I think this video says it all and tells you the FULL story! It took me over a month to make and edit this video but I think it really captures my journey and I can't tell you how much it means to me to share this with you. I hope you enjoy this video as much as I enjoyed making it and thank you for making this year as amazing as it was...through all of the ups and downs, you guys were always there for me. I love you from the bottom of my heart. Enjoy! đ
Luv u stephenie
Hey Stephanie felt like forever !! Sending love your way đđđ
LOVE YOU STEPHANIE! HAVEN'T WATCHED YET BUT YOU ARE THE BEST â¤â¤ Keep being your authentic beautiful self xoxo đ
So proud and happy for you. You are such an inspiration to so many of us. Congratulations girl!!!!
I love you so much thanks for being so knowledgeable and speaking your real feelings even though it is so scary to lose all that amazing physique
The fact that people shamed her when she gained weight is so sad, she did what she needed to do to be physically and mentally healthy
Harjas Dhaliwal I have questions
Harjas Dhaliwal periot
She looks so healthy
it says a lot about society that when a woman takes care of herself and enjoys hereself that there is a societal backlash.
body types arenât real like that you canât draw conclusions from themđ.
She was never even "fat". She just gained weight and was bigger than she normally was. People who shamed her are just crappy.
lol
True
Honestly.
she got fat. period.
@@chloemajlinda3957 I think the problem is the way society presents the word fat and itâs not used as it should be. Yes she gained a lot of fat but that does not mean she is fat. It almost becomes an identifying word rather than a descriptive one.
dude i just cried at the end of this. i'm so happy you're happier after this and figured it all out. keep killing it
Did you seriously cry at this video?
@@powerboon2k itâs a girl
As somebody in all-in recovery from Anorexia, currently going through extreme hunger Stephanie is helping and motivating me so much!
Good on you for going through it! Good luck & keep up the good work!
I recovered from AN and went through every stage she mentioned. Extreme hunger is exhausting, and I understand how scary it can feel when you are experiencing it after having lived through such a difficult period in your life. Keep going, I hope that you are doing well, two years later!
It will pass. You will feel healthy and at peace again soon
Complete transparency and No ads? We donât deserve Stephanie.
Edit- yes, weâre all aware there are ads on the video now.
ad free is nice isnt it
I'm literally experiencing love at first sight w her rn. Like wow. What an amazing person!! I subbed for sure
Thereâs ad in the beginning for me
@@dahyunqtii3896 it was by youtube itself.
Adblock so its always ad free :P
Many fitness trainers and gurus don't want to admit that they have disordered eating habits. Thank you for being honest!
Not all fitness trainers and guru's have disordered eating habits, many don't sp many don't have to admit anything.
C Will well, yes, but theyâre obviously talking about the ones who do have disordered eating habits.
Not that it's bad- it's just bad to promote your audience to have the same disordered eating habits
@@Churros1616 what's SP?
@@Churros1616 Im sorry but most of which I have seen restrict for x amounts of days and then create a day to eat piles of calories and they call it cheat day or refeed or whatever fancy name they create. Most of them are trapped in binge restrict cycles and this is a form of disordered eating.
When he asked if she regrets it and she said "Not even for a second" I broke down in tears. This video inspired me and I will do the same thing as you. I have been pushing recovery back but now its time for a change.
i'm proud of you and i hope recovery is going well for you!!
i hope you have the best recovery in the world so proud of you
YES!!!!
You go! You can do this, Iâm almost a year in recovery, let me tell you, IT GETS BETTER! â¤sending much love
@@bottlecap6334 am gonna do it again....but am afraid of gaining lots of fat....how did it work for you?
Youâre so fuc*ing strong. Iâve watched your videos for years and I am always so impressed by how authentic you act and talk. So genuine and with all that physical plus psychological strength. Be proud of you everyday!! You did amazing no matter what any idiot out there believes.
Much love from Germany â¤
the fact that people called a perfectly healthy, in fact smaller than average, woman a "fat pig", shows something is very wrong and toxic with the modern fitness/fashion culture...
I believe you should be healthy, but what the fuck she wasn't even unhealthy..
Thank you
@@tonectic8234 she lost her period. I dont suppose its healthy
@@dashab8420 I obv meant that her weight wasn't unhealthy before she started to lose weight.
@@tonectic8234 oh. It wasn't clear. Sorry then
Never listened to a person for 40 minutes and be so engaged the whole time. Girl youâre amazing
Same. I love her videos. Thatâs hard to do is keep ppl watching your video the whole entire way.
Facts!
Agreed!!
yeah i cried the whole time
Madalina Alexandru
Only a statement made by females!
I'm a triathlete, powerlifter, former bodybuilder, trainer and a medical doctor. At times I've had to work on my relationship with food too. Your journey and this video took a lot of courage and intelligence. You are an inspiration! Thank you.
This made me cry...Why does the world hate fat so much? I'm sorry you had to go through that and so happy to see you come out on the other side
I do think it's important to encourage people to be healthy, but there are definitely a lot of people that take it way way too far and encourage an unhealthy body in the opposite direction.
I can understand her mother being concerned seeing her daughter gaining weight (especially if she has a mental condition that affects her self-control), but those comments from viewers are downright appalling and those people don't deserve to live on this planet and consume resources that could go to actually decent people.
There's a difference between obese and thicc. Nothing wrong with being soft, but it's not good to promote an image that is detrimental to someone's health. She's still well within a healthy weight range, if she added another 40~ pounds you'd probably being hearing people chime in about health issues, which are legit. Why people get upset when the people around them clearly want what's best for them I'll never know, but telling someone who is severely overweight that they need to lose weight is no worse than telling a coke addict they need to quit coke. Both are behaviors that will shorten your life as well as greatly diminish the quality of your life.
You don't have to be a size 6 or whatever, just be healthy enough that basic things in life are challenges for you (if you struggle going up a flight of stairs, probably time to address priorities.
@@michag4337 who caaaaares
@@idrk3707 this is what I'm here for the deep meaningful conversation. The day you are no longer able to communicate with other humans will be the greatest contrabution to society. Why bother posting a bull shit comment like that? Obviously you care, or you wouldn't have responded months later. Why not include something a little more meaningful? Do you disagree? Engage perhaps educate. 100% clown shoes.
@@michag4337 Agreed. This whole video is funny because her "fat" is most people's skinny. She talks about her being fat like she was 200lbs or something when in reality she was at most 15-20 lbs overweight..
Jeff - CEO of supportive boyfriends. Everyone needs a jeff
simon scott sounds like you are just talking out of your ass.
@@simonscott5104 They can't get together IRL because of quarantaine issues. Stephanie lives in Florida while Jeff is Canadian. Due to covid, they can't travel to see eachother.
đ§đťââď¸just shut upđ§đťââď¸
simon scott stfu . youâre straight up talking out your add . they cant get together because of quarintine and she her weight doesnât concern you .
Bella Clemencio Nah girl...that's bad advice. Every girl definitely does NOT need a yes-man in her life telling her a 10,000 calorie binge is okay, when she clearly has an eating disorder. I believe that would fit the definition of "enabler", hence, an unhealthy relationship.
How can be society so messed up that a beautiful woman have to JUSTIFY herself for EATING....
PREACH
No one should have to Justify why there eating.
Omg this hits hard
Nothing to do with that. She's in the fitness industry.
Andrew Think so she isnât allowed to gain weight?
I cried. She is very brave and had to have faith that it would all work out. That and all the other very heavy things she has had to endure in her life. I feel like sheâs like how I would see my daughter and I want to hug and love her. â¤
As someone who has struggled with her body image and an eating disorder for over a decade.. I decided to go all in last June and have repaired my relationship with food and myself. You're such an inspiration
She fixed a whole life of improper eating and body image issues in one year. She SHOULD be proud of herself. And especially going through this on social media, with all the hater. It takes immense courage and strength. With all the meltdowns and emotional roller coaster she stuck with it! So much respect to you!
Laura Zhu i so agree on this one! I couldnt even handle the same.
You summarized it perfectly! Her journey is so admirable
Stephanie is a hero!!
Exactly, the swollen stage, and bloated stomach stage, brings many like myself back to under-eating...
but seems many silly men in this comment section like skeletons, so at least I should have some admirers... đŹđ
This could be a documentary on Netflix, just saying đ
It definitely should have been!
Was thinking the same thing !!
This SHOULD be a documentary on Netflix..
Yessss
IF THIS AINT THE TRUTH!
This is such a great use of the influence she has. She really impacted the fitness community in such a healthy way just by doing what was best for her. What a role model!
I cried during this. I think I want to try- I donât know if Iâm ready yet nor do I know how to figure out if I am. Thanks for this video, Stephanie. I donât want to take anything away from Stephanie with this comment because she really does deserve so much credit, but I also want to say that Jeffâs reactions and commentary are so helpful to hear and so loving and encouraging. Hearing that your significant other loves you no matter what you look or feel like is one thing, watching it be completely and entirely true is another.
Can we just talk about how amazing Jeff was throughout this entire process? Because he was really amazing.
Cassie D. Best partner ever!
Yeah he is super supportive đđ
I look up to him, he is a solid dude.
niftysheep Your statement is too real! Being a kind and supportive partner SHOULD be the norm not an exception.
YES!!!! Jeff is so supportive! I'm so happy Steph has someone she can open up to without fear of judgement.
What you donât realize is, even if you lost the respect of the fitness side by going all in and gaining weight to fix your health, you gained an incredible amount of support from the eating disorder community. Even though you are different than us, you still had the same symptoms we have: extreme hunger, fear of gaining weight, amenorrhea, 24/7 food fixations, and a damaged metabolism.
Iâm sure watching your journey has helped countless of sufferers into venturing out of their comfort zone and aiming towards recovery. đđ
That's the thing though .. She DID/DOES have an eating disorder. Even though she called it "Extreme hunger" it is an ED. She described feeling full but still wanting to eat and eat and eat and that is called bulimia. Could be exercise bulimia or just overeating bulimia. She also had anorexia where she was afraid to eat, gain weight and had amenorrhea.
Pink Rainbow no, she has disordered eating. She didnât feel guilty for eating in excess and compensate by purging through exercise. Eating disorders and disordered eating are two completely different things. Unless using food as a coping mechanism, itâs not a diagnosable eating disorder.
Pink Rainbow regardless or whether she had one or not, itâs not your job nor is it appropriate for you to diagnose her. Steph has been so open and honest through her journey and many people have claimed she had an ED, so donât you think she would have talked about that by now?
My_Butt I didnât realize you were the original commenter. I very much agree with your original comment, but not with the bulimia part at all.
@@pinkrainbow1 Eating disorders are mental illnesses. Steph's extreme hunger was completely physiological. Her wanting to "eat and eat" was her body's lack of hunger cues, not her mind telling her she needed to.
Girl you're literally saving lives, I'm so glad you've put this out there đ Keep going
Just came across this channel. Jeez! This lady gains 40+ pounds and looks like what I want my "after" weight loss picture to look like. You are gorgeous! Don't listen to the haters.
I don't know why she looks prettier and healthier now ! Her body is in the best shape and her face is so fresh
Because a full figure, full face looks healthier and better
Magazines messed us up. She looks her best now. When she got bigger she looked more and more vibrant.
If your body isn't getting what it needs it won't look healthy even if you are muscles on muscles.
Geez, nobody thinks she looked better leaner? Regardless, as long as she's healthy and happy that's the best.
Natural beauty is always the best
I have such a girl crush on this woman. She's incredibly intelligent, kind, driven, and absolutely stunning!
Ikr
Definitely a great supportive man!!
You are such an inspiration â¤ď¸â¤ď¸ I've followed your journey from the start (and before), and it's so moving to watch.
I'm so extremely happy for you â¤ď¸â¤ď¸
Lol đ. She is very girl crush-worthy.
Edit: Woman Crush is a better way of saying it. I agree with the other commenter.
And I have to add something that might be fucking rude and offensive but in order for me to realize that sheâs just as human as I am, I needed to see her cry (last year) about how she felt.
Like she is so incredibly intelligent, kind and stunning, as you say, that it was hard for me to compare myself to her.
Now I just know that I am a piece of shit but thatâs not the point.
Sheâs fucking awesome.
I just wish everybody could see this video.. we need to stop putting so much pressure on how we look and rather focus on our happiness! Being skinny isnt gonna get you far in life if you arent happy and actually experiencing life in the best ways with your own body
I didn't go all in, but doing weekly cheat-days has eventually brought me to my setpoint, and I feel great. Thank you, Stephanie. You are an angel in disguise.
This shows that girls tend to go so hard on themselves. Like her .. looking so beautiful at every weight .. even she was upset ... every body is beautiful
That's sexist
But important to note that sheâs happiest at her healthiest
@@talelravaui1356 How? its true yea men can be hard on their bodies but most of the time people see girls saying something about it but its not sexist. its just stereotypical but the stereotype is true
"every body is beautiful"
Don't lie.
@@jimraynor7788 What she meant was that every body is beautiful in it's own way, and just because your not somebody's 'Type' it doesn't mean that your not beautiful at all. I think that putting down people's body types can really impact their self image - something the beauty and cosmetic industry thrives off of.
However, I get what you mean about not all - i.e. those bodies that are severely over or under weight because it puts you at serious risk of all sorts of health problems. The mainstream media is to blame about sending such mixed messages about health and fitness - there is no 'one-size-fits-all' approach to it; you have to figure out what works for you using the science. :)
she literally had an eating disorder and people were constantly commenting on her weight.. so stupid. those comments could have been incredibly harmful to a less strong individual.
I've been in recovery for three years and still fall back into restriction anytime someone comments on my weight. people need to mind their own business.
Exactly. They think theyâre doing something when they say âomg sheâs obese nowâ âokay go ahead, eat urself to obesityâ when she was killing her body to stay that lean. They need to check THEIR facts of whatâs healthy and what isnt
@@amandamysong preach
@maccajoe - She didn't go to another extreme weight wise. People were just so used to seeing her so small for so long that when she started to gain weight they thought she was obese because they weren't used to seeing her at that size. Yes, she did overeat at points during this journey, but she tried to maintain a more well-balanced diet and consult her physician along the way.
@maccajoe Hello, did you miss the part where she said that she's losing weight?
@maccajoe the other extreme was recovery.
I really appreciate you sharing your journey with us. First for showing/popularizing all in and second for being so vulnerable. Iâve started going all in and on days that Iâm struggling I just watch your videos and know that itâs normal, Iâm not alone, and Iâm doing whatâs best to regulate my hunger and my relationship to my body. Thank you
I canât get over how supportive Jeff is â¤ď¸ so sweet and rare. Iâm sure it made a world of a difference to have your S/O in your corner calling you beautiful
Jeff is 11/10 best boyfriend, the man is too good for this world
I mean, he is Canadian đđ
Feels like a weird assumption for someone you literally do not know... That's like teenager level naivety.
@@GlaciusDreams I think it's a fair assumption. Even now as an adult, I give people the benefit of the doubt.
From a womans perspective I think Jeff is a good supportive/understanding guy. I think back to men I've dated who would have flipped if I decided to do an "All In" diet. It would have caused issues in the relationship if my body changed.
@@byebyegoogle9246 I'm sorry you went through that.
Her face when sheâs eating and happy... sheâs such a foodie I feel like sheâs on cloud 9
Right! 𤣠Her eyes got big with every single first bite, made me want to try it all!
I wonder what people's reaction would be if she weighed 175 lbs instead of 125.
She doesn't weight 125..
@@SurrealisticSlumbers I'm pretty sure she does weigh around 175lbs currently. She used to weigh 125 before her weight gain journey
omg I literally love that about her too
There is so little metered, honest content anywhere anymore. I am literally crying as I think back on what you sharing this journey has been like for me as a viewer. Thank you immensely for your powerful message of health, wellness and self love. I love you Stephanie and the positive community you created on social media.
Literally shed tears watching this. You are so brave and I am so proud of your journey. You've inspired me to truly take care of myself and to listen to my body. Thank you for all the work you've done for this community đ
I wish people would just normalize never mentioning someone elseâs body!
Is it cuz youâre fat and donât want to take responsibility?
State Enforced Butt Play dude you took it too far. she is obviously happy the way she is. and itâs not your place to judge her body or her figure. đ
I wish people would normalize talking about bodies the same way they talk about the height of a person or the body shape of a car... the taboo feeling when talking about a womanâs weight or age is ridiculous
Because people find joy in being more concerned about other people's personal life instead of their own. Apparently the decision ppl make with their own body is somehow affecting them.
Agreed
She is so gorgeous. Women naturally store more fat, her old body was not maintainable long term. There are so many women out there that need to hear this. You do not have to have abs, or be a size 0 to be considered âfitâ. This is truly inspiring, and she looks healthier than ever, inside and out!
amen to that
Thank you for this comment. You literally made me cry.
If everyone thought like this though...
@DeadLittlePunkDoll Why? A size 0 implies maintaining a weight below what is natural and healthy for your body, doesn't it? The body is supposed to carry a certain amount of fat. That seems more like an aesthetic desire than someone genuinely healthy- it seems like the opposite.
@DeadLittlePunkDoll Many people shouldn't strive to be size 0 for that reason. You can shrink body fat, b ut that doesn't shrink your wide hips or huge glutes for example.
Thank you so much for doing this, and recording throughout your journey and sharing it on the internet. I can't even imagine how difficult it must have been! I have so much respect for you. This is what I believe in to be "healthy", not just look thinner on the outside but to be really comfortable with however you look. I wish that I can be as strong as you. You are an incredible person! I'm so glad I found you
This is literally SO INSPIRING!! As someone who constantly struggles with their weight, it is so heartwarming to see someone as wonderful and beautiful as you talk so openly about such issues.
When Dr. Rinaldi said "The idea that healthy equals a look is problematic. Healthy equals functioning well" !!! YES !! I love that !
Period !!! :))
Yess! So true! â¤ď¸
Tell me why she looks like a natural Kim Kardashian.
Ana Chiyo she looks like the twin of kourtney kardashian
she does look like Kim K, but i'm not sure abt the natural part lmao
Bc the Kardashians are not human, man, they arent one of us, she is.
Exactly
Deliciouss
Wow this helped me sooo much.. Iâve been going through this because I used to be extremely hungry all the time and I also went all in without even realizing and have had moments like the 6 month depression you were going through with other peoples comments. I love that you documented this because it helps other girls â¤ď¸ for the record at every stage you were and are beautiful! The only difference now is that you are radiating love, content and happiness and it anyone can see that. A breath of fresh air â¤
I'm 6 months in to my intuitive eating journey and I'm at the heaviest I've ever been. This video was so helpful and validating. All the work I've put in isn't for nothing. My health and wellbeing is worth it and cycling through diets is not the answer. Thank you for sharing Stephanie đĽ°
Hi. How are you now?
âHeathy means functioning wellâ this made me cry. I didnât realize how emotional this video would make me. I need to work on my body image issue đ˘ Iâm not obese. Iâm not unhealthy. I need to learn to love my body.
Do you have a helper? Or should I help you?
if you have to say "I'm not obese" you probably are. Lol
Please ignore the people in these comments. Your body is perfect as long as you feel like you're healthy.
mamacita ጠyou donât know her. Just shut up
Minmochi ⢠aww did i trigger you??? you must be OBESE too hahaha
đ love that she listed the people's screen names that were calling her fat.
Bastardssss
Tiannah M Greg Doucette was especially rude in his video, normally like him so that was a shame to see
Jon Jimothy itâs called honesty
FFTuk I appreciate and value honesty, but there is also manners. calling someone a pig repeatedly, just unnecessarily rude
@FFTuk well noone has any business calling someone on the internet fat. That person's fatness isn't affecting you in any way so if you go out of your way to call someone fat that just goes to show how sadistic you are that you are calling someone something for hurting them.
Stephanie you have so much courage, this journey must have been so much harder than you make out, even just to start it must have been superhard, and you came out stronger and happier at the other end. You are inspirational, and everyone with an eating disorder needs to watch this! And your boyfriend Jeff was amazing for supporting you throughout. Thank you both for sharing.
What her sister said at the end that, finally Steph got her snickers, hits the nail right on the head, I donât think Steph emphasised enough how much her quality of life must have improved and how much more herself she is now. The sparkle is back in her eyes and the life back in her face.
The fact that people literally had the audacity to comment horrible things about someoneâs weight/appearance literally makes my blood boil. I admire your strength Steph!
@@jmorefit1 her period stopped and she was always hungry and cold. how is that healthy? are you actually that stupid? she was never "obese". how is saying that good for her mental health? you've got bigger issues if saying this stuff makes you feel better about yourself. maybe the girl with a phD knows a little more than your unsuccessful ass. how is getting those personal training clients going hahahah
@@jmorefit1 Even with her highest weight she wasn´t obese at all. Sie was still strong and healthy. Something is wrong with your perseption.
Shalix 33 So you believe a girl who is like 5â4 can gain 20+ pounds of fat and not be obese?? What doctor or dietitian do you know of would suggest tripling your calories and gaining 20 pounds of fat as a good idea to be heathy...?
Jamal Williams Let me be more clear...when she decided to stop extreme dieting for body building she would be heathy at that point...gaining 20+ pounds of fat at like 5â4 for a woman would make you obese...she said gaining the weight helped her mental health...thatâs a dangerous statement bc 99% of people wonât gain 20 pounds of fat from excessive eating and feel good mentally...she has a PhD in cancer research not nutrition or physiology...did you see how I responded without insulting you even once, thatâs what being mature and reasonable looks like...
â@@jmorefit1 Yes, that´s correct. If her weight hasn´t been over about 65 kg, she wasn´t overweight. Her weight however could have been over that mark, without being overweight, because she still had a lot of muscle mass. Also, there are new studies that show that women who are slightly overweight live longer. Has something to do with hormones.
It is not as if she had a normal body beforehand and then gained 10 kg. She hardly had any fat on her body, which can be very unhealthy, as has been seen in her case.
Weird that menstruation feels like curse until it disappears and then your learn how important it is to being healthy.
as someone who had hormonal problems and my period disappeared for 2 years, I can confirm how true this is!! now I'm happy every time my period comes haha
Stephanie is a fake. She photoshops and lies about a lot of things. She restricted and binged and CLEARLY had an eating disorder but doesnât admit to it. Donât take her dangerous advice on dieting. Seek professional help instead. Read the truth about Stephanie here: www.reddit.com/r/xxfitness/comments/fef83g/thoughts_on_stephanie_buttermores_all_in_journey/?
Yup. And how we feel when we menstruate too helps tell a lot about our health
Soo trueđ sometimes Iâm like I wish periods can disappear then when my period is a bit late I freak out then when it comes Iâm like phew Iâm healthy đŠ
So so greatful for my fertility đ
Congratulations this was so encouraging. Iâve been so down on myself since gaining all my weight back from doing keto during quarantine. Iâve been just trying to accept this new me but itâs a true struggle. Thank you for sharing
Dude Iâm so glad I came across you again; Iâve seen this video at the peak of my anorexia back in 2019-2020 and it felt like something insaneâŚ
Now Iâve spent around a year overcoming my anorexia and doing around half a year of an accidental âall inâ due to going through a major depressive stage and am around the 6-7month stage.
Itâs very tough, Iâm not gonna lie. Iâm breaking down daily atm and hit my highest weight yesterday.
As someone who was obese as a teen itâs extremely difficult to watch myself look similar to how I was back then.
And at least you had a loving and supportive boyfriend, which is nice; while I really feel fully alone in this as my mum is judging me too and voicing all my thoughtsâŚ
Idk I just hope this is it and Iâm gonna slim down again this week. Literally praying at this pointâŚ
I just want you to know- when I was recovering from my eating disorder a few years ago, I also did it all by myself. No boyfriend, no support from a therapist or family/friends. In all honesty, I was too ashamed to talk about it. I felt like no one would understand. I ended up gaining 60 pounds in 6 months and weighing the most I've ever weighed in my life. It took a few months before my weight slowly started coming back down, and believe me, it was slow!! I felt so unhappy, like I had failed and I was going to be overweight and miserable forever. The biggest thing that changed my life was finding a good therapist and writing in my journal every week. Sometimes I would read my (very disturbing) journal entries to my therapist and we would break down the distortions. If you afford it, I highly recommend seeking out a good therapist who will understand what you're going through. You can get through this, and it's absolutely worth it! I've maintained a very healthy weight for a couple years now and I haven't binged or restricted once. I wish you the best : )
You're the reason I started my ed recovery. I've had anorexia for almost 10 years and I'm getting better and better everyday. My hunger was really extreme in the begining (I'm talking about 10-12 000 calories a day) becuase I lost half of my body weight during my ed. My hunger is normalizing, I eat between 2000-4000 calories a day and I love my body. Yes I did gain weight. More than I wanted or intended to, but while gaining weight I also gained my ability to think rationally and lost interest in my outter appearance. I'm so happy I found your channel. Love you and wish you all the best
Stephanie is so amazing and it's so great that she was able to inspire you! â¤ď¸ Congratulations on all your progress! â¤ď¸â¤ď¸
Iâm so happy you chose to recover. It is so mentally draining. I am proud of you!
Omg me too, I am the same weight as Stephanie now. She helped me so much, and I donât think she realizes that! I thought I was crazy, but I was just about eating when my body was hungry! Iâm so glad youâre on a great road to recovery â¤ď¸
I'm so proud of you! đ
It is not easy but we can do it!
Iâm extremely proud of you đ. Taking the initiative to start recovery is very braveđ Good jobđđźđđđđđđ!!!!!!
When Nicola said "healthy is not defined by how a person looks, it is about how well the body functions.", that was a HUGE statement! Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Looks are the result of being healthy and fit!

As someone who starved myself as much as possible for as long I could remember - when covid I started allowing myself to eat, since I was hungry for so long, I started to binge bad. Iâm just now coming out of it and have been so hard on myself- you put so much prospective into mind, thank you so so much!
You are so gorgeous. You can not let anyone comment on all of your hard work. No ONE is perfect! I struggled with gastro issues that caused me more than a 20 lb weight gain within a month.Working on it now. And my average weight is only around 135. Subscribed to see all of your more positive vibes!

Can we just appreciate what an amazing supportive guy Jeff is. Husband material right there!
Yeah, my moral of the story was that every woman needs a Jeff.

I am sure he can't wait for her to stop eating.
Ophelia
What, you think he wants her to continue to eat and eat.......really???? Are you serious???

Lol, let's see the science, skinny and unhealthy, or fat and unhealthy. The science is in, the skinny people live longer and have less health problems. When you see an old person that is over 100.......they are never fat, the fat ones died off 35 years ago.
@@thailandtreats4816 your point would almost make sense if Stephanie was fat, but she isnt
I watched this video with tears in my eyes. SOOOO proud of you for doing this and sharing it with the world. Its hard when you grow up never feeling good about yourself, because you feel ashamed by the way you look. YOU ARE STUNNING inside and out. Its taken me 54 years and I still struggle, but not like I used to. This video will help so many people. Keep it up! You are amazing.
Jeff's follower here. I've been deeply moved by this amazing life changing leap of faith where a certain truth is talking us more than every limiting believes that surround us we have to detach from. I'm very proud of you. I'm glad you documented it and shared it for others to see it and be inspired. It is not only a story of hunger and appearance. It is a story of listening to ourselves and to trust our natural side and our body. It knows the way when we can get out of the self too. And certainly a story of letting go getting to the right side of us eventually and bounding with it.
I'm so glad that Stephanie had Jeff during her "All In" journey, especially when so many people criticized her. He is so sweet towards her. When he said "I still thought you looked beautiful at this time" my heart melted!! He's a keeper for sure!!
I hope this healthy weight gain becomes a trend in the fitness community. Too many eating orders and anorexics disguised at fitness influencers.
A lot of anorexics trade in their eating phobia into lifting weights and âeating healthyâ and being super lean. Itâs not healthy just like being overweight isnât either.
Itâs time we focus on true health.
tbh this isnt healthy weight gain. Her heaviest weight is unhealthy.
@@DiegoLastres Her heaviest weight was temporary; this process is how her body has come to settle where it's healthy.
@@DiegoLastres Also, check back in the video, where that doctor talked about people being healthy at different weights.
I totally agree! I couldn't find really much about gaining weight and muscle. Majority is about staying lean, but alot of us suffer with being too light
@@DiegoLastres You really didn't get the message...smh
I literally cried, you are so real and it was touching me seeing you reached your goals!
Wow, this is honestly one of the most inspiring videos I've ever had the honour of watching. Stephanie, this entire process you willed yourself to do and the resilience, perseverance and absolute unwavering courage is a testament to not just womxn in fitness but womxn who are dealing daily with body dysmorphia, fluctuating physical changes both internally and externally, those with complicated relationships with food/diet and lifestyle habits... I am just lost for words and seeing this made me want to hug you and tell you you're actually such a remarkable person I am in awe of you. You've earned yourself a fan and admirer, thank you for sharing this journey
WTF is "Womxn"?
God really said: Brains, Beauty and a stunning Personality for this one
Stephanie is a fake. She photoshops and lies about a lot of things. She restricted and binged and CLEARLY had an eating disorder but doesnât admit to it. Donât take her dangerous advice on dieting. Seek professional help instead. Read the truth about Stephanie here: www.reddit.com/r/xxfitness/comments/fef83g/thoughts_on_stephanie_buttermores_all_in_journey/?
@Naomi Nguyen I can see why you may think this, but thereâs no reason for you to shade such a strong woman for something you have no evidence on. Do you live with her? see what her life is like behind the camera? no. donât spread non-evidence based remarks and random reddit articles when you donât know plain facts đ have a great day :))
@@noyonika3415 I mean she is shouting off the roofs about her looks and intelligence. I have nothing against people who are generally good looking, fit and intelligent at the same time. But I have more respect for people who only have 1 of those things and are modest about it. Not admitting and lying about your mental health is a huge problem. It won´t go away if you don´t look at it. Her ways of eating were never healthy and shouldn´t be taken as an example. It has become common for people to justify cheat days. This is bad and should be changed.
``Naomi Nguyen Oh, would you rather her use a Snapchat filter to change how she looks?
@@misshangvu you tried sending a reddit post as evidence? that's all opinionated stuff my guy. i didn't see any screenshots or anything of value. also she doesn't really tell people to do this? she's just documenting what she's doing for herself.
When she said âthe idea of healthy equals a look is really problematic. Healthy equals functioning. And that comes in any size and shapes.â That hits me hard
Jessica du 237 this desperately needs to be taught in schools. For some reason this message is so difficult for many to understand, which leads to majority of women developing some form of an eating disorder in their lives.
As soon as she said that I literally teared up.
Eddie Avinashi it depends on what is classified as overweight. A healthy weight is different for each individual. Stephanie is currently at her healthy weight but some would try and tell her sheâs overweight when really she was more at risk when she was her weight a year ago. Itâs all about making the healthiest choices for your own body.
Eddie Avinashi Healthy weight is considered âfatâ in our society. You have to have a flat belly or abs in order to be healthy.
it doesnt come in any size and shape but does come in many size and shape. healthy absolutely does have a look in the same way that unhealthy has a look. theres just not a single look for either.
wow, this is one of the most amazing stories I've heard on CZcams, or anywhere. Thank you for being brave enough to share all this. It's powerful stuff.
As a person who struggled with anorexia long time ago, I truly know what she means when you canât be completely satiated. The body is smart and will try to prevent starvation, by making you eat more.
shes always been really pretty but a higher weight suites her face really well!
Too much makeup. I don't know what she looks like.
@@AandF1320 Ok Boss
her head looks too big when shes super skinny
@@AandF1320 No negative here. I just say it as I see it.
TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!!
I pretty much never comment but this is worth making an exception. I'm a guy. I've never had an eating disorder. I've never been very lean or obese. I've never had to deal with backlash on social media. I could not personally relate to your struggles and yet this video nearly moved me to tears. I love your openness and am grateful for the role model you are to young girls and women. Keep doing what you're doing, Stephanie. You have my utmost respect.
This is so cute đĽş
Ur hands dwn the best comment
Nice champ
I was thinking about what to say and read your comment Ingo and you say it all. I'm so glad a man can understand what a big, big deal this is for women - normal women, let alone anyone in the public eye. I eat less at the weekend to keep slim, no dinner tonight so I can have a drink without feeling guilty about the calories. My fiancĂŠ loves me regardless, the pressure comes from advertising and social media. Stephanie is incredibly, incredibly brave and resilient putting her head above the parapet on this issue. Huge respect.
You're a gentleman omg
Thanks for posting this!! Turns out that I accidentally did a similar process! After losing weight I just ate whatever I wanted and now it seems my body is getting better and better at processing hunger cues. Seeing the weight gain was a struggle but glad youâre seeing the positives too!!
You look SO much better than when you started. Health shows. Beautiful.
This is the type of fitness influencers we need! I know this has been said a thousand times but for me it is really important to thank you stephanie!!! You are a true inspiration, what you've been doing is changing the lives of so many people who struggle with eating disorders like me. Tracking your journey in such an open way is an act of bravery, even if for some people it might sound like an exageration, for somebody who lives and works in the fitness community, doing what you did is not easy. Thank you stephanie!! You are so real and genuine with your videos, this is what youtube needs nowadays!!
â¤ď¸â¤ď¸â¤ď¸
This is wayyyy better than watching someoneâs losing weight journey and dieting and working out
I agree, being yourself. Vulnerable to emotions is truly good sharing stuff
Definitely true
So true!
Of course its wayy better, its much better seeing weak people like you giving up to their addictions and relate.
How about keep it together, do reverse dieting for couple of months and stay lean while doing that, instead of gaining fat like a whale and hope the body will fix itself one day?
Talk about yo yo dieting.....
Yoni R i get what you mean but the way you worded that was... kinda harsh
What an amazing journey! Good for you. So refreshing to see someone in fitness showing their health journey, with a goal to just be healthy and happy! That's what it's all about. A good relationship with your food, your body and yourself!
I don't normally comment on videos but this was really amazing. I am a personal trainer and used to compete and then had 2 children and gained heaps of weight and have had issues with food and training ever since basically because having been super fit and then having a normal body it can be hard to adjust. I was body shamed when I went back to the gym to work and just never got my mojo back. I honestly wish more people would do this and go into intuitive eating. Thank you so much for your video!
She is amazing, like she got her shit together juggling tasks in getting a PhD, winning a bikini contest, doing youtube fixing her appetite and overall health and fitness.
I can't even wake up early in the morning to do something productive. đ Ghaaaad, i love her
Going all in too.
Currently battling bulimia.
I need to get better. I want to get better.
Currently on day 7. One week.
I appreciate you.
Food shouldnât be fought. Food should be loved.
I hope my experience is as hard and beautiful as yours.
I wish you so much love.
From,
A silent viewer.
Congrats on your first 7. â¤
I began recovery from AN almost a year ago; I promise that it's worth it and that it gets SO much easier. Recovery brings you all the things you fear you'll never have xxx
Good luck babe xx
you're going to do amazing!! even if you have some hiccups along the way. health will be worth it all
I had/have Binge ED. What she did is exactly what my dietician recommended. âGive yourself freedomâ basically. You will get there! Itâs HARD! But you can do it! Donât give up!
Thank you so so so much for sharing this. Iâm on a journey of âanti dietingâ and allowing my body and metabolism to recover and I was MOVED by your story. Youâre also so authentic, articulate, and warm. I relate to so many of the moments you shared from your journey. This has really given me so much hope and encouragement â¤ď¸
XO from a fellow female scientist
Just wanted to say thank you. Havenât been following you but came across this video and found myself in tears at several points. As someone who is healing her own relationship with food, so much of this resonated with me. Iâm so happy for you and youâve given me more hope that the kind of freedom, acceptance, and happiness isnât so out of reach. Wishing you all the best.
Itâs so sad how body image really affects us. I canât imagine having an entire platform of people watching my entire journey, especially one like this. I think Stephanie is really strong, brave, and just an all around good person. Honestly those people online who made fun and called her names are just negative, insecure people who have some sort of deep seated hatred within themselves.
I'm honestly disappointed in steph for letting it bother her so much... I've always respected her because she wasn't just a stereotypical "fit chick" with no credentials but ever since the all in journey, seems like all her posts are either whining about how she looks, or loving the way she looks.
She made it very clear at the start that the goal was just to be healthier but it seems like now, she's just focused on looking good like most other fitness "influencers"
Basically what I'm saying is she's drifted away from health above all else by constantly letting the way she perceives her looks to affect whether or not she wanted to continue with a healthy process.
Diu she wouldnât be human if she wasnât upset at times. This society, no matter how strong you are, has the insane ability to dwell into our psyche to beat down on what a perfect woman should look like. I think itâs great that Stephanie was able to be so honest with us. Itâs so much more refreshing than just pretending that this was easy.
I can't imagine how hard it must be either. I've gained like 8 pounds this year and I was scared to go out and see like, the 10 people I know, can't even picture how I would feel showing such a difficult journey to millions of strangers

She worked hard, why not monetize it. I don't get it.
Might have gotten demonetized by youtube
Hii Steph, you are amazing ! You don't know how much you helped me to go throught extreme hunger ( but also gain weight) ! I know that I am not alone in the recovery process :)
Thanks you for showing yourself in your darkest moments. Food gave me back the joy and the craziness that my TCA had stolen.
Huge hug from France !

you and jeff are definitely soulmates
Stephanie thiccc with ab lines! Looking better than ever, eating well, staying warm, inspiring others??!! Yesss Steph we stand behind you and we love you thank you for this
Right! She's thick with abs, 100% goals!
this need to be on netflix..lol damn good presentation
Me too, I didn't even notice the time passing. She looks much happier now, awesome video.
ikr
AGREED!
It would probably do more harm than good on Netflix. Her approach is great assuming the individual meets certain criteria:
1) they are a person fully immersed in fitness who strength trains and understands their body extremely well, and grasps the fundamentals of diet and nutrition
2) has at least above average genetics
If the individual doesnât satisfy that criteria, theyâd probably just gain a ton of weight and struggle to lose any of it in the future.
This may be the first time Iâve sat and watched a video for this long without it feeling repetitive or boring.
I need this on Netflix, you are such an inspiration
glad to see you gradually happier everyday, and Jeff is such an amazing man
It really saddens me that eating disorders/disordered eating are so normalized in the bodybuilding community. When competing you have to be incredibly restrictive and essentially have to starve to become lean enough to compete and it's impossible to maintain, not to mention how taxing it is on the body and mind. (At least that's my own personal experience and I'm so glad I've recovered). Your story has inspired so many! Thank you for sharing this incredible journey with us!
Yes exactly, she had an eating disorder and she's calling it something different pretending that it's not an ED. There is no such thing as extreme hunger. It's called eating disorder when you eat and eat and eat and still want to eat even after you feel full which is exactly how she described it.
â@@pinkrainbow1 She wanted to "eat and eat" because she was never fully satiated. She only stated she felt like she COULD eat more even after being really bloated because, again, she was never really full.
Pink Rainbow she has disordered eating, not an eating disorder. You can not diagnose someone over the Internet, especially if youâre not a trained therapist. An eating disorder is only diagnosable if youâre using it as a coping mechanism.

Stephanie, what an amazing journey! You are incredibly strong and brave to take on this self-transformation and share it on CZcams. This video is inspiring and refreshing to see. I can see in your video that you are beautiful, smart, brave, disciplined, and really an optimistic person. I love your positive energy! I am sorry you suffered such criticism at times and hateful remarks from some of your audience, but I am glad you had support around you and you persevered with your decision despite your doubts and fears. You look incredible and you have healed and improved your health in so many ways. Thanks for putting out this video!
This is my fav video! Iâve watched it countless times. So informative and comforting to know that this process is worth it. Thank you for sharing your journey x Itâs helped me so much.
'one of the scariest journeys' You aren't being dramatic, I was like 'No shit girl, you are making history.' MAD RESPECT.
This could be a Netflix documentary I'm so glad and proud u did it and sucess!! đđ
Yuhui's life it really could!! So amazing
YES YES YES. It would help SO many people!! I have definitely been there with the crazy appetite, it felt like my stomach was a black hole!! It's the most uncontrollable hunger I have ever felt in my life. I was restricting and not eating anywhere near enough! Itâs like your body forces you to start eating like crazy to catch up. It took me a year for the "empty pit" feeling to go away after I stopped restricting, working out like crazy, and started eating a lot. I had a lot of bloating issues too just because I am tiny and I was eating like crazyy to satisfy my hunger. But that went away after about a year too. Now I still eat a lot more than normal but my appetite has definitly stabilized more and I no longer feel like im constantly starving! This is why its not good to be exteme with anything. Balance is key!
Yess hope thereâs a way we can help in this. Stephanie saved my life i went all in with her!!
A Human yes same here !! I am "all in" now since 1 year, too, and glad that I found stephanies channel right after the beginning of my decision to eat more..! First I wanted to try eating a few hundred calories more but mostly clean. But then I found her and her interview with dr. rinaldi I went "all in" with all foods I wanted to eat... a lot of "healthy" (tons of porridge, sweet potatoe, avocado and olive oil..) also not so "clean" foods (chocolate and a lot of pasta, butter and toast) and this was the best decision.
Today my hunger cues are most of the time "normal" I eat 2500 to 3000 calories every day now and want to continue because my hunger is still a good amount higher than from others but for me it's the lowest hunger I've ever experienced since beginning with this journey.. I think stephanies experience and dr. rinaldis advice is helping a lot of women and even men... I don't know what I would do without stephanie.. â¤ď¸
Yes!
I'm in recovery for disordered eating and just getting over the heaviest part of this re-feeding process. Thank you for showing this. I wish everyone knew about intuitive eating.
I absolutely love this video. I am so sorry you had to endure the poor comments from people online and those that are close to you. This video is super inspiring and helpful to me. Iâm glad that you stuck with it! Thanks for all your content!! â¤ď¸
Living on 3 hrs of sleep and 900 calories PLUS working out and an intense job? Oof. I could never.

â@@kidthateveryonethinkshasso1872 I'm 15 years old now, and I was trying to recover from anorexia like you. After successfully gaining 5kg (11lbs), I started wanting to lose weight again.
