This is very different from the rest of ‘losing weight’ videos. You understand exactly what goes on in our brain. People say ‘oh just eat clean, don’t eat sweet, do steps’
They don’t understand that we know how to lose weight. It’s the constant thoughts that are torturous. The pattern needs to be understood and broken.

My food addiction turned me into a bulimic and anorexic. Life its just torture

i like the mindset.. food is just food. You eat it, u poop it..

I have been trying to lose weight for years (I am 19 years old). I have been to many nutritionists. The problem is that I keep thinking I can't eat something, and it stays in my head, and when I deviate even slightly from my plan, I feel guilty and end up overeating even more. I hate this

the thing is no one takes me seriously just because I look "skinny" like they don't know goes on

i’ve been stuck for over a decade. it’s ruined my entire life, literally and honestly. i’ve tried SO many different things, so many books too, and nothing has ever worked

i get so jealous of the people around me going on those appetite suppressant injections and not even wanting food anymore, whilst i would never be considered for one as i’m technically a healthy bmi (but only bc i over exercise and stuff to try and counteract it) so i’m basically just in hell with no way out

thank you for talking about this and i look forward to see your advice— and i also pray this doesn’t just end up as a “buy my content” thing like many others 😓🤲

Same that just happened to me today. Woke up after making a mess of my stomach yesterday. Promised myself today I would behave, and as my stomach hurt, I would drink water, tea, electrolytes. I got out of the house for a walk. Got to a supermarket… almost behaved. I bought skyr, yogurt… but before leaving I gave up. Got myself an ice cream. And also a marshmallow protein bar. Told myself I needed proteins. But then I ate both, immediately, while walking. And as soon as I got home I put spreads and oreos and chocolate in the yogurt and ate the whole thing. Then switched to chips. I know that my problem is my emotions. I am in a toxic relationship and I feel trapped. I tried to leave many times and never managed. I hoped I could feel some control over my life tracking food and getting thinner. And ended up thinking constantly about food and gaining 4 kg. I hate my life. I wish I could feel normal around food again. But I would have to solve other things before. And I cannot.

I always crave for food, I feel like I’m a food monster. If I would let myself just eat whatever I have in my mind, i would be eating 20-30K calories a day. But I’m holding back the cravings never go I’m lost asf

i feel good to know that there are people who feels exactly how i feel around food❤ its just after i start.. the thought of continuing this forever like it feels like torture, the feeling that u cant EVER give in

Some people might say she’s weak, no discipline, lazy , but i see someone in pain someone exhausted by food thoughts trapped in a cycle that impossible to escape. She’s ashamed to even look in the mirror some days . Even when she’s hoppeless a part of her still believes she can get out of it . She starts over again and again but she fails every single time

I came from TikTok, this video has helped me a lot. I understand the struggle so much and I appreciate you making yourself available to help other people with the same struggle. ❤

“It’s just food”
That’s the way, i thought of it when i was at my heaviest 170LBS. I saw food as just “food.” I ate whenever i was hungry, i just wanted to change the way i ate since it wasn’t healthy and i didn’t feel confident about myself(mainly ate fast food and wanted to be better educated on what i ate) and wanted to eat healthier.

The outcome was I ended up losing 40 LBS, and sometimes i wish i had that mindset again, i don’t miss fast food i feel disgusted by it. It’s mostly sugar cravings i love pastries. Cakes, mostly sweets. and i feel like the reason why my cravings are so strong is because i depraved myself of those things for so long and that restrictive mentality of “i can’t have this.” “It’s bad” i remember a fitness influencer saying
“Stop calling so much attention to binges and calling them cheat meals it makes a negative feedback loop which you will repeat, you don’t have a relationship with food you have a relationship with PEOPLE. Food is an inanimate object, you have a PERSPECTIVE on food. Take the moral value out of it.” Supposedly that perspective shift will make you stop craving as much, i deleted my calorie tracking app as it’s just stressing me out and making food noise worse, hopefully one day i can just see food as a boring normal topic and not something i think about constantly. You give me so much hope to finally feel normal :)

Thank you for this, I've been struggling for the past days and this video made me feel better. Keep going, Your videos helped someone today to do better.

Girl that video at the beginning is so relatable. Literally me

Thank you. You really just summed up everything I’m currently going through right now, and you’ve given me hope in knowing there’s a way out. So thank you.

I think eating like that (I’m sometimes like that too) is connected to feelings and emotions.
When we’re connected to ourselves and to what we’re feeling, the urge to eat — which usually comes as a distraction — isn’t needed anymore.

currently battling this but luckilly i have support to help with overcoming it but i know its gonna take time cause it really does impact your quality of life cause most of the negative emotions that i feel are connected to the addiction

You look so much better now! Congratulations on improving your life. I'm sure life is treating you way better than in 2020.

im 16 and i sadly can relate to everything you've said, currently in the middle of healing
