Time genuinely goes so fast. Imagine if this was reversed - she got to do a reaction video to the u now , more independent and free and living with friends and a happy relationship. She’d be speechless ♥️
Aww she wouldn't believe it was even possible I'm sure! Interesting concept ❤️
100%. This is such a beautiful thing to see. She's strong as a mf and I hope she recognizes it. She worked her ass off to get here.
@@harmonyhope1709This comment made me cry. Love this ❤
I think the most amazing transformation I’ve witnessed from this whole journey is watching your Personality blossom. I remember watching your first videos and thinking how quiet, sad, and how little you let your presence take up in the space around you. I’m so happy this journey has allowed not only people to get to know you but to watch YOU get to know YOU. The loud, silly and creative you! I love to see it! sending you the tightest hugs. Keep blossoming 🌱xx
thanks for the loveliest comment. hugs xxx
i think this video was so popular was because it’s so real, it’s so raw. there’s so much perfected, filtered content on youtube that where everything looks and sounds perfect. when you hear the crisps bag and the background noises, it’s almost like you’re really there with her.
the reason ur unique isn’t bc your super pretty (which is true)or the camera quality is great, it’s that you’re so honest
Completely agree. 100%!!!!
The most striking difference to me is in your eyes. Your eyes have become so bright and full of life now! Your skin and hair are also completely different now, brighter skin and fuller hair! I’ve recently relapsed due to a huge stress in my life, so come back to your channel to feel inspired to recover. 31 years I’ve had an eating disorder. I just want a life and some damn energy. I’m so tired all the time. It’s frustrating. I’m on the waiting list for trauma therapy for complex PTSD, if I lose any weight I’ll be taken off the list. I can’t let that happen, thanks for inspiring to try again ❤
im sorry but lose weight ull be taken off the list for trauma therapy??? thats so fucked! i hope everything goes ok nd u recover healthy
@@spookydid thank you 🙏 it is completely messed up. Apparently it’s because if weight is too low the brain can’t handle the intensity of trauma therapy. I do get it but to not have any support for the next 6 months is going to be hard 🫤
Wishing you the best, I'm rooting for you! You can do this, stay strong! It's worth it!
Ya I totally agree
Watched right from the start and beyond proud of you girl - you are smashing it every day and really help me with my mental health and accepting the set backs xxx
thank you 🤍 i’m so glad i can help xxxx
I remember watching your first video when I was inpatient for the first time. I remember comparing myself to you (EDs are so competitive as you obviously know!) and now I can't believe the progress we've BOTH made. It gives me so much hope to see someone do so well, and it motivates me to fully recover. If you, someone who struggled with an ED for much longer than I did, can recover, then so can I. I'm so so incredibly proud of you and thank you. Much love from Canada
i’m proud of us 🤍
A video on committing to recovery even when weight gain is not such a priority anymore would be really helpful. Now that I'm a 'healthy weight' I do find it harder to justify sticking to my meal plan when I don't have the mantra 'I need to gain weight' to fall back on. x
Same. It feels so hard and challenging when you are at a healthy weight. It would be great if she made a vid about it.
I would love it so much
If you can, you need to change the voice to : i want to take care of my body, i want to enjoy life to the fullest, a car can't drive without petrol and so can't i, my appareance doesn't define me.
Also is this a stage in recovory to let go of your mealplan a little ans try to eat the things you want at that moment, and then dont listen to what the ED whants (lower calorie, light, less, etcetera)
I genuinely miss your dad and mom’s reassuring voices behind the camera. They were so wonderful and warm with you! ❤️ I hope they are doing well.
I'd love to see a Q&A with them
Can completely relate to not recognising the ill version of ourselves. I get this when I look at ill photos and also when I think back to the way I behaved and the fears and rules I had around food. It's like I was possessed by the illness quite literally!
You have come so far and we are all extremely proud of you! Thank you for going through this process online for us all to see that it is possible to overcome
🥺❤️ thanks for being here !
Ro every time i falter in recovery, i watch you and it inspires me to get back up. thank you so much
keep going lovely ⭐️🌷✨
I just LOVE how far you've came, it's so wholesome and melts my heart, I've never been so proud of someone in my life! 💗
you’re so sweet !!!!
Your hair is so much shinier and fluffier now! You're absolutely glowing with health. Your skin and eyes are so much brighter, too. Congratulations on your recovery, you've done fantastic work! You're truly an inspiration, ups and downs included. You've provided such an honest and refreshing take on recovery and shone a bright light for others at the end of the tunnel. We started recovery at a similar time and your videos made me feel less alone, and made scary meal times much more manageable having someone "there with me". Thank you for what you do. Keep shining, love!
It’s funny seeing the little flashes of genuine Ro personality in the first video beginning to break back through. I remember watching those videos when they first came out and hoping you made it through. So so glad that you did.
It’s crazy how time flies, you are genuinely the best version of yourself once in recovery and this goes to everyone struggling with any ed:))
🥺
Ro, I think a video about stomach bloating and this part of recovery would be really helpful. I'm dealing with it, but it is really hard every day having this feelings. I would totally appreciate it.
It's weird how one can feel so proud of somebody they never met. Every time I see you smile, see you with friends, see you enjoying (even the tiniest bit) I just feel a pang of proudness through my body. You are doing this!
You are looking so healthy and so much better. My daughter is now eating solids, still in hospital but looking forward to getting her home. Miss her soooooo much xxx well done you kick it's arse!!!!
So excited to watch this new video !! Thank you for all these videos and your hard work Ro. All the support you’re giving each and everyone of us is just amazing, so I really hope that we can support and help you as well in any way possible ! Please always remember that you can take all the rest you need and there is absolutely no need to worry about not posting every week or taking breaks ! Please feel free to take a break whenever you feel like it. Your happiness and overall (mental) health is the most important thing. I wish you all the best and I am more than proud of you. You did great today and as always, you look absolutely stunning :) xxx
To see you and your recovery in this past year, I feel so inspired! I'd say I'm a lot further in recovery now than when I first started following you, and I still have a way to go, but your videos are really what inspire me to make a final push. Knowing that I'm not alone and that other people can do it too!
I’ve been here since day one when u started this channel and I’m so so proud of how far you’ve come 😭 🤍
thank you 🥰
Can’t wait to watch this when I get home! Just challenged myself to a meal at nandos by myself! Thank you for being an inspiration! I’m so proud of how far you’ve come ❤️
That’s amazing!!!
Very proud of you
best wishes...not easy to challenge yourself..
so proud of you ⭐️✨🌷🤍
@@stell8012 thank you 😊
I remember watching this video when it first came out - when I too was only just beginning recovery. I actually feel like I’ve grown alongside you, so thank you for making these videos 💗
I just watched that video and straight onto this one, and my goodness girl you’re GLOWING!! In the other video you were beautiful, but your eyes are sparkling now! Keep smashing it girl, such an inspiration
It gas genuinely been a pleasure to watch you grow- the change is insane ro, you seem so much more free and happy and I can't believe you're the same person I started watching back then
thank you for sticking with me 🥰
It's just so wonderful to see the changes you've made, both mentally and editing wise lol
Seriously thank you so much for starting this channel! I was at my lowest point when I started watching you more than a year ago and I've always been a person of affirmations and good thinking, it all helped me to reach recovery and even though I struggle sometimes, knowing that I made it this far, and knowing you wouldn't give up so easily motivates me to keep on track
This gives me so much hope, everytime I feel like recovery isn't worth it I watch one of your videos because you prove that it always is 💗
That video was actually the first I saw of yours and I remembered feeling so proud for this girl I didn’t even know. You have come so far and has been very inspiring to thousands of people and you really should give the greatest thanks to yourself 💜 (and your amazing parents ofc)
Oh yay I'm so excited I've been waiting. You're just in time too. Today's been a rough day for recovery. You always make it easier
This video was so emotional to watch so I can’t even imagine how it felt for you to look back at your old struggles, I’m so proud of you for getting to this point, love you Roisin
It's wonderful for you to see how far you have come, and best of all be proud of it. You look so much healthier and happier now, and it is clear that will continue far into the future. Fingers crossed you can overcome those final anorexic feelings soon so you can finally leave that part of your life behind and fully embrace the newfound view on life this has given you. You are still such an inspiration for so many, myself included, and you showing us recovery is possible is more precious than any self-help resource out there. Thank you Ro! Xx
You’ve come so far ☺️
Seeing how much more energy and happiness you have is such a good reminder of how worth it recovery is, but it’s so difficult. So proud x❤️🙏
it’s so amazing how far you’ve come!! I’m literally here since that first video and I am so proud of you Ro💖
I’ve watched you from your early days and it’s been so inspiring to see you grow🙃
It’s so amazing to see you on the other side, I’m so proud of how far you’ve come ❤️
This was so emotional for me to watch. I consider myself 90% recovered now, and I completely relate about look back at a past version of myself who I genuinely don’t recognise. I was crying at the end, it’s so beautiful to see your growth, and just know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, your videos helped me so much in my journey so thank you❤️🥺💗💘🌸
perspective is everything. it's amazing watching you look back and see how much you've grown.
my fave part of those old videos was listening to your family's encouragement at the table. it was so heartwarming.
i subbed to you when you posted your very first video! i loved you (and i think others did too) because you were so authentic and kind, and comforting in an odd way? although i’ve never struggled with a legitimate eating disorder, something about watching you and supporting your journey felt like i was supporting a friend. and with every video, as you got a little step farther and celebrated your little wins, i felt like i could celebrate mine too, and you gave me so much hope and still do. it’s incredible to see how far you’ve come.
Honestly Ro you are glowing! You're skin is flawless, your hair, I want it lol, and you have the most pretty eyes. I'm so happy for you. I remember watching this video when it first uploaded and was invested in your journey and you've come so far. Very proud of you🥰
I’ve been watching this channel for so long! This made me realize. Also you’ve helped me not go into an eating disorder I didn’t even know was developing. So. Thank you!
I'm so so proud of you and work you've done. I was in very similar position to your's and I remember watching your videos while eating.
Seeing you now is just incredible and makes me want to cry. I remember recording myself when I was in a really bad condition and your old video remind me of that. It's so scary how even a simple smile was a challenge not mentioning walking or talking. I'm so glad that we can finally see how horrible this disorder is and thank you for inspiring me!
Been watching from the start and it's crazy how fast that times has gone! You've done so incredible 💙
I've been there since this video and you've come so far!
It is so so motivating to see that and you've helped me so much, so thank you ❤️
i am so proud of you, so proud of all of us who went through this! recovering is indeed the best thing ive ever done in my life
ugh this is so encouraging to see how far you’ve come!!! i’m so happy and proud for u ❤
i struggle currently w binge eating disorder which is kinda on the other side of the spectrum in some ways, but watching your journey and how you tackled recovery actually is really inspiring for me and has helped a lot on my own recovery (which is still ongoing lmao, but im in a better spot than i’ve been in the past at least)
finding a healthy relationship w food again is harddddd so it’s so encouraging to see that it’s possible !
You currently just radiate strength. Your transformation is truly inspiring.
it’s so great to see you now: relaxed, diverse facial expressions, humor and many things more. Congratulation that you made it!!! 😃 You can be so proud and happy, even in difficult moments.
the way you speaks shows how much hard work you’ve put into recovery and your videos are a great motivation for me to further fix my relationship with food. thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your experiences. you are really helping make a change, even if its small. also your hair looks so beautiful like this
girl you are glowing, I'm so happy to see how much progress you've made. I feel similarly looking back at old journals!
this made me go and look back at some of my old, private videos I recorded when I was at my worst. It’s really eye opening to see, how far I’ve come - and I’m so thankful for trusting the process. Thanks for reminding me to keep fighting Ro ❤️❤️
I watched that first video and I was so impressed by how far you had come then. So happy to see how much further you progressed and were you are now! Also, your personality was already showing in that first video and that is why it took off. And because you were brave enough to show your inner struggle to help others understand those who suffer from eds better. I think your parents might have had a little part in it as well, because I personally was really impressed by the way they supported you through every meal.
You’re such an inspiration Ro, it’s amazing seeing how far you’ve come ❤
I love how your parents were handling this! They're being so open with the topic and really supportive and helpful and remaining calm, even though it certainly can't have been easy for them either.
Watching this made me really happy. To see the contrast and how much more joyful you are. Makes me wanna hug you. You are doing so well and that's just so amazing. I'm really Happy for you. I am at a way more healthy point in life now too. The contrast in this video just shows that you recover for a good reason and that we should never want to go back. Love you so much and thanks for everything :)
Super proud of you. Thank you so much for inspiring us and bringing us along on your journey. You have no idea how much you've helped. Much love ❤️❤️
Must be so strange to watch yourself back like this. It's so lovely to see how your mindset and whole demeanor has changed. I remember watching this video when you first put it on CZcams. I had no idea how your recovery was going to go but I was SOOOO hopeful that you would be able to do it. So proud of the progress you've made so far. I know life isn't rainbows and butterflies but it has definitely changed for the better in so many ways 💪❤️ so glad you chose to be brave and challenged yourself constantly in recovery 🙏 thank you for continuing to make these videos as I know how helpful I find them, certainly during an unexpected relapse last year. You're a 🌟 xx
Loving your curtain bangs. Really suits you, your hair looks so lovely and healthy compared with this first video ❤️
Also very jealous of your very healthy looking cheese plant!! Lol
i am in tears. you give me (+ many others) SO much hope for the future. you’re a beacon of light in the recovery community. thank you ❤️
RO!!! i actually started watching your vids pretty shortly after you uploaded that very first one, and i just now rediscovered your channel and ngl i totally got emotional from seeing this too! you've come so so far and im so happy to see u in a better place now :(
It's amazing how far you've come mentally. You seem so more confident and happy and free these days. What an amazing job you have done getting here! It's been a long struggle for sure. But you're doing so well.
I’ve been here since the start and you have helped me so much in my recovery. I remember watching ur earlier videos so deep in my eating disorder, thinking I wouldn’t ever recover. Im so proud with how far you’ve come :,) ur doing amazing ro. We love u
You are glowing! ✨ And you are so brave for overcoming this, really. I struggle since 18 years with anorexia and bulimia and I appreciate you so much ♥️
Oh my god. you and literally your parents as well have helped me in my early recovery soso much, I can’t even describe it. Love you
Wow, I haven't watched your videos for a while but for some reason this video randomly showed up on my recommendations list today. Ro, you look amazing!! It's unbelievable to see the difference between where you were then and where you are now!
wow!!!!! this gives me so much hope
this made me so emotional
how much youve changed and grown and became a incredible girl !! i cant believe it either
I’ve watched since day 1 and you are an incredibly strong person and you are helping so many others on their recovery !
I love your early videos. You are so real and so forthright in them- you were desperate to recover by any means necessary and I truly believe that’s what resonated with so many people. 💜
I love seeing you smile and glow right now! I saw some of your videos way back and related to them in a completely different way (specific phobia related avoiding behavior) and was so proud of you for how you challenged your anorexia, because I could see how much fear it induced. Coming from my own phobia, I know how extremely hard it is to challenge that fear again and again, day after day. Wow, I am excited for you and I feel proud of you, it is great to see you smile and in such a good place!
I’ve been here since you posted that video ! So proud of you
Whoa! This channel just popped back into my recommended after a year away & there’s such a massive difference between the old and new her! Looking healthy, strong, and beautiful - honestly the transformation and the courage it took is mega inspiring 😮
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE proud!!! Love how brilliant you are. You inspire me every day!!♥️♥️
omg i just watched that video last week i believe, and just now got this one recommended to me and it makes me so happy!! im so glad you’re doing better
I’ve followed since the first video and have been recovering with your videos the whole time! It’s amazing how far you’ve come and I hope to reach my goals soon! Thank you for your content ☺️
ur genuinely like the coolest person ever for so many reasons but especially your recovery I look up to you so much you're such an icon
you are such an inspiration!! You have inspired and saved so many ppl. I love you sm.
i found you from quite the start and im mean look how far you had come and iam soo proud of you( not even the universe is so huge) ;)♥️ keep on going i think with your personality you can do everything
It’s so amazing to see how far you’ve come. You should be so proud of yourself for not giving up on that girl that so desperately needed to nourish her body and soul. Lots of love 🤎🤎🤎
I am so so SO proud of how far you've come ❤ I was going down a slippery slope just before finding your channel and you helped me recover & I can't thank you enough. Cheers Ro, you inspire so many and you should feel proud of yourself ❤ you look absolutely stunning, youthful and just so beautiful
PS- I still absolutely love biscoff spread and wont deny myself of it anymore ❤
You are genuinely the most beautiful person I’ve ever seen. I’ve been watching you from the beginning and it’s been incredible to see you get your life back. You’ve helped me and so many other people so much
so crazy to see how far you’ve come, forever my inspiration i love you ro🫶🫶🫶
I saw your first video and I'm so proud of you! You have come such a long way and you have made wonderful progress! Thank you for being brave and sharing your journey!
I’ve been in recovery for 2 months marking tomorrow! thank you so much because your videos have helped me loads with going all in for recovery. I’m so proud of how far you’ve come and it’s so inspiring to see where you are now!
its so incredible I see two diffrent people, and especially I see the most brave young women
Oh my gosh, I watched your fear foods video back when you first posted it, and I was deep down in my own ED at the time. Your video helped kickstart something in me, cause deep down I was sick of it all too and hated where my life was and was headed. So thank you so much, I'm on the other side with you and it feels, ironically, so much lighter! ❤️
You look so radiant. I'm proud so of you. When I started watching your videos, I was dealing with depression. I've come out of it now, but your videos were very comforting. I felt less alone, knowing that you were trying to get healthier and in my own way, I was trying to be healthier too. I'm happy for you.
So proud of you Ro! 💞 I too understand the hardships of ed recovery. Even though I also get ed thoughts from time to time, Ive conquered nearly all my fear foods. I can finally eat freely, which makes recovery SO worth it. These days I find myself feeling nostalgic and grieving for the girl I was before my ed, before it took away my identity. I don’t know why, but does anyone else relate? It’s hard to accept that the past me is no longer me, and that in order to move on, I should treat this as a loss. What should I do? Should I grow and become a new version of myself,or is my past self still here?
I can't believe I was there when you started and now I'm watching you make this video. You're literally glowing! I can't thank you enough really, that one video helped me recover and now I'm fully recovered!! Thanks
Watching you heal has been so wonderful. Your parents have always warmed my heart with their support ❤️ So many of us did not have that and we all needed it.
This is amazing! So proud of you! Look how far you have come, you should be incredibly proud of yourself, you made it you beautiful human being xxx
I remember your old videos, and this literally made me cry im so proud of you, and your younger self would be too !
It’s actually amazing how untriggering this video was! so many of these sorts of videos dredge up bad habits and thoughts but this is so positive 💛
One of the things that got me in this video is how supportive your parents are throughout. They’re like your cheerleaders and it’s a beautiful thing to see. Love that ❤️
This video made me cry. For all of us who had or still have ED thank you for sharing your journey and making us feel less alone ❤️
This is now my favorite video of yours. Wow. I feel so honored to listen to your thoughts on your old self. Such valuable information
I used to follow you on TikTok and was recently thinking about your channel since I haven’t seen in over a year. I was worried you deleted your TikTok due to a relapse, but I remembered that I watched your first CZcams video so I searched it up and was so so so happy to see this video. Thank you for continuing to post and congratulations on how far you have gotten in your recovery. Seriously a role model. ❤️
How incredible that you have this footage to look back on and see just how far you have come. You should be so insanely proud of yourself, and like others have said, it gives us all that bit more hope that we can get through this hell of an illness. The other side is out there, so thank you.
your hair has become so much thicker!! i started all in recovery around a year ago and i also forgot how many behaviours i used to obsess over; eating is just so much more normal for me now that i cant even believe it had so much control over my life!! as much as i still have harder days in terms of body image im finally starting to feel like im recovered rather than still in active recovery which is such a lovely feeling :)))
Been watching from the start and words cannot describe how incredibly proud I am of you! This gives me so much hope and I know it does to many others. Keep shining lovely! ❤️
Just finished a really big late night snack. Love your new hair Ro. You are glowing❤️
its so nice to see you finally happy and being more like yourself
Its amazing to see how far you have come. You are glowing! Your parents must have been terrified of losing you and now they must be soo proud and relieved.
