  • Woo finally another upload! Sharing my whole fitness journey from before social media and opening up about past struggles I haven't truly felt comfortable sharing until now. My journey since being online has been very positive but getting to that point was filled with a lot of highs and lows.
    I'm very nervous to post this but hope if anyone else is struggling this video can help to show you that it can definitely get better!
    I hope you enjoy the video!
    TW: if you find topics of restrictive eating, discussion of eating disorders, calorie counting, restrictive eating or any related topics triggering please do not watch this video.

    Thank you so much for this! I found your channel a few weeks back and have been binge watchin your videos. I am a 35 yr old Mum of 3, and I've always always struggled with body image and with my relationship with food. I've Yo-yo dieted my entire life since around 10 yrs old. I've had all kinds of disordered eating issues (Mainly that Restrict-Binge-Self Hate cycle), but have also struggled with bulimia. I struggle with Chronic Pain (Migraines, and wide spread pain) and I am now the heaviest I've ever been and I feel sick. I literally feel ill, heavy, uncomfortable, I can't do things I used to be able to do. I've hired a Dietitian to help me get on track with diet, and also to help me repair my relationship with food. I just wanted to comment to say that it gives me so much hope to hear your story, and I will be following a lot of your workouts. I've recently downloaded Krissy Cela's Workout App, if you ever launch one of your own, I'd be first to download it!! 💜💜

    Aw bless you Hollie I have just recently got into watching your vlogs and having struggled with eating disorders myself in the past this one really struck a chord with me as it’s taken me years to enjoy a healthy relationship with food. I was bulimic/anorexic at uni and I feel like it’s still the “shameful” mental health disorder, whereas it’s become so acceptable to talk about depression, anxiety, etc, eating disorders still don’t have the recognition/acceptance that is so so needed. You’re so brave to talk about this. You look amazing with your strong, powerful body and you are such an inspiration! Sending you lots of love and strength for your fitness journey 😘👏🏻xx

    Loved this video ❤️ I never knew what you went through! I am so happy for you where you got! So so proud! I have been where you’ve been, struggled with bulimia, anorexia and binge eating for 6 years, and I can’t emphasise enough how freeing is being able to eat whatever you want ☺️

    Idk why this is making me emosh, but I can’t cry I’ve got tan on 😂😭! I feel as if I’m the younger version of you right now and seeing how far you’ve come makes me determined to get to a healthy point with food and exercise too. Thanks you for sharing your journey so far, it’s really helpful to hear 💗

    You actually made me cry a little… it’s crazy how relatable you are. You are totally raw and yourself, which is so enlightening when it comes to these subjects and the fitness world in general. You made me realise it’s totally normal to feel like those hard times are inescapable. But thank you for showing me it gets better xx

    I found you on TikTok a few months ago and then checked out your IG content. It was one of the first times I saw someone with a healthy lifestyle that seemed achievable for me to build my own routine around. After years of being too scared to get into the gym I just joined last week and can’t wait to start getting stronger (although it’s still terrifying 😭), thank you Holly 🙌🏻

    • @hollyb_fitness
      @hollyb_fitness  Před 2 lety +2

      I'm so proud of you, you've just taken such a big strep, even if it's terrifying now I promise it will get so much easier ❤️❤️

    this is the first video ive ever seen of you but I am incredibly proud of u for opening up and talking about your experience. 100% deserves more attention

    I appreciate this video is 3 months old but I’ve only just stumbled upon your channel! It’s so amazing to see “influencers” get so raw and real with us so thank you ❤️ I’m about 2 weeks into my journey but I’d LOVE some more in depth info about Georgie, like how it works, pros & cons etc because I have the absolute FEAR of the gym which means I end up walking on the treadmill for 30mins instead of anything else 😳

  • @bethaniesharyne6932
    @bethaniesharyne6932 Před 2 lety +1

    Found your channel and I’m obsessed!! Could you consider making a realistic morning/evening routine, more what I eat in a day/q&a so we can get to know you a little more! xx

    Thank you so much for opening up about bulimia I know how shameful and sad it can feel. I personally have been struggling with it for almost two years and it’s been absolute torture on my body and mind, it’s hopeful to hear a healthy relationship with food can be reached because right now I’m 18 and feel like I’ll never be able to have a normal relationship with food again :( would love if you could discuss more when you are ready it makes me feel a little bit less alone xx

    • @hollyb_fitness
      @hollyb_fitness  Před 2 lety +1

    When you were in a deficit how much did you average at losing each week? 1lb or more? Also, can I ask where your gold bracelet is from the one you always have on the wrist with your fitness watch xxx
