Yesss, she literally changed my whole perspective of food, working out, beauty standards etc. She did something my parents, therapists, doctors and me couldn’t do for years. Linda is REALLY changing lives ❤️
I am 15 right now, and when she talked to her younger, 15 year old self, it felt like she was talking to me. I just sat there with tears in my eyes, silently thanking her. But i don´t want to be silent: So, thank you, you made me not regretting what I just ate, you made me feel good. Thank you, you´re literally amazing, Linda
@@lindasunyt thank you so much for all youve done for everyone who watches your videos. you helped bring me out of such a dark spot and proved to me that my life is worth more then being skinny. you have truly changed my life, thank you so so much

I feel bad for Linda she didn’t have a Linda to get her through stuff. She had her but her didn’t care besides starving, working out and not socializing. Now we have Linda to help show us how to live life to the fullest. Love you happy late birthday lol.

I was literally crying the whole video. I'm just tired of hating my body, of feeling lonely and scared. I always feel like Linda's videos are like a warm hug.
Same. I'm just so tired and I was starting to be okay with me and then one day I ate lot food and I cried so much I was so worried. I had no idea what's happening with my body how do I go better from here how do I stop loving tasty beautiful food. How do that? I'm so tired of trying things to lose weight I'm just so tired
Daniela, sending out a big hug to you! This year has been a huge shift for me and I'm finally enjoying food and accepting myself. I hope and pray you will get there soon too ♥️
I felt this. I was the fat kid. Honestly I would've not care much, but school and people glances really fuck me up. From the extrovert and sassy toddler/little girl, I began socially awkward and insicure. I was sure no one want to be my friend. I lost a lot of weight when I hit puberty (I was 10, an early bloomer as well), but I had so much fat that I was still overweight and obviously at that age be beautiful and thin becomes a focal point in the life of a girl. I felt less than my friends, I knew no one would be interested in me. I lost 10 kg in a little more than a year, between 13 and 14. I don't think I had an eating disorder, but for sure a disorder eating and a shitty relationship with my body: I often skipped dinner and a cycle bike (is the name right?) became my best friend. Needless to say that loosing weight didn't change much for me, because something had to change inside. I lived with the fear of gaining back the kg for years, and my weight fluctuates as is normal in your teenage years. At some point gaining weight became more difficult: I could literally eat everything I wanted by the end of high school and that probably healed a bit my relationship with food. But loving myself was always out of question. There will always be something that make you despise yourself: you're too short, too tall, your boobs are too small, you have cellulite, your eyes are too small ecc... I will be 21 next month and I decided I don't want to care anymore. I feel as I had waste too much time chasing the impossible, searching an excuse for self loathing. Now I exercise, but for the health of my body, not to be beautiful and I try not to care about the numbers on the scale. Thank you Linda for what you do!

im honestly so grateful that God somehow allowed me to stumble across Linda's youtube page, because otherwise my relationship with food wouldn't have reached this point in the last 6 years. i'm still trying my best not to feel bad for eating more than my supposed calorie intake, but looking at Linda eat just makes me think twice before putting down my fork. honestly, linda to me is like lilly sabri to linda, she just makes me love exercising and she has such an impact in my overall body image and how i take care of my body. thanks for doing what u do Linda!!

Years have nothing to do with maturity. There are people who are 3 years older than you and i'm sure you are more mature than some of them too. Age doesn't mean anything when you are in your 20's adult years.
at 18:47 when she said “here is why it is all worth it” made me cry because my family could and would never sit and laugh and just have fun my dad is distant and even had my name spelled wrong in his phone he forgot my birthday and called me fat multiple times. my brother wished me dead everyday and made sure I don’t forget how much he hated me and wishes that I was dead along with calling me fat and etc. my mom always gets mad at me and won’t take responsibility for anything and turns it on me if I tell her that she wasn’t nice to me today she will just turn it on me. my bsf left cause I can’t spend the night during covid cause of health problems in my family. i’m starting to develop an ED and I keep hinting at my mom with comments like “I ate to much” (only eating dinner) and “I look rlly fat I need to stop eating so much” and if I say “i’m fat” she won’t tell me no ur not ur beautiful she will say instead we just need to eat better and it really is getting worse everyday linda’s videos are like the closest thing to therapy i’m ever gonna get it angers me that I get jealous of her family... the love they all have for each other and how much fun they enjoy each other’s company I feel if I disappeared half of my family wouldn’t even notice and I just want to be the happy little girl I was the girl who didn’t worry about weight the girl who didn’t feel sad all the time the girl who ate what she wanted without worrying it’s been a long time since i’ve seen that girl my mom has pointed it out as well so yea thanks for reading this long ass rant ❤️ UPDATE: first thank you guys for all the support and love you gave me it truly had made my day and probably my whole week and also i’m only 13 the past 3-4 days have been really bad my brother was being nice and we actually hung out and got along for about 20 minutes haven’t spoken to my dad he yelled at me cause I didn’t clean up his mess but that’s normal my mom has been mad at me and has been really mean for no reason recently and keeps telling me she’s gonna get rid of my dogs even though I fully take care of them and I keep asking her for workout stuff ( a yoga mat ) and some healthy food from the grocery store and we use instacart cause of health issues and she took ALL of my healthy stuff out of the cart after promising me that she would order it and ended up canceling the order and got mad at me because I fell asleep and also yells at me for being on my phone during a pandemic... so yea its kinda sucky rn but hopefully it will get better soon
i understand what you’re saying and i want to tell you that people love you. even if you’re family relationship isn’t great i promise that many people (including me) love you. remember that you deserve happiness and you deserve food. eat every meal and be grateful for it. you will find happiness and peace, you are on the right path. reach out for help if you need it (we are all right here) and try not to get angry at yourself, it’s easy to long for the things you wish you had. above all love yourself because you are spectacular and you are here for a reason
I am so sorry you have to go through all that, it must be painful beyond measure. Please know that even if it seems like nobody loves you, there are, and you will get the chance to meet so many new people who will love you as you grow. I really wish the best for you, and remember, if you ever need anyone to talk, I can give you my socials (insta, snap) and will be happy to listen! I love you
i don't know you, nor do i know why your family is treating you in such a manner, but i think you need to focus on yourself and what makes you happy. your family might not be the ideal, mine isn't either, you just have to believe some way, somehow life will take you where you need to go. one day you'll meet people who love and care for you and right now you just need to be that person for yourself. sending you lots of love, if you need anyone to talk to about literally anything, let me know :)
i also live with a toxic family but I'm not gonna live with them forever one day i will leave the house for sure. stay strong and don't forget to be your own happiness nothing matter more than yourself.
I’m 27 and a mom. This brought me to absolute tears. I’ve never struggled more with my body and my self worth than now. These struggles can hit anyone at any time and you are inspiring more people than you could imagine. Thank you, Linda.

Same thing happened to me last year,I was in such a deep depression and unbearable loneliness I turned to food and self destruction In order to feel good about myself because she was the only friend I ever had,am recovering now and thanks to Linda am understanding it's ok to eat it's ok to smile it's ok to laugh away the pain and it's ok workout because I love my body so much that I want to improve and not because I want to look like everybody else🙂
@@sylviamwaka4890 you are so strong, thank you for sharing this. Just having linda as well as you all to relate to has made a world of difference to me ❤
hey linda i can’t believe i’m this early i have watched every single one of your videos and you are one of my biggest inspirations i’m only 13 and you’ve helped me create such a healthy relationship with my body. happy birthday i wish you the best and keep doing what your doing xoxo lara
Same! I wish ive found Linda earlier so i didnt have to recover. But, im happy i found Linda in november, so she helped me recover, she showed me the beauty of the world, and that there is so much beauty. And that its all worth it. Lets admit it, we all would have been lost without this wonderful girl
I think Linda has helped all of us she’s changed my relationship with food I’ve always been a tight diet saying you’re not good enough for now if there’s A day I should work out and I don’t feel like it I just won’t and I don’t have a diet I eat what I want and I’ve never loved my body more
you need to write a book or something Linda, you’ve truly helped me love myself and realise i need to love myself before anyone else can, i’ve started eating well AND eating what i enjoy and workout out because i love doing it, thank you so much for your inspiring videos you don’t even know how much it has helped🤍🤍
Lol under your comment someone said 'I cried multiple times during this video [etc...]' Well... I didn't cry BUT I feel waaaay better now! ... except for the fact that I want to start doing sport again but I always procrastinate, to be honest I feel a little bit disappointed with myself because I love doing sport (especially skating, sadly I've been forced to stop competitions due to physical problems) but I became too lazy in the last 5 (?) years and it doesn't matter how motivated I am (is it am I? Sorry I don't remember the right form), I don't move from the bed. I actually tried to workout but It lasted a couple days.. I even created some beautiful routines to follow after many searches and studies so I can be more organised but not too much so I won't stress about it (I'm a perfectionist, I need to plan things ahead or else I will feel bad) :') Does someone have an advice for me? 🥺👉👈
I am literally crying. You are without a doubt the most talented, relatable, honest and valuable person I have ever come across. Your talent blows my mind! I have watched every video you have ever posted, and I can honestly say, you are the reason why I realized that I had to save me from myself. Listening to everything Lily Sabri said in the clip you inserted, made me so happy. It was so spot on and just beyond true, and you deserve so much acknowledgment for what you do. Somehow, you have not only found a way to love yourself and be proud of yourself, but also a way to inspire others to do the same. Words can't describe you. And I know I don't know you, and my comment most likely will be lost amongst a thousand of others, but I just want you to know that people like you, are a blessing to this mess of a world that we live in. So thank you so so so much Linda!
so i just turned 15 two weeks ago and her message to her 15 year old self was exactly what i needed to hear and i have been watching Linda’s videos every day and even rewatching them because she knows exactly what to say and she’s such an amazing person, and i just wanted to say thank you and i love you girl!!

*is it just me or do you also get so distracted by her editing skills that you've to watch the entire video atleast twice to absorb everything that she tells us ?*
You all always comment "she's only 19 and she's living her life an incredible way", she is living life now because she didn't live life before You're incredible Linda!!
@@lindasunyt omg!! She replied me!! I love you Linda, I didn't eat for last 2 days but thanks to you I'll go have dinner, I hope you and your family are doing ok, you're such an inspiration to me 💖💖 I'm really not having a good time with food and body image but your videos have helped me a lot!! ❤❤❤🥺 Sorry for my bad English, send you love from Colombia 🇨🇴❤

it takes a lot to come out and the fact that this girl is literally opening up to the whole entire world via her videos *and actually making impact on people(in a positive manner obv) is beyond everything , we just want you to know Linda that you are freaking precious*
everything linda said she went through when she was 13, that is literally my life at the moment. im the same age, with the same negative thoughts, but im trying to recover. maybe i will
I literally cried every 20 sec. This video is crazy, and you, Linda, I swear you are incredible. Sometimes I feel ugly and I go back and forth your videos just to feel less alone. And it works every time. Because you’re true, because you are truly human, and you have the braveness to accept it. Keep going, because that’s what you do, you help people. ❤️
This is actually crazy I’ve never seen a TH-camr be so relatable and say what I really need to hear and not make things worse. Where have you been?? I grew up in Canada so this is so relatable to me. I feel like Linda is so much like me and the girls I grew up with
sweet Linda I watched with my 11 year old girl who struggles with low self esteem. At the end she told me that she would like to have a friend like you because you understand. She also said that she is going to try and be as strong as you. She understands what you meen by being enough. May I thank you for your powerfull words, your bubbly personality, your recipes and your posts. Love your mum and dat. Keep it up girl. You have 2 big fans over here in Holland.
Linda is the best. I caught myself saying “wow Id love to be stronger” rather than saying “wow I wish I was skinner” a few days ago and it took me a few seconds to realize how my mindset had radically changed. Thank you Linda!

So truuuuee! 🙌🏼 I know Linda inspired so many people to be healthier and stronger, me included, but she also inspired me to stop being scared all the time and to upload my first YT video about my recovery journey! 💖 (I am still scared AF lol)
Omg hi I’m so happy I found your channel it’s like somthing that just said GO WATCH HER SHES AMAZING so I did and I love food and you helped me so much :)
This video made me cry, because I realized how I never really aprecciated myself until this year. And I am so glad that I finally realized how important, strong, smart and beautiful person I am. Thank you for finding the right words in every single video and for reminding me that I am enough.
18:04 "At my goal weight, I still hated the way I look." You put my thoughts in words like damn. Thank you, Linda. Thank you for being there. Everything will be alright, self.
I cannot express in words how proud I am of you Linda. You are 20 years old, so young and so smart. You went through a lot, and though it may sound to you that it took you 20 years to realize your self worth, it takes others so much more because we are all in our different paths, and yours is so empowering, you not only helped yourself, but in the process you helped more than 500 thousand people who were inspired by your realistic videos. My words may mean little to you cause you don’t know me, but just know that all of us are incredibly proud of you and grateful to have found you♥️
your videos always make me tell myself to love myself, see how strong I can become, really watch this video of how you grew up and see that I almost went through the same thing really made me cry, your videos always they comfort.
Wow. At first, I found this channel and loved how she was so creative and exercised with her family everyday. But I never knew how complicated her life was until now. Of course mine wasn’t as difficult but similar enough to relate to all the negativity. Ever sine the beginning of 2020 when I saw my first video of hers, I was instantly inspired and glad that there is someone else out there just like me. That having all those thoughts about my body didn’t make me crazy, just another person with fog hiding there golden brick road... I’m so glad this exists for the world to see. Thank you
Was not prepared to be crying today. Linda is such an inspiration to me and knowing that she's been through similar pains as I have is really comforting
its horrible that she went through that when she was 4 years old. its horrible that not being skinny is considered “ugly”. what a shameful world we live in.
When Linda said her message for her 15 year old self I felt like she was talking to me I just turned 15 and tears of love escaped my eyes when she said it. Happy Birthday to us Linda!! ily
Awww, same tho, cuz I'm also 15 and on a weight loss journey. I've been pretty disheartened these past couple of days cuz I gained 0.6 kg back this week and idk... it's just really frustrating

This is something that hits hard, I was the kid that hit puberty earlier than everyone, I was the bigger kid. I hated myself. I'm still learning to love myself. It's a hard journey. There is still days where I want to have smaller thighs and a slim waist. Linda you may not realise this, but you have shown me how to admire my strength. I may fall everyone now and then, but you have taught me to get up again. Thank you Linda 💓
As a 28 year old, *YOU inspire me Linda* ❤️ Thanks to you I've been working on my Relationship with food. I've recently started Intuitive eating. I am the happiest I've ever been. Thank you Linda 🥰
i turned twenty one a couple months ago and i had only just started eating healthily. healthily in the sense that i was no longer afraid of eating what i wanted. it’s been a long battle with my insecurities, especially my weight and i have to thank you so much for helping me along the way!! your videos have helped me so much and i can’t thank you enough! sending you lots of love!! 💖
Im crying rn, u touch me so much. This year i left toxic relationships, starting caring abt my body, and im shifting schools because of bullies. Thank u. U helped me thru all this.
Your story is so so similar to mine. I always feel so alone when it comes to the things that I struggle with and have been through. I was always embarrassed about by binging, restriction, purging or anxiety and thought that it should never be talked about. I can never fully recover because I push everything down and once it builds up I push the self destruct button. Linda, everything you say is so real and true. It is amazing to hear that restricting yourself is not normal, breaking yourself down or always thinking about food/exercise is NOT healthy!Thank you for motivating me! I am in tears right now
Linda is like a mentor to me , she understands me even if I’m watching her video. she faced her fears strongly by letting go of those bad moments, love , strength and happiness. It just makes me smile to see Linda happy. Now i understand her problems and since she facing hers I can face mine Wish me luck and so as yours
I'm 24, Girl, I swear that with your words, videos, your life storym you have touched my heart. I don't have words, I want to cry. You really represent what is healthy, normal, a life journey example. I've struggled with food fear for more than 10 years, and believe me, no one in youtube is such an inspiration as you. YOU ARE SO STRONG! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR STORY!
Its crazy how much i can relate with this Story. As if she was telling mine. It seems that im not alone. That there are many more, that feel and live the same way. Thank you Linda
Dear Linda you don't know how many peoples you have helped and how grateful everyone is to have you in they're lives and how grateful we are to have you on youtube. Linda, we love you and we hope you know that without you we would all be empty.

BRUH I'M LITERALLY DROOLING AT EVERY FOOD IN THIS VID. THE BOAR STEW. THE CHICKEN MASH POTATO. THE OTHER THING WHERE SHE TOOK OUT THE CARROTS. THE CHEESECAKE. ahh so hungry now hehehehe
Feels like my life was told from a different perspective. I exactly know how hard it was to go to the doctor and to always feel like an elephant next to my friends. But I guess I learned how to deal with it. Being a girl and 180cm tall did not kill me. It made me who I am know! Love you Linda!
oh linda, you have no idea of how important and special you are. you are loved. you are special. you are worthy. you are enough. you are everything and more. thank you for allowing us to change our life's along with you 🤍
It's taken me 35 years to even begin to make the life-changing realizations that you're making at age 20. I wish I would have had this kind of clarity at that age. As a complete stranger, I am so incredibly happy for you. Happy that you won't spend another 15 years, as I did, being miserable with yourself. You've got a great head on your shoulders, Linda. Thanks for spreading your message to girls/ women of all ages!
every time you upload a video i thank god that i once stumbled upon your vegan what i eat in a day video on my hope page. you changed the way i look at world, you changed my relationship with food, you taught me its okay to not feel okay. thank you linda, for deciding to share this with us 🤍
i used to be guilty for everything i ate, but then came LINDAAA. you helped me so much with my fitness journey and i now dont feel guilty with my food. thxx LINDAAA SUNNN ILY SO MUCHHH
Girl you don’t realise how many people you’re helping, you’ve helped change my mindset towards food and exercise which is something I thought id never have a healthy mindset towards, thank you and keep doing what ur doing 💗💗💗

When I was a kid I hated my body. I was always told by the doctor that I was overweight and she asked if I exercised and if I liked any sports and told me to workout more. I dreaded going to the doctor and stepping on the scale. The first doctor that didn't bring up my weight made me feel almost a sense of relief and the tension that I held went away so quickly and made me feel so good. I still don't really like sports but I've changed my diet and started working out at home and seeing this video, seeing the pain in your eyes when you read some of those parts... I was and somewhat still am feeling what I did when I was a kid. But I'm working on myself and Linda, you are truly amazing. The things you say in your videos make me feel great and I bet it makes others feel amazing as well. Thank you.

I cant remember the last time a yt video made me cry... I think it was 50pc because I felt so terrible for young linda but 50pc because your story is literally my story.. And it's the first time I've heard someone talk so openly about it, and made me remember memories I had blocked from being an overweight child. I've lost over 50 pounds recently and have fallen into a terrible vicious cycle of restriction and over exercising, but after watching your videos linda, I've finally realised something.. Idk what is id yet but I want to live again without counting every single calorie.. Thank you Linda xxxx
I'm currently suffering with an ED, and was 'dieting' myself to lose weight and fat,, but this video has made me actually eat tea today. Thank you, Linda.
You are so strong. You have the strength to change, you have the strength to be whoever you want and do whatever you want. And that's the prettiest part os life I hope you recover from you eating disorder P.S: I am from Brazil, so English is not my first language. Sorry if I wrote something wrong
@@mariaclp11 Thank you for everything, your English (coming from a Brit) is wonderful and truly coherent; I hope you go far in life - you're truly an angel ♡
I was going through a really bad time (weight-wise) when I came across this video. After not eating for weeks, I watched this and went and ate a slice of cake. Linda. What can I even say, you changed my life. Its because of you that I'm eating, that I'm here, and that I love myself. Two words spelling 'thank you' will NEVER be able to express my gratitude, but none the less, thank you!
you inspired me so much to the point where I can't even comprehend and you are the only few reasons I chose to love and accept my body, you made me who I am Linda, thank you.
it is beautiful to see this video when I'm turning 20, dealing with my body issues, my enoughness. Linda, this is such a heartwarming video, this is so brave to show us the ways you've passed. I want you to know that your self value can't be measured only with how you look but it can be measured with the way you smile, your beautiful relationship with your friends and family and how you treat people around you. Love you
I wonder how many people saw Linda in her teens and saw her as a bubbly, high-achieving fit girl who was absolutely killing it. Which she was, but was also deeply unhappy and struggling. Plenty of them probably wished they could be more like her. I guess we only really know what's going on with other people at a surface level so using someone else to measure yourself or set your goals will never bring you what you expect. Thanks for sharing this Linda and congratulations on half a million :)
who else feels like linda has TRULY changed their life?!
Me :)
@@naemaadam4559 same here! her videos are so well edited and filmed, and she just motivates me so much. a TRUE QUEEN!!!
@@savannahhamama617 me to she actually changed my life and helped me to love my body she is such a queen 👑
TRULY!!
Yesss, she literally changed my whole perspective of food, working out, beauty standards etc. She did something my parents, therapists, doctors and me couldn’t do for years. Linda is REALLY changing lives ❤️
I am 15 right now, and when she talked to her younger, 15 year old self, it felt like she was talking to me. I just sat there with tears in my eyes, silently thanking her. But i don´t want to be silent: So, thank you, you made me not regretting what I just ate, you made me feel good. Thank you, you´re literally amazing, Linda
You are amazing and I wish you all the best ❤️❤️
@@lindasunyt thank you so much for all youve done for everyone who watches your videos. you helped bring me out of such a dark spot and proved to me that my life is worth more then being skinny. you have truly changed my life, thank you so so much
i feel the same... just letting you know your not alone.
OMG same... im 15 too and literally cried
me too :( im 15 and just started anorexia recovery after around 3 years and i really felt it
she is so indescribable. she’s just makes me feel so loved.

I was literally crying the whole video. I'm just tired of hating my body, of feeling lonely and scared. I always feel like Linda's videos are like a warm hug.
Same. I'm just so tired and I was starting to be okay with me and then one day I ate lot food and I cried so much I was so worried. I had no idea what's happening with my body how do I go better from here how do I stop loving tasty beautiful food. How do that? I'm so tired of trying things to lose weight I'm just so tired
Daniela, sending out a big hug to you! This year has been a huge shift for me and I'm finally enjoying food and accepting myself. I hope and pray you will get there soon too ♥️
@@myrnakeough2093 Thank you!
@@impalanotaming sending huge hugs and love to you!! it will get better!
literally same
i've cried multiple times while watching this because everything hit too close to home, we love you so much Linda
Exactly
I felt this. I was the fat kid. Honestly I would've not care much, but school and people glances really fuck me up. From the extrovert and sassy toddler/little girl, I began socially awkward and insicure. I was sure no one want to be my friend.
I lost a lot of weight when I hit puberty (I was 10, an early bloomer as well), but I had so much fat that I was still overweight and obviously at that age be beautiful and thin becomes a focal point in the life of a girl. I felt less than my friends, I knew no one would be interested in me.
I lost 10 kg in a little more than a year, between 13 and 14. I don't think I had an eating disorder, but for sure a disorder eating and a shitty relationship with my body: I often skipped dinner and a cycle bike (is the name right?) became my best friend.
Needless to say that loosing weight didn't change much for me, because something had to change inside.
I lived with the fear of gaining back the kg for years, and my weight fluctuates as is normal in your teenage years. At some point gaining weight became more difficult: I could literally eat everything I wanted by the end of high school and that probably healed a bit my relationship with food. But loving myself was always out of question. There will always be something that make you despise yourself: you're too short, too tall, your boobs are too small, you have cellulite, your eyes are too small ecc... I will be 21 next month and I decided I don't want to care anymore. I feel as I had waste too much time chasing the impossible, searching an excuse for self loathing. Now I exercise, but for the health of my body, not to be beautiful and I try not to care about the numbers on the scale.
Thank you Linda for what you do!
I’ll be 18! In 8 more months you inspired me to start my own journey with food and exercise ^^
@@a_rie.-. ty! I'm very happy for you, I believe in you!

Oh my word, thats perfect!
Ommmmgggg yes yes yessss

@@emilyesnyman 🔥🔥🔥
im honestly so grateful that God somehow allowed me to stumble across Linda's youtube page, because otherwise my relationship with food wouldn't have reached this point in the last 6 years. i'm still trying my best not to feel bad for eating more than my supposed calorie intake, but looking at Linda eat just makes me think twice before putting down my fork. honestly, linda to me is like lilly sabri to linda, she just makes me love exercising and she has such an impact in my overall body image and how i take care of my body. thanks for doing what u do Linda!!
Me too! I’m grateful God get me to Linda’s videos because she has helped me a lot
Yessss this!!
When I say I cried... I CRIED. I need Linda to be my best friend right now.
If you weren't on TH-cam, I probably wouldn't be like myself right now
I agree
same here
Sameeee
Same

same, she has no idea how much she's helped me
It's crazy how we all think that we are alone in this situation when we grow up but probably most people think the same..
this is actually the best video i've ever watched on TH-cam.
I think teenage girls like me who found Linda are so lucky
She is a great role model

Linda is 3 years younger than me but the level of maturity and wisdom she has is just amazing.. so many things you’ve achieved
I was shocked to find out she´s younger than me. She´s so mature and amazing
She’s a whole 8 years younger than me and I still find her so wise and inspirational! ❤️
Years have nothing to do with maturity. There are people who are 3 years older than you and i'm sure you are more mature than some of them too. Age doesn't mean anything when you are in your 20's adult years.
*“And every year I tell myself “I’m not gonna do that , I’m not gonna do it, I’m not gonna do it again” and every year, yup, I do it again.*
at 18:47 when she said “here is why it is all worth it” made me cry because my family could and would never sit and laugh and just have fun my dad is distant and even had my name spelled wrong in his phone he forgot my birthday and called me fat multiple times. my brother wished me dead everyday and made sure I don’t forget how much he hated me and wishes that I was dead along with calling me fat and etc. my mom always gets mad at me and won’t take responsibility for anything and turns it on me if I tell her that she wasn’t nice to me today she will just turn it on me. my bsf left cause I can’t spend the night during covid cause of health problems in my family. i’m starting to develop an ED and I keep hinting at my mom with comments like “I ate to much” (only eating dinner) and “I look rlly fat I need to stop eating so much” and if I say “i’m fat” she won’t tell me no ur not ur beautiful she will say instead we just need to eat better and it really is getting worse everyday linda’s videos are like the closest thing to therapy i’m ever gonna get it angers me that I get jealous of her family... the love they all have for each other and how much fun they enjoy each other’s company I feel if I disappeared half of my family wouldn’t even notice and I just want to be the happy little girl I was the girl who didn’t worry about weight the girl who didn’t feel sad all the time the girl who ate what she wanted without worrying it’s been a long time since i’ve seen that girl my mom has pointed it out as well so yea thanks for reading this long ass rant ❤️
UPDATE: first thank you guys for all the support and love you gave me it truly had made my day and probably my whole week and also i’m only 13 the past 3-4 days have been really bad my brother was being nice and we actually hung out and got along for about 20 minutes haven’t spoken to my dad he yelled at me cause I didn’t clean up his mess but that’s normal my mom has been mad at me and has been really mean for no reason recently and keeps telling me she’s gonna get rid of my dogs even though I fully take care of them and I keep asking her for workout stuff ( a yoga mat ) and some healthy food from the grocery store and we use instacart cause of health issues and she took ALL of my healthy stuff out of the cart after promising me that she would order it and ended up canceling the order and got mad at me because I fell asleep and also yells at me for being on my phone during a pandemic... so yea its kinda sucky rn but hopefully it will get better soon
i understand what you’re saying and i want to tell you that people love you. even if you’re family relationship isn’t great i promise that many people (including me) love you. remember that you deserve happiness and you deserve food. eat every meal and be grateful for it. you will find happiness and peace, you are on the right path. reach out for help if you need it (we are all right here) and try not to get angry at yourself, it’s easy to long for the things you wish you had. above all love yourself because you are spectacular and you are here for a reason
I am so sorry you have to go through all that, it must be painful beyond measure. Please know that even if it seems like nobody loves you, there are, and you will get the chance to meet so many new people who will love you as you grow. I really wish the best for you, and remember, if you ever need anyone to talk, I can give you my socials (insta, snap) and will be happy to listen! I love you
i don't know you, nor do i know why your family is treating you in such a manner, but i think you need to focus on yourself and what makes you happy. your family might not be the ideal, mine isn't either, you just have to believe some way, somehow life will take you where you need to go. one day you'll meet people who love and care for you and right now you just need to be that person for yourself. sending you lots of love, if you need anyone to talk to about literally anything, let me know :)
I am so so so so sorry that is awful and terrible everyone’s here for you 😊
i also live with a toxic family but I'm not gonna live with them forever one day i will leave the house for sure. stay strong and don't forget to be your own happiness nothing matter more than yourself.
Let's just agree that Linda's short hair was GORGEOUS.
yes 🙌
nonono SHE IS GORGEOUS ✨

This made me cry because I am still on my journey to self-love , and hearing her remind me that I am enough was the happiest moment of my day/
When she said her best friend left her too... that really hit hard... that hit home, but you're not the only one linda
Yeah I felt that too
Same thing happened to me last year,I was in such a deep depression and unbearable loneliness I turned to food and self destruction In order to feel good about myself because she was the only friend I ever had,am recovering now and thanks to Linda am understanding it's ok to eat it's ok to smile it's ok to laugh away the pain and it's ok workout because I love my body so much that I want to improve and not because I want to look like everybody else🙂
@@sylviamwaka4890 you are so strong, thank you for sharing this. Just having linda as well as you all to relate to has made a world of difference to me ❤
Same lol, still hurts
She's been through a lot and I'm so proud of her success.
hey linda i can’t believe i’m this early i have watched every single one of your videos and you are one of my biggest inspirations i’m only 13 and you’ve helped me create such a healthy relationship with my body. happy birthday i wish you the best and keep doing what your doing xoxo lara
Mine too I'm also 13
Same! I wish ive found Linda earlier so i didnt have to recover. But, im happy i found Linda in november, so she helped me recover, she showed me the beauty of the world, and that there is so much beauty. And that its all worth it. Lets admit it, we all would have been lost without this wonderful girl
Same, but I'm 12. Thank you Linda and happy birthday!!🥳
I think Linda has helped all of us she’s changed my relationship with food I’ve always been a tight diet saying you’re not good enough for now if there’s A day I should work out and I don’t feel like it I just won’t and I don’t have a diet I eat what I want and I’ve never loved my body more
@@defnotcali im so so so proud of you < 3
"Love doesn't hurt... that means I have literally never loved myself"... oof that really hit home🥺
you need to write a book or something Linda, you’ve truly helped me love myself and realise i need to love myself before anyone else can, i’ve started eating well AND eating what i enjoy and workout out because i love doing it, thank you so much for your inspiring videos you don’t even know how much it has helped🤍🤍
ok i can’t be the only one that cried like multiple times throughout the video😭❤️
Same
Lol under your comment someone said 'I cried multiple times during this video [etc...]'
Well...
I didn't cry BUT I feel waaaay better now!
... except for the fact that I want to start doing sport again but I always procrastinate, to be honest I feel a little bit disappointed with myself because I love doing sport (especially skating, sadly I've been forced to stop competitions due to physical problems) but I became too lazy in the last 5 (?) years and it doesn't matter how motivated I am (is it am I? Sorry I don't remember the right form), I don't move from the bed. I actually tried to workout but It lasted a couple days.. I even created some beautiful routines to follow after many searches and studies so I can be more organised but not too much so I won't stress about it (I'm a perfectionist, I need to plan things ahead or else I will feel bad) :')
Does someone have an advice for me? 🥺👉👈
I am literally crying. You are without a doubt the most talented, relatable, honest and valuable person I have ever come across. Your talent blows my mind! I have watched every video you have ever posted, and I can honestly say, you are the reason why I realized that I had to save me from myself. Listening to everything Lily Sabri said in the clip you inserted, made me so happy. It was so spot on and just beyond true, and you deserve so much acknowledgment for what you do. Somehow, you have not only found a way to love yourself and be proud of yourself, but also a way to inspire others to do the same. Words can't describe you. And I know I don't know you, and my comment most likely will be lost amongst a thousand of others, but I just want you to know that people like you, are a blessing to this mess of a world that we live in. So thank you so so so much Linda!
you're a blessing for expressing this so kindly and bravely here. I hope she'll read this and you're doing well and getting better
so i just turned 15 two weeks ago and her message to her 15 year old self was exactly what i needed to hear and i have been watching Linda’s videos every day and even rewatching them because she knows exactly what to say and she’s such an amazing person, and i just wanted to say thank you and i love you girl!!

🥺🥺 this means so much to me thank you ❤️
everything linda said she went through when she was 13, that is literally my life at the moment. im the same age, with the same negative thoughts, but im trying to recover. maybe i will
I believe in you and I’m so proud of you! i know how hard it is but it’s worth it. You got this ❤️
I am as well. Good luck 🙂
I've been staring at 0:21 prom Linda for at least 5 minutes
AAHHAHAHAHAHA
@@lindasunyt you looked so beautiful!!!
Girl sameeeeee
the impact that this woman has made on my life is astronomical
I literally cried every 20 sec.
This video is crazy, and you, Linda, I swear you are incredible. Sometimes I feel ugly and I go back and forth your videos just to feel less alone. And it works every time. Because you’re true, because you are truly human, and you have the braveness to accept it.
Keep going, because that’s what you do, you help people. ❤️
This is actually crazy I’ve never seen a TH-camr be so relatable and say what I really need to hear and not make things worse. Where have you been?? I grew up in Canada so this is so relatable to me. I feel like Linda is so much like me and the girls I grew up with
Linda, you have no idea how big of an impact you made in people’s lives. This video hits close to home😭
im literally 6yrs older than linda but i feel like she has way more mature mindset and i admire her for that lol
sweet Linda I watched with my 11 year old girl who struggles with low self esteem. At the end she told me that she would like to have a friend like you because you understand. She also said that she is going to try and be as strong as you. She understands what you meen by being enough. May I thank you for your powerfull words, your bubbly personality, your recipes and your posts. Love your mum and dat. Keep it up girl. You have 2 big fans over here in Holland.
Linda imagine how many young boys/girls you saved from an unhealthy relationship with food, you should be so proud of yourself :)❤
Am I the only one who instantly starts smiling when I see that ✨Linda✨ posted a video?
Meee 😁
I start dancing 😂😂 her videos makes me day
I feel like she's literally telling me my life
Linda is the best. I caught myself saying “wow Id love to be stronger” rather than saying “wow I wish I was skinner” a few days ago and it took me a few seconds to realize how my mindset had radically changed. Thank you Linda!
" at age 6 I already knew I wasn't beautiful "😥💔 This made me feel so deeply for anyone who ever felt this. Linda is a perfect Linda🤗
I’m 22, but imagine 16 years old me having you as an idol 😞. Now, I’m fighting with bulimia 🙂. Thanks for giving me so much inspirations ✨✨

So truuuuee! 🙌🏼 I know Linda inspired so many people to be healthier and stronger, me included, but she also inspired me to stop being scared all the time and to upload my first YT video about my recovery journey! 💖 (I am still scared AF lol)
The fact that you went through so much and overcame the obstacles is sooooooo inspirational . Thank you.
Thank you 🥺❤️
Omg hi I’m so happy I found your channel it’s like somthing that just said GO WATCH HER SHES AMAZING so I did and I love food and you helped me so much :)
If you're broken you do not have to stay broken ♥ (Selena Gomez said it and I remember ❤)
This video made me cry, because I realized how I never really aprecciated myself until this year. And I am so glad that I finally realized how important, strong, smart and beautiful person I am. Thank you for finding the right words in every single video and for reminding me that I am enough.
18:04 "At my goal weight, I still hated the way I look." You put my thoughts in words like damn. Thank you, Linda. Thank you for being there. Everything will be alright, self.
I cannot express in words how proud I am of you Linda. You are 20 years old, so young and so smart. You went through a lot, and though it may sound to you that it took you 20 years to realize your self worth, it takes others so much more because we are all in our different paths, and yours is so empowering, you not only helped yourself, but in the process you helped more than 500 thousand people who were inspired by your realistic videos. My words may mean little to you cause you don’t know me, but just know that all of us are incredibly proud of you and grateful to have found you♥️
your videos always make me tell myself to love myself, see how strong I can become, really watch this video of how you grew up and see that I almost went through the same thing really made me cry, your videos always they comfort.
pd:love u linda and happy birthday
Yes, I feel the same
AAAAHHHHH AHHHHHH THAT WAS THE QUICKEST I CLICKED ON A NOTIFICATION LMAOOO

Wow. At first, I found this channel and loved how she was so creative and exercised with her family everyday. But I never knew how complicated her life was until now. Of course mine wasn’t as difficult but similar enough to relate to all the negativity. Ever sine the beginning of 2020 when I saw my first video of hers, I was instantly inspired and glad that there is someone else out there just like me. That having all those thoughts about my body didn’t make me crazy, just another person with fog hiding there golden brick road... I’m so glad this exists for the world to see. Thank you
Was not prepared to be crying today. Linda is such an inspiration to me and knowing that she's been through similar pains as I have is really comforting
its horrible that she went through that when she was 4 years old. its horrible that not being skinny is considered “ugly”. what a shameful world we live in.
When Linda said her message for her 15 year old self I felt like she was talking to me I just turned 15 and tears of love escaped my eyes when she said it. Happy Birthday to us Linda!! ily
Awww, same tho, cuz I'm also 15 and on a weight loss journey. I've been pretty disheartened these past couple of days cuz I gained 0.6 kg back this week and idk... it's just really frustrating
same lol i turned 14 near the end of nov and what she was saying hit hardd

This is something that hits hard, I was the kid that hit puberty earlier than everyone, I was the bigger kid. I hated myself. I'm still learning to love myself. It's a hard journey. There is still days where I want to have smaller thighs and a slim waist. Linda you may not realise this, but you have shown me how to admire my strength. I may fall everyone now and then, but you have taught me to get up again. Thank you Linda 💓
As a 28 year old, *YOU inspire me Linda* ❤️ Thanks to you I've been working on my Relationship with food. I've recently started Intuitive eating. I am the happiest I've ever been. Thank you Linda 🥰
I found her while being at my deepest point and she gives me so much strength with every single video, can’t even describe how grateful I am ❤️
i turned twenty one a couple months ago and i had only just started eating healthily. healthily in the sense that i was no longer afraid of eating what i wanted. it’s been a long battle with my insecurities, especially my weight and i have to thank you so much for helping me along the way!! your videos have helped me so much and i can’t thank you enough! sending you lots of love!! 💖
To anyone reading this: Be proud of who you are today and the person you’re becoming. What matters is that you’re trying 💕
Im crying rn, u touch me so much.
This year i left toxic relationships, starting caring abt my body, and im shifting schools because of bullies.
Thank u.
U helped me thru all this.
Your story is so so similar to mine. I always feel so alone when it comes to the things that I struggle with and have been through. I was always embarrassed about by binging, restriction, purging or anxiety and thought that it should never be talked about. I can never fully recover because I push everything down and once it builds up I push the self destruct button.
Linda, everything you say is so real and true. It is amazing to hear that restricting yourself is not normal, breaking yourself down or always thinking about food/exercise is NOT healthy!Thank you for motivating me! I am in tears right now
Linda's editing is the best on the internet, she's so underrated! Lets buildd a Linda community!!!!
In a world so overwhelming and fast-paced, I'm so glad I have a safe space with you :")
Happy belated birthday.
❤️❤️❤️❤️ tysm
I just hope that one day, I too, can be proud of being me. I still have a long ways to go, but this video made me realize that it is possible.
You will be, don't worry 💙
I totally understand the struggles of being a chunky kid. My family always made me feel like I was fat and no one should do that to a child😥
Linda is like a mentor to me , she understands me even if I’m watching her video. she faced her fears strongly by letting go of those bad moments, love , strength and happiness. It just makes me smile to see Linda happy. Now i understand her problems and since she facing hers I can face mine
Wish me luck and so as yours
I'm 24, Girl, I swear that with your words, videos, your life storym you have touched my heart. I don't have words, I want to cry. You really represent what is healthy, normal, a life journey example. I've struggled with food fear for more than 10 years, and believe me, no one in youtube is such an inspiration as you.
YOU ARE SO STRONG! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR STORY!
Its crazy how much i can relate with this Story. As if she was telling mine. It seems that im not alone. That there are many more, that feel and live the same way. Thank you Linda
you make me feel less alone too ❤️
Dear Linda
you don't know how many peoples you have helped and how grateful everyone is to have you in they're lives and how grateful we are to have you on youtube.
Linda, we love you and we hope you know that without you we would all be empty.

i literally cried. i’m 12 and hearing you talk about how you thought about yourself and seeing you now- breaks me down. i’m so proud of you, Linda.
BRUH I'M LITERALLY DROOLING AT EVERY FOOD IN THIS VID. THE BOAR STEW. THE CHICKEN MASH POTATO. THE OTHER THING WHERE SHE TOOK OUT THE CARROTS. THE CHEESECAKE. ahh so hungry now hehehehe
Feels like my life was told from a different perspective. I exactly know how hard it was to go to the doctor and to always feel like an elephant next to my friends. But I guess I learned how to deal with it. Being a girl and 180cm tall did not kill me. It made me who I am know!
Love you Linda!
oh linda, you have no idea of how important and special you are. you are loved. you are special. you are worthy. you are enough. you are everything and more. thank you for allowing us to change our life's along with you 🤍

It's taken me 35 years to even begin to make the life-changing realizations that you're making at age 20. I wish I would have had this kind of clarity at that age. As a complete stranger, I am so incredibly happy for you. Happy that you won't spend another 15 years, as I did, being miserable with yourself. You've got a great head on your shoulders, Linda. Thanks for spreading your message to girls/ women of all ages!
every time you upload a video i thank god that i once stumbled upon your vegan what i eat in a day video on my hope page. you changed the way i look at world, you changed my relationship with food, you taught me its okay to not feel okay. thank you linda, for deciding to share this with us 🤍
i used to be guilty for everything i ate, but then came LINDAAA. you helped me so much with my fitness journey and i now dont feel guilty with my food. thxx LINDAAA SUNNN ILY SO MUCHHH
ok but why do I feel like a mom watching Linda’s baby pictures when we’re not even related-
Right??
We are not related and she's older than me LMAO
Girl you don’t realise how many people you’re helping, you’ve helped change my mindset towards food and exercise which is something I thought id never have a healthy mindset towards, thank you and keep doing what ur doing 💗💗💗
I’ve never felt more touched by something in a while and I just wanted to tell you cause I don’t comment ever but truly did make me happy.

This made me realize, true glow-up is the journey where you found yourself!
When I was a kid I hated my body. I was always told by the doctor that I was overweight and she asked if I exercised and if I liked any sports and told me to workout more. I dreaded going to the doctor and stepping on the scale. The first doctor that didn't bring up my weight made me feel almost a sense of relief and the tension that I held went away so quickly and made me feel so good. I still don't really like sports but I've changed my diet and started working out at home and seeing this video, seeing the pain in your eyes when you read some of those parts... I was and somewhat still am feeling what I did when I was a kid. But I'm working on myself and Linda, you are truly amazing. The things you say in your videos make me feel great and I bet it makes others feel amazing as well. Thank you.

I cant remember the last time a yt video made me cry... I think it was 50pc because I felt so terrible for young linda but 50pc because your story is literally my story.. And it's the first time I've heard someone talk so openly about it, and made me remember memories I had blocked from being an overweight child. I've lost over 50 pounds recently and have fallen into a terrible vicious cycle of restriction and over exercising, but after watching your videos linda, I've finally realised something.. Idk what is id yet but I want to live again without counting every single calorie.. Thank you Linda xxxx
I'm currently suffering with an ED, and was 'dieting' myself to lose weight and fat,, but this video has made me actually eat tea today. Thank you, Linda.
I hope you recover or continue recovering from your eating disorder they aren’t pretty and I hope you don’t relapse
You are so strong.
You have the strength to change, you have the strength to be whoever you want and do whatever you want. And that's the prettiest part os life
I hope you recover from you eating disorder
P.S: I am from Brazil, so English is not my first language. Sorry if I wrote something wrong
@@mariaclp11 I’m from Brazil too, and you wrote everything perfectly
@@rubymarkoski3637 Thank you ever so much ♡
@@mariaclp11 Thank you for everything, your English (coming from a Brit) is wonderful and truly coherent; I hope you go far in life - you're truly an angel ♡
I was going through a really bad time (weight-wise) when I came across this video. After not eating for weeks, I watched this and went and ate a slice of cake. Linda. What can I even say, you changed my life. Its because of you that I'm eating, that I'm here, and that I love myself. Two words spelling 'thank you' will NEVER be able to express my gratitude, but none the less, thank you!
linda's videos are the hug we didn't know we needed
you inspired me so much to the point where I can't even comprehend and you are the only few reasons I chose to love and accept my body, you made me who I am Linda, thank you.
it is beautiful to see this video when I'm turning 20, dealing with my body issues, my enoughness. Linda, this is such a heartwarming video, this is so brave to show us the ways you've passed. I want you to know that your self value can't be measured only with how you look but it can be measured with the way you smile, your beautiful relationship with your friends and family and how you treat people around you. Love you
I wonder how many people saw Linda in her teens and saw her as a bubbly, high-achieving fit girl who was absolutely killing it. Which she was, but was also deeply unhappy and struggling. Plenty of them probably wished they could be more like her. I guess we only really know what's going on with other people at a surface level so using someone else to measure yourself or set your goals will never bring you what you expect. Thanks for sharing this Linda and congratulations on half a million :)
