What I Did to Lose 60 Pounds in 5 Months

0:00 I'mma show y'all how I went from this to this. Okay. Hey babes, what's going on? What's the word? What's the T? What's the vase? Okay, so I posted a video on my YouTube of like me working out and losing weight within only 5 months, right? And people want to know like, girl, what did you do? How you do it? And like, even if you

0:46 don't want to know, I'm still going to tell you. I don't care. So, let's get straight into it. First of all, subscribe to your girl channel. Show your girl some love cuz I'm at 1,00 what? 1,60 subscribers and I'm trying to be at 1 million one day. Okay, 1 million. But look, let's get into it. So, I'm always gaining weight, losing weight, gaining weight, losing weight. I say this in all my videos because some people click on my video for the first time, so I want them to know this, but I'm always doing this to myself. I know it's so bad, but look, I had gained weight. I move out here to Charlotte and I'm still in Charlotte, but I gained weight so fast and I was like, "Nah, nah, I can't I can't go back to gaining weight and falling off. I can't do that." So, boom. Got in a gym, was consistent for like

1:34 five months straight. First thing I do when I wake up in the morning, put my clothes on, brush my teeth, get ready for the gym, go straight to the gym. Ain't no sliding on my phone on on on social media. Ain't no procrastinating, laying there thinking like, "hm, should I go to the gym today?" Ain't none of that. No, no, no, no, no, no. Cuz when you first wake up, you going to just just just just get up. Don't think. When you think too much, you going to start feeling like you don't want to do it. Then time go by and then all of a sudden you going to do it for the day. You don't work out and that's that. No, we're not doing that. Once you wake up in the morning, put your clothes on, brush your teeth, take your shower, whatever you have to do, go straight to the gym. Okay? Now, you realize I didn't say go get breakfast or go eat a snack first. All right, you noticed that,

2:20 right? Okay, so for me, some people hate when I say this, but for me, I do not wake up and eat first and then go to the gym. Why? Because I'm trying to fight the actual fat off my body, okay? I'm trying to fight the actual fat off my body. Now, if I eat something and then I go to the gym, I'm going to be burning the calories I just ate. And I'm not trying to do that. I'm trying to burn the actual fat. So that's the reason why I don't eat for breakfast. Number two, you have to change your diet. Like that's something we all don't want to do. You don't want to give up the good food and stuff like that, but certain things I'll say just give it up. You'll be back. You know what I'm saying? And even if you want to like eat it like let's say like, okay, let's say you want to eat pizza. You love pizza. Eat your

3:06 pizza once every two weeks or something like that. But don't be eating out every day. Make your own food. You have to change your diet. And trust me, I know it sounds so easy and simple, but I love I'm a greedy ass girl. Y'all see me. Y'all see my pictures. I don't ever got to sit here and front for the camera. I'm going tell y'all the real deal. Y'all see me. All the pictures I be gaining weight, losing, gaining weight, losing. I'm a greedy girl. I love food. But stay away from the unnecessary food, the unnecessary outside, the Chinese food, the boxes of pizza, the candy, the chips, all of that extra stuff. Just just chill out on that. Chill out. Make your food at home. Make your food at home. Number three,

3:53 focus on your calories. High protein, low carbs diet. So, what I did is I focused on eggs. Um, meat. Pause. I'm from New York. I have to say that. But, um, you could eat chicken. You could eat I'm not I don't eat red meat, but um you could eat chicken. You could eat turkey. You could eat high proteins. Focus on eating avocado, vegetables on the side. Like that's what's going to help you. Stay away from the bread, the rice, the pasta. H stay away from that. I wasn't doing that. I didn't care to do that. When you want to fight that weight off, when you care to look good, when you care to get your old body back, when you care to see your face, your smile, your eyes, like I said, I ain't gonna act brand new. Y'all see my pictures. I post

4:40 it. I keep it real with y'all. When I gain weight, you can't see my beauty like that. I mean, I still look pretty, but you can't see like my face looking bloated. Like, it is disgusting. I be hating myself when I see myself just just like that. Like, ew. Like, I just feel so disgusted. focus. Be like, "Listen, tell yourself, look, I can't eat this sandwich. I can't eat this burger. Like, this I I can't do that." No, no, no, no. Make your own food at home. Cuz you know what you're putting in your own food. When you eating outside food, you don't know what they put in. You don't know the extra oil, the calories. And speaking of calories, that's my next thing I'm going to bring up. when I'm on my weight loss journey and still even

5:25 after weight loss journey count your calories. Your calories is your calories is very important. I count my calories. Okay? Trust me. I'll be sitting there if I have a slice of pizza now cuz now I can eat a slice of pizza. I can afford that. But if I like eat a slice of pizza now, I'll put that pizza on top of my food scale and just try to like mark it down and see how much it is, how many grams, and um and they'll tell me how many calories, 200 calories, 300 calories. like I'll do that. So, I would say if you want to do that, try it out. A food scale is not expensive, y'all. Go cop that. Don't don't don't be like that. Go get your food scale. Go try it out. My next thing, when you go to the gym, lift weights. When I go to the gym, I lift weights five days a week. After I lift my waist in the gym, I walk on the

6:12 treadmill. Listen to me closely. I walk on the treadmill. And when you're walking on the treadmill, you don't have to run. I used I used to think you had to run. You had to go jogging and lose that burn that fat. You don't got to do that. It's crazy cuz I used to think that. You have to do that. Walk on the treadmill. When you walk on a treadmill, walk on incline. Put your It's going to hurt. It's going to hurt. I'm telling you. I know it's going to hurt. Trust me. But push yourself. Cuz I had heavy weight on. I had to push myself on an incline. Incline. You're walking on You're walking on a hill. So it it hurts. Yes, I understand. But just push yourself. Push yourself. Push yourself. If you have to take a break, take a break. But continue. Push yourself. Another thing, I don't know, number five at this point. I don't know where I'm at, but another

6:58 thing, 10K steps a day. I walk 10K steps a day or even more. I work at a call center right now, right? Which I really hate. I'm begging and praying to God, please help me get a new job cuz I don't like Anyways, that's a whole another story. Story time. One day I'm I'mma tell whatever. Anyways, look, you have like a 15-minute break. You could go to the bathroom. Like, you just get up and go, right? So, what I do is I'll get up and I'll go walk in the hallway for like 5 minutes real quick. Try to get my steps in. My 15-minute breaks, I'll go outside and walk around the building. If you have a break, go take a walk. If you going to the bathroom, take go take a walk. take the stairs, walk up and down the stairs. There's times where my day about to end and I'm at work at night

7:44 and I'm like, "Oh, hell no. I got to I got to get my steps in." I will literally walk up and down the stairs back to back, back to back. I'm talking about I would get hot in the staircase, but I don't care cuz I was like, "No, no, no. I need my I need my steps in. I need my steps in." Don't let these jobs make you feel like you cannot put yourself first. I'm telling you, I've been there before. That's one of the reason why I gained so much weight. I had gained over over 100 pounds at one time. And I had put that on my YouTube as well for those who's new to my channel. I I was blaming that I didn't have time for myself no more. I had two or three jobs trying to pay bills. I was stressed out. That's how I gain over 100 pounds. I no longer knew how to work out. I was I was done. Like you couldn't even recognize my face. If I'mma post it right here, but I was done. Try to put some time into you. Even if you're at

8:29 work, okay? And at the call center. When I started work at the call center, I was picking up weight fast as well because I was just eating all day, snacking all day. You know what I'm saying? When my co-workers, we just snacking and eating. I was snacking. I was eating a lot of cookies. Like, I was I love cookies, but I was getting comfortable and I had to stop myself. Like, yo, I'm getting so much weight. I'm sitting here all day at the call center at the desk and I'm like, I got to stop doing that. Make sure you're eating in an 8 hour window. That's what Well, let me just say this. That's what I was doing. I was eating in an 8 hour window. Now I changed it up. Um but yeah,
