THE TRUTH ABOUT MY BINGE EATING | HOW I REALLY STOPPED & AN APOLOGY

[@jermhuss21]

i find myself binging the most when I have low self esteem or am bored. thank you for the video!

[@hollyrichardson6377]

same!!

[@varvaraevgeniou891]

Does anyone else just appreciate how transparent Holly is with her viewers? Thank you, Holly. ❤️ There are so many youtubers who tend to sweep things under the rug when they get "hate", but you had the strength to come back and explain, which I think everyone really respects. You're genuinely the best.

[@HollyGabrielle]

this is so so kind, thank you! 💚 i try my best, because that's all i really can do!

[@-kittiilovesu]

As someone that binged for two years, this is so relatable... There was literally nothing on my mind except eating, food, body shape. The way I worked it out is staying with my family (though it's annoying sometimes we already know) But the force is to eat at the same time in front of the table three times a day. And that, just eating regularly kicks me out of the trap.

[@HollyGabrielle]

i'm so glad you were able to relate to this! and that is such a useful tip, thank you for sharing! 💚

[@SamElle]

im still on my ED recovery journey and this is SO SO relatable!! thanks for being so vulnerable holly

[@Coolkat777]

Just binged on cookies right before seeing this 😢 It helps to see that you overcame this! I am so sorry that you went through this, and I am so proud of you for overcoming this!

[@sophieirwin3497]

I’m terrible for not eating breakfast, and when I’d get to work I’d be ravenous by 11. Then I’d eat my lunch then and have to get a second lunch later on. And I was getting dizzy spells as my sugar levels were just all over the place. I now pre prepare a bagel to eat walking to the bus in the morning and it helps so much to eat more and more regularly throughout the day

[@HollyGabrielle]

ah i am so glad you've started to eat more in the mornings sophie and, most importantly, that it is helping you!

[@kevincorcoran7632]

Your willingness to open up and bare your soul, even when admitting you were wrong, and addressing negative issues in your life is TRULY AMAZING Holly and you need to be applauded for it! 👏👏👏👏👏 The fact that you choose to be so selfless, instead of selfish is a TRUE GIFT to your viewers who no longer feel that they are going through things alone and who are totally inspired by you! Many of your KZbin "family" have said that you are destined for Greatness... on the other hand, and based on MANY years of life experience and working as a college/university professor, I can confidently say that you, Holly, have already entered the "Greatness Spectrum" and will forever keep soaring!

[@annamckie5295]

I’m so proud of you Holly!! I’ve followed you for several years and I’m really pleased to see you becoming healthier and living a more balanced life

[@HollyGabrielle]

thank you anna 💚💚

[@chloetunnell6767]

Really appreciate your honesty surrounding your previous video, i remember watching it and leaving a comment in the hope to see you grow and it’s nice to see you take the next step in your mental and physical health journey❤️ For a video, it would be really interesting to hear how/if your opinion on therapy has changed? You don’t mention it in this video so it would be useful to hear if your mentality on therapy has shifted from 18 year old Holly! Xx

[@HollyGabrielle]

thank you chloe, this really means a lot to me! and yes of course, i can definitely talk more about this! 💚

[@shailikakanojia3774]

A whole how holly eats now!! We need a refreshed what holly eats in a day

[@HollyGabrielle]

YASSSSSSS 😉 i have not posted these videos in a while just because i used to get so much judgement and 'hate' when i posted them. so so many people would criticise the way i ate, but knowing now that i am so much happier is really all that matters. i will definitely be bringing these videos back soon 🙌🏻

[@shailikakanojia3774]

@@HollyGabrielle REALLY looking forward to them. The ‘haters’ gonna hate no matter what you post, we love you Holly. You’ve grown so much. Do what makes you feel the best.

[@davidthescottishvegan]

@@shailikakanojia3774 Unfortunately you are right that those who make hate comments are going to make them no matter what. Many of the haters are probably anti vegans because you find many vegan channels have their videos disliked and have been trolled by anti vegans. Hate is just a part of being in a non vegan world that we have to put up with.

[@SophieHarrison69]

@@HollyGabrielle I would love to see this now you are in a better place! I think some people will just hate regardless sadly - at the same time, I do think it’s possible that some people before came from a place of concern, with you yourself acknowledging now you needed more fats/proteins to feel satiated and fuel your body (I speak as a vegan who struggled with this balance for a while, but now see chocolate as one of my “six a day” 😂

[@The1WinningTeam]

Holly, I have followed you for years and our lives are extremely different in soo many ways but I have to say you have grown and matured into such a great woman, your authenticity and sense of accountability is something to be proud of, despite all your fears and anxieties you show so much courage from flying across the world on your own, to your transparency with your life struggles. Thank you for being real, my heart is so full watching your videos these days seeing how far you have come! Keep being you!

[@tanjaklauser184]

Oh my gosh Holly, you literally described what I go through right know! Because of your video I reflected my eating habits. I don't eat very much throughout the day but really much in the evening. I never knew, why this is like that but now I know exactly! Thank you, Holly! ❤️❤️❤️

[@katiesavard5640]

I'm so glad you revisited this video! I watched the original and felt uncomfortable with how off-tune it was, and you're showing so much maturity and growth by giving a new perspective. These types of videos can be so helpful to people going through similar things, but it's always tough to make sure you're not perpetuating unhealthy viewpoints. You did such a great job this time

[@HollyGabrielle]

this makes me so happy to read, thank you katie! 😌 and yes, i have grown so much in such a short space of time! i am very glad i've taken the time to work on myself 💚

[@Hannah-ur3pt]

Pandemic combined with academic stress definitely made my binges a significant problem

[@KatieMartins]

Thank you for sharing this Holly, I had suffered for as long as I can remember and there is no shame in an illness, I wish more people would speak out about change. I read an article about a Harley Street Hypnotherapist that had helped several chronic cases. It worked for me in 6 weeks, there is hope and solutions out there for everyone. The cycle can be broken if approached correctly.

[@evexx9313]

I've watched you since your Cambridge move-in vlog - I started uni the same week haha! I am one of the people who left a critical comment on your last video and I really battled on whether to do so because I knew it could just be perceived as 'hate' when I have watched your videos for so long it just would never be intended that way and it came from a genuine place of concern for you but also others who may be watching the video. Thank-you for addressing it and hope you continue to see improvements in your health! x

[@faithrose3194]

This is so helpful Holly! Like I feel so relatable and I have gained a lot of info!! Thank you so much!! :)

[@ellaroberts2336]

I am so glad you refilled this video as I feel it is such an important topic and is something that is not spoke about enough. I am also so happy that you listened to feedback took it down and have redolent with the advice given. Thank you 😊 💕

[@sage.eclipse]

i always hear people talking about how eating more & stopping to restrict yourself will help stop binges but i never listened but this video feels so genuine and personal i’m trying to up my intake & stop trying to restrict so much. thank you for literally being the only person that’s helped me understand

[@SilaTheChosenOne]

when they said it more i was just like anways bye 💀 cuz got at first anorexia habits but i am at recovering from this whole "bulimia" kind of thing.

[@yuhesdance1380]

holy this video is so helpful to me before I had watch so many video about that habit they all said I need to slow down or try not to do too much work but actually eat more is the most important thing I need. Thank u!

[@kayleehenderson9059]

i was so happy to see this video!! i too was a bit disappointed in how you handled this topic the first time around and wondered if you would ever address it. seeing you own up to your mistake is very moving and i feel like you’re setting a great example for your viewers and other content creators. i feel this is something very vulnerable to do, especially having taken the step to share this video the first time, receive criticism of how you handled it, take it down, and readdress it after listening, learning, and admitting your mistakes. i think we as content consumers also need to remember just what you said at 03:00-everyone is human and will make mistakes, even those that we look up to online. i think how we respond to your mistakes is equally as important. i am glad that you were able to glean some insight from the comments on the first video. sending love and wishing you the best as you continue to heal 💚✨

So refreshing to hear that we all make mistakes and we are only human! The interesting thing is every single person is different. When I feel sad and stressed, I can’t eat anything (but that’s just me).

[@Rugile_O]

I was told by my therapist that it's all about safety, in a sense safety, like do you trust what you do after you eat, do you feel safe about your decisions besides eating. What do you think about after eating? Do you have a focus, a meaning in life? She noted, that if a persons existence is based solely on "brain activity" like studying, memorising and a person feels like they don't need anything else besides their memory to work and survive, then they will never balance their food. It's kind of like: think logically about your food, design a plate, eat and go do what drives you. It makes sense for me, hope it helps to you as well:)

Great video Holly and thanks for sharing this information. It was good to apologise it shows that you're humble and that you realised that you made a mistake. Don't let hate comments get to you because sadly many are anti vegans that are critical of veganism.
