Happy new year. I am so glad I found your channel. You have encouraged me to fight for my weight loss and health. I haven’t been to a GP for over 10 years. I fell into the pattern of taking care of others before myself. I’m almost 50 and now it’s my turn. I went to a new GP a couple weeks ago and I’m getting this ball rollin. Thank you for all that you do.
My goal for the new year has been the same for the past 25 years: Survive! My life has been like breakdancing on crutches during an earthquake with a tornado for mood vibes. It's been a lot. It's only started calming down in the last 3 years, but I'm not ready to set different goals yet.
Happy New Year Lauren. I started my new year on Nov 1st. Congrats on being sober I started with that back in 2010. 2024 I lost my mom to brain cancer. I cant play with my future any longer. Love ya. Sending love and blessings to you and the fam for all the best coming to y'alls way.❤
I’m one of your OG subs, back when you guys were doing Keto!! And I’m so, so proud of you!! ❤️💕🙏🏼 I’ve gained this year (the last 6 months or so) in 2023 early 2024ish, I lost 33lbs…. And I’ve gained 15 pounds of that back… while I’m not back at ground zero again, I’m inching ever closer to it…. So I am ready to get back on that bus too!! So I’m waiting at the bus stop for you to pick me up!! 🚌🚐🚍🚏 We got this!! ❤️💕🙏🏼
Even if you started at ground zero it doesn’t matter !! As long as we never stop trying we never fail ❤️❤️Thankyou for sticking with me all these years it means the world to me 😭💕🥹
I too am in a food rut I’m eating a lot of the same meals every day!! But I’ll share some what I’m eating in a days this coming year!! Just Incase it can spark some new stuff for you ❤️
Loved the garage chat sweetie! I did what you talked about and at 54 and god only knows how many pounds I got down on the floor and made repairs to my home and girl I got up on my own! You are so motivating and this is probably the hardest phase of my life and the most freeing phase of my life! It’s a zoo but we’re doing it! I’m more than a cheerleader I’m also able to help some and that just gives me so much joy and accomplishment. Happy New Year! Thanks for your inspiring chat, I hope your mom will join you for garage chat soon! Loved your podcast with your mom btw. Hugs ❤
Also I sent you a marathon instant message, sorry not sorry 😂. You have been that positive, inner voice reminding me I can do this!!! I cannot wait to get back to beach walks and sunsets. I live in a gorgeous place and I’m blessed. I truly credit you because it’s your vlogs that inspired me in my weight loss and I have more to go but I’m so proud!
Your health journey has been so inspiring to me! Physical, mental, etc. My New Year's Resolution is to focus on my health (not focus on weight); to be a healthier, happier me!
My new year resolutions are to continue to lose weight, to come of my prescription morphine, to continue my recovery journey and to keep my health on the recovery rd also. Happy New Year Lauren xx
@ I’m doing withdrawal through the pain clinic. I’m under strict instructions to go very slowly. I’ve already taken the fast release morphine out of my body completely. Started that back end of October. Going through some withdrawal symptoms at the moment. But that because I stop my last tablet on 29th and symptoms hit yesterday, so it’s usually 3-4days of feeling rubbish, so should be feeling better by tomorrow. Thanks for your caring message. Apart from family, some friends and the pain clinic they have given me so much support, can’t thank them enough. There’s no support groups (people going through medical (medication) for people like myself, I was told to attend meetings run by DA but I’m not in that group. I honestly think there needs to be better support for people like myself!! But I’m doing it and I’m feeling so much better for doing it xx
Well we have gotten through the last several years of horrrible sh!t so yes we can keep going. You look fab you are glowing. So glad you are still friends with Kaitlin, not surprised you tend to have friends for years and years, I like that and it says so much about who you are. I appreciate that Ella's wishes are respected and you do not force anything on her.
My goal for January is to take a small step toward making a creative business a reality. I also want to bring back my happiness because I feel I've lost it for a while. Be awesome and happy new year to your family. ❤
And I'm proud of you. I have watched you grow and shrink and also mature. You have grown into such a great mommy while also battling hard things. You have met obstacles in your young life and you have killed them. I know that by sharing your journey, you have inspired and he!ped so many others. Read that again and soak it in. I want you to know that. Happy New Year to you and the family!
I lost 75 pounds on glp1 meds but broke my femur and was bed ridden for a few weeks, then rehab hospital, then home with nurses , physical therapy etc. I had to stop meds for a few months gained about 12-15 pounds from being sedentary. Going back on meds in February hopefully still want/ need to lose 50 more pounds. You look amazing
Lauren Thank you for this video! It’s very inspiring to me to hear your story. I’m in shot 2 if maunjaro due to type 2! It’s already brought my blood sugar down to numbers I have not seen! I tried so hard to not go on meds for 4 years but I’m realizing I really needed the help. I’m motivated to move more in 2025, and get healthy! Like you I’ve wanted this for years! I can do it! ❤ Jamie
Happy New Years Eve wishing you all the best and successes in 2025, I hope you have a prosperous,healthy loving New Year. My resolution is finishing to my goal weight and get my tummy tuck ❤🎉
Girl i needed this i just Love you. I think your best videos and ranting wonderful things are done in your car 😂❤❤ Happy New Year to you and your sweet family🎉 Many Blessings and Love to y'all 💕💕
Oh my goodness I’ve been a sub for years like 4 and just noticed my button asked to subscribe? Thank goodness I noticed this please people check your subscriptions of who you follow! This was extremely motivating Lauren thank you.❤
Happy New Year 🎉 I luv Ur channel ❣️ I've been with U from the start and I luv ur family ❤️ I too have been on a weight loss journey I've lost 140lbs intermittent fasting I can't exercise due to being disabled I have 50 lbs left to lose that's my goal for this year so I know U and I can meet our goals! Please Vlog more this year I miss U when Ur gone 😊 take care and God Bless U❤
I love that you've been able to do all that you have Lauren and with you nothing but the best I pray that 2025 is a great one for you and the family. Not everyone can do the same things we all have different levels, different budgets or other things that affect what we can do. With that said do your absolute best to take care of your body and I mean absolute best and we all know ourselves and what is truly our best and need to be honest with ourselves about that. I'm not able to do what you do anymore due to severe disabilities and budget restraints but I do my best with what I've got to work with and though I may not be physically able to do things that I used to I still do everything that I can to do what I can. Even at treatment in hospital yesterday the nurses were amazed at much I try despite going through all that I do while fighting for my life. Just walking down the hallway with my walker to treatment and back is a full workout. What is 10min for a regular healthy person is more like 30-40min for me but that's ok I'm still giving it my all and that's what matters. Don't compare yourself to others in a way that you think less of your accomplishments when you're truly giving your all. We're not promised tomorrow and none of us will get out of here alive but what we can do is live the best we can, not take anything for granted and make the best of whatever comes our way while thanking God for His rich blessings we get trusting Him while on this journey. All I want is to "Well done my good and faithful servant" whenever my time is done so my goal for every year is to do whatever needs to be done to hear that while trusting and obeying Him until He calls me home.
I wish that I didn't feel this way but all I keep thinking is "Yeah but you had all the money you needed to get the shots to help you lose weight." That alone is such a humongous hurdle for so many of us because insurance usually won't pay for stuff like that. That's wonderful that you've had the opportunities you've had but you are one of the lucky ones. 💜
I'm coincidentally changing up a couple of things in my life as the New Year begins. But I'm not calling them resolutions, because I never met a resolution I couldnt break. It's the 31st, so why not take tonight to get my plans in order and start in in the morning?
I gave up THC in October and am more focused and less forgetful. I was taking edibles every night, but the spaciness would carry over to the next day. I wish I could use them occasionally, but that doesn’t work for me which is weird because I only drink alcohol occasionally.
I would just like to be better all around. Do better as a mom, as a wife, do better to myself with what I eat, work my greeting cards business....that needs more sales for sure, spend more time with my family doing things without screens.
Do feel bad I don’t shop that often and just get a haircut and shop at are only local thrift shop or on sale for my hair I us drugstore hair care only so don’t feel bad at all it save you lots I’ve done it for years and for my books too and dollar store too
My new year revolution is to get my upper body stronger so I can do more for my nonverbal CP 5 year old grandson as he try to walk I have to help him he loves to walk and is getting there baby steps my mom died from alcoholism at age of 47 on 7/29/99
I love Kaitlin and Kaidale. Last video was her sharing her new plan to upload 3times a week. I have not seen her at all in over a couple months, so I hope all is well. I love you, Lauren . May this new year be blessed in ways beyond what you can imagine . ❤❤❤🎉❤❤ The light of God in us is more powerful than any darkness. PLEASE, DONT SAY YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU WANT. With so much enthusiasm. Or Christ ittians will Say, I can do all things in Christ who loves me. If you just really think about it a little, we know we cant do any we want. A 5ft 3in guy, who wants to be in THE NBA, CAN PRAY AND HAVE TRUE FAITH. IT WILL NOT HAPPEN. I love your encouraging spirit Lauren. I just am very frustrated with using verses, that are not literal. Blessings ❤️🩹🦋💜
Love to be loss weight and be little like I was in high school right I’m getting old what me husband said to me we only drink every full moon so don’t feel bad you are doing great if you were closer you be a girl I be friends with
