I'm sitting here at 2:34 a.m, trying to drink enough beer that I'll feel numb enough to be able to sleep. I'm an alcoholic. I clicked on this video for some kind of amusement I guess, but what happened was I kept looking at my beer as you were talking, and it became clearer by the second that what I've been doing for the last 3 years is nothing but self loathing. I poured out my beer just before typing this sentence. I'm not naive enough to think that this is the last time that I'll drink but I want you to know that you at the very least prevented it for one night. I checked my phone the other day on my break at work, I wanted to google something. I saw that the last thing I Googled was "How to kill myself without feeling pain". I have no memory of this search. I strongly believe that watching this video is the turning point in my life. Thank you.
these perils of wisdom really spoke to me: -realizing how much joy is available to you unrelated to your weight. -i created the life i thought i couldn't have until i was thin enough. -people will never treat you better than you treat yourself. -no will ever love you more than you can love yourself. -have a deep, unwavering respect for yourself. -self love is more potent and sustaining than other external love you will experience. -THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN'T DO! the message in this video and a similar one by high carb hannah are what finally pushed me over to commit to a plant based diet 100% and most importantly, shifted my twisted way of thinking. It's been crucial to drill these kinds of motivating and inspiring words into my consciousness. thanks for delivering the heartfelt REALNESS per usual xx
I grew up being straight up told i would only be lovable and worthy if i lost weight.To the point my mum put me on slimming pills at 13. Of course, i got fatter and fatter. Now the narrative is "Well, we told you so!" But i kept noticing women who are way bigger than me with awesome lives and loving partners...so i think you're right. Not that cruelty and prejudice don't exist and i don't know if i am comforted by the fact that if you are vulnerable and have low self worth you tend to attract bad treatment. But you do! You have to love yourself unconditionally and set strong boundaries, for sure. I tend to lose myself in interactions with others so that is proving a challenge for me. Thanks, Lilly, for your amazing, genuine videos.
This is so important. I wish I had seen this video earlier, but I had to learn everything you just said "the hard way". I went on a low calorie diet, did a lot of cardio, lost weight, yet I wasn't happy. Nothing had changed. I was never satisfied with my results and I kept going until my body couldn't handle it anymore: I took a break and regained every single kg I had lost. Every single one. And I wasn't overeating. I hated myself more than I ever had. But this was all necessary for me to truly find myself, at the very bottom of this dark spiral I was in. I found love and strength within me. Nobody else could "save" me from my dark thoughts and sadness: I had to do it. And when I started loving myself, doing things that were good for my body, my body started to change. But more importantly, I had changed. I was a new person. I am a new person. And I am so happy to be doing my best to reduce animal suffering as well. I have gone fully vegan only fairly recently, I already feel amazing but I am scared: scared of nutritional deficiencies, scared I won't be able to stay vegan long term, scared of people's reaction, etc. But I know this is all silly, irrational bullshit. I know that a well-planned vegan diet can be very healthy - and this is not an opinion, it is a fact! I know that this is an important step to a more ethical, sustainable, happy life. So thank you. I may not agree with everything you say, I may not agree with your harsh words sometimes, but I truly appreciate your honesty. Thank you for being real, raw and honest and putting your experience out there.
This really spoke to me. Since my early teen years I decided i wasn't deserving of love/happiness BECAUSE of external negative factors in my life that i couldn't control, i just assumed that was what i deserved and thus, punished myself physically and emotionally for nearly 6 years. This video was really freeing, not depending on others to dictate YOUR self worth is so so important. I began taking baby steps towards this in 2016 by seeing a therapist and since doing this i have become drastically healthier, i no longer drink alcohol on a daily basis and am slowly transitioning from a vegetarian for 7 years to vegan. I hope to be an example that everything said in this video is true ( it does take time and work!), but in the end it is SO worthwhile to love yourself. Thank you so much for this series!
lily, this made me cry. im one year recovered from anorexia and really struggling with my body image, which i now realise its because im having a tough time with uni, work, friends, family and my relationship. i convinced myself towards a full blown relapse the other day but then i watched this video and i really think this will save me. thankyou. so much.
+Giacinta Micallef No one ting will save you, Giacinta, but stuff like videos and other support can help you find your own strength and save yourself. It's one day at a time, sometimes we take several steps backward before we're truly ready to move forward. Be kind and patient
I just wanted to say thank you! Thank you so much for saying this! Seriously. It's absolutely critical that people hear this message, and not just hear it, but internalize it. It's hard to be as open and honest as you are about shitty life situations, but I want you to know that it's soooo appreciated. I don't want to get into my own personal stuff right now, but I wanted to make sure I told you how much you and your channel are appreciated. I relate so much to what you say that it sometimes actually makes me tear up (but in a good way). I guarantee you that I'm not the only one out there. Thank you! Keep doing what you're doing!
+Legit Nutrition Hawaii I agree, I listen to you at times and its just soo fing inspirational! I'm flippin 45 years old and doing well in life but man some of the things you say in such clarity hits home...it makes me happy to have found you and enjoy your channel a whole big bunches, keep up the good work, I know a lot of people are glad to hear what you say and you definitely paid it forward from when you had someone's video help you. Its your generosity and your willingness to be open with others that people cherish and respect. As I write this I am thinking that you may possibly have helped others much more than I have, and I'm in the profession. I don't find that I'm a little jealous of that but I do recognize the talent that I wish I had in you. Hope that makes sense but its really late and wanted to add my 2 cents :) :)
After years of hearing people talk about how we should deal with the psychological issues before (or during) weight loss and not understanding exactly what they were talking about, I finally GET it--thanks to your explanation in the video. A light bulb literally clicked on in my head. Thank you for freely giving your opinion about this without trying to make a buck off it.
I am at that point where I'm learning to finally love myself, even at my highest weight. after 31 years of pretty much being obsessed with my weight and body image. Its been a long road but your videos give me life and inspiration to work toward finding true happiness. Thank you!
AMEN sister. We all need reminders to re-shift our focus from ego to love. Thank you for being a bright and shining reminder for anyone who is listening.
I needed to watch this today. It's crazy I never realized most self love videos are from people who haven't found a healthy path yet- not judging them at all and glad they are spreading the message too but also glad that someone who has found their way back on track is spreading the self love message. xo
I endorse this message 1000% I would also like to add that we should be prepared to fight those who are closest to us every step of the way. It had not occured to me until I started gaining some self-appreciation how little the people around me expected of me or actually wanted for me. They always wanted me to be more self-confident, but I soon discovered that there was a hard cap to their well-wishes beyond which I was expected to get off my high horse. Unfortunately for them, I am my father's son.
I'm another person who found you via Freelee (another thing to add to the long list of reasons why I love Freelee) and just wanted to thank you for your passion and eloquence. You're spot on about self acceptance being the starting point of improving your life not the end goal. Thank you. xxx
OMG, im very overweight and i just bought my flights to hawaii (maui and big island) last week for this summer, bc i dont want to put it off and wait for the perfect time perfect body. This video reassures that i made the right decision taking action. Hopefully i'll have a great time and live a new adventure. Thank you!
This amazing, beautiful, absolutly true woman right there saved my life. I can not thank the universe enough for letting me find you channel, Lily! Thank you so much for your honesty, your inspiration and just being yourself. I can't emphazise how much you spoke to me with your massages and helped me. Thank you so much!
I'm beyond elated to believe I could have been a part of you making whatever changes you had to make or having whatever realizations were necessary to save your own life
I've been suffered from eating disorder for 2 years now. I've got to aware of it not long time ago and im trying to eat healthy foods, not restrict calories anymore and growing to love myself more. I'm still so sesitive abt other comment about my looks but im getting better thanks to you. You're such a amazing and inspiration person. The society in Viet Nam where im living now is so obsessed abt skinny, i can't find anyone to understand my mental disease. That's why im really appreciate what you're doing now!!!
In my experience with this subject becoming leaner gave me confidence but only after I learned to accept my body as it was and start taking care of it with a vegan diet and the same amount of time at the gym . After I accepted it I learned to love it and from the long list of things i had wanted to completely change about myself I am now happy with my form and proud of my body's natural shape that had been hiding Under my excess fat. I love my body because it is unique, it is strong, and it is mine.
I'm so glad freelee brought me here. I've been fucking binge watching all of your videos. I'm even starting to talk like you and use your hand gestures xD Love you
I wish I could make this video mandatory viewing material for all high school and college students. Everything you said is so poignant and true, thank you Lily. Even though I don't know you and we may never meet I love you
Lily you are an amazing inspiration and to everyone listens to your channel! I only wish I had the wisdom you do at your age. You are sweet soul and you speak the truth ...if we can’t love ourselves who can ever love us. On that note...love you lots keep up the Great work♥️
I am soooo late to this party, but better late than never I always say. As I'm in the middle of binge-watching this series, I just had to take a moment and let you know what a wonderful service you are doing, and how happy it makes me to see someone putting out this message. I appreciate your research, your heart, and the consistency that you provide. Thank you for this.
For the past week or so I've been binge watching all your videos, and I'm so glad that I found your channel. You're the reason I want to pursue longterm health over "fast weight loss results". So, thank you so so much.
These are my thoughts, and they've always been. I'm trying to tell myself that it won't change much and I'm trying to love myself as I am right now. Thank you.
This has to be one of your most powerful messages yet! I love your videos and this one inspired me so much. I really needed to hear this message tonight. I have personally come from such a painful past and my healing and accepting of self has been the biggest hurdle that I am still yet to come to peace with. Thank you again for your genuineness, your whacky quirky humor and being you. The world needs more people like you :-)
I love your videos- by far my favorite vegan TH-camr. The honesty and love you bring to these videos is almost palpable. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ......why am I just waiting for the someone (mailman or crazy lady down the hall) to just shove something through the slot at any given moment? Just waiting for the day!
Lily, ever since I found your channel you've become an incredibly huge influence in my life. thank you for being you and discussing such important topics in your videos that are making this world a better place!
I can't describe how amazing this series of yours has been and continues to be. so much valuable information. I hope even after it is done you continue to upload regularly - I need more of this wisdom in my life lady!
I came from Freelee's channel and I love your videos! This is exactly what I needed to hear! I'm going to Vegas/California next month and I've been feeling so down cause I've gained weight and been thinking that I won't look good and beautiful but you just opened my eyes and made me see things from a different perspective! Thank you!!
I weigh (almost) as much as you did at your lowest (118.5 lbs). I starved myself just like you did and nothing in my life changed either. I want to take your advice and change my life, too:)
This was honestly so beautiful! And so true! I've been at my 'goal weight' before and I was miserable in every other aspect of my life. It's not the most important thing, by far!
I've watched several Of your videos since last week and I really enjoy your honest weight loss series. You cut through the BS and say what most of us are thinking whilst going through the thick of it. I like both the raw truth and the positive outlook you offer. Thank you for sharing your journey! I'm still in the noncommittal phase. I know what to do, have books on it, watch and follow many TH-camrs and even cook so many vegan meals. People even come to me for vegan recipe ideas and advice yet I still haven't committed all the way. I'm stuck on eggs, cheese and the fat processed food. I feel Like I watch all these people go vegan, including my distant family members, and I believe it's true just not for me. I don't know, I guess I still feel like imma miss out. I say imma go 100% then the night before binge! I know that's not the way and I'm not gonna be successful. I'm hoping joining a vegan Meetup will help.
You're right. In my case, I'm looking for self acceptance. I have people who love me just the way I am. But I don't really love myself or think I'm worthy. Deep down in my unconscious I still believe I'm not worthy for ME if I don't have that body. Because I also feel I'm not smart enough or capable enough for anything, so at least I want to look nice. And I'm not saying this out of self pity, but as recognizing the truth. I'm on my journey to recover from my eating disorder and to love myself again. Eating healthy has helped me a lot with this: you are what you eat.
Wow! This video made me cry. In a good way. You are so honest and brave. Thankyou so much for sharing this important message with us in your beatiful way!
Thank you for making videos and please never stop speaking your mind to the world. Your videos helped motivate me to go vegan and will continue to motivate me through this journey. Your powerful message has impacted my life in such a huge way and I know teenage girls, like me, need to hear it.
exactly!!! sometimes the problem is inside us, in the mind and soul....maybe the bad behaviour of others influences us but if we are ok with us then noone fan harm u👌😘

I'm really loving your videos
Yes! She's the BEST!

oh God, it's the second video of yours I've watched and it's the second time I cried. You're really amazing
It's kinda fun being one of the few people who is in shape. I think in 50 years, fit people will be almost unheard of.
I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pls never stop making videos.
Actually teared up at the "respect yourself" part. So true

I cried during this video. I really needed to hear this as I've been feeling like this for a while. Thank you.
Here's 11 minutes of straight truth. Lily, you give voice to the thoughts we all have in our head. I absolutely love this!
Thank you.

You are by far the best vegan youtuber. Vegan love 💜
now this is a true body positivity! girl, you are amazing!
Thank you so much!❤ I'm still recovering but veganism already saved me from self destroying thoughts.

I can't describe how amazing this series of yours has been and continues to be. so much valuable information. I hope even after it is done you continue to upload regularly - I need more of this wisdom in my life lady!
+R Münster Oh yeah I'll keep going... I'm working toward phasing out my other job so I can do this full time - but it's proving to be a slow process!
One of the best videos on TH-cam! Thank you!
I loved this! I loved your take on body acceptance! Accept yourself, love yourself, but make your health important!!
I came from Freelee's channel and I love your videos! This is exactly what I needed to hear! I'm going to Vegas/California next month and I've been feeling so down cause I've gained weight and been thinking that I won't look good and beautiful but you just opened my eyes and made me see things from a different perspective!

I weigh (almost) as much as you did at your lowest (118.5 lbs). I starved myself just like you did and nothing in my life changed either. I want to take your advice and change my life, too:)
You hit the nail on the head! So many do not talk about this.Thank you for addressing this issue. I really love your channel!!
gosh... crying like a baby right now... i was really needing this. Thank you so much
This was honestly so beautiful! And so true! I've been at my 'goal weight' before and I was miserable in every other aspect of my life. It's not the most important thing, by far!
This is video is so amazing!!! Thank you so much!!!!
I am going to put this in my mental health folder and watch it every time I doubt myself. Awesome video, awesome message.
I've watched several
Of your videos since last week and I really enjoy your honest weight loss series. You cut through the BS and say what most of us are thinking whilst going through the thick of it. I like both the raw truth and the positive outlook you offer. Thank you for sharing your journey!
I'm still in the noncommittal phase. I know what to do, have books on it, watch and follow many TH-camrs and even cook so many vegan meals. People even come to me for vegan recipe ideas and advice yet I still haven't committed all the way.
I'm stuck on eggs, cheese and the fat processed food. I feel
Like I watch all these people go vegan, including my distant family members, and I believe it's true just not for me. I don't know, I guess I still feel like imma miss out. I say imma go 100% then the night before binge! I know that's not the way and I'm not gonna be successful. I'm hoping joining a vegan Meetup will help.
Funny how I thought I would be finally happy by being skinny, but that time was the worst of my life 😶 this is such a great video!!!
You are the coolest lady on this planet. Thanks for keeping it real
You are the best! Keep up the work. You do straight talk without being mean, and you don't sugar coat anything. Telling people what they want to hear.
You're my favorite person to watch on TH-cam!! Can't wait until you're in the 100,000's.
I've watched this video about 10 times. Such a beautiful message.
You're right. In my case, I'm looking for self acceptance. I have people who love me just the way I am. But I don't really love myself or think I'm worthy. Deep down in my unconscious I still believe I'm not worthy for ME if I don't have that body. Because I also feel I'm not smart enough or capable enough for anything, so at least I want to look nice. And I'm not saying this out of self pity, but as recognizing the truth. I'm on my journey to recover from my eating disorder and to love myself again. Eating healthy has helped me a lot with this: you are what you eat.
I feel the exact same way
