I as going to say that the trail compliment melt down was obviously the biggest moment of the year, but then I remembered that Anna filmed herself using the winch for the anchor to climb back onto the Yacht during one of her back to back holidays and I giggled so I think that was my favourite
@jenn8459 about that - I feel like her ego was appeased when he said "I follow you," which is the reason she accepted the encouragement the first time, but she got angry about the woman who said "Good job getting out here" in part because she didn't mention knowing her as a celebrity. Also, didn't Anna say after that one that she didn't want to hear from anyone who wasn't a follower?
Just spent 20mins on the treadmill (walking at 5k/hr) and my body showed up! Would have been difficult if it hadn’t. Not sure what happens when your body says ‘nope, off you go but I’m staying in bed’.
@@justine8387oooh, yeah. I’ve had a chronic pain condition for decades, and while I can count on maybe one hand the number of times I’ve actually regretted a workout, I have had moments where my body was late to show up. But when it just ain’t there? Yeah, message received. It doesn’t do that often but when it does, it’s important to pay attention. ❤
My favourite 2024 Anna moment was when she gained ca. 40 lbs in a few days. A normal person would be in danger of dying, but Anna is always such a ✨miracle✨
34:02 as somebody who has temperature-induced asthma (both hot and cold), I can confirm that she *most likely* used it correctly. I add the caveat bc it is best to use it 10-15 minutes before physical activity for it to run thru your system, and to hold your breath with the medicine in your lungs as long as you can so you absorb it all, like how you use up the oxygen when you hold your breath before needing to breathe again. She only shows like 2 seconds of using it, so who knows if she did those things.
If the goal is to build muscle, lift first then cardio. And if you’re serious about lifting running isn’t really the way. Obviously, Anna doesn’t need to be worrying about either of these things. She needs to be in a pool and walking
It really bothers me that she does this performative athlete thing. I’m quite thin but I’m not strong & have chronic health issues. Why is she so ashamed to admit she’s currently in a “functional fitness” phase? I’m in my 50s but I go to senior classes b/c that’s my level. We talk about range of motion & activities like walking and swimming. Most ibrse people have to work really hard at this functional level until they have the range of motion & strength to begin the long road to “athlete.” You can’t just decide you’re an athlete & then become an instant runner. Also running isn’t a great functional exercise, unless you’re getting chased a lot irl. I just don’t understand why she ignores functional fitness completely & acts like she has to pretend to be a jock.
@@standdownrobots_ihaveoldgloryshe wants the appearance of being an athlete bc it’s cool, admirable, and aspirational, but she will do none of the work. She’s narcissistic, entitled and lazy. I’ve been working my ass off in the gym for years and am finally at a point where I feel comfortable telling people I do bodybuilding. Creating an athletic, fit physique is not easy for most people. It takes WORK, discipline, being coachable and a lot of humility. All attributes Anna doesn’t have for more than 15mins at a time. Keep at it! You’re taking care of your body in a sustainable manner that is honoring where you are. Anna is a reminder of everything we don’t want to be, it’s really quite fascinating.
So true. I’ve had fibromyalgia for almost 30 years and it does suck. We do have to listen to our bodies and I know for myself that smiling is not going to do anything for me when I’m exhausted and in pain and can’t think straight. Anna wants to show us how to be positive but I’m remembering her pre-surgery videos. She wasn’t smiling. Just crying.
I would love to see you do a break down on her vacation storylines. They are so drastically different than what has been happening with her recently. The travel stuff were meant to be high production, aspirational while also mixing in over coming the odds/proving the “biggums” can do all the things too yada yada (obviously some of them were more successful at doing this than others) but then we run straight into the lipadema journey and suddenly everything is so impossibly hard. How does half the year she goes on 5 vacations and does so many things and then the second half she spends on threads while bed rotting because she had some liposuction.
If running and lifting weights requires pain meds pre and post working out, Anna should be doing what everyone has been saying - only walking or swimming/water aerobics. What would make even more logical sense would be to properly calorie count and adjust her diet, with real wholefoods and not all that processed protein crap.
I do get the feeling a lot of the flak Anna gets is because of the cumulative effect. Individually each thing is trivial and might pass unnoticed in anyone else, but her repeating patterns irritate us so that we're ready to pick holes in everything she shows us...
Wait I must've missed something.. It was ok for the " Adonis " to say something, but not another woman... Ok Anna.... She truly doesn't understand human interaction unless it's transactional
As someone who is probably about at Anna’s fitness level, I completely agree - it is simply not possible. I’m underweight but we’re both very un-fit, and I have participated in a few fun run fundraisers (terrible fundraiser btw, most end up breaking even, only really big ones deliver good ROI)…I and the other participants like me can get a decent pace going- for a very short time- but we are not even close to that for most of the run. My friends who run seriously & maintain a steady pace, even those who are at the overweight/obese tipping point, spend hours in the gym and on the pavement every week, even to be “meh” competitively & not lose weight - it’s a major commitment in one’s lifestyle tbh. Running isn’t really a great choice for functional fitness anyway, some people seem to really crave it emotionally (I did train properly once for a 5k, I kind of get it), but no fitness professional recommends it for the un-fit. This isn’t 1983. I don’t need knee surgery, PT, etc so I stopped even trying to trail run, which is the most fun type of running imo, since I’m 54 & why mess up the one joint system in my body that works fine?? 😂 now i walk and forage…maybe getting a bike next summer…no running *.*
@@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory I'm around 250lbs having lost almost 90 and have been running regularly for around 5 months. Anna is so dishonest with what she says she has done on her "runs" as far as time and distance go. At her size just walking a mile is an achievement but she is desperate to be seen as a runner and is literally trying to run before she can (comfortably) walk.
Omg NEVER EVER swallow advil without at least 8 oz of water. You'll burn a hole in your esophagus. And that is sooo painful. Trust me, I learned the hardway😂
The whole thing is really odd, I agree. I think she claims to know the illness she's having a flare up of, and that's either lymphedema or Hashimoto's, I *think.* What she doesn't know the cause of is what factor made that illness flare up, I think. So, the symptom is gaining 30-40 lbs water weight in 1-2 days. I still think it's so weird how vague she is, and I think it has to do w/: claiming an illness makes her followers seem like jerks to blame her for her weight or for anything, she hopes.
It's very odd. I've had Hashimoto's for 20 years. I've never had a "flare up," and my endocrinologist has never spoken of them, either. Hashimoto's doesn't cause the major weight gain most would like to believe.
@@ElderMillenial-x7b That's awesome you haven't had a flare up. I have lupus, and I have around two of them a month. For me, it feels like the flu-- lots of nausea, vomiting, throbbing pain, and fatigue. Sometimes, I don't know the cause. However, I believe much of it is due to high stress, lack of sleep and (embarrassing to admit) forgetting to eat. There is an association with lupus and weight gain due to steroid use. My endocrinologist has never prescribed a steroid and I am pretty small to begin with, so thankfully, I do not worry about stress on my joints. However, I cannot blame anyone or anything for my flare ups other than myself because I am in control of these things. Anna's life habits are terrible, especially her food choices. It drives me crazy when she says she's done everything she can because she is showing us the evidence that this is blatantly false. I don't know much of Hashimoto's. I thought there was a connection between the disease and hypothyroidism, which could then result in weight gain? Of course, people respond differently. My father has hypothyroidism and is extremely thin. I also know someone with Hashimoto's and she is tiny. Anyway, I hope you are doing well!
I feel like an immersion blender is one of those kitchen gadgets that is actually game changing. I never thought about it until I had one, but now I use it multiple times a week and I will never not own one again.
@11:30- jogging before lifting= warmup+ pushing into the anabolic phase (using up available blood glucose) which takes about 25-ish min for a healthy individual. Jogging/cardio AFTER lifting= optimized fat loss
Perfect timing TBA! Thanks for posting! I'm about to hop into the tub for my daily bubble bath & cigarette to unwind. I was just going through your Glitter & lazers playlist realizing I'd watched everything. Kismet! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
@@ladyB59 Exactly why i do it!! Makes me feel elegant & European lol. & I find that rarely is a day so awful it can't be fixed by a relaxing soak & smoke
From my understanding, it is advised to use rescue inhalers proactively. If you play a sport and you know your asthma is going to act up during practice, you should use it before practice and not wait until you are struggling to breathe. (Then of course if you need it during practice you can as well if that's what the prescription says).
As someone who lives in Texas I can confirm that we do get freezing temperatures. Maybe not like northern states on a regular basis...but we do have mornings and nights in the 20s. Texas is a big state and we run the gambit on weather. She is in Austin which is not as cold as where I am. They have temps in the 30s and 40s on occasion. Not that anyone may care...just giving info. Blessings
Just wanted to say I absolutely care and am thankful you shared! I have never left the East Coast. Not yet. Live in NYC. I would not have expected you to get chilly weather like that! Now I know! Have a Healthy Happy New Year!!❤❤
@@starkman78 oh yes, I remember that - and yet he keeps getting voted in??? But politics aside, it was a striking illustration of how Texas can kill you with cold, as well as heat. Ignoring all the human factors, it still sounds like an uncomfortable place to live...
Anna is so clearly just walking, in the video of her 'running,' where we see from her hand's perspectives down to her little scuttling feet. Zero bend in the knees happening while running. Also, I'm not a medical expert, but I'm currently in school learning medical coding & billing, and w/ healthcare, finding the cause of your ills is the key to fixing the problem. I find it so strange how vague she is, and also, gaining 30-40 lbs of water weight over the course of a day or two sounds very extreme and like you'd need to go to the ER.
Hi! I have sports induced asthma, and I was always instructed that it was best to use your inhaler before exercise. That way you don’t end up having an attack in the middle of the workout. I personally find I get a lot less winded if I time my inhaler before working out. It also depends on the workout for me and if it’s outside vs inside etc. For example, I can swim laps pretty easily without my inhaler because the pool is so humid. But doing any intense running without a significant rest break will get me winded and potentially trigger and attack. Sometimes I can get it under control before it gets too severe, it kinda just depends haha
I have lupus and Sjogren's. There is an association between lupus and multiple other problems in the body. All the things Anna mentioned, and with which she was annoyed about, exacerbate symptoms, e.g., stress, poor sleep and eating inflammatory foods. It's fact-based science. When people make suggestions to me, I know they are trying to help. Sometimes, they bring up points I may not have thought about or I am so busy with life stuff that I diminish the importance of self care. I sometimes need reminders to slow down and take care of myself. Most of the time, people are coming from a place of empathy and concern and I appreciate that. Anna gravitates toward quick fixes and external modifications to counter her bad habits and becomes angry and defensive when people point this out. She needs to reframe how she processes information. I do not have the patience for her theatrics when I see her consume gross amounts of sugar, especially.
🕰️ My favorite Glitter and Lazers moment was when she complained about just needing “some me time,” on her tenth cruise or whatever. So relatable! 🙃🤣 I think my main criticism of Anna is that she wants to be an inspiration without earning it. I think if she learned a little humility she would do a lot better… don’t think it’s going to happen though.
"I have a lot on my plate so cooking seemed like a waste of time" I'm sorry, what do you have on your plate? You're single and childless and don't even have a real job. This woman probably has more free time than 99% of people on the planet 🤦🏻♀️
I made a gingerbread doghouse (much smaller than a house) and it was dramatic and traumatizing keeping the thing upright and making it look half decent. So I can relate to her on that. 😂😂
I brought it before, but it may have gotten lost in the comments. I’m just wondering why both she and Amber Lynn seems so incredibly immature for their age and I’m wondering that maybe the food addiction is like alcohol or drug addiction where you stop maturing when you are deep in your addiction? I’ve never heard anybody talk about this, but both of them have taste like 14-year-olds And talk about themselves like they’re 14 as well. There’s no such thing as a 36 year-old protein girly and a 42 year-old girly pop. And both of them are so unsophisticated in their taste and so immature squealing over no kitty cat pictures and wearing giant version of toddler clothes. I’m wondering what the source of the lack of maturity is whether they had shitty childhood or whether they stopped developing because they became addicted
17:34 "... and then eats 1/4th of a quiche as a serving." To be fair: when I make something like a quiche, we generally also end up eating about 1/4th each. But it always depends on how large and how thick the quiche is. And what exactly is in there. I've recently made a pumpkin quiche where the filling was not just eggs and cheese but included also about 2 lbs of pumpkin. What I find weird with Anna's recipes is that they were always (at least for the quiche, the "lasagna" and the potato gratin thingy) for 8 servings. Who wants a recipe for *8 servings*? I am very used to looking up recipes and I don't remember ever seeing one for 8 servings. 4 is very common, but 8? And she did make 2 quiches in that recipe. I did the calorie and makro count on the three recipes mentioned above and my guess is that it is a trick to keep the calories per serving between 400 and 600.
@@JonéeLillard Nothing wrong with that. It's just weird that she never mentions in the video that she cooks for someone else but herself - or shows what storage containers she puts them in to cool/freeze them. Also, I'd say that those recipes she is showing are not the best for meal prepping IMO. At least if you want to reheat in a microwave. It's not easy to get a slice of quiche evenly reheated in the microwave. That works a lot better with food that you can stir.
The snack basket was late in 2023. Before the Target video. She mentions the chicken and waffle protein chips in the snack video and says how they are her favorite and hard to get - and in the Target video, she finds them in the store and gets excited. The cooking videos are her continuing the protein saga - probably after people kept telling her that this stuff was garbage and she should cook and eat some real food...
I’m a nurse and she is probably using an albuterol inhaler which is a rescue inhaler and should be used after an asthma attack. It works to open up the airways because it has a vasodilation effect. You shouldn’t use it before because you need it to work after when you are wheezing and can’t breathe 🤷♀️
My son is asthmatic and his pulmonologist advised to use his rescue 15 mins before gym class or moderate exercise as a precaution. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8542164/
We don’t have black ones in the UK, our attack ones are short like that one and light blue. Be interesting to know what the black one is for. I also have a bright pink fostair one for every day. But yeah you only take that one Anna looks like she has when you start wheezing. 🤔🤔
Yikes at her running Adonis story that left me filled with the lingering tendrils of what the actual fuck??? She's describing a massively negative mindset some may dismiss as having a bad day, but I disagree; that is a big goddamned rock to carry around, and it won't get resolved with a couple times of telling yourself to lighten up, or reading some Erma Bombeck. ime this mindset is part of very problematic health issues that need to be taken seriously.
Interesting this might be only substitute noodle I could get my husband to eat 😂 I got a spiraler and make zucchini noddles and my sons were not too impressed with them.
Enjoyed this round-up. Nice to see everything in sequence, with the context of knowing what happened later. Only trouble with such a wide-ranging review is I have so many thoughts! About the inhaler: in the decades I've had asthma, medicine regimes, inhalers and techniques have changed quite a bit. I must have been through about ten different protocols before my current one - and I still don't recognise the black inhaler! (Might be a US colour difference, though.) I definitely take a preventative dose before going out for a run; mine is set off by either cold or exercise or both... My favourite Anna content is the fitness arcs. And I agree, she and April are definitely the least problematic of the herd. Lookingvforward to the next installment!
The comment about smiling reminded me of the time when the management of the call center I worked at during college gave all of us mirrors that had the text “Smile! The Customer can hear it!” Ugh, that did not encourage us to smile at all.
8:56 did she swallow pills without a liquid? I did that once with a 600mg ibuprofen and it got stuck in my throat. I started choking and it felt like sandpaper sliding down my esophagus until I could drink some water. Never again.
So I used to weigh almost 300 pounds and I lost over 150 through confronting my emotional eating, changing my nutrition and exercise. What I can tell you is whenever I exercise I never want to take a nap. I get so much energy from exercising. No matter what size I am, even when I was big, it made me feel great. This is why I don’t think she necessarily does the workouts she says she does when she says she has to have a nap afterwards. If I was as tall as her, I’d have been 500 pounds. It’s all relative.😊
Her expecting everything to be perfect and easy without any effort will always remind me of the cheerleading she tried out for. We didn’t have cheer in the UK but I did gymnastics and the amount of time and effort you put into conditioning and learning and practicing for 1 skill is 😳😳😳 That Anna think she can just show up to everything and think she is the perfect person for it is unbelievable!!!!
I am from TEXAS! I can tell you that it can get absolutely freezing! I mean cold to the bone girl! What makes it a nightmare is the WIND! HOLY COW! Now you know.
Your right weight loss isn’t hard since Jan 7- now I’ve dropped 35kg (77lbs), 84-49kg, by calorie counting. A kg of fat is 7700kcal, so you burn 1100kcal more than you eat that’s a kg down. Honestly people like Anna need to focus on food and portion control before doing these exercise workouts as she’s not burning enough to justify eating the amount she eats plus her joints must be screaming when she’s running. Weight loss is 95% food 5% exercise. She clearly has money so she can hire a dietitian to teach her about portion control and focus on food quality. Her kitchen always looks like something out of a magazine doesn’t look used which shows most of her diet consists of take away food.
All the exercise means nothing if you aren't looking at your diet. Your just stressing your poor joints and destroying precious cartilage . I understand because i used to work out hard. Like 2 hours step classes, aerobics and weights. I didn't lose a pound! It wasn't until i cracked down and went on a diet that the weight vanished. When it happened I thought " Wow all those years wasted trying so hard in the wrong area" Now i just watch what i eat and do yoga here and there and have never been thinner.
The "itchy butthole" thing with pre workout is from the Beta Alanine. To me it doesn't really feel like itchy, it feels more like pins and needles and you get it mostly in your face and hands than your butthole. I hate it, don't use pre workout cos of it. Just have a cup of coffee beforehand and some dextrose, just as effective.
So yes Texas is hot, however I live in east Texas and it gets below freezing fairly often, and I think since we have higher humidity it feels colder. At least that’s what my father in law from upper Michigan tells me. I have no idea how cold Austin gets.
You keep saying “it’s Texas” when Anna talks about the weather, but temps in Austin dip below 30 degrees during the winter. Is that not winter? Cold? Freezing?
Lol ill eat 1/4 a quiche but its crustless and has eggs, egg whites, lean protien and veggies so itslike 200 calories per quarter. And I cook and meal prep all the time plus I also run a home bakery. My kitchen is usually pretty clean and organized but I also spend an inordinate amount of time doing dishes and wiping down countertops!
Amazing how much more baked goods I can eat when I make them myself. Oh, the wonders of not loading cups of sugar into crap just to hide the preservative flavor 😊
I want to see an actual time elapsed video of her workouts. I think truly she is spending a few moments in movement while filming and that is that. Also, maybe a 'what i eat in a day' video would be nice also. How a person can remain 500 pounds while getting surgery and doing workouts is beyond me...unless her food intake is wildly out of control.
I worked with someone whose mother had passed away in front of them from a heart attack when they were very young. Where that joke isn’t triggering for me, that joke would 100% be triggering for them. I don’t like Costco’s snacks because even before dietary changes, I was picky. So that wouldn’t be triggering for me. For me personally, I have boat trauma. I’m not going to react to heart attacks or Costco’s, but make a joke that is similar to the trauma I experienced on the boat, and I’m going to be triggered. She needs to get a grip. Some people are going to find you funny. Some people aren’t. Apologize when you make a joke in poor taste. It’s really easy.
@TinyBlueAnthropologist True. It doesn't exactly explain the wonky numbers, but I am curious what her comment numbers would look like if she didn't heavily curate. I think they'd be a lot higher. At least on her semi recent videos.
21:55 I can't find this recipe, but I found one with 4 eggs and 5oz of chicken and it's described as 8 serves, so this may be like 16... lunch for two weeks
Cold is my asthmas biggest trigger. If I took it before and then again if I get wheezy or have an attack and then had to use it again it would be too much. I have those tests where they load you up at the doctors and test your breathing!🤣🤣🤣 The shakiness from that is so uncomfortable and violent. It’s like “anything is poison in the right dosage” thing.
Dammit! I’m so sad! I’ve been hyper focused on getting out of debt and fell off the health train and honestly….Anna is probably doing more than me in reality
Please be proud of yourself for getting out of debt. Getting that weight off your mind is more important than lifting one off the floor. As for Anna doing more, I have yet to be convinced that she carries on doing anything at all when the camera is off.
The only content I’m interested in watching from her is fashion. She’s not in expert in health and exercise. She complains constantly when she travels. I only care about the fashion because it’s harmless. But I can tell when there’s something off about the garment rather than she didn’t buy the right size. Also, when she was making the potatoes… I was recently reminded of when Joe from Impractical Jokers did “Scoop-ski Potatoes!” That would 100% be the recipe for Scoop-Ski Potatoes.
Cold induced asthma is a thing. It can happen when leaving a warm environment and stepping into frigid air. Sometimes the airways will clench and tighten. My doctor recommends taking a shot of the inhaler before stepping outside in winter and/or before exercising as a preventative action.
@@thelongmoreauMe too!!!!! I was told by work I didn’t need a mask because asthmatics were exempt (I work in store and a warehouse) but it actually helped so much especially in the freezing warehouse that the air around my face was nice and warm!
Most Fitbits don't have the GPS function. Which is why to exercise superhuman control to not buy an Apple Watch. Because aiI won't pay for and use Apple products.
All Anna has to do is say “it’s probs my autoimmune disorder”. Everything has to be so weirdly combative with her. And I kind of relate to the gingerbread house debacle. I love crafting but I get so excited to do certain parts that I find myself rushing through the “structural” parts and end up w a totally effed project lol. With the gingerbread house I’d be absolutely STOKED to decorate but I could see myself not taking my time with the construction part and ending up with a collapsed house. But a nicely decorated one lmao 😂😂
So we got 3 months of fake running, 3 months of vacations/cruises, 3 months of Lipedema, and then 3 months of sweaters lol
lol. The most accurate breakdown of her life. Lol
A real slow boring year
Good point!

I would love to see you do a break down on her vacation storylines. They are so drastically different than what has been happening with her recently. The travel stuff were meant to be high production, aspirational while also mixing in over coming the odds/proving the “biggums” can do all the things too yada yada (obviously some of them were more successful at doing this than others) but then we run straight into the lipadema journey and suddenly everything is so impossibly hard. How does half the year she goes on 5 vacations and does so many things and then the second half she spends on threads while bed rotting because she had some liposuction.
If running and lifting weights requires pain meds pre and post working out, Anna should be doing what everyone has been saying - only walking or swimming/water aerobics. What would make even more logical sense would be to properly calorie count and adjust her diet, with real wholefoods and not all that processed protein crap.
@xghoulishgalx yeah, she's going to wreck her kidneys with that kind of dosing
I do get the feeling a lot of the flak Anna gets is because of the cumulative effect.
Individually each thing is trivial and might pass unnoticed in anyone else, but her repeating patterns irritate us so that we're ready to pick holes in everything she shows us...
Good point
To be fair, some of the stuff she's done has been straight up infuriating and/or shady...
:-)
Wait I must've missed something.. It was ok for the " Adonis " to say something, but not another woman... Ok Anna.... She truly doesn't understand human interaction unless it's transactional
@kitchenwitch6901 well, he did also start off with "I follow you," i.e. throwing a bone to her ego
I don't believe this man exists. What straight man is unironically following a 500lb fashion vlogger?
There is no way she kept up the pace she had when she ran past the camera for a full 2 miles. For her that was pretty much a flat out sprint.
Exactly
As someone who is probably about at Anna’s fitness level, I completely agree - it is simply not possible. I’m underweight but we’re both very un-fit, and I have participated in a few fun run fundraisers (terrible fundraiser btw, most end up breaking even, only really big ones deliver good ROI)…I and the other participants like me can get a decent pace going- for a very short time- but we are not even close to that for most of the run. My friends who run seriously & maintain a steady pace, even those who are at the overweight/obese tipping point, spend hours in the gym and on the pavement every week, even to be “meh” competitively & not lose weight - it’s a major commitment in one’s lifestyle tbh. Running isn’t really a great choice for functional fitness anyway, some people seem to really crave it emotionally (I did train properly once for a 5k, I kind of get it), but no fitness professional recommends it for the un-fit. This isn’t 1983. I don’t need knee surgery, PT, etc so I stopped even trying to trail run, which is the most fun type of running imo, since I’m 54 & why mess up the one joint system in my body that works fine?? 😂 now i walk and forage…maybe getting a bike next summer…no running *.*
@@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory I'm around 250lbs having lost almost 90 and have been running regularly for around 5 months. Anna is so dishonest with what she says she has done on her "runs" as far as time and distance go. At her size just walking a mile is an achievement but she is desperate to be seen as a runner and is literally trying to run before she can (comfortably) walk.
Omg NEVER EVER swallow advil without at least 8 oz of water. You'll burn a hole in your esophagus. And that is sooo painful. Trust me, I learned the hardway😂
Omg that sounds terrifying hope ur okay now
And with food in your stomach!
Oh dang. Good to know. That sounds brutal
Same. I had a painful burn in my esophagus after acting a fool and swallowing ibuprofen without water.
Yikes
If someone doesn't know the cause, how can they know they're having a flare up?
(Not rhetorical)
The whole thing is really odd, I agree. I think she claims to know the illness she's having a flare up of, and that's either lymphedema or Hashimoto's, I *think.* What she doesn't know the cause of is what factor made that illness flare up, I think. So, the symptom is gaining 30-40 lbs water weight in 1-2 days. I still think it's so weird how vague she is, and I think it has to do w/: claiming an illness makes her followers seem like jerks to blame her for her weight or for anything, she hopes.
It's very odd. I've had Hashimoto's for 20 years. I've never had a "flare up," and my endocrinologist has never spoken of them, either. Hashimoto's doesn't cause the major weight gain most would like to believe.
@@ElderMillenial-x7b That's awesome you haven't had a flare up. I have lupus, and I have around two of them a month. For me, it feels like the flu-- lots of nausea, vomiting, throbbing pain, and fatigue. Sometimes, I don't know the cause. However, I believe much of it is due to high stress, lack of sleep and (embarrassing to admit) forgetting to eat. There is an association with lupus and weight gain due to steroid use. My endocrinologist has never prescribed a steroid and I am pretty small to begin with, so thankfully, I do not worry about stress on my joints. However, I cannot blame anyone or anything for my flare ups other than myself because I am in control of these things. Anna's life habits are terrible, especially her food choices. It drives me crazy when she says she's done everything she can because she is showing us the evidence that this is blatantly false.
I don't know much of Hashimoto's. I thought there was a connection between the disease and hypothyroidism, which could then result in weight gain? Of course, people respond differently. My father has hypothyroidism and is extremely thin. I also know someone with Hashimoto's and she is tiny. Anyway, I hope you are doing well!
I feel like an immersion blender is one of those kitchen gadgets that is actually game changing. I never thought about it until I had one, but now I use it multiple times a week and I will never not own one again.
Me too! I got one, I use it all the time, love it. Thought it would be useless junk.
Ikr? I miss mine
@11:30- jogging before lifting= warmup+ pushing into the anabolic phase (using up available blood glucose) which takes about 25-ish min for a healthy individual.
Jogging/cardio AFTER lifting= optimized fat loss
Interesting 🤔
She is losing her damn mind on her Threads this week. Just the most random, off-the-wall things.
Merry Holiday Ms. Tiny Blue.
You too!
Perfect timing TBA! Thanks for posting! I'm about to hop into the tub for my daily bubble bath & cigarette to unwind. I was just going through your Glitter & lazers playlist realizing I'd watched everything. Kismet! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
I don't know why but that made me laugh at the image, so decadent and no effs given 😂😂😂🎉🎉
@@ladyB59 Exactly why i do it!! Makes me feel elegant & European lol. & I find that rarely is a day so awful it can't be fixed by a relaxing soak & smoke
I don’t smoke or take bubble baths, but suddenly that’s all I want to do today. 😂
Enjoy your bubble bath!
From my understanding, it is advised to use rescue inhalers proactively. If you play a sport and you know your asthma is going to act up during practice, you should use it before practice and not wait until you are struggling to breathe. (Then of course if you need it during practice you can as well if that's what the prescription says).
As someone who lives in Texas I can confirm that we do get freezing temperatures. Maybe not like northern states on a regular basis...but we do have mornings and nights in the 20s. Texas is a big state and we run the gambit on weather. She is in Austin which is not as cold as where I am. They have temps in the 30s and 40s on occasion. Not that anyone may care...just giving info. Blessings
Hi from DFW!
Came to say this
That's colder than our Finnish winters a lot of the time 😮 man, the US is crazy lol
Just wanted to say I absolutely care and am thankful you shared! I have never left the East Coast. Not yet. Live in NYC. I would not have expected you to get chilly weather like that! Now I know! Have a Healthy Happy New Year!!❤❤
@@AntoniaG1991 20 Fahrenheit is -7 Celsius, I would not call that cold by Finnish winter standards
Isn't Texas where people succumbed to the cold during a winter powercut, while their senator went to Cancun to avoid the weather?
I would not be surprised
@TinyBlueAnthropologist the surprising bit was how severe the weather was! I certainly never realised till then how harsh their winters could be...
That’s exactly what happened. And one of his arch nemeses actually raised money to help. 🤨
@@starkman78 oh yes, I remember that - and yet he keeps getting voted in???
But politics aside, it was a striking illustration of how Texas can kill you with cold, as well as heat. Ignoring all the human factors, it still sounds like an uncomfortable place to live...
You cannot eat that much cheese and eggs and meat and OIL and expect to lose weight. That is an absolute TON of fat.
Not to mention salt too, she went pretty heavy-handed on those seasonings 🫤
Ohhh! I love the concept of that video. You look a million times better than your last couples pf video. Hope you are doing well
Anna is so clearly just walking, in the video of her 'running,' where we see from her hand's perspectives down to her little scuttling feet. Zero bend in the knees happening while running.
Also, I'm not a medical expert, but I'm currently in school learning medical coding & billing, and w/ healthcare, finding the cause of your ills is the key to fixing the problem. I find it so strange how vague she is, and also, gaining 30-40 lbs of water weight over the course of a day or two sounds very extreme and like you'd need to go to the ER.
Keep in.mind, she can be hyperbolic and makes crap up
Running is basically hopping very quickly from one foot to the other.
Wouldn't that be skipping? I tend think of running as a series of leaps
She can't jump either
The "just the way I like it" always kills me. 😄 And doesn't even make sense. Obviously you like it, you made it. Huh??
Hi! I have sports induced asthma, and I was always instructed that it was best to use your inhaler before exercise. That way you don’t end up having an attack in the middle of the workout. I personally find I get a lot less winded if I time my inhaler before working out. It also depends on the workout for me and if it’s outside vs inside etc. For example, I can swim laps pretty easily without my inhaler because the pool is so humid. But doing any intense running without a significant rest break will get me winded and potentially trigger and attack. Sometimes I can get it under control before it gets too severe, it kinda just depends haha
I'm learning a lot about inhalers in the comments
I have lupus and Sjogren's. There is an association between lupus and multiple other problems in the body. All the things Anna mentioned, and with which she was annoyed about, exacerbate symptoms, e.g., stress, poor sleep and eating inflammatory foods. It's fact-based science. When people make suggestions to me, I know they are trying to help. Sometimes, they bring up points I may not have thought about or I am so busy with life stuff that I diminish the importance of self care. I sometimes need reminders to slow down and take care of myself. Most of the time, people are coming from a place of empathy and concern and I appreciate that. Anna gravitates toward quick fixes and external modifications to counter her bad habits and becomes angry and defensive when people point this out. She needs to reframe how she processes information. I do not have the patience for her theatrics when I see her consume gross amounts of sugar, especially.
26:00 it's called egocentric thinking, and it's very normal when you are a toddler, not when you are 40.
Ah, thank you!
@TinyBlueAnthropologist thank you. I love your channel, and your wisdom. You made my year!
🕰️ My favorite Glitter and Lazers moment was when she complained about just needing “some me time,” on her tenth cruise or whatever. So relatable! 🙃🤣
I think my main criticism of Anna is that she wants to be an inspiration without earning it. I think if she learned a little humility she would do a lot better… don’t think it’s going to happen though.
That’s the thing, in her mind she has a ton of humility, she’s a super relatable girlboss who has overcome so much adversity of course!
what on Earth is she inspiring anyone to do other than just eat themselves to death?
"I have a lot on my plate so cooking seemed like a waste of time"
I'm sorry, what do you have on your plate? You're single and childless and don't even have a real job. This woman probably has more free time than 99% of people on the planet 🤦🏻♀️
I made a gingerbread doghouse (much smaller than a house) and it was dramatic and traumatizing keeping the thing upright and making it look half decent. So I can relate to her on that. 😂😂
Thank you for sharing your trauma. Gave me a giggle! ❤
I normally just give up after trying to cement the walls together. Mine never end up decorated
I brought it before, but it may have gotten lost in the comments. I’m just wondering why both she and Amber Lynn seems so incredibly immature for their age and I’m wondering that maybe the food addiction is like alcohol or drug addiction where you stop maturing when you are deep in your addiction? I’ve never heard anybody talk about this, but both of them have taste like 14-year-olds And talk about themselves like they’re 14 as well. There’s no such thing as a 36 year-old protein girly and a 42 year-old girly pop. And both of them are so unsophisticated in their taste and so immature squealing over no kitty cat pictures and wearing giant version of toddler clothes. I’m wondering what the source of the lack of maturity is whether they had shitty childhood or whether they stopped developing because they became addicted
I mean I can't say anything for sure, just my opinion, but I think they are all like this because of arrested development and shitty childhoods.
Love that Im closing the year out with you, Tiny Blue😊 Thank you for calling out Anna in such an astute and humorous way🖤
Thanks!
Thank you!
⌚⌚⌚ I loved snack basket but I also just love Anna convincing herself that shuffling her arms = running.
17:34 "... and then eats 1/4th of a quiche as a serving."
To be fair: when I make something like a quiche, we generally also end up eating about 1/4th each. But it always depends on how large and how thick the quiche is. And what exactly is in there. I've recently made a pumpkin quiche where the filling was not just eggs and cheese but included also about 2 lbs of pumpkin.
What I find weird with Anna's recipes is that they were always (at least for the quiche, the "lasagna" and the potato gratin thingy) for 8 servings. Who wants a recipe for *8 servings*? I am very used to looking up recipes and I don't remember ever seeing one for 8 servings. 4 is very common, but 8? And she did make 2 quiches in that recipe.
I did the calorie and makro count on the three recipes mentioned above and my guess is that it is a trick to keep the calories per serving between 400 and 600.
It might be something where they're adjusting the serving size to spit out the calories they want.
@pegasos1986 Who wants a recipe for 8 servings? People who batch-cook and freeze portions or who cook for more than one, perhaps.
@@JonéeLillard Nothing wrong with that. It's just weird that she never mentions in the video that she cooks for someone else but herself - or shows what storage containers she puts them in to cool/freeze them.
Also, I'd say that those recipes she is showing are not the best for meal prepping IMO. At least if you want to reheat in a microwave. It's not easy to get a slice of quiche evenly reheated in the microwave. That works a lot better with food that you can stir.
That sounds good thb
The snack basket was late in 2023. Before the Target video.
She mentions the chicken and waffle protein chips in the snack video and says how they are her favorite and hard to get - and in the Target video, she finds them in the store and gets excited.
The cooking videos are her continuing the protein saga - probably after people kept telling her that this stuff was garbage and she should cook and eat some real food...
That's right!
As someone with a dairy allergy, just watching Anna's cooking videos gave me hives.
⏰️ I can't wait for the next installment
I’d forgotten how much I hated her “just the way I like it”. Not everything has to be just the way someone likes it.🙄🙄🙄🙄
ikr, i had repressed that memory too lol
I’m a nurse and she is probably using an albuterol inhaler which is a rescue inhaler and should be used after an asthma attack. It works to open up the airways because it has a vasodilation effect. You shouldn’t use it before because you need it to work after when you are wheezing and can’t breathe 🤷♀️
Interesting, also not surprised she's using it incorrectly
My son is asthmatic and his pulmonologist advised to use his rescue 15 mins before gym class or moderate exercise as a precaution.
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8542164/
We don’t have black ones in the UK, our attack ones are short like that one and light blue. Be interesting to know what the black one is for. I also have a bright pink fostair one for every day. But yeah you only take that one Anna looks like she has when you start wheezing. 🤔🤔
@@piperjaycie There are charts of the different asthma medications in the doctors office. I'm in Canada and have never seen a black one either.
yeah I usually take my puffer before I workout. It generally helps
This was a great year wrap-up! Always appreciate your analytical criticism. Happy New Year! 💫
Cheers to 2025!
Yikes at her running Adonis story that left me filled with the lingering tendrils of what the actual fuck??? She's describing a massively negative mindset some may dismiss as having a bad day, but I disagree; that is a big goddamned rock to carry around, and it won't get resolved with a couple times of telling yourself to lighten up, or reading some Erma Bombeck. ime this mindset is part of very problematic health issues that need to be taken seriously.
My favorite noodle substitute is meat noodles. Press Ground meat into baking sheet, Bake 300° until Browned
Cut into noodle sheets ❤
lol, sounds weird.
Interesting this might be only substitute noodle I could get my husband to eat 😂
I got a spiraler and make zucchini noddles and my sons were not too impressed with them.
Enjoyed this round-up. Nice to see everything in sequence, with the context of knowing what happened later.
Only trouble with such a wide-ranging review is I have so many thoughts!
About the inhaler: in the decades I've had asthma, medicine regimes, inhalers and techniques have changed quite a bit. I must have been through about ten different protocols before my current one - and I still don't recognise the black inhaler! (Might be a US colour difference, though.)
I definitely take a preventative dose before going out for a run; mine is set off by either cold or exercise or both...
My favourite Anna content is the fitness arcs. And I agree, she and April are definitely the least problematic of the herd.
Lookingvforward to the next installment!
The comment about smiling reminded me of the time when the management of the call center I worked at during college gave all of us mirrors that had the text “Smile! The Customer can hear it!” Ugh, that did not encourage us to smile at all.
Imagine if she had kept up with the weighted workouts from her first January post.
What fitness journey she is still 500 pounds?? I don't understand!😒
I will say she's not trying to lose weight... publicly
Clock face - waiting for Snackle Box which contained a day of calories in my world.
Everyone go away! Time to watch muh stories! ☕️
Is Anna an expert in everything ?! lol
Yes. She did it once, therefore she's an expert
You sound much better today! Glad you’re on the mend.
Yes! Thank you!
Lifting harder? Shouldn’t it be lift heavier? I don’t want to have a hard time lifting.
She does though. The struggle is half the story
The target video is in the 2023 bag. It was the video that began unraveling her success
8:56 did she swallow pills without a liquid? I did that once with a 600mg ibuprofen and it got stuck in my throat. I started choking and it felt like sandpaper sliding down my esophagus until I could drink some water. Never again.
Thank god! I was feeling the MIA lack of G&L uploads. Thank you 🙏 ❤
Cheesy potatoes as a diet food 😂😂😂😂 gurllll
Just the way I like it!
If she takes size 11 shoes (cf her “running” videos) she must be really tall.
@Louise-pe1un She's almost 6 feet tall
So I used to weigh almost 300 pounds and I lost over 150 through confronting my emotional eating, changing my nutrition and exercise. What I can tell you is whenever I exercise I never want to take a nap. I get so much energy from exercising. No matter what size I am, even when I was big, it made me feel great. This is why I don’t think she necessarily does the workouts she says she does when she says she has to have a nap afterwards. If I was as tall as her, I’d have been 500 pounds. It’s all relative.😊
Cold in Texas is different than other places. Anything lower than 60 is practically freezing
Lmfao omg I nearly choked when said she dehumanized me that was too funny.
Her expecting everything to be perfect and easy without any effort will always remind me of the cheerleading she tried out for. We didn’t have cheer in the UK but I did gymnastics and the amount of time and effort you put into conditioning and learning and practicing for 1 skill is 😳😳😳 That Anna think she can just show up to everything and think she is the perfect person for it is unbelievable!!!!
She doesn’t need any more fuel!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂
It’s compilation videos like this that truly highlight how much of a grift influencer culture is. Nothing is real, everything is an ad.
I am from TEXAS! I can tell you that it can get absolutely freezing! I mean cold to the bone girl!
What makes it a nightmare is the WIND! HOLY COW!
Now you know.
I'm learning about the wind. lol
Your right weight loss isn’t hard since Jan 7- now I’ve dropped 35kg (77lbs), 84-49kg, by calorie counting. A kg of fat is 7700kcal, so you burn 1100kcal more than you eat that’s a kg down. Honestly people like Anna need to focus on food and portion control before doing these exercise workouts as she’s not burning enough to justify eating the amount she eats plus her joints must be screaming when she’s running. Weight loss is 95% food 5% exercise. She clearly has money so she can hire a dietitian to teach her about portion control and focus on food quality. Her kitchen always looks like something out of a magazine doesn’t look used which shows most of her diet consists of take away food.
All the exercise means nothing if you aren't looking at your diet. Your just stressing your poor joints and destroying precious cartilage . I understand because i used to work out hard. Like 2 hours step classes, aerobics and weights. I didn't lose a pound! It wasn't until i cracked down and went on a diet that the weight vanished. When it happened I thought " Wow all those years wasted trying so hard in the wrong area"
Now i just watch what i eat and do yoga here and there and have never been thinner.
Exactly
The "itchy butthole" thing with pre workout is from the Beta Alanine. To me it doesn't really feel like itchy, it feels more like pins and needles and you get it mostly in your face and hands than your butthole. I hate it, don't use pre workout cos of it. Just have a cup of coffee beforehand and some dextrose, just as effective.
Good to know 😂
She needs a high protien, LOW fat diet. Protien keeps you satiated for longer.
Never seen cheese pie before
Cheese pile is amazing and not good for you...but delicious
@ then may I never be blessed by its presence
So yes Texas is hot, however I live in east Texas and it gets below freezing fairly often, and I think since we have higher humidity it feels colder. At least that’s what my father in law from upper Michigan tells me. I have no idea how cold Austin gets.
12:17 this Os my first set 😭😭 I can’t get over her typos
You keep saying “it’s Texas” when Anna talks about the weather, but temps in Austin dip below 30 degrees during the winter.
Is that not winter? Cold? Freezing?
I mostly kid. But I'm from colder parts. So yes it's technically freezing...but it's not -20 cold.
Why is she washing her face to go running? Is she not going to get sweaty? Wouldn’t it make more sense to wash it after she gets home from her run?
Lol ill eat 1/4 a quiche but its crustless and has eggs, egg whites, lean protien and veggies so itslike 200 calories per quarter. And I cook and meal prep all the time plus I also run a home bakery. My kitchen is usually pretty clean and organized but I also spend an inordinate amount of time doing dishes and wiping down countertops!
Amazing how much more baked goods I can eat when I make them myself. Oh, the wonders of not loading cups of sugar into crap just to hide the preservative flavor 😊
I want to see an actual time elapsed video of her workouts. I think truly she is spending a few moments in movement while filming and that is that. Also, maybe a 'what i eat in a day' video would be nice also. How a person can remain 500 pounds while getting surgery and doing workouts is beyond me...unless her food intake is wildly out of control.
I worked with someone whose mother had passed away in front of them from a heart attack when they were very young. Where that joke isn’t triggering for me, that joke would 100% be triggering for them. I don’t like Costco’s snacks because even before dietary changes, I was picky. So that wouldn’t be triggering for me. For me personally, I have boat trauma. I’m not going to react to heart attacks or Costco’s, but make a joke that is similar to the trauma I experienced on the boat, and I’m going to be triggered. She needs to get a grip. Some people are going to find you funny. Some people aren’t. Apologize when you make a joke in poor taste. It’s really easy.
Her comments may be low because she deletes so many of them and curates.
that's a lot of curation
@TinyBlueAnthropologist True. It doesn't exactly explain the wonky numbers, but I am curious what her comment numbers would look like if she didn't heavily curate. I think they'd be a lot higher. At least on her semi recent videos.
21:55 I can't find this recipe, but I found one with 4 eggs and 5oz of chicken and it's described as 8 serves, so this may be like 16... lunch for two weeks
I have asthma and yes the cold can sometimes bring on an attack. I would never use it before hand just in case something might happen.
Cold is my asthmas biggest trigger. If I took it before and then again if I get wheezy or have an attack and then had to use it again it would be too much. I have those tests where they load you up at the doctors and test your breathing!🤣🤣🤣 The shakiness from that is so uncomfortable and violent. It’s like “anything is poison in the right dosage” thing.
@piperjaycie I've been there and agree.
I love your attitude
⏰️ bagel gate really got me lol.
That’s an awesome relationship tip, asking do you want me to help or listen.
It helps a lot
Dammit! I’m so sad! I’ve been hyper focused on getting out of debt and fell off the health train and honestly….Anna is probably doing more than me in reality
Please be proud of yourself for getting out of debt. Getting that weight off your mind is more important than lifting one off the floor. As for Anna doing more, I have yet to be convinced that she carries on doing anything at all when the camera is off.
Hugs. You'll get back on track. Don't compare yourself to her, she's also got crap for health and it's going to cost her big in the future
Glad your sense of smell is back and you get enjoy slime scents again :)
Yeah, me too!
The only content I’m interested in watching from her is fashion. She’s not in expert in health and exercise. She complains constantly when she travels. I only care about the fashion because it’s harmless. But I can tell when there’s something off about the garment rather than she didn’t buy the right size. Also, when she was making the potatoes… I was recently reminded of when Joe from Impractical Jokers did “Scoop-ski Potatoes!” That would 100% be the recipe for Scoop-Ski Potatoes.
Cold induced asthma is a thing. It can happen when leaving a warm environment and stepping into frigid air. Sometimes the airways will clench and tighten. My doctor recommends taking a shot of the inhaler before stepping outside in winter and/or before exercising as a preventative action.
Thunderstorm asthma is a thing too
something I accidentally realised during 2020 is that wearing a mask outside helps with keeping your breath warm! made my asthma less uncomfortable
@@thelongmoreauMe too!!!!! I was told by work I didn’t need a mask because asthmatics were exempt (I work in store and a warehouse) but it actually helped so much especially in the freezing warehouse that the air around my face was nice and warm!
Most Fitbits don't have the GPS function. Which is why to exercise superhuman control to not buy an Apple Watch. Because aiI won't pay for and use Apple products.
All Anna has to do is say “it’s probs my autoimmune disorder”. Everything has to be so weirdly combative with her.
And I kind of relate to the gingerbread house debacle. I love crafting but I get so excited to do certain parts that I find myself rushing through the “structural” parts and end up w a totally effed project lol. With the gingerbread house I’d be absolutely STOKED to decorate but I could see myself not taking my time with the construction part and ending up with a collapsed house. But a nicely decorated one lmao 😂😂
