![Super Stressful Day With No Food Rules! [What I Eat In A Day]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/5kDg2FOg1JM/mqdefault.jpg)
As someone who is an athlete, I do better with exercising in the late afternoon to evening, particularly with running. I feel like that if I try to run in the morning, I'm feeling pressured to finish by a certain time, even if I know I have enough time to complete it. In the late afternoon or evening, I feel like I can take more of my time, as it's the last thing on my agenda, and I don't have to stress about being anywhere at a particular time.
Love that you found what works for you! 👏
"Bodies change over time." So true! My teenaged body looked different from my late 20s body that looked different from my post-partem body that looked different from my Depression body that looked different from my now perimenopausal body. And I'm sure I'll look different again on the other side of menopause. But alas, fans of celebrities and influencers don't like change and it's sad that we put so much pressure on them to be a certain way forever
Isn’t it an amazing this when you can think about it neutrally how our bodies change and that’s okay?! It’s the ebb and flow of LIVING! So sorry to hear about some of the struggles but hopefully you’re/on the path to thriving!
Hi Colleen! This doesn't have much to do with the video, but I wanted to thank you. Your videos, whether it be shorts or normal long ones, have really helped me to finally go into recovery. This is my first week and it's So hard but u inspire me to push through. Thank you so much ❤
You are amazing!❤
You’ve Got Mail is my number one annual fall movie!! 😎
I love that you post on Thursdays! The weekend is when I feel the most anxious about my eating and the strongest urges to restrict certain foods. These posts make it a nice way to ease that and work on some eating disorder therapy skills.
If you go to Hallmark you can find fall movies this time of year. All romance type probably but they focus on all the fall things.🍁
Thank you!
Hearing that size 16 is the average size made me feel both relieved and excited as well as angry for feeling so deceived. Love your videos!!
For me (regarding watching influencers) who is insecure in my new IE journey. I can see why people get bent out of shape when one of the people they are following does something that looks different than the old rules still strong in their head. I have in the past clung to every word, process and action of dieters to attempt to attain the exact results. If I had seen one of them do something that was against my black and white thinking at the time, I would have had a physical response to it. Right or wrong, it's not the influencer who causes a bad or good reaction. It's the state of mind of the consumer that is the reason for the reaction. When I'm in a good place with food, things don't bother me. I am comfortable and accept that that's the influencers journey/style. Not them breaking one of my rigid rules. Thanks for this episode. It helps me be aware of where my mind is when I do have a reaction to what someone says or does.
So glad you like the episode and thanks for sharing a bit of your story ❤️❤️ you got this!
Look forward to this every Thursday!
Aaah I’m so glad! 🥰
You’ve got mail! Also While You were Sleeping, and a lot of hallmarks! 😂
Ugh you’ve got mail is soooo good!
This was fun! First one I've seen. I think ridged thought is the downfall. Accepting and loving your body, mind and soul doesn't mean you were fake because you decided to change and also love and accept the new phase just as equally. I just think we need to all collectively love ourselves and only focus on that. As they say, comparison is the thief of joy.
Also sorry you're on your own for fall movies lol I LOVE Hocus Pocus. I just think halloween/spooky movies are fall movies.
The problem is the Victoria secrete doesn't actually carry sizes for lots of women-
"Our bra sizes range from 30A to 44DD; however, we are not able to offer all bra styles in all sizes. When shopping our bras, we recommend using the available Filters to narrow to your desired size." - If they don't go up to DDD or E or F, then they are really missing out. So they can put whoever in the ads- but if you don't have these larger cup sizes- what good is it. (40/DDD here and no a 42/DD isn't the same)
Back in the day had to go to the office during my lunch break I would want to walk and read my book so I'd do both at the same time, people thought me weird but I didnt care. Now work from home still do it by jogging on the spot while reading my book 🤣. The cozy cardio reminded me of that.
Fall movie rec - October Sky! It’s got old-school Jake Gyllenhaal and is just a heart-warming story 😊
Thank you!! 😍😍
There are some movies focused on Thanksgiving - that would be fall, not just Halloween movies - Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, Pieces of April,
movie/series suggestions that are fall-themed: You've got mail (love it its a classic!), tMean girls,wilight, 90210, gossip girl, Gilmore girls.. think about 'back to school'-vibes
Gilmore!!!
To see if VS believe as they’re externally showing, look at their staff teams (aka, are those diverse, respected, inclusive?)
So I had never heard of Remi Bader before but damn that video of her made me tear up. I can't handle the way people treat others online, or how fans of someone think that an influencer owes them something for following them or think they can say whatever they want to them. Completely unhinged behavior. I hope she can heal from all this and live joyfully.
Great convos as always Colleen!
I’m still waiting for Victoria’s Secret to make bras for tiny boobed women. I think they still don’t even carry bras for gals my size. I don’t bother and shop at Walmart and save a lot of money.
I used to buy their bras when I wore a 32A. I think that was the smallest non-PINK size back then.
In some styles, I can get away with an A, but I'm really an AA. I'm a pre teen. LOL@@ashleystanley7941
Okay, so I need to say- I drink Diet Pepsi- but I do wish they would bring back the aspartame free version- and that the real data does show that aspartame has not been proven safe for people. The original work was messed up /botched and there was corruption in the FDA in how it ultimately was approved. While most don't consume a high enough dose- aspartame has been riddled with conflict for decades & is known to cause health issues. (I say all this while drinking a diet Pepsi a day.)
Here work is pretty decent and accurate - czcams.com/video/D8JqoCgSJmU/video.html
I think it’s a great step towards inclusivity on VS’ part, but Aerie has been inclusive from the get go, plus no airbrushing, etc.! It just shouldn’t be this hard 😩 And wouldn’t they make more sales if they showed all sizes of women how great they could look in their clothes?
I ❤️ aerie!
Not a movie, but a tv show
Over the garden wall
I agree, I think these brands just trying to do a cash grab over the current inclusive trend. I thought they're gonna hired a various body type models with showcasing various size of clothes.
Felt so yes us millennial women yesss just wanting to be that thin and now I just want to hold my younger self and bombard her with images of her own people and how beautiful we are as is
Is it possible to lose weight (medically necessary) while eating intuitively?
Weight loss gain or maintenance can happen- it depends where your body is at now in relation to where it wants to be/feels best at!
Hocus Pocus is amazing!
Noted!
It definitely feels like they’re checking off the diversity boxes. It seems like they’re pandering. I mean, I don’t want to see a woman like me modeling Victoria’s Secret underwear. I’m going to be honest. I didn’t have a problem with Cindy Crawford, Heidi Klum & Naomi Campbell growing up. I thought they were Barbie dolls basically. I thought they were gorgeous. I get kind of tired of everyone blaming everyone else for how they feel about themselves. It’s up to me to work on that, and to adjust my attitude. It isn’t up to society to pander to me & make sure my feelings aren’t hurt.
As for the influencer obsession, it is disturbing when people are THAT invested in strangers. The choices influencers make have nothing to do with me & cause nothing to change in my own life. It’s simple to stop following or subscribing to influencers we don’t agree with. 🤷🏻♀️
Because it’s lobster no explanation needed
Girl, why are you tiptoeing so much around your words? Just say it. It’s ok if some people don’t agree with you. I do actually agree with everything you said but it baffles me how ppl don’t really say directly what they think anymore because they’re so afraid of being perceived the wrong way.
Ive been loving the way vs and especially pink looks now. They write what sizes the models wear and their height, it combined with reviews really helps me know.
They've had plus sized people for a bit on pinks site, this new statement for vs is weird.
Edit: I usually care more for steps over perfection. If a brand tries, even to be fake, they're still achieving the same end goal.
👏👏 progress!!
It’s you I’m a big fan of you
Omg
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I'm not a fan of Victoria's Secret calling me a cis woman. I'm a woman. So yeah, not great.
