you have no idea how much i needed this video. something bad and scary happened over the weekend and i've really been heading towards relapsing because of it. staying strong was becoming impossible, but this video came as the perfect reminder to never go back down that path of misery. what you do is incredible, linda, and we as your supporters can never thank you enough ❤️
I really hope you are feeling okay. Relapsing will not give you true control you will only be losing control you are beautiful just the way you are and you do not need to change I have also been struggling again with my eating but i just remind myself that restricting my eating does not give me true control x
I am sending you lots of love, and I hope everything is better now ❤ and here is a reminder to choose yourself everyday and never go back to a place where you are only living and not thriving and reminder too to have a little self-compassion to yourself on those hard days, and if you need another reminder I have a couple of TH-cam vlogs that I think u would find helpful
I’m 56…when I was a teenager, a friend’s mom referred to my thighs as elephant trunks…fast forward to now and I thank God that I was blessed with strong, athletic legs that enabled me to play sports all my life, run for 25 years and continue to hike mountains across the world. My piece of advice…don’t let anyone define who you are or control your mind.
Hi Linda! I'm usually not a commenter but I really wanted to thank you for your content. I've just committed to full recovery from my own food issues and one of my biggest inspirations to get better was you. Sharing all the love from a fellow peanut butter enthusiast
she is such a source of inspiration and I am sending you all the love for you to continue choosing yourself everyday bc you deserve to have a free and thriving life
@@lindasunytThank you so much for helping me love my body and feel more confident and happy! I loveeeee your amazing videos! You bring a smile to my face every single time. 🫶🫶also I love peanut butter :)
I needed this video. As a Muslim, when someone does something good for me, I pray for them sincerely. Here is my prayer for you. May God bless you. May you find joy and fulfillment. May good friends surround you and love you every day. May all your worries and insecurities fade away like dust blowing off with the wind. May you continue to find the strength it takes to make such content with such beautiful messaging. I NEEDED this Linda. Thank you. Thank you Thank you for making this video. Thank you for existing. I have been living through a VERY hard time in my life over the past few month. It's been challenging every which way. And to make it worse, parts of my body are injured. And parts are sick. And I keep trying my best everyday to keep going. But it has been HARD. Mentally. PHYSICALLY. It is a difficult time. Some of the things you said in this video resonated so much with me. By the end of the video, I'm bawling. Thank you for making this video, and all your other work. Thank you for being vulnerable. Your work and presence on this Earth is loved and needed by SO many right now. May you always be at peace. Ameen
Yess loved to see this. Ameen.And for you a Dua may Allah help you with whatever your struggling with, and grant you ease after hardship, may he reunite you and your family in jannah and may he help our brothers and sisters in Palestine granting them victory. Ameen
Linda I find it amazing how you are able to take all our thoughts and actually verbalize it to us to help us see how ridiculous our insecurities and worries may actually seem
This is the video that changed my life, i wasnt even being dramatic or exaggerating when i said this cus i meant it. Your words stabbed right into my heart (idk if that makes sense- sorry) but its like a wake up call for me, to realize that my body is enough and it doesnt need to be in a certain shape or weight. as long as it functioning and healthy to keep me alive and do my daily life its enough. no matter what other people has to say about my body, its enough. Thank you so much linda for existing and for all the things youve done for yourself, me, and everyone. 😢🥺😭💗✨️
i have always said im recovered from my eating disorder, but i dont really think i am. i dont skip meals, and i eat enough to keep me full and im at a healthy weight, but i panic when my family gets ice cream, or starbucks , because im scared ill gain weight or look bloated. i dont want to loose weight anymore which is obviously a step in the right direction, but now its a fear of gaining weight. and i haven’t stopped seeing foods as good and bad, i still have bad foods that make me anxious and feel guilty and like i have to compensate afterward. this video made me realize that my recovery isn’t over, and i have to actually start pushing myself to have a FULL and HAPPY relationship with food. thank you so much for bringing me this realization, because i feel like i can really make a difference now
i’m 15 and i’ve only just started trying to recover after 3+ years of disordered eating, restriction and calorie counting. it’s been really difficult, but i genuinely mean it when i say your channel is the reason i decided to try and heal. thank you so much for everything
This video seriously helped me so much Linda you have no idea. Although you probably will never read this comment I will say it anyway: the messages you deliver are incredible. The message at the beginning hit especially hard. I think nowadays we forget vey easy that normal people don’t post their bodies, don’t track everything they eat, don’t eat only ‘clean’ and actually listen to their bodies, eat when they are hungry, eat what they want, don’t track en don’t workout every day. I think it is so easy to get the idea that we have to be a certain way when we see other people on social media being like this, but this population is like 2% of te world population and not the average person. This video really was an eye opener for me and you help me so much in my recovery to get an idea of what ‘normal’ ACTUALLY is!
normal is uniqueness normal is different in everyone I have actually also done a vlog talking about this exact topic on monday, and I was so insecure about it, but when I saw the next day that Linda also talked about it, I felt like I did the right thing to talk about it I think u might enjoy it, pls let me known what u think ❤
yep I couldn't agree more also I was so glad she touched upon this topic, which I feel is often neglected online. that is why I also talked about the same topic on the vlog I posted on monday, and it was a nice surprise to see someone else the next day talk about it, it reassure me that I was doing the right thing sharing it
thx you for existing too, and if you ever feel lonely just know that this community is here always I hope to one day make such a wonderful community on my own TH-cam channel
To everyone reading this, YOU CAN DO THIS, i know its hard & i know some days you may want to go back but stay strong because recovery IS WORTH IT!!!!! LOVE UUUUUUU
I cried within the first 10 seconds of this video, really needed this after returning from deployment and having 5 weeks off and seeing stereotypical gym girls for the first time in 4 months. Your struggle is one we've all shared and I'm so happy to see you in a much better mindset. Love yourself as much as we love you Linda. Much love from me to you x
Best video at the best time. This time of the year is when a lot of people feel guilty for not meeting their “New Years resolution” to lose weight and feeling bad about their body. Sending big hugs from Australia, health is wealth, love your body
omg I didn't think of that, it is true that this time of year that happens and it nice that I am not the only one that has done a vlog about this, which I actually uploaded yesterday, it is actually very reassuring that someone like Linda also decided to talk about this topic
Thank you, Linda. You've got me feeling emotional now. I've been telling myself over the last little while that I will do anything to lose weight, and go to any lengths, no matter how damaging to my mental/physical health to look a certain way. I feel so unhappy, counting calories and exercising to look a certain way. I end up in a ball of tears in bed at the end of the day, just so miserable. Life isn't all about what I look like. I need to change my perspective from hatred of the way my body looks to love for all it has done and will do for me, focusing on feeling my best rather than looking a certain way. Keep doing what you're doing, I needed this reminder today.
once u start loving and trusting ur body and work with it instead of against it life begins to shine reminder that the shape or weight of your body never determine how wonderful and lovely you are your amazingness cannot be weight, it has no shape and like I say on my TH-cam vlogs, keep choosing yourself everyday, in order ot star thriving and not only just living
and you do tooo never forget that I am on a healing journey myself, and she inspired me to start my own TH-cam channel to share it, and tbh I have never been more grateful to do something like this in my life I hope to one day help inspire others to take a step towards doing what they love
i struggled with anorexia two years ago and watching your videos of you cooking healthy delicious food and loving every second is what helped me recover and never go back. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
hi, Linda !! i just wanted to tell you that you have changed and change my life every day. it may seem dramatic, but without your videos i feel a little lost in my journey of self-love. thank you for continuing to show us a part of your life
I do a lot of self-love and self-growth vlogs, because I struggled so much with that, and while I still have good and bad days, starting making vlogs and sharing them has really help me become more loving towards myself, because I've learned that the person we need to love the most is us, simple bc we have ourselves for the rest of our lives, and if we don't love ourselves then who will
Thank you for all your videos! I'm very grateful to have found you. I've suffered with ED for almost 10 years now but just recently started to recover fully and I know watching your videos played a huge part in it. I've cried so many times watching you just because of how happy I am that there is someone like you out there. Thank you, Linda!
Linda🥺 I wish you could know how many lives you've been saving. I've been in anorexia to binge eating and back to anorexia. I have lost my period for 3 year and still I wasn't committed to fuel my body properly to heal it. This vedio was much needed . Also that rewatching your old vedios gave me strength to go and buy peanut butter which is the love of my life. Thank you so much for your beautiful existence ❤
You are so beautiful my love, I know its been a while since you left this comment but I want to remind you of this video and to keep nourishing your body the way you deserve. ❤
Recently I’ve relapsed with my ED for the past few months and I have been working to get back on track because I know I need to take care of myself again and show myself some self compassion but it’s definitely been difficult, thank you for all of the love, hard work, and dedication you put into making your videos Linda, we all got this, stay strong 💪 ❤
happy SPOOOOKY DAY and you are sooo right literally uploaded a video yesterday talking about a very similar topic, and it was nice to see that I am not the only one who thinks the idea of striving to always be normal is so toxic
i just recently discovered your channel and i’m so so glad i did because your videos are like a warm hug. thank you so much for being so beautifully authentic and making hard mental health days a little sunnier with your content :,)❤️ you are such a bright light in this world!
welcome to the community and just a reminder that you are a bright light in this world too and I hope you love this community as much as I do, like without her I would have never started my own TH-cam channel to help others grow together with me 😄
Thank you so much for making yourself vulnerable (if yk what I mean) and being comfortably honest you don’t know how much you have inspired and helped me!!
Thank you so much! You said all the thing s that needed to be said! I'm so happy you learned to love yourself and thank you for sharing the love!! We need more content like this! I love your videos so much! You're so inspiring and your thoughts are very wise! xoxo
Every time I think about “Oh I wish Linda could upload a video today” I get the notification hours later. Thank so much for sharing your journey with us! Lots of love from Brazil ❤
omg could not relate more, I was literally just gonna go on TH-cam to procrastinate and then boom there it is the notification just after I upload my latest TH-cam vlog talking about the same topic 😱
You’re amazing, Linda! This is exactly the kind of content we need MORE of on social media which is otherwise filled with fabricated and unattainable bodies. Thank you for being so transparent about your experience and for uplifting others! 🥰
I really needed this video! and you dropping this now is like a sign from the universe Linda! you have no idea, how badly I felt today morning after 6 months of working out and dieting nothing just works out for now. I was soo tired and on the verge of giving up and that's when i realised I had to do this not to lose weight but to gain confidence, to love me for who i am, for who i look like. i just can't hate my body, restrict myself from eating or hate my workout routine just because I don't look like who i want to be... To anyone reading this comment you are LOVED, you are BEAUTIFUL and never ever GIVE UP, I know it's tough but hang in there you are not alone..we're in this together!
2 years ago "good" food used to be salads and no carbs... your videos really changed my relationship with food! now "good" food is food that tastes good, that makes me feel good and beautiful memories with my families and friends! you are amazing and such an inspiration! whoever reads this comment just remember we are all just humans navigating this world, making lots of mistakes, learning from them and growing 🥰 no one is perfect
Because slim/skinny was/is the target of many, not healthy. Many pick inappropriate models as their weight loss/look targets , instead of being real , accepting their body is different, that we need different food and exercises , that we have different goals. Get affected not reaching those goals..but they set them. People should seek professionals , to get informed and follow advice. Should have one goal..HEALTHY.. She says she does not have visible abs, but she is working out. When eat so much, you will not have visible abs, but a big belly. So why complain..what is she trying to say. The question is ..does she really wants it, the fit body, or just makes videos for views..for me , this video says nothing, a continue whining and showing off meals, food, tons of questions and no answers, but dilemmas for followers..and I do not think she has a good influence . Yo yo is not healhy. She does not seem to be in a good place, to know what she wants, did not evolve, does not seem to know how to exercise, as she does not even lift properly. And people look to someone like this as a model.. Consistency is the key in exercise and being healthy. She needs help , not to advise others. She should seek a nutritionist and a psichologist, as has the means. She is not a model for me , I don't think she should be for anyone. People should stop looking for videos validating their beliefs...but look for what they need and want..want to get fit and healthy, or not ? And that includes mental health too
i've been a longtime watcher but never commented before, but i really feel like i have to tell you, linda, your videos are so important. you're doing really, really important work here.
she is and nice u commented bc this are always so welcome, whenever someone comments on my TH-cam vlogs they always make my day even when I think they couldn't get better
my brainy has been so cloudy and sad and not very kind to me lately. i tried to tell myself that im doing fine. that there is nothing wrong with my body. that there is nothing wrong with eating and enjoying food. that their body is not better than mine. but its been hard! so rewatching this has been helpful ❤ sometimes i just need to hear someone else’s voice telling me that hey, you’re doing just fine.
I had just finished several hours of dealing with kids and headed to my room with a big bowl of ice cream with M&M's and chopped oreos to enjoy in front of the heater. 20 minutes to chill before starting on housework! I had been thinking about wanting to see some Linda all day and planned on rewatching your last uploads. Imagine my joy made complete when I saw there was a new one! 🤩
I feel so inspired and motivated watching your videos. I have been struggling with the way I look since forever. It seems like we are all in this together. Let's love and care for our bodies!!!
Thank you so much!!! I used to be the girl that starved, limit my eating and went to bed hungry because society made me believe that I need to be thin to be beautiful. Now, I eat what I want because I love it. I workout not because I want to be thin but because I want to be healthy and I enjoy running. And best of all, I’ve accepted that my body is unique and it’s me.
exactly girl your body is so beautiful and the shape or how much it weight never will and never has determine how amazing u are and always will be and like I like to remind other with my TH-cam vlogs, keep choosing yourself everyday, so you can thriving and not just surviving through life
you don't even know how much you helped me with this video. I'm only 13 yo struggling with an eating disorder. I'd never be able to thank you enough for all these smart words. love ya so much
i dont know girl but i ltrly cried i mean im 14 and i have always been insecure abt my thighs and i tried to not eat at all diet which made me lose weight but on the other hand i also i lost my health and my muscle my mental health all of them were just terrible so i decided to eat again but i lost control and gained like 7kg so my goal now is eat healthy and exersice to just have a fit body but after this video i now understand why my body hates me cuz im just forcing it to fit the beauty standards but i think i need to focus on being happy more...thank u linda u ltrly saved a 14 old girl didnt know what to do with her body!
Hey Linda! I just want you to know how much I love you and your channel. You don’t know how much you’ve done for me, kept me from SH, kept me from toxic diets, and kept me from toxicity in general. Please remember to love yourself sometimes and take breaks. I will stay here and wait for you if you decide to take a break. You deserve it. You can’t let anyone else dictate who you are. I love you, -Miss never good enough
Dear miss never food enough I would like to ask for you to change your name, because let me remind you that you are enough and you have always been enough simply bc you are here, and you don't need to prove it to anyone or even to yourself. Remember to also love yourself because you deserve all the love, don't let others say otherwise and if you ever need some friendly reminders I do some yt vlogs about self-compassion and self-love that I think you might enjoy, I have been there, but doing this videos have really helped me have more love for myself, and I hope they can help you too sending you lots of love - from someone who knows you are enough ❤
I've seen this video three times already. You bring me so much comfort and you always come at times I need it the most. The truth is I've been struggling lately with my eating and I didn't even realize that I'm back in my disordered patterns. What I want to say is thank you. For everything. You are an amazing human being, you inspire and challenge me. I'm really grateful for you. And I want you to know that the people who care about you and cherish you will always be there for you in times of need. Take care of yourself and eat something yummy (as you always say to us)
The way I started to cry immediately when I started to watch this video, I suffered with eating disorder and I try to recover now. I’m currently underweight so I have to gain some weight but it’s so freaking hard for me because even if I’m underweight weight, I’m still not happy how my body look. Thank you Linda for amazing content and for being there for me when I was on my lowest 💗
@@eat_buttons fvcker being underweight is not a good thing just like the case with being overweight you have to be in the middle zone, the right zone for your height, age and other requirements that you may have, that's the healthy and safe area Extremes sides of the spectrum are dangerous
@@eat_buttons you seem to have an eating disorder, being underweight is not safe, stop romanticizing it Go to therapy first If you want to lose weight and be FIT (neither underweight nor overweight), do it safely, get a personal trainer and contact a dietitian (not a nutritionist, dietitians are actual medical professionals with credentials, whereas anyone can call themself a nutritionist) don't put your life at risk Increase protein (meat, lentils etc.) and fibre (vegetables) and cut down on carbs and sugars (especially processed foods) Start exercising regularly, cardio + strength join a gym or just go for 5 to 10km walks everyday if you aren't that ready for gym yet
Ahhhh thank you Linda!!! Thank you for sharing your grounding words as the winter season approaches 🥹 I experience debilitating anxiety from past trauma with winter depression, and watching your videos really help me feel at peace!
lindaaaa😭dont make me cry...i needed this video so so much right now. It came just at the right time, to give me comfort and calm. You are truly one of the most inspireing, honest people out there online and i adore you so so much. Thank you for helping and saving us, with every new video🥺🥺❤️❤️🩹
Adore her too she always seems to be a lifesaver, and I just find it so calming to know that I am not the only one talking about this topic, as I just uploaded a vlog yesterday exactly talking about this, so I am glad to know she finds this important to talk to
Thank you for making this video. It made me cry. Your words are so warm and they touch my heart. Thank you so much. I needed to hear these things because life's been really tough. I always await your uploads. You are a blessing !!
I hope whatever you are going through eases soon sending you lots of love and know that no matter how hard things seem to be in the moment, they always get better as I like to remind people with my own yt vlogs, the only thing in life that is constant is change, (and this can be good or bad, but all these moments are here to teach us something important about ourselves) 😄
literally she is always like a friend behind you ready to help you get back up even before you fall, I hope that one that my vlogs can reach as many as hers
I thank you, so many women need to hear this. I'm very tired of these red pilled people selling an idea and everyone is running with it. Sometimes a person is much healthier without being completely or even remotely fit. Young ladies need to quit social media and their girlfriends, I see girls disrespecting other girls in this way. I've never cared how someone looks but their actions and reactions are another matter. As a man I've never cared how I myself look, even with the hurtful things people have called me and told me to do to myself. The way I look at it is there's much better things to be worried about than my body.
I don't usually comment on TH-cam (don't really know why ahaha) but you're such an inspiring person I had to ! I've had a pretty bad day and I just spent an hour body checking and hating everything about myself. I just opened youtube to try and calm down so I could go to sleep. Thank god I did because your video made me cry (a lot) in a good way. You always makes me feel like I'm worth it and I deserve to be happy. I can never thank you enough and as you can see from other comments, I'm not the only one thinking that. I've also been going through a midlife crisis (or more accurately a quarter life crisis as I'm only 25 ahaha). I don't know what I want to do with my life and I've been thinking a lot about dropping everything (including my studies), move out of Canada and just...I don't know, I haven't planned that far ahead yet ! But seeing that you're going through similar stuff makes me feel less alone. I'm honestly so tired of being a women in this economy ! The amount of standards we have to fit into are fuck**ng insane and I think it's about time we realize it (sorry for my little outburst, I really needed it ahaha) ! Long story short, thank you for being you ! You help so many people love themselves and I trully hope you realize what an amazing, intelligent, emphatic, funny and kind women you are. If I could return the favor I would. I wish you the best and If you ever come back to Quebec, feel free to reach out !
im so glad u stumble upon this video instead of another while u were having a bad day and know that ur worth it never determine by what u did or didn't do or how u look or don't u are enough just as u are everyday and every second reminder that you are not alone, and never will be as a women myself I totally agree to the amount of bs standards that society places on us and that's why I decided to burst out of my comfort bubble and thx to the inspiration from Linda start my own TH-cam channel to share my own healing journey with others while support others at the same time and I hope to some day give the comfort I find in Linda to others like you
What you said at the beginning really spoke to me. A few months ago I had a really bad ED. I dropped 20% of my body weight and it was scary. But just two months ago I came across your Chanel, not knowing anything and before I knew it, your videos became something I watched everyday. You are a true inspiration and friend. Without your videos I may have never recovered. Thank you
This is the first video I ever watched by you...and it was during my first few days out of the hospital after I was admitted for an eating disorder. I was there for a week, and I was lucky we caught it early. However, I was pretty sick. Your videos completely changed my mindset and helped me view my body and food better. I love my body and admire it now, and I view food as fuel now, not poison. I truly believe I would not be doing as well as I am right now if not for you. You truly have all of my gratitude, thank you thank you thank you, Linda, for quite literally saving me. 🩷
Your videos make my day Linda. Im a teen girl and the things you say in this video are really relatable. Thanks for spreading so much positivity. you make me feel so much better about my self.
linda, i’ve always really looked up to you and admired you as a person, and this video really means a lot to me 🤍 i had a moment when i went “she looks like me” and i instantly started sobbing because i’ve always felt so insecure about my body (especially when surrounded by peers who are dancers when i’m not a dancer myself, and many of whom fit the thin asian beauty standard). but you are so so beautiful and it just made me wonder why i look at myself so critically all the time and beat myself up for every little thing. self-acceptance and self-love is a journey and it’s one that i’ll always continue to work on getting better at 🤍 love you so much linda, thank you for this and for everything ♥️
self-acceptance and love is defo a journey, but like I always like to remind ppl who watch my vlogs on TH-cam, BABY STEPS, I myself use to have super low self-esteem and use to be so critical of myself as a whole, but doing TH-cam has definitely help me lots and I hope to help others find their way to more self-compassion and self-love
I was literally waiting for ur videos for weeks bcz i just needed them so much bcz linda sun you are literally the best you don't know wht impact u have on me....ur words ur expressions means so much...and u gave the much needed motivation to love myself, my body and me.....i just love you and i hope you get all thw happiness in the world bcz u deserve all of it♡
i hope one day u will have your own podcast cause i love your voice , it really calms me down and u inspire me so much , i stopped hating my body when i started whatching your videos . LOVE U !!!!!
thank you linda 🥹 you’re videos are so inspirational. if you were to ever start a podcast, i’d be a frequent listener and i feel like i can learn so much from you. 💕
I can congratulate you enough for havind the COURAGE to show us the truth... you are the one who is true.... congratz, congratz, congratz, congratz.... love you for showing us this... because its hard... for me, and i dont have body issues, but you are even better. Thank you for your courage
agree actually on monday I uploaded a vlog talking exactly about the same topic, and I was really afraid that it was a topic that was too controversial, but when I saw that Linda talked about it too a day after, I felt that I did the right thing
literally that and the fact that she is the inspiration to my TH-cam channel, like she is the one that made me finally feel a bit of confidence to start sharing my self-growth journey and help others do the same, and now I can not see a day where I don't love creating content I hope one that I can do what she does to ppl like you to so many others 😄
Thankyou linda for reminding me to love myself a little more each day and appreciate the life and body I have and not to spend time just thinking about numbers rather enjoying every moment and just create some good memories 🥹💜.....Love you linda
memories in the end is all that we have left when we are no longer here and like I say often on my TH-cam channel vlogs, the only thing in life that is constant is change, therefore the more we internalise this the more we can start enjoying life instead of barely surviving it
@@oxanadc this is something that literally trying to recover is teaching me like and I'm glad that at least we all started somewhere even if that step is small💜🔥.....I'm so proud of everyone out their trying to recover
I love how you connect with your mom over yoru meal together. Beautiful. I'm struggling with these same things and while I can grant other bodies permission to be larger, it's somehow still just so hard to do the same for myself.
Linda I just wanted to say thank you , truly thank you for everything . I have hated my body and the way I look for my whole life , I’ve had an unexplainable hatred for everything about myself for as long as I can remember and your videos are actually the only thing that give me hope . Whenever I watch your videos they make me feel ok and content with myself and body. You give me hope that I will finally get better and I will be able to eat and enjoy food without guilt or counting . Thank you for everything and for making me feel ok and understood
I saw this video a week ago and decided to try to start ED recovery. Now a week later, it has been tough but I’m trying. I suppose I just needed a little “push” in the right direction and this video really gave me it. Your videos are so great, your words so wise and so comforting. They really make you think. When I struggle with meals, feel myself filled with regret, guilt, anxiety and an urge to stop fighting i just go to your channel and pick any video and just listen to your words to help me get my mind on the right track. Thank you, Linda, because even if you didn’t know it yet you really helped this 15 year old behind this comment and I’m sure you helped so many more❤❤❤
thank you linda, you’re such a kind hearted person. you make me aspire to become better, mentally and physically, and bring so much comfort whenever i’m feeling down. hope you can always be happy for the rest of your life, you are so loved !!!
Yours is one of the channels I go to when I need something to watch while eating. So when you said thank you for eating with me, somehow I felt seen, and it made me so happy.
I just love how they explain everything to us so we can understand them , and they make it fun so we don't get bored or distracted ( which happens to me very often) plus they are having fun to which is amazing. So thank you! You're amazing guys!
like I say on my own TH-cam vlogs BABY STEPS, take it day by day, you will get there it might seem like you are not who you were, but slowly you can discover that and the thing is that's the beauty of life, that u get 24 hours to discover who you are and that's what I love sharing on my own TH-cam channel, that the beauty of life is change
Linda, seeing your video updates excite me. You’re inspirational! I hope you know your value on TH-cam! Stay happy, stay positive and let’s grow together!
This is comforting for a struggling 13 yo right now. I love watching ur videos when my ed gets in the way, so i can feel better about eating. Thank you❤️🫶
just a reminder that if u continue to choose yourself everyday you will get there, sending you lots of strength and love u can do this, and like I say on my own TH-cam channel BABY STEPS, take it slowly as it comes, and you can get there
Lindaaa i lovee you ,you make me laugh when I don’t want to ,I consider you my best friend now i watch you everywhere whenever i feel bad you realy changed my mindset alot thank you for everything you are an awesome person you make alot of people love their life ❤️
this is such a wholesome message/ and I am glad to hear you found a safe place in this mess of a world, and reminder that you too are awesome, and your uniqueness is what makes you wonderful,
Linda, i got back to your videos just in oerfect timing. I m recovering from anorexia, (weight´s already restored) but i am in the over eating phase, sometimes more, sometimes less, and so my body´s changed a lot. and im am judging myself so hard. THANK YOU for this, i know this is not recent, but im going to binge watch ur videos. I LOVE YOU
as someone who does yt vlogs too I always appreciate the editing bc I know how much time it takes, especially with university studies on the side, as I am a student myself too
reminder that it's okay to give yourself some time and not be productive the whole day and that taking some time to yourself is always needed and she is truly motivational Without her I would not have started my own yotube channel trying got motivate others to see how wonderful they already are
Your body works with all the systems to keep you alive and healthy, and it carries you on those legs and helps you with your arms and your senses are thanks to your face! Your body is worth it not because of how it looks but because of how good and reliable it is!
Linda, you have no idea how much you are helping people around the world with your videos. I'm 14 years old and i have been struggling with an eating disorder since I was 11, now that im in recovery i watch your videos every single day because you help me so much to stay motivated and to remind me to never go back. Words cant explain how much i appreciate your content. Ilysm ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
your personality, voice and every thing are js so nice like you’re gorg inside and you!! Keep being you and being as positive and uplifting to yourself and everyone! Take breaks when you need. I’ve watched your videos for awhile now and I love that you do lots of voiceovers and your meals always look so yummy!! Btw Milo is so cute likeee
literally such a wholesome message that reminds me as well why I do what I do I love sharing small reminders on my TH-cam channel while sharing my chaos of a life, just so other can see and slowly discover themselves as I do the same alongside them
I just found this channel a couple days ago, and it's already helped so much! I feel normal for being hungry and eating! You make me so motivated to go and make food and eat something I really want to eat. Thank you so much for spreading this information! I know it helps so many people!
that is what I love about her videos that u can come back to them whenever u need this specific reminder another reason why I started my own TH-cam channel, where I give small reminders to ppl, because I think those are always helpful and that is all I want to do help others through their self-growth journey
wow your point about physical, mental, emotional hunger is so so true. I never thought about breaking up hunger like that. And thank you for reframing stillness as healing, not laziness. I’ve found myself being still a lot lately, and judging myself for it but perhaps my body was just recharging.
Just watching this video once has helped me so much. I’ve dealt with body image issues, a bad relationship with food, and body dysmorphia since elementary school, and I’ve never really thought of my body like what you said. I’m literally crying this video is so so so amazing and I will definitely come back to it when I’m feeling bad about my body
I really missed you and your videos so I am glad you posted today. You are the only one I watch in this type of content because who you are and you helped me a lot. Thank you for doing youtube and making videos for us❤❤
yep I could never express with words how thankful I am to have her in my life, without her I would have never had the courage to start my own TH-cam channel and help others through their own healing journey
thank you Linda this video was incredible 💕 today I came home from a stressful school day and went completely overboard on the Halloween candy. I am so glad I watched this. I feel much calmer and less hopeless. I am going to reflect on what happened from a place of self love instead of trying to undo my actions. You inspire me to walk away from my negative habits and strive for an authentic healthy life, not just one that looks healthy on the outside.
also reminder that this day is a once in a year opportunity to make these memories and If you struggle with self-love I have some yt videos that I've done about self-love as I am in that journey myself
you have no idea how much i needed this video. something bad and scary happened over the weekend and i've really been heading towards relapsing because of it. staying strong was becoming impossible, but this video came as the perfect reminder to never go back down that path of misery. what you do is incredible, linda, and we as your supporters can never thank you enough ❤️
I really hope you are feeling okay. Relapsing will not give you true control you will only be losing control you are beautiful just the way you are and you do not need to change
I have also been struggling again with my eating but i just remind myself that restricting my eating does not give me true control x
I am sending you lots of love, and I hope everything is better now ❤
and here is a reminder to choose yourself everyday and never go back to a place where you are only living and not thriving
and reminder too to have a little self-compassion to yourself on those hard days, and if you need another reminder I have a couple of TH-cam vlogs that I think u would find helpful
Hope you’re feeling better, remember you are important and beautiful, loving yourself is difficult but you can do it ❤
@@cazdunlop387 precisely it is a hard journey but we are in this together 🥰🥰
sending you strength and love
I’m 56…when I was a teenager, a friend’s mom referred to my thighs as elephant trunks…fast forward to now and I thank God that I was blessed with strong, athletic legs that enabled me to play sports all my life, run for 25 years and continue to hike mountains across the world. My piece of advice…don’t let anyone define who you are or control your mind.
Girl I can’t thank you enough for making this, I’m a 14 yr old girl and you are such a massive help of knocking me out of a toxic cycle
m glad you watched this video
remember ur the most beautiful when ur happy and healthy !!🤗
This video is such a god send - just amazing and what I needed to hear today. - hope y’all are doing better ❤️
Same! I hope you're doing well
Hi Linda! I'm usually not a commenter but I really wanted to thank you for your content. I've just committed to full recovery from my own food issues and one of my biggest inspirations to get better was you. Sharing all the love from a fellow peanut butter enthusiast
thank you for this comment. It made me smile so big. from one peanut butter lover to another, I'm SO SO proud of you
she is such a source of inspiration and I am sending you all the love for you to continue choosing yourself everyday bc you deserve to have a free and thriving life
@@lindasunytThank you so much for helping me love my body and feel more confident and happy! I loveeeee your amazing videos! You bring a smile to my face every single time. 🫶🫶also I love peanut butter :)
I needed this video. As a Muslim, when someone does something good for me, I pray for them sincerely. Here is my prayer for you. May God bless you. May you find joy and fulfillment. May good friends surround you and love you every day. May all your worries and insecurities fade away like dust blowing off with the wind. May you continue to find the strength it takes to make such content with such beautiful messaging. I NEEDED this Linda. Thank you. Thank you Thank you for making this video. Thank you for existing. I have been living through a VERY hard time in my life over the past few month. It's been challenging every which way. And to make it worse, parts of my body are injured. And parts are sick. And I keep trying my best everyday to keep going. But it has been HARD. Mentally. PHYSICALLY. It is a difficult time. Some of the things you said in this video resonated so much with me. By the end of the video, I'm bawling. Thank you for making this video, and all your other work. Thank you for being vulnerable. Your work and presence on this Earth is loved and needed by SO many right now. May you always be at peace. Ameen
Yess loved to see this. Ameen.And for you a Dua may Allah help you with whatever your struggling with, and grant you ease after hardship, may he reunite you and your family in jannah and may he help our brothers and sisters in Palestine granting them victory. Ameen
Jesus is coming soon. Please repent
Linda I find it amazing how you are able to take all our thoughts and actually verbalize it to us to help us see how ridiculous our insecurities and worries may actually seem
I love how you and your mom make the same facial expressions when eating yummy food. It's sooo cute!
hehehe our love for food is genetic
it is never actually noticed
I’ve been suffering from an eating disorder for months now and this video girl… it’s a pearl ❤ thank you for what you do, your kindness and your love.
This is the video that changed my life, i wasnt even being dramatic or exaggerating when i said this cus i meant it. Your words stabbed right into my heart (idk if that makes sense- sorry) but its like a wake up call for me, to realize that my body is enough and it doesnt need to be in a certain shape or weight. as long as it functioning and healthy to keep me alive and do my daily life its enough. no matter what other people has to say about my body, its enough. Thank you so much linda for existing and for all the things youve done for yourself, me, and everyone. 😢🥺😭💗✨️
i have always said im recovered from my eating disorder, but i dont really think i am.
i dont skip meals, and i eat enough to keep me full and im at a healthy weight, but i panic when my family gets ice cream, or starbucks , because im scared ill gain weight or look bloated. i dont want to loose weight anymore which is obviously a step in the right direction, but now its a fear of gaining weight. and i haven’t stopped seeing foods as good and bad, i still have bad foods that make me anxious and feel guilty and like i have to compensate afterward. this video made me realize that my recovery isn’t over, and i have to actually start pushing myself to have a FULL and HAPPY relationship with food. thank you so much for bringing me this realization, because i feel like i can really make a difference now
hi! I know this was months ago but I’m going thru smth similar and I was just wondering how’s it going? 🫶🫶
i’m 15 and i’ve only just started trying to recover after 3+ years of disordered eating, restriction and calorie counting. it’s been really difficult, but i genuinely mean it when i say your channel is the reason i decided to try and heal. thank you so much for everything
you got this !!
This video seriously helped me so much Linda you have no idea. Although you probably will never read this comment I will say it anyway: the messages you deliver are incredible. The message at the beginning hit especially hard. I think nowadays we forget vey easy that normal people don’t post their bodies, don’t track everything they eat, don’t eat only ‘clean’ and actually listen to their bodies, eat when they are hungry, eat what they want, don’t track en don’t workout every day. I think it is so easy to get the idea that we have to be a certain way when we see other people on social media being like this, but this population is like 2% of te world population and not the average person. This video really was an eye opener for me and you help me so much in my recovery to get an idea of what ‘normal’ ACTUALLY is!
normal is uniqueness normal is different in everyone
I have actually also done a vlog talking about this exact topic on monday, and I was so insecure about it, but when I saw the next day that Linda also talked about it, I felt like I did the right thing to talk about it
I think u might enjoy it, pls let me known what u think ❤
if only there are more of Linda out in the world to spread the correct message
yep I couldn't agree more
also I was so glad she touched upon this topic, which I feel is often neglected online.
that is why I also talked about the same topic on the vlog I posted on monday, and it was a nice surprise to see someone else the next day talk about it, it reassure me that I was doing the right thing sharing it
There are! There are all of us!
that is such a wonderful thought and so true@@snacktivist
yeah ❤
Love you Linda! You are an angel! Thank you so much for existing and helping us all feel heard and less lonely, going through life together 🤍✨
THANK YOU FOR EXISTING
thx you for existing too, and if you ever feel lonely just know that this community is here always
I hope to one day make such a wonderful community on my own TH-cam channel
@@oxanadc❤
@@lindasunyt❤️🩹
@@alexaung5462 you go take care of yourself cause ur an Angel 👼 too
To everyone reading this, YOU CAN DO THIS, i know its hard & i know some days you may want to go back but stay strong because recovery IS WORTH IT!!!!! LOVE UUUUUUU
I cried within the first 10 seconds of this video, really needed this after returning from deployment and having 5 weeks off and seeing stereotypical gym girls for the first time in 4 months. Your struggle is one we've all shared and I'm so happy to see you in a much better mindset. Love yourself as much as we love you Linda. Much love from me to you x
Best video at the best time. This time of the year is when a lot of people feel guilty for not meeting their “New Years resolution” to lose weight and feeling bad about their body.
Sending big hugs from Australia, health is wealth, love your body
omg I didn't think of that, it is true that this time of year that happens
and it nice that I am not the only one that has done a vlog about this, which I actually uploaded yesterday, it is actually very reassuring that someone like Linda also decided to talk about this topic
Thank you, Linda. You've got me feeling emotional now. I've been telling myself over the last little while that I will do anything to lose weight, and go to any lengths, no matter how damaging to my mental/physical health to look a certain way. I feel so unhappy, counting calories and exercising to look a certain way. I end up in a ball of tears in bed at the end of the day, just so miserable. Life isn't all about what I look like. I need to change my perspective from hatred of the way my body looks to love for all it has done and will do for me, focusing on feeling my best rather than looking a certain way. Keep doing what you're doing, I needed this reminder today.
once u start loving and trusting ur body and work with it instead of against it life begins to shine
reminder that the shape or weight of your body never determine how wonderful and lovely you are
your amazingness cannot be weight, it has no shape
and like I say on my TH-cam vlogs, keep choosing yourself everyday, in order ot star thriving and not only just living
You have no idea how much you have helped me in my healing journey. You deserve all of the peanut butter in the world
and you do tooo never forget that
I am on a healing journey myself, and she inspired me to start my own TH-cam channel to share it, and tbh I have never been more grateful to do something like this in my life
I hope to one day help inspire others to take a step towards doing what they love
i struggled with anorexia two years ago and watching your videos of you cooking healthy delicious food and loving every second is what helped me recover and never go back. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
hi, Linda !!
i just wanted to tell you that you have changed and change my life every day. it may seem dramatic, but without your videos i feel a little lost in my journey of self-love. thank you for continuing to show us a part of your life
I do a lot of self-love and self-growth vlogs, because I struggled so much with that, and while I still have good and bad days, starting making vlogs and sharing them has really help me become more loving towards myself, because I've learned that the person we need to love the most is us, simple bc we have ourselves for the rest of our lives, and if we don't love ourselves then who will
Thank you for all your videos! I'm very grateful to have found you. I've suffered with ED for almost 10 years now but just recently started to recover fully and I know watching your videos played a huge part in it. I've cried so many times watching you just because of how happy I am that there is someone like you out there. Thank you, Linda!
Linda🥺 I wish you could know how many lives you've been saving. I've been in anorexia to binge eating and back to anorexia. I have lost my period for 3 year and still I wasn't committed to fuel my body properly to heal it. This vedio was much needed . Also that rewatching your old vedios gave me strength to go and buy peanut butter which is the love of my life. Thank you so much for your beautiful existence ❤
You are so beautiful my love, I know its been a while since you left this comment but I want to remind you of this video and to keep nourishing your body the way you deserve. ❤
Recently I’ve relapsed with my ED for the past few months and I have been working to get back on track because I know I need to take care of myself again and show myself some self compassion but it’s definitely been difficult, thank you for all of the love, hard work, and dedication you put into making your videos Linda, we all got this, stay strong 💪 ❤
Omgosh Linda's videos always come at the perfect time ❤️❤️ and happy halloween everyone!
HAPPY HALLOWEEEEEN hehe
happy SPOOOOKY DAY
and you are sooo right literally uploaded a video yesterday talking about a very similar topic, and it was nice to see that I am not the only one who thinks the idea of striving to always be normal is so toxic
i just recently discovered your channel and i’m so so glad i did because your videos are like a warm hug. thank you so much for being so beautifully authentic and making hard mental health days a little sunnier with your content :,)❤️ you are such a bright light in this world!
welcome to the community
and just a reminder that you are a bright light in this world too
and I hope you love this community as much as I do, like without her I would have never started my own TH-cam channel to help others grow together with me 😄
Without Linda i wouldn’t be where i am right now…in my safe place❤ Love you and your fam Linda
WE LOVE YOU THANK YOU FOR YOUR KINDNESS
sending u lots of love an a reminder that you are here because you belong here
Thank you so much for making yourself vulnerable (if yk what I mean) and being comfortably honest you don’t know how much you have inspired and helped me!!
Thank you so much! You said all the thing s that needed to be said! I'm so happy you learned to love yourself and thank you for sharing the love!! We need more content like this! I love your videos so much! You're
so inspiring and your thoughts are very wise! xoxo
yeah!! 💖
first of all you are such a pretty girl, secondly your soul is so so beautiful, you shine in such a confident way and i strive to have that
this comment means so much to me. I love it when people compliment my soul
Every time I think about “Oh I wish Linda could upload a video today” I get the notification hours later. Thank so much for sharing your journey with us! Lots of love from Brazil ❤
Sameeeeee
omg could not relate more, I was literally just gonna go on TH-cam to procrastinate and then boom there it is the notification
just after I upload my latest TH-cam vlog talking about the same topic 😱
You’re amazing, Linda! This is exactly the kind of content we need MORE of on social media which is otherwise filled with fabricated and unattainable bodies. Thank you for being so transparent about your experience and for uplifting others! 🥰
I really needed this video! and you dropping this now is like a sign from the universe Linda! you have no idea, how badly I felt today morning after 6 months of working out and dieting nothing just works out for now. I was soo tired and on the verge of giving up and that's when i realised I had to do this not to lose weight but to gain confidence, to love me for who i am, for who i look like. i just can't hate my body, restrict myself from eating or hate my workout routine just because I don't look like who i want to be...
To anyone reading this comment you are LOVED, you are BEAUTIFUL and never ever GIVE UP,
I know it's tough but hang in there you are not alone..we're in this together!
What happened to you are you not loosing weight
2 years ago "good" food used to be salads and no carbs... your videos really changed my relationship with food! now "good" food is food that tastes good, that makes me feel good and beautiful memories with my families and friends! you are amazing and such an inspiration! whoever reads this comment just remember we are all just humans navigating this world, making lots of mistakes, learning from them and growing 🥰 no one is perfect
Because slim/skinny was/is the target of many, not healthy. Many pick inappropriate models as their weight loss/look targets , instead of being real , accepting their body is different, that we need different food and exercises , that we have different goals. Get affected not reaching those goals..but they set them. People should seek professionals , to get informed and follow advice. Should have one goal..HEALTHY..
She says she does not have visible abs, but she is working out. When eat so much, you will not have visible abs, but a big belly. So why complain..what is she trying to say. The question is ..does she really wants it, the fit body, or just makes videos for views..for me , this video says nothing, a continue whining and showing off meals, food, tons of questions and no answers, but dilemmas for followers..and I do not think she has a good influence . Yo yo is not healhy. She does not seem to be in a good place, to know what she wants, did not evolve, does not seem to know how to exercise, as she does not even lift properly. And people look to someone like this as a model..
Consistency is the key in exercise and being healthy.
She needs help , not to advise others. She should seek a nutritionist and a psichologist, as has the means. She is not a model for me , I don't think she should be for anyone.
People should stop looking for videos validating their beliefs...but look for what they need and want..want to get fit and healthy, or not ? And that includes mental health too
i've been a longtime watcher but never commented before, but i really feel like i have to tell you, linda, your videos are so important. you're doing really, really important work here.
she is and nice u commented bc this are always so welcome, whenever someone comments on my TH-cam vlogs they always make my day even when I think they couldn't get better
my brainy has been so cloudy and sad and not very kind to me lately. i tried to tell myself that im doing fine. that there is nothing wrong with my body. that there is nothing wrong with eating and enjoying food. that their body is not better than mine. but its been hard! so rewatching this has been helpful ❤ sometimes i just need to hear someone else’s voice telling me that hey, you’re doing just fine.
I had just finished several hours of dealing with kids and headed to my room with a big bowl of ice cream with M&M's and chopped oreos to enjoy in front of the heater. 20 minutes to chill before starting on housework! I had been thinking about wanting to see some Linda all day and planned on rewatching your last uploads. Imagine my joy made complete when I saw there was a new one! 🤩
lol this is such a mood, hope the bowl of ice cream was nourishing ❣after such an exhausting day
sending u lots of love
Aww, thank you! It was amazing. 🤩
@@laurae1031 glad to hear wishing u a lovely day
I feel so inspired and motivated watching your videos. I have been struggling with the way I look since forever. It seems like we are all in this together. Let's love and care for our bodies!!!
Thank you so much!!! I used to be the girl that starved, limit my eating and went to bed hungry because society made me believe that I need to be thin to be beautiful. Now, I eat what I want because I love it. I workout not because I want to be thin but because I want to be healthy and I enjoy running. And best of all, I’ve accepted that my body is unique and it’s me.
exactly girl your body is so beautiful and the shape or how much it weight never will and never has determine how amazing u are and always will be
and like I like to remind other with my TH-cam vlogs, keep choosing yourself everyday, so you can thriving and not just surviving through life
I love running.
Linda, this video felt like a warm hug ❤ thank you for being a voice of reason and love. We appreciate you so much 💖
you don't even know how much you helped me with this video. I'm only 13 yo struggling with an eating disorder. I'd never be able to thank you enough for all these smart words. love ya so much
i dont know girl but i ltrly cried i mean im 14 and i have always been insecure abt my thighs and i tried to not eat at all diet which made me lose weight but on the other hand i also i lost my health and my muscle my mental health all of them were just terrible so i decided to eat again but i lost control and gained like 7kg so my goal now is eat healthy and exersice to just have a fit body but after this video i now understand why my body hates me cuz im just forcing it to fit the beauty standards but i think i need to focus on being happy more...thank u linda u ltrly saved a 14 old girl didnt know what to do with her body!
Hey Linda!
I just want you to know how much I love you and your channel. You don’t know how much you’ve done for me, kept me from SH, kept me from toxic diets, and kept me from toxicity in general. Please remember to love yourself sometimes and take breaks. I will stay here and wait for you if you decide to take a break. You deserve it. You can’t let anyone else dictate who you are.
I love you,
-Miss never good enough
Dear miss never food enough
I would like to ask for you to change your name, because let me remind you that you are enough and you have always been enough simply bc you are here, and you don't need to prove it to anyone or even to yourself.
Remember to also love yourself because you deserve all the love, don't let others say otherwise
and if you ever need some friendly reminders I do some yt vlogs about self-compassion and self-love that I think you might enjoy, I have been there, but doing this videos have really helped me have more love for myself, and I hope they can help you too
sending you lots of love
- from someone who knows you are enough ❤
I've seen this video three times already. You bring me so much comfort and you always come at times I need it the most. The truth is I've been struggling lately with my eating and I didn't even realize that I'm back in my disordered patterns. What I want to say is thank you. For everything. You are an amazing human being, you inspire and challenge me. I'm really grateful for you. And I want you to know that the people who care about you and cherish you will always be there for you in times of need. Take care of yourself and eat something yummy (as you always say to us)
youre an angel 🩷 never stop making videos you are so beautiful and so kind
The way I started to cry immediately when I started to watch this video, I suffered with eating disorder and I try to recover now. I’m currently underweight so I have to gain some weight but it’s so freaking hard for me because even if I’m underweight weight, I’m still not happy how my body look. Thank you Linda for amazing content and for being there for me when I was on my lowest 💗
@@eat_buttons um I'm underweight and if I don't gain weight I will literally die.
@@eat_buttons fvcker being underweight is not a good thing just like the case with being overweight
you have to be in the middle zone, the right zone for your height, age and other requirements that you may have, that's the healthy and safe area
Extremes sides of the spectrum are dangerous
You go, mate! Take care! You got this!💛
@@eat_buttons No. I ended up in hospital for 1 month bc of it.
@@eat_buttons you seem to have an eating disorder, being underweight is not safe, stop romanticizing it
Go to therapy first
If you want to lose weight and be FIT (neither underweight nor overweight), do it safely, get a personal trainer and contact a dietitian (not a nutritionist, dietitians are actual medical professionals with credentials, whereas anyone can call themself a nutritionist)
don't put your life at risk
Increase protein (meat, lentils etc.) and fibre (vegetables) and cut down on carbs and sugars (especially processed foods)
Start exercising regularly, cardio + strength
join a gym or just go for 5 to 10km walks everyday if you aren't that ready for gym yet
Ahhhh thank you Linda!!! Thank you for sharing your grounding words as the winter season approaches 🥹 I experience debilitating anxiety from past trauma with winter depression, and watching your videos really help me feel at peace!
so grateful for you and your kind words they mean more than you know 🥹 sending you all my love
so glad to hear that you have a place where you feel at ease
know that you are loved and appreciated and that it's okay to not be happy all the time
lindaaaa😭dont make me cry...i needed this video so so much right now. It came just at the right time, to give me comfort and calm. You are truly one of the most inspireing, honest people out there online and i adore you so so much. Thank you for helping and saving us, with every new video🥺🥺❤️❤️🩹
Adore her too
she always seems to be a lifesaver, and I just find it so calming to know that I am not the only one talking about this topic, as I just uploaded a vlog yesterday exactly talking about this, so I am glad to know she finds this important to talk to
yeah
Thank you for making this video. It made me cry. Your words are so warm and they touch my heart. Thank you so much. I needed to hear these things because life's been really tough. I always await your uploads. You are a blessing !!
I hope whatever you are going through eases soon
sending you lots of love
and know that no matter how hard things seem to be in the moment, they always get better
as I like to remind people with my own yt vlogs, the only thing in life that is constant is change, (and this can be good or bad, but all these moments are here to teach us something important about ourselves) 😄
@@oxanadc Thank you 💕⭐
@@rhii342 no need to thx me I love supporting other whole reason why I continue to do yt vlogs
i don't think there's enough words to thank you for your kindness and everything you do, you inspire me so so much
Every single time you post my day is 10x better thank you Linda for not only making our days with such an amazing video but also being there for us ❤️
literally she is always like a friend behind you ready to help you get back up even before you fall, I hope that one that my vlogs can reach as many as hers
I thank you, so many women need to hear this. I'm very tired of these red pilled people selling an idea and everyone is running with it. Sometimes a person is much healthier without being completely or even remotely fit. Young ladies need to quit social media and their girlfriends, I see girls disrespecting other girls in this way. I've never cared how someone looks but their actions and reactions are another matter. As a man I've never cared how I myself look, even with the hurtful things people have called me and told me to do to myself. The way I look at it is there's much better things to be worried about than my body.
I don't usually comment on TH-cam (don't really know why ahaha) but you're such an inspiring person I had to ! I've had a pretty bad day and I just spent an hour body checking and hating everything about myself. I just opened youtube to try and calm down so I could go to sleep. Thank god I did because your video made me cry (a lot) in a good way. You always makes me feel like I'm worth it and I deserve to be happy. I can never thank you enough and as you can see from other comments, I'm not the only one thinking that.
I've also been going through a midlife crisis (or more accurately a quarter life crisis as I'm only 25 ahaha). I don't know what I want to do with my life and I've been thinking a lot about dropping everything (including my studies), move out of Canada and just...I don't know, I haven't planned that far ahead yet ! But seeing that you're going through similar stuff makes me feel less alone. I'm honestly so tired of being a women in this economy ! The amount of standards we have to fit into are fuck**ng insane and I think it's about time we realize it (sorry for my little outburst, I really needed it ahaha) !
Long story short, thank you for being you ! You help so many people love themselves and I trully hope you realize what an amazing, intelligent, emphatic, funny and kind women you are. If I could return the favor I would. I wish you the best and If you ever come back to Quebec, feel free to reach out !
im so glad u stumble upon this video instead of another while u were having a bad day
and know that ur worth it never determine by what u did or didn't do or how u look or don't u are enough just as u are everyday and every second
reminder that you are not alone, and never will be
as a women myself I totally agree to the amount of bs standards that society places on us
and that's why I decided to burst out of my comfort bubble and thx to the inspiration from Linda start my own TH-cam channel to share my own healing journey with others while support others at the same time and I hope to some day give the comfort I find in Linda to others like you
In the best way possible your videos make me cry 🥹 ❤
What you said at the beginning really spoke to me. A few months ago I had a really bad ED. I dropped 20% of my body weight and it was scary. But just two months ago I came across your Chanel, not knowing anything and before I knew it, your videos became something I watched everyday. You are a true inspiration and friend. Without your videos I may have never recovered. Thank you
This is the first video I ever watched by you...and it was during my first few days out of the hospital after I was admitted for an eating disorder. I was there for a week, and I was lucky we caught it early. However, I was pretty sick. Your videos completely changed my mindset and helped me view my body and food better. I love my body and admire it now, and I view food as fuel now, not poison. I truly believe I would not be doing as well as I am right now if not for you. You truly have all of my gratitude, thank you thank you thank you, Linda, for quite literally saving me. 🩷
Your videos make my day Linda. Im a teen girl and the things you say in this video are really relatable. Thanks for spreading so much positivity. you make me feel so much better about my self.
linda, i’ve always really looked up to you and admired you as a person, and this video really means a lot to me 🤍 i had a moment when i went “she looks like me” and i instantly started sobbing because i’ve always felt so insecure about my body (especially when surrounded by peers who are dancers when i’m not a dancer myself, and many of whom fit the thin asian beauty standard). but you are so so beautiful and it just made me wonder why i look at myself so critically all the time and beat myself up for every little thing. self-acceptance and self-love is a journey and it’s one that i’ll always continue to work on getting better at 🤍 love you so much linda, thank you for this and for everything ♥️
self-acceptance and love is defo a journey, but like I always like to remind ppl who watch my vlogs on TH-cam, BABY STEPS,
I myself use to have super low self-esteem and use to be so critical of myself as a whole, but doing TH-cam has definitely help me lots and I hope to help others find their way to more self-compassion and self-love
I was literally waiting for ur videos for weeks bcz i just needed them so much bcz linda sun you are literally the best you don't know wht impact u have on me....ur words ur expressions means so much...and u gave the much needed motivation to love myself, my body and me.....i just love you and i hope you get all thw happiness in the world bcz u deserve all of it♡
reminder that you deserve it tooo
i hope one day u will have your own podcast cause i love your voice , it really calms me down and u inspire me so much , i stopped hating my body when i started whatching your videos . LOVE U !!!!!
Thank you Linda, for being who you are🤍.
thank you for this comment
Linda, don't ever ever ever stop making content.
thank you linda 🥹 you’re videos are so inspirational. if you were to ever start a podcast, i’d be a frequent listener and i feel like i can learn so much from you. 💕
I can congratulate you enough for havind the COURAGE to show us the truth... you are the one who is true.... congratz, congratz, congratz, congratz.... love you for showing us this... because its hard... for me, and i dont have body issues, but you are even better.
Thank you for your courage
agree
actually on monday I uploaded a vlog talking exactly about the same topic, and I was really afraid that it was a topic that was too controversial, but when I saw that Linda talked about it too a day after, I felt that I did the right thing
ty for this. this is the entire reason i’m subbed. you are doing amazing things for so many people ❤
literally that and the fact that she is the inspiration to my TH-cam channel, like she is the one that made me finally feel a bit of confidence to start sharing my self-growth journey and help others do the same, and now I can not see a day where I don't love creating content
I hope one that I can do what she does to ppl like you to so many others 😄
same 💕
Thankyou linda for reminding me to love myself a little more each day and appreciate the life and body I have and not to spend time just thinking about numbers rather enjoying every moment and just create some good memories 🥹💜.....Love you linda
memories in the end is all that we have left when we are no longer here
and like I say often on my TH-cam channel vlogs, the only thing in life that is constant is change, therefore the more we internalise this the more we can start enjoying life instead of barely surviving it
@@oxanadc this is something that literally trying to recover is teaching me like and I'm glad that at least we all started somewhere even if that step is small💜🔥.....I'm so proud of everyone out their trying to recover
truly I love supporting other with whatever journey they are in the whole reason I continue to do self-growth vlogs hoping to reach ppl that need them
These videos are truely my comfort place, I get a free space from the thoughts in my head when I listen to your videos♡
I cried within the first seconds of this video
I love how you connect with your mom over yoru meal together. Beautiful. I'm struggling with these same things and while I can grant other bodies permission to be larger, it's somehow still just so hard to do the same for myself.
NEW VIDEO YAY!!!
YAY THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE
Linda I just wanted to say thank you , truly thank you for everything . I have hated my body and the way I look for my whole life , I’ve had an unexplainable hatred for everything about myself for as long as I can remember and your videos are actually the only thing that give me hope . Whenever I watch your videos they make me feel ok and content with myself and body. You give me hope that I will finally get better and I will be able to eat and enjoy food without guilt or counting . Thank you for everything and for making me feel ok and understood
I saw this video a week ago and decided to try to start ED recovery. Now a week later, it has been tough but I’m trying. I suppose I just needed a little “push” in the right direction and this video really gave me it. Your videos are so great, your words so wise and so comforting. They really make you think. When I struggle with meals, feel myself filled with regret, guilt, anxiety and an urge to stop fighting i just go to your channel and pick any video and just listen to your words to help me get my mind on the right track. Thank you, Linda, because even if you didn’t know it yet you really helped this 15 year old behind this comment and I’m sure you helped so many more❤❤❤
thank you linda, you’re such a kind hearted person.
you make me aspire to become better, mentally and physically, and bring so much comfort whenever i’m feeling down.
hope you can always be happy for the rest of your life, you are so loved !!!
Yours is one of the channels I go to when I need something to watch while eating. So when you said thank you for eating with me, somehow I felt seen, and it made me so happy.
I just love how they explain everything to us so we can understand them , and they make it fun so we don't get bored or distracted ( which happens to me very often) plus they are having fun to which is amazing. So thank you! You're amazing guys!
we love you
I love you 🥹
You are helping me heal everyday, I'm not fully the me I used to be...but one day I will be and I thank you for that.
like I say on my own TH-cam vlogs BABY STEPS, take it day by day, you will get there
it might seem like you are not who you were, but slowly you can discover that
and the thing is that's the beauty of life, that u get 24 hours to discover who you are
and that's what I love sharing on my own TH-cam channel, that the beauty of life is change
Linda, seeing your video updates excite me. You’re inspirational! I hope you know your value on TH-cam! Stay happy, stay positive and let’s grow together!
This is comforting for a struggling 13 yo right now. I love watching ur videos when my ed gets in the way, so i can feel better about eating. Thank you❤️🫶
always here for you
just a reminder that if u continue to choose yourself everyday you will get there, sending you lots of strength and love
u can do this, and like I say on my own TH-cam channel BABY STEPS, take it slowly as it comes, and you can get there
Lindaaa i lovee you ,you make me laugh when I don’t want to ,I consider you my best friend now i watch you everywhere whenever i feel bad you realy changed my mindset alot thank you for everything you are an awesome person you make alot of people love their life ❤️
this made my day thank you my friend
this is such a wholesome message/
and I am glad to hear you found a safe place in this mess of a world, and reminder that you too are awesome, and your uniqueness is what makes you wonderful,
Linda, i got back to your videos just in oerfect timing. I m recovering from anorexia, (weight´s already restored) but i am in the over eating phase, sometimes more, sometimes less, and so my body´s changed a lot. and im am judging myself so hard. THANK YOU for this, i know this is not recent, but im going to binge watch ur videos. I LOVE YOU
I love it how much effort you put in your videos! I can’t imagine how long it takes!
as someone who does yt vlogs too I always appreciate the editing bc I know how much time it takes, especially with university studies on the side, as I am a student myself too
You have no idea how much i love watching your videos. You help people all around the world with your beautiful messages and kindess, i love you linda
your videos feel like a warm hug after a long & stressful day
i can’t explain how much i love ur videos and mindset.
thank you 🥹🥹🥹
same this is the mindset I advocate for on my own TH-cam channel, and I hope more of us can adopt this
You are so motivational. I’ve been procrastinating my homework until night so whenever you post I get this nice boost. :-)
reminder that it's okay to give yourself some time and not be productive the whole day and that taking some time to yourself is always needed
and she is truly motivational Without her I would not have started my own yotube channel trying got motivate others to see how wonderful they already are
Your body works with all the systems to keep you alive and healthy, and it carries you on those legs and helps you with your arms and your senses are thanks to your face! Your body is worth it not because of how it looks but because of how good and reliable it is!
Linda, you have no idea how much you are helping people around the world with your videos. I'm 14 years old and i have been struggling with an eating disorder since I was 11, now that im in recovery i watch your videos every single day because you help me so much to stay motivated and to remind me to never go back. Words cant explain how much i appreciate your content. Ilysm ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
your personality, voice and every thing are js so nice like you’re gorg inside and you!! Keep being you and being as positive and uplifting to yourself and everyone! Take breaks when you need. I’ve watched your videos for awhile now and I love that you do lots of voiceovers and your meals always look so yummy!! Btw Milo is so cute likeee
literally such a wholesome message that reminds me as well why I do what I do
I love sharing small reminders on my TH-cam channel while sharing my chaos of a life, just so other can see and slowly discover themselves as I do the same alongside them
I just found this channel a couple days ago, and it's already helped so much! I feel normal for being hungry and eating! You make me so motivated to go and make food and eat something I really want to eat. Thank you so much for spreading this information! I know it helps so many people!
I LOVE YOU
I’m gonna come back to this from time to time 😭
This has a huge impact, you’ve no idea lindaaaaa
that is what I love about her videos that u can come back to them whenever u need this specific reminder
another reason why I started my own TH-cam channel, where I give small reminders to ppl, because I think those are always helpful and that is all I want to do help others through their self-growth journey
every time you post a video, you give me one more ounce of love for myself 💞💞 love you linda ^^
OMG FINALLY I MISSED YOU❤❤❤❤❤
I MISSSSSED YOUUUUU
wow your point about physical, mental, emotional hunger is so so true. I never thought about breaking up hunger like that. And thank you for reframing stillness as healing, not laziness. I’ve found myself being still a lot lately, and judging myself for it but perhaps my body was just recharging.
I always have a feeling like i’m talking to myself when watching your videos 🫶🏼 Appreciate your speech alwaysssss and wish u happiness 🍻
wishing u happiness too, and if you need a friendly reminder I also do some yt vlogs that I think you might enjoy
This video come on the exact time I needed 🙁 i love you linda you are strong and beautiful woman
reminder that you are a strong and beautiful and wonderful too
Just watching this video once has helped me so much. I’ve dealt with body image issues, a bad relationship with food, and body dysmorphia since elementary school, and I’ve never really thought of my body like what you said. I’m literally crying this video is so so so amazing and I will definitely come back to it when I’m feeling bad about my body
You know I’m addicted to Caroline girvan when I know exactly what workouts your doing by the moves 😅 thank you for your content ❤
I really missed you and your videos so I am glad you posted today. You are the only one I watch in this type of content because who you are and you helped me a lot. Thank you for doing youtube and making videos for us❤❤
yep I could never express with words how thankful I am to have her in my life, without her I would have never had the courage to start my own TH-cam channel and help others through their own healing journey
thank you Linda this video was incredible 💕
today I came home from a stressful school day and went completely overboard on the Halloween candy. I am so glad I watched this. I feel much calmer and less hopeless. I am going to reflect on what happened from a place of self love instead of trying to undo my actions. You inspire me to walk away from my negative habits and strive for an authentic healthy life, not just one that looks healthy on the outside.
also reminder that this day is a once in a year opportunity to make these memories
and If you struggle with self-love I have some yt videos that I've done about self-love as I am in that journey myself
