Need to put it out there surviving on less that your body needs to function and stay alive isn’t working her butt off, it’s starvation.Totally off topic but I'm actually soooo happy I've found this thread!
I discovered Emma about 4 years ago, when she was doing hauls in her dad's conservatory and was very happy to find someone who was roughly my age and my size. Her weightloss actually made me feel so bad about myself because I saw how quickly she lost the weight and how she seemed to go from a size 16 who never exercices to a size 10 who works out every day and loves it. I watched her "My weight loss journey" video and thought she did it in a fairly healthy manner and at the time, I had just started finding exercice classes that I actually enjoyed so I definitely resented myself for not losing the weight as quickly as she did despite also going to the gym 3/4 days a week. I thought I just didn't have her drive and it made me feel like a bit of a failure. I would never have known that she was on 1200 kcal a day if it wasn't for this thread!
Obviously, I'm not saying this to take away from her weightloss because she worked her butt off (if only to be able to cope on 1200 kcal!), but I'm glad I know how unachieveable and unstainable her training was.
But thing is you need to put in the hours and the free time and videos that dont create the money to build a following and bring people to the channel which in turn gets you the brand deals and the bigger companies due to your following so its hours put in for the future if that makes sense. You cant just click fingers and get to the end goal you ha e to put the effort in to get there. She just has no motivation and says she doesnt want to film because she is sad/tired. You know what i feel sad sometimes and i feel like i have no motovation but guess what .... i have to leave my problems and turn up for my job because people expect me to be there and rely on me to be there so i have to do it. I used to like her and enjoy her content but its just the same old im tired i have no motovation crap. Doesnt wash anymore i think she will lose followers for itI understand Emma's lack of creativity and motivation due to lockdown. Its hard to come up with a new idea when everyday is the same.
However, I think she simply doesn't want to upload videos that doesn't generate any profit for her. And that totally makes sense because that is her job !
And yes youtube videos generate good $$ but I bet her main chunk of income is the brand deals, then money from her videos must be like a bonus.
I don't want to sound like a hater but or anything but obviously she doesn't have the inspiration to create a fun video when there's no money behind as motivation... and creating "free" videos about her using products she just 'loves' and there's no sponsorship, affiliate link or anything behind that doesn't suit her business model anymore.
Imagine you being in your 9-5 as an accountant or whatever and doing something for free ... would you be as motivated?
Don't want to sound rude or sound like I'm defending her. I'm just sharing my perspective and thats the truth of her job but simply uses the excuse of not feeling motivated...
Fucking what?! Well I certainly didn’t give her permission. Who do I complain to?It’s when she said you guys said yes.... wtf sorry
Walking is one of the best things you can do for physical and mental health and the fact you can do that much after a hip replacement is amazing! You definitely should feel good about itTell me about it!! I am aware I should and need to do more exercise but I had a hip replacement year ago and have a lot of resulting issues and ones that are still present despite the op so I do struggle with exercise and finding things I can do without being in pain so I know I don’t do as much as I should but I have recently started dog sitting for my parents new puppy, since Jan, while they re at work 2/3 days a week and on those days we do about 11k steps a day and it’s about 4.5 miles.....which isn’t tonnes by any means but it’s more than I was doing and a step in the right direction, so I have been feeling quite good about it, but then I see stuff like this and compared to what she’s doing every week! It makes me feel like an actual slug!!!
I don’t understand this trend at all......it doesn’t look good on anyone? Admittedly some pull it off better than others but when you re brows are already so huge I don’t know why you d want to make them look like they re trying to run away from you face!
I don’t understand her at all, I understand things are very different at the moment and we can’t do the things we’re used to doing etc but making creative content is literally her job.....there are loads of other you tubers out there managing to make interesting content without leaving the house but she seems to have no idea whatsoever! I mean I wouldn’t have a clue myself but I’m not a you tuber and it’s not my job but I’d like to think if it was I would have more ideas than wake up, exercise, fanny around stewing apples and making a curry we ve all seen a million times and then maybe talk about filming a few reels that genuinely no one wants to see! There must be things she could do that would be more entertaining! I think it’s just an excuse now to be lazy and spend more time exercising! She is so disorganised as well I mean if I knew I had a meeting at a certain time and had to film a video which are both for my work, I’d either exercise another time or just give it a miss that day so I could get my work done, not overdo the exercise and skip the work stuff?? It literally makes no sense? Exercise doesn’t make her money so why prioritise that? Also people who work a normal full time job have to do their work AND fit in exercise or others things they want to do as well, we can’t just fob off work because we want to exercise or food prep! I don’t think she has a bloody clue I really don’t! It frustrates me so much!!!
She seems upset. Comment didn’t lie though. And yes, I can predict her vlogs now. Start with time lapse of exercise/yoga and move to eating stewed apples a granola. DONT start speaking until the viewer is close to sleep.
