“I was the problem, but I was also the solution”
this right here hit hard for me, because it’s so true and I am only beginning to understand that. I plan on becoming better as I move into 2023 and I hope I can at least make one change for myself next year, thank you for the motivation and tips ❤️

I really am at the lowest of my life, lost my hair, got obese, ruined my friendships and completely isolated myself, I barely get out of the house. I think YouTube sensed that and started recommending videos like this and I'll forever be greateful, to YouTube and to the amazing content creators like you, Rebecca. This is day 4 of my personal glow up diary.
To be completely honest, I am lost, I don't know what to do and where to start but I am planning to sort my thoughts out. I juat bought some fruits and vegetables to start incorporating them into my diet, I started drinking more water and sleeping well. So far it is going well, but I know I will lose motivation at some point, wish me luck guys.
I hope you all get where you want to be in life.

I have only started to dislike who I have started becoming. I am dedicating next year to new goals, discipline, and growth.

My mom passed away last month and a lot of things hurt. Being happy hurt and self-development felt like a crime to do because it felt like moving on from her too soon, but I know she wouldn't want me to be sad. She always told me to 'move forward' no matter what. I want to live a fulfilling life so she can be proud of me and so I can tell her so many stories when I see her again.

My first day of starting this journey after suffering from depression for 7 years...hope i get into life next year

I'm 17 in these past few months I had breakdown several times, and became too sensitive and crying almost daily. But I'm trying to heal focusing on my self protecting myself, helping my bf too, taking care of toxic fam. In our country we can't move so early u k. But best luck to everyone, giving warm hug to u I love you and all ❤we all can do it, just a change we have to bring and I promise you will love it

I’m currently at the lowest point at my life and this makes me feel not so alone a motivated. Thank you this means a lot!

[khadijamohamedalashmawy]

I'm literally so emotional because I can't actually comprehend that someone was once going through the EXACT same feelings that I'm going through and actually became better because I always feel like there is no way out of what I'm going through right now and have been for a very long time but you proved to me that there is still hope and that the change will only come from me and no one else ... I truly love you

[farheenahmed]

I am dedicating this year to me. I am going to start small and be fully consistent. Thank you so much for this video. This guilt that I feel for no reason whatsoever needs to be identified and released.

[marccolomayt]

Rebecca's life changing stories = 💯😍❤❤

[todoxx]

i’m at the lowest point of my life right now, i can’t thank you enough for this video. you are amazing.

[iteite]

i ended up crying with this haha i'm on this journey, but i'm far behind. i finally let go of someone very toxic in my life and the change has been amazing, but i still need to work on so many things to improve myself. i am excited for what's going to come, and all i want is to be able to say that i'm genuinely happy and comfortable with who i am. thank you so much for always making these inspirational videos! it's been a bit of a rough month so far and i always feel like giving up (since being sad and just staying there is way comfier than fighting to get better), but this encouraged me so much to keep going and do better! i can't wait for what's next to come with you <3

p.s.: you said you battled with phone addiction, could you some day talk about that and give some tips? i feel that'd be so helpful for many of us <3

I feel like I'm going through the worst phase of my life right now where I have gone from having everything to nothing in the blink of an eye but whenever I watch you I just feel so motivated and get this feeling that I'll make through all of this and that these times are gonna end only if I make them. All thanks to

[ninanegedu]

Just started watching this and seeing your dedication to your journey is truly uplifting ❤

[cathyhere]

Watching this I low key started to reflect on everything I’m struggling with and figured I’m just super overwhelmed with how much time (ahead of me) I have on my hands. I just need baby steps 😌

I wouldn’t have realised that without this video so thank you!! Your videos are always enjoyable to watch and super relatable❤

[melodiclove]

I’ve been struggling with my mental health for a long time, and this made me feel so much better, thank you<3

At this time last year, I was unemployed, had gained 20+ pounds and was at the heaviest I'd been in my life, my social anxiety was getting bad, and I had no idea what my next move in life was. In September of last year, I got re-hired back with the same company I'd walked away from just 4 months earlier - that was certainly not in my initial plans, in fact I'd planned on never going back, but you know, circumstances - however, I was lucky enough to be given a position in another department, which solved all my previous problems. It turned out I liked that job and felt happy there, so that's when I decided it was time to pick myself back up, become the best version of myself I could, and just be happy with life. I started dieting, exercising daily, positivity journaling daily, and pushing myself to talk to people more.

Today, about ten months later, I am 36 pounds down and less than 2 pounds away from my goal weight when I started my weight loss journey, I am still happy and comfortable in my position at work, my confidence has grown amazingly, I look in the mirror and think to myself, "I think I'm kinda cute!" instead of "Eww!" like I used to, I talk more and conversation comes a lot easier to me nowadays, and I've joined the dating scene.

I'm not done yet, though. I want everyone who is beginning or on a self improvement journey to know that there's no time limit or time stamp. It doesn't matter how long it takes for you to feel like you've turned your life around or 'achieved your goal.' As long as you're working on yourself and making yourself proud every day, that's all that matters! I also really recommend doing daily positivity journaling. I've noticed that when I keep up with it every day, my mood and mentality are a lot more positive than if I skip on it for a week or two. It can be whatever you want to write down as long as it's positive. I write down 3 positive things about the day, 3 positive things about myself, and any notes on things I did good or what I could've done better (I journal right before bed). I hope this helps or inspires someone!

This is the stage of my life im in too. I swear you took my same experiences and put it into words just like your experiences. I'm proud of us for picking ourselves up and moving forward with ourselves. I wish you well, health, and growth ahead friend ✨️
