Hiking is my go-to physical activity. I have struggled all my life with my weight, and I think you have the best attitude about it all. I also know first-hand how a trail can heal the pain life brings us. You should be very proud of all you've done this year. ❤🎉

8 kg is still massive, congratulations!!! 👏☺ Happily, I achieved my biggest goal: getting my driving license. At 33, I finally got it!!! I started lessons when I was 18 (standard as a European) but before I got my license I started getting panic attacks and was put on heavy medication which would have made it dangerous to drive (they made me very drowsy). After years of testing out different anti-anxiety medications and working through my panic attacks, I finally felt confident enough (and it was now safe) to drive. The only downside is the 25 kg that I put on as a side effect of said medication (which I have to stay on), ideally, I'd like to move the scale back down again, I'm not fixed on any number in particular though. Getting moving again is the goal (I enjoy dancing as my "sport" of choice) 💃🎶🥰 Best of luck to everyone on their 2025 goals!!! 💪☺

I got my driving license when I was 44 years old. There were three types of exams. The last type I took 5 times and at last I passed it. 🎉

@ Right?! We’re all on different life journeys you never know what someone might be going through, not judging should be a given! ☺️💕

I find your channel, besides often hilarious, also inspiring. I've struggled with my weight all my life and your videos put into perspective all the fake shit that's being posted online. Thank you! (My year: minus 4kg)

Your channel is a huge inspiration. Never give up! It's better to be heavy and doing positive things than being skinny and being lived by diets and the idea of what and how you "should be". My goal for next year: do ehat you do and be happy doing it.

Hiking brings me so much joy too, I’ll add that to my 2025 goal Thankyou for the inspiration!😊 I’ve shamed my body a lot over my life whether I’ve been skinnier or thicker (also almost 30!) and I’m finally realizing it truly doesn’t matter as long as I’m treating it kindly and doing the things I love. At the end of my life I don’t think one of my regrets would be “wow I wish I was skinnier” it would probably be more like “wow I wish I hadn’t spent many years judging myself so harshly.” Also my favorite characters in stories arnt the skinniest but the thoughtful kind, brave ones, those grow on people the most. I don’t think we all need to be the “skinny glamorous elf” to be worthy lol. There are plenty of us dwarves and hobbits who are just as so😂 My deepest sympathies for your grandmother by the way, She is very lucky to have a grandson like you.

I think what we expected from the year 2024 in January wasn't the things we achieved - as it happens every year. There's a saying: "Life is what happens as you have other plans!" But along the way, maybe not the way we wanted, but the one we had to take, events unfolded who cheered us up. Events who showed us new ways to see the world and/or other people. Maybe rules we had established in our daily schedules weren't no longer good for us. Maybe people we called friends showed there true self as circumstances changed. You have turned your life around - you didn't fail (but you know this already), you're on a new journal and I'm happy that I found you in the big wild ocean of the WWW. Focus on your well being, not on your weight loss. As you're going out more on hikes, eating healthier... as soon as your focus is no longer on the weight loss but on a healthy lifestyle you will loose more pounds. Thank you for all your honest videos and that you're sharing them with us. I wish you a peaceful Christmas time and I really envy you for the ability to walk through the beautiful historic German town of Trier with all the nice Christmas decorations and Christmas Markets. Take care and all the best from Canada! ❤🌲

Why would we shame you? All of us struggle with a challenge of so. I didn't lose weight either. And I changed my goal for 2025: Find more happiness in everyday life, work for life and not live for work.
