    I am 190 I always been 145 my whole life at one point lower than that I've gained over 50 lbs in the last 4 years and now that I am engaged I am wanting more to be healthy again. czcams.com/users/postUgkx5VQ5nUzHu6i0O5_u7ipyLnCz0lbsSvr0 I am not fat but I am thick and have muscle. I am very close to how you were but a lil smaller but I am so sick people making comments to me like I'm huge or like you said having shorts that used to be so cute on me and now I can't even find a pair to fit me. I used to love shopping now I don't even want to go to the store and if I do I pick the biggest size don't even try it on and deal with it. I went from size 5 to size idk because I don't even want to know the real number. I hate looking at pics of myself now or me before. thank you for your video it's time to make a change.

    I really like this mature version of Selena. Lupus is a chronic, unpredictable, and often debilitating illness. Anyone who suffers from chronic pain knows how it doesn't just affect your body, it really messes with your mind, too. She handles this with such grace and is willing to share what it looks like for her. Her honesty will no doubt help others who are also experiencing this and similar ailments.

It’s a daily struggle to deal with this disease, the last thing we need is to be bullied about our weight. The much needed medicine I take all have the side effect of weight gain.😢 Just be kind to people cause you never know what someone is dealing with.😊💜

      @kamurablade Před rokem +42

      Watching her explain how it feels when she wakes up had me tearing up because that's exactly how I feel almost everyday for the last 20 years battling Lupus. Criticizing someone's fluctuating weight when that person is fighting an incurable disease is pretty sh!tty. Treat people the way you would want to be treated. I'm glad Selena is bringing more awareness to this terrible disease. If you saw me in person you would never know that I'm sick. You would never know that I've been a size 00 all the way to a size 8 and back. I have more stretch marks from prednisone than from all 4 of my pregnancies combined. I've been to the brink of death and back atleast 3 times, so I've never been the one to really care about what other people think but I would never say something mean or criticize someone's weight. Just be kind to one another.

I had moon face and it was just awful and I still carry that with me today decades later. I hope you know that you’re not alone and please reach out to others with lupus or chronic conditions and join a support group if you can. I’m sending all good things your way- you can make it through, even a day at a time.

    Mad respect for you (SG) Having an autoimmune disease is no joke. There are such low lows, but there are highs too. Chronic pain sucks, and fighting for our lives is what we do every day. My Sister has Lupus, and I have AS. She and I have fought most of our adult lives to push forward with our diseases. The medications, many cause weight gain, the diseases affect all our organs and bones and joints. It’s hard. I chose to love my body as a plus size woman, because my body fights hard every day! So does yours girl! (S.G.) keep on Keeping on! You are beautiful! All of you!
    You are perfect, just as you are, with all the fluctuations that all humans deal with at some point in their lives. Those pointing fingers and judging…one day, they will have to deal with something hard. I just hope they have someone to be supportive of them when they do. Perfect people do not exist, if anyone thinks they are “all that”…well…. “You get what you give the world back at some point” I hope they can handle it.

    My heart broke seeing her cry in pain. I think 2 singers that I’m thinking of had or has that but I had forgotten much about it until now. I may not know fully everything about it but I do feel for her. It’s important to set healthy boundaries & take care of ourselves. It’s ok to say no. I applaud her bravery in coming forward. She’s someone young girls & older can truly look up too & to know they aren’t alone. Never be ashamed of who you are, or of what you’re going through. Always be yourself & that’s what I love about her. She stays true to herself.
    It’s so sad people rather judge & bring others down instead of showing empathy, understanding & lifting people up. Kill them with kindness it’s so true. Like I’ve always said, if someone treats you bad, treat them better bc it shows their character. This world needs more love than hate. No one will truly understands what another is simply going through until they go through it themselves. I may not fully understand what she’s going through but I’m sure many can.
    Even though what I’m going through isn’t the same, but I struggle with my own issues with Fibromyalgia. I felt ashamed etc but now I’m not anymore. We can’t control what we have. So that’s why we should speak up when we can without any shame & educate ourselves & others. While surrounding ourselves with people who will support & love us. Much love ☺️🙏🏻♥️

There's negative emotional, spiritual energy to eating meat from animals who were tortured and killed.

      You have to be perfect these days or most modern women just simply cannot cope with your presence without making a horrible comment.
      I mean right down to modern women having to bully, body shame, dehumanize, publically humiliate men for things they can never help about their bodies such as penis size etc.
      These people(Mostly women) are just cruel. Men do not get away with making extremely cruel bodily remarks like this especially publically without being instantly cancelled and having everyone come down on you like a ton of bricks.
      Whereas most modern women are celebrated and encouraged for body shaming and making all sorts of completely unnecessary remarks on peoples bodies, just to make these people feel more shitty about themselves of course, usually at a time when they are struggling the most mentally.
      The same sort of women of course who will share a meme on facebook claiming how much they are about mens mental health and body posititvity though haha

    I don't have lupus but I got sick back in 2012 and kept it to myself. I continued working until 2015. When I could no longer cope/manage I decided to let the company I worked know about my situation. Eventually I was declared medically unfit for my job in 2018. It's 2023 and I still have my health issues, unemployed but I'm trying to start over at 41. Wish you all the best Selena.

I can’t stress enough how important mental health is for type one diabetics, my mental health and the exhaustion of dealing with it is what made me sick!!
