She was complaining her’s was broken, guess she purchased another, one video she’s doing is the 15k steps in a day for like a month or something, so more boring content where her mental health can be questioned, she’s got an obsession with it
I actually can’t believe the amount of ADs!! There was one as soon as she finished her intro
So that video, she mentions she eats similarly to Emily canham who has filmed herself eating less than 1000 calories in a day, I do worry about Emma, the way some of those youtubers don’t exercise and eat less than her, she goes mental on the exercise and complains she feels sluggish....
why is she working out twice a day? That’s two hours of exercise a day, she isn’t giving her body chance to recover! She’s even said she struggles to give herself rest days. I’m massively into fitness myself but she has developed some kind of unhealthy obsession over it, I hope she realises this soon...
I just want to know why her trainer isn’t clocking on to this?
When she had porridge for breakfast she said that she thought because she ate the whole banana and a square of chocolate, it made her feel really full
Yeah ok, Emma
Yeah ok, Emma
Oh gosh I haven't watched the video yet but the way she does go on about exercise in Every. Weekly. Vlog...
When I saw the title of the latest video, I couldn't bring myself to watch...
I was gonna watch the weekly vlog but again the title is about exercise runniing 10 miles even thought shes on holiday, shes got a really dangerous obsession with fittness
Surely Tim has noticed this? Her portions are very small, she’s worried about oil etc?
Honestly I think she's blurred the line between becoming a 'health and fitness queen' and disordered behaviour
her holiday vlog was draining as anything listening to her moan about how much food she wanted but wasn't going to have and saying Tim wasn't letting her have a doughnut? She's definitely been watching Emily canham, complaining about feeling stodgy? Obviously you have to restrict yourself to some extent to get results but I don't think filming those moments and behaviours for YouTube really fits with her 'positive vibes' persona she's trying to portray, especially if young girls watch her videos

You have to eat. It doesn't become much of a choice to restrict because your body requires the calories - protein, fats, carbs and all!
If fitness is the goal then you have got to eat.

The thing is I feel like Emma doesn't even really like running? She didn't seem to go out at all to run during lockdown, and even now only goes out and does one long run a week. People who enjoy running and are serious about it go out and do short and long distances, multiple times a week. It's like she only does it to prove something to herself/her viewers...
You're right. It'll take a long time to improve as a runner without covering multiple distances through the week.
It's also quite hard to be big into weights, big into yoga, big into spinning and big into running all at the same time because its hard to dedicate enough time to all of them (unless you are overexercising, sound familiar?!)
Her 10 mile time was alright for a beginner but for any improvement or to get to a sub 2 hour half she's going to need to let some of the other workout regime go to focus on running.
She has said it in videos before, she is very goal orientated but she also loses interest in things quickly, which makes sense with her attitude to health and fitness, but also a dangerous combination for disordered behaviour. I think there is no doubt now that she is demonstrating disordered behaviour.

I don't think anyone needs to bring pace into a running discussion. She's goal oriented and that appears to manifest in her distances covered, not time goals. I operate time/km not time/mile so not really sure what her times exactly equate to but I really don't think it's a big deal. She hasn't exactly mentioned a sub-2 HM - has she? I'll be honest I couldn't watch her whole vlog this week as it was so dull so I could be very wrong.
But yeah I agree I don't think she particularly enjoys running; she likes the caloric deficit it brings. Maybe I'm thinking into it too much, and I know people run for a whole host of reasons, but as a club runner who has a lot of peers who are runners, there's not one person I know who first and foremost doesn't just love running and Emma ain't that
I've watched Emma's videos for a good few years now and she has definitely started showing signs of becoming obsessed with exercise and working out. Fair play to her for losing all the weight but I feel she is going overboard now and setting a bit of a bad example to her younger followers who may be experiencing self esteem issues over their weight or bodies.
The ad thing is really starting to p*ss me off now. Yesterdays weekly vlog had an ad straight after she'd done the intro! I don't know how many there were in total but it seems to get more and more with every video. I understand that's part of how they raise their revenue but there comes a point where it starts becoming off putting and people will just stop watching, not just the ads but the whole video.

She also has massive body dysmorphia issues, I keep getting her loose skin video recommended. Her loose skin isn't bad, it's barely noticeable, she can wear crop tops and it doesn't hang when she bends over. I know someone who has a massive overhang of their stomach, loose arms, loose legs etc from the amount they have lost, and Emma preaching "love yourself, be proud of your loose skin" when she has so little is kind of a kick in the teeth to anyone who has such massive issues because their skin problems are so much worse than hers. She's speaking from a place of privilege and a place of a warped mirror viewpoint. She needs to reassess her mentality and possibly seek therapy, it's not healthy.
