116 lbs in the last year and a half. No surgery, no shots, no Ozempic, just hard core portion control. Now my challenge is strength training. You guys inspire me.
Love these women! We need more of Christina and Fumi…Fumi’s laugh should be boxed and sold. It is one of a kind! Congratulations to you both on your weight loss journey. You both look amazing! ❤😊
Wow you look Fabulous Christina that’s a big achievement congrats to both of you 👍🏾 What a difference Fumi in the before and after pictures of your back . This was very motivational I’m sending this Video to my daughter 😊
I just found you about an hour ago, and I'm literally in tears, because in my months of researching for SOMETHING, SOMEONE to help me with motivating myself to get started on my weight loss and fitness journey- Tonight My eyes and my soul have been awakened, and you now have a new subscriber! I came to this video from your chair exercise video; I'm pulling in my stomach as we speak Ha ha! Tomorrow I start with a fresh journey outlook and I thank you! Look out 3 months, here I come, and I'm taking your inspiration with me! 🌹
"The slower the better, because once it's gradual, so gradual...you don't feel the change, which means that that you are able to sustain the lifestyle that you have come accustom to." People say slower is better, but saying in this fashion really give the "why" of it. This is a revelation Fumi! Yes!!
Looking stunning Girls!! I'm 61yrs and lost 24 kg's in just under 5 months and at my goal weight for the first time in my adult life. Feeling fantastic and don't want to lose more weight as I will look skeletal.
That’s awesome. How were you able to avoid loose skin considering how fast you lost the weight. I want to begin my own weight loss journey but I am so scared of loose skin as I am scared to go under the knife afterwards.
I'm on this journey at 56 and you ladies are so inspiring, I started this journey months ago when i was considering a bbl, truth is when i took the pictures for my consult and saw myself i knew it was time to get myself healthy so I am doing it. i wish i had a friend to do this journey with me but i dont so i will continue on... You ladies are motivating me to continue to push thru and the bbl i was denied because i had a mini stroke before but that wont stop my journey. I'm down 42 lbs from once 264 to 222 so I'm pround of myself. I'm not as focus on the number as i am on how my body is looking to me so i know i need to get back in the gym. Thank you ladies for this video today. You ladies are amazing
I am just listening to this. I wish i can start. I am over 320lbs and with serious health issues. Thanks sisters for this. I have save this video to listen to it over and over again for motivation.
I restarted my weight loss journey last year in February (that COVID weight had to go, lbs) I started doing intermittent fasting and I love it, feeling fabulous 🤩 (in my Fumi voice) I wholeheartedly agree, losing the weight slowly but surely is the only and best way to go!! To date I've lost 30lbs. That's from size 20 to now size 16 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾)
This was a video I needed to see and story that I needed to hear! Just in time. Im 33 years old, and have about 50 pounds I want to lose. I wasn’t always this big. Sometimes it just feels like “why bother” because it feels like it will take me such a long time to lose. This video gave me the motivation I needed!
Yall are gorgeous, I'm already thin but in the midst of building muscle at 40. I'm embracing myself at every age, and you ladies give me so much hope. ❤
I just stumbled upon your channel by accident. However, they say everything happens for a reason. It was truly meant to be that I found your page. I have to say, my gosh you are both so gorgeous. You are literally glowing. It's been a long time since I've seen such radiance (inside and out). I have about 80 lbs to lose and having a hard time. You have inspired me so much. Thank you for the tips and the positive attitude Fumi and Christina. ❤😊
So proud of you 2. I started my weight lose journey 3 years ago. I was pre-diabetic. I lost 70 lbs. I feel so much better. Yoga, cardio and weight training. I can get around so much better. ❤❤❤❤
I love this segment, it is encouraging. When you do the work instead of getting the work done. It's a different level of accomplishment, self-love and personal growth. ❤
Fumi your friend is such an inspiration, showing her arms and seeing how good they look and her attributing her skin success to resistance training is phenomenal! Many women are afraid of resistance training from being in fear that they will bulk up like a man. Women need to be aware that resistance training allows you to burn fat faster and in order to become big and bulky it has to be done intentionally and will not just happen automatically. Your muscles will become inflamed and become sore shortly afterwards and maybe moreso the day afterwards because as you lift and lower the weight the muscle is being torn and broken down in order to be rebuilt so there will be temporary inflammation. That process not only rebuild,transforms the muscle and continues to burn calories for 24 hours after you stop lifting so alternating upper and lower body resistance training is very beneficial in allowing the muscles resting to properly rebuild bodies.
This is one of the most inspiring videos I’ve ever watched on any channel, let alone Auntie Funmi’s channel. And that is saying a lot, since her videos are consistently inspiring and filled with wisdom!!
Omgoodness. Words can't express how much this 58 year old 250 pound diabetic woman starting my journey needed to hear this. Thinking how can I be successful at this point in my life. YES, I CAN! ❤❤
Yes you can! I'm rooting for you! Fumi's advice is spot on. Don't give up. She is spot on. Come back & listen to her if you need reminders and inspiration. I'm passionate about health & fitness & I love success stories of everyday people doing the work & making their lives better. Health is wealth!
First off you Queens are absolutely beautiful from the inside out. I have been struggling on my weight loss and really was so discouraged until I watched this video. I’m taking the advice you all gave and I’m going to take this day by day; meal by meal. I’m staring this health journey. Thank you so much. I’m feeling so much better. Please keep doing these videos bc they are so inspiring and necessary. Thank you 😘
I love these sit-down videos. Its like being around my elder sisters. I feel safe & correctly guided. I'm 43 & on a similar journey. Started off as just weight loss, but it's evolved into metamorphosis in every area of my life. Can't wait for Julia 2.0.
Congrats Fumi and Christina!!!! I came across your video last night looking for a fupa video for beginners. My Bestie/Sister and I started together a weight loss journey the beginning of February this year (2024). We've always dieted through the years separately and cheered each others success however, now I will be 53 this summer and she is 10 years older than me. We are now in the "FUN TIMES" of our lives and we both see weight loss in a different light than before. We do not just want a "quick fix" to not being fat. Now we want to feel better, live healthier, and let our naturally beauty show again. This morning I woke up doing your video focusing on the fupa with chair exercises. I absolutely loved it. You spoke of many things in that video that I was taught years ago when weight concerns first began to become an issue in my life. I loved this bestie video of you and Christina. I will share this with my bestie and know she will love it too. I am excited about this journey to a healthier, better me. Thank You for your inspirational videos. Fumi I simply love your personality your video made me feel like you were here in the living room with me pushing me through those movements and leg lifts. Your laugh is infectious!!!! Love It!!! #fumination
This is very motivating! I noticed yesterday how much Christina lost & almost didn't recognize her. Fumi you always looked just right to me, I only noticed a small amount weight loss on you. Hard work pays off!! Y'all look amazing 💕 💞
Thank you BOTH for the joy you've manifested within yourself and what you share with us . Forget Oxempic, I'm gonna need a medical procedure that clones each of you, so that I can have a Christina + Fumi in my life. The chemistry is BEYOND. And I'm so, so, so, so, so very jealous 😂😂😂😂 Waiting impatiently in the United States for ALL of you you from the UK. I'm not as fabulous as the BOTH of you accessory queens but I'm inspired by y'all.
You both look incredibly outstanding; weight loss is always so transformative. Thank you for being vulnerable and transparent with the process. I struggle with adjusting to weight loss's physical and mental changes. Childhood teases of how big my head was, fighting with the psychological mindset to 'finish everything ' off the plate, and also feeling 'odd' in my body as I drop the pounds (like my mind takes longer to catch up with or I'm not ready for the changes) have always caused me to be yo-yo dieting and I hate that. I need a psychological workout with my weight loss goals.
You just go Ladies!!!! What an inspiration you are! I am 60 years old 😉and you both motivate me!!!! My journey has been weak at best! I am feeling this vibe. Thank you Fabulous ladies for sharing!🥰😁
Loved this video! Ladies you both look AMAZING! I am 52 and have been struggling with losing weight and more importantly getting healthy and earlier this week I was saying I needed to make sustainable changes. Your video was confirmation that I was thinking about this the right way. Thank you 😊
Fumi I just happened to stumble upon this episode and I really needed it. I have to lose 40-50 lbs due to some health issues. I have changed my diet and started to do minimal exercise. I became so upset with myself because I am not seeing the progress. Lord knows I'm trying but it's such a challenge. Thank you and your bestie for doing this episode it has regained my earnestness to continue to do the work❤. THANK YOU so much❤
Fumi, you are so right about eating before you go out. My mom & grandparents taught me that & I always to it to avoid the craving of too much food. You guys are an inspiration. I am 43 yrs old. Have 2 children & I weight 143 @ 5' 3". I am working on loosing some weigh. Coming along good so far & feeling much more energetic & healthier. I look about 15 yrs younger & loving it.
Fumi, I did weight loss and am still in progress but I have lost a whole person (135 lbs) but the thing I learned and regained again was my breast!!! Your friend Christine mentioned lossing her breast because they strank. I was using collagen and collagen peptides. I put it in my tea, coffee...for me the hot drinks worked the best!! It takes about a good month or 2 before you notice, but you will notice, and the breast replump up, not as they were before but in your nee size. I have used Vital Proteins, 365 whole foods market brand of collagen peptides and Ancient Nutrition- Collagen Peptides. My journey still continues, and chapters are still being written.
This video popped up in my feed and I am so happy!!! This is so encouraging to continue on my weight loss journey!! You said something about staying away from negative energy SO TRUE! Thats been the biggest component in my journey! POSITIVITY!!!! THANK YOU LADIES FOR SHARING YOUR JOURNEY!!!
I love your channel! In Florida, where I reside ageism is so prominent; you are literally invisible once you leave your twenties. It pains me when I speak to so many beautiful women that downgrade themselves. Thank you so much for celebrating , encouraging, and just being a phenomenal example to all people that life doesn't end after twenty- five. I pray God bless and keep you and your family always.
This is everything!! I asked God to show me black gorgeous women that are fabulous and incredible in their 50s because that is what I will be. God blessed me with you both! This information you both are giving us is perfection! Thank you thank you thank you 🙏🏽 God bless you and may he continue to bless you ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
This is my number-one episode. It is a pleasure seeing Christina and you together Mrs Fumi, love your energy when you are both together. I am also on my weight journey and living for the new me. Isn't it wonderful loving yourself just enough to feel and look the way you vision yourself and see the actual result? I find that having a partner doing the weight journey with me keeps me motivated. It is not easy at first but you have to push yourself. Yes, positive energy helps a lot. Inspiration goes a long way. I use a picture of myself and work with that picture to change what I need to change. Looking in the mirror is something that I find difficult to do at first, but if I did not look then I am not able to get this far in my weight journey. So I walk every day for 1hr and at first, it was difficult to do. But now I walk that 1hr like there is no tomorrow 😊
Thank you ladies both for your transparency!! Before pics show REAL women with real bodies. That helps and inspires because we can relate to what we see in our own mirrors. Love this and again, THANNNNNK YOOOOOOU ❤❤❤
Fumi, I found your channel and subscribed during the panorama (C-19) lol and I have loved all your content. I love your fun nature, your vulnerability, and of course, the older sis vibe as you encourage everyone to be their best selves TAKE UP SPACE. Also, you and Christina are a riot! 🤣...your friendship is absolutely beautiful. We're living and loving. Blessings to you. ❤
CONGRATULATIONS ladies! You look beautiful! I just completed 5 wks of out patient therapy & it's been a game changer for me. I thought, if I could go through w/that...(it was rough) then I can lose my weight & rewire my mind/thoughts. This video is going to help me to be steadfast in my new normal. Positive, strong. Mental health, meditation, exercise, healthy eating, sleep. I'm selfish about taking care of me 1st from now on. The most important thing, is kicking toxic people OUT of my life. Especially family. If you don't benefit me, I'm out.
Everything you’re saying is sooo true! I have done this before & when it’s done in a healthy way…over time…it takes 8-12 months to reach the goal, 50-60lbs. But if you’re consistent the time flies by! It is a JOURNEY & you have to change your life & give yourself Grace as you change your life.💪🏾🙏🏽💕
Fumi, please remember an important part of any health journey is getting adequate sleep. 4 hours just won't cut it especially if you're going to bed after midnight. Please read up on the long-term effects of cheating yourself of sleep. It's just as important as what you put in your body.
So very happy for you and Cristina! My bestie and I also re-started our fitness journey in February. Prior to the pandemic and lockdown we were both in peak physical condition. Unfortunately lockdown affected us the way it did millions of others. The stress and uncertainty of a global pandemic seemed overwhelming. We’re grateful to come out the other side, and decided to retake control of our health. This time we’re concentrating on weight training three times a week, and doing steady cardio on alternate days. Our nutrition is sensible, varied. Full of whole, non-processed proteins, veggies,while grains, healthy fats, and fruits. Including the occasional treat. We’ve learned to be kind to ourselves, and not judge ourselves harshly if we have an “off” day. Like you lovely ladies said it’s a lifelong journey for health, and wellbeing. Looking FABULOUS because of that journey is the icing on the cake. Much love to you both.
You both are True inspirations ladies. Many congratulations to you both. You both are amazing... so much wonderful laughter! I really felt like the third woman in the room chatting with my sisters. I'll be 55 next month and you have given me some extra motivation to finally stop making excuses and lose this weight. God bless you both!
I’m currently on my weight loss and health journey. It’s hard removing all the junk in my diet. The crisps call me 😂. I have lost 20lb so far and hoping to lose another 30 before I hit my goal weight. I doing intermittent fasting which helps tremendously with cravings. You guys look amazing 🤩
Christina🙊!!!! I am so proud of you big sis. To be honest you always came across as a strong woman and a wonderful besty to Fumi. But your energy is mind blowing now and sexy with grace ❤❤. Fumi, as always sending you and your family my love and blessings from the Netherlands. Keep up the good work, I'm rooting for you🎉🎉
Congratulations ladies!🎉 I'm on my way to getting out of the 200 pound club. I love how your goal was to lose weight but you found your health. ❤ Greetings from Tx!
Dayum!! Beautiful!! You ladies are killing the game. Health is our wealth. Healthiness is about so much more than the physical. The mental mindset is so key. Love you! Fumi I love love you. You are so real and I appreciate you!!❤❤
I love how honest and realistic you are Fumi, I recommended your channel to a FB group with mainly women over 40, as I think you have benefited my life, in just a short time ❤ xx
LOVE your energy and positivity. Just a note to you all. 1. Measure your glucose level and see that IF you continue to eat what you want, even with exercising, you WILL spike your insulin. 2. Fructose is only metabolised in the liver and eating fruit constantly IS putting a strain on the liver. 3. Inflammation LOVES LOVES sugar, so does cancer 4. Seed oils KILL
This episode was very motivational. Currently I am on my weight loss journey. I've hit a plateau and can't seem to get over the hump. I'll take your advice and stop looking at the scale because it can be very discouraging. Thanks so very much for this episode .❤❤❤
I absolutely love your energy...I am trying to be in the right headspace to continue my weight loss journey. Pray for me while I use you and your friends' motivation!
I absolutely loved this conversation! And allow me to tell you why. You said no drastic weight loss, do not deprive yourself, one meal at a time, do not weigh yourself daily or even weekly, but once a month. This is sensible and sustainable weight loss. Thank you ladies for the reminders and encouragement. 🙏🏽💕
Lesson learnt " I stay away from NEGATIVE energy." 💯% Fumi which is why I have cut out more than 80% of small minded and negative people and I feel better. There is a saying to elevate you need to embark on an isolated path! 😊👊🙂
Correct muscle is sleek and fat is fluffy. So 160 muscle looks entirely different than 160 of fat. Muscle also fights insulin resistance. One will look like size 4 to 6 versus 12 to 16.
I am SO insprired! I'm 44 and started my body recomposition in September 2022 (I've lost 25 lbs). Watching this made me smile so much. Thank you so much for sharing and congratulations to you both!
❤ I am 43 and I have been able to loose 20lbs since January 2023. 190lbs is a lot. I can’t imagine loosing that much weight on your own. These ladies are fiercely loyal to themselves😂
Christina looks amazing! Of course she's beautiful, but wow. Fumi you are also amazing, but with your height you always look slimmer than most. Great job ladies! Congrats!
Congrats Fumi & Christina! I've lost 116 lbs in the last year and a half. No surgery, no shots, no Ozempic, just hard core portion control. Now my challenge is strength training. You guys inspire me.

Fumi said “ I can’t be looking crazy or acting crazy over food” . I love that comment.

Sometimes it just feels like “why bother” because it feels like it will take me such a long time to lose. This video gave me the motivation I needed!
I understand the feeling and I am determined to stay motivated to live a healthier life style. I did it once and I tell myself I can do it again.
It's been 8 months since your post. Were you able to lose any weight? Please give feedback.
Yall are gorgeous, I'm already thin but in the midst of building muscle at 40. I'm embracing myself at every age, and you ladies give me so much hope. ❤

Congrats Fumi and Christina!!!!

Exactly 😅
Mrs. Fumi,
Y’all are so encouraging for those of us over fifty on the weight loss journey. CONGRATULATIONS.
You both look incredibly outstanding; weight loss is always so transformative. Thank you for being vulnerable and transparent with the process. I struggle with adjusting to weight loss's physical and mental changes.

Thank you and your bestie for doing this episode it has regained my earnestness to continue to do the work❤. THANK YOU so much❤

"Your shoulders are shouldering!" Yes!!!! I love your beautiful, positive energy, Fumi! You both are FABULOUS and INSPIRING! Congratulations!!🎉
Fumi, I did weight loss and am still in progress but I have lost a whole person (135 lbs) but the thing I learned and regained again was my breast!!!

It takes about a good month or 2 before you notice, but you will notice, and the breast replump up, not as they were before but in your nee size. I have used Vital Proteins, 365 whole foods market brand of collagen peptides and Ancient Nutrition- Collagen Peptides. My journey still continues, and chapters are still being written.
Looooove Christina!! ❤
I absolutely love you and everything you've done Fumi! Congratulations!!!
This video popped up in my feed and I am so happy!!! This is so encouraging to continue on my weight loss journey!! You said something about staying away from negative energy SO TRUE! Thats been the biggest component in my journey! POSITIVITY!!!! THANK YOU LADIES FOR SHARING YOUR JOURNEY!!!
Very inspirational ladies. I keep looking at Christina. Wow, you did that! Radiant both of you. You are truly living the life you are talking about.
Queenly vibes throughout! Ladies, thank you for the video. You're both beautiful inside and out. I needed this.
Wowwww you both look amazing. I lost 30 lbs and kind of settled, you’re motivating me to get going again ❤
I love your channel! In Florida, where I reside ageism is so prominent; you are literally invisible once you leave your twenties. It pains me when I speak to so many beautiful women that downgrade themselves. Thank you so much for celebrating , encouraging, and just being a phenomenal example to all people that life doesn't end after twenty- five. I pray God bless and keep you and your family always.
I AM SOOOOO HAPPY FOR U BOTH!! U GUYS LOOK GREAT & BOTH OF U SEEM SOOOO RENEWED, REFUELED, & RENEGERIZED!!! YEESSSSSSS!!
This is everything!! I asked God to show me black gorgeous women that are fabulous and incredible in their 50s because that is what I will be. God blessed me with you both! This information you both are giving us is perfection! Thank you thank you thank you 🙏🏽 God bless you and may he continue to bless you ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
This is my number-one episode. It is a pleasure seeing Christina and you together Mrs Fumi, love your energy when you are both together. I am also on my weight journey and living for the new me. Isn't it wonderful loving yourself just enough to feel and look the way you vision yourself and see the actual result? I find that having a partner doing the weight journey with me keeps me motivated. It is not easy at first but you have to push yourself. Yes, positive energy helps a lot. Inspiration goes a long way. I use a picture of myself and work with that picture to change what I need to change. Looking in the mirror is something that I find difficult to do at first, but if I did not look then I am not able to get this far in my weight journey. So I walk every day for 1hr and at first, it was difficult to do. But now I walk that 1hr like there is no tomorrow 😊
Thank you ladies both for your transparency!! Before pics show REAL women with real bodies. That helps and inspires because we can relate to what we see in our own mirrors. Love this and again, THANNNNNK YOOOOOOU ❤❤❤
Fumi, I found your channel and subscribed during the panorama (C-19) lol and I have loved all your content. I love your fun nature, your vulnerability, and of course, the older sis vibe as you encourage everyone to be their best selves TAKE UP SPACE.
Also, you and Christina are a riot! 🤣...your friendship is absolutely beautiful. We're living and loving. Blessings to you. ❤
CONGRATULATIONS ladies! You look beautiful! I just completed 5 wks of out patient therapy & it's been a game changer for me. I thought, if I could go through w/that...(it was rough) then I can lose my weight & rewire my mind/thoughts. This video is going to help me to be steadfast in my new normal. Positive, strong. Mental health, meditation, exercise, healthy eating, sleep. I'm selfish about taking care of me 1st from now on. The most important thing, is kicking toxic people OUT of my life. Especially family. If you don't benefit me, I'm out.
Everything you’re saying is sooo true! I have done this before & when it’s done in a healthy way…over time…it takes 8-12 months to reach the goal, 50-60lbs. But if you’re consistent the time flies by! It is a JOURNEY & you have to change your life & give yourself Grace as you change your life.💪🏾🙏🏽💕
Omg I cannot believe this is aunt Christina omg. Am back to gym and eating real well hopefully soon I will be here 😂😂😂
You two look sooo gorgeous!!!
Girl you’re wild 😂😂😂 that Fumi laugh at the beginning.
I love you ❤️🔥🙌🏾💋
Thank you Christiana & Fumi, y’all are the rmvp.
I love your positive energy and shares. TY!!
Christina I'm sooo proud of you girl
You both look absolutely phenomenal 😍 discipline pays off 🙏🏽
BRILLIANT ADVICE!!! BLESS you for sharing your personal journeys!!
You both look amazing! I love how you both supported each other and mentioned the psychological aspect of weight loss.
Fumi, please remember an important part of any health journey is getting adequate sleep. 4 hours just won't cut it especially if you're going to bed after midnight. Please read up on the long-term effects of cheating yourself of sleep. It's just as important as what you put in your body.
Thank you my love ❤️ you're absolutely correct and I'll do my best to improve to at least 6 hrs, 💕
You both look flawless! You are such an inspiration!
So very happy for you and Cristina! My bestie and I also re-started our fitness journey in February. Prior to the pandemic and lockdown we were both in peak physical condition. Unfortunately lockdown affected us the way it did millions of others. The stress and uncertainty of a global pandemic seemed overwhelming. We’re grateful to come out the other side, and decided to retake control of our health. This time we’re concentrating on weight training three times a week, and doing steady cardio on alternate days. Our nutrition is sensible, varied. Full of whole, non-processed proteins, veggies,while grains, healthy fats, and fruits. Including the occasional treat. We’ve learned to be kind to ourselves, and not judge ourselves harshly if we have an “off” day. Like you lovely ladies said it’s a lifelong journey for health, and wellbeing. Looking FABULOUS because of that journey is the icing on the cake. Much love to you both.
HelloI am 64 years old I lost hundred 160 pounds I was weight 350 thank you
Congratulations 🎊
You both are True inspirations ladies. Many congratulations to you both. You both are amazing... so much wonderful laughter! I really felt like the third woman in the room chatting with my sisters. I'll be 55 next month and you have given me some extra motivation to finally stop making excuses and lose this weight. God bless you both!
I’m currently on my weight loss and health journey. It’s hard removing all the junk in my diet. The crisps call me 😂. I have lost 20lb so far and hoping to lose another 30 before I hit my goal weight. I doing intermittent fasting which helps tremendously with cravings. You guys look amazing 🤩
Friendship is a beautiful thing. Doing the weight loss together made you both stronger! I appreciate your message. God Bless you.
Christina🙊!!!!
I am so proud of you big sis. To be honest you always came across as a strong woman and a wonderful besty to Fumi. But your energy is mind blowing now and sexy with grace ❤❤.
Fumi, as always sending you and your family my love and blessings from the Netherlands. Keep up the good work, I'm rooting for you🎉🎉
Congratulations ladies!🎉 I'm on my way to getting out of the 200 pound club. I love how your goal was to lose weight but you found your health. ❤ Greetings from Tx!
Dayum!! Beautiful!! You ladies are killing the game. Health is our wealth. Healthiness is about so much more than the physical. The mental mindset is so key. Love you! Fumi I love love you. You are so real and I appreciate you!!❤❤
I love how honest and realistic you are Fumi, I recommended your channel to a FB group with mainly women over 40, as I think you have benefited my life, in just a short time ❤ xx
LOVE your energy and positivity. Just a note to you all. 1. Measure your glucose level and see that IF you continue to eat what you want, even with exercising, you WILL spike your insulin. 2. Fructose is only metabolised in the liver and eating fruit constantly IS putting a strain on the liver. 3. Inflammation LOVES LOVES sugar, so does cancer 4. Seed oils KILL
Thank you ladies! This conversation of your personal journey, truly blessed me. And encourages me on my own journey of being in the 50 plus club!
The melanin is poppin! ❤❤❤❤
This episode was very motivational. Currently I am on my weight loss journey. I've hit a plateau and can't seem to get over the hump. I'll take your advice and stop looking at the scale because it can be very discouraging. Thanks so very much for this episode .❤❤❤
If you are able try IF to break out the plateau
I love your hearty laugh & your positive disposition! Thanks so much for the encouragement!🥰
I absolutely love your energy...I am trying to be in the right headspace to continue my weight loss journey. Pray for me while I use you and your friends' motivation!
Thank you Fumi and Christina!!!! You both are so inspirational!! I am not giving up!!! You both are both are amazing and beautiful!!!
Imagine a day time tv show with these two beauties'?
Bestie is giving shoulders!!!!!!!!!! Looking good ladies.
I absolutely loved this conversation! And allow me to tell you why. You said no drastic weight loss, do not deprive yourself, one meal at a time, do not weigh yourself daily or even weekly, but once a month. This is sensible and sustainable weight loss. Thank you ladies for the reminders and encouragement. 🙏🏽💕
Kristina, you look FABULOUS.!!! WOW, those shoulders, it took a year to develop those shoulders? Congrats.
Wow, what an accomplishment. Congratulations you two! Fumi, your laugh brings me joy! I love!
Lesson learnt " I stay away from NEGATIVE energy." 💯% Fumi which is why I have cut out more than 80% of small minded and negative people and I feel better. There is a saying to elevate you need to embark on an isolated path! 😊👊🙂
Correct muscle is sleek and fat is fluffy. So 160 muscle looks entirely different than 160 of fat. Muscle also fights insulin resistance. One will look like size 4 to 6 versus 12 to 16.
Very inspiring! Did I miss what you guys ate? Portion control is what I need to work on! I want more of you two! Thanks Love You!
I am SO insprired! I'm 44 and started my body recomposition in September 2022 (I've lost 25 lbs). Watching this made me smile so much. Thank you so much for sharing and congratulations to you both!
❤ I am 43 and I have been able to loose 20lbs since January 2023. 190lbs is a lot. I can’t imagine loosing that much weight on your own. These ladies are fiercely loyal to themselves😂
Christina looks amazing! Of course she's beautiful, but wow. Fumi you are also amazing, but with your height you always look slimmer than most. Great job ladies! Congrats!
Congratulations ladies!! You both look absolutely stunning. Hoping to get there with y’all one day soon. 😃
