I cried watching this. It’s the only fitness video ive found that actually discusses the pain of binge eating, failing, getting back up, and all the self hatred. Thank you SO much for sharing. I’ve felt very alone with this for so long.
My god it's like the video is my life story in weight loss. I've been trying to lose weight for years. I've hated my body since I was 11, but only tried to lose weight at 14. It went well. But then it spiralled. Things kept happening, I got kicked out of my mum's, she left and went to another country, so I lived with my dad. Then my mum came back when I was 16, I moved in again, she kicked me out again, she left to another country again, I was left in England. I got cancer, it has ruined my speech and confidence to this day. After that, I fell into depression. My mum came back to England when I was 17, and I went to live in Cyprus with her. That's when I got my eating disorder. It was the only way I could cope. I went from 61kg to 53kg in a matter of less than 2 months. I had bulimia, and atypical anorexia. When we went back to England (I was 18), I decided I didn't want to live with her anymore. I went to live with my dad. After everything that happened, I started to gain weight. I started to binge. Hard. I felt like a failure. I tried to lose weight again, failed. Then I had an ed relapse, which was in February 2020. Then I tried to lose weight again. And again. And again. I've realised that I can't let my eating disorder do what it wants. I have to take weight loss slow, or I'll fall back into binge eating. During the 2020 lockdown, I went up to 70kg. Anyway, I yo-yo'd back and forth between 58 and 65kg for the next year, it felt like torture. Now, 2022, 20 years old. I'm learning to love myself no matter what I look like, but to also care for the body I love. I'm now 54.3kg and man, does it feel good to lose weight slowly. Being consistent really works. I'm going to start cardio soon, then weights. I kind of want a gym membership ngl.
@dawn run not for everyone no but you basically have to learn to be your own motivation/trainer besides even with the trainer she didnt succeed at first you have to do the hard work yourseld
Well other glow ups just show the hard work and the results just like it's supposed to be, I haven't seem one who ever has said "oh no I didn't had a bad time neither failures" (this right there would be unrealistic). To glow up she basically focused on the real issues (mental health and persistence) and then boom it happened. I don't really know what you mean by saying the others are unrealistics fr...
I understand this. Especially the “only chubby girl in the family” because I’m that girl. All my siblings are skinny and I hate being the only chubby one, even my friends. I have tried to lose weight but I gave up right after. But now I’m not going to and I WILL lose weight. For me and my 15 year old self. Like they say it’s either one day or day one.
@@lovelysanatingz4879omg i have the same thing as both of you where im 15 (245 lbs) and i so desperately want to lose weight but its so overwhelming and idk where to start 😭😭
im 15 too and im also trying to get fit and healthy, so far ive lost 5kg in the past few months and i see a bit of change but im going to try and lose another 5kg and start working on my fitness more
i love how if you see someone like her on the street you could be jealous of her looks without having any idea of the whole ordeal she’s lived through to get there
@@pearlykitty108 i guess not everyone shares your definition that thinnest is best, many people think a slim fit physique is something to be jealous of
I completely agree to you as well... most people show the results... but she shows the entire process of what it is to go through. I really appreciate her genuine personality. And I can totally relate to her because it's the same thing I'm going through.
Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great! I have worked as a personal trainer since 2019 and now I have started my youtube channel as I want to help more and more people achieving their goals. I do mostly home workouts and all the exercises that I post are proven and their results are very pleasing. I would appreciate a lot your support by subscribing and maybe you will find something that may help you as well.....
I watched your most recent video ''how glowing up ruined me'' first, then I watched this video. And its sad to see that most people in the comments lack self worth. They dont feel worthy of themselves when they dont fit into society's standards, thats really sad to see. As I just watched the video you uploaded a day ago, I saw that once you gain weight again you start to feel like a failure. If you dont break this cycle from losing weight subsequently gain weight again to feeling insecure its going to keep repeating, and trust me you really dont want that. So I shortly want to tell what I did. I first began with loving myself and accepting the way I am afterwards I started cutting out bad habits like binge eating etc. I absolutely didn't starve myself, heck no, but I replaced sugary processed foods with healthy ones. I did all of this to be healthy and not to fit in society's standards. I slowly started working out. I didn't rush the process, otherwise I would eventually give up and gain weight again. Slowly I became the healthiest version of myself, without burning out.
This comment deserves so much more recognition. Skinny is not the end goal. Building yourself into the healthiest version of yourself is. And binging is a clear sign you struggle with a healthy sustainable nutrition plan.
I'm also in this process. I changed foods but I still haven't had the strength to start exercising. I was already charging myself, these 2 videos and your comment helped me!
exactly! Cause you shouldn't lose weight bc you want to fit in the ''standards'' believe me, its almost impossible to fit in society's standards these days. If you really want to lose weight your goal should be ''being a healthy person'' cause even if you wouldn't get ''the dream body'', you would still succeed at being the healthiest version of yourself and that is what really matters.@@beeshep
I know??? She keeps pumping out these videos WITH NEW CLIPS everytime, like where does she keep all these files? How did they not get mixed up, or lost, deleted??
I am 16 right now. I binge eat ALOT. I am getting suicidal and depressed in this trap of cycle. She is EXACTLY me in this position. But, I will not give up. I will come back here after finding MYSELF!
Girl how are you doing ?? Please just don't loose hope .. there's a lot to achieve and you sure will achieve all of it for sure .. just keep going and don't give up.. you can do it ❤️
Hey, I was in the same spot when I was your age and it took me longer than I want to admit to actually get help. I used to go on crash diets to try to lose weight and it would always come back and I would feel so shameful. A couple years ago I got linked with a dietician who coached me. I learned that my lack of control, was actually about me trying to put rules on what I can and can’t eat, what’s good and what’s bad. I was in a cycle. It’s more complicated than that, which you know. You know how intense it feels and how much the guilt weighs on you when you binge. You don’t have to feel like that. I wish I could teach you what I know now and save you from many years of struggle ❤💕 I can give you a book recommendation, but if you’re anything like me, you’ll have a visceral reaction in not wanting to read it. Let me know if you want it. I’ll be rooting for you stranger
I’m in that spot rn, and I’m slowly starting to try to eat less and healthier and to work out. I hope you and I can look back at ourselves in the future and see how far we’ve gone
I'm 15 and in the same position. I have slowly gained weight over the past few years and my relationship with food and body image has gotten out of control. I am constantly disappointed in myself for letting myself get to this point. I'm terrified that I'll never mend my relationship with food and this is something that will impact me for the rest of my life, which is something that caused heavy depression and suicidal thoughts for me. Seeing videos like this and comments like yours do help, though, because I feel like I'm not alone
i LOVE LOVE how she immediately put the “do not compare you body weight to mine.” i have a habit of automatically doing that and she caught me before i could catch myself
Are you sure? I’m in a mess right now over having two off days thinking I’ve ruined everything, I’ve been doing monthly weigh ins and worry I’m not loosing much
Omg I read this after having 4 rest days😂😂and your right!! I worked out today and felt great and as long as you don’t give up completely you will feel amazing!
@@elliemcc4648 don’t worry I had 4 off days but just keep going progress is progress and if you give up you’ll regret it in the long run if you stick to it you’ll be happy you did!!
@@elliemcc4648 but you can do it again :D It is ok, sometimes we just can't keep going because we are humans, in the end we are tired or just sad. We can't give up on ourselves :)
2 years ago I watched this video when I was 165 pounds. I had been wanting to lose weight for awhile but I had no motivation. But after watching this video I had gained all the motivation I needed to actually take action on it. As of now I am 105 pounds, Thank you so much :)
@@aeshhhh8940 I ran every morning and and was in a slight calorie deficit. Another thing was I picked up sports and spent 3-4 hours at practice 5 days a week. I also hit the gym on the days I wasn’t at practice.
@@literallylondonn yep it was perfectly healthy I just incorporated a lot more physical activity into my daily routine with a slight calorie deficit. Overall losing 60 pounds in 2 years isnt too crazy or drastic.
“Even my sweats are starting to get tight on me…” this hit me hard on a different level. The most crushing part of my weight gain was my clothes that I loved beginning to fit me differently. It sucks
Same 😢 I am going through this right now. I have a lot of cute summer dresses I can no longer wear. Fashion is a passion for me and my sense of style is the only thing I feel confident about. So this is devastating. And I keep getting bigger and bigger 😭
this! i have never been so sad to relate and hear this from others. i used to love these pair of jeans and wore them almost every day to school but a year later, i feel so exposed and uncomfortable wearing them. i really hope you find peace with your body and its never too late to start, its just about the perseverance.
Thousands, even millions of people have experienced or are experiencing what she experienced through out the journey. She's not overreacting, she's not toxic, that was her fighting her own monster to achieve peacefulness within her heart. I love how she shared her hardships and what she has gain after all of it. Thank you!
All of that is very real! Everyone in life has to fight their monster within themselves, and flee the bad habits. And during the long journey... Don't forget to protect your loved ones from yourself... because you won't only destroy yourself, you'll destroy everything around you that matters the most
I think a lot of people call it toxic because its so new to hear, no one ever talks about it like she does, even if they think it themselves, its not what they want to hear. I never once thought it was toxic watching, I felt relief that I'm not the only one going through all this. It's a lifelong battle for me and I'm 31 now, still struggling and feeling those demons. its freaking ahrd. She is inspiring!

Someone in the comments said "You choose how YOU feel in your own body. She did not feel okay in hers, so she changed it. What is wrong with that? This is her diary, it's not instruction for you how to feel about your body." This is what this series is about. This is not for the viewers to FOLLOW. This is for the viewers to be INSPIRED. Just because Alivia achieved a "model body" does NOT mean she did not also learn to have a better relationship with food. With the hard work that she put in after suffering for so long, she achieved the body SHE wanted. I don't have an ED but I still struggle a lot with food and my eating habits. Alivia gives me hope and a place to start my journey.
Agreed, but I think it is important to also work on navigating one's relationship with oneself. Like her said in the end of the video, we all need to learn to enjoy the journey itself, rather than only looking at the result. Enjoying the journey means loving yourself every single day because it is you who are on that journey.
I think many more have a problem with that part with the guy advertising his work out plan and explaining the “science”, which isn’t real and is oversimplified, and can cause people to begin a eating disorder especially since the target audience of Alivias videos are young impressionable women. I don’t blame Alivia she seems like she’s going through something mentally tough but this information and the power she has over her audience makes this video very alarming
I love your channel! I'm curious what you think of this video and how she's presenting her journey. ObesetoBeast did a reaction video that raises a lot of questions.
I’m 11 and I’m crying watching this I realized that I’m beautiful the way I am and I’m not gonna try to lose weight for anyone else except me. This rlly helped me. I’ve tried to work out and stuff but I always quit when my mom or dad gets food that’s not healthy for me. Cause I feel so bad if I don’t eat it.
Don’t push yourself, people at your age need food to grow and function, if you don’t get fed right at that age you’ll have consequences later on in life, food is good for you
Just like the other 2 comments I'll add something, Try to fill your diet with as much Protein and Nutrition rich food as possible(possible as in controlled manner) as you are still growing you need those for Height and muscle and above all for your overall health, be active. one step at a time no need to change your self overnight make it a life style not a one time thing, it's ok to eat fast food but it's not ok to make it a life style, not all calories are the same.😀
"You don't want the shortcut, you want the journey." This really clicked with me and was something I needed to hear. Thank you for sharing your story:)
If a person tries to watch only season 1 it's actually pretty toxic and may harm others. But watching it as a whole(all seasons) really shows The Truth. Many on YT just show the process as a straight line I'm happy she's showing ups & downs and teaches not to give up no matter what.
If only people knew how many times i cry in changing rooms in stores after not finding something that fits me. Or after seeing how my body looks like. This is so inspiring. It is not about losing weight , it is a very long journey .
Really I can feel u...I hope u r better now, but I m still in that situation.....so I hope I can also be successful in my weight loss......ok bye....lots of love from Assam Northeast India 💕
Me too, my brother, my mom and i went out with one of the elders of the church to shop and i had to wear some clothes in front of her so that she can see if it fits because she was the one choosing the clothes which was totally embarrassing, she left my bro to pick whatever he likes at the second floor. What made me feel so bad is that instead of her to pick the sizes I usually wear she picked size 18 for me and i felt soo bad. After she paid for the clothes she started talking about my weight. I cried home throughout the day and felt so depressed whenever I saw the clothes hanging in my closet. My mom didn't make it easy for me too. As I was changing back at the mall she kept saying that the elder doesn't know how huge I am. I felt terrible and I felt the pain so much. I cried so much that my bed and pillow was soaked with my tears.
@@liarose7590 that is very sad. We all have been there. I am still there. The keys is to accept yourself the way you are the way you look , than you can change yourself to the best . Remember strength is born from weakness . You have to be weak first to be strong in the future. Change yourself because you want to be healthier and to be in a good shape and to live in a healthy live style💜
same here I’ve never really binge ate before and lately bc I’ve been going through a lot and I’ve been really depressed my coping mechanism became binge eating and now im having a hard time stopping but weighing myself I’ve been the biggest I’ve ever been and I feel so ugly but ur right it’s time to make a change thank u for making me feel like im not the only one 🤍
I’ve never seen a “weight loss” video that hit me like this. I’ve been using food like a drug basically, as a way to relive the stress at the end of the day. I don’t want to use food in a way that makes me feel good temporarily but hurts my body… I want it to fuel me.
Same here. Food/sugar addict for 15 years. I feel like I finally clicked thanks to my nutritionist/personal trainer. I only wanted the personal training but she didn't give me a choice, she said I had to change my food habits, and of course I already knew this, but the fact that she is so strict and asks me to show her my food diary every time we meet, somehow makes me stick to a diet for the first time! The food diary is like a report card that I have to hand to a parent and I'm anxious for their reaction. It's absolutely ridiculous, when you think about it, because I wanna get healthy FOR ME, not for someone else. It's not rational at all, but we humans tend to be much less rational than we would like 😂 I hope you will find your way to change, good luck!
@@absbrianna Cool! Let me know how it works out ;) To be sure: before going to the nutritionist, I was doing what I called a 'gradual diet' where I gradually made healthier choices. The biggest hack for me to escape the sugar addiction was to choose ONE high-sugar snack, not my favorite one, but just one that I thought tasted 'pretty OK': for one week, that snack was my ONLY snack but I ate as much as I wanted. I actually gained weight by doing this, but after doing this, it became much easier to replace this unhealthy snack with a healthier one (low cal fruit yoghurt with sugar-free muesli). That was the first step of my gradual diet and I would recommend it to people who cannot quit sugar cold turkey. I wish you good luck!

@@aliviadandrea omg Of course your body and mental transformation is absolutely incredible as well !! I just wanted to say your work in series 1 and the new one is beautiful ❤️ thankyou for sharing such an intimate part of your life
They say that this will trigger people with eating disorders which of course I know, there's the binge eating there and addiction to food. But like the go as far to tell her that she has an eating disorder because she's on a fitness journey. Is almost as like her weight loss and glow up offended them. And TBH the only thing that triggers me more is those comments saying because she's on a "fitness journey she has an ED" like I'm into fitness too and a lot of people don't know how hard it is with people always saying to you that you look anorexic or too skinny just because you take care of your health, those people need to be stopped ❌❌❌❌🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🔪
People like you are why the world is on fire. Fucking enabler. Of course they k ow it’s real life, that’s why they’re giving advice. Y’all gotta learn the difference between being “mean” and being critical. Fucking dummy. Now that’s me being BOTH.
People never talk about how psychologically difficult it is to lose weight. Trust me I know. My highest weight was 180 (I stand at 5 foot 5) and currently I'm at 136. It's alot of work. Stick with what works.
@@Plutoliz honestly keeping a food journal works wonders because you get to see how much you eat and when you keep sticking to it the pounds shed off on its own. I do exercise but it's mostly diet that kept the weight off and stayed off
@@Plutoliz cardio! I lost 40lbs the summer between sophomore and junior year of hs. Start off small like walking on the treadmill for 15 min a day (although I started off by doing an hr everyday) and gradually work your way up to being able to jog for a little bit. I also recommend body weight exercises to build strength while you lose fat
I saw some comments saying that some people calling her " toxic" but this is reality i experience this as well. You cant sleep fat and wake up slim and productive. She shows her life struggles and how she cope with these struggles and turned it into a motivation. :(
@@bee2514 Well, I'm talking as someone with an ed. For us, food it's already a weakness, you know? The thing is that what she means is not that she's "weak" when she eats, but she feels unhappy, which droves her to feel weak. That's something comun. She was able to reconcile with food, and that's the encouraging part. She might still be into ed (it's really difficult to get out), but she's able to be in a healthier relationship with food, which it's a huge deal.
@@didy9488 i’m also talking as someone with an ed lmao. her content is just triggering and she has no reason to document her methods and thought process
@@sav5746 honestly facts. Never happy with the way we are. I’m not fake on social media. That’s why I don’t have it. Besides TH-cam. I’m not going to pretend I’m happy. I’ll either tell the truth or won’t post haha.. my family always said “you share too much.” “No one needs to know that.” I’m just honest so people don’t think my like is all flowers and gum drops lol..

@@erenikorllos9747 66,6 kg Edit: GUYS!! You shouldn't worry too much about this. Weight is just a number, it doesn't define who you are! There are many things more important than your weight. Please be more positive! If you don't feel good about yourself, it's time to change that! Take advantage of 2021 and start your journey. It doesn't matter what kind of goal you want to achieve, but start now! *0 excuses.*
Literally everywhere (or almost everywhere, cause I haven’t done research on it) in the world uses kgs except Americans. 😂😂😂😂 I also had to use a calculator, I’m African 😂
I swear Asian parents always think reverse psychology works but it just ends up being hurtful and demotivating, atleast for me it was. **Edit** it seems that it's not just Asian parents but more of a generational thing? Maybe parents born in the 50's up to 70's think that reverse psychology works?
My jaw dropped when you revealed your transformation. I’m a stranger, but I’m SO proud of you. Yes for your physical transformation but more for your mental. That’s the hardest part. Thank you for sharing your journey and being so vulnerable. This was a beautiful video.
This hit home. Im speechless. For the first time, it feels like someoen understands. I was really trying. I promise. I have been working so hard for years and it feels like someone acknowledged it
Bro, i tried & tried & failed for 3 yrs until i finally did it. I've been at my goal weight/bf percentage for more than 12 yrs now. Never stop trying mate
this video is absolutely everything. i cannot explain to you how badly i can relate to this video. i feel like i may be at the part of my journey where things are starting to click. it's that "keep going" thing... when you keep going for so long, mess up try again, mess up try again, it really does eventually click, and you mess up less, and less, and LESS :)
The Glow Up Diaries was SCRIPTED. She planned the whole thing. It's just like acting in a series. She was skinny before, got fat, ugly or whatever. Filmed it, edited it and made it somewhat emotional for young girls. There was no glow up. The purpose of this series was not help or inspire people. She did all these just to EARN MONEY. JUST that. Yes it should be on Netflix because it's all acting 🥱. Relatable queen my f o o t. It was just a sad soap opera. Every episode was negative and destructive. It didn't teach anything. It was just "The Struggle Diaries" NOT the "Glow the f up" diaries. The title is misleading. The series is COMPLETELY misleading.
This literally happened to me. I was normal to chubby. Then I started to try losing weight. I ended up being extremely unhealthy and gained SO MUCH weight. It was insane. I lost a good portion of that weight and I'm still working on losing more 💕 this video is so real.
Tw: ED. Same thing happened to me when I was around 10 I was super skinny then puberty hit me like a freight train and made me gain a shit ton of weight and by 11 I decided to eat only fruit and small potions which led me to underrated and get an eating disorder which now fucked up my metabolism but I’m trying to lose weight in a healthy way and not over some stupid boy
I’m also dieting and lost 5-6kg this is my second month of diet and sometimes i just can’t resist and explode like I’m eating -1000 ckal a day and then 3000 and the next day -1000 again , idk if I will keep loosing weight this way 😭😭🤯
I feel like I've been on a weight loss journey my entire adult life and it's so damn depressing! I'm 30 and still suffering. And when I finally started losing weight and getting healthy, I ended up in a very bad relationship and went back to my old ways😭
@@thekaren1111 I was never naturally thin, but I was smaller than I am now. I just turned 30. Ppl can lose weight Even after 3p😒 and 1 bad relationship doesn't mean I'm insecure n shit. He was diagnosed with narcissism later on. And just like most narcissists, they'll act like the perfect guy in the beginning to reel you in. When I gained weight, I could literally feel the difference. I don't want to lose weight because society likes skinny ppl. I want to lose weight so I can feel healthy. Doesn't have shit to do with self esteem😒
"It's not about perfection, it's about effort. And when you bring that effort every day, no matter how big or small, that's when transformation happens."
can we talk about how much happier she looks now... like yesh she lost weight and looks better but that doesn’t make her happier. She literally rewired her brain and stayed resilient to be healthier and have a healthy relationships with food. GIRL YOU ARE MY INSPIRATION. Ive watched you cry and binge and starve and you did it
@@evandeer440 Your delusional. She didn't get happy because she got skinny. IF you read what I said at all, I said that she is happy because she is healthy, not because she lost weight.
@@evandeer440 u can be too skinny. Being rly skinny can kill u. One reason she is happier may be bc she is happy with her appearance but that’s not the whole story.
@@evandeer440 you aren’t healthy when your skinny either, as someone with anorexia i would understand that body type doesn’t always show health. Alivia was not unhealthy bc she didn’t have her ideal body, she wasn’t fat at all tbh. She was unhealthy bc of her habits with food
I came to this video intending to purposefully trigger my anorexia bc I felt that I've been "losing progress" lately. Instead this video held a mirror up and showed me exactly why that mindset is unhealthy. I'm trying to recover, and it's videos like this that help me realize exactly how dangerous this is. I'm so glad you managed to get healthy and push past disordered eating as you did it
I realized because I am same as her age and i feel like a disappointment to my self cuz she has been so hard working and got her desired goals and I am still on the level one Edit : i am not give any hate towards her its just i am not good enough she is pretty hard working💙 Thank you guys For the love i think I am going to be a more better person than today these supporting comments are so nice that its making me emotional and its make me strong at the same time love you guys and i know we will make it💓
@@naesjpg yea but they know more and can give you personalized workouts and help on a more personal level than the help you would get from the internet
@@creestal5043 I’ve lost 40kg on my own, I didn’t need a personal trainer, if they know more than me then good for them but as long as someone finds what works for them that’s all they need for success. It’s not necessary to pay a trainer for information you’ll figure out on your own
i thought the same thing at first. but you can and you WILL be the person to motivate other people around you. once they see your transformation, they'll know that they can do it too. you just need to keep pushing❤️you got this:))
Awe :( You can still go out! What matters is that you try your hardest. If you know this isn’t your final form, then it’s a journey. You can’t judge an artist on half-finished work, and people can’t judge you since you’re not done.
When she showed her results I didn’t just see weight loss I saw confidence and happiness and was so happy for her, her journey makes me want better for myself.
I lost 10kg during early quarantine. And yes I stopped doing my workout and binge eating again and I gained weight again and yes it was depressing. I'm here doing my weight loss journey AGAIN. this video motivates me alot. I will never stop 😭
@@noura_a_ I find HIIT workouts really effective! Walking and running also really helps 😁 you could do anywhere from 5 min of workout to 1 hour or even more.
I don't judge her because I've had an ED before, and I swear it became a deathly cycle, the worst part of it is when people don't take you seriously or think you can eat normally whenever you want. Alivia is such a brave girl
Lmao many have said her parents are toxic and stuff but really parents can be really clueless :/ and in my case it’s the same and it’s just to take it and.. it’s really hard for me to not break down every time lmao
@Laura Die Waldfee they aren't fat shaming her. She has expressed she is not happy with what she looks like and they are trying to help her better herself. Heck even the VIEWERS can see how sad she is with how she feels in her body. This video literally shows you how gross she felt and unmotivated she was and now she feels better.
Can we just take a moment and appreciate how far Alivia has come and how much effort she puts in everything!? She is such a hard worker. Get some sleep girl, you deserve it.
what lmfao this video is a huge ad for this zim guy and she pushed the upload date back like 4 times because she wasnt finished. she's everything but a hard worker
There r people out there saying that alivia’s videos r “toxic” and “give out wrong information” but she is one of the only people who actually is real and puts herself out there for us to see and learn
It's mainly because this reminds them that they're supposed to take up healthy eating habits and work out instead of being out of control and unhealthy especially when overweight people get covid complications more easily. They feel called out and they don't like it.
@@tinag7506 i actually think that's not super true. people are angry because it's glorifying having a perfect body (especially the thumbnail) when it should be more focused on developing a healthy lifestyle. the way she perceived her body (such as fat = lazy, ugly and inadequate, etc) before she started working on it promotes having a negative body image. it's important to be evaluate if your body is reflecting poor overall health, but your end goal should not be having a skinny, pretty body like the end result of alivia/the way she emphasized it. i know she tried to support eating cleaner and exercising with a trainer but her channel as a whole sends very mixed messages. but like yall stfu i still enjoyed the video, just don't assume people are criticizing her just because they feel called out. many people who are anexoric are speaking out 1. for the lack of trigger warnings and 2. they feel like some of the mssages alivia conveys along the way may lead to more problematic young having EDs
@@julia-pw8fz But thats her life. If someone feels offended because she herself doesn't like her fat body, it's their problem not hers. It's important to like your body, and if a skinny body is what she wants and needs, thats perfectly fine. It's stupid to criticize someone for their body image and goals. I'm in recovery and I don't expect the world to cater to my insecurities. Some people gotta learn this too.
@@Moonlight_Shad0w no exactly. she should've been promoting working toward a goal so you can feel comfortable in your body. and that's obviously her intention- work hard and become someone you want to become. however she didn't execute it in a way that made people feel correct. people are just giving feedback on how she can create a better online community by changing how much she tends to focus on details that may not be as important as the main message- which is her trying to motivate everyone to stay determined and disciplined to become who they want to become. and i think alivia has been addressing that, nobody wants her to stop making vids to cater to others' insecurities but i still believe that the critique wasn't necessarily other projecting insecurities, but moreso just part of the growing process of a content creator because all content creators have space to grow as a positive influence online
Yikes, the way her entire family speaks to/about her is disgusting and quite triggering. Not one bit "encouraging". I'm sure they play a huge role in her ED. It's very sad.
@@frenchxiao6306 its not reverse psychology is demeaning her because of her looks and is extreamly toxic. i know they are trying to help, but its only making shit worse
The comments from her parents made me really sad. I saw a picture of myself from a couple of years ago at my parents’ house yesterday, and my mom commented on how beautiful I looked in the picture. I rolled my eyes and said, yeah, and 30 pounds later, look at me. And she stopped me and said, that’s fine - you’re still beautiful. 🥲 Wish she could have gotten that message from her parents too. Everyone deserves those comments.
During quarantine my sister lost some weight and started exercising at home. I found last year very stressful and was more focused on my studies. I spent almost every day in front of a laptop listening to lectures. I felt so guilty that I gained weight and every time I looked at my sister exercising I felt so guilty because I didn't have the mental strength to do it myself. Honestly every time I tried to exercise I would last 2-3 days and get overwhelmed by what I consumed that day and did I give my best. I can't tell you how awful I feel when my parents tell me that I have gained weight. Like I know, I'm not blind. I'm obviously stressed and worried about It and i am trying to change it but i feel like i can't do it. I think I need some help but I live in a very undeveloped country and therapy isn't really a thing. And when it is an option it's really expensive.
@@eni4498 Hi, you’re not weak for gaining weight, focus on your health - and that includes mental health. Take all the time you need and I wish you good luck!
@@solus8685 I’m so sorry I’ve never been validated by my parents either, you’re already beautiful (being beautiful is not just outer appearance)but if you work on loving/validating yourself you’ll feel beautiful 🥺❣️x
@@as-hj1et Hi! I know I’m just a stranger, but I appreciate you. Please try to take little steps to get better mentally and don’t ever feel weak for struggling. Good luck!
When she cried about losing i can relate so much too, its not stupid i know how you feel.. I’ve struggled all my life since i was a child and I’m 18 now sometimes i just want to die tbh... like my family calls me fat every single day
Did you tell them how you felt, and it hurt your feelings? Maybe they thought calling you that name was supposed to motivate you to achieve your goal (Well I can't say that because I don't know them). I think you can shut their mouths, and when they say something that brings you down, go somewhere else because they most likely don't deserve your attention. Or! ROAST THEM WITH YOUR WORDS 😉😉😉😉
@@StrongFeesh91 yes, my mother says its for my wellbeing. but honestly i get it, i wanna lose weight but its hard because they’re constantly bringing me down mentally, I’ve had a panic attack today and been crying a lot its not helping :( but thank u for your kind words!! You’re amazing and ily ❤️
Everyone shitting on Steve the trainer but he literally said for her not to feel bad when she slipped up cause he doesn't want he rot have a bad relationship with food...Ed: normally when people start to be disrespectful and leave strong language on my comment I delete, but I think discourse in topics like these is good. That being said please be respectful. Thanks 🖖🏾
@@dazedcharm4897 it amuses me when people are intentionally obtuse. Processed sugar...and even eating too much fruit isn’t good for you. Like mango is a fruit and good for you but eat a whole bucket of mangos and see what happens to you. As for aesthetics, the industry that he works in and the clients that he sees, they don’t go to him to be told that they look beautiful at any size hahahaha. And if esthetics are important to Alivia let her be. Not everyone needs to be a Tess Holiday or some of these other “fat positive” “health and every size” believers. Some people just don’t like to be fat and that ok too. It’s their body. Now I can understand the point of view that it might be “triggering” to her impressionable audience, but she does reiterate quite a bit throughout the video that it’s HER journey.
Sugar (like he said, *artificial* sugar) IS bad for your body. He's not demonizing anything. He's spitting facts. Did he make Alivia feel bad for eating that stuff? No. But does he need to say it's bad (if you eat it too often)? Yes, because he's a professional.
@@jadef3657 actually I came back to edit cause I watched it and he said nothing wrong his advice was useful is tone was gentle and helpful in no way was he putting down anyone. I don’t wish to look like Chris Evans or a VS model but who’s to say that that’s not someone else’s goal. Btw all bodies have lines and symmetry, however my symmetry might not be the same as your symmetry. We shouldn’t shit on what other people want for themselves
@@CarolineGehlen I’m not gonna put words in trainer Steve’s mouth but I wouldn’t be surprised if he meant processed sugar😂😂😂 and even natural occurring sugars like found in fruits should be taken I moderation. Here’s an example were I live mangos are abundant and growing up it was normal for us to have two three mangos a day. In one of those mangos there is 31 grams of sugar, 31x3= 93 grams of sugar. On average we should be consuming about 30 grams of sugar per day and this is just for someone who does moderate levels of activity throughout their day. So that’s three times the amount of sugar I’m supposed to be consuming for the day natural or otherwise. Plus trainer Steve isn’t wrong 🤷🏽♀️
Just gonna write this to say this is gonna be day one of my journey and I wonder what the future holds for me lol! if anybody sees this please like so when I'm going through this journey i could comment and say "I did it" or "I failed" UTRE ME DONT GIV UP!"
She has a ed and it goes both ways. How fixated she is on her weight... her family thinks she's healthy bc she's skinny but her relationship with food is bad obviously
it’s point blank cruel and manipulative no matter how you spin it. there’s tough love and then there’s just whatever..THAT was. EDIT: I realize she asked her parents to, but it seems unproductive and more harmful. I bet her family cares for a lot about her and are well intentioned, but when saying things like “cute girl in swollen body”, “chubby’s diner” (in ep1) “you’ll never be able to do this” are commonplace, it wears you down.
the way she said don’t compare her body weight to our own in the beginning and I would still have no clue about how much that is because the only measurement I can comprehend is kg 👁👄👁 Edit: although I still wanna say to Alivia, this is a really incredible video, and I’m really happy for her that she found a happier place within herself❤️
I want to start weight training but I’m just 15 yr old who can’t even go to the gym cuz I’m not allowed to go out and my mom is always busy to take me anywhere
@@ananyadutta1154 I said “nobody’s coming to save you. You have to save yourself.” at 4:46 . Then I show the story of how I went to a celebrity fitness trainer and still didn’t achieve my goals. My 18 year old self always thought that if I just had a personal trainer, all my problems would be solved. A personal trainer is extremely motivational but it’s not enough. The key ingredient is your own mindset. The lesson I learned is that you can get the best help and resources in the world, but it does not guarantee success. It is still ultimately up to you to achieve your goals.
" you are beautiful in every way" Lol don't make me laugh 😂 Being unhealthy and obsessed with food is not beautiful 😐 we all know that. She is doing an amazing job by showing us her journey and helping those who want to change🥰 💜
I love how you were more upset about the thanksgiving “cheat” day than Steve was. He explained it pretty well. At the beginning of this video, I didn’t see a chubby girl. I saw a healthy lean girl. But because your relationship with food changed, your body started to change. This proofs to me that healthy weight loss isn’t about how much you work out or how less you eat. It’s basically about your relationship with food and your body. If you have a healthy relationship where you take care of your body it will have a positive effect on weight loss.
So trueee, I saw myself as fat for years, body dysmorphia since 11, and then I put on weight as a result of my weird relationship with food during high school due to stress/binge eating
it's really refreshing to see a trainer like Steve not shame you for a cheat day and encouraging a good relationship with food. thank you for sharing this
i have a personal grudge against the other weight loss youtubers. they act like they lost everything at once and never struggled or gained some weight during their journey and it really discouraged me. during my weight loss journey, my weight kept going up and down and seeing all these people document their weight loss as if they lost everything so easily without getting off of track made me really upset. when i came across alivias videos, i felt really good about myself knowing that im not the only one that gives into binges and cravings
I have suffered from a form of this self-hatred/disappointment my whole life. I have done unthinkable things to my healthy body simply because it didnt look the way I wanted it to. I am a mom now and my body changed but I think motherhood has healed me somehow. I am grateful I have the body Im in. It has given me so much, so many beautiful walks, has allowed me to feel sweet kisses and hugs, see glorious sunsets and bear healthy children. Now instead of trying to change it, I honor it. I feed it well and take walks and lift weights and run the beach with my children.
@@xoxosisihere hey, I don’t think that’s how this person meant it. To all the boys is a Netflix show, it was an example. But we are all free to have our own opinions, including you. I just think maybe you took it out of context?
I have watched so many weight loss journey vids but yours touched me the most..maybe becuz i relate so much to every cycle of events you have went through..i starve and lose weight then i binge and surprise im the same as before..as if there is no getting out of this vicious cycle. I hope i can get back to an healthy routine....
me too, i am the same. I'm sure we can do it, 100% sure, but we have to really put effort and patience. and to not hate ourselves. I really wish you the best
@@angeluz6074 try intermittent fasting it’s the easiest way to lose body fat in my experience of losing ~20+kg from 95-> 73kg still losing weight my goal is 70kg if you need any tips I’m more than happy to spread the knowledge :)
I do fasting every other day, it helps. One day I’ll drink just water, the next I’ll eat whatever. I’ve lost 8 pounds in like 5 days. Also I’m adding 300-500 crunches with a 3 min plank everyday! I think it’s working

I cried watching this. It’s the only fitness video ive found that actually discusses the pain of binge eating, failing, getting back up, and all the self hatred. Thank you SO much for sharing. I’ve felt very alone with this for so long.

You aren't alone. I relate to you
Same with my family always reminding that I was fat, but I really don’t feel alone anymore
My god it's like the video is my life story in weight loss. I've been trying to lose weight for years. I've hated my body since I was 11, but only tried to lose weight at 14. It went well. But then it spiralled. Things kept happening, I got kicked out of my mum's, she left and went to another country, so I lived with my dad. Then my mum came back when I was 16, I moved in again, she kicked me out again, she left to another country again, I was left in England. I got cancer, it has ruined my speech and confidence to this day. After that, I fell into depression. My mum came back to England when I was 17, and I went to live in Cyprus with her. That's when I got my eating disorder. It was the only way I could cope. I went from 61kg to 53kg in a matter of less than 2 months. I had bulimia, and atypical anorexia. When we went back to England (I was 18), I decided I didn't want to live with her anymore. I went to live with my dad. After everything that happened, I started to gain weight. I started to binge. Hard. I felt like a failure. I tried to lose weight again, failed. Then I had an ed relapse, which was in February 2020. Then I tried to lose weight again. And again. And again.
I've realised that I can't let my eating disorder do what it wants. I have to take weight loss slow, or I'll fall back into binge eating.
During the 2020 lockdown, I went up to 70kg. Anyway, I yo-yo'd back and forth between 58 and 65kg for the next year, it felt like torture.
Now, 2022, 20 years old. I'm learning to love myself no matter what I look like, but to also care for the body I love. I'm now 54.3kg and man, does it feel good to lose weight slowly. Being consistent really works. I'm going to start cardio soon, then weights. I kind of want a gym membership ngl.
Same here, just know that you’re NEVER alone
i can’t believe how realistic this is. every other video on glow up is just so unrealistic.
right its so comforting i hopes she knows how many people she helps and its impossible to please everyone
@dawn run not for everyone no but you basically have to learn to be your own motivation/trainer besides even with the trainer she didnt succeed at first you have to do the hard work yourseld
I agree
Well other glow ups just show the hard work and the results just like it's supposed to be, I haven't seem one who ever has said "oh no I didn't had a bad time neither failures" (this right there would be unrealistic).
To glow up she basically focused on the real issues (mental health and persistence) and then boom it happened. I don't really know what you mean by saying the others are unrealistics fr...

I understand this. Especially the “only chubby girl in the family” because I’m that girl. All my siblings are skinny and I hate being the only chubby one, even my friends. I have tried to lose weight but I gave up right after. But now I’m not going to and I WILL lose weight. For me and my 15 year old self. Like they say it’s either one day or day one.

Truee
Yeees
Yes
I watched your most recent video ''how glowing up ruined me'' first, then I watched this video. And its sad to see that most people in the comments lack self worth. They dont feel worthy of themselves when they dont fit into society's standards, thats really sad to see. As I just watched the video you uploaded a day ago, I saw that once you gain weight again you start to feel like a failure. If you dont break this cycle from losing weight subsequently gain weight again to feeling insecure its going to keep repeating, and trust me you really dont want that. So I shortly want to tell what I did. I first began with loving myself and accepting the way I am afterwards I started cutting out bad habits like binge eating etc. I absolutely didn't starve myself, heck no, but I replaced sugary processed foods with healthy ones. I did all of this to be healthy and not to fit in society's standards. I slowly started working out. I didn't rush the process, otherwise I would eventually give up and gain weight again. Slowly I became the healthiest version of myself, without burning out.
This comment deserves so much more recognition. Skinny is not the end goal. Building yourself into the healthiest version of yourself is. And binging is a clear sign you struggle with a healthy sustainable nutrition plan.
I just did the same thing!
I'm also in this process. I changed foods but I still haven't had the strength to start exercising. I was already charging myself, these 2 videos and your comment helped me!
i came here after watching that video as well. you worded my exact same feelings, couldn't have said it any better.
exactly! Cause you shouldn't lose weight bc you want to fit in the ''standards'' believe me, its almost impossible to fit in society's standards these days. If you really want to lose weight your goal should be ''being a healthy person'' cause even if you wouldn't get ''the dream body'', you would still succeed at being the healthiest version of yourself and that is what really matters.@@beeshep

Hey, I was in the same spot when I was your age and it took me longer than I want to admit to actually get help. I used to go on crash diets to try to lose weight and it would always come back and I would feel so shameful. A couple years ago I got linked with a dietician who coached me. I learned that my lack of control, was actually about me trying to put rules on what I can and can’t eat, what’s good and what’s bad. I was in a cycle. It’s more complicated than that, which you know. You know how intense it feels and how much the guilt weighs on you when you binge. You don’t have to feel like that. I wish I could teach you what I know now and save you from many years of struggle ❤💕 I can give you a book recommendation, but if you’re anything like me, you’ll have a visceral reaction in not wanting to read it. Let me know if you want it. I’ll be rooting for you stranger
I’m in that spot rn, and I’m slowly starting to try to eat less and healthier and to work out. I hope you and I can look back at ourselves in the future and see how far we’ve gone

I am constantly disappointed in myself for letting myself get to this point. I'm terrified that I'll never mend my relationship with food and this is something that will impact me for the rest of my life, which is something that caused heavy depression and suicidal thoughts for me. Seeing videos like this and comments like yours do help, though, because I feel like I'm not alone

All of that is very real! Everyone in life has to fight their monster within themselves, and flee the bad habits. And during the long journey... Don't forget to protect your loved ones from yourself... because you won't only destroy yourself, you'll destroy everything around you that matters the most

Someone in the comments said "You choose how YOU feel in your own body. She did not feel okay in hers, so she changed it. What is wrong with that? This is her diary, it's not instruction for you how to feel about your body." This is what this series is about. This is not for the viewers to FOLLOW. This is for the viewers to be INSPIRED. Just because Alivia achieved a "model body" does NOT mean she did not also learn to have a better relationship with food. With the hard work that she put in after suffering for so long, she achieved the body SHE wanted. I don't have an ED but I still struggle a lot with food and my eating habits. Alivia gives me hope and a place to start my journey.
Agreed, but I think it is important to also work on navigating one's relationship with oneself. Like her said in the end of the video, we all need to learn to enjoy the journey itself, rather than only looking at the result. Enjoying the journey means loving yourself every single day because it is you who are on that journey.
I think many more have a problem with that part with the guy advertising his work out plan and explaining the “science”, which isn’t real and is oversimplified, and can cause people to begin a eating disorder especially since the target audience of Alivias videos are young impressionable women. I don’t blame Alivia she seems like she’s going through something mentally tough but this information and the power she has over her audience makes this video very alarming
I totally agree! Finally somebody spoke up!
good

I love your channel! I'm curious what you think of this video and how she's presenting her journey. ObesetoBeast did a reaction video that raises a lot of questions.
I love your channel so much Kiana
Me: obstacles? No thanks....
It's crazy how your whole face changed as you lost weight. I definitely need to start loosing some weight cause ik curious to see what I'd look like.
sameee
frr, but I feel like I'd look the same as my younger self
Ive always been overweight my whole life so I'm really interested into seeing what I'd look like
@@onyxtheeempress9298 you Got this!
SAME
I’m 11 and I’m crying watching this I realized that I’m beautiful the way I am and I’m not gonna try to lose weight for anyone else except me. This rlly helped me. I’ve tried to work out and stuff but I always quit when my mom or dad gets food that’s not healthy for me. Cause I feel so bad if I don’t eat it.
Don’t push yourself, people at your age need food to grow and function, if you don’t get fed right at that age you’ll have consequences later on in life, food is good for you
@@mazapann1 thank you!
Just like the other comment, at your age it’s normal to eat more because you’re still growing. Don’t push yourself too much love ❤️
Just like the other 2 comments I'll add something, Try to fill your diet with as much Protein and Nutrition rich food as possible(possible as in controlled manner) as you are still growing you need those for Height and muscle and above all for your overall health, be active. one step at a time no need to change your self overnight make it a life style not a one time thing, it's ok to eat fast food but it's not ok to make it a life style, not all calories are the same.😀
please seek guidance if possible.

@@GardenTipsGuru i still didnt lose weight either. Hope some day i would be proud of myself. Thank you so much for your kind message 💜
Me too, my brother, my mom and i went out with one of the elders of the church to shop and i had to wear some clothes in front of her so that she can see if it fits because she was the one choosing the clothes which was totally embarrassing, she left my bro to pick whatever he likes at the second floor. What made me feel so bad is that instead of her to pick the sizes I usually wear she picked size 18 for me and i felt soo bad. After she paid for the clothes she started talking about my weight. I cried home throughout the day and felt so depressed whenever I saw the clothes hanging in my closet. My mom didn't make it easy for me too. As I was changing back at the mall she kept saying that the elder doesn't know how huge I am. I felt terrible and I felt the pain so much. I cried so much that my bed and pillow was soaked with my tears.
@@liarose7590 that is very sad. We all have been there. I am still there. The keys is to accept yourself the way you are the way you look , than you can change yourself to the best . Remember strength is born from weakness . You have to be weak first to be strong in the future. Change yourself because you want to be healthier and to be in a good shape and to live in a healthy live style💜

You Got this! I'm rooting for you!!

you’ve got this! Wish you the best ❤️
Christian Wood thank you so much, you have no idea how much I appreciate this ❤️ I will definitely keep u updated !
same here I’ve never really binge ate before and lately bc I’ve been going through a lot and I’ve been really depressed my coping mechanism became binge eating and now im having a hard time stopping but weighing myself I’ve been the biggest I’ve ever been and I feel so ugly but ur right it’s time to make a change thank u for making me feel like im not the only one 🤍
the fact is she wasn’t even the that fat.. she’s was skinny
Right like that is my dream 😭I’m trying to be her size
I’ve never seen a “weight loss” video that hit me like this. I’ve been using food like a drug basically, as a way to relive the stress at the end of the day. I don’t want to use food in a way that makes me feel good temporarily but hurts my body… I want it to fuel me.
Same here. Food/sugar addict for 15 years. I feel like I finally clicked thanks to my nutritionist/personal trainer. I only wanted the personal training but she didn't give me a choice, she said I had to change my food habits, and of course I already knew this, but the fact that she is so strict and asks me to show her my food diary every time we meet, somehow makes me stick to a diet for the first time! The food diary is like a report card that I have to hand to a parent and I'm anxious for their reaction. It's absolutely ridiculous, when you think about it, because I wanna get healthy FOR ME, not for someone else. It's not rational at all, but we humans tend to be much less rational than we would like 😂
I hope you will find your way to change, good luck!
@@soybean3423 I might try this, thank you so much!
@@absbrianna Cool! Let me know how it works out ;)
To be sure: before going to the nutritionist, I was doing what I called a 'gradual diet' where I gradually made healthier choices. The biggest hack for me to escape the sugar addiction was to choose ONE high-sugar snack, not my favorite one, but just one that I thought tasted 'pretty OK': for one week, that snack was my ONLY snack but I ate as much as I wanted. I actually gained weight by doing this, but after doing this, it became much easier to replace this unhealthy snack with a healthier one (low cal fruit yoghurt with sugar-free muesli). That was the first step of my gradual diet and I would recommend it to people who cannot quit sugar cold turkey.
I wish you good luck!

And TBH the only thing that triggers me more is those comments saying because she's on a "fitness journey she has an ED" like I'm into fitness too and a lot of people don't know how hard it is with people always saying to you that you look anorexic or too skinny just because you take care of your health, those people need to be stopped ❌❌❌❌🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🙅🏻🔪
People like you are why the world is on fire. Fucking enabler. Of course they k ow it’s real life, that’s why they’re giving advice. Y’all gotta learn the difference between being “mean” and being critical. Fucking dummy. Now that’s me being BOTH.
This is sort of sad to watch after watching her latest video. And the comments are even more sad.
People never talk about how psychologically difficult it is to lose weight. Trust me I know. My highest weight was 180 (I stand at 5 foot 5) and currently I'm at 136. It's alot of work. Stick with what works.

@@Plutoliz honestly keeping a food journal works wonders because you get to see how much you eat and when you keep sticking to it the pounds shed off on its own. I do exercise but it's mostly diet that kept the weight off and stayed off
@@Plutoliz cardio! I lost 40lbs the summer between sophomore and junior year of hs. Start off small like walking on the treadmill for 15 min a day (although I started off by doing an hr everyday) and gradually work your way up to being able to jog for a little bit. I also recommend body weight exercises to build strength while you lose fat
5"5 too. My highest was 170 currently 159 I wanted to get to 137. It's hard specially when u hit plateaus
Oh my god I'm 5 foot 5, I'm 180 right now my highest weight too, and I want to get to about 130! Knowing you did it really helps
I saw some comments saying that some people calling her " toxic" but this is reality i experience this as well. You cant sleep fat and wake up slim and productive. She shows her life struggles and how she cope with these struggles and turned it into a motivation. :(

The Glow Up Diaries was SCRIPTED.
She planned the whole thing. It's just like acting in a series. She was skinny before, got fat, ugly or whatever. Filmed it, edited it and made it somewhat emotional for young girls. There was no glow up. The purpose of this series was not help or inspire people. She did all these just to EARN MONEY. JUST that. Yes it should be on Netflix because it's all acting 🥱. Relatable queen my f o o t. It was just a sad soap opera. Every episode was negative and destructive. It didn't teach anything. It was just "The Struggle Diaries" NOT the "Glow the f up" diaries.

Tw: ED. Same thing happened to me when I was around 10 I was super skinny then puberty hit me like a freight train and made me gain a shit ton of weight and by 11 I decided to eat only fruit and small potions which led me to underrated and get an eating disorder which now fucked up my metabolism but I’m trying to lose weight in a healthy way and not over some stupid boy
I’m also dieting and lost 5-6kg this is my second month of diet and sometimes i just can’t resist and explode like I’m eating -1000 ckal a day and then 3000 and the next day -1000 again , idk if I will keep loosing weight this way 😭😭🤯

I came to this video intending to purposefully trigger my anorexia bc I felt that I've been "losing progress" lately.

It's mainly because this reminds them that they're supposed to take up healthy eating habits and work out instead of being out of control and unhealthy especially when overweight people get covid complications more easily. They feel called out and they don't like it.
@@tinag7506 exactly
@@tinag7506 i actually think that's not super true. people are angry because it's glorifying having a perfect body (especially the thumbnail) when it should be more focused on developing a healthy lifestyle. the way she perceived her body (such as fat = lazy, ugly and inadequate, etc) before she started working on it promotes having a negative body image. it's important to be evaluate if your body is reflecting poor overall health, but your end goal should not be having a skinny, pretty body like the end result of alivia/the way she emphasized it. i know she tried to support eating cleaner and exercising with a trainer but her channel as a whole sends very mixed messages. but like yall stfu i still enjoyed the video, just don't assume people are criticizing her just because they feel called out. many people who are anexoric are speaking out 1. for the lack of trigger warnings and 2. they feel like some of the mssages alivia conveys along the way may lead to more problematic young having EDs
@@julia-pw8fz But thats her life. If someone feels offended because she herself doesn't like her fat body, it's their problem not hers. It's important to like your body, and if a skinny body is what she wants and needs, thats perfectly fine. It's stupid to criticize someone for their body image and goals. I'm in recovery and I don't expect the world to cater to my insecurities. Some people gotta learn this too.
@@Moonlight_Shad0w no exactly. she should've been promoting working toward a goal so you can feel comfortable in your body. and that's obviously her intention- work hard and become someone you want to become. however she didn't execute it in a way that made people feel correct. people are just giving feedback on how she can create a better online community by changing how much she tends to focus on details that may not be as important as the main message- which is her trying to motivate everyone to stay determined and disciplined to become who they want to become. and i think alivia has been addressing that, nobody wants her to stop making vids to cater to others' insecurities but i still believe that the critique wasn't necessarily other projecting insecurities, but moreso just part of the growing process of a content creator because all content creators have space to grow as a positive influence online
Yikes, the way her entire family speaks to/about her is disgusting and quite triggering. Not one bit "encouraging". I'm sure they play a huge role in her ED. It's very sad.

anyone here in May 2024 and cried their eyes out because they too cannot lose weight for many years
You're not alone! This feeling of failing repeatedly on our goals and lacking true will..
The comments from her parents made me really sad. I saw a picture of myself from a couple of years ago at my parents’ house yesterday, and my mom commented on how beautiful I looked in the picture. I rolled my eyes and said, yeah, and 30 pounds later, look at me. And she stopped me and said, that’s fine - you’re still beautiful. 🥲 Wish she could have gotten that message from her parents too. Everyone deserves those comments.
During quarantine my sister lost some weight and started exercising at home. I found last year very stressful and was more focused on my studies. I spent almost every day in front of a laptop listening to lectures. I felt so guilty that I gained weight and every time I looked at my sister exercising I felt so guilty because I didn't have the mental strength to do it myself. Honestly every time I tried to exercise I would last 2-3 days and get overwhelmed by what I consumed that day and did I give my best. I can't tell you how awful I feel when my parents tell me that I have gained weight. Like I know, I'm not blind. I'm obviously stressed and worried about It and i am trying to change it but i feel like i can't do it. I think I need some help but I live in a very undeveloped country and therapy isn't really a thing. And when it is an option it's really expensive.
Meanwhile my father calling me fat my entire childhood + my mom not once calling me pretty🧍♀️
@@eni4498 Hi, you’re not weak for gaining weight, focus on your health - and that includes mental health. Take all the time you need and I wish you good luck!
@@solus8685 I’m so sorry I’ve never been validated by my parents either, you’re already beautiful (being beautiful is not just outer appearance)but if you work on loving/validating yourself you’ll feel beautiful 🥺❣️x
@@as-hj1et Hi! I know I’m just a stranger, but I appreciate you. Please try to take little steps to get better mentally and don’t ever feel weak for struggling. Good luck!
When she cried about losing i can relate so much too, its not stupid i know how you feel.. I’ve struggled all my life since i was a child and I’m 18 now sometimes i just want to die tbh... like my family calls me fat every single day
i’m so sorry you don’t deserve to have to hear that,you are such a beautiful person and please d’ont listen to anyone who tells you other wise
Did you tell them how you felt, and it hurt your feelings? Maybe they thought calling you that name was supposed to motivate you to achieve your goal (Well I can't say that because I don't know them). I think you can shut their mouths, and when they say something that brings you down, go somewhere else because they most likely don't deserve your attention. Or! ROAST THEM WITH YOUR WORDS 😉😉😉😉
@@evavaughan3703 i didn’t expect anyone to reply omg thank you, u made my day and i literally before and after work today AHHA I appreciate you 😭
@REAL NOOZ Thank you so much, I am happy you are here today with us
@@StrongFeesh91 yes, my mother says its for my wellbeing. but honestly i get it, i wanna lose weight but its hard because they’re constantly bringing me down mentally, I’ve had a panic attack today and been crying a lot its not helping :( but thank u for your kind words!! You’re amazing and ily ❤️
Everyone shitting on Steve the trainer but he literally said for her not to feel bad when she slipped up cause he doesn't want he rot have a bad relationship with food...Ed: normally when people start to be disrespectful and leave strong language on my comment I delete, but I think discourse in topics like these is good. That being said please be respectful. Thanks 🖖🏾
@@jadef3657 idk I think he was just being honest, clearly he did his job bc she lost weight
@@dazedcharm4897 it amuses me when people are intentionally obtuse. Processed sugar...and even eating too much fruit isn’t good for you. Like mango is a fruit and good for you but eat a whole bucket of mangos and see what happens to you. As for aesthetics, the industry that he works in and the clients that he sees, they don’t go to him to be told that they look beautiful at any size hahahaha. And if esthetics are important to Alivia let her be. Not everyone needs to be a Tess Holiday or some of these other “fat positive” “health and every size” believers. Some people just don’t like to be fat and that ok too. It’s their body. Now I can understand the point of view that it might be “triggering” to her impressionable audience, but she does reiterate quite a bit throughout the video that it’s HER journey.
Sugar (like he said, *artificial* sugar) IS bad for your body. He's not demonizing anything. He's spitting facts. Did he make Alivia feel bad for eating that stuff? No. But does he need to say it's bad (if you eat it too often)? Yes, because he's a professional.
@@jadef3657 actually I came back to edit cause I watched it and he said nothing wrong his advice was useful is tone was gentle and helpful in no way was he putting down anyone. I don’t wish to look like Chris Evans or a VS model but who’s to say that that’s not someone else’s goal. Btw all bodies have lines and symmetry, however my symmetry might not be the same as your symmetry. We shouldn’t shit on what other people want for themselves
@@CarolineGehlen I’m not gonna put words in trainer Steve’s mouth but I wouldn’t be surprised if he meant processed sugar😂😂😂 and even natural occurring sugars like found in fruits should be taken I moderation. Here’s an example were I live mangos are abundant and growing up it was normal for us to have two three mangos a day. In one of those mangos there is 31 grams of sugar, 31x3= 93 grams of sugar. On average we should be consuming about 30 grams of sugar per day and this is just for someone who does moderate levels of activity throughout their day. So that’s three times the amount of sugar I’m supposed to be consuming for the day natural or otherwise. Plus trainer Steve isn’t wrong 🤷🏽♀️
Just gonna write this to say this is gonna be day one of my journey and I wonder what the future holds for me lol! if anybody sees this please like so when I'm going through this journey i could comment and say "I did it" or "I failed" UTRE ME DONT GIV UP!"
You got this 🫡
It makes me sad how her family talks about her appearance :(
Agreed. Its really upsetting honestly.
It was so mean.. and the way her sister spoke about her in the last episode too
Glad I’m not the only one who feels that way. I get tough love but this just felt like they were putting her down/a lack of compassion
Yes, it's honestly upsetting me too!!
She has a ed and it goes both ways. How fixated she is on her weight... her family thinks she's healthy bc she's skinny but her relationship with food is bad obviously
parents rlly think they do sum with reverse psychology...
I think she actually asked them to do so.
It works for some people, for me for example, it motivates me a lot more.
@@juliavioloniste8416 my parents do that to me aswell
Yeah lol my mum does it too and it just makes me more self destructive
it’s point blank cruel and manipulative no matter how you spin it. there’s tough love and then there’s just whatever..THAT was.
EDIT: I realize she asked her parents to, but it seems unproductive and more harmful. I bet her family cares for a lot about her and are well intentioned, but when saying things like “cute girl in swollen body”, “chubby’s diner” (in ep1) “you’ll never be able to do this” are commonplace, it wears you down.
the way she said don’t compare her body weight to our own in the beginning and I would still have no clue about how much that is because the only measurement I can comprehend is kg 👁👄👁
Edit: although I still wanna say to Alivia, this is a really incredible video, and I’m really happy for her that she found a happier place within herself❤️
2 pounds is almost 1 kg.
So 150 pounds are around 68 kg
I also had to look it up haha
@@111-s4o how many pounds needed to be 50 kg?
@@Gotnogas round about 110
True
I want to start weight training but I’m just 15 yr old who can’t even go to the gym cuz I’m not allowed to go out and my mom is always busy to take me anywhere
She can't be any more right to say "Nobody's coming to save you. You have to save yourself".
* proceeds to hire a personal trainer😂😂
Btw don’t alt me or anything in the comments, it’s just a joke
@@mhad4308 I didn't understand it at all.
@@ananyadutta1154 I said “nobody’s coming to save you. You have to save yourself.” at 4:46 . Then I show the story of how I went to a celebrity fitness trainer and still didn’t achieve my goals. My 18 year old self always thought that if I just had a personal trainer, all my problems would be solved. A personal trainer is extremely motivational but it’s not enough. The key ingredient is your own mindset. The lesson I learned is that you can get the best help and resources in the world, but it does not guarantee success. It is still ultimately up to you to achieve your goals.
@@aliviadandrea I appreciate your response. I value every word of it. How are you doing now? Thanks a lot for caring to respond.
THIS REMINDS ME OF THE MOVIE TO THE BONE
You are so cute and no one wants you to cry I am so sad please you are beautiful in every way❤️
Yeesss! I feel the same. Someone needed to say it🙏🏻
I agree 🥺
yemin ederim öyle ya irem tam ben yorum atıcaktım seni gördüm
" you are beautiful in every way" Lol don't make me laugh 😂 Being unhealthy and obsessed with food is not beautiful 😐 we all know that. She is doing an amazing job by showing us her journey and helping those who want to change🥰 💜
@@Misaki_Millia agreed. People are so blind plus they don't want to understand the Truth just because It's painful
I just weighed myself and I saw the highest number that I ever saw on the scale so I ended up on this video and now I‘m crying
Aww,it’ll be okay
@@arushi7168 thank you
wishing u all of the best in the world ♥️
Aww love you’ll be okay! Don’t focus on the scales focus on how you feel everyday and just do little things. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself
Do some squats I love squats
They want the big boobs but not the belly they also body shame us skinny women i love my small boobs but skinny shaming is way more normalized
I love how you were more upset about the thanksgiving “cheat” day than Steve was. He explained it pretty well. At the beginning of this video, I didn’t see a chubby girl. I saw a healthy lean girl. But because your relationship with food changed, your body started to change. This proofs to me that healthy weight loss isn’t about how much you work out or how less you eat. It’s basically about your relationship with food and your body. If you have a healthy relationship where you take care of your body it will have a positive effect on weight loss.
So trueee, I saw myself as fat for years, body dysmorphia since 11, and then I put on weight as a result of my weird relationship with food during high school due to stress/binge eating
it's really refreshing to see a trainer like Steve not shame you for a cheat day and encouraging a good relationship with food. thank you for sharing this
i have a personal grudge against the other weight loss youtubers. they act like they lost everything at once and never struggled or gained some weight during their journey and it really discouraged me. during my weight loss journey, my weight kept going up and down and seeing all these people document their weight loss as if they lost everything so easily without getting off of track made me really upset. when i came across alivias videos, i felt really good about myself knowing that im not the only one that gives into binges and cravings
thank you!! yes alivia is actually someone who struggles with bed like me and it really helps me to know someone else struggles with this
I have suffered from a form of this self-hatred/disappointment my whole life. I have done unthinkable things to my healthy body simply because it didnt look the way I wanted it to. I am a mom now and my body changed but I think motherhood has healed me somehow. I am grateful I have the body Im in. It has given me so much, so many beautiful walks, has allowed me to feel sweet kisses and hugs, see glorious sunsets and bear healthy children. Now instead of trying to change it, I honor it. I feed it well and take walks and lift weights and run the beach with my children.
To those who still have eating disorder, let's fight this together!
Yes! I will kick anorexia's butt
You got this! I’m proud of you every step of the way
@@marsp5636 yes you will. Praying that you have strength and peace within your body and mind.
@@marsp5636 Yes! You can do it and I’m so proud of you for trying!!

Why does this feel like a legit series on Netflix, like “To All the Food I Loved” 😂
So accurate 😂
HAHAHAHAH
Omg RIGHT
OMH. HAHAHAHAHA
@@xoxosisihere hey, I don’t think that’s how this person meant it. To all the boys is a Netflix show, it was an example. But we are all free to have our own opinions, including you. I just think maybe you took it out of context?
Im 16 and watching this video made me tear up 😭
I have watched so many weight loss journey vids but yours touched me the most..maybe becuz i relate so much to every cycle of events you have went through..i starve and lose weight then i binge and surprise im the same as before..as if there is no getting out of this vicious cycle. I hope i can get back to an healthy routine....
me too, i am the same. I'm sure we can do it, 100% sure, but we have to really put effort and patience. and to not hate ourselves. I really wish you the best
@@angeluz6074 try intermittent fasting it’s the easiest way to lose body fat in my experience of losing ~20+kg from 95-> 73kg still losing weight my goal is 70kg if you need any tips I’m more than happy to spread the knowledge :)
@@Has213 I'll try from tomorrow thank you so much 🧡
why you write “because“ like “becuz”?
I do fasting every other day, it helps. One day I’ll drink just water, the next I’ll eat whatever. I’ve lost 8 pounds in like 5 days. Also I’m adding 300-500 crunches with a 3 min plank everyday! I think it’s working
She is LITERALLY ME. Except I haven't lost all the weight yet
Kinda me
You can do this girl ❤️❤️❤️
I turned your 99 likes to 100 I don't know I just had a stupid feeling to say this lol😂😂😂😂😂
