For the past three months, I have been "all-in" with unconditionally listening to my hunger cues and eliminating most forms of exercise. After 12 long months and a lot of soul-searching, I have finally recovered my period and my life. In this video, I share the intimate details of my journey and where I go from here.

I too have noticed super-slim WFPB vloggers disappearing and it's so sad, they sometimes mentioned going all in before closing down their channel and social media and my heart goes out to them because they probably binged and gained weight and were too ashamed to show themselves. I know what it's live to live for decades through a binge & restrict cycle and the only thing that healed me was a WFPB lifestyle that has enabled me to lose weight healthily and stopped all cravings for salty, sugary and fatty foods.

Lovely Karli, once again thank you so much for being honest and sharing your very personal and professional journey, I too am an all-or-nothing person and find it hard to be balanced and moderate sometimes, whether it's with diet or exercise so I understand what you're going through. It is terrifying to go all in because whenever it's happened to me (after restricting too much and not getting enough nutrients) I couldn't stop and ended up becoming seriously overweight and very unhappy very quickly, which is also not healthy. So I hope you have a healthier attitude than me and start eating and exercising again in a balanced way as it's also very important to be happy with our body and weight and to feel good in clothes. In my case gaining weight did not make me more energetic or productive and definitely not healthy as I just feasted on junk food.

I had some medical issues recently that made me lose less than 10 lbs, and that 10 lbs has messed with my whole body, along with some moderate blood loss due to a minor procedure. I have Crohn’s and my GI track has definitely joined the party. Dealing with extreme hunger because your iron is low and your immune system is in a revolt becomes much more challenging when you get sick after 5 bites. Being nauseous and hungry at the same time is awful! One thing I’m trying to do that I plan on continuing is eating a proper breakfast. I have never been a breakfast person. It makes me nauseous. When I was a kid I’d actually throw up from it half the time. I suspect I was having Crohn’s issues even back then because I know a lot of people with GI issues have this happen, if they try to eat first thing in the morning. I used to have to wait a few hrs, but now I’m doing some sort of V8 style fruit and veggie juice or carnation instant breakfast with fruit, and then having either peanut butter toast, oatmeal with peanut butter, or eggs about an hour later with some mint tea. It is annoying having to basically eat two small breakfasts. I would kill to eat one big one and enjoy it like everyone else I know except my husband (he’s a type 1 diabetic and has to do what I do because he will have a glucose spike and drop). But this is better than nothing I guess. I honestly do several small meals throughout the day so my digestive track doesn’t fight me. I will have a sandwich at times when people have snacks, and then eat another one an hour later because it’s not easy to get enough food with Crohn’s, sometimes. I feel like I am always eating but always wishing to eat more.

That's the usual carnivore excuse. Animal foods would only help you get all sorts of other health issues and are unnecessary for a healthy diet and lifestyle. There is the ethical issue too, I will not take a life, every animal has the desire to live and thrive just like we do.

@@luluandmeow I actually typed the reply before finishing the video 🤦🏾‍♀️I didn't know she was vegan I just saw what she was eating. Yes, I agree and love animals. She definitely shouldn't do anything that goes against her ethics. First time seeing the channel. Stay healthy
