And by Gods provision. I walk and talk and dance as often as I can. My second is son is amazing and crazy smart! I follow all your videos and Instagram etc. I think you look great! I think you look healthy and strong. I love your full round approach to fitness. Listening to your body is so vitally important. I likewise have gained some weight after being the super trained, toned and lean fitness buff. I now am, like you, listening to my body and nourishing it the way I aught to and no, I am not any less fit than I was.

I feel you on this. No, because I was sick. I have Crohns Disease. My body was killing itself. And I nearly died, at my lowest I was 80 pounds. But God granted a miracle, I got better, and my disease is in remission. But I gained so much weight, like a lot. I am after a 8 months, about pounds. But what do I get? It just sickens me.

But our society, my family would prefer thinness at the line of death, instead of life with some extra weight. So, your beautiful, and healthy, and screw the gap thigh. What are we, poultry? I like your program because your a shot of sunshine, and positivity. Its ok to no be perfect, and I love it. So keep shining, having fun, and leading us along.

And so am I. Today i went to say hi to my relatives and i went out walking with my cousins and lets just say they have a perfect body. I know exactly how you feel. Through the mall you can see Victoria secret model ads and it just made me feel worse. I feel fat now that someone pointed it out, I asked me friend if I gained weight and he said a little.

I feel very disappointed. Oh I thought it only happens here in my country! Awesome blog btw Cassey! I think I gained some: Dieting is hard for me. I cannot follow the meal plans since the some of the ingredients used are expensive and not available in my country. These people connections to me range from close friends and family to people I barely meet in a year. With you, I learnt the truth that nothing come easy.

And to do that, I need to form good habits still in progress. I want to thank you for that. You can find more about her story here in this link. When she was competing she said she was eating chicken breasts all the time link to her story. After the competition she started to binge.

I definitely can say that his girl has disorder. This was absolutely inspirational, thank you Cassie for sharing your experience. I had felt so alone and terrible after I gained the weight back. But coming from the experience of someone as beautiful and kind-hearted as you, I feel so much more NOT alone. Thank you so so so much, you made my day so much better and I will keep on sticking to my fitness goals!!! Love you so much! Since then — I am married, and I have noticed in the past 2 years that I have gained weight, which has become noticeable in my face.

To be honest it is only about 11 pounds more than I used to be but it made such a difference…the worst is facebook. Being tagged in new photos and seeing myself in pictures posted years ago. I also get discouraged seeing people who I know who were heavier and are now extremely fit. They are able to achieve these things within 3 months i know this when they post their progress on social media but it seems like its taking forever for me.

The worst part is when i was fit, people reacted differently, I was complimented more, I felt way more confident, and now I feeel depressed and unattractive. This is an old post, but thank you for sharing it. I just read it today. I know this is just a bump in the road, and I can get where I once was again. Thank you for sharing your story, you are very inspiring.

Cassey, Thank you for sharing your post. It was incredibly deep, sincere and a valuable message we can all learn from. Thanks for everything that you do. You are truly original. Blogilates has been a fantastic source of workouts that are soooooo not easy but possible to do on even my toughest chronic pain days. Cassie — thank you SO much for sharing the inside out of all you do, feel, experience. Keep doing what you do and inspiring us to contemplate what we each do so we can each find our personal best in that moment. This is avery old post but I just wanted to tell that I find it incredibly rude and surprising that someone would criticize you for being too fat!

I was in a pretty good shape when I started doing these but I have noticed some very pleasant changes in my body. I just wanted to thank you for your hard work and the fact that you provide these workouts for us for free and also to tell you that your are a beautiful person and your positivity is inspiring!

But I know exactly what you mean. It makes me loose all my motivation: Omg I want to cry because I have gained again like 35 pounds and I feel so sad and depressed I know how you feel and people are so mean a friend of mine told me once you should shout your mouth in order to not eat, other looks your legs are like a big part of a building is so sad people said those things and here I am again gaining weight so I have to work harder to shed those and be healthy and happy again is sad for me to see that my jeans doesnt fit me anymore but like you said is not a big deal I have to get up and work again thanks casey love your videos your so pretty and honestly I would love to have that amazing body of yours big hug from GUATEMALA.

And scales always tell the truth. Cassey you are such a rolemodel for me. And I really have to say those people who made these comments are so superficially. I mean, propably no one does so much work than you. And we are all humans, everybody is the same. Everybody got good days and also bad. So why are we talking about each other in a bad way. We should support everyone. So girls, please be cofindent. What a beautiful article. Thank you for this. You know people always have something to say. I have gained a lot of weight now though, I went through depression and a lot of dark stuff which caused weight gain.

You know, people called me fat even when I was at my lowest weight 50kg and I believed them. Btw, you look great Cassey! I hated myself from age 10 until I was 24, yes until last year. I was depressed and started using food, alcohol and partying to not feel. Then last year a friend came up to me and while talking about life in general and just being goofy he got me thinking about what I was doing to myself. While I was reading this post I saw myself in all those who asked you if you had gained weight and I loved your response.

That has been my response for the past year and it works. So what if I gain weight again? I love your videos and your spirit, please keep them coming. My life has been a little crazy lately and I started your workouts to try and get healthier and have more energy. I have something called polycystic ovarian syndrome at least thats what we think it is and it has been such a challenge for me.

Im always in constant pain, but I want to live my life! That goes to all of us working hard out there! I know this is long after the fact, but I had to say something. I absolutely adore this post. Fast forward about 6 months to my wedding. I had unintentionally, but not without work, lost 25 lbs. This time I was just focused on getting the nutrients I needed and on being happy. It amazed me how doing just this put me into a healthy BMI for the first time since I was about And I felt great! About a month later we found out we were pregnant. We were so excited, but I was also terrified because I remember my mom getting huge all over during her pregnancies and not being able to lose weight very well after.

Well, I got pretty bad morning sickness and lost my job and an additional 12 lbs. This put me weighing less than I did the entire time in high school. The next little while was very difficult for me. On the one hand I loved the thinner face and arms and legs I had and I wanted to keep it all, and on the other I would look in the mirror and cry about the way I looked and how much I wanted this baby to be healthy.

So, I know this is a long comment, but I just wanted to say thank you. I have never been anywhere near bikini competition shape, nor do I really want to. But working to get your body to feel and work a certain way and then being able to sit back as it healthily changes can be very challenging. Thanks for posting this, Cassey. I have your back. You are beautiful inside and out: I constantly get asked if I am pregnant. I worke with a girl who was 6 months pregnant and a lady asked us if we were due around the same time…..

The real kicker is that I am only 21 years old!!! The answer is a no!!! I know I am not that big I have a pouch like everyone although mines a bit bigger I still have one. I have lost 25 pounds since moving and I am still losing the only times I have a problem with gaining weight is when my ovarian cysts burst and I cant workout. I do admit I get into a slump feel terrible about myself so of course I eat more and it makes me feel even worse.

You are an incredible role model for so many girls and you have brought us all together to embark on a healthier, fitter lifestyle. Your work-out videos got me through some of the most stressful weeks of my degree and now that I am officially post-university and unemployed I am carving out more time to spend with you and your wonderful pilates videos. They make me feel stronger, productive, elegant and powerful. Already I am noticing, not only a difference in my body but also in the way that I view my body. Thank you so much for all you do. I think you look great, fit and healthy.

How can anyone call you fat? I like you MUCH better with some more weight and brighter skin than on your bikini pictures. Still fit, but more like a woman. I think you are great the way you are. Send you lots of love: I can totally relate to this! I have a big family and my relatives come to my house almost every single day!

So when I was a kid,they would ask me to finish a big bowl of rice and lots of meat and they would feed me supper such as chinese fried noodles, white bread, instant noodles…etc. I was pretty upset and I would pinch those muffintops every time I stood in front of a mirror. I started to pay more attention on my diet and food intake,and slowly allowed myself adapt to a more active lifestyle.

Then I found out about fitness and I started go gym and trained really hard and eating super clean my family said I was having eating disorder cause I started to eat brown rice or multigrain instead of white rice. After 7 months, I started my college life. It was hard for me to adapt to a completely new environment. I had low self esteem because of my parents. After 3 months in college, I finally went loose on my eating clean diet cause I tried to socialise and eat out with friends, and my body reacted so fast that after 2 weeks my period came back.

I felt really bad about myself and because of the stress from study as well,I was diagnosed as having depression. My aunts keep telling me I look fat and my thighs and butt are so big, I feel hurtful after hearing all these critics. How ridiculous is that? Honestly, I feel so down. After 3 weeks of hard work, nothing changes, I really feel like giving up: My relatives are all saying I am gaining weight and when I work out they as why if I just eat again.

They may be making all these comments now but in a few weeks, when all your hardwork visibly pays off, they will understand and at that point, you will have overcome negative comments that almost prevented you from a healthy lifestyle you once enjoyed. In her blog and some of her videos she confirms many times that our weight fluctuates all the time and I think as a fitness professional, she should be heeded. She says the best way to […]. Why in the world would anyone point out your weight gain since the bikini competition when there is a very limited amount of people who have the determination to train for one.

While your hard work and dedication was definitely visible and amazing, I actually think you look better now; more realistic and easier to relate to. I now know you have struggles and off days as well and it makes me appreciate you even more! I am a mother of three children under the age of four. I have had my ups and downs emotionally about my weight.

I try to remind myself that I needed to gain weight to grow my babies. I hate it when people pity me. What happened to you?! You used to be so pretty! I am 27 years old, with three children between 4 yrs old and 4 months old. I get treated on a daily basis like i literally weigh a ton. So it took a long time to accept myself. This is exactly what I needed at this exact moment.

Funny how what you need tends to show up at the right time. But youre so down to earth, and youre like a real human being about fittness. You recognized that we all fluctuate on our path but as long as we keep striving to be the best we can be, who cares! You are my inspiration who makes fittness FUN and gets me off the couch everyday! Im on week 2 of the beginner caledar and i feel more energized and healthy already!

I used to be really really skinny growing up, but when puberty hit I started eating and eating and gaining weight. At first I was glad to see the curves on my body because I grew up to be that tiny skinny girl. My asian family even gave me a nickname: It kinda made me feel good. So I kept eating. I got to the point that I felt confident in bikini and people telling me I have a great figure. A couple years later my oh so asian mother and sisters would tell me I was gaining too much weight. I just love food too much! I keep telling myself I can do this without letting people know and letting them support me.

But really, I want completely strangers to support me and follow my fitness journey. Very little people would share with us their pain and sweat to have a lean and healthy looking body, but you helped me to have a more realistic mindset and realistic expectations of what it takes to change my diet and lifestyle into a healthier one.

We gotta take control of our diets, not the other way around. I just hate the fact that you have to explain your weight gain how ridiculous is that!? I know this is a really late response…I feel that you really are amazing. Not alot of people can endure the pain and go through the whole workout. Seriously, people just judge too much. I mean someone who is overweight could be perfectly healthy and happy too!

Nody image is in the brain, not in your body fat. I almost went anorexic because all my friends lost wieght without trying, and I had to work my butt off to be pretty, in my mind. Cassie and all the people reading this comment right now. I feel like crying right now after reading your post, Cassey. I remember working my butt off last summer, trying to be thin while fit as possible.

I successfully lost over 15lbs and was at I keep thinking I have gotten fatter because of the weight gain, even though I have gained new muscles on my butt and thighs. Your post has truly inspired me to get back up and start motivating myself again. I can relate with this blog post so incredibly much. About 4 years ago I was tiny…probably too small for my height, but I thought I looked phenomenal. I was wearing a size 0 with size 2 often being extremely baggy. I obtained this weight from unhealthy measures. I worked out constantly and was only eating about 1, calories a day, sometimes less.

I thought that I could maintain this weight forever and be happy. Well, eventually life happened and slowly those size 0 jeans were getting snug. A significant back injury prevented me from working out, which was just making matters worse in my mind. I could not stop focusing on the gain. I think you look so much better with some meat on you. It caused panic that people were beginning to notice. So, today I am just trying to be healthy. I eat right, I do cardio and blogilates, and I allow myself an indulge here and there.

I have also had discussions with friends who are obsessed with looking super model skinny, as well as having to cut out one friend who was super competitive with me in the quest to look good. With time I have realized the connection between mind and body and how they completely connect with each other.

Replacing some terms for myself like healthy instead of skinny has been beneficial because no longer is the focus on being super skinny, just being the healthiest version of myself. Whatever, I feel great! Dear Cassey… I had the same problem as you…I wanted perfect slim body with no fat.. And I never had the perfect silhouette from my fantasy. I just stopped with that crazy routine.. I stopped care about what everybody think and say about my butt.

I started from the beginning. But after that diet, when I started to eat normally.. I was so upset. I have my healthy, fitness body. I just learn eng: Love you Cassey, you inspire me every day! My estrogen levels are low and so my doctors told me I have to gain weight. My doctor wants me at to be able to menstruate. I know I need to think about health first, but I am scared because being so cut has become a huge part of my identity personally and at school.

I want to make sure that I keep my muscle and tone even though I have to gain weight. If you start eating gradually healthy food but in a larger quantity and you keep training, that food will help you build up muscles; and those muscles will be the new gained weight, not fat. They weigh more anyway. Enough healthy food and training build muscles. Not enough food intake consumes your muscles and your energy to train. My guess is that you probably need to eat a somewhat larger quantity of food, you lack nutrients.

I noticed how in control you were your movements. You are perfect Cassey! People should be more concerned on looking fit and healthy instead of looking skinny and depriving themselves of food. I want to have abs but I dont wanna starve myself for it. It all boils down to determination and hard-work: But she was the one that was addicted to mcdonalds or anything she could get her hands on.

I felt bad for her to not control her binges and cravings. I was hurt and felt betrayed. We went to the gym together and catch up. Turns out she was jealous, wishing she had what i had and more. And yet she made another remark i cant quite remember but affected me in just the same way. Only because she was trying to put me down about my accomplishments to make her feel better.

She went to mcdonalds right after. I do have a high fat percentage, I also have a lot of muscle mass. She has an anorexic mentality. She eats, but not enough. I do eat those foods. Just sometimes I binge. I do want to take off the metaphorical fat suit that is just actual fat. I want her to gain weight and be healthy. I would also like to point out that in the fifties and lower, a woman was supposed to be freakishly thin and small, and those from that era have that mind frame.

Food is there to enjoy! That is the opposite of healthy and happy! I truly appreciate this post! Of course, everyone had negative comments about how tiny I was, but I was working out, running, lifting weights…and despite being small, I felt strong. About 20 pounds worth!! I eat clean, the majority of the time, but when night-time boredom and munchies hit, I go haywire. Anyways, this post got off topic, my main point is…that I appreciate your honesty. Heck, maybe they even have bad months or years!! So thank you for your honesty!!

The 6 Biggest Mistakes to Lose Weight (AVOID THESE!)

I have tears in my eyes reading your post. I hated working out until I found your videos. I suffered from an eating disorder in high school, and now in college, I have gained some weight and am not accepting very well. So many people wrote you here and I know my words are just a little drop on the ocean of support and love, but I still want to add it to make this ocean even bigger. I came to the US 7. I came to the country of a completely different food quality and I also lived alone for the first time in 21 years and hardly knew how to cook.

One day I couldnt pull my jeans more than mid-thigh and I thought oh, I think I did gain some weight, so I got a scale and saw lbs. It did bother me, but like a lot of college and working kids, I just didnt really have time to take care of the problem, plus a lot of kids around me were not in their best shape and didnt seem to worry. And I kept buying clothes that were size smaller for the day when I fit in them, I knew I will. I ate only tuna salad sandwiches and hummus. I was scared to go back to being bigger, so I tried to watch what I eat, I started weighting myself every day and I would not eat almost anything if I saw I gained a pound.

I tried working out but I hated it. I went down to pounds which was my teenage years weight and was so scared to go over as if my entire life depended on it. But I still hated working out, I counted calories like crazy and weighted myself twice a day, freaking out how I would be 3 pounds heavier at night.

And then restaurant week hit the city and I gained 8 pounds in 6 weeks. I kept my weigh around lbs for year and a half but mostly because I didnt eat much. I didnt eat a lot, but I knew that I was eating much more calories. I did not work out for entire 2 weeks, did not move around much and I lost weight! Thats when I realized that its about quality of he food. My grandma used only natural ingredients and made food with love. I thought that if I dont learn what to eat and dont work out, it will be hard for me to ever get in the shape I always wanted to be. So I started working out minimum of 5 times a week, eating more but healthier, learned about nutrition and what my body needs to have energy.

I gained 3 pounds in couple weeks knowing its water weight that my muscles need to heal after the workouts plus always having food in my system since I stopped starving myself. I started to see my body change and muscles define. For the last month I worked out every single day because my body is screaming for it and loves it, and I ate huge salads with meat or fish and tons and tons of fruits.

I did not lose any weight but I know that Im gaining muscle and my scale cant trick me anymore. I started doing your videos 2 month ago and I just adore your personality!

SuperFit SuperFast Nutrition

That video that you mentioned as the one where people pointed out your weight, I was sure it was just your time of the month because seeing how you have no problem working out and talking while Im screaming in pain trying to follow never made me question your amazing fitness level. So whoever make comments like that are just unhappy people who need to criticize to make themselves feel better because they just made someone feel bad too.

Please dont ever worry about such things. You are already so much ahead of them in fitness and you can only get better and better. I am sorry I wrote so much but I think I never talked about this to anyone and your post made me feel sad that anyone would even say things like that to you.

Thank you for helping me to become a healthier fitter happier me! I get that a lot too! I can do so much more than many others can. Everyone takes their time and has their own plans to reach their goals and nobody should ever have that power to bring you down. Cassey, you are forever an inspiration to me, seriously. And being at the receiving end, I am so glad you brought this up to the public and make others realise what are the effects of not filtering what you say.

Plus, i am pretty sure you probably gained 0. I stumbled upon your blog very recently. Makes me believe that you are just a girl like me. Many people are lost in this crazy desire to look unrealistic. Be healthy, exercise and go harder and stronger! Hi Cassey, I just wanted to say that the fact you admit to gaining the weight back and that you work so hard to stay thin, you are amazing.

I recently moved three hours away from home for college and I work at a fast food restaurant, like most college students. I then began looking at my pictures from Summer and realized I ganined alot of weight since then. This was a small reality check for me and I started making some time for the gym. What really hit me was when I went home for Thanksgiving and the first thing my grandmother told me in 3 months was, wow you gained some weoght. This broke my heart.

Now I go to the gym 5 days a week, do ypur videos 3 times a week, and I do my Wii Fit everyday. Thank you for all the encouragement and support. Your reflection is so honest and real that I am feeling even more inspired and u are right life has ups and downs and so does our weight and by no means this is a reflection of what we can accomplish. Is not measure by pounds but by hard work, motivation, dedication and when we fall out of track it only counts much more when we get back to it. I know you have so many comments, and God knows if you ever get to read all of these, but I want you to know something.

Some of my girlfriends and I have a past of anorexia, and guess what? God willing, I will get my Pilates Instructing Certification so that I can teach Pilates, because you made me fall in love with the art, joy, and challenge of it. I thank God for you. Thank you for everything.

Bless you, Love always, Julia Grace. Can I just say that I feel the exact same way? I just stumbled on your POP pilates videos recently, and have had the same history as Julia Grace, but also had knee problems that led to me not being able to work out, spiraling the eating problems. This blog has some great videos that I can do and help me feel better too. Thanks for being an inspiration! I have followed you all through University and you taught me basically everything I know about working out, cleaning eating and keeping a positive attitude about mind and body, without a focus on the number on a scale.

I kept my weight constant for nearly 3 years, and it is something I will always be proud of. The stress of making new friends, a new job, even new food have led me to completely lose control. However, I try and tell myself everyday that even though my clothes might fit tighter, the way I live now makes me happy. I might not be able to keep up with the 4x a week of workouts I was capable of in University but I still try and do a handful of your videos every week.

Thank you for being a constant source of inspiration, accessible at all hours, from all corners of the world.

Sadly, as I got older I began to have serious health problems including being incredibly overweight, but my love for food remained persistent and strong. I struggled and toiled with my problems and got constantly ridiculed and made fun of because of the weight. I was bullied, shunned from groups and a lot of the times physically harassed. Eventually I came to the point where I was simply fed up with the ridicule, feeling sick, and unattractive.
