I'm sorry for being triggered in the comments but um... please don't assume you know EVERYTHING that's going on. I choose to share specific details and I choose to quiet down on things that aren't necessarily everyone's business either. For those who are being kind, THANK YOU SO MUCH. FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART, I FUCKING APPRECIATE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK. I owe you my loyalty. xxx

Do NOT allow people to give you hate for this. I am on it too. Some people need extra help and that’s okay. It’s refreshing to see someone be more honest.

you got this fei, I love how transparent and open you are with us. Dont let negative people think they know what's best for you, cheering for you always.

I currently work at an endocrinology clinic that regularly sees patients for weight loss and prescribes injectable medications for weight loss like Ozempic(semaglutide), Wegovy, Zepbound, etc, and I'm being so serious when I say that using these medications is ABSOLUTELY not "cheating" like some may think. Everyone's experience with weight loss/gain is different, and some people really just need the extra help (hell, some people have difficulty losing any weight even ON the medication). In my experience, those who do end up starting it are often those who have tried exercise/diet for months if not years, oral alternatives like Phentermine/Rybelsus, with little to no results. And even once you're on the medication, you still need to supplement it with proper diet/exercise for consistent, continuous results. One thing about semaglutide is that as far as I can remember, there are no approved generic versions to the brand name ones (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus), and compounded generic semaglutide Fei appears to be using (correct me if I'm wrong, I only noticed because the FDA approved injectable brand name versions all come in pen form) that some clinics offer may not be safe and have been reported to be have adverse side effects/events, especially in the long run. The endocrinologist who works at my clinic and many endos/obesity specialists refuse to prescribe compounded semaglutide for that reason (though Wegovy, the only one alternative that is approved by the FDA for weight loss, tends to have a lot of restrictions/requirements from insurance companies that must be met before they cover it, and without insurance coverage it can average to $1k+ a month, which is insane). Either way, I'm sure it's something you've discussed extensively with your doctor already, but definitely something to keep in mind. Wishing you the best on your weight loss journey Fei!

The content you create just feels so real which is rlly hard to find now. I love that u can make a safe space for everyone here, and esp for those that feel comfort watching ur relatable vids

I'm a nurse that works in a wellness clinic where one of our specialties is weight management. I don't think people should feel guilty needing to turn to medication to help lose weight. I can't even imagine the mental torment you feel when you feel like you're doing everything right, and then you end up gaining a significant amount weight. I personally have friends that are going through that, and I feel for them. Gaining weight is such an uncomfortable feeling and it's even worse when other people start to notice it, as well. I'm really happy you're doing what's best for you!

Get you a partner that's so supportive they'll even help you with injections lolol

Wishing you the best! When you mentioned how nice it was not to be thinking constantly about when your next meal was/how hungry you are, I felt that; I've had a health issue for ages now that affected how well I absorbed nutrients, so I could eat until I was so overfull and still feel dizzy and hungry like I needed a meal. Since I've been able to treat that problem it's been like a whole new world of 'wow, people live like this? this is what I've been missing out on?' so even though not exactly the same as your situation, that relief really came across to me and I'm glad you're found something that's helping. Also that egg lunch looked super good!

Fei, do NOT let anyone make you feel guilty or ashamed for taking care of yourself!! People act like losing weight has a one-size-fits-all solution when that's simply not true. Just like you, I have struggled with my weight being up and down my whole life, struggled with endless diets and fitness plans, fought with a body that seems to have no idea when to tell me to stop eating, and had constant thoughts about food. Starting GLP1s last year saved my life, and that's not something to be ashamed of. I've lost almost 100 pounds since the start of last year, and I can't even begin to tell you how much happier, healthier, and more "me" I finally feel. For the first time in years, I'm not in constant pain, I'm not always tired, I'm not always thinking about food, etc. You are not alone in this, Fei, you have people who are right here to support you. I'm so proud of you for being real and taking care of you ❤️

Listen, im someone who has not struggled in the same ways HOWEVER, I listen when people speak and one of the main things i got educated on was that it helps quiet down food thoughts. Food thoughts aren't something you can just "work on" so I support whatever works for you

Proud of you for speaking about it. Im actually really invested in these types of vlogs and would appreciate if you did more! Love you,Fei

FEI we love you so much. We support you through the ups and the downs. You’re such a beautiful kind soul thank you for being you and sharing it

It's your life, you don't owe others anything. Been following you for years and at the end of the day you're still the Fei that cracks me up and makes me smile. Glad to see you are striving and doing well. Don't let any of the comments bother you in the slightest. This goes for everyone, please do what feels right for you as long as you're not hurting others!

I just started mounjaro (im in the uk so we don't have zepbound) end of February 24 and after failing for 7 years in a row to shift my weight (and keep it off) it actually makes me feel like there's a light at the end of the tunnel and that I might actually reach it this time. I have 100lbs to lose (75lbs now) and its felt so effortless staying on track. I know there's this view that if fat people aren't suffering to lose weight they are cheating- but honestly f*ck that. my health isn't a competition, and I don't owe any one the 'moral' high ground. I know this is only half the battle, but maintenance calories are a whole different ball game to deficit calories- and I will need to be in a deficit for a year minimum. These drugs are life savers.

omg the comments about your appetite and finally not feeling hungry are so relatable. I have a lot of friends who take in way less calories compared to me and just eat less in general and I've always felt like I stand out when I finish an entire meal around them, so feeling satiated with a normal amount of food is so exciting. I recently started taking a supplement that curbs my hunger and I had never felt like this before

im so proud of you girlie!! I'm on wegovy and I've lost 20 pounds in a month! it can be scary, especially as someone with a very big phobia of needles. i personally dont do it on my stomah because its scary but i do it on my thigh instead! edit: i can understand your fear, but it helps if you look away and maybe grip onto something

Girl i get you with not feeling hungry all the time feeling SO GOOD. I've been experimenting with keto/low carb because i also noticed that it keeps me full for hours and i stg i almost cried at times realizing i'm not hungry 2h after eating a good big meal or craving sweets all the time but just being content and satiated. You finally feel normal

Your okay fei I’ve watched you for soooo long and as someone who works in a pharmacy I see a lot of people struggle to get these kind of medications because it can be so liberating finally getting off that weight and not feeling ashamed and it is such a hard thing to do especially since you have to give your self a shot you’re doing great ❤

It's been sad to see in your videos how you felt about yourself. I appreciate you sharing, and I hope this helps you feel the love for yourself that you deserve to feel!

good luck Fei!!

i just feel happy that you have found something to help you. i understand that weight loss is so difficult and can be influenced by so many health problems etc. and mental health as well. just do you! i am glad you are being open and honest about it all 😊

Gurrrrrl I have followed you for years. I feel like I have been there with you through all your struggles and F the people that will put you down. You do what you got to and if this helps, do it! And good on you for putting it on YT for people to see the reality of your life and this new journey.

Your my muse Fei,I genuinely mean that,I used to hate my body before finding your channel,you helped me love myself bit by bit everyday,it isn’t easy but your a reminder that being mid sized is just as beautiful as any other body type ❤ your so beautiful and amazing,keep being you queen ❤

My brother did semaglutide and lost 50 lbs and has never been happier (it does break down muscle mass too though) and my boyfriend did it for 6 months and didn't lose a single pound. Make sure you still work out on this stuff! Good luck! Been watching you for yeaaarrss ❤

Proud of you Fei! Never apologize for something that makes YOU HAPPY!!! You have my back Fei ❤

I AM SO PROUD OF YOU FOR PRIORITIZING YOUR HEALTH

You do you girl. Even when on meds, still gotta watch out for diet and exercise so it is not exactly a free ticket. Can't wait to see how you progress!

You don’t understand how REFRESHING this was to see for me. I hope we both reach our weight goals and be able to maintain them. Much love 💕

Please do another episode 💚💚💚 these transparent looks at weight loss are so refreshing

Girl, after watching you for so long I’m so proud of you for doing this for yourself!!!! It’s so important to do it for yourself!!! I wish you the best on your journey!!! Can’t wait to see how you progress ❤ sending love!!

I am incredibly proud of you. I have watched you for years since your Kpop videos and I have seen so much growth. Thank you so much for posting such relatable content because I feel seen. I watch your videos whenever I just need something authentic, which is refreshing. I am so serious when I say you are one of my favorite KZfaqrs ever.

I’m going through perimenopause and no matter how much I exercise and ate right the weight went no where. So I am doing the semaglutide shots and it has been the only way I’ve been losing weight. Keep it up and don’t let anyone shame you…forever fan

You got this girl! Can't wait to see your journey :) I just started Ozempic 3 months ago and I totally get everything you were saying. Let's kill it in our rebranding era!!

hii, I've been a quiet subscriber for so long but i do feel the need to jump in here and tell you you are so brave for putting yourself out there and starting this journey. to be honest, semaglutide scares the sht out of me lol ive always been overweight, legit since my childhood and i have PCOS, but medical assitance with that sort of stuff is very hard to come by in my country. im wishing you the best! also, im glad your bf is so supportive!

I lost 100 pounds so almost half of my body weighr naturally but not in a healthy way and I've gained a lot of it back as I'm very pregant right now. And let me tell you what would rather get help and medication to help me loose the weight after baby is here than go back to the crazy calorie restriction (max 800kcal and im 5'8) I stuck to for year last time. Loosing weight in a healthy way is so incredibly hard and no one that hasn't struggled with ir for years like we have can even begin to imagine the mental toll it takes on you. Thank you for being so transparent about this and showing us everything that comes along with this journey. Its the first time I've seen someone that I fully trust covering this topic from a consumer/patient standpoint. I wish you all the success and hope this helps you become an even more radiant and confident version of yourself. ❤

I can't wait! So excited for youuu!

Really appreciate that you share your journey here. I hope everything is going well for you! As someone who struggles with weight my entire life, too, I can understand your tiredness and frustration about it so much. It's like a part of my daily existence. And I work out since 1,5 years, 2 to 3 times a week, I noticed improvements with my overall fitness levels a lot, but after over a year, I hoped for just a bit of improvement in my weight or overall looks, but no nothing yet... it's so damn frustrating. Why do I need to work so hard to get something a lot of people have naturally without working out or eat way more than me... I feel like something is wrong with me, but I'm unable to detect what and if I'm even able to fix it by myself... And just delete very stupid comment you get, enough is enough at some point!!!

GOOD FOR YOU! I'm on Semaglutide and it's been doing wonders for me! I have suffered from severe PCOS and I've lost 10kgs at a steady pace, as well as having so many non-scale/weight victories! My cycle is now regular, shorter and back within normal range! Period cramps? I don't know her? (I would spend entire DAYS in a hot bath CRYING in pain). My insulin levels used to be 10x the recommended range and it's now down to only 3x the recommended range in just over 6 months - hoping to get into the 20s at my next check-up (my highest was 91.6 with a normal range being between 2 and 10!!!). I am not agonizing over food, don't have awful cravings and don't have huge energy crashes between 10-11am that cause extreme fatigue! People need to chill and do some serious introspection! We are not the girlies who want to lose an unnecessary 5-10 pounds to meet the re-emerging 90's/00s 'body goals' - THAT is dangerous and misuse of the medication that would never be prescribed by a responsible doctor! I hate how people are demonising weight loss drugs for people who NEED them. If your quality of life is improving like this and you can finally lose weight while not dangerously restricting and punishing yourself emotionally, that's ALL that matters! I've been watching you for years and have been on the same journey with my weight as you, Fei. You do NOT need to apologize. I know you are a caring and loving person who prioritises your viewers' feelings but you don't owe them an apology for doing what's best for you. I'm SO proud of you for taking the leap and working hard to adhere to the required eating plan etc. A lot of people don't realise that Semaglutide is not a magic fix and still requires all the normal behaviour and lifestyle changes! I'm so excited to watch this chapter! Share only what you feel comfortable with, but also know that your true Lindas will pass no judgement if there are plateaus or slip-ups - they're all normal and part of the process! So much love to you

good luck on your journey! I've considered both GLP1s and surgery. Weight has been a struggle my whole life and very few are honest about how hard it is. I've been in a "holding season" for some time now - all of my attempts at beating this have been various unmitigated disasters (multiple "successes" that eventually crashed and burned after a few years, with me ending up fatter than before, struggling with a restrictive ED for YEARS that stole so many years of my life, only to regain everything AND MORE when I finally recovered) - and it feels too raw and vulnerable get my hopes up to trust the next hot new thing right now. I've just messed it all up too many times. Praying that I one day find a solution that works for me and my body.

I will always support people that want to be healthy. Congratulation on putting yourself first! Ignore any one saying anything negative and enjoy this journey. YOU GOT THIS!

Thank you for being vulnerable and real with us 💗 Your story will definitely bring strength to someone who needs it

Honestly, you are so real about running up and down the stairs. It's gotten so bad that sometimes even my knees start hurting.

You can do this! 💪 do not let others judge you. I used to be 148 pounds now I'm currently 124 pounds, lost it by walking at least 15k steps a day and also with a little help from slimming coffee~ You can do this too!

I will support you through anything fei! You got this ❤😊

I support you! Good luck on your health journey, Fei ♥️

So proud of you, Fei! The best of luck during this process. I also struggle with weight and a week ago I got a gastric sleeve, so far I'm happy with my decision.

I love you so much Feii and honestly I've been here since the beginning and you don't even know how much you have helped me appreciate my body more with you body positivity videos so I really want to thank you for sharing your journey with us ❤❤

People just need to leave people alone. Everyone is just going to do what works for them. At least she has the mindset of making herself happier, and healthier. Good luck on your journey Fei ❤

I was actually recommended this and I was planning on using it so I am glad you are making a video about this because I would love to see how your results are before starting

Girl, I’ve been watching you for years and I stopped for a bit, but I love your videos. And you feel like a bestie now since I always come back to your videos, but are we syncing? After COVID I also gained like 20 more pounds and I was already overweight 😢. The struggle to lose weight is real and hard especially if you diet but don’t see the scale going down. So after yrs of failing to lose the weight to feel healthy again, I also started semaglutide last month. I feel lucky to be on this journey with you. Best of luck, we got this!!! 💙💙💙

I’m proud of you girl! I soon will be on Ozempic to help with my health issues ( Type 2 diabetes , PCOS , insulin resistance)and weight loss. There is nothing wrong with trying to better your health 😊

Love this for you! Good luck 😘 I am on zepbound and have lost 20lbs in two months 💕💕

I'm on a similar journey in losing weight! I found out I actually gained 30kg within 2 yrs which wasn't normal for me and it was due to the side effects of my implanon and currently, got diagnosed with pcos. So it's a hell of a journey gaining back my health. Watching your videos of your process makes me feel less lonely on this journey and I appreciate how vulnerable to choose to be with your audience. Much love from Australia

I started Wegovy last July. I LOVE it! I had weight loss surgery nine years ago and gained 100 lbs of what I lost back over a two year period. I've lost ALL of my regain and then some...and I JUST titrated up to the 2.4 MG dose. Tips...listen to your body when titrating up. You can go up in MG every month but you may not need to if the dose you're on is working well. Wait until you hit a plateau. Also, once you get up to the 1MG dose the weight loss REALLY picks up, but so do the side effects like nausea. Water with Liquid IV packs are a lifesaver. Good luck and enjoy the journey!!!

you're amazing! Your journey is YOURS and no one else's. Anything you CHOOSE to share with us is a gift, and I just want you to know that I'm very grateful.

I love how open you are, keep going feii

Omg you are the cutest person on earth lol this video reminded me of myself when I got my first insulin injection. I was terrified as well so my husband had to do it for me 😂 also, as a short Asian girl, people would not hesitate to let me know when they notice I’ve gained some pounds which always made me uncomfortable. I really needed a support group to build my confidence back up and your channel has done that for me ❤

Hey Fei, I am on phentermine. 15mg. I have tried losing weight on my own with no luck and it’s so discouraging. Thank you for posting this, I am working out while watching this. Slowly, with little motivation but I’m DOING it. I’m choosing myself and you are too. Do it sad, do it lonely, do it scared, but do it. “It” being choosing you!

I’m on it and I lost 66 lbs so far (currently weight is 147lbs)…. So much have changed… so much more energy, I’m way more productive at work or house chores, even my taste for food changed… I crave Asian food, spicy food, fermented or pickled things… Coke Zero (can’t have any regular drinks anymore… too sweet)…. Honestly I finally learned how to “read” calories… wanna have some chips, great, weight a portion on a plate and eat it. No big deal… there is no forbidden food… it’s all about the amount you’re having… it’s been 26 years of dieting and fighting my weight and I finally feel free thanks to this. It’s a serious medicine and can be scary but the benefits outweigh the cons….

Girl having gone through my own weight loss journey, I know how hard it is. I’m proud of you and really happy you are willing to share this with us ❤️

Woow!! Im so proud of you on your journey, what a great inspiration! Losing weight is definitely not easy at all. One thing I realised after losing 50kg/100lbs in 5 months doing water fasting I realised that new goals don’t deliver new results, a new lifestyle does. This is a process not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits. Not chasing better results.

Wow, you got this

go fei!!! im so excited to see what new things this brings for you, wishing you lots of love and strength to achieve your goals, we love u fei

You got this oh and if people have something negative to say just block them you can do it girl I believe in you 😊

I know the struggle ! I was being so unhealthy to my body near the end of university and at the start of my career I developed IBD 😢. It's been 2 years now since, I'm on medication but it doesn't mean I can eat whatever I want. It's still a struggle, but I am setting better health goals for me and I can tell you it won't happen overnight. But it's always awesome to see people's journeys and feii, you have been inspiring!! I love your energy and I know you will be able to reach whatever goal you have set for yourself 😊

The fact that you are being SO transparent with us shows how real you are being with us. It's obvious you've thought about this a lot and are still keeping a balanced healthy diet! Keep it Fei

you're doing great fei

U GOT THIS GURL, although im not one the heavier side, im still working on being healthy and confident, that's why I'm following youu❤

WE LOVE YOU GIRLLL!!!!! You got this ❤

I have recently gained 20 pounds in 3 months too! The struggle is REAL.

fei i’ve been watching for years and it makes me happy to see u happy!!!!

Thanks for being real sis!!! I’m excited to follow your journey ❤❤

You got this, babe. A lot of us are cheering you on! We’ll try to cheer loud enough to block out the negative folks. Also, you and Al are so stinking cute. He seems like a wonderful partner. Loved the matching pajamas.

I love you!!!! I get it, the struggle is real. I appreciate you and your honest hauls. Thank you Feiii!!!!

ahhhh please more content like this your editing style is beautiful

Good for you Fei! I’m going through a weight loss regimen through a Medispa currently and will go on semaglutide in 2 months. Good luck on your journey!

It really helped my binge eating,crazy feeling! Good call on taking it at night I took it in the A.m and sometimes it would keep me sick all day rather have slept through it lol

I am so excited for you! I have been on semaglutide since December and it has made sticking to a diet soooo much easier!

I luv u FEI. So much that when u disappeared from my feed during all that beauty influencer garbage, I remembered tou enough to find you again and SUBSCRIBE. good luck on your journey. I'm on my own now that I've hit menopause. We're gonna need it!

I also recently gained 20 lbs and I'm feeling the pain, literally. You're very brave for trying this. Those meds scare me, but I've got a lot of GI issues. As long as you tolerate any side effects, you're gonna feel so much better once the weight drops off.

I am in tears bc I also had to take injections (not semaglutide in particular, but some other component) and my bf was the one who gave them to me bc I was so scared and it messed up with my head so much having to take them. You got this, Fei! 💖

Have your life revolve around something other than losing weight and you will start losing weight. If your life centers on trying to lose weight, you’ll never lose weight.

Thanks for the transparency

Ive been trying to lose weight for years, im so excited to see your journey thank you for sharing. This helps me do my reasearch of what else i can possibly do.

Fei, I love how transparent and honest you are with your weight loss journey. I too struggle with my weight loss that I was recommended too by my sister-in-law who’s a medical health professional, to put me on Semaglutide as well. Ugh! Yeah I don’t like needles either! As I was going up in dosage, the bigger the needle got. 😭 I eventually decided to stop taking it as my husband and I are trying to get pregnant (Just got off 3-4 months ago). Definitely cheering you on! Love ya Fei! ❤

You know girl. I think you are the realest. I really enjoy every part of your journey. And I and many others support you on whatever you decide 😊

I'm rooting for you girl. I am 50 now, and it is so hard to lose weight. The struggle is real, and so are you. Hope you do great and feel great during this process.👍👍

Thank you for your bravery, documentary and transparency! Ive also re-started my weightloss journery. Wishing us the best in our travels!!!

I have pcos and a number of other health issues. I can gain weight very easy . Intermittent fasting has been the biggest difference,it really controls my eating . Taking vitamins and supplements really help . Exercise and portion control . I’ve never felt better

So excited for you Fei!! I am also struggling with weight gain and hope to lose it for my own health in the long run. Thank you for sharing🫶🏽

Love the transparency and rooting for you on this journey!

Congrats on your new journey, finally being on ozenpic and it's so nice to not always feel like eating and never feeling full. I'm like is this how it is for people with regular appetites feel lol??

Literally so proud of you. No ones opinion matters but yours Lindaaaaa

Girl, do what ya gotta do. It is tour life and body and tune everyone else all the way past mute. Well done to you for the self reflection and trying to tackle it. Proud of you Fei!!!

I think if you are doing anything for the right reasons to take care of your mind, body and spirit, go for it. Just remember to be patient and kind to yourself as you go through the different stages of change. I'm happy for you taking a healthy route and showing your journey to everyone. Goals are attainable if you just pace yourself, not rush to a finish line.

Totally with you on your journey. You do what you need to do to be happy and healthy in your own skin. No one body is the same as another.

You are amazing feii! Love that you are sharing this journey and I can't wait to learn more!

Girlll, watching this made me so happy. I'M SO EXCITED FOR YOU ON THIS NEW JOURNEY! I'm not overweight by anymeans... But i'm trying to lose weight for sports related reasons and it is SO DAMN HARD like... MENTALLY LOL. Resisting the urge to snack is a killer for me ;-;

Good for you Fei. ❤Weight loss is hard and a struggle. And being hungry all the time and low key starving yourself sucks. I get it. I am 5ft and 150 (27yrs) and just had an appt with my doctor to go over weight loss options. I also have anxiety and depression and just discovered one of the meds I’m on can causes weight gain so we are going through the options but I’m super happy for you. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. ❤😊🧚🏿‍♀️

congrats girl don't listen to others you choose to take care of yourself that's what is important ! your happiness matters! 🥰
