I have to say from personal experience when I finally made the switch to trying to build strength vs trying to lose weight it was a complete mindset shift. I started loving my body for how strong it was and what it was capable of. I also started living like my “ideal self”. My ideal self worked out, stretched most days, went on walks. I also had more intelectual goals like reading more and learning Spanish. Eventually I started to slowly increase food without tracking, focusing more on protein intake than anything else. After several months of this I recently decided I was in a healthy place mentally to start tracking my food to be more intentional with my goals. I now eat more food than I’ve ever eaten, yet look the best I’ve ever looked. I still want to cut eventually, but taking this route was definitely soul healing for me.

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

Yessssd 💃🏼🙌🏻😍 I love this so much! It truly is such a profound shift and definitely translates to other aspects of life outside of fitness, like you experienced!

This was a lovely video. I would love to see my body at its peak esthetic, but my main goal is to help it heal. I want to give it nutrients to literally heal wounds and to give me energy to grow muscles and stamina to keep up with my kids. It feels silly, but ill write three positive things about myself:1. I preserve through hardships. 2. I seek opportunities to grow. 3. I am able to criticize myself without those criticisms clouding out the positive attributes I possess.

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

I think those are some fantastic goals! And there’s nothing wrong with also wanting to look your best - as long as it’s not coming from a place of self-hate 🥰

[@rainbowtravelingyogi]

Great video❤ To respond the the 3 things I love about myself 1. I leave space for others to be exactly as they are without judgement 2. I leave space for myself to go through highs and lows and not judge myself for it. I accept that’s just part of being human. 3. That I can find things to appreciate about my surroundings easily, which leads to expressions of awe or appreciation. ❤

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

These are absolutely AMAZING!! 😍🙌🏻 And so valuable! Thank you for sharing!

My mom passed away just a few weeks ago and I believe a legacy she’s left behind for myself, and my two sisters is to not spend 80 years of your life, hating your body. She never realize how beautiful she was, and always struggled with her weight, and after debilitating stroke, she spent the past 4 1/2 years in a wheelchair. Today I’m going to remind myself that my body is strong enough to walk on its own, my body can repair itself, and my body takes care of me every day. Switching subject, so I don’t tear up, I would love to know what software you’re using to edit your videos. I love all of the graphics, swishing, sound effects, etc. I use my KZbin channel as a library videos for my career and business coaching clients but I know I could do better. Lol. Thank you for all the wonderful content. I’ve only discovered you this weekend, and have probably already binged-watched most of your videos, including the 3-day water, fast videos. I did my first 3-day water fast this year and loved it.

[@corkandbeans392]

Crying on a random Tuesday thank you for this reminder

[@corkandbeans392]

1. I love the work I do 2. I love my capacity for empathy 3. I love how ambitious I am. This was an incredible video! Love this so much and I’ll be sharing it with my clients.

[@breannrush9479]

I think something that's important to remember, when it comes to looking at your body. Aesthetically is that even people who are anorexically skinny still don't like how they look... So it's not about how you look. It should be about how you feel. No matter how thin you get, that doesn't guarantee that you will like yourSELF.

[@julz_m]

🙋‍♀️ Would listen to the podcast, especially because you love to go deep on a topic. I would want your Mom to guest star occasionally and discuss how she and your Dad approached raising you guys and supported you to become the amazing, healthy person you are. #MamaNerdyFanClub

[@corkandbeans392]

Soooo true that cravings dont necessarily mean we need to solve them all with food

[@nomadiccleric5672]

I love my dedication I love my creativity I love my travel cravings and fulfilments

[@valeriehearn9800]

Hey I’ve been following you for years developed lupus eating disorder and may or may not have just tested positive for insulin resistant and I’m freaking out. I want a consult or chat with you this is traumatizing idek where to start or what to do. I am a nutritionist too myself

[@amynoonanmusic]

Yes!! Thank you for spreading this word. And hehe...may I suggest a bit of a drinking game for this video?? Grab your boozey 'buch', and take a sip every time Marisa says, "value" or "values"!

Thanks

Thanks for watching!

[@molasorrosalom4846]

It's insane, how health and fitness isn't a priority, for so many people. Luckily, there are people like you who can possibly change just one person's life. Hope you're doing well.

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

Honestly, as much as I value it and personally believe almost people would benefit from valuing it too, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with consciously choosing to value other things more. As long as you know what you’re choosing and what you’re sacrificing and that decision is made with intent, it’s up to you! No matter what you choose to value, you’re sacrificing something else. I’m not gonna judge anyone for not sharing my values

[@punk10105]

I have never heard the idea of body neutrality and I love this concept

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

I definitely recommend looking into it more! I absolutely prefer it to body positivity

[@callievick941]

LOVED TIS thank you for spreading a healthy message

Definitely needed if you’re planning on healing your body. 🌷

Loved this video!! So many good nuggets! Gonna go back and watch it again and take notes!! 3 things I love about me: I’m kind, I love to smile, I’m a good listener. ❤

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

I love these! Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰

[@princessslovesu]

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

Yay! I love these so much! Thank you for sharing! 🥰🙏

[@jenmessier2195]

Love your analogy of intuitive eating, it's not just permission to eat so the garbage food...

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

Yeah honestly as necessary as the current definition of “intuitive eating” is (ie. Eating impulsively and not worrying about it) for some people and helping them heal from restrictive eating, I think it does a huge disservice to everyone else who isn’t coming from that same background. I wish they had used a different term because idk what else to call my version of intuitive eating lol

[@masonmmjmu]

This is a really great video

[@jameschapman8912]

This video made me cry a little bit, hearing you talk about accepting the parts of yourself that drive people pleasing tendencies because they have your best interests at heart, I needed to hear that. Things I love about myself: 1. I love how expressive/free I feel dancing and that people are pleased by seeing me dance or dancing with me. 2. I love that I'm curious and enjoy learning about all sorts of things including other people's stories. 3. I love that I care about the planet including all the people on it.

[@Aa-ll1sy]

this is the video I NEEDED ❤❤❤ I am trying to move my focus more to feeling good rather than “progress” (whatever that means lol). You’ve inspired me a lot in my fitness journey since 2020 now.

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

I love this shift! That’s amazing! And thank you so much for sticking with my channel for so long 🥰

[@laural6479]

These are wonderful tips. Thanks Marissa!

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

Thanks so much for watching!! 🥰🙏

[@jocelynwyatt4691]

You should 100% start a podcast! I’ve watched you for years and always thought this! 💖

[@angelchang7303]

This is the first time me commenting on any videos I think ❤️ Genuinely love all the scientific/self care videos. Recently having some problems with sleep and is doing everything that I can do to make it better (night routine, avoid screen, getting sunlight and supplements and so on.) Every time searching the internet about sleep, it’s almost like receiving tons of threats about how not sleeping will slowly kill you and all your workout progress. Which makes the stress even worse. I would love to here your insight on taking things slowly, be gentle to yourself on things we can’t control and how not to stress about not optimizing everything in life 🙏 thank you so much ~

[@kathrynkerin-nw3kv]

This was fantastic! Would love to see at least another video going into more detail on some of those points you missed that would make it a full length podcast.

[@suzitarot4444]

Thank you so much for this! 💜

[@olivepeterson4424]

This video makes me feel like I have the emotional and value based tools to chance my health. Thank you. I can’t wait to see where I am in a year. ❤️

[@BrittanyTD20]

1. I love how nice I am to people. 2. I love how people are sooo comfortable around me even when they first meet me. 3. I love my personality when I’m actually used to someone. I tend to be more goofy and I like that.

[@MissFitAndNerdy]

I very strongly identify with the third one haha. I love these! Shank you for sharing!
