    Episode 11 was filmed: December 2018
    ABOUT THE GLOW UP DIARIES: At rock bottom I picked up a camera and began documenting my physical and mental pain that seemingly existed without meaning. From age 17 to 22 years old I recorded the “Glow Up Diaries” which is a raw docu-series of my deepest, most painful moments in an effort to find a newer, brighter existence. I openly share my difficulties despite the insistence of the media that such “shameful” feelings be kept in a closet.

    ABOUT: This is a 6 year docu-series of my coming of age story. I originally thought I would end this series after a few months but ugly truths unraveled as I went further into my glow up journey. I began recording the glow up diaries at 17 years old and finished when I turned 22 years old.

      You don't need fructose at all. I recommend carbs (ya, know carbs are sugar) to fill your daily need of sugars. Carbs as sugar source are much better for your insulin levels and it is easier to get off refined sugar addiction when you don't eat fructose.

      It definitely does. This made it kind of hard and extra annoying when we had to do school at home, because I associate school with school work and home with free time. It made me less productive because my mind was like “why am I doing work, in at home, I should t be working”. The good part was that’s how everyone felt, and I still managed to turn in the assignments on time and get good grades

      Souma Maity a mix of working out and eating healthy. that's the trick. to lose weight you need to be in a caloric deficit, but i would not recommend that for a long period of time bc you're body 1) adjusts to your low calorie intake & your metabolism slows down and 2) when you start eating more again you'll gain all the weight back again. it's really important to build and maintain muscle mass since having more muslce means you can eat more which is obvi great and you'll look and feel amazing. i'd recommend hasfit, they make awesome workout videos for losing fat and building muscle mass! good luck!

    Sometimes we need to change not physically but mentally...Even if I wearing makeup or wearing my best clothes or lose weight, it's help a little bit but it doesn't fix the problem. I'm still broken inside because your body it's not the problem but the way you see it. I think the best thing to do it's to accept yourself and not be self destructive. Be kind towards you and love yourself because nobody can love you like yourself.
    Stay heathly people.

    I just realized how everybody goes through different struggles and obstacles in life. I mean, I knew that but it really stuck out to me after watching this series. Alivia wants to lose weight (same) but what’s stopping her is her mindset and binge eating. It’s so much harder when you are struggling with that, but an addition of body image, social anxiety, depression, and more.

      Same thing here in Canada. American sizes are nuts. It’s easier to enjoy “junk” food in moderation when it’s in smaller sizes, but when all the sizes offered are large (even when they’re a “small”), it makes things more difficult. Even for those who don’t necessarily have health goals.

      Please please please do not torture yourself! I’m 15 and have done that for years. It does nothing good for yourself. Instead of focusing on losing weight, focus on living a healthier lifestyle. Eating less processed foods, drinking more water, being more active. The rest will fall into place. And celebrate the body you have at every stage! Just think of all the amazing things it does for you! You can move, think, breathe, see, talk, eat, and I’m sure you look amazing in clothes. You got this, I’m rooting for you!

    honestly what you said about putting the effort to at least dress well for finals, i couldn't agree more. Before i was really self conscious about myself and i was like how are all those girls so pretty and i'm not but i realized i was never putting the actual effort to make myself pretty like others did and i feel like when you dress up, do your make up and have a good hair day, it can bright up your day even if you have a lot of exams and just help to gain confidence. not like when i have messy hair and a natural face, i dont feel pretty, but it just help myself to see that i am a pretty woman and i shouldn't compare myself to someone else persona, life or attitude.

    This video is so much more inspirational than all the ones that just show a "perfect" image of glowup. No its not that simple. We struggle, we have temptations, sometimes we cheat. But thats whats called fighting. And when u get through it and reach your goals, youll feel better than ever. Youll be stronger than ever.
    Your glowup diaries are catching exactly this beauty of the whole process. Thank you♡

    A philosophy I love is that the clothes are the problem not your body. I’ve struggled with trying on clothes in the dressing room. And just trying to be positive about your body, and negative about the clothes. Well that’s what works for me! Also instead of being so negative will eating food try to better next time. Cause you know what you’re doing wrong don’t be so hard on your self and expect the followers (us) to be disappointed.

I am so unhappy with my lifestyle at this moment, i just feel numb and i don't want to do anything anymore. But i'm going to try, i promise. I can talk to my mum, or learn how to cook myself so i can make nice and healthy meals or i'm also going to do workouts (i already do them). This series motivated me so much, Thank you Alivia.

  • @chelseaahgase7168
    @chelseaahgase7168 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the best part about a glow up is watching yourself gradually gaining wisdom and a stronger mentality. When Alivia stated, "If thought can corrupt language, language can also corrupt thought," it makes you realize how vital positive words really are to develop an optimistic mindset. Our minds are our home. So often we fall victim to our own thoughts because we don't have the power to separate ourselves from the negativity. Which can ultimately conclude into negative actions. Kinda similar to when you call yourself "fat or ugly". Even though they're words, it impacts how you view yourself. Resulting in you not respecting your body for what it does (like keeping you alive on a day to day basis), but for how it "looks". Personally, I viewed myself like this for a long time. I tried to maintain an unrealistic image by maintaining an unrealistic diet that led me to binge eating. As of right now, I'm working on changing the way I look at things so the things I look at change. Nevertheless, I say all of this to remind you....yes...YOU....that you are a beautiful or handsome, kind, smart and worthy individual. You deserve to be loved by yourself. Remember, the environment we create is a reflection of our state of mind. So why not create a positive one :)

      To be honest, yes. I've been really stressing about how to moderate because I've been on such good track the last few weeks that I know if I indulge at all I'll undo all that work. I hate to think this way. I know it's ok to treat yourself but it's hard. It'll be ok. We've got this.

      @ambiebambie5867 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I normally just try to eat in moderation, but if your family cooks lots of good food (like mine) keep leftovers and meal prep over the week so you can eat food that you couldn’t on that day. Just make sure you balance it out with exercise and stuff like that.

Your videos are so authentic and honest, I can't express on how I love every & each of them. And you as well! You're so strong and dedicated to your happiness, and that just inspires me so much. Most of my days, I fail and I just want to give up. Just like you. But don't stop posting, because we are here with you in this tough route. I feel like you're a bigger sister to me!

    Alivia, you truly change lives, for the better, thank you, I can't say it enough, by the way the glimpse from the future episode is really dark and touching, I admire your honesty.
