I had to laugh when you confessed to becoming obsessed and bingeing other people's videos on KZbin because thats where I'm at with yours! You're super inspirational and have such good vibes 💜

[@fairyqueen4143]

Can you eat breakfast before gym ? Isn't it bad ?

@@fairyqueen4143 a pre workout snack is good but a whole meal tends to make people nauseous so it’s depends on the person

Same!! And I do with KZbinrs all the time. My other current obsession is Selena Trevino

[@sarayingling318]

THANK YOU for emphasizing the importance of sleep & going to bed early if you want to wake up early! So many of these early morning routine videos skip right over that, so many people are probably still going to bed at 11 and trying to wake up at 4,5,6 am like their favorite influencer & then getting burnt out after a week…

[@kate.garofalo]

I’m watching this at midnight and was like ohhhh that’s where I went wrong 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@dsteward85]

Im just going to bed at 5am here. I need a new job.

[@NopeNotToday26]

@@dsteward85 Agreed. I work nights and I hate it..I truly do.

[@sabatounsi3999]

Your 5 am morning routine is sooo relax 😌 Mine is a sprint ! I start my work at the hospital at 7h15 am , so I wake up at 5 am , wash my face with cold water , drink lemon water, get dressed to the gym ( luckily is in the same building where I stay ) . 40 to 45 min exercise. Shower, get dressed for work, preper my lunch box , 6h30 I'm in the car driving to work 🙃 and to make it works no snooze! Never 😅

[@cassandranguyen7373]

omg im the same , I feel so rushed !

[@xxxxel6736]

Incredible that must take so much self discipline

[@alisonvalbuena1044]

Hahaha 😂 thank you. I was looking for this comment ❤ My 5am morning routine is also super rushed 😅 My gym is 10 min walking distance and during the winter is absolutely horrible to do the walk 😜🥲

[@hoperissa4253]

At last I coukd relate.. but I skip exercise because felt too tired since I went home late at night due to work.

[@MN-je5uo]

What time do you go to bed 🛌?

[@DanielleBabyBliss]

I am about to get melodramatic. But Sophie, you have no idea how much you helped me get out of a dark spot the last few months. I have followed you for years but this last few months you have been like a light in the dark. I appreciate every upload and all the hard work. I was having a rough morning and to see an upload from you completely changed my attitude and I’m feeling less alone. Going to go to the gym now. Lately a few things help, some friends, my gym, and your videos! 🌸

[@Nikki-qw5il]

Just wanted to say well done and keep going xx

🙌🏾 You are AMAZING! -- keep showing up for youuu 🫶🏽

[@apryl.connors5155]

Kudos to you. I wakeup at 430 am, 3-4 days a week for work, sleep in on my days off. Sure I could get up early, but my body needs the rest. Working 12 hr shifts, hard physical labor really takes it out on a person. There are days when I get up around 7ish, but sometimes that's even rough.

[@tammystiletto]

Definitely unrated advice 🙌🏻 I got up at 4 am for years to open at cafe, and then one day after about two years I just started over sleeping and shutting down. I had to switch to mid shift and sneak my way into closing. My managers hated me but my body chemistry had always been a creative night owl and not and early riser. I was able to force it for a while but then I had to give my body rest, and restart at the time it wanted.

[@jamiemarsden3823]

wow poor you lol who even gets up before 10am?! you wake up earlier than the body/mind requires you just end up looking and feeling like a strained out teabag so why throw yourself to the meat grinder? doesn't make any sense.. :/

[@joannelaird5294]

This week after having months of not feeling great mentally I got up and went to the gym for 6am three times and did a 35 minute workout. Home by 7am to get ready to travel into London to work. The mental shift has been huge. Saturday did it again. Went early and felt amazing. I have to have everything ready to go so I can literally roll out of bed into my workout gear. Have eaten well and the foggy cloud had lifted. ❤️ I love your videos and all the food you make. You feed yourself with goodness. Yum xxx

[@andreadeans2520]

You actually seem extremely genuine and motivated which is refreshing to see , I will take some of these tips, your lifestyle really inspires me!

[@aliinalange2616]

Totally agree with you to move your body and follow what your body feels like doing and you will feel AWAKE and mood boosted! More videos please! Sending love 🧘🏼‍♀️❤️❤️

[@jessicab3951]

Love that you mentioned sleep- I go to bed at 8pm/8:15 to be in the gym by 4:20am latest. I will never skimp on sleep, or eating nutritious food throughout the day and making sure I enjoy it. I’ve learnt my lesson from going to the gym on and off. I go to the gym at the same time daily, and sleep at the same time daily. I used to feel guilty for having a routine, picking out my outfits the night before, planning and placing my breakfast items, vitamins in obvious places in my kitchen but I no longer do- people used to nag at me for being organised and consistent. Now it’s normal, and more people do it I feel bad for letting it get to me. Thank you for your videos.

[@kay093100]

I wish I can be in bed by 8pm.

[@Alicia-ci3mq]

I watched your video this morning,and I can say you give me motivation to start my day positively.thankyou Sophie love watching your vlogs❤

[@rav_666_]

Loved hearing how makeup makes you feel in the gym. I always feel kinda weird wearing makeup to the gym but it helps me with confidence and to perform better so it was nice hearing you talk about it 😊

[@ElaineKempf]

There’s makeup that’s good for your skin too, I wear makeup too lol

[@karabradbury6731]

I really needed this video! I’m struggling with getting my school work done and you help me feel so motivated! Love u!! ❤️

[@GAINSBYBRAINS]

love you!! good luck with your school work❤️ and look into sleep chronotypes☺️ Not everyone is made to get up early, so work with your body instead of against it to feel most aligned!🥰

[@milliedowney9759]

Oh thank you!!! These are my favorite videos!💛💛💛Love you Sophie!!💛

[@livdon4197]

I've been having insomnia and I'm not falling asleep sometimes until 5am! which is crazy because I could literally be getting up for the day at that time. It makes me so nervous. But I'm trying to fix my schedule and I recently came across your videos. It gives me inspiration.. thank you :)

[@tammystiletto]

I’ve been doing the same. The best thing you can do is try to have a good morning routine regardless of how late you’re waking up. Like do three things to feel ready for the day. Slowly you might start to reset. I’m not even going to suggest a good bedtime routine, we insomniacs already know bedtime is hell. You take care of yourself in the morning and get enough nutrients and b12 during the day and your sleep will start to even out again.

[@debbiesjourney]

Your vlogs are so fun. You're really high vibe, I love watching you!

[@valli_chenae]

So motivating! I’m trying to get up earlier, but it is so hard! And I agree that doing skincare first thing really helps with waking up and getting the day started :)

[@lamngocdang]

I think this is a valuable message for anyone who is trying to adopt a new habit. It is important to be realistic about the challenges you will face, but it is also important to remember why you are making the change. If you have a clear goal in mind, it will be easier to stay motivated when things get tough.
