Her Weight-Loss Video Went Viral On TikTok. Here's What She Learned.
Last November, fitness trainer Lucy Bergin started recording her weight-loss journey, taking a daily image of herself in the same outfit to inspire herself. After losing 35 pounds over six months, she posted the video to TikTok, where it racked up 12 million views. Joining the 3rd Hour of TODAY from Tampa, she says, “I just kept telling myself that it wasn’t a short-term goal.”

Food, fruits, exercise, all these things help in weight loss or not, but after using this medicine, my weight has reduced from 90 kg to 70 kg and I feel very good.
My best friend doesn't want to lose weight with me. She says she wants to, but she never commits, and for many years I've stayed lazy with her because of the fear of losing her friendship. Recently I realized that if she loves me, she'll support me. I don't need her to change too, but I can't allow myself to self sabotage on her behalf anymore. I'm almost 3 weeks into my self love journey, and hope I keep going this time.

Way to go! Taking control of your health and losing a little weight and not overly doing it. I think your weight will maintain because you took it off slowly and not too fast.

@Healing Angel very true! My youngest daughter is 14 and just finished her freshman year of high school! There’s been a couple people who have called her “fat” just to be cruel and to offend her or hurt her feelings which my daughter is not even close to being fat or overweight by any means! She weighs about 130lbs and there’s nothing at all wrong with that! She’s a healthy weight and size! She is absolutely beautiful! A gorgeous girl! (I wish I could post a photo!) but those cruel words people have said have gotten into her head and truly made her believe she is “too big” or that she’s “fat” and it breaks my heart that she doesn’t see what I see or what other (good) people see! I’m not only saying it because she’s my daughter….I’m saying it because it’s the truth…she truly is a very beautiful girl! But she doesn’t see it! Because those words have cut her like a knife and made her see ugliness in herself. Those bullies need to learn what their words cause! I pray all the time for a kinder world …
She’s such inspirational. Almost got me in tear.😢

This young lady is very wise and it's true. Losing weight WILL feel like a grind. The trick is to stay with it, don't stop for the rest of your life. This is a lifestyle decision, otherwise you'll put the weight back on.
I’m 73 and lost my extra weight fast without exercising only because I realized I was insulin resistant and so started eating within a four hour window, low carb foods and no white sugar desserts. The weight dropped off and I feel more clear headed. I feel sorry for people who get insulin shots and get fatter and fatter storing the insulin.

I just try to wait until noon and stop eating after four. I also walk about four miles a day four days a week too which helps my brain and weight.

I am new to the stock market. Every stock that I bought so far, I was out of luck because I bought them when they were expensive. I feel I missed out on all the stock opportunities so far for the tech stocks.I believe having 175K yearly income would be a good investment so I want to plug all my savings into the stock market. I know this sounds a bit dull but I would like to know if I should learn investing or let somebody else (more capable like a FA) do it for me? Please share your thoughts. I am kind of tired of searching for a good stock to buy and losing all the good opportunities..

Welldone I am going through this path and gave up on my personal training but back on this year and long term weightloss no quick fixes
I lost 27 lbs on my own with no best friend. Sometimes your best friend may not want to do this challenge with you & prefer to keep on eating the wrong foods. Remember though it's very easy to gain that weight back as you get older since older women's metabolism begins to slow down or go on a medication that sometimes makes you gain weight so you have to be consistent with it for the rest of your life. This is never a one time thing. I gave up high carbs, fried food & sugar with my weight loss. Didn't do it to look good but did it to feel good & prevent health diseases like heart disease which is the number one killer for women & type 2 diabetes from being overweight plus others out there that contribute to weight gain.
How awesome!! Good for her!

I did the same thing. I was eating under 1000 calories a day and lost 60 pounds. It’s not sustainable for a long period of time. I lasted about a year and a half. I hit a plateau at around 175 pounds but still had belly fat. I’ve gained 25 pounds back because I increased my calorie intake but still stayed away from bad foods. I’m stuck and don’t know what to do because I’m not going back to starving myself and also exercising either doing cardio or lifting weights. I’m looking into HIIT and a meal plan from my friend who’s a Marine Raider. Starving yourself and running for hours a week isn’t healthy or sustainable. I’m more depressed doing that than being overweight.

@@petrockmom8792 Understanding when there is a need to eat less should not lead to an eating disorder. Eating disorders are the perfect storm of ignorance, impatience and often pre-existing mental instability. Systemically assessing your maintenance calories, preparing healthy meals at home with quality ingredients and steadily reducing calories to a small, sustainable deficit is the epitome of ordered eating and the key to progressive fat loss. I agree with the sentiment that people "should eat what they need to, when they need to" but more often then not this is actually people "eating what they want to, when they want to". Very few Americans have any sort of clue what their caloric needs are or what the calorie/nutrient content of foods are. Also, unpopular opinion, but overeating is disordered eating as well, especially when it results in obesity.
