Hi Kylie, will you turn this series into a playlist on your channel? Would love to easily reference it in the future, great ideas❣

This is a little pathetic but the way you talk with compassion and understanding about food always makes me feel a little emotional and sometimes tear up. I have a really toxic relationship with food that I only keep to myself. I'm always happy to see whenever you that uploaded a new video, it feels like a gentle hug for just general kindness to life more than just a recipe video.

I love that you added that line about being tired, it really makes me feel better about my own tiredness sometimes ❤❤

[phoebelyn.]

I love how you’re completely honest about how you don’t always make it look pretty and it’s not about it looking good it’s about nourishing your body!

[Enrico_Fusai_Counselor]

Your videos have a level of positive emotional impact you can’t even imagine. Thanks for what you do 💙

[swedmerson]

I love that you emphasize "your energy level" because there are times where I literally don't feel like it and it isn't because Im lazy I just don't have the energy.

[maia-roll]

Ooh I definitely want to try this out!

I’m so happy to be on the good side on YouTube for food content and eating tips. I’ve been struggling with restrictive/binge cycle since childhood and I’ve recently moved out alone so it’s a little hard to adjust to the “adult” life. I often lack the energy necessary to make myself a good and nutritious meal and will just starve for the whole day before binging so those videos are kinda lifesaver. Thank you so much ❤

Oh it's my go to menu in college. It's super easy and I don't have to think much cuz all I need is to saute the onion n chili then add any vegetables or protein and spices. Sometimes I add oyster sauce and that's all. Super easy and super healthy yet super tasty!

[hortensejones]

I really appreciate you you’re real, you post the recipes….I’m so disillusioned with someone else on here…shouldn’t let it bum me out but for now it does you’re a breath of fresh air Hope you feel, as well as you look! Deepest gratitude!

[Harmoney.]

[donyelledimples]

Yk I knew it was a great idea to follow you and you just remind me every time you post 😌

[nathaliej]

Omg I do this too! Except w rice because that Hawaii upbringing is strong. I also just use refried beans straight from the can and stick it in the microwave with leftover rice and cheese. Then top with whatever’s around !

[nikkifangaiuiha]
