- My name is Tammy. I struggle with too many mental issues, lol, but don't we all? On this channel I document most of my struggles. TH-cam helps me to be able to vent and talk about what's going on and how I feel. I consider my channel to be a mental health recovery channel. I'm also trying to lose weight in the process. Come along and let's strive to be the best versions of ourselves!
I'm not promoting any kind of (eating) disorder, I'm just documenting my life and my struggles.
I'm very hapy to have you Little Lemons accompany me. Thank you SO much for watching my video!

I enjoy your vlogs so much. I marvel at your talent....TH-camr, singer, crafter, cat mom, tax preparer (you're so brave, I could never), & cook...that pizza looked amazing! I love your positivity and confidence....keep going!
Right. There’s nothing she can’t do. It’s very cool. I love the videos
Fell for it 😂 I was so confused
Me toooo😂😂😂😂
I looked at my router' to see if it's red!😅
😂🤣 I’m a fool who fell! Adorable kitties and adorable Tammy ❤️✌🏻🐱🍋
Tammy, I just want to say that I am so proud of you. My story and struggles are very similar to yours and it helps me to not feel so alone. You are such a beautiful person with such a beautiful, kind heart and I hope you know that you are an inspiration for so many people. You deserve nothing but peace and joy❤️ 🫂
Ps. I love seeing all of your sweet kitties🥹 they are so precious and you’re an amazing cat mom!🐈
Good to see you ! I make my pizza dough out of Greek yogurt and self rising flour. You can google two ingredient dough. Gives you more protein. Today I am 13 days sugar free and my cravings are getting less and less. I really enjoy your videos! Have a lovely weekend!❤
If you were used to having 3 big meals and no snacking in between, then advising you to snack in between is actually NOT a good advice from your dietitian. With NO snacking in beteen meals, your body has the chance to lower your insulin levels, which is good. With snacking in between, you keep your insulin levels elevated. For the body, it's good to have food-breaks and periods of not eating (so the body can regulate it's insulin levels)
I am hoping Tammy will realize that she was on the right track to eat no more than three times a day... Our bodies do need balance between eating and not eating just as we do sleeping and not sleeping.
@@AzaleaBee right? Like, I understand how for some people, that might be a good advice (if someone is constantly snacking, then reducing the snacking to a certain amount could be good). But in Tammys case I feel like this was unnecessary and sort of a "downgrade" :(
@@anna.m8 I agree. Tammy was on her way to leaving regular daily snacking behind her.
From what she says, and more important how she says it, it sounds as if she is happy for this professional advice. Looking at what she eats it's not 3 meals and 3 snacks.. it is closer to 6 meals a day now. But something about how she explained it tells me there is a part of her that knows this is not good advice for her.
A nutritionists once told my husband to eat 6 times a day to control his type 2 diabetes. He had already worked toward eating only 3 times (whole foods) out of every 24 and was improving. We were old enough to recognize her bad advice and not give up the reins. In the end, we are our first and most important health care personnel.
Omg je grap is echt geniaal 😂 ik kijk dit op 3 april, maar moest toch even een paar keer mijn WiFi checken om te kijken of die nog verbonden was. Al vond ik het wel raar dat het een zwart scherm was dat bleef laden, maar er toch volop ingetrapt 🙈
That's great you're waking, maybe light weight lifting next?
Ankle weights are great!!!
Hi Tammy! Your approach to food, calories and exercise make perfect sense to me. That's how I approach weight loss too.
Think of it as your body is a bank ...you're either burning calories and withdrawing money, and losing weight, or you're making deposits and gaining weight, or you're withdrawing money and making the same amount of deposits and maintaining your weight.
Also, one technique that helps me when I want to binge is I tell myself I'll put it on hold for 24 hours and I'll check back in then. Then I set my alarm for 24 hours from now....then when the 24 hour alarm goes off, I ask myself if I still want to binge. Usually my answer is NO! But occasionally, if the answer is yes, I only binge on a few smaller items and not all the normal amounts of binge items. Hope this helps!
Keep up the great work! Our tax day here in the U.S. is April 15, so I can relate! Kudos to you for making money on your channel and doing your own taxes! Woohoo! 😊
The april fools thing got me. I was watching on my phone that was propped up on my table. I seen it lagging a couple of times and was like "oh come on". And the third time was like "wtf?!" and picked up my phone to see what was happening. You definitely got me.
I lost weight when I was busy moving. And with moving more means more calorie intake. You are aware and balanced, don't let anything deter you.
Your hair suits you so much 💕 love to you and the kitties!!
Hey Tammy!
When I lost my weight, I started wearing a fitbit and tracked my period. I had the same pattern as you, so when a bingethought started coming, I told myself "Okay, it is now time for me to listen to my body and eat at maintenance." I would do that for a week. I'm not saying that will work for you, but maybe it can serve as an inspiration 🤗.
Hope you're having a good day! 💜
Interesting.
Im so happy to see an upload today. My dog passed last April and today would have been his birthday. Every little thing reminded me of him. Your video brought me joy, especially the pizza (i loooooove Pizza!). Lots of love! Keep up the great work :)
Whoa, im in the same boat! My dog of 22 years also passed last April, just a day after my birthday, so I completely understand you. It weirdly comforted me to see your comment, just wanted to let you know
That must be very hard 😥 You missing him is a beautiful reminder of how much you two meant to each other. Stay strong! ❤️
Ahw, I'm sorry. I can imagine that every little thing reminded you of him. Is he the dog in your profile picture? I'm glad that my video was able to offer some distraction! ❤️ Stay strong! 🐾
The pizza looked really nice. Think the word you were looking for may have been "proof" or "proving", as in letting the dough rise.
You got me Tammy....thought my internet had gone off 😂 Sorry but I had to laugh at the cats opening the microwave etc.
I was so confused 😂😂😂 good one Tammy
You looks so much healthier. Your skin looks flawless and you're glowing! Also, that hair color really makes your blue eyes pop
I fell for it; my internet has been doing that all day so I was cussing it out 😂
I replayed the April's fool joke like three times before realizing I'm just dumb lol have a lovely day, Tammy!
Also I really like how you changed the color of your hair. It looks great. I can also tell you're losing weight. You look great as well.
bro i completely fell for ur prank. god damn it. I was like, getting ready to refresh the page hahah
Welcome to April. Living with 3 cats and a dog and if they ever grow thumbs I am done for. I understand all about those surprises they leave for us. Always good to have you stop by Tammy. You are doing great on your journey.
My cats used to be feral and hate each other won't go near each other and can be pretty nasty but I had to rescue them, and they are very loving towards people 🧡
@Jasperella Wolfsbane 🧹🌜 all my pets are rescues (that is my favorite breed). They found us and I know we are so glad they did.
@@judithchurchwell9972 🧡
I really love your channel. Your very transparent and I appreciate it. Hope you have a great weekend.
I fell for it. I thought I would go through April 1st. unbeaten. 🤦🏻♀️ You got me 😂😂😂😂
It's April 2nd where I am lol
Totally fell for it!! I was doing something else while it happened and I'm like an I going crazy what is going on with my phone! Hahaha love your humor Tammy!! I still am straight trippin that your cats can open basically anything with a door besides your fridge! Watch out they may team up and learn how to do that! Haha
maybe you’re already aware of this? there is a strong correlation between ASD & PMDD in menstruating people. is it a possibility your strong propensity to binge is the primary way in which you’ve previously coped w/ intense hormonal fluctuations?
Good one!! 😂
I want to eat everything when it's that time too. Hardest to control my cravings.
And all of your LemFam Love You🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋🍋
I can't control my eating the week before my period either.
Tammy you look really nice, your hair color is pretty..
Your title finally helped me email my accountant 🙈 thank you! Have a happy day 🫶
I am subscribed to Tammy and watch all of her videos, but to all of her “supporters” I want to say the following - because of your “support” and encouragement how great she’s doing, for the past less than two years she’s gained 60 pounds (for reference, check her videos from May 2021). Think about that next time you tell her how great she’s doing with her diet and whether this is the behaviors you want to encourage in yourself and others.
Losing weight isn’t easy, but lying to yourself makes it 100 times harder. Love yourself enough to tell yourself the harsh truth and take responsibility of your physical health - the mental will follow.
So what’s the solution? Criticising her and making her feel bad? You’re confusing support with condoning. I don’t know about you, but when a stranger criticises me, my gut reaction is to dig my heels in. I think most of us are that way, particularly when it comes to vulnerable topics like our physical appearance. I’m not saying you’re wrong per se - some of her behaviours are problematic - but I don’t think being mean or critical helps. I binge eat as well; I just don’t share it because I’m ashamed.
But she's lost 60 lbs recently, not like she's gaining
In regards to Tammy I think the solution is telling her what exactly she’s doing wrong and providing advise on what she needs to do. Tammy is smart, but she overestimates her knowledge on the topic of nutrition and weight loss because of which she falls victims for incorrect data (for example, her Fitbit telling her she burned 500 calories, so now she can eat 500 calories more). Knowledge is power, and while I see some progress in her knowledge on the topic (I’ve been going through her old videos in chronological order), she is still far from doing the right things to achieve weight loss. Another thing I noticed, not only in her but in a lot of younger people altogether, is that she is starting to use her mental health as an excuse (similarly to other “weight loss” channels who gain and not lose), but if you want to be healthy there has to be a point where “I wanted to binge and couldn’t stop it” can no longer serve as an excuse. All of this is coming from a person who was morbidly obese, lost and maintained a 120 lbs loss for years now and is now slimming down even further through body recomposition - and let me tell you, I am losing more than Tammy in a month, while being almost 3 times smaller than her. Making her or anyone else feel bad is nothing I ever want to do, but even less than that would I want to lie to somebody and allow them to get themselves in a worse position just for the sake of being “nice” :)
@@ByeByeBelly in a video called Binge and face reveal she starts with a weigh-in dated May 5th 2021 and her weight is 330.9 lbs. in one of her last videos called weigh in and autism something she weighs in at 391.3 lbs. If you’re telling me that she has gained 120 lbs and lost 60 lbs in the span of about 23 months and that’s a behavior you want to encourage - fine with me, to each their own. I personally think about all of the negative side effects this has on her, in addition to the obviously problematic behavior (adding even further feelings of failure and going further into self-sabotage). If you watch her videos in chronological order you’ll see it clearly - the trend is downwards, not towards improvement.
Yep exactly what I’ve been thinking. I have theories about this but I think weight loss becomes 100x harder when your monetized YT channel revolves around your BED. You’re going to have a lot of fans that relate to your struggle so they’re going to encourage you always, but maybe not actually want you to get better as you validate their own mistakes and make them feel better about their own lives. Then add the attention/sympathy you get from being fat and suddenly a lot of things are actually working against your weight loss making it much much harder. And as a result, we get… Gorl. And the fan base here is particularly toxically positive and enabling, so Tammy is working against a lot more than just herself by having this channel
You need a cat cam to see what those babies are doing when you are gone or sleeping lol lol
I thought my Internet was lagging 😂 You got me.
Idk I think having only one sink would be a problem for me. I use the second side to rinse my dishes and where they can sit to dry if I choose that way it’s not a huge pile on the counter which I don’t have much counter space either 🤔🤷♀️.
HI , TAMMY YOU NEED TO ADD SUGAR , THATS WHAT MAKES THE DOUGH RISE !!!(BAKERSFIELD GIRL CLAUDIA )
Lol. You got me! Checked WiFi too
Good Luck keeping the kitties out of that soil🐾🌸♥️
Another great video 🤩 and the pizza looked so delicious!
I'm not alone! We have one cat who has learned to unscrew the top from their food jar so that must be hidden in a closed room when we leave now. They know how to open the cabinates and kitchen drawers so I have to child proof my home for the cats. They really are like toddlers. And I think one of them understands Dutch because he now goes to the top of my closet when he is angry lately and just glairs at me.
Your period will mess with you. The food cravings, gaining weight, being tiered and not wanting to do nothing. But knowing what it is causing these things may help some.
You're doing great and deserve to be proud of yourself.
Love the hair!
Thank you Sugar, I so enjoy your channel.. I wish I could hear your beautiful voice more..
Omg i just posted on instagram that its the first year I’m not pranked… ooops hahahaha! I totally believed that and thought that TH-cam had changed what the loading sign looks like XD. Was wondering what was wrong with my internet connection 😂 love you Tammy!
Tammy, I think you have to preheat the oven and the pan wich you will use for the pizza. Then transfer the pizza to the pan when is hot. That's because helps with the crust!
Haha, the april fools joke did get me. The pizza looked great 😄 Pray for my newly planted tomatoes, I have cats too.
I fell for your prank! 😂 Also, when are you going to dye your eyebrows? I remember you mentioning that. Your light brows are so noticeable now with your dark hair.
Yes I fell for it!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yas! I totally enjoy my food much better not all mixed together, but mixed at my own discretion.
You speak like a robot. It’s very funny to listen to . I love watching your videos
you had a glow up with this hair color btw :)
Happy April Fools! 😂
The pizza looked amazing 😻
PS, I miss your natural beautiful blonde hair
I miss your vlog videos. Come back 😢
"How did they do that?" My money's on Pistache! 😆
Why do you think wait until your kitchen is in a state before you clean it though? You’re ONE person living in that flat. Shouldn’t be hard to just clean up as you go along after yourself.
Can't clean the kitchen drunk in bed.
Good for you Tammy. You are doing such an amazing job. You look fantastic. Your pizza looked absolutely delicious!! My son and I love watching you and your cooking. 😊❤
Your "snack" should be your meal if you really want to lose weight as it's a big snack.
I hate doing taxes. I do it myself every year and every year it feels like I might be doing it wrong but I can't figure out how else I'm supposed to fill in the boxes. The 'explanation texts' never explain anything, they just make things even more confusing. Good luck!
Hi Tammy. Here from Llona's channel, really appreciate the transparency, struggling with reaching my goals as well. Best of luck.
The cottage cheese 😂
Ps: Get you some gardener gloves 😉
One of my favorite things about you and your channel is your quest for knowledge. You are also a doer building all your new furniture etc
I noticed my eating style change as I became more conscious and aware (or mindful) while I eat! X same with drinking beer for me personally ❤ I adore you! 🍋
I was so mad at my internet 😂 you're hilarious 😅
If I’m having mashed potatoes, everything he’s mixed together😋
Yes I did fall for it hahaha its because i usually have slow internet haha
I also love gardening, I planted a ton of tomatoes this year! They’re called Oregon cherry tomatoes
Tammy, thanks for the wonderful video!! I also binge during my PMS like crazy, so for the past 6 months or so, I've just decided to .... not have it. I'm on the pill, and I just don't skip a week of taking them, therefore I don't get my period. It's totally safe and fine to do so btw, I have clarified it with an obgyn :D
Also, your cats are little geniuses :D
And it works? So you just continue taking the pill without breaks so you don't get your period and don't go through the whole rollercoaster cycle? Because if that works, that could be a lifesaver! At the moment I'm not on the pill. I stopped to see if it makes any difference. So far, nope. Still the same! I'll see my doctor next week. I'll also ask him about it. Thanks! ❤️
@@TammyLemon. yep, my hormone levels stay stable and there's no cycle related overeating or PMS :'). I work at an orphanage and we give teens with bad PMS and mood disorder issues the pill so they don't go into crazy mode 😂
You make me wanna grow my own plants now!! Same with the pizza it looks so good im gonna have to come back to this video in the future and recreate it! :0
😂 funny joke i didnt but bc i read the comments 😅
hehe you totally have fooled me !!
Fell for it, thought i was in a room with bad internet
six of crows is sooooooooo goooood
Your hair is looking so good!
Tea! ☕ I use tea the same way, as a warm sweet no-calorie filler in-between meals or in the evening instead of snacking.
I enjoy watching the cat introduction part of your videos. Every time : )
I fall for it tooo 😂😂
you have a ghost! 😆
🤚🏼I fell for it 😹
I fell for it…… I was getting pissed off with my “shit WiFi” lol Happy Eater TamTam. Lots of love x
Fooled me!! Thought my computer was crashing, got worried 😅😅
OMGossh you got me!! 🤣 I was like "I hate this stupid tv" (I was watching you on my tv) 😂
I love nail art videos! I suggest Emily Susanah I enjoy her nail videos!
You’re such a cool person ❤
Y’all I’m sitting in my car like 🤨 maybe it’s the wind….. dang weather

I work as a bartender part time for my second job & boy oh boy do taxes fxck me over but luckily sli take away enough from my first job it covers it but holy cow taxes suck in the USA lol
That pizza! Yum!! We put mozzarella cheese on it in the US...what is typical there?
Hmm? That’s interesting that the binge thoughts go along with your period. 🤔. Maybe it’s just the hormonal changes that are causing it. Those thoughts. Whatever. There might be something you can do about that if it’s hormonal 🤷♀️. Idk.
Howd they open the oven without dumping the food scale lol lil buggers
April fool’s prank was so cute ☺️ fell for it 🤣😆 0:44
