I feel the same. There’s a lot of people I’ve watched for a while and once they got tons of followers and more money their videos became unattainable ideas for normal people or braggy and then I only hate watch them.
@BeatriceCaruso I have not yet been able to determine at what age one is allowed to speak without a filter and blame it on age. For reference, I am somewhere in the neighborhood of Elmo's age. But I have a couple of people I know that just astound me. One of them has no difficulty talking to the usher at the movie theater over a particular poster, and letting out a fart while she's standing right next to him. She'll also do the same in the booth at the restaurant. She's 70 or 71. And she's an educated woman. I'm always flabbergasted
@@LindaC616 Well you dont wanna hold a fart in but I would remove myself to a bathroom and defo not stand beside someone and fart. Does she apologise when she farts?
OMG YES. I have been going to water aerobics with my mom for months and I'm 25. Everyone thinks I'm there for my mom but nah I'm using her as an excuse to go. The DRAMA. The GOSSIP. Incredible. We celebrated one woman's 90th birthday during class once. And it's absolutely a slept on workout. I also do zumba and end up burning almost the same amount of calories minus like 100 in the same amount of time as water aerobics. LOVE that you've also found the glory in this lol, old lady gossip AND a good workout?! A deal.
Lifeguard and instructor here - thank you so much for preaching this! I wish there was a younger cohort that was as into this as you are. It makes it really fun when there is a variety of demographics participating (from an instructor point of view).
As someone who learnt to swim at 51 it was one of the best things I have done. I don’t swim fast or for hours but it great for mental health and it is great exercise
I love watching Bea, because she is down to earth real. She is not like other people on TH-cam that have to have a perfect house, perfect clothes and perfect make-up....she is the real deal....don't change Bea! 😊
I love the fact that you are doing this as a fun way to spend time with your aunt mom and grandmother. You'll always be so glad you made time to have fun together ❤
I don't even watch reality dating shows but I am LIVING for Bea recapping Love is Blind. Maybe I'd actually watch it if you applied 😂 Much love as always 💜
Hi Bea! As a senior dietetic student my recommendation would be to see a gastrointestinal specialized dietitian to help with all of the issues you’re having. Those mail in tests are notoriously inaccurate and tell you to restrict a lot of unnecessary things.
@@theunpopularchannel6209 yes, exactly. It’s not like she will be coming to me, so there will be no financial gain for me to be saying this. From my professional opinion, it would be in the best interest to seek a professional in this field.
As a non-professional, I'd also recommend not completely removing gluten and dairy. Completely removing those groups for a long period could mean that your body would have an even harder time digesting them if you choose to add them back. Also natural yoghurt is good for digestion
I’m 28 and I took swim lessons last year best decision ever! Learned to swim in two lessons and now i backstroke at the rec center. It’s a great workout and very relaxing. 10/10 would recommend.
I hurt my knee about a couple months ago and I started adding in water aerobics and swimming. You are right! That class is slept on! I have so much fun!
Hey Bea! I just thought about you and boom here you are. I'm excited to watch This week's edition of "I'm not by myself in this bullshit"😂 I love your transparency.
I freaking love Bea. We would totally be friends. I’m 31 and in a book club with all women on their 60s. I binged love is blind last weekend and Chelsea is so intense 🤣
Love is Blind is my guilty pleasure. So much drama and clever editing 😂 My mom and aunt used to love water aerobics for all the reasons you mentioned. Wish my mom was still going, she quit after my aunt passed away and her mental and physical health have steadily declined since (not just due to the lack of water aerobics).
Hey Bea!! Thanks for making this, I've been avoiding this idea since it seems like something no one my age would even attempt esp in a small town but you've inspired me! I am taking this as a sign and gonna check out a local pool and see if they offer this!! Have a great week lovely! 😀
So happy to hear you are doing healthier activities with your family. You will definitely see results from taking swimming lessons. Very curious about your stomach readings. Thanks for sharing with us 🥰
Yes! I've never taken water aerobics but I live in Florida and we do have a pool. The water gets too cold in the winter (we're wimpy) but it's warm now and we do a lot of swimming. I'm going to have to watch a water aerobic video to see other exercises. Enjoy!
Just a thought I had while you were talking about the gut-health test you took. If that company is selling products to "fix" what ever they deem wrong with you, maybe good to double check with some other neutral test/even a competing company before going full-tilt into whatever they suggest. Just a thought, and I wish you so much luck in sorting through!
They do sell supplements but what was suggested to me was to cut gluten and dairy lol. Although they did suggest taking another test after but that seemed pretty standard lol
@Elyse Catelyn unfortunately for gluten sensitivity most standard blood test have very low accuracy, the standard ones here in Germany are arund 50%. I was misdiagnosed as a kid and it kind of ruined my relationship with food in some aspects.
As someone who had to cut out gluten dairy and corn because of endometriosis, it’s hard but after a month of searching through different products you can absolutely have a similar eating style as you have now. The only thing I miss is the ease of going out to a restaurant with out reading ingredients and allergens on every dish
oh now i wish i had water aerobics lessons around me!! swimming and walking are honestly the only cardio workouts that i like doing.. i have a public pool near me which is usually packed so had to do laps but still it is my preferred workout in summers.. and yes it does make you hungry and sleepy afterwards ... so its better to go in the evening i think... you sleep so well on the days you swim.. also i don't usually see a huge difference on the scale after swimming for some reason but i do feel it... like i have asthma and have to climb inclines to reach my college and it always gets so much better after a few days of swimming... just helps you breathe better.... and just in general you feel so energized i think.... i hope you learn to swim.... it was the best thing i learnt for sure for sure.
I can empathize with the stomach issues. 10 years of seeing a gastro doctor. Food was fast tracked thru my system and struggled with weight. I carried my emotions in my guts so when I was anxious, upset, nervous…whatever…it would attack me. Did your doctor ever do a SIBO test on you? I hope you get it worked out!! Love your channel so much!
1: Take protein shake for after swimming, try Huel cinnamon swirl 2: take tupperware box for the wet bathing suit 3: I have same issues food wise, I feel your pain
Slightly random thought-I like how you share about your relationships with your family. I do not have a relationship with either of my parents and it's nice to see some people still do have healthy relationships with at least some of their family members. I miss my Grandma, but there is nothing I can do about that. So I'm going to live vicariously though you and Chetty!
I don't have a relationship with my maternal grandmother as she's a vile human being, and my paternal grandmother passed when I was really young. I kind of want to adopt Bea's grandma too. We should do shirts and pool money together to send her something from all her virtual grandkids❤.
Omg, I'm right there with you, girl! Water aerobics is totally slept on! I started when I was 29 and was definitely the youngest in my class, although there was a variety of ages in my first class. I'm 32 now and still love it 😊. So glad I'm not alone in this. Can't wait to hear more about it and the tea!😂❤
I started water aerobics in January just to ease back into the gym. I’m totally loving it. So great to hear your sharing this with your family. Good luck with trying gluten and dairy free. You might be shocked with results!
Wet/Dry bags are great for storing swimsuits. They come in cute patterns and in various sizes! And they don’t leak in your purse or bag. Growing from seeds is trial and error. I found that buying seeds from local companies fair better. Wild Mountain seeds, high dessert seeds, Miss Penn’s Mountain seeds are all colorado companies. In Denver there is Heirloom Tomato Farms - their tomato starts grew beautifully despite the hailstorms, extreme winds,heat. I recommend green zebra and purple dwarf heart 😊 Wishing you luck on the growing season 💚
I also cut out dairy and gluten to fix my gut health. My nutritionist said to cut it out for 3 months to give my gut a chance to heal but at the end of 3 months I didn’t even want to eat it anymore because of how good I felt! My skin also totally cleared up and I rarely get sick. It was hard at first and I do still eat it from time to time but cutting back has been the best thing I’ve ever done 😊 good luck with your challenge!
I love water aerobics. Its one exercise I dont have to worry about my disability with. I was always the youngest person there too. The ladies that go are always so nice to me.
Bea! There are some awesome dairy free options nowadays! I’m 90% DF (if a cookie has butter, it’s not the end of world). My favorite DF alternatives are coconut milk or almond coconut milk (Almond Breeze actually makes banana milk!), So Delicious yogurt, and ordering DF fromage blanc shipped from Sessions Vegan Cheese in Salt Lake City as my cream cheese alternative (it’s bougie but GOOD!) I also just had Daiya Mac and Cheez (GF and DF) and it was fantastic! I hadn’t had macaroni and cheese in years and no joke, I nearly cried lol. And if you want ice cream, 10/10, would recommend Ben and Jerry’s DF selection! You’ve got this 🎉
About the gut situation, I get you 😂 Have you considered looking into seeing a dietician (NOT a nutritionist)? I went to one for ibs and she took my ed history and food/texture aversions into consideration when helping me ease my overly dramatic gut. It helped to have someone on my side and just an email away when I had questions. It was also covered by my insurance - or at least the first 6 appointments were 100% covered. You could even do it after the 90 day challenge with what knowledge you have gained.
I started taking swim lessons at 26 and it is AMAZING! It's such a good workout and your joints and bones will thank you. Only downside is you're alone with your thoughts when swimming laps since there aren't any good headphone options out there 😅 and it gets a bit boring/repetitive. But it still a top option for me when going to the gym.
I just recently joined a gym with water aerobics as well, it is SO much fun!! I'm the youngest in my classes, but hey, it's fun and I'm doing a work out, that is all that matters!!
I actually got hurt during this video. I have a bad back injury and was resting in bed watching Bea talk and when she said the sweet treat might taste like a horse's hoof, I just burst out laughing. Damn that hurt my back but it was so worth it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Water aerobics is pretty gosh darn amazing for us big girls as well as the older ladies. I take my mom twice a week and she loves it but I agree with being the youngest one there and the way they wanna chill in the hot tub afterwards and chat! It’s soo cute!!
Love a Tea with Bea! Saved it up to watch with my morning coffee ☕ and I agree with the swimming thing, because it doesn't seem to cause strain like running or cycling it is hard to tell just how much exercise you've done. When I used to swim I would get super sleepy and have to have a sit down and a biscuit 🍪
If it makes you feel more secure, a 7.5 shoe size is average for 5'6! Most of my female relatives are around 5'7 and they all wear that shoe size too. Edit: your water aerobics class sounds like the cast of Bob's Burgers and I'm so here for this
I think swimming would be a great idea! And also, there's so many levels of swimming as well - I bet Dougie would LOVE going wild swimming with you! And also, if you can swim safely then you can paddleboard and/or other water-based sports so that might be exciting goals that could satisfy the novelty monster :D Good luck - I've decided to get some inline skates as running is too painful but skating motivates me to do my physio so that I can skate more safely :)
I love my water aerobic classes! I am the youngest in my class too but amp it up by using the barbells during the entire workout. I have been doing this for 4 years and lost so much weight!! I have issues with my feet too😩 I actually went to lunch and shopping with my 2 friends from my class….they are in their 70’s! Love them! They always ask why I want to hang around old people! LOL
I love your new house it seems so bright and cheerful. You have a great eye for esthetics it's probably based on your artistic ability. Tea With Bea Rocks !!! I think running sucks. You never see someone running with a big smile on their face, they always look like they are contemplating their own death or that they are trying hard to make it to the bathroom in time. Super not fun.
I feel your pain, I got very sick a few years ago & my gut was a mess, 3 different types of yeast infection, fungul infection & leaky gut. It took me 2 years to heal. I wasn’t allowed to eat anything. I lost weight but was so unhappy because I was so hungry but I needed to get healthy again. That was the motivation to stay true to the diet. Good luck Béa.
I have IBS and I started taking a pro/pre/digestive enzyme and it was life changing. It took a year and a half but my lactose intolerance isn't as bad anymore and I feel so much better. I hope you find something that works for you!
Me and a bestie were chonky in highschool and we did a few things together fitness-wise. Joined a gym together you know, usual stuff, whatever. But we also at one point started going to water aerobics! And that shit was fun as hell! We had the same sort of experience except we were like 17 with a bunch of old grannies. It was a good workout and so easy on the hips/knees. Then at the end we would go chill in the hot tub or have a sauna. Honestly I have thought about going back and doing it in my thirties now that my ankles are shit. I recommend!
I also had to give up dairy and gluten and honestly when I did I felt the best I have ever felt in my life!! I felt happy, light, motivated... It blew my mind! I have not been perfect with it so that didn't last but this is motivating me to do it again because I really miss feeling this way now. They make nice gluten free products and plant milk and cheese now days , so it should be even easier this time around.
Also giving up dairy made my join pain magically disappear. I have sensitive joins due to an accident I had and they were painful often. Without dairy no more pain, even if im much heavier now, the pain only come back If I have dairy.
I had really bad panic attack at the end of 2021 and residual anxiety after. I learned I had PCOS this year after trying to conceive for over 3 years. I did so much studying into gut health and PCOS symptoms associated with that. I do gluten free as best as I can. Low sugar. No dairy. And organic as much as possible. Also I haven't had caffeine since my panic attack. Caffeine really affects a lot negatively. ❤ it's a struggle but I've lost weight now finally from it, my anxiety and depression have improved significantly, less brain fog, and regular periods. You got this Bea!!! Rooting for you!
Girl do not feel bad about your little baby farmer fail. I’m on my third set of seedlings this year😂😂😂 also it’s ok to just cut down on dairy and gluten, and eventually cut it out as you adjust
first off I love you and all of your content, I am a long time follower and have always been able to relate with you, one of my comfort TH-camrs lol. I have been trying to do gluten free and am trying to ease out dairy as well, let me say it is HARD when you can’t have your favorite foods anymore, but it is so worth it. I personally feel like a whole different person, it’s a sacrifice I’ve decided I need to make. Good luck! Rooting for you!!
I would definitely try meeting with a dietician! You might need to just do a low fodmap diet. I had to do that for several months and it's cool because it helps to figure out which food groups negatively effect your gut. You can still have certain cheese and sourdough bread (since that's lower gluten) etc. I highly recommend checking that out! As someone who also struggles with binge eating disorder, it helped me a lot since I didn't need to cut complete dairy and gluten etc.
Hey Bea. I'm finishing a doctorate studying treatment for PCOS (which I've been diagnosed with). I have learned that there is a significant association between gut health and both mental health and PCOS symptoms. You're on the right track ❤
I've been doing carnivore to eliminate the inflammation and I did not binge since. I will bring back grains at some point but for now, I feel good. I put butter in my coffee now and emmersion blender the heck out of it. It's amazing. Good luck!
In summer 2021, I went swimming almost every week day at the city pool. I had to swim around rowdy children, which was annoying, but I got so snatched that summer. And a gorgeous tan! I highly recommend swimming for exercise.
She's literally the only person I can watch over and over again without getting bored or tired 💖 you inspire me sm w my channel 💖🥰🍓♥️♥️🥰♥️❤❤❤❤
Same. Bea is the only one I let TH-cam send push notifications for. Sometimes I make myself wait to watch her newest video as a reward.
Same. My comfort channel.
Same I’ve watched b since she had like 100k followers. I also watch Samantha Jo. I think those two would hit it off honestly lol.
I feel the same. There’s a lot of people I’ve watched for a while and once they got tons of followers and more money their videos became unattainable ideas for normal people or braggy and then I only hate watch them.
LITERALLY!!!
Literally laughed out loud at so many moments of this episode of Tea with Bea. It's the water aerobics police that got me! 😂
They’re real and on patrol! Lol
@BeatriceCaruso I have not yet been able to determine at what age one is allowed to speak without a filter and blame it on age. For reference, I am somewhere in the neighborhood of Elmo's age. But I have a couple of people I know that just astound me. One of them has no difficulty talking to the usher at the movie theater over a particular poster, and letting out a fart while she's standing right next to him. She'll also do the same in the booth at the restaurant. She's 70 or 71. And she's an educated woman. I'm always flabbergasted
@@LindaC616 Well you dont wanna hold a fart in but I would remove myself to a bathroom and defo not stand beside someone and fart. Does she apologise when she farts?

Girl definitely do it! It’s fun!!
It’s a lot of fun! Let me know if you give it a go!!💛🐥💛🐥🦕🦑
Do it!!! I did it once a day before my due date at age 24 and all the women there were 50+ but it was so much fun!
Feeling a bit shy but will give it a go now
So happy to hear you are doing healthier activities with your family. You will definitely see results from taking swimming lessons. Very curious about your stomach readings. Thanks for sharing with us 🥰
That Green Chef cutting board spin was 😘👌🏻*chefs kiss*
Yes! I've never taken water aerobics but I live in Florida and we do have a pool. The water gets too cold in the winter (we're wimpy) but it's warm now and we do a lot of swimming. I'm going to have to watch a water aerobic video to see other exercises. Enjoy!
I LOVE aqua aerobics!!! I go with my mom and I love hanging out with all the older ladies! I swim a little afterwards too.
You are so comforting and genuine with all of your content! ❤
I’ve been doing water aerobics at my local rec center and it’s been so good
I’m also learning to swim & it’s been so helpful
Water aerobics and swimming laps sound fantastic, so glad you've tried it! =)
I love water aerobics too! It doesn’t feel like working out
Just a thought I had while you were talking about the gut-health test you took. If that company is selling products to "fix" what ever they deem wrong with you, maybe good to double check with some other neutral test/even a competing company before going full-tilt into whatever they suggest. Just a thought, and I wish you so much luck in sorting through!
That’s my thought too. Especially if this triggers a binge cycle.
It's quite common for these companies to tell you that you need something....oh look we sell just the thing 🙄
They do sell supplements but what was suggested to me was to cut gluten and dairy lol. Although they did suggest taking another test after but that seemed pretty standard lol
I thought maybe getting a full panel blood test from your Dr would be more accurate too
@Elyse Catelyn unfortunately for gluten sensitivity most standard blood test have very low accuracy, the standard ones here in Germany are arund 50%. I was misdiagnosed as a kid and it kind of ruined my relationship with food in some aspects.
I wanted to watch something while getting my steps in inside and I was so happy to see a new video up!!
I've taught water aerobics for 20 years and I shake when I get out of the pool. You need water shoes. 😊
I absolutely love watching you discover what’s good for you and what’s not. You inspire me to get back into water aerobics.
As someone who had to cut out gluten dairy and corn because of endometriosis, it’s hard but after a month of searching through different products you can absolutely have a similar eating style as you have now. The only thing I miss is the ease of going out to a restaurant with out reading ingredients and allergens on every dish
Omg I also have endonetrioses, did you do the surgery or changing your diet helped enough? I’m currently in the middle of switching my diet!
oh now i wish i had water aerobics lessons around me!! swimming and walking are honestly the only cardio workouts that i like doing.. i have a public pool near me which is usually packed so had to do laps but still it is my preferred workout in summers.. and yes it does make you hungry and sleepy afterwards ... so its better to go in the evening i think... you sleep so well on the days you swim.. also i don't usually see a huge difference on the scale after swimming for some reason but i do feel it... like i have asthma and have to climb inclines to reach my college and it always gets so much better after a few days of swimming... just helps you breathe better.... and just in general you feel so energized i think.... i hope you learn to swim.... it was the best thing i learnt for sure for sure.

1: Take protein shake for after swimming, try Huel cinnamon swirl
2: take tupperware box for the wet bathing suit
3: I have same issues food wise, I feel your pain
My gym had a swimsuit spinner, I would take my suit into shower with me, then spin it and hang it up in shower at home to dry.
Your green chef promos are SO SMOOTH, every time I'm like 'damn, she got me again. genius!;
Slightly random thought-I like how you share about your relationships with your family. I do not have a relationship with either of my parents and it's nice to see some people still do have healthy relationships with at least some of their family members.

Would love to see more art projects and creative endeavors :) glad you're having fun

i love your shirt?? the different cross-sections of a strawberry, just adorable
I do water aerobics with the old ladies...your take was spot on
i teach old ladies to do water ballet....that is a whole 'nother level
I just recently joined a gym with water aerobics as well, it is SO much fun!! I'm the youngest in my classes, but hey, it's fun and I'm doing a work out, that is all that matters!!
Always look forward to Tea ☕ with Bea! ❤
i go to water aerobics with my mom and im always the youngest there too, but i love it. The deep end classes can be really killer
I actually got hurt during this video. I have a bad back injury and was resting in bed watching Bea talk and when she said the sweet treat might taste like a horse's hoof, I just burst out laughing. Damn that hurt my back but it was so worth it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I lost it with the horse hoof too. Made my family wonder what I snorted at!!

I'm so excited! Usually I'm at work when these videos come out so I gotta wait but NOT TODAY ❤❤❤ Love you Bea!
Love a Tea with Bea! Saved it up to watch with my morning coffee ☕ and I agree with the swimming thing, because it doesn't seem to cause strain like running or cycling it is hard to tell just how much exercise you've done. When I used to swim I would get super sleepy and have to have a sit down and a biscuit 🍪
If it makes you feel more secure, a 7.5 shoe size is average for 5'6! Most of my female relatives are around 5'7 and they all wear that shoe size too. Edit: your water aerobics class sounds like the cast of Bob's Burgers and I'm so here for this
I think swimming would be a great idea! And also, there's so many levels of swimming as well - I bet Dougie would LOVE going wild swimming with you!
And also, if you can swim safely then you can paddleboard and/or other water-based sports so that might be exciting goals that could satisfy the novelty monster :D
Good luck - I've decided to get some inline skates as running is too painful but skating motivates me to do my physio so that I can skate more safely :)
You channel is the best thing on TH-cam! I love it!
I remember how great food was after swimming all day as a kid. I think that is how I learned to cook.😊
Same!
I saw a study that adding fermented foods really helps when you increase fiber and don't have a ton of good gut flora
I saw this come up last night, and “saved it” for this morning to watch with my coffee so I could start my day off nicely. ☕️🦕
yes please to the in depth test results episode!!!!
Yay Monday with Bea❤
I love my water aerobic classes! I am the youngest in my class too but amp it up by using the barbells during the entire workout.
I have been doing this for 4 years and lost so much weight!! I have issues with my feet too😩
I actually went to lunch and shopping with my 2 friends from my class….they are in their 70’s! Love them!
They always ask why I want to hang around old people! LOL
I’ve been doing water aerobics with my mom forever, I always love that I’m the youngest one.
I love your new house it seems so bright and cheerful. You have a great eye for esthetics it's probably based on your artistic ability. Tea With Bea Rocks !!! I think running sucks. You never see someone running with a big smile on their face, they always look like they are contemplating their own death or that they are trying hard to make it to the bathroom in time. Super not fun.
I feel your pain, I got very sick a few years ago & my gut was a mess, 3 different types of yeast infection, fungul infection & leaky gut. It took me 2 years to heal. I wasn’t allowed to eat anything. I lost weight but was so unhappy because I was so hungry but I needed to get healthy again. That was the motivation to stay true to the diet. Good luck Béa.
I have IBS and I started taking a pro/pre/digestive enzyme and it was life changing. It took a year and a half but my lactose intolerance isn't as bad anymore and I feel so much better. I hope you find something that works for you!
Water aerobic is truly slept on. It is really a great workout....I liked it a lot.
I ❤ water aerobics. Some do not realize how difficult it can be at times while taking pressure off your joints. Thanks Bea 🙂
10:35 there has never been a more opportune time to say "you smelling what I'm stepping in?" 😂😂😂
Water aerobics is definitely fun.
I’m a huge fan of water aerobics. People underestimate how great of a workout you can get. It’s definitely not just for the elderly.
Me and a bestie were chonky in highschool and we did a few things together fitness-wise. Joined a gym together you know, usual stuff, whatever. But we also at one point started going to water aerobics! And that shit was fun as hell! We had the same sort of experience except we were like 17 with a bunch of old grannies. It was a good workout and so easy on the hips/knees. Then at the end we would go chill in the hot tub or have a sauna. Honestly I have thought about going back and doing it in my thirties now that my ankles are shit. I recommend!
I didn't know that water aerobics tea was the tea I needed, but now I am INVESTED.
I also had to give up dairy and gluten and honestly when I did I felt the best I have ever felt in my life!! I felt happy, light, motivated... It blew my mind! I have not been perfect with it so that didn't last but this is motivating me to do it again because I really miss feeling this way now. They make nice gluten free products and plant milk and cheese now days , so it should be even easier this time around.
Also giving up dairy made my join pain magically disappear. I have sensitive joins due to an accident I had and they were painful often. Without dairy no more pain, even if im much heavier now, the pain only come back If I have dairy.
Love you Bea!!!
I love aquarobics😁 (that's what my pool calls it)
For the wet bathingsuit, I bring a plastic(shopping)bag
I had really bad panic attack at the end of 2021 and residual anxiety after. I learned I had PCOS this year after trying to conceive for over 3 years. I did so much studying into gut health and PCOS symptoms associated with that. I do gluten free as best as I can. Low sugar. No dairy. And organic as much as possible. Also I haven't had caffeine since my panic attack. Caffeine really affects a lot negatively. ❤ it's a struggle but I've lost weight now finally from it, my anxiety and depression have improved significantly, less brain fog, and regular periods. You got this Bea!!! Rooting for you!
Girl do not feel bad about your little baby farmer fail. I’m on my third set of seedlings this year😂😂😂 also it’s ok to just cut down on dairy and gluten, and eventually cut it out as you adjust
I now have this vision of you and the girls at water aerobics and I keep chuckling whenever it pops up🤪
I teach aqua fitness classes and you were so on point of how they act including the aqua fitness officer 🤣 had me dying!
first off I love you and all of your content, I am a long time follower and have always been able to relate with you, one of my comfort TH-camrs lol. I have been trying to do gluten free and am trying to ease out dairy as well, let me say it is HARD when you can’t have your favorite foods anymore, but it is so worth it. I personally feel like a whole different person, it’s a sacrifice I’ve decided I need to make. Good luck! Rooting for you!!
Weightlifting combined with swimming sounds like a great routine!
I would definitely try meeting with a dietician! You might need to just do a low fodmap diet. I had to do that for several months and it's cool because it helps to figure out which food groups negatively effect your gut. You can still have certain cheese and sourdough bread (since that's lower gluten) etc. I highly recommend checking that out! As someone who also struggles with binge eating disorder, it helped me a lot since I didn't need to cut complete dairy and gluten etc.
Heyyyyyyy love!! Happy Monday 🤗so glad to see another upload!! 💜
Ahhhhhh!!! I’m on the Love is Blind drama too! I think Tiffany and Brett will definitely say I do!
That’s a really good idea. And three months is a good time period. I want to join you !
Water aerobics is the best!!! Those old ladies are hilarious
oh my goodness your amazing and i totally agree with you on love is blind ❤😂
Almond creamer and silk yogurt ftw!
I’m 38 and I’m on the waitlist for an adult swim class!! I would LOVE if you took swim lessons and chronicled them for us!
Hey Bea. I'm finishing a doctorate studying treatment for PCOS (which I've been diagnosed with). I have learned that there is a significant association between gut health and both mental health and PCOS symptoms. You're on the right track ❤
I've been doing carnivore to eliminate the inflammation and I did not binge since. I will bring back grains at some point but for now, I feel good. I put butter in my coffee now and emmersion blender the heck out of it. It's amazing. Good luck!
In summer 2021, I went swimming almost every week day at the city pool. I had to swim around rowdy children, which was annoying, but I got so snatched that summer. And a gorgeous tan! I highly recommend swimming for exercise.
