I’m proud of you! I know you may not want advice and I’m sure you already know this, but make sure you don’t cut out everything you enjoy such as treats and what not all at once! In my personal experience, everytime I do that, I always give up my goals pretty quickly because I’m restricting myself too much ❤️ I wish you luck!

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

i don't mind advice! but totally hear ya. i haven't really cut much out, just stuff that actually makes me feel terrible (like chai lattes). still eat cookies every night :)

[@gracelyn5117]

@@chandlerainsleyvlogs Good! You are amazing :) those little things in life are worth enjoying. Also side note, the kitchen is looking great! Have a good weekend!❤️

[@ohladysamantha]

sending your mom healing - while i have a new friend, i lost my cat companion in January and it was so hard. grief sucks.

[@vitoriakreutzwerle]

Oh how I adore long vlogs!!! You are absolutely killing it on the DIYc congrats!!

[@jnezzi]

When you said you were reading little fires everywhere I silently screamed NOOOO….I also read it when I was going through infertility and my thoughts on it were exactly the same as yours. The wallpaper is breathtaking!

[@emmahughes7494]

I love that kitchen 😮

[@ninjaturtles12121]

i'm HOOORRIIBLE at 'discipline' in every aspect of my life so I totally relate

[@raelynmarie16]

i always vote yes on a haircut!

[@lstorm1620]

i LOVE maxton hall! can't wait for season 2 - hopefully it will have more than 6 episodes!! you've motivated me to declutter my house so i can get fun DIY projects done, too. that's one beautiful mural ❤

[@howdyhoward]

your hair always looks stunning its so impressive

[@empressfreya9872]

not you watching Maxton Hall 😂 it's based on the book series by my favorite German author and it was actually filmed in the castle right by my home city! The castle is actually closed for renovations right now but amazon got special permission to film there. It's really weird seeing it in a show

[@thebookishjulie]

Same! I‘m also close from a city close to that castle 😂 it‘s such a shame the book series hasn‘t been translated to english yet

[@v.musing_]

I think your hair is gorgeous right now, but a softly layered haircut would be beautiful on you! I'm typically anti-highlights especially because your dark hair is sooo pretty, but some lighter cool-toned brown throughout could be nice!

[@TheSmalyy]

oh the wallpaper is incredible !

[@LupitaGVera]

I’ve got my snack & drink and so ready for this extra long vlog 😋❤️

[@hiddenrainbow12]

You should watch A discovery of witches (3 seasons). It's a paranormal romance. I was OBSESSED. And matthew goode is beautiful so that's a plus😊

[@EleanorNicBhatair]

I 2nd this, also the books are fab! Book 5 is out soon 😊

[@FranFellow731]

I really love Everything I Never Told You. It’s not what I expected and it was a bit slow going because of that at the start, but once I realized what was going on, it really stuck with me. That being said, while content wise I think you’d like it better, I wouldn’t be shocked if you didn’t like it. I haven’t read her other two books yet.

[@ninjaturtles12121]

hair is soo cute!!

[@francheskagenao]

Young royals on Netflix is 🥰🥺👍🏻😹

[@akiramattingly369]

Watching dramas on the treadmill is what keeps me going, well, because of the drama 😂 not sure if you’ve checked any out, but adult romance is common in kdrama!

[@ninjaturtles12121]

I really liked the little fires show def recommend. race is more of a central issue as it's Kerry w and resse w as the 2 central characters, and not infertility.

[@Dcong16]

I haven’t watched the show you were talking about but I would highly recommend never have I ever if you haven’t watched it yet. Heads up though, grief is a pretty big part of the story, and it might be good to check other trigger warnings. Overall a very funny and heartwarming show though. OH also heartbreak high if you haven’t watched that.

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

never have i ever is HOLY GRAIL status, i love it so so much

[@emeryez]

do you have spare material from building the hood? if you do, maybe try a couple of different stain or paint samples and leave it in your kitchen for a few days to see what fits best.

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

that's smart! i'm more of a caution to the wind girl. i bought a lighter stain, then if i dont like that ill get something slightly darker and if i dont like thaaaat i'll paint it haha

[@kimreese3530]

If you change the closet, where would you go with the litter box? I do love the idea of making it a butler’s pantry. The vent hood is looking great.

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

it would stay where it is, it would just be under a counter top sort of like we have in our laundry room (where our litter robot is)

[@JessicaRoseReads]

❤❤✨

[@jasminehodge58]

I LOVED Maxton Hall! Geek Girl on Netflix is sweeter than Maxton Hall but also a great teen romance!

[@cindicleee]

❤❤❤

[@allisonmyers5874]

As a lit fic hater, i get it 🫱🏼🫲🏼

[@aprilheise397]

Plant Based Bride; we absolutely want to see what you're reading and the cats. ❤😅

[@LC-gw7tp]

Random but in Australia our eggs come in cardboard

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

some do here too, it’s just the expensive ones 😅

[@NonAnonD]

Who is the “olivia” with a vlog reading the blade itself? KZbin search revealed nothing, but i’m thinking about giving the book another chance after dnfing

[@AnastaciyaSh]

I suspect it's Olivia reads a latte... not a 100% sure though!

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

[@user-bg4ig7rl3d]

Oliviateadsalatte, her vlogs are good but be warned usually long

[@user-bg4ig7rl3d]

#oliviareadsalatte

[@lazara7718]

Chandler, where did you get your walking pad/treadmill? I also want to start moving more and being able to walk while watching a show sounds so good Also, will be watching Maxton Hall!

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

it's this one! amzn.to/45mT1aN

[@frongsi536]

I‘d like to see your meals and your cooking progress if this is sth you‘d like to show us.

[@MeganLarabee]

As a non-doctor of course take this with a grain of salt, but my first period post-pregnancy was brutally heavy- I think our bodies just like to be like “surprise bitch, I’m back and better than ever!!” Again, only have my own experience to go off of but I can at least say you’re not alone!

[@itsprobablysummer]

watched this on my little hot girl walk, love love

[@chloeleadbetter6770]

I know it’s probably one of those royalty free songs, but does the song at the 36 minute mark have a name? I like it.

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

i pretty much exclusively use Kylie Dailey songs!

[@chloeleadbetter6770]

@@chandlerainsleyvlogs Cool, thanks.

[@ammasoliman2006]

i honestly think your hair looks great, I would say dont cut it, just grow out your bangs

[@chandlerainsleyvlogs]

thanks! i'm dying without my layers tho lol
