Loving how open you are about not knowing what to do exactly and loving your relationship with food. I just noticed you using almond milk, reduced fat peanut butter and in this video low fat yoghurt. I hope it’s just coincidences and I know you’re doing great, love Your new and old content💕
Even if they are intentional, at least she is having them ,even if they are lower in calories , and not completely cutting them out. She is also a recovering anorexic and we all know what a difficult thing that is. Give her some credit.
Keep documenting!! I loved this video and I feel like you should update your feelings too because sometimes it sucks gaining weight but it would help you be more open and real
who woulda thought, that in less than two years, we’d be watching Bec grow from struggling to just go thru 5 food rules, to making a video about WANTING to gain weight... im so proud, and happy to watch this progression :) love you so much Bec 💕💕💕
I hope you don't get obsessed with booty gains and weight lifting and protein powders to get the "perfect Recovery body" because that is just another level of unhealthy
100000% agree.... unfortunately this is where the fitness community infiltrates into the recovery community. People see it as a positive thing that she wants to gain weight but to be completely honest as I said in my comment, if it was fat weight/weight other than gym muscle it would be a completely different story..
Everyone seems to be saying how great this is, and don’t get me wrong, I support Rebecca 100% but I have to be honest that it is actually concerning to me. Trying to gain muscle and “gain a booty” is actually how my ED relapse started. It all seems so innocent at the beginning, so anti-anorexia, after all, you’re trying to gain weight! The problem is, the ED slips in in mysterious ways and this can just be another way to start focusing on the way your body looks again. Long story short, the muscle-building route threw me into another 5 years of exercise addiction, food focus, and body fixation. Rebecca, it’s great that you’re in a place where you aren’t afraid of types of foods/gaining weight anymore. I wouldn’t mess with that! Don’t play with fire. I think that’s one thing we all need to learn (some of us the hard way) in recovery.
Lola P Fair point, I just think it’s one thing to use gaining muscle as a way to encourage yourself INTO recovery. It’s another to start doing it post-recovery, after you’ve already done so much work to divorce yourself from body focus. Again, just my personal take on it, but I think the fitness/bodybuilding industry completely enables eating disorders (not to mention this type of ED is harder to get out of because you can look so “fit” and “healthy”)
Jennifer C I totally agree with you. Unfortunately as people with a history of EDs we never really can spend time trying to change our bodies. I was in the gym today and it was such a struggle not to focus on how my body looks, but rather on getting stronger. I definitely had a similar experience as you did with the gym early in recovery. Recovery is a continuous journey. It requires constant vigilance. It’s just the price you pay for all the freedom it gives you. Stay safe and take care of yourself :)
“Also I don’t rlly know what I’m doing” same here girl, same here... but I’m so proud of you for being able to do it and letting yourself do it that’s amazing
I understand where you’re coming from and I know that it might work for some recovering anorexics, but only SOME. Sure, in the beginning it’ll seem innocent. Like, you’re doing it for YOU! And your booty! It’ll seem positive at first, and it’ll be quite enjoyable. But then it will most definitely (but not 100% certainly of course) turn into another habit, something you have to do. Exercise is another way for your eating disorder to have some kind of control. You’ll tell yourself that it’s for gaining muscle and therefore you can eat more. But, you wouldn’t increase your calories if it weren’t for the exercise. The thing is that exercise makes your anorexia feel good because you’re moving and burning and then it’ll make you feel like you deserve the food more if you’ve exercised. And then, you might find yourself relapsing. Or stuck in quasi recovery forever, anxious whenever you’re missing a workout and planning your whole life around exercise. That’s what happened to me. I strongly recommend you to recover completely and honestly 100% (with no exercise and eating a minimum of 2500 kcal) before you turn to exercise. Watch ladlebyladle on RU-vid and her videos regarding this. She’s completely right. Don’t give anorexia more room, she’s a sneaky bitch and will turn what seems positive into a relapse the first chance she gets. RECOVER. PROPERLY. then, you can exercise. If you feel like it.
The conscious addition of extra snacks is a great way to gain weight :) Yay for your new goal! I love veggie chips and cookies for a snack 🙈 Cereal makes a sick late night snack too..Golden Grahams are where it’s at 😎 best of luck Rebecca!
Gaining weight and getting strong is such a great goal! Have you ever gone to a nutritionist? They can really guide you on how to eat in a way that aligns with your goals.
I commend you on how far you have gotten in this! I have gained weight since my recovery and I have become so obsessed with needing to lose it again. I think this video is what I needed at this time. Also! With all the Hong Kong protests going on, I hope you are staying safe!
Amy McQuillan it’s ok! Deep breath! Don’t undo your progress. I’m sure you’ll get to a point where your mind is more healed & you won’t want to lose weight. It’ll take time, but be patient.☺️ Maybe try to not think about your body as much. ♥️
A tip for your cooking struggles is following recipes (not diet friendly recipes). Also, for weight gain you want to have proper absorbtion of the food thus not eating huge portions and making more snaks, every 2-3 hours... plus I wanna point out the fact that you are still so focused on changing your bodyand it seems clear to me thatyou are in QUASYRECOVERY and NOT recovering properly
Rebecca you are my best friend and I have never even met you. Just wanted to say thank you for existing and showing us how beautiful and freeing life can be
plus i know what yoir brain is doing to you: making up excuses to keep controlling your body and food intake, this time as an attwmpt to create muscle. What u have is an eating disorder still controlling your life. Truwt me coz I and so many more went down the same road and years later I can now see it so I encourage you to really seek help and work on fully recovering
huh? bodybuilding gave me a super healthy relationship with food. before, numbers had so much power over me. now I still have a lot of numbers to look at but they're means to an end. even Spooky Fat has become a simple body fat % that is just part of my path to the body I want. nothing is inherently wrong with wanting a stronger body or liking a certain aesthetic, as long as you don't deprive yourself. and everyone's recovery looks different.
@@WerewolfofEpicness here we have another example of what an obsession does to you. An eating disorder means you obsessively control what you eat and how you look as a form to cope with lifes struggles and emotions. Not letting go of that means you are still on an ed mindset. You NEED your body to look a certain way, and NEED to eat accordingly. ED. Bodybuilding should NOT be about how ur body looks but about the STRENGTH you gain to perform a certain sport . And a booty building plan is jus aesthetic oriented, not health oriented
@@WerewolfofEpicness the reason why you want to achieve the aesthetic goal. Covering up insecurities in most cases. Trynna control sth coz u feel out of control in ur life ...etc
Hi!!! I'M NOT trying to put on weight atm, I'm still in recovery from ed and trying to find peace with food, but the simple fact of watching this type of videos first thing in the morning makes me feel motivated for the day! (I was planning to fast but not anymore ;) ) soooo THANK YOUUUU love youuu! you're the best and I can't wait for the next vid! xX
I’ve been having one of my worst days today and this made me realise that life can have more freedom than mine has and that’s what I really want instead of what my ED is telling me I want. So thank you Rebecca!
when I was obsessed with healthy eating during recovering I would often jump at the chance to eat out and eating anything would taste nice to me (because I was so deprived from months of just quinoa and veggies and bland boiled meat). Now, I'm the pickiest ever and I always try to convince my parents to eat out at nice restaurants on the weekends.
Ahhh i am very inspired by this and have been eating much more and i stopped restricting completely but I just dont feel as good as you?? I feel bloated and too full sometimes?:/
Bell V I’m exactly the same, I’ve been in recovery from September and the bloating is unreal and I feel far too full and I’ve recently been having extreme hunger also :( but I’ve been reading things and the bloating goes away it’s just because our stomachs had shrunk and our digestive system is screwed up as it wasn’t used to digesting foods. We’ll get through this! 💖
have you tried incorporating more vegan foods into your diet? The body can digest vegan foods a lot quicker that it can digest meat, meaning that you don't feel as sick or tired, etc. after a vegan meal as if you have eating something coming from an animal. Worth a try! Doesn't have to be salads just bc its vegan, try vegan meat substitutes, vegan butters and cheeses, vegan ice creams, pasta with tomato sauce, etc!!
Have you tried incorporating more vegan foods? The body can digest vegan food quicker than it can digest meat, and thus after a vegan meal, chances are you won't feel sick, tired, etc. as you can do after a meal with meat. Try out vegan meat substitutes, vegan substitutes for cheese and butter, a LOT of fruit with nut butters for example, pasta with tomato sauce, etc!! Could be helpful and is so good for the animals, the planet and all of us
a bit late, but that's TOTALLY normal! there are actually some videos on this, i recommend looking them up. i'm really happy that you're treating yourself the way you deserve to be treated
looking back, my relationship with food was not great. Sooo, when i first started working out, i lost my period for 6 months bc i was working really hard but not eating enough. I see pictures of me in th epast and frankly its scary as fuck. I am so glad i am out of that now and i have gained a good 25 pounds and more to go. wokring out has transformed my relation with food and i eat to fuel
Do you work out all the time so that you have a flat stomach? Because...I’ve been recovering for about a year now and for me I know i shouldn’t workout to change my body...but rather just for my health. I know if I workout for a certain shape I will be encouraging my eating disorder. I’m just jealous of your fit body and flat stomach. Love your videos.
I love your videos so muchhhhh, Rebecca. Keep it up please. I am looking forward to see your next shot😍😍😍 By the way, which supermarket will u oftenly go in hong kong? Your food looks so special 🤭
Shes exercising so that's probably why. It's probably turning into muscle, I dont think you need to worry. Also I dont think you should comment her on body weight
At the beginning of this year I had the veryy sudden extreme motivation to just gain weight,particularly muscle. Until that point I'd thought I was actually eating enough and was frustrating I wasnt gaining anything? But losing weight. When i put my mind to eat, the transformation was just amazing.. now im just eating more, fuelling my body with love, and loving the process and gainz
If you use a little cornstarch (it might be called something else there) mixed with water, it can thicken up your sauce. Just put the pan on a little lower heat so it doesn't sizzle up lol
YES💖 I want you to continue to do this!!!! I’m also trying to gain muscle, so your new journey made me happy🥰 Also, I want you to show us about your workout at the gym.
we're in the same box. I am in a place now where I want to gain weight and this is crazy because I suffered from anorexia and just adding one calorie at that time seemed a huge deal. I am so proud of myself and so of you
Rebecca, this is something I wanted to emphasize - you are a very precious person. You cannot believe how grateful I am that someone this authentic and inspiring exists. I have had anorexia for ten years and your content encouraged me to start recovery. Although it has been a month since I committed real recovery, your videos keep me motivated. You probably saved my live - I do not attempt being dramatic, but it is the truth. Have a nice day!
This makes my soul so happy 💕 You’ve evolved so much--GET THOSE GAINZ! By the way, will you still be going to the gym or minimizing/not going to the gym anymore?
tomorrow i am being taken into php for the first time. the day after that it is my 15th birthday but all i can focus on is not being able to control what i eat and do anymore. i want to get better but i’ve been so scared and recovery has been nothing but a rollercoaster and it doesn’t feel like my mind is my own. the energy you give off in your videos really remind me that fighting for a life of my own free from my disorder is worth it :’) keep livin it up !!
It's crazy, I've been following you since the begining and recently I've started searching up weight gain/muscle building videos and now you're doing them as well. :) I wish you a happy and succesful journey. I might do this challenge with you but I'm still a little bit scared of big amounts of food (but you help me a lot) and the gym since I'm a teen and i have no idea what to do with weights and machines.
A good way to make a meal more energy dense without having to increase portions too much could be by doing things like buttering your potatoes/pasta or using oil before plating, just to get the energy up a little:) also I really do think what you’re doing is amazing and I’m so glad you’re showing us, we need more of this authenticity on RU-vid!!!❤️
I've been recently diagnosed with anorexia, and finding your channel was honestly a life saver. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with the world, you're very inspiring, and I wish you well on this new journey!
Quinn Seslowsky have you increased your fiber intake? Have more salt? Not have enough fiber? Are you eating enough at meals? There is so many factors. Having mint tea or lemon water helps me personally, I wish you luck 😊 or a probiotic is helpful to aid in digestion!!
I’m so happy the intuitive eating works for her, but that would lead to a giant binge. I would eat a whole box of cereal and a family size bag of popcorn everyday.
i'm a bit late, but that's actually a very natural and normal reaction to restricting yourself! pick up limes, for example, has made a video where she discusses this, it's called "making peace with food". i've been there too, it really does pass :)
Hey I’m a recovered anorexic turned competitive powerlifter. Lifting weights helped me gain weight, it was so great! The most important thing you must do is always always, always fuel your training. Otherwise it’ll be counterproductive and also you won’t be able to lift the weights you could if you fuelled yourself properly. It’s a great step forward for you, just make sure you keep munching! X
Question: do you find this far into recovery that you still sort of “hoard” certain foods? For me, I am mostly weight restored but I have a tendency to, like I once did not log ago, Howard certain “junk” foods like chips, cookies, and candies. Now, my justification is that I eat them much more freely even though not AS freely as I’d like, and I need a lot in case I ever need such an abundant amount at once. 🤷♀️🙄
I love it Rebecca! A notification of your video made my day! Please continue documenting your journey. I really enjoy these kind of videos, you are such an inspiration and a role model for me, struggling from an eating disorder myself. Thank you!🌼⚘💙
can you make an updated video talking about exercise and being active? Its my biggest struggle .. I just cant stop having to have my 30 minutes walking minimum a day and I'm so tired and sick of this routine I have to stick to-or else I'll become a lump :( I look up to you so so much
ive been recovering from anorexia and ever since I deprived myself, I lost all hunger and fullness signals and I literally don't crave anything (unlike before I had an ED). no one has ever experienced this I'm like the only one ahhh ://
i personally can't relate to your situation (sorry), but i do think if you keep eating enough and nourishing your body rather than depriving it, your hunger signals and cravings etc. will come back, it will just take time. your body is used to ignoring all of that, and it might take a bit before it realizes things are going back to before the ed. wishing you luck in your recovery, and sending you lots of love! :)
Aahh you're so inspiring!! I wish I could eat what I want and not care, but sadly my ED always gets the best of me. Anyways, keep up the good work love!!❤❤❤
Particularly loved dis for you but ummm I gotta say clever editing doesn't make it hilarious. Semi-HAES (!) but wow so much internalized fatphobia. Privilege w/r/t food accessiblity in a politically fraught area as a given. Muscle only? What about doing what yr body might want to do? Just asking.
#Inspired. I struggle with body dysphoria, it's such a yo-yo experience of how I see myself. I workout, I eat healthy, I am not anyway near overweight, but still I see myself bigger. I'm on this journey of loving my body because to be honest if you are living your best life your weight shouldn't be the main concern. That's my rant for myself. XD # Muscle gainssss
You mean body dismorphia maybe? Body disphoria is a term used to describe the feeling that your primary and secondary sex characteristics do not match up with your body.. Good luck with your journey!
could you talk about daily life in Hong Kong, I guess it's no different, but it would be interesting to see as I only have an American perspective of a day. ALSO it is so cute how excited you got when Tyler called you after years of dating
