When she was at the gym the reason why she wasn’t losing weight on the scale is because her muscle was most likely going up and fat was going down so her weight stayed the same. There’s a reason why super muscular people weigh a ton
This comment is litrelly 10:53
@@Desiray77tape measure
She may be gaining more muscles, but I doubt that's the main cause. She did mostly cardio, which mostly targets weight loss not muscles. I think there is definitely something to do with her diet.
I was also thinking the same, just do cardio if your main focus is to lose weight
that’s not how that works. muscle density is much higher than fat density. and fat doesn’t convert to muscle. muscle is grown and fat is burnt, not converted
Friendly reminder that even if everyone on earth ate the same diet and had the same workout routine, we'd still have different bodies
Preach!!!!
But no one would be obese or overweight
1. in that world, almost no one would be obese
2. this is why personal trainers exist. to adjust exercise and nutrition relative to your body. instead of giving everyone the standard amount
@@RenderingUser"in that world no one would be obese" not at all, you are saying if a 4'11 kid had the same diet as a 6'4 man the kid would not be obese??
@@Cherika119 read what I said. You literally went and incorrectly wrote my point 1. Skipping out an important word, and you completely ignore point number 2 entirely.
So fun fact: Muscle -weighs more- *is denser* than fat.
If you worked out, and your posture and endurance improved, that's a sign of muscle growth. It can explain why the scale didn't move, despite your workout.
Adding fiber to my diet and eating less processed sugar did wonders for my health.
It's a lot more accurate to say that muscle has a higher density than fat rather than muscle weighs more than fat. A pound of fat weighs that exact same as a pound of muscle
@@bensjournalYeah you say potato I say tomato. You're correct, but that was always the reason that was described to me for why fat people can float so much better in the swimming pool. I'm kinda scrawny myself so I can't even relax and keep my head above water. Some people I know can just lay there like they have their own raft.
So everything weighs the same to you? You obviously know what they mean@@bensjournal
Thats like saying a kg of steel is heavier than a kg of feathers
why can't you let her do her thing? she can do whatever she wants lmao
I started getting boobs at age 10, and they were fully developed before Middle school. I was a huge target for literally every girl in my school because of it. I was a geeky tomboy with few friends(most of which were boys) and I guess they believed I didn't deserve having them. I too got cat calls from strange men driving by and I was a minor... No wonder I literally lived in an oversized hoodie for a majority of my teen years.
I empathize with you. I started at age 8 and got bullied for it. But its perfectly normal
bruh that isnt bad why would the girls bully, i know the dudes didnt
So relatable,I’m currently a teen and I always have an oversized hoodie because I’m scared…
Same ( I was 34 C in 5th grade) I was sexually harassed every single day by this boy in 6th, nothing ever fits my chest, I am always being stared at, my family would make comments about my chest (which is so not okay) I was so insecure. Now I honestly dont care what people think or say about my body ( I am 34 DDD now in the 9th grade)
Girl same. My body started developing like that in elementary school and I was so insecure about how I fit in my clothes.

Each body has its own recommended weight. No body is the same or should be the same.
I'm pretty sure 500 pounds is overweight regardless of what type of body you have.
@@comparc1972 it's implied that every body has it's own recommended weight (within reason). Of course 500lbs isn't healthy
When you have the same height and no some kind of illnesses, every body should have the same healthy weight.
@@antoni783 (no, actually)
@@kalexander1981 why?
what you have to understand is even if youre not losing weight, you may just be replacing your fat in weight to muscle. BMI's and weighing yourself isnt accurate way to tell if youre improving, its just another measure of scale. Like you said, you are lifting, running and feeling better. Its muscle being added to you replacing the fat weight
The only two measures of actually knowing if you're losing fat are digital calipers and the mirror

@@Jollyjose251 So it''s true that redhead people have fire powers?
I have mixed feeling about this video.
On one side, I like the whole "body neutrality" thing, embracing your body is necessary for your mental health and general wellbeing.
On the other, this feels way too sugarcoated. You should be aware of the physical health problems that come with an underweight/overweight body.
Exactly
and funny how she changes the topic, DRASTICALLY
beginning: i don't like how i LOOKS
end: i'm HEALTHY

she is indeed safe
To be honest, clicking on this video, I was like “but Illyssa isn’t fat,” but I love the content so I stayed. And now I’m nearly crying because I’m also the fattest I’ve ever been, and it feels out of control, and her conclusions about her body and health in this video are the things I try to remind myself. But it feels harder for me because I have health issues that prevent me from working out and dieting in any classic way. And I just feel stuck in a loop with no way out. I have yet to even get answers from doctors after over a year of appointments trying to figure it out, and when this all started I WAS feeling healthy. I WAS happy with myself. I loved my body. And then my body felt like it decided to hate me. I’m still seeing doctors and I haven’t given up, but it’s just… it’s hard feeling like I’m stuck in the bottom of a pit with no ladders or ropes to help me out.
Lots of people have made being chubby a synonym for fat unfortunely.
I'm also the fattest I ever been and it really does feel isolating

ive always been the "skinny kid" and got bullied for that, no matter how much i ate, i still were so skinny. it just shows that no matter how you look, people will always judge you by how your body look. (edit) tysm guys for all the likes!!
Same here, I’ve been “underweight” my entire life, with a BMI of 16 yet such a metabolism that doesn’t let me gain weight. I could take 2 months to gain 2kg with a specific diet and exercise and then loose them again in a week, making me feel like all progress was useless. It’s not a matter of weight, is a matter of health
Ikr
Damn straight!! Being "too" skinny is also just generally an uncomfortable and confusing experience.
I've been told I look anorexic, and I've also been told by some that they wish they had a body like mine. I've even known someone who body checked themselves right in front of me, pulled their shirt back to reveal their waist, asked me if I wanted to see their quads, and asked me how much I weighed. Their weird, competitive, passive-aggressive nature towards me BECAUSE of the way my body looks is something that never rubbed me the right way.
All in all, though, the obsession with being skinny is always something that's made me so uncomfortable to see from others. Body neutrality is something we should all strive for, and focusing on what our bodies can DO instead of what they look like is most important at the end of the day.
Been there. I was 6'1 and 17 years old and I was a skeleton.(130 lbs)Every time I went swimming I wore a shirt to cover my ribs.😅(still love food though)

One thing that doesn't get mentioned a lot either is that you can exchange fat weight for muscle weight. I actually put on weight while I was doing some of my gym work outs, but I noticed I looked a bit more slim and had less chub in some places. Not even they people at my gym explained to me that what was happening is I was exchanging one for the other as I got stronger.

I was born with hypothyroidism (diagnosed at 17 days old) and I grew up the fat kid. To this day I still struggle with my weight and it caused me to hate my wedding photos from last year. Hearing your take on weight struggles actually helps and I need to start practicing body neutrality 😌 thank you.
More people need to learn about medical conditions that can predispose someone to gaining weight. People (including some doctors, who should really know better) are far too quick to judge without knowing the full picture.
Same here. I got diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 8th grade. I have always been bigger :(
I also have hypothyroidism, although I forget what age I was diagnosed, definitely not as young as you I don’t think. However I have another hormone issue that’s stagnating my weight…PCOS. These two conditions combined has made it rather difficult to lose any substantial weight. I did lose about 40 pounds once I started exercising and eating less, but now I’m kind of floating around a certain number. My weight could be lower but honestly I’ve never been concerned with my looks. My mother also being overweight (she has hypothyroid too) probably helped with that.
I was only bullied in one grade and it was for an entirely different reason and I was too young to really be affected by him, and he apologized the next year so that was something. Once I finished 4th grade, I expressed to my mom that I didn’t want to go to public middleschool and beyond, again for entirely unrelated reasons, but she agreed rather readily and so I spent my last school years in homeschooling. I think I dodged a far bigger bullet than I realized back then, especially since one of my school friends’ mom who is friends with my mom said her daughter basically went through hell in highschool, and she wasn’t even overweight like I was.
If I had gone through the roughest parts of highschool, I may have developed a stronger disdain for my appearance than I do, but as of now, I’m not perfect but I’m healthy and in a community of nice people who have never judged my appearance. I hope you can find peace as well ^~^
You can't gain weight without overeating and not exercising.
@@Wr41thgu4rd It's okay, not everyone can understand the simple fact that the human body is extremely complex and there are many reasons someone may gain weight.

@@thatautisticgamerrIt was an epic chvd victory
as someone on the opposite end of the weight spectrum no matter what I do and feel actual discomfort about how scrawny I am, I will try to keep body neutrality in mind
Go workout and eat lots of protein. I had the same build as you two years ago and I can actually get laid now
Buy gainer if u wanna gain weight
@@Gerthrude8 op said they were overly skinny but yea
Eat more, if it's not enough, eat more. Most commonly the problem is meal frequency.
This made me feel so much better. As a middle school girl who weighs ~72 kg (160 lbs) this helps me realize I’m not unhealthy. I’m really not, because I eat healthy (all food groups, includes fruits and vegetables) and I exercise everyday, whether that’s my swim team practice or a walk.
Edit: I am 5’ 4”
what that fat?
ur 160?? idk where u live but where i live that’s skinny or fit 😮
I’m a 6th grader and I’m 182 but I don’t look that fat
I’m also very tall (5’6) so my weight is adjusted to my height.
As someone who was bigger then you at your age
you are perfect whatever size you are
You just have to be healthy thats what matters
As a middle schooler I can sadly confirm that this is still how they act and I recently had to stick up for a friend who was being bullied. What the actual hell is wrong with us.
as a junior in high school who dealt with very similar circumstances, i applaud you (and thank you) for sticking up for your friend. times can be really rough but you just gotta push through. one day you'll look back and feel relief that it's finally over.
I'm not in middle school, but I took a field trip recently and these girls in the back called the bus driver a whale and made fun of her. It pissed me off so much.
Much like kids learn to be homophobic and bully others for being gay, I'm pretty sure it's the same thing with weight shaming. If you're told by a young age or even if you read online that being fat is bad and being skinny is good, you'll get that mindset as well and bully others for being fat
You're such a a good friend, I really applaud you, and I know that you just made a core memory for your friend that will stick with them for the rest of their life. Please give them a compliment or two and assure them that they're beautiful and nothing's wrong with them. Even if it doesn't seem like it, it's always good to do it anyways in case they are feeling bad about themself, but are just hiding it.
Some people are naturally bigger or skinnier. The fact that you stayed at the same weight even when exercising alot is proof that you are at a healthy weight for YOUR body type! What's dangerous for health is doing the yo-yo, and keeping a relatively stable weight is healthy, whatever the weight is.
Stop bullying people for that, it includes skinny people who always are suspected of being anorexic! Be happy the way you are if it doesn't handicap you in any way 😊!
(by the way, you are really cute, don't worry!)
Came from Noah's video. Hope youre doing alright!!
:D
i love the scott pilgrim characters in the background!!
As a “fat kid”, I know what Lilly is talking about. I was fasting in middle school and instead of losing weight, I gained more. My body wasn’t used to me just eating less and idk how to really explain it, but basically I never lost that weight. Middle school will always be the worst because my mental health was horrible but now in high school, I’m way better. Yes, I am still big but that’s ok. My family is full of big women, it’s normal. And plus, my mom says to always flaunt what our lady ancestors gave us. My mother is a fashionable woman and she knows what clothes can flaunt her body and she taught me the same thing. Now, I dress however I want because it makes me happy. I do work out, dancing is my P.E in highschool. And it’s way more fun than middle school p.e that was boring and made me insecure. Yes, I’ve sweat and my body has been sore just like normal working out. We’re all normal with normal bodies, fat or skinny, we’re all beautiful
When you fast you tend to binge after it makes you worse off, honestly when you have bigger women in the family speaking from experience they tell you “well me and your aunts and grandma are all overweight, it’s just genetics!” Which come to find out it was just bad eating habits that had been taught and passed down from person to person. I’d honestly get some screening done and run tests bc if it is genetic, usually you will get some sort of treatment plan. Thankfully I was able to just follow calories in calories out very strictly monitoring everything and lost 100lbs and I’m now in a healthy weight and able to love my body. I don’t say this to make you feel bad about yours but i noticed the women who were also on the bigger end all had health issues like joint and back pain aswell as mental health issues like anxiety and depression:/ all bodies are beautiful but just make sure you keep an eye out for you and your families health❤️
Yeah, it is normal but when your that much overweight you can't sit idly by and watch your body rot as i did, id always been fat and short i didnt like that but i didnt do anything i waited and waited... and waited until i was so bad off my only hope was puberty and getting taller, luckily it worked out for me because i was so young and still had time to fix it. Please please don't listen to the current body positivity movement, despite what they tell you that youre fine at any weight, well you are fine at any weight but when youre like 400 pounds you have to be able to accept that and change it just like you said, fat or skinny were all beautiful (in our own way).
I was and it really affected me because of bullies and I lost a lot of weight and stopped eating as much thankfully I am in a new school and they don't body shame so I'm better but my eating is still not the same
Illy)
Ay bro being fat or skinny isn’t good. What a lot of ppl do is calculate their TDEE and then start to track calories.
For anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation to Illy, (like myself!) who cannot lose weight despite working out consistently, it is scientifically proven that someone who is overweight who works out consistently is more healthy than someone who is at a 'normal' weight and doesn't. love yourself, because you are doing it exactly right.
@daisy9181 if you eat less you will lose weight.
Not exercising just isn't healthy, no matter a person's weight. You don't even need a study to understand this. @@daisy9181

i have the same problem, its so nice seeing im not alone🥺
as a skinny person, the names are horrible (toothpick, stick insect, twig etc.) so much so i went to the gym with the purpose to bulk up but i got obsessed with comparing myself to other ripped people and it made me feel awful.

You’re such an inspiration to me. I grew up the “fat girl” I got tripped in the class and had people yell earthquake when I fell. I sobbed because I couldn’t fit into Hollister.

I normally don't comment too often, but this video was something I absolutely needed. As a girl who was also bullied most of her life for her body and had such an unhealthy relationship with weight, I've recently come to the decision to stop my restrictive dieting. This change has been a struggle and there have been moments where I almost convinced myself to go back. But this video helped remind me that my life has been so much better since I've let go of my bad habits and started living my life again. Thank you Illy for making videos like this and handling them with the same love and care as a friend.
You've touched many peoples hearts today
;o; your comment has me tearing up. thank you so much- and know that im rooting for you! recovery isn't linear, there will be good days and bad days, and having a therapist or a trusted friend or adult to talk to really helps. you got this!!! i believe in you!!!
Yes!! We are all rooting for you! :D I may be an internet stranger but you should definitely know that YOU CAN DO IT!!!! ❤️
We are rooting for you!!! It's understandable and human to have doubts and to go back to a unhelthy habit. For me, I fear aging and "looking old" despite knowing that objectively, it isn't healthy for me and is rooted in the strict gender norms that I have internalised and am experiencing more as I transition (as an AMAB non-binary person). At least, if I look back from far, I am better off today then I was a year ago. If you look back far and are happy with were you are in comparison to that point, then you have the right to be proud :)
bullshit straight up bullshit
The comment above me is kinda cool
It felt really nice to learn something from this video- “It’s not about how your body looks, but what it can do for you”
Go off sis you deserve better

as a slightly overweight, red-headed middle school girl with acne and glasses, this made my day.
Had all of those same traits in middle school. It does get better once you're done with grade school. People who make it to college generally are the ones who accept everybody for who they are. Be aware that you will sometimes run into adult bullies. But don't listen to them. You're amazing just the way you are.

I was actually about to send this to an AMAB friend who's convinced she's too big to be a girl and scared she'll get health problems if she doesn't lose weight like society says, to the point of barely eating/drinking after dieting & exercising for years didn't "work." She's realized it's the opposite of unhealthy to eat anything, despite social media, but there does need to be more reminders on how some bodies just are, and are healthy that way.
