@@elzanisingleton do I have to worry about exercise? I'm normal weight now and I basically eat whatever I want and how much I want but I still have to do exercise. I need to or I don't eat and I'm getting tired of doing so much. I naturally enjoy exercise but this is I'm afraid driven. Can I stop and still eat tons? Please help. Thank you for your videos!
@@zfox8754 I know you are not asking me, but from what I learned even at a healthy weight you are NOT obligated to work out only if you find enjoyment out of it and not base your life around it. If you are working out because of eating disorder thoughts are CONTROLLING you to do so or so that you can eat more food that is not a healthy mindset. If you want to eat, eat because your and your body are telling you to don't let your mind tell you YOU can't eat more just because you aren't working out.
@@ashlynnflory2034 thank you so much for responding! I'm so glad to hear that. I sort of thought that but I was afraid so thank you, I need the support. 💗
Please make a vidio just talking about recovery and how and why and what now like I feel so stuck your motivational speeches used to motivate me so much I love your vidios I think you will have probably have saved so many lives!!!!♥️♥️♥️
her happiness now could act as a reminder to you that recovery is so much more than just food freedom, in elzanis previous channel we never saw her out with friends etc. whereas now she goes out alone and enjoys the greatness that is recovery!
i started recovery 28 days ago and you literally saved me, i cant explain how much you have helped me during my recovery, i really hope to be like you in some months or years. yesterday i ate my first chocolate bar btw :)! huge recovery win
That is wonderful. I’m not at that point yet; I know I’m getting into dangerous territory, but some voice inside of me just won’t let me stop. And I know that that’s kind of BS. Have you seen the Netflix movie called To the Bone? It does show this girl going from getting kicked out of one treatment center in a really hilarious way and if you don’t laugh out loud I’ll be shocked… Lord I forget how young some of you are I hope that you were at least 16 so that I won’t have just suggested a movie with bad language to a kid… In any case my point was That it shows a girl who goes from this treatment Center to home and then immediately into a very alternative type of treatment center run by the doctor Keanu Reeves LOL (that didn’t make me feel old at all) . In any case there is a trigger warning at the beginning as the movie was made by and for people with eating disorders, however it shows how this particular girl has to hit bottom before she can turn around and get better. It is more of a story about what it really feels like and what people really do. There are healthy patients as well who are working the program but if you’re looking at extremely thin people bothers you then it might not be time for this movie. However, at the end there’s a scene where she’s kind of in a dream state and someone in her dream makes her look down and see her naked body; everything Serious is covered; and when she does she finally sees how bad she looks and comes around. It is truly beautiful though and I encourage you to watch it if you can. There is another one called I Am Maris, which is about a girl who is already in recovery and has been for quite a while, she is a yoga teacher like I was, and a beautiful young woman with a very old soul. I love that it’s all based around yoga, and well I have been practicing yoga for Decades there are things that she can do that I can’t do now because I’m not strong enough. I’ve got to build some upper body and core muscles and then order to do that I have to eat protein. I bought some of those bars but I’ve been scared to eat one. Lord I’ve been on here too long once again I’ve got to go if I am going to get any type of jog in before I have to get in the shower in order to be somewhere at four. I have been looking for people to Connect with who are trying to get better. I started an eating disorder recovery group on the Fitbit forum; if you don’t know what a Fitbit is it’s basically a super smart pedometer that tells you how many steps you’ve taken how many calories you burn how many flights of stairs you’ve gone up etc. However as of yet it only has about 16 people And no one is particularly active. I have to screen it’s super carefully because there are some young girls in the group and I can’t have them exposed to some of the creepy ass guys that get on there for the wrong reason it should have a disclaimer that says this is not a dating app dudes LOL oh well boys will be boys. In any case I really am looking for support
So incredibly proud of you Elzani. I don't have an eating disorder, but my 15 year old daughter has anorexia I started watching you to help me understand. Thank you
Now that I'm truly recovering, I can feel your happiness. I... I feel freer than I have ever felt in years. I can't really explain this in English, but I'm happy, for me, for you, and for everyone who is doing everything they can to recover. 💜
Her life is so healthy in all aspects ❤️ she has such strong connections and supporters in her life, spends time outside daily, smiles and laughs a lot, and enjoys her time baking and eating wonderful foods !!! She’s the perfect example of how to live a life you enjoy ❤️
Elzani your eyes are SHINING and you look like you are LIVING your life. So proud of how far you have come, and how much you are an inspiration to the rest of us. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my heart for being the good voice in ED sufferers' heads. Even in mine, having years in to recovery. And for being honest about it not being a perfect journey, but one you can slowly but surely move forward in.
I can tell you're writing the next chapter in your book of life. It makes my heart so incredibly happy to see the progress you've made with your mental health. I have to say, a real inspiration to everyone who has a goal of finding your inner truth. Including me! So I want to say thank you
Honestly, I'm crying. You've been through so much, Elzani, and now look at you! You've developed so much since the beginning of this journey and right now you seem more alive and strong and just full of life than you ever have! The sparkle in your eyes, your smile, your energy - I can't believe how beautiful you are. You are one of the most inspirational channels I've stumbled upon and I'm so thankful you're sharing your journey with us. I'm sure it was difficult as hell sometimes, but you've managed to keep fighting and I'm just in awe. You deserve all the happiness in the world!
This video made me cry!! I cant believe I found your videos again! I used to watch your old channel from the very beginning after you got out of hospital! you look nothing but happy and you have helped me through so much! I love you!
Girl dont let people pressure you talk about recovery until your ready. everyone can see how far you've come just by seeing you latest to your first video. like hello give the girl some time to be happy and eat. i eat with you while watching your videos. its nice to see you happy and dancing around. I've come to love your channel. I stop what im doing, watch the first snip and then watch it all. would love to see you do few more eating like people you admire like the Taylor what i eat in a day or doing the certain food color same all day. id love to see what you would come up with it would be pretty cool to see and creative im sure. sending much love and positive vibes in this crazy year.
Hi, Elzani! I sow EVERYTHING you filmed. I wached some videos many times. Poent is, that you have enough material to make a proper movei for big screen. Your story is about everything that matters, beautiful, strong, funy,family,tears and smiles, lovely food, bottom, recovery, riseing above all problems, kind of story. Iam from Serbia, and i understood everything that happend to you, even though ee are different mentality and i never had anorexia. But that is not importabt, because your story is universal story about LIFE from the very begining, and you have that beautiful smile, it speaks all languages. Please Elzani, show to the world staff that we forgot in this bad, hatefull times, where we all turn back to each other, and nobody see that animals are scared, that nature is crying, that children dont know what means being a kid. You and your family must show to the world what is famiy. We are completly lost.,but your story Elzani, save lives.... Think about this, and sorry if. i made some mistakes in writeing. All love to you and your family.
Elzani, you look absolutely gorgeous!! your body looks stunning!! I absolutely love seeing you come alive before our eyes, it’s truly a miracle. You deserve all the happiness in the world. Could u please make a video about how you’ve dealt with changes to your body and stayed positive? I really struggle with body image and you seem to have such a good handle on it.
You have so much life within you and are my biggest motivation to recovery. Sidenote: I had a nakd bar today! Have wanted one for months and months and just been to scared, but it was amazing!
I am currently in a lecture but omg you look so beautiful I’m the thumbnail. You are so inspiring I want to get better so I can enjoy life as much as you are
Maisy McAdam awww thank you so much!!! You can get better and you will!! Trust me! I never thought I’d ever be close to this and with lots of hard work and never giving up you can always be what you want and live the life you know you deserve! ❤️
Just found this channel adhering not seeing anything on your old page the change in your mood is so drastic since the last videos I had seen. So awesome!!
I’m so proud of you, I’ve actually been watching u since the beginning and to see how far u have come, it’s definitely worth all the struggles u went through, u look so much happier and alive than you’ve ever been from the videos I’ve seen
i love you so much elzani, you encouraged me to chose recovery.. it was so hard but i’m a month and a half into recovery but even being able to do something so small feels scary but like a massive step for me , thank you i love you ❤️
It’s been so beautiful to see you just completely blossom into such an amazing young woman, you should be so proud of yourself Elzani. Absolutely amazing. And that intro!? AMAZING, where are the tissues ?
I have watched every one of your videos since the beginning. It almost seems like I am part of the family and you have helped me so much. I am recovering by myself in Portugal after moci9ng her 5 years ago. You are my inspiration and my recovery buddy. Love you do much and think you are amazing. Not just the recovery journey but who are as a person. I like to think we could have been friends. Keep on being mazing, keep on reaching for those stars your Dad talks about. They are there for you for the taking. You can achieve anything. Huge hugs and love and support. You can recover from this and go on to lead an amazing full life. I believe in you. I now believe in me. BEACUSE OF YOU. XXXXXXXXXX

I have been following your journey and going on my own at the same time and I can’t express how proud I am of you and have far you have come. ❤️ your like a new person, good for you Elzani cx
I really want to strive and be as happy as you have become, you are an amazing person elzani! I suffer with really bad bloating in my recovery and I’m getting quite depressed, but I need to keep going to my set weight ✌🏼
Sometimes someone else close to you has to be your biggest fan...............Keep on striving to that free life babe, keep on pushing, keep on dancing.... we here for you. xxxxxxx
You and your family must be so proud Elzani... You have come so far.. I haven't had to deal with and eating disorder but i do have chronic pain sometimes even getting out our bed is hard but we push ourselves to put a face on no matter how u feel inside... 💚
I haven’t been watching your videos all the time right now I just started watching the menu looks so freaking beautiful while you are doing such a good job and I hope you are future you’ll feel more more happy
Your lucky to have such a beautiful family elzani, I'm on a downward spiral with my anorexia...how can you tell my monster how you are now is better then I am now...for me how I am now can express what I can't irl
hi girl! you are a real inspiration! Do you still have problems with eating or thoughts? I love your latest videos! All what i eat in a day (in recovery) are like, oatmeal in de morning, budha boals, smoothies and salads or avo toast... you make other content, real content. with mindless snacking, wich is normal! Love it! Are you weight restored or are you still gaining weight. I stoped weighing myself and its really helpfull.
I'dove to see a video what you eat in a day with labels like the old videos.. Meal.. Snack.. Dessert. Its a great way to see what can be possible what I can have when.. Never sure about that
Weetabix Krispy minis are the best aren’t they! Would you please do a video on your exercise and how you got back into it? Also is it possible for sometimes in your videos for you to mention the times that you eat? Doesn’t have to be exact time obviously but sometimes I get panicked that I’m eating too early in the day or too late at night or too close to another meal/snack (all the usual stupid eating disorder shit) and I just thought it might be helpful
