Really admire your non restrictive mindset to your health goals it's something I wished I did earlier in my health journey and not being so hard on myself ✨✨
Just wanted to pop in and say that these vlogs are the highlight of my week and I really love this really long video format great to watch whilst doing chores. Thanks for all your hard work Chan its really a support for ppl. Love from England xx
the health chats really do feel like the big sister i never had!!! thank you for being so real about your journey while also being respectful of everyone elses!!!
Girl those highlights look SO good!!
ty!!
The hair is hairing in this video!
I don’t have PCOS, but I do have Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis and hypothyroidism, and I also think I’m in perimenopause. I think a huge reason why doctors don’t know a lot about these and why they’re not super helpful is because they (largely) affect women. I’ve had to do so much research on my own and really advocate for myself because I feel like I’m constantly begging my doctors to give me any kind of meaningful help. I love learning about PCOS through your journey! I hope you figure out what works well for you!
AN HOUR+ VLOG YEEAASSS
A new feature length film from Chan? I'm sat.
the WIP shirt is an absolute need
We just got life proof dusk cherry. It looks so nice! Looks similar to what you are liking!
Interior designer here, flooring choice…my recommendation is to go with the one you are leaning towards. (Not the one seen in the influencers video). It’s gorgeous and that perfect not too cool/not too warm shade ❤
Chandler!! Thank you so so much for all the PCOS info... you're so right about drs, the first thing they threw at me was birth control even though I've had bad side effects in the past. The new diagnoses is hard I'm not going to lie, it feels like my body hates me sometimes, though I know that's not true. Your progress is definitely a bright spot of hope.
I recently saw a great new video, which will become a series from Syd bookworm. She picks one book herself, one book picked by subscribers, one by patreons. And creates brackets out of winners, so in the end she will have one winner. Each 3 books have a separate vlog. I just thought that i would love to see such vlogs from you. Love your opinions and comparisons. Loved the trope comparison series.
its hard to go through shit and not eat some french fries IS SO REAL 😭
When you remodel anything in your house, the entire house turns into a crazy jumble. When we put in new flooring everything had to be moved, but it’s also a great opportunity to rearrange and purge. Hope the bathroom turns out the way you want .
i loved this vlog! and you and Haden are just the bestest!
I’d love the monthly goals videos, personally! I recently thought about incorporating monthly overviews in my life too, to have a better idea of the things I’ve been accomplishing and the ones I haven’t.
I also want to thank you for the morning walk motivation, I definitely needed it!
these are my favorite to watch!!!
“That’s stupid! I love you so much but you’re dumb” 🤣 relatable
The new merch is so cute!
yes please goals and fitness love that stuff
I agree with the floor sample choice - I think the other one will look a bit too light, especially with how your paint/decor/furniture etc. tends to lean very light I would feel like the floor would just blend right into everything and not provide much contrast.
Love the work in progress shirt
You mentioned something not working that well for KP and I wanted to tell you that the ordinary glycolic acid literally works wonders for KP!!! I swear it cleared up 95% on my arms in less than a week. Half the stuff I see online doesn’t work for me at all but it’s so good
ok thank you for this! i remember someone mentioning that a while ago but forgot to check it out for myself. i love glycolic for my face, i'm sure it will be great for my arms :)
I’m sending you love❤❤❤
THE BUMP why is that so funny
I love this video and the way you openly talk about the things you're trying for PCOS.
As someone with PCOS and blood pressure issues (due to a kidney disorder), I do want to add that people should definitely consult with their doctors and do their research. If you want to try low-carb diets and you're diabetic, on blood pressure medication or breastfeeding! Results can vary, and not everything might be safe to do (suddenly).
PCOS is a terrible echo chamber. Each factor makes the other worse. Metformin saved my life though! Once I started the medication is regulated my periods and I lost 25-30lbs. I think the #1 thing I can suggest for PCOS management is finding the right doctor and not giving up until you find a good endocrinologist.
i have a good endo but that is great advice :) i don't want to be on meds, personally. love seeing it work for others tho!
@@chandlerainsleyvlogs totally understand and I’m so glad you were able to be diagnosed and found ways to manage. I could cry thinking about how bad I was before I was finally diagnosed and found answers. What’s crazy is I found out about via another influencer, so please keep sharing your experience!
I have an oura ring, and I do not swear by it.
Omg just bragging about sleeping well. I am jealous lolol
my one true flex 😂
I’m an oura ring (about a year and a half) and Apple Watch (something like 7 years) user (hate the subscription for oura for the record) but fortunately my job gives me a fitness reimbursement that allows me to have it partially paid for.
I also have PCOS and have found that I do enjoy the temperature tracking-my oura ring has caught when I’m getting sick before I feel sick and the temperature insights have made it much easier for me to tell when my period is coming based on the number of days my temp has been high. It also gives me insights into my cardiovascular age, which you can get through the Apple health app (ish) but it’s easier to comprehend in Oura.
That said-hate it for activity tracking. If that’s what you’re interested in, Apple Watch is way way better at tracking that info.
oo thank you for this! kind of lines up with what i thought, but nice to hear more about the temp tracking
Also worth noting-I am not quite at the point of cycle syncing my workouts but the oura ring telling you what part of your cycle you appear to be in would be helpful for that!
I would love a long sleeve tee for merch!
i’ll make that happen this fall for sure!
PCOS talk- when increasing protein & fiber please do so slooowlyy. Your digestive system will need time to adjust, especially if you don’t already eat this way.
true!
Would you ever do a “What I eat in a day?”
probably not, but i can start including more foods & recipes in videos!
I love these vlogs 🤍✨I also want to participate in 30 days of Chan. It’s a challenge but not crazy lol. I’m not going outside hahaha
I like the lighter floor based on the B roll. I also have an oura ring and it’s not as good as the Apple Watch. And the ring is thicc and not in a good way.
I really loved My Oxford Year in the end, but it was so much HEAVIER than I expected and the marketing, editorial copy, etc. was so deceiving. It's one of those books I feel like you need context for before you pick it up...
have you considered laminate flooring over LVP (my apologies if you did mention it and I missed it)? I've had both and I have 2 cats. I found that the LVP scratches a lot easier than laminate (my cats get the zoomies a lot), and is a lot colder, especially if you're installing it on a lower level over a concrete slab, even with underlay (less of an issue on upper levels of the home). I personally found that laminate tends to feel nicer on your feet, does not scratch as easily, and is not that much more expensive. If water/moisture and/or swelling of the laminate is a concern, of course LVP will be better, just depends on the application. just a thought! :) thanks for the long video, love these longer chatty vlogs !
i appreciate your insight! the colder thing would actually be MUCH appreciated here in texas. also the humidity is pretty high here which has us wary of alternatives. definitely something i will look more into though. i know for sure we don't want hardwood or engineered hardwood (which is what we currently have). but hadn't thought much about laminate!
I missed your car chats with Haden
What are some meal examples that you feel have been making you feel good and are high protein and fiber?
my favorite one is in my thumbnail, black beans + potatoes + eggs&egg whites combined. a little higher in carbs but still so filling. it’s my go to breakfast!
I’m trying to get into weight lifting as building muscle really helps me control my blood sugar (also have PCOS). Do you have any suggestions for programs or people to follow to get into it?
whitney simmons & stephanie buttermore have some great programs :)
❤❤
You should check the ultrahuman ring. Kinda like oura but no subscription needed
i’ve looked into that one briefly! definitely curious about it
Not a teen drama at all but this season of Love Island US is giving so hard😭
my sister is a die hard love island stan 😂 she tells me all about it, i just can’t seem to get into reality tv
Does crumble count as fast food?
haha yeah it does. i'm not eating out at all this month
@@chandlerainsleyvlogs dang that’s commitment lol I enjoy your and Hayden’s weekly review but totally get it. Their cookies have so much sugar. I have been off added sugar for quite a bit for my autoimmune issue and I enjoy living through you while you discuss! Best wishes though as I think feeling well is worth it!
Unrelated but I thought your kittens were named Sullivan and Bash?
yeah it was sully and sebastian until i really knew them and their personalities. now they’re pigeon and binky.
i read the Duchess as an ARC and was not a fan. I have loved Sophie Jordan in the past, and I liked the friendship between the ladies but... the relationship development was NOT there.
At 6:29 you say that PCOS is something that doctors don't have a lot answers to, and that the root cause is unknown or not shared by all women.
■ The root cause of PCOS is elevated insulin
■ All women with PCOS have elevated insulin
■ This can be easily confirmed by taking either of these tests:
- Fasting Insulin
- ADIPO-IR
A fasting insulin of over 5 uIU/mL indicates elevated insulin.
Fasting insulin tells you your baseline insulin levels when food isn't adjusting it (hence the "fasting" term).
The ADIPO-IR test is actually a calculation of insulin resistance at your fat cells (adipose tissue).
The ADIPO-IR test can detect the earliest signs of insulin resistance (because fat cells are the first cells to become insulin resistant), and is a better test for insulin resistance than HOMA-IR (although HOMA-IR is a more common test).
If you fix your insulin problems, you fix all of your PCOS problems.
In other words, once you get your insulin levels under control, your body will automatically start reversing the PCOS symptoms over time.
If you are diligent to closely manage your insulin levels, you can see most if not all of your PCOS symptoms reversed in about one year.
If you add in exercise and other insulin-managing lifestyle changes, you can get even faster results, but it is not required.
There are many ways to manage insulin levels, but, if you only have the time and energy to do one thing, the most beneficial thing to do is to keep your total carbohydrate intake below 20g/day.
If you keep your total carbohydrate intake below 20g/day, your insulin levels will be fixed in two or three months (unless your are on hormone altering drugs).
Controlling carbohydrate intake controls insulin because eating carbs spikes your blood sugar which then spikes your insulin.
If you are controlling carbs, you are controlling blood sugar spikes which controls insulin spikes.
It's really that simple.
I am happy to explain more, answer questions, or address concerns.
I'm not sure why so few doctors are aware of how simple PCOS is to reverse.
For whatever reason, most docs want to get women on birth control which will make it almost
impossible to permanently balance your hormones.
Anyway, y'all can be PCOS free in about a year.
Peace and love.
you don’t have to restrict carbs that heavily to fix insulin resistance 😬 some of this info is good, some is a little off
@@chandlerainsleyvlogs Who said you ”have to" restrict carbs to fix insulin resistance?
This is what I wrote:
_"There are many ways to manage insulin levels, but, if you only have the time and energy to do one thing, the most beneficial thing to do is to keep your total carbohydrate intake below 20g/day."_
Read more carefully.
Nothing I said was "a little off."
@@Hertz2laughyour comment is worded in a way that it sounds like ‘all you have to do is eat less carbs, it’s so simple’ but nothing about pcos is simple.
totally blew my mind when one day my boyfriend pointed out that all the book creators i follow are influencing me because i just feel like book recs from people are so different from someone trying to sell you a scam or something. but he had a point where he said i would probably have less books i wanted to read if i wasnt seeing everyone rave about books all the time 🫣
