Alexandra Rodriguez DONE with Weight Loss

That poor baby really is just a checked off box to her.... its really sad.

[@albinosaschoopasquatch4455]

This was my guess

[@albinosaschoopasquatch4455]

​@ximar0ckstrx That is sad. She could use her kid as motivation. Babies struggle to gain strength to hold their heads up and move. Moms can use them as inspiration and gain strength in solidarity with their growing babies. Who wouldn't want to be healthy FOR their kids?

[@erlandaislund4594]

​@@albinosaschoopasquatch4455that is why i hate those "health at every size" doctors so much. They justset up kids for an early loss.

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

The BoPo/FA people do that consistently, the "body count" in their vlogs, articles or what medium they use is humongous. According to Graphically Alex it's a feature of obsession with people in active eating disorder (he is a recovered be himself).

[@LoriKopf]

How can the journey be "worn out" when she's still over 300 pounds? 🙄

[@PennyMsElite]

Sounds like she got tired

[@Tocinos]

Keep in mind, in order to remain 300 pounds, she has to deliberately overfeed herself, whereas any normal calorie count would put her in a deficit relative to the amount it'd take her to maintain, meaning all it takes to lose weight for her is not overeating. I'm a 220 pound strongman lifter and more than likely eat less calories than her, even when on a bulk. Right now I'm on a cut, trying to finish the week 5000 calories below maintenance in total, meaning I'd lose about 1.5 pounds a week, and surely enough I've been losing 1.5 pounds a week because I abide by the same law of thermodyamics that everyone else abides by.

[@lifewithsarahf2858]

She is closer to 400, nearly back to her starting weight before WLS, in her new vlogs it’s as clear as day.

You were too easy on her as always John, the reason why she has privated all those videos is she is getting lots of new subscribers asking her if she had a gastric bypass how come she hasn’t lost any weight so she has gone through and removed all evidence it ever happened to try to save face. She says she lost over 100lbs and kept it off but we have eyes, she is almost back to where she was when she went for the weight loss surgery which she stated is 400lbs. How can anyone still be even close to 400lbs only 2 years after a gastric bypass? She had surgery thinking it would solve her problems then didnt put the work in and now she’s embarrassed and that’s the end of it, I’d be embarrassed too if I were her.

[@ximar0ckstrx]

Alex had her surgery at the same time I had mine so it will be 3 years on November. I was never as big as her, but I lost 100 lbs and have been maintaining at 165 for 1.5 years now (this weight works well for my height and health). It blows my mind how little work Alex put it... she was drinking sugar loaded coffees just weeks after the surgery. I was still on puree foods and she was drinking through a straw (youre not supposed to) and eating a bunch of crap. She really out-ate the surgery. But she's had multiple weight loss surgeries, tummy ticks, skin removals, and Liposculpting... and she's still almost 400 lbs!!!! Like wtf?!?!!!

[@lifewithsarahf2858]

@ well done on your weight loss 👏 you are quite right she didn’t even try! If she had she would have been able to maintain the weight she did lose. Her lowest weight was still 300lbs after gastric bypass which is just absolutely insane! It puts it into perspective

[@emcav00]

Coming from someone who's on a weight loss journey, it always makes me sad when I see people do so much to lose weight, especially because they want children (another example being Amy Slaton) and then as soon as their fertility stabilizes, they start trying to get pregnant, and once they are, weight loss goes out the window. Its the whole "I lost enough weight to conceive and carry, so I'm done." mentality that sucks. We can't keep lying to ourselves that weight doesn't hold us back ESPECIALLY when it comes to playing with and raising your children. Why wouldn't you want to be in the best possible physical condition for your children? Be able to run around with them, play on a playground set with them, go on amusement park rides with them? Of course, obese parents can still be great parents, but the health and stamina consequences for your children are going to affect them, whether you notice it or not.

[@Lau3464l]

Pregnancy while obese leads to a massive increased risk of pregnancy complications too, many of which can be lethal. Pregnancy is so dangerous even in the healthiest bodies.

[@Tocinos]

You weren't fat, you were on a bulk. 💪🏼

[@dreamerlotus]

Having seen people lose parents young due to obesity, this is absolutely spot on. You should want to be around for as long as possible with your children.

[@catsonmars28]

Totally agree with you. The thought also occurred to me that if she has bad eating habits, what is her child going to pick up from her? Are they going to end up repeating the same patterns as their mom?

[@emcav00]

@@dreamerlotus exactly. I loss my dad when I was 19 (he was 50) due to complications from type 2 diabetes. Even though he spent the last 10 years of his life trying to get healthy, it wasn’t enough. Obesity and diabetes causes irreversible damage to health if left unchecked. He was the best dad I could’ve asked for, raised me to be strong, courageous, and compassionate. It absolutely crumbled me when he left so suddenly. But it was also a wake up call. I was headed down the same path. I don’t want my future children to go through what I went through. 19 is too young to bury one parent and try to keep the other parent from drowning in grief.

[@tangie06_33]

Alex wants to delete her video because she has contradicted herself SO much. She had the second WLS because she wanted to be healthy. Now she claims she IS healthy despite being very close to her pre WLS weight. She wants to put her head in the sand and pretend she is not super morbidly obese and act like it's not a problem. She is a mother now. It's a problem. Even moreso than before. Alex simply does not want to lose weight.

[@Salem_Witch_Trial_Logic]

My guess is she doesn’t want to moderate her food intake to a healthy level. Though she can’t run from herself forever, especially when she’s on the internet like this. She can either face herself and be real honest about getting help for what she struggles with or she can keep telling herself lies and stay in her delusions.

[@MsSexyMexy609]

Mind you there's still "weight related" videos available on her channel but she leaves those up because she has stuff linked in them that reels in the $$

[@MzAbstractMind]

That rant she did is because she told her viewers she lost all the pregnancy weight, almost immediately, after giving birth. However, Alex ended up in a stranger’s vlog…no filters. It showed she has been lying and using filters to look smaller. Instead of her just being honest, she lashed out and used Oprah 🥴

I'm with you, she had a very condescending attitude in that video. She's a walking contradiction though. She wants to talk about weight when she's losing it and getting compliments on her body (and free co-pilot sponsorships). She doesn't want to talk about weight when she's gaining it back and she's ashamed of her body. She's clearly gained weight prior to pregnancy, and with pregnancy, and she's making it clear that she won't be addressing it which is fine. But don't act like you would have the same platform you do if you didn't make all of the health, fitness, and weight related videos in your past. Girl, please.

I've seen people get thin after bypass and then gain weight back. Alex didn't even make it to that point.

[@GlitterbugUSA]

A lot of people think she will be taking a weight loss drug after the holidays. If she really is successful with that she will absolutely make her weight a focus again. The only reason she doesn’t want to talk about it now is because she’s failed 4 weight related surgeries. The only reason she even has a job is because she shared herself as a plus size person. It’s hypocritical to say she’s done now when that topic gave her money to buy all the material things she has.

[@whitepeach214]

Someone said this before so I don’t want to take credit but they said, if she had been successful in her weight loss, she would not be shutting up about it! Her main focus would still be about weight and fitness but she failed. She failed multiple times and people will continue to call her out for it because how do you have gastric bypass TWICE and are still 300+ lbs? So she’s embarrassed and it’s a never ending cycle with her but she chose to put all of this out there.

[@dharad.felton9697]

One of the problems with Alex is she has nothing interesting about her except her weight loss/ gain journey. When views start to dwindle because people are tired of her re- redecorating her living room, or seeing her slather makeup on her face for the millionth time, she will go back to what gives her views, ie. money, and that is her clickbait weight videos. I don't think there is really anything wrong with taking her channel in a different direction, but the problem with Alex is, she likes things easy and is exceptionally lazy, so her content will never be as relateable as her weight struggles or as interesting.

[@Katie_Lopez]

I get that she wants to evolve her channel into a “lifestyle vlog” but to remove the past videos would really alienate her audience. Then again, maybe that’s the goal so that no one can critique her or hold her accountable for goals that she’s mentioned & tried to reach in the past.

It’s been a long journey with my weight due to PCOS and other medical issues, on top of BED. Go to therapy, find someone that understands where you’re coming from but will hold you accountable. Look for doctors that will actually look into things beyond just telling you to lose weight if you have medical issues, treatment for PCOS was crucial for me to do IN TANDEM with weight loss. Start slow with small but consistent changes, for me a huge focus for both BED and PCOS recovery that also helps with weight loss is eating 3 meals a day, I set alarms and have it scheduled so I don’t fall back into not eating all day and then bingeing at night. Just that change has been tremendously helpful for me, and now I’ve been working on the content of the meals themselves.

The fact that she FAILED to follow the guidelines in relation to each weight loss procedure and gained weight in the process, is bound to yield questions and comments. Now she's on this "I don't wanna talk about it" trajectory because she knows she's failed to keep to her end of the bargain, and now she's gone back and dived into the Fat Acceptance/HAES rhetoric because she didn't take any of the procedures seriously by putting in the work necessary to keep the weight off.

Alex is taking the stance that weight loss isn’t necessary, weight issues should be swept under the rug, and that weight does not impact health, which is very dangerous for her and the viewers she may influence.

[@rebeccaw1108]

When you are very overweight, weight loss is not that hard. You just have to cut out the junk and start cooking at home more, and be more active, and it will happen overtime. I think she probably cuts her calories super low, where it is unsustainable, and then falls off the wagon and binges. When losing weight, you should be eating as many calories as possible while still being in a slight deficit. You need to fill up on high fiber whole foods. At least 30 g of fiber per day. She probably goes on diets instead of having a healthy overall lifestyle. Going plantbased has made me kept weight off for many years because i treat it like a lifestyle, not a diet. Weight loss should be slow, not within a few weeks or a couple months. It should take several months to a year, done sustainably.

Weight loss isn’t hard when core issues are addressed why a person overeats and people that still struggle and fail in their journey are not addressing the real issues and using body positivity rhetoric to detach away from the real issues why being overweight isn’t good by attaching morality to the weight which makes no sense as an argument that a lot of body positivity people use to get their point across why they fail at weight loss and feel like the weight isn’t the issue the issue is how society perceives overweight and obese people. Yeah being obese and overweight is bad being over weight doesn’t make you a bad person can we speperate these two things because they are not the same thing. Alex, amber, Chantal all use social media to earn money projecting their issues on being overweight that’s the crux of their channels and why people watch. If these woman don’t want to be known for that anymore then change the content don’t make a video and say I change my mind and expect people to be ok with it and support you on whatever new venture you want to undertake. There’s nothing genuine about it just like the weight content.

You are more than your weight. You are also more than your hobbies. You are more than your clothes. You are more than your sleeping habits. You are more than any individual thing you can think of... So what? You can still talk about those things and that doesn't mean none of those things are important. For losing weight I wish it was more discussed as "losing excess fat" because that's really the issue, losing weight in general which can include muscle weight is not always just positive. I lost weight too fast so I lost too much muscle, that wasn't good. Now I'm gaining weight while weight lifting to regain muscle, and later I will do a cut to lose extra fat I don't want.

[@mel_moon18]

She just wants to gorge herself

[@mel_moon18]

She loves using the word “cozy”. If it ain’t cozy she doesn’t want it. She’s delusional.

[@SarahFunes]

She can’t have it both ways. Either she wants to be a weight loss channel or she wants to not be popular. People watch her for that reason. That’s the reality.

[@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory]

I’m a full grown woman but would like someone to applaud my restraint, good god that woman set up so many inappropriate jokes…

[@KossolaxtheForesworn]

to quote Spy from TF2; " 🥃Congratulations, you're a failure." because she has now failed.

[@lollydontcry]

omg your current style suits you waaay better than previous one (with piercings and blonde hair)

[@lindsey.quinn89]

Those weight related videos that that got more views, the ones that are so “mind boggling” to her, performed that way because of the titles! She knows they do better, that’s why she titles them the way she does. I unsubscribed from her a couple years ago.

[@Louiseonajourney]

What a great way for her to make sure that her old videos are getting more views and creates more income...

[@itrasheditgood]

You shouldn’t erase your past, the reason why you are who are today, is because of your past experiences.

[@MeganBecker]

I'd have more respect for her if she went ahead and set those videos to private, came on here and said, "Y'all, I'm revamping my channel in an effort to put more focus on raising my family and how I have adjusted my life as a result." Because truthfully, it's her channel. Who the heck cares what she does with it? Doing it this way is like she is manipulating her audience to comment with things like, nooooo, we love all your videos, keep theeeeemmmm. I could be biased because I genuinely feel like she is insincere, off, and condescending too, like you said. (She is also using her baby for views like a new holiday living room decoration, but I digress.) Thanks for the video!

[@kerisallee3038]

5:06 it’s not mind boggling that your top performing videos are about weight loss when the majority of your content is about losing weight. It’s just math. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@katiehake3365]

Putting yourself online and talking about losing weight then don’t want to believe you fail is your problem because people like us look up to you seeing your getting healthier and losing weight and then stop trying can be frustrating I been trying to get healthier and have lost weight dealing with pcos and hypothyroidism makes it harder for you to lose weight but if you can find the right doctor that understands what your going through you might be willing to continue I use to be 363 now I’m down to 295-297 it a long journey for what makes you feel better about yourself I been lucky since I’m in wegovy it had control my hunger a lot so I’m not eating a lot when i used to I see my weight loss doctor on Election Day this year November 5

[@SnowyOwl1588]

Why doesn’t she just take zepbound and work out? I don’t get it. She has a child now to be healthy for…

[@lissyquezada2668]

As far as I know she suffer from hipothyroidism and the bad type the hashimotos. Its an struggle and it affect us mentally, my prayers towards her. I know the struggle !

[@epowell4211]

I've been on a fitness/wellness/weight loss/health journey for 30 months - the longest I've ever been consistently working toward my goal. I imagine she is tired of talking about it, tired of the discussions and judgements, tired of thinking about it herself, and tired of having what she shared previously brought back up. I don't really want to talk about my unsuccessful attempts at all, and really don't want to share much about my current journey, and I'm not public on social media. I never could stand an actor who badmouthed a film they worked on, even if the film tanked, but it's so much worse when they do that about their career-maker role. They always sound insulting to their fans, like, "how could you watch that drivel?" Very ungrateful and self centered - only seeing the world through how it affects them, not what it gave to others. Becoming a mother puts you in a very fragile (like a bomb, not a flower lol) state, so it makes sense that she is having this crisis now. My opinion is maybe she should give up social media entirely and just enjoy her life, or at least start a new channel with her new focus, and just let the other one be - ignore notifications of comments on it, etc. - only post there again if she wants to open that can of worms.

[@elainedavis9053]

This is awful --- She just had a baby!! SMDH

[@Goriewhorie]

Sounds like she should just make a whole new channel but she shouldn’t use her following she currently has for it

[@One_story_atta_time]

I think she’s just tired of ppl using her past, weight , relationships, etc as weapon against her. Ppl love to your past words and actions and throw it in your face when you walk or stumble off your current path. It gets old and she’s done with it. That’s the message I got from that. Ppl need to realize ppls attitudes, opinions, stance change throughout life and that’s all apart of growing up. We should all take a lesson in that.

[@melodyillene]

Surgery and ozempic arnt easy fixes and I hate that she wants to throw away her whole community why not start a separate channel that’s about everything she likes keeps her weight channel then she would have two streams of income and two different fan bases.

[@SineadybabyBL]

She does realise Oprah is still very much involved in the weightloss industry in the form of GLP-1s 😂

[@POV18]

Eating non ultra processed food isn't a diet. I'm tired of hearing that.

[@becoming_keshia]

I think she's not going to talk aout her weight online but she will for sure be trying to lose weight & be healthy because she has a child. And one thing your kids will motivate you to do is get healthy for longevity and to be around for your kids.

[@Ether-the-great]

No "I'm early" on John's video. He deserves better.

[@elektraantoniadou2590]

Oh John, you are so damn beautiful with your hair long, you are the absolutely best of you right now, cudos! I'd guest it is the perfect time to start a family with your sweetheart. I would if I was her. Love from Greece

[@marcotiozzo3314]

Alexandra Rodriguez forgot that she only became relevant when she acted like a victim for being fat

[@lja530]

If she feels she's done with it she should just try focusing on other things and see how that goes for her. Nobody's stopping her and nobody has in the past 🤷

[@sandrastevens411]

Definitely a journey 😊

[@mmanda515]

Anything is possible & no one knows her actual journey unless they know her personally. That said, imho/experience, frankly IDK how she claims to have had "gastric bypass" specifically & a) didn't lose the weight, quickly & ESP at first + b) how on Earth she eats the way she does. She ate so much/so many of the wrong things right from the start. RIGHT after surgery at holidays. I watched, blown away. HOW?? Never on video do you hear her experiencing or speaking about dumping syndrome or not feeling well... esp when out/about/on vacation, etc. w/ her mom at fairs, fests... where she indulges in soft breads, pasta, rice, burger buns, high sugar foods, etc. Idk, maybe she didn't have a full Roux-en-Y? Maybe she had a different, newer procedure due to her claiming to have had a lap band earlier on in life? Maybe she had a mini-bypass or duodenal switch or vsg/sleeve? 21 yrs later & I still cannot eat a lot. Still cannot eat soft breads, pasta, rice, potato & have to take smaller bites, eat slowly. If I ate a deep fried oreo at a fair, cotton candy, a hot dog (on a bun) or the pasta dishes she does... I'd be on the FLOOR, sick as a dog.

[@SineadybabyBL]

I had a mini bypass. It is NOT a partial surgery it is a different surgery to RNY-it has a better and higher success rate when it comes to weightloss and you still get dumping syndrome etc. A duodineal swith again is not a lesser syrgery to RNY but a different one and is very rarely the recommended wls-its usually performed as revision surgery when rny or mgb fails to result in WL.

[@lct7192000]

Alex reached her goal to have her baby, though I think she wants children so if she can't get pregnant, I'm sure she will revisit losing weight again. I think Alex is saying she wants to change her channel to be about motherhood and family without saying it. If she says it many may decide to stop watching her. It's her bread and butter but that's her choice. There are many successful family oriented channels on KZbin. I think Alex has matured a bit. As you get older, you compare yourself to others less (assuming you start liking yourself more and realizing that your body is God's temple and you need to care for it and not by surgeries. Food is Medicine). Alex's style of clothing has changed. She's not wearing super tight leggings like the teens and cropped tops to accentuate the bad parts. She's still doing the makeup stuff which I have very little interest in. I like that her husband is Dominican (mother was Dominucan) and I'll continue watching her channel to see how she & Yarmayn raise their children multiculturally
