I listened to the entire Wakeup Bright video and gorl is in serious denial about her eating habits. She said some odd stuff about how she "punishes" herself with food. She says she overeats when she's depressed because she "wants to punish herself with food" as "she doesn't deserve to lose weight". She ascribes most of her weight gain to lack of consistent workouts, which at her size, honey, no, that's a food problem. There is no possible way for a 300+ lb person to exercise their way out of morbid obesity -- has to start with putting down the fork.
She also blamed "fad diets" (keto) and life changes like moving. That's fine, but it doesn't address the root of the problem, which imo is that she rewards herself with food and eats when she's bored, not the other way around. I suspect that when her husband is away on duty she binges and then is ashamed, and then binges because she's ashamed. She only mentions oreos as a problem food but that can't just be it. Nobody gets to 350lbs just eating oreos. I'd imagine she's a total carb hog in general, including loads of chips, potatoes, bread etc.
Her relationship with her spouse is barely mentioned. I got the impression there is nothing there between them, at all. He does not seem to be a part of her "weight loss journey" in any way. In that way she reminded me of Chantal, who always said "Bibi is her rock" but like Wakeup Bright I get the impression it's more just a roomate situation for convenience. Her military spouse needs someone to keep the house while he's off on duty, that's it. He certainly can't be happy the girl he married at 170 is now 310.
I also watched her "timed mile" video from late January. Some really strange stuff in that one. She glossed over that she was in the hospital and "sick" in December and briefly mentions it at the end of the video. What was she sick with? Did she get COVID? Did she have a mental break or something? When she's filming the mile she does the same 2x speed of her waddling that Anna does, and then bizarrely, when she's doing her "timed mile" (which she seemed really PROUD about) she's talking to the camera and setting up her tripod on the side of the road. She says she has to "take breaks". Which OK, just keep putting one foot in front of the other fatty, works for the Sherpas...
In case you're curious she finished her mile in 28 minutes. A 28 minute mile. 2.1 MPH. That's a waddle. Her tracker told her she burned over 300 calories, which yea, maybe that's why she thinks she isn's working out enough. She burned 150 or so at most, maybe 175. Put the fork down, you inhale that amount in half a serving of oreos.
Another gorl she reminds me of is "laursafittolive" It cracks me to up see gorls 300+ lbs doing the most half assed shitty form workouts and never lose any weight.
4:50 in this video, one of the worst examples of a "snatch pull" you'll ever see. Holy shit her poor lower back.

She has no job currently and has a home workout room. Her husband has to be just throwing up his hands. The rest of the video just shows how obsessed she is with food and how little just binging on "oreos" have to do with her weight gain. She's now including her "workouts walking the dogs" as a workout. There's a "slight incline" so it's a workout. Gets her heart rate up.
Thanks for introducing me to this cow, she's one to follow.
