A few words from me:
I was terrified to post this video. I don’t want you guys to think looking a certain way is the answer to happiness and confidence. Confidence is a mindset, not a body. Confidence, FOR ME, stems from how I live my everyday life, my routine, the people I surround myself with and how I treat my body. Health and confidence are different for everyone. But, at least personally, health and confidence are corresponding. I lost what health meant to me for a little bit. I got lost in growing up and changing and dealing with young adult things… but that’s part of my journey. This is just one month of re-learning what a healthy, confident, balanced life means to me again. This is personal to me. I love my body, so I want to remind you guys that you always deserve to feel your best. And that can encompass anything and everything from self-care, nutrition, food freedom, movement, therapy, better sleep, focusing on yourself, deleting TikTok, buying new pants, gratitude lists, etc. I love you guys. Be kind to yourself, your mind and your body. Do it for you 💗

“I was unhappy with the way I was living, not the body I was living in.” Wow. Such powerful words. I’m recovering from an ED and am having a hard time right now since I’ve gained a little weight while studying abroad in Italy this semester. I expected this video to kind of trigger me. It did not. I’m so happy to see a TH-camr focus on life and habits and not weight or look. Thank you.
Keep at it girl! ❤ what part of Italy are you in? I live near Milan 😊
Same
@@ayanabutterfly Firenze!
Oh my gosh italy, what a dream:) how was the food? How was the architecture? Were the guys so handsome? Haha 💗
Hang in there! Try to focus on the good things :)
@@SeaFlower38 Everything is wonderful! Beautiful food, art, and people!
Taking charge of your health and regaining your confidence isn’t easy especially when you’re juggling so much. This is so relatable and I’m so proud of you for sharing your story and deciding to change the things you didn’t like. This is beyond inspiring and I’m definitely taking a page out of your book. Proud of you girl 💜💜
I literally see your comments everywhere ur soo sweet leaving them down on each video 😭
YOURE SO SWEET THANK YOU
Very well said. Same! I'm taking notes now, I find myself in this same space and I've had ENOUGH.
@@hibaqadam1271 yessssss omg
Army right?💜
I love this generation so much. You're my son and daughters age and I'm so proud of you. I'm 40 and I've learned so much from you and from a lot of "kids" your age. May this generation keep being free and teaching us (older generation) how to be free to.
Sending love from Portugal ❤️
I’m 33, I feel like I’m sorta btwn like my parents or even older my siblings who are your age and then those who are like HS/College age where I’m sorta growing with this new way of things but it’s especially hitting the generations younger then me , was just telling my mom tonight how much I love the changes with younger gens! While some complain of the “kids these days” or young adults these days - I do see some of that too, but I def feel it depends on who your talkin about , surround yourself with and follow ,’these days the younger generations are so much more open minded they are so willing to learn and grow and change and I just love it!! I love following younger ppl I feel like they are so mature they feel my age and I relate to a lot of them , honestly love watching following and learning from ppl like this more than a lot of ppl older bc they’re so narrow minded and negative - obviously not all ppl lol but you know what I mean! You seem to see it too! I love the new way of things it’s such a breath of fresh air!! ⛅️
@@AVx00 I’m the same age and I agree! It does feel like an in between even though I relate a lot to the younger generations more than older but I’m in between both.
@@88ashjen YES! I get so frustrated with people older or even my age that have just stayed in the old way of being/thinking. I just can’t understand being that way. I can’t understand when you realize how much change is happening , how much happier, mentally healthier, willing to change , realizing the importance of growth etc etc is just so much more refreshing and why just stay narrow minded and stubborn? These days you see so many young ppl chasing their dreams, not caring what ppl think. Not feeling like they have to follow their families footsteps of going to school for things they aren’t even actually into. Not rushing into settling down in relationships and instead getting a place of their own learning who they are and how to be independent. The morning / night routines that are so inspiring to watch n learn from but also such common habits in ppls every day life, small changes to your day that make drastic dif in your happiness. It’s like so many ppl I know my age or older just complain all the time, yet it’s so easy to me to find even simple ways to make change for them to be happier n I’m sure no professional. Just amazing what opening ur mind realizing there’s always room for growth can do.. I could honestly go on so I’ll shut up now lmao. I am so big on this, but so very thankful to have bumped into so many creators of other ppl who’ve opened my eyes to such a happier way of living . It’s night n day , insane difference. I teach my kids this stuff all the time.’they are so darn lucky to grow in a time like this! It’s like I’d love to give out doses of realizing there’s more to life to ppl lmao🤪
This generation has its pros and cons
This was so beautiful and somehow healing to read. Thank you. ❤
“It’s never too late.” Your friend just motivated me with the most simple arrangements of words. That statement can really make you think about what you’re doing with your life, and what you can still do in the future.
Six months later… still in the same place, and i’ve even gained weight. It’s been hard. I’m starting right now though, and I hope I can come back with a healthier version of myself.
@@angelesskies im going thru the same things, we can do it!!
@@angelesskiesa tip: never starve yourself! starving sometimes will cause an eating disorder, that will cause weight gain. good luck!
@@angelesskiesHope you Feeling better❤️
Update?
22:05 “When I envision the person I want to be, I don’t know what she looks like or how she eats or how much she weighs, but she is happy and whole and has forgiven herself and fuels her body and LOVES HER STRENGTH.”
I hope Linda writes a book one day bc I would 1000% buy it immediately! she is so wise for her age 💕
I agree she is wise at her age....love her perspective
right!?
This makes me want to cry, Linda. I haven’t resonated with something on the internet like this in a long time, if ever. Thank you for making this. It’s honestly a peace of art.
Same here 💞
I did cry girl I did!! I’ve had to watch this in stages through out my day! But it truly motivated me to get up and get done things I’ve been procrastinating on for weeks !!!
So true ❤ she deserves an award
yesssss
This video made me cry. I have been depressed for 9 years and just started Wellbutrin XL. It's like my life did a 180. I like to workout and take care of my body now. My water intake, my body, and my mind are important to me again. I haven't truly felt like this ever. I went on 2 walks today to get sunshine and air, did yoga, lifted weights, went on a jog, and then stretched. What a beautiful Sunday! I understand wanting to change after feeling happy and not realizing how bad I truly felt. I'm a better, happier version of me and I'm happy!
oh my god thats so great and im so proud of u 🥺♥im surprised no one commented yet but ig i'll be the first hehe, it must feel so nice to finally have control on ur life again, to love life and start living it. im only just starting but im getting there bit by bit, and its magical how easy it is to laugh again, to not have a weight on my shoulders. once again very proud of u!!! and continue to be thriving and happy and content
Shoutout Wellbutrin one time 🫶🏾
this made my day. im so happy for you and i aspire to be in this mentality.🙏🏼
That’s awesome. I myself take Wellbutrin & it’s saved my life. I been consistently working out for 5 years because of it
my wellbutrin cured me, but i had to stop because it caused uncontrollable sweating (which was 100% the medication since it was never something i suffered with before). now just struggling without wellbutrin 😢
This video reminds me of the time when I was learning how to cook. I had just bought the diet plan (created it from Next Level Diet) at the age of 18 and started preparing my own meals from the food I got in the plan. I was so motivated back then. I broke my barriers when it comes to amount of food I can eat in a day, resulting in noticeable gains for a newbie. I recommend everyone to take care of their diet first, the rest will come naturally.
Absolutely. I found once I started eating better, and watching my eating habits, it motivated me to do better in other areas. Good tip
this is so true. I've been going to the gym since April and I saw a difference, but it was not much and it's because my diet was horrible and now I haven't gone to the gym in a month and i feel crappy. but that's because of the food ive been eating.
“Tolerating my body because sometimes loving it is just not possible yet”. That line made me cry and will stick with me. This entire video was eye-opening but that line in particular really resonated with me because I’ve always hated when people say you have to love yourself where you’re at and I mean I can say those words but they’re not true. I don’t like my body but I can tolerate my body now knowing that I’m doing things slowly to make it better and loving it later.
Same 😭😭😭😭
I relate. I also think, having an ED history, it’s easy to sometimes be like “in the name of kicking my ED’s ass/recovery I will now excuse this overconsumption of XYZ” when really you know you’re past the point of enjoyment, past the point of wanting it or whatever. Not talking about initial recovery obviously or extreme hunger etc, that is the time to let your body handle the situation and eat eat eat. But for those of us who’ve been long recovered I can relate to kind of swinging too far the other way to numb out or whatever while justifying it with like, convincing myself I’m just “that awesome now at recovery” does that make sense? When really we all know when we are being good to ourselves or not
i relate to this comment on a whole new level. i really resonate this this. sending you all love💞
I feel this so much-
completely agree! I've been feeling like this so much recently. Justifying overeating with 'oh I just need to give my body what it craves', and then eating a bunch of junk.
YES!
@@boglarkakurucz yes! The road to intuitive eating isn’t as easy as it sounds at first
I started watching this video hoping to find tips on how to lose weight, but rather I gained knowledge on how to love myself and the journey I’m on the become a healthier, happier version of me. As someone who struggled for a long time with things like this, thank you.
you are the only health youtuber who doesn’t make me feel bad about my actions, thank you
I needed to see this video so badly. Thank you for sharing your journey
same
I can’t be the only one who sees Linda as a glowing, beautiful woman. I seriously cannot see the flaws she sees in her body. I’m not trying to minimize how she feels. I’m there myself: hating my body, feeling depressed and anxious. Linda we love you, but what’s most important is for you to continue learning to love yourself. Prioritize you.
Lots of love from Australia 💛
This made me feel so much less alone in my journey with not only trying to feel healthy physically but also mentally. I haven't been able to find anyone who could describe it as well as this and for that thank you. I needed this little bit of motivation to get going and continue pushing
At 21 you got stuff figured out that I'm still working on in my 40s. Thank you sharing. As someone else pointed out in the comments, it is a peace of art and it really resonated. Something I needed to see today believe me. And all the foods looks amazing.
THE ENDING TEXT EDIT HAD ME DYING ON THE FLOOR - YOURE SO CREATIVE AND CLEVER!!
I'm not sure if you read your comments, Linda, but I can relate a lot to you. I'm in my eating disorder recovery stage where I'm more focused on colourful meals focused on taste rather than calories. I do at home workouts with my own weights, following Sydney Cummings tutorials. I'm a big exercise freak who feels so good from feeling strong. I also am a complete foodie who wants to open her own ice cream shop in the future. I can relate to a lot of emotions and thoughts you express in your videos. I'm a writing major and digital media arts minor, so I HAVE SO MUCH RESPECT for the edits and the amount of time you spend on your videos. From transitions to audio, you are a creative genius. You're so inspiring and I watch you when I make and eat my fear foods. You remind me what life can look like when you decide to live it with balance, self-compassion, flexibility, and mistakes. We can be so hard on ourselves and you reveal struggles through vulnerability in such a beautiful, genuine, human approach. From your visuals to your background music, every video you post is pristine. I want to emulate you in so many ways for my future TH-cam videos. Thank you for committing to creating and inspiring. Maybe someday I'll meet you, but for now, I'll try my best to emulate your passion to inspire others. Only two more weeks of uni classes before summer break! I'm ready to create.
I can relate so much to this. Really enjoy working out, but a back issue needs me to put it on hold. Sometimes I feel like I could choose only one- looking good or feeling good and eating good... hopefully I'll find the perfect balance
Let's create some stuff in the summer
woah good luck! btw i read your comment and i relate to the part where you said you had ed disorder. i'm currently struggling to overcome it and i have a dream to become a singer and a rapper since a young age (i'm 16 now) i'm always happy to see that i'm not the only one with big dreams. i hope we both overcome our problems and i wish you luck with achiving dreams🥰
I love this message! Good luck on your journey
@@btsxarmy3xoxo623 I rarely comment, but somehow your short comment immediately spoke to me. I genuinely wish you the best of luck on your journey to overcome whatever you are going through, and to make your dream of being a singer and a rapper a reality. Your struggles don't define you. Without doubt, your bright future will outshine the shadows of your past. You've still got your whole life in front of you, so take the time you need to accomplish whatever you've always hoped for. It's okay not to have everything figured out. That's normal. If your goals ever change, that's okay too. Follow your heart. Become the 'you' that matches your soul best. It's never too late to start over, change your habits, transform your mindset or start a new beginning.
"Life isn't speed, but direction" - Kim Namjoon (2022)
And to Annika Olson: your comment on this impressive TH-cam video was a such a delight to read. Something about the way you worded your thoughts ... You are undeniable a writer at heart. Thank you for sharing your story. Truly. I wish you a lot of joyful and creative days ahead! And the cosy ice cream shop of your dreams. Don't lose your spark.
I loved when you said that you’re weight gain was a symptom, but not the root of the problem and that your low self esteem because of it definitely didn’t help. You’re so strong💕
I am literally sobbing right now. you made such an influence on me. I am definitely starting to fight this eating disorder now and having a better relationship with my body.
Watching this genuinely made me smile because she was smiling and she was saying stuff that actually meant something. The way this was put together and the link at the end and everything was just ahhhh I loved it so much. My love you are freaking amazing
Beautiful video Linda :)
A
This is basically how I've been feeling these days. The exact same way with school, my bodyimage, my eating habits... You really are a comfort person to me. Thank you for reminding all of us that we are not alone and that this is ok to feel this way. I love you girl !
watching her little healing journey and by that I mean the whole process, genuinely makes me so happy and so proud of her.
I am very sure this would not have been easy
Holy crap. This is my first time watching any of your videos and for the first time ever, I was on the brink of crying (didn’t actually cry but the fact that I was close is a first). The narration, the relatable videos/motivational talk, the music.. it literally touched my soul like no video ever has.
I feel like I’ve been thinking about my health a lot and just being better for my future self, but beating myself up for not accomplishing my health goals when I wanted to. Thank you for the time and effort into making this video. You’ve encompassed and addressed all my feelings in one video.
You’ve definitely earned yourself a new subscriber.
PS: I can’t believe you’re only 21. I am impressed with your emotional growth. Things I’m barely learning at 27. If at anytime you feel down about anything, just know that we are here for you and there’s quite literally nothing in life we know you couldn’t handle. I wish you the best in life ❣️
I’m literally like what you were. Having been lethargic+sad with no reason. Or sometimes I’m just so tired to wake up do the same things that I used to think it’s productive everyday. Yesterday I talked to my therapist. He got me realized that I have lots of good people around ready to support and cheer me up. You’re one of those people, Linda. Thanks for making video even though it’s the time you struggled with you’re life too. You’re the best in every single way. Love you!💖
Go to Jesus . He loves you .
I needed you right now, more than anything, without even realizing it, so this notification just made me smile❤️❤️❤️ you are amazing, thank u 🌟❤️❤️
Right? I saw it and was like “ooooooh I was just thinking about this”
Linda Sun,
please never stop making videos.Your journey and struggle echoes mine and watching you embracing the journey,is actually turning out to be my starting point❤
I just came across your video and I already love ya! You’re so relatable, real and raw with your followers! Your journey sounds a lot like my journey this past year and I’m glad I found your video when I did bc I just made my comeback after regaining my mental health. Here’s to taking care of not only our bodies but our minds.
Amazing video, Linda😀 I had no idea what kind of junk I was eating my whole life. I got terribly fat and worst thing is I wasn't noticing it until I went to doctor for a checkup and my results were terrible. That's when I decided to start living healthy. Bad thing is I am lazy and hate to research about food and I just couldn't count calories all the time so I decided to invest in a meal plan from Next Level Diet. Best thing I got myself in this life. I lost so much fat and got so much more energy when I started eating healthy.
I've honestly never resonated with something so much, but it's a cycle I've been stuck in for YEARS. Thank you so much for this video, it came to me at the perfect time in my life.
when you said those last words of the video about how i am HER, it made me so emotional i really cried! It agree with you on these words, “I was unhappy with the way I was living, not the body I was living in.”. Thank you so much for these words!!
I have a binge eating problem, and recently I've been slowly trying to move my body more and change my 'eating because of emotions' habit into 'eating because food makes me able to do the things I love'.
Your channel really inspires me. Thank you.
Okay why did I cry when she said "I needed to get lost so I could re-find my way"... It was beautiful. In a world that is so focused on aesthetics and numbers and associate it to success and happiness, it feels nice to see someone normalizing the more messy approach to stay happy and healthy.
We love to see your mindset shift and we're sooo excited to see where you will go next on your journey Linda!
I am absolutely, head over heels, IN LOVE WITH YOU!!! Your openness, self evaluation, and self love is amazing. And to do it in such a generous way. I am sure sharing this was a vulnerable endeavor, but we are all better for it! So thank you...all this time later it's still giving!
This. THIS is IT. I have been feeling like this but I have not been able to articulate or arrange all the pieces in my head to explain what you expressed at the end of this video, but it was there, waiting and wanting to be discovered fully. My journey is finally not about a size, destination or a perfect outfit...its about my lifestyle and my longevity health. I love my body, but I have been so unkind to her. Its now time to make amends and show her how incredible she is and always has been, no matter what I have put her through.
I didn't know you before, this video popped up on my home page out of nowhere, but now i'm 7 minutes in and crying because i'm happy that you're being kinder to yourself and doing things that are good to and for you. this was beautiful and inspiring. also sundubu jjigae looks amazing
I've been worrying about what you've were talking about in the beginning of the video. Because I had a similar problem with food. Food was my only comfort in life, any emotion I had I turned to food, I was uncomfortable, I would eat when I wasn't hungry because my brain wanted a regulator, I would eat first thing in the morning even if I was stuffed from the snacks I used the night before to distract me from my negative emotions.
I was unhappy just like you. Finally I really faced myself and the fact that my only coping mechanism in life was food. it was SOOO hard building new coping strategies but over the last year I feel so much better. Sometimes I still find myself going to food but I know it's not my only coping mechanism now.
Edit: I wrote out some of my coping strategies in the replies below.
Do you have any tips to build new coping strategies? I have a similar problem
@@arf6899 try finding a hobby? When u have distrations other than food it will help. BUT in the longterm honestly u have to think about therapy.
@@arf6899 There's a lot of steps and layers.
-- So I was eating food to comfort and numb my emotions right, so big step is to face these emotions. this is where *"Stop, drop, and feel"* come in. You feel a binge coming on? stop everything you are doing, lay down on the floor or bed, and FEEL for 5-10 minutes on a timer. fully feel, cry, scream, feel the hopelessness fully. then once the time is up if you still NEED food to cope then allow it. if you do this every time you'll start to become aware of what might trigger emotional eating/binging and what you might be needing that you are denying yourself.
-- Another thought is *"what do I need right now?"* --> do I need a hug, do I need to talk with a friend, do I need time to rest, do I need help activating my *rest and digest state* after a long stressful day (relaxing your nervous system)?
Some simple coping strategies (Note: these do not take away the negative feelings you want to numb but they might help to cope long term)
1) going outside in green space (nature) for a few minutes each day with no devices. during stressful times I set myself a goal to go outside for 10 minutes every day.
2) Find something to learn about that you enjoy; read, watch videos on it, listen to podcasts
3) Give back to others (volunteering, acts of service, writing lil notes to people. this helps to get you out of your own head)
4) Have a morning and evening routine
5) Journal before bed. this can be hard/annoying for some. have a set couple of questions to ask yourself every night so you know what to write about (eg. how was I feeling today? How was my stress? How did my body feel today? What was one thing I liked about today? )
6) Hobbies are great if that's something you enjoy. I'm not a hobby person but every now and then I set a goal of drawing one simple thing a day for a week.
7) cleaning
8) as Linda said in the video, try to find joy and create joy in the little things
@ipiesings is also right that therapy may be needed. I never had that as an option and have found ways of basically doing self-therapy from learning about psychology and philosophy and healing techniques (eg. talking to and being there for your inner child/past self)
Note: if you are not eating enough for your body during the day then find yourself binging at night then you need to focus on fueling enough and regularly throughout the day. I used to have a set Breakfast, Lunch, Snack, Dinner schedule to help me with this. I also suffered from digestive issues so allowing time between meals and reducing snacking helped my comfort levels and get my hunger cues back.
I hope this helps. There's no magic pill. I wish you well in your healing journey.
Thanks to both of you, I will try what both of you suggested
I cried while watching this, it felt like i could breathe because i could forgive myself for what I used to put my body through.
Thankyou for being courageous and sharing this💛
sobbing within the first 30 seconds. your story is so important and i’m so grateful you are sharing it!!
this was the most motivating video i’ve ever seen. i’ve just gotten and new perspective on life and how i should live it, so thank you linda. i’ve struggled with most of the things you have in the past, and just like you, im trying to change the way i live my life bc it is not longer healthy and it’s just become way too stressful and honestly depressing. this video gave me a new understand as to why i started and why i am continuing to go on this intense, crazy, fun journey. it’s not to become someone im not or someone i see online, but to become the best version of myself and become comfortable in my own skin while still maintaining a healthy, happy, and balanced lifestyle. again, thank you thank you thank you linda for literally changing my mindset :)
Really needed to see this video, I’ve been struggling trying to find a good balance of being 22 and enjoying my youth but also sticking to fueling my body and achieving my physical and mental goals. Keep up the great work girl! Thanks for the inspiration:)
Listening to you is so comforting, you make me feel so safe Linda, thank you for being you
Linda this was genuinely a masterpiece. I hope you know just how inspirational you truly are. Your beautiful soul is such a gift! Much love xo
Linda I love you so much, you are truly an amazing human being. I and so many others are endlessly grateful for you and all your hard effort you put into these videos. You’ve helped me so much through my ongoing ED recovery. Thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart💕
I don't have any words. You're amazing. You're so inspiring. You just say what I'm afraid to realise for myself. And i can't stop appreciate you for it. Thanks for your experience, thanks for the way in which you share it with us❤️
your end commentary made me so emotional. thank you for continuing to stay true to yourself & help me learn to love myself always, as you’re learning to do the same.
Honestly I'm so thankful for coming accross your channel. Being a youtuber is truly for you. You have inspired me so much in this one video and Its so nice to see someone doing what they love and being so good at it. Love lexi xx
I actually love you so so much, your account just makes me so comfortable with myself and i always close TH-cam with a smile after watching your Videos! Please keep doing what you do, you insoire me to actually want a somewhat "healthy" lifestyle! xxxx
can i just tell you watching this really made me feel better. it's so important to take care of your body & mind and seeing this motivated me to work on my routines too. thank you so much!
you're an amazing person linda, like wow!! i just can't express how good i feel after i watch a vid of yours tq si much for being you , unfiltered and real . sending u loads of love
I loved the way you told your story! Every aspect, the visuals, music, narration everything was just so perfect💗
Tears in my eyes as I was watching this. I've been struggling with body image issues since forever and I workout aggressively not because i wanted to be better but just so I could feel like it. Did realise that we always will have insecurities no matter what and so it's important to go one day at a time steadily.... Thank you Linda,for this amazing video. 💖
I am so proud of you girl! ❤ thanks for making this video. You inspired me. Thank you, thank you 💞
omg this is SO WELL PUT TGT. the message, the story, the editing...this is god level work 😮💨
the fact that i’m going through something similar right now … and knowing there’s another person who can put into words how it feels has brought physical tears to my eyes . ☹️😢 thank you 🙏🏻
Linda, this is a genuinely fantastic video. The message, the editing... it's so so good. I found your channel from this video and I'm happy to say I'm a new subscriber! Keep up the great work, friend!
The ending made me cry. These are the words I needed someone to say to me at 11pm on a Saturday night looking up ways to lose weight. This was the most relatable video I’ve watched in a long time. Thank you for saying the words I needed to hear.
Hi!! I hope you’re doing great and succeeding in your weight losing journey!
I was in the process of changing my perspective on food and health last year, and your videos are so so helpful. I used to either be crazy restrictive or binge . Realizing that it's a lifestyle and that you want what's best for your body, helped me tons. Thank you so much for your videos, you don't know the amount of difference you make!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
After watching this video, I realized that this was my sign to change. Thank you, Linda. For the next month, I want to change my life for the better. Work out more consistently, eat for my body's benefit, and treat myself the way I should. GUYS please remind me of my goals cuz I will feel discouraged. THANK YOUU
I'm so happy I found this video!! I struggle with a binge eating disorder and to see you conquer this while encouraging yourself and us is just the push I needed to live the happy and healthy life we deserve ❤❤❤Love to all
Honestly one of the most relatable feelings ever (all of it). I have never seen anyone explain the proces this well. I mean, i am still struggeling to get my life on the road again, but it really helps to know that i am not alone and you sharing your story is definitely going to help!!
This video actually made me emotional. You really inspire a lot of people and i'm grateful that you think that it is okay not to have it all figured out. I am proud of what you have accomplished and you are such a beautiful person.
I’m tired of influencers who are ‘ bla bla I love my body, I will eat whatever a want’ and then ‘ I was depressed but now I’m ready to take care of shit that I’m putting in my body’
no one is born with the exact formula of balancing self love, body image and health while having fun. we are all growing learning and unlearning so her having a patch of doing things she doesn't do usually to distract herself is okay which led her to feeling not so great.
I stumbled across this video and enjoyed every aspect of it from the voiceover to the editing to the inspiration! Thank you for showing the realistic version of changing yourself to create a better YOU and not for other people. I needed this video! 10/10
I love how personal and real you are in this video I really thank you for addressing this and this video was so powerful I love hearing your thoughts your process and I would totally buy a book if you ever published one about your journey and how you’ve come to love yourself and trust yourself and truly love food
You have absolutely no idea how much I needed this video. I’ve never related to something so much but in my case it’s been years. Two weeks ago I had this completely change of mind and started eating healthier and focusing on me more. I think it was because even my own body was disgusted with me. Your video healed me, thank you so much
Hi Linda, this video just came up in my recommended here on TH-cam and I cannot express how timely that was! I have literally been feeling like you at the beginning of the video, frustrated by my clothes not fitting me and just feeling low in energy and moods. Just days ago I have come to the realisation that I have to change not because I have to look a certain way, but because I owe it to myself to feel happy and be the best version of myself. So seeing this video today felt like a sign to me and gave me the final push to start doing this! Thank you so much for this and subscribing to your channel now :)
"This year taught me I didn't move backwards, I didn't run in circles. I did get a little lost and I'm allowed to. I needed to so I could refind my way" Thanks so much for this- you are incredible and inspiring. Love your videos!
This has actually inspired me to change myself to become the better version of myself everyday. Thank you 😊
Linda, you are so incredible. You said so many of the things I needed to hear and didn't even know. Life has been chaotic, many things are out of my control and feeling lost has been a default setting of my brain. This video has given me some hope to fight for a happier self now, not in 3 or 6 months, I want to be happy for who I am today. So thank you, I'm glad to see you're happier and healthier.
Linda, you have no idea how much you inspire me to love my body and to take care of it. Watching your videos always soothes me and cheers me up. Continue to be awesome Linda, luv ya. ❤️❤️❤️
This is so beautiful 🥺💕I have no other words to describe it but watching another human enjoying the passage of time and looking after themselves and honouring themselves is so…beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing this.
This has to be the best video I’ve seen on body changes ever ,the positivity is insane ❤🔥
Thank you so so much, Linda. Some of the things you said are exactly what I felt the past few months but couldn't express. This is what I really needed to watch and hear now
It's crazy that I can say your videos have impacted me as deeply as they have ... but they have. Thank you so much for sharing you and your journey with the world!!
This is, by far, the best life-changing video I've watched in YT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE INSPIRATION 🥺❤️
Thank you for your honesty. You give me such positive thoughts and motivation to steer my life in the right direction again. Your videos push me and trigger so many feelings of happiness in me. Thank you Linda🙏💕
I love you Linda, i’ve followed you for a year when I was deep in my eating disorder and now i’m fully recovered! You helped me a lot during it. 💖
Good for you!😀😊😊💕
@@bells553 thank u sm :))
Congrats 💗💗💗💗
I'm so proud of you :) congrats
@@moonchildxo77742 thank you! much love
Honestly, Linda, I feel you. I've been struggling with food lately. And I'm making a change. It's hard, YES! But you know what? That's okay. We got this, guys. Together. Also, Linda, you've made such an impact on my life for the better. I wish you all the best. Love you tons, girl.
Love this video! We are all learning how to take better care of ourselves and I’m a firm believer the mental and physical are working together in the same way. Our bodies are meant to change and adapt to what we need to support our lives and you being in tune with your body is so inspiring.
This is such relatable content - thank you for being vulnerable with us
i cried multiple times throughout the video because i relate SO MUCH. this video was so inspiring, thank you for being vulnerable and honest :)
You're such a necessary person, Linda! I watched this video just in the very best moment, the moment I'm needing the most. Thank you so much for sharing your story and your journey with us. I'm sorry it turned into a burden as well, you don't deserve it at all! Hope you're feeling more like yourself lately ❤
That whole intro just brought tears to my eyes. I have never related so hard. It’s a constant battle that I deal with. Thank you for this video it really spoke to me
Love your videos sooo much, you’re literally my comfort person and help me so much to get better and work out a healthier approach to food and fitness 💕✨
I love that you’re taking charge and trying to understand your body. I’ve dealt with body dysphoria while I was depressed and recovering with therapy medicine and your video and the video of other TH-camrs has helped me love my body and eat for me. Thank you❤️
shes been doing this forever 😂 always sad abt her self and her body but always fails cause shes too focused on numbers and not her feeling good eating.
@@jesustorres6742 it's never the case where u wake up one day and suddenly feel good abt your body forever. Its not like u decide to go on a self care/ health journey and become confident abt your body and love ur body forever. The battle between loving or hating ur body goes on forever. Somedays you feel good somedays you dont. You learn some lessons and move but then again new problems arise. Its life.
Also Linda (from the vids that I watched of her ie. A lot of them) she doesnt judge her body by numbers. She promotes how u should love ur body no matter what and eat, exercise and have fun
@@jesustorres6742 what do you mean by "always fail". Umm hello. Loving ur body and not falling back into unhealthy habits is hard. It's the battle that we keep on fighting forever. Maybe u wake up one day and change ur thoughts bar or body forever. Goof for u then. You cant hate just because she fails and is sad abt her body forever. That's what EVERYONE does
I just found your video and I am going to watch it over and over and over again! The way you changed your life is how’s supposed to be. You shared your personal weaknesses and strengths and that’s amazing! Thank you!!!
By far my favorite influencer. This video gave me chills. Thank you for this. You are absolutely amazing 🤍
Good job! Most of us can't afford the lifestyle you have, but we'll continue to work hard. Keep going girlsss ❤️😊
watching your videos calm myself when I feel guilty about eating junks and my body so thank you, Linda, for empowering and embracing your thoughts with us
I am so proud of you, proud of me, and of everybody who is doing their best. One day at a time, for life!
This video shows such a healthy relationship with food! It's not the perfect, wellness-bowl-obsessed, "that girl" vibe with green juices and salads and perfection. Instead, it's variety, genuine enjoyment, balance, and enjoying delicious snacks along with colourful meals. Props to you!!
i really don't know how you do it, but you always post a new video just when i need it the most.
linda, you are just such a great inspiration and you are like a big sister to me that i never had.
you have been with me through my eating disorder for over a year and i am so incredibly lucky to have you!
love you and i'm so thankful
It's cuz we ALWAYS need a Linda Sun video 🥰
Honestly, this video came at the right time for me. I am so happy seeing this video and I took so many notes. Asked my self question about the same things you asked yourself and It made me realize why I felt unhappy lately. Truly loved this video. One take away for me is something i stopped doing a long time ago "Intentionally do happy things", I got lost in just doing things and stopped making time for the things that truly made me happy. Thank you for reminding me that I deserve to find things that make me happy.
Wow...just WOW! This video is so beautiful, visually and emotionally. The message is so accepting, inspiring, and kind. This was NOT an easy video to make on so many levels and I am so proud of you. This is the first video of yours I've ever seen and I'm definitely a fan. I wish I had heard a message like this when I was an adolescent. You are helping so many 💖
omg the editing and the ending of this video ..the lessons ..everything is chef's kiss
Putting it down here first in case it becomes reality:
I have been a long time subscriber & one of the things I love the most about your videos are your scripts!
They’re actually so inspiring & I believe you could be able to write a whole book! It would definitely change people's lives as much as your videos do!
Am so grateful for you sharing your story with us.
Lots of love from a German subscriber! ;)
Loved the editing. I can totally relate to everything said. I too fell into a toxic cycle and began to eat just to eat and gained 30 lbs in 6 months. I am now trying to lose weight and stay consistent on my healthy eating lifestyle. Thanks for sharing. Very motivational and you inspired me to workout tonight !
I haven’t watched one of your videos in a while and now I’m reminded of why I love them so much! I feel like I changed a lot since I last watched and it’s cool to see that you are too! I hope you continue on your mental and physical health journey😊
