  • If you're an OG, you would know how much this video means to me. Every kilo was hard work... and it was worth it.
    I know there's still a lot of work to be done, but at least now, I'm a little closer. Remember that I love you and your little bones.

    Finally, an influencer focusing on gaining instead of losing weight. I can relate to you growing up, as in lahat ng jokes sayo, sinabi din yan sakin, as in every single one. Lol. Girl, I’m a 31 year old mother and hinaharang pa din ako sa entrance ng mall this ECQ season and I am asked “Mam, ilang taon na po sila?”
    Nevertheless, thank you for your tips. Appreciate this!

    I'M TELLING YOU GUYS WORKING OUT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!! i've been always a skinny person but during the pandemic, i also started to work out with the mindset of "i am doing this solely for myself and for the betterment of my health," and it is true that you just have to wait it out because with consistent exercise, i gradually gained healthy weight! also, eating home-based meals helped me a lot, along with having enough sleep. YOU CAN DO IT TOO! remember, it's a process. just start small, even just a 5-10 mns. exercise will do (something is better than nothing!), and eventually you'll progress, and you'll soon realize that you're already gaining healthy weight while enjoying working out. 🥰

Yes, tumatawa ako pag sinasabihan nila ko ng certain stuffs about mu body, but deep inside, it hurts. I lost all my confidence. But now, thanks to my boyfriend and some friends who keep on pushing me and telling me that i’m beautiful even tho i’m super skinny. They are helping me to gain weight. Thank God i have this support. We got this!! Tho i’m still under weight now, thank you for this video! Its inspiring.

I'm also super thin and kinda tall kay mas na eemphasize kung gano ako kapayat. People would always joke on my weight and that kind of stick to my mind. But today I am slowly taking that step, been trying to work out and eat a lot. Underweight pa din pero lumalaban hehe. You are not alone girl and KAYA NATIN TO. ✨

I am now 42 (but still need 4kilos more) ❤️ My heart is so happy that I gained weight and you just really need to fixed your mindset and don't worry about what other people said. Gain weight when you are ready. Thank you for inspiring us, Erika! ☺️

    I feel what you've been through, Erika. I'm also skinny before and get frustrated. I experienced all the things you mentioned. I don't do workouts but I jog weekends after work. I eat a lot and sleep to get 8hrs of sleep. It really hurts a lot when everyone noticed and tell you " ang payat mo, kumakain ka ba?" They dont know its an offensive way. Naooffend ako pero I did everything to gain weight. This pandemic, I gain weight. I am now 43 kilos way to go to 45. I'm happy for the results. I just eat, sleep, jog and take vitamins. It's a progress. Don't lose hope and dont give up. Thanks for sharing this and encouraging other people who wants to gain weight. Let's go and gain more weight!

    This is so inspiring. I’m grateful you did this, Erika. I was happy and contented with myself until people started commenting about my weight, that I was too skinny whatsoever. My BMI is normal btw but they still loved picking on my appearance that made me see flaws I never even noticed before. Society can be cruel, traditional tita comments don’t help at all. I hope they put an end to the toxic trait of body shaming and just focus on improving ourselves. It may just be about bodies on the surface but deep down the mental scarring is pretty permanent. Love you, girl!❤️🤗

    Same, I'm also thin almost all my life, I just started gaining weight mga 4th yr college. People keep on telling me to eat a lot para tumaba naman ako, some people tell jokes on me which is not a big deal naman for me. But it made me feel insecure about my body, I just learned how to just deal with it then unti unti my weight is increasing at tumataba na ako. I really didn't force myself to gain weight, naging kind lang ako sa sarili ko when it comes to food. Nakatulong din yung stress na binibigay ng college life sakin hahaha but don't get me wrong, I still eat healthy kahit stress ako because I get so sensitive kapag alam ko ng I'm eating too much unhealthy food like fried foods and junk foods. I will also share my tips based on my experience:
    - Don't force yourself to eat, just eat what you can but don't forget to still eat 3 times a day. Every meal (bfast,lunch,dinner) is important.
    -Make sure to balance what you eat. Kunwari for lunch you ate meat, for dinner gulay naman.
    -This pandemic I also worked out. Working out also makes your body be in shape, so hindi ka lang tumataba but also you will be fit.
    - I stopped drinking carbonated drinks. I drink a lot of water.
    - Kahit stress ka and you tend to eat a lot, just make sure that you're eating the right food. Kasi based on my experience, ang hirap pigilan kumain kapag stress.
    - Appreciate your body, don't be insecure and don't compare your body to others because I'm telling you it will not only help you to become positive about how you are made but you will feel grateful about your body.
    So yun lang 😊

    I'm a 21 year-old and 36kgs lang ako. I take vitamins, nakailang palit na din ako since hindi sya effective. I eat a lot, I eat more than 3 times a day. Everyday kong naririnig yung "para kang kawayan" , "sobrang payat mo", "ang pangit mo" and all those words made me feel na maybe there's something's wrong with me talaga even though nagpapacheck up naman ako to know what's wrong pero ang suggestion naman lagi is to take vitamins and eat. I just need to deal with all the negativities that people throw at me everyday. For them, it's just all fun and games, but for me it's not. They don't know the pain behind all those smiles I give them. :(((
    And knowing that I am not alone in this battle made me a little stronger today than yesterday. ☺️
    We are beautiful. ❤️

At least 2500 calories a day. Mag midnight snacks ka pa hehe. Exercise ka na rin. For 5 months 44.5kg na ko ngayon :) my goal is at least 47kg. Kaya mo rin yan :)))

    Ive always been underweight growing up, so I grew up with people judging my physique(all the time). But this pandemic really take toll on my life from a 38 kg as a college student, my weight really deteriorates. Ever since this pandemic has started, I stayed at home for more than a year without going out of my room to take breakfast. I know it's my fault that I let this pandemic affect me but I just can't help but to really give up on everything that time. I just felt really unmotivated to start my day. That's why after a year of skipping breakfast and some unhealthy sleeping schedule, my weight fell into 34 kg and I'm on my 20s now, working too. Baggy clothes, long sleeves and wide leg pants are my savior. I was never confident of my body that even though I love dancing I never try to dance in front of anyone cause I feel like I just look like some stick swaying. But right now I'm trying to get back my old self and if it's not too greedy, I really want escape this underweight stage and enjoy a life where I can freely wear clothes of my style and go to the beach without hiding my entire body. I'm still unsure of how this journey of mine would be but all I know is I will wish us all the best, hoping that we'll all achieve whatever we're working on right now.
    If my journey to gaining weight succeed like her I might update you guys.

    I am also skinny before 38kgs also and I am 5ft, my waistline is 24-25. People also said "sana all kain ng kain pero di tumataba." And I think before na I look good on it. But when I gained weight dun ko narealize na sobrang payat ko pala talaga dati. Now, I am 52kgs same height, I love body now. I became more confident and comfortable. I think one thing that really helps me is the mindset that I am doing it for myself. Because that will be the time na magagawa mong kumain ng healthy without forcing yourself. Mas naeejoy mo lang and it's just a bonus when people tell it looks good on you. Thank you Erika! Some people really don't understand the feeling but so proud of you!!!!

    Payat ako, yes. Its my insecurity, yes. But when people dictates na dapat sexy ka, may boobs, may pwet etc. I say no to that. Ladies remember, what shape our body has don't let others get your guard down. Wag tayo makiayon sa sinasabi ng mundo na dapat ganito ka. Kasi una pa lang aanhin mo yung ganda ng katawan kung wala kang kagandahan sa ugali. My point is, do workout to get better but don't do it coz other dictates you to do and want you to be that person they want. But do it for yourself like ate Erika said. Maybe nice body is attractive but having beautiful character will make you 1000x more attractive.
    We are beautiful 💓

Tapos everytime makita ako ng relatives ko sasabihin nila na mas mataas at mas malaki pa yung ibang cousins ko na mas bata pa sa akin. Nakakabawas talaga ng self-confidence. I did my best and I'm still trying my best to gain weight but my course is so demanding when it comes to time and effort (kaya lagi akong kulang sa tulog). And then I realized that acceptance and self-love is much more important. We don't need the opinion of others to validate our worth and value. We just need to focus on ourselves.

Pero hindi pala. Kasi ok na pala to. And ganon talaga people will always say na "magpapayat ka, magpataba ka...".. but thanks for making me realize na ok lang ung gantong body type though it is confusing with the world's standards.

      @ if gusto mo lumaki arms mo, try mo gumamit ng weights. start kalang sa 3 or 4lbs ganun. kung sa legs namin gamit ka dn kettle dumbbell. hindi po ako professional based lang sa exp ko yan HAHA magsearch ka dn po sa yt.

      @ Hi! As for me, I usually skip the cardio parts, since the tendency is mabeburn yung kakaunting fat na meron ako 😅 idk if that is advisable for us skinny. I just focus on exercises on building muscles both upper and lower body ☺️

    • @gelliesguerra4181
      @gelliesguerra4181 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @ I've actually watched a video that if you do workouts to gain weight, the recommended time is not before breakfast because the tendency is wala kang extra calorie na mabeburn. So ako, nagworkout ako before eating dinner, para maparami rin ako ng kain after :) I hope this helps

    I can relate on this ms. erika. My height is 5’3 and my weight is 37-38 kg back then. Grabe yung bash ng mga tao sakin, lollipop daw. I really hated my body and myself too but when I learned not to listen to other peoples sh’ts I realized how beautiful I am. This is me, I am unique. Then, I gained weight now ✊🏻 from 37kg to 44kg. Laban lang mga sis! Kahit ano pang body meron tayo matuto tayong mahalin mga sarili natin! I’ve been a fan of ms. erika since 2014 😽 I really love her smile that’s why I keep liking her photos back theeen! Luv u!

    When i was on high school i was about 27 to 30 kg. and my height was about 5'0 ft back then. So imagine how thin i was. Where the same i also heard lot of things and stuff like "Oyy tingting", "malnourished", "skeleton" and i can still remember someone sing a song to bully me with the Song Ad, "Eskelan". "Ayos na ang buto buto".
    It was really frustrating, sometimes hindi ko na din kinanakaya. I was so desperate to gain weight but yet my metabolism won't allow me. Thanks for sharing this erika. Really inspiring ❤️ i eventually motivated to focus more in doing my workouts.

    Same. 24 years old, and still stuck in a grade school body. Pero since pandemic happens, from 38kgs to 51kgs. hahaha I used to work in a hospitality industry and I tend to skip meals so it’s hard for me to earn weights back then, I used hear the same words na “ang payat payat mo kain ka naman, oh baka liparin ka! or pinaka worse pinag kakamalan kang bata sa lahat ng establishment na pede mong pasukan, thank you Erika for sharing your thoughts and experiences! Stay safe! :)

    I remember myself crying bc of some remark other ppl would say minsan nga relatives pa eh. It became worst during college bc yun nga everyone is developed na by that time and I dont look my age mukha raw akong 12 yr old 🤣 but I rlly cried about my weight when I saw my name vandalized on the university’s cr cubicle na ang payat payat ko raw nung una hindi siya masakit but at one point I broke down bc everyone I know saw it and mas nafocus ako sa insecurity ko which is my body. I became 45 kg nung ojt nung college from 40 naging 45 😂 I’m 5’3 and underweight pa rin till now I look thicker now but my weight still lie around 45-47. Working out really helps, eating a lot and getting a good amount of sleep. This video inspired me to be patient and do the work 🏋️‍♀️ Thank you for sharing!! 🥺❤️

    Naturally skinny since birth despite my strong appetite and I got even slimmer as the pandemic heightened. Lost 5 kgs from 45 (btw I’m 5’2).
    I think we also need to emphasize the importance of being mentally healthy-to free ourselves of doubts and anxiety about us or even the things we can’t control. It’s still a struggle to gain weight, though. And to come back from a major workout break due to stress and whatnot. But I’m getting by. I hope y’all are, too. 🤍 Truly appreciate the company through this vid. 🥂

  • @jessamaejoven2246
    @jessamaejoven2246 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I'm also skinny and everytime they make fun of my body or weight, hindi naman ako pikon so tumatawa din ako DATI. But then I realize na I don't have to laugh just because it's funny for them. It's not being killjoy, it's about respecting my boundaries.
    I'm also gaining weight already. Pero controlled yung pag gain ko ng weight. Kasi ayoko dumating sa point na nag gain ng weight pero hindi na comfortable sa body. So we still need to balance if we make changes to our body para we can still say this words, "I'm already comfortable with my body"

    Sobrang relate ako sa struggles mo to the point na naggoose bumps ako at gusto maiyak habang nagkkwento ka. I remember the first time na nakilala kita it was from your ig post where your caption is about being skinny and you said na love your little bones at naisip ko nung time na yun that you look okay, siguro dahil mas skinny pa ako sayo. And now you have gained 10kgs, which I know is hard. I just wanted to say I'm proud of you and I hope someday I could tell it to myself too. 💕

    Thank you for this inspiring video, ate erika! I've been supporting you and looking up to you for yrs because you're very beautiful and we have the same body-ish. But now that you gained weight, I'm still here not gaining much and still feeling insecure. And I'm also feeling anxious about meeting my old friends after this pandemic because they might say that nothing has changed, I'm still thin despite my efforts. It's funny for me because I usually gain weight and then very soon I lose it, I rlly find it weird. But this video is really pushing me to do more and to do it for myself and not for anyone else.

  • @coconutstrawberry2394

    grabe ang timely nitong video :( when I was in manila for college, I ate SO MUCH but since the start of pandemic + doing online school in the province my mental health hit rock bottom, it affected my physical health as well hanggang sa wala nako gana kumain and when I try i feel nauseous. My weight went from 45kg to 38 and my height is 5ft. I also started to feel uncomfortable with my body that I cant stop wearing sweatshirts/jacket just so people wouldn't notice I got so skinny. I also lost my period for a year :( haha grabe. coming across this video inspires me to set my shit straight. thank you 🥺

    I've been thinking about this for such a long time po. Thank you for sharing your experiences dto rin, nakakainspire. Few people have actually told me noon na may similarities daw tayo and when I watched this vid rn, narealize ko, included rin yung body shape. Insecure rin ako sa body ko, usually I tend to compare my body sa mga ka age ko and pansin ko talaga how different mine is compared sa kanila na matured na. I felt trapped sa body ko to the point na I kept on researching on different factors like clothing, make up, etc.
    Will try doing work-outs soon, thank you again! 😊

I didn’t have insecurities about my body until recently someone told me I’m too thin and a lot of people around started telling me that too so i started feeling insecure. Thank you for the advice and i do agree on gaining weight for health purposes bcoz i am severely underweight.
