How long is the longest she’s ever been able to take a break from social media? As far as I’ve seen, it’s never been more than a couple of days.
I'm a long time lurker, first time poster, yadda yadda. Been following Chantal since she had 500 subscribers so about 2 or so years. Longest break was in late winter 2018 when she didn't post for about six weeks in mid to late November 2018 until New Years 2019. Long enough of a break to warrant a "second, third, fourth chance..."
But ever since her channel has been an absolute shit show. She's cycling every week now. In late 2018 was the pink shirt "I'm not okay" about the time she decided to sell her car and other poor decisions. Then in 2019 we've been through water fast, grape fast, hospital visits, more attempts to go vegan, some trips to the gym, an inability to stay on Lexapro long enough to adapt and quit, disabled and deleted comments on like a dozen videos but with a library of over 500 videos, comments still enabled and she'll read them, more lying, more bullshit...
We also in the five and a half months of her trying to be more healthy, watching her binge after a fast or strict diet by going to McD's, buying a food tray for the car meant to be sturdy on the bottom of the steering wheel but she's too large for that.. and then pretends to eat a slice or two of cake after eating a total of four meals worth from HelloFresh or other like brand and even admitted to changing her clothes to make it seem as if it wasn't the same day.
Chantal, the strawberry cake turned your tongue into a hot pink color..we know you ate the first half of the cake in the same binge session. Question is, you punish yourself by eating this way then punish yourself a second time by posting "this time it's different!". But it never is different. It's the same script "I am going to do more recipes, cook with me, cookbangs" but you never do. Maybe one cooking recipe after the claim, you list YouTube "chefs" you'll work with, but you really have no recipes and you can't even dice a fucking onion. If anything the video of you cookign a meal with Bibi you can't even peel a potato and your interest in the kitchen is much like picking produce in which you're an obnoxious teenager who would rather not be bothered and totally disinterested.
Hint: When you throw, or toss any produce it will bruise it before being ripe and when you put your nose picking, fast food ham hock fingers on it and then toss it, it ruins the produce. If you're going to be plant based or whatever the fuck... basic 101 Grocery Produce etiquette..know how to pick your produce and if not, don't literally throw it or mishandle it. WTF. It's necessary to tell a 35 year old woman how to handle produce.
Then you punish yourself a third time by thinking your audience is stupid and you punish yourself a fourth time by getting upset when we indicate when WE are not stupid, that you are the the one who is highly misinformed and crediting quacks based on a simple Google Search. Hell there is an October 2018 video with your eyebrows totally "What happened to Baby Jane" with a barrette in your hair going off about a plate and a potato.
Then you deleting/disabling comments which punishes yourself a fifth time when you lose credibility, subscribers and then you get shit review videos, shit forums, ranting. THIS IS HOW YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
I'm intruiged by her because she's such a wreck and fails to realize she's the biggest contributor to her cycles. She always goes on the "my channel content won't be about weight loss" but it always is. She'll finally go to a doctor, seems reluctant but sticks with it because she gets positive feedback, then when shit gets real then she never follows through for the shittiest reasons and/or admits to lying then she gets a swarm of negative comments. Comments gets disabled. Then "Hey guys, I'm leaving YouTube" for a few days (if that long) and it's the same goddamned crap and maybe.... maybe with makeup and a shower but the same shitty shirts.
She's changed if you go through her videos from oldest to newest where mukbangs were her comfort zone. Then her cysts were a wake up call. No one other than herself told her to go 'vegan' or plant based. She's tried it several times but never works because she doesn't just simply eat more vegetables, less meat/dairy. And she is AWARE of this excessive mindset and not finding a medium.
What pissed me off in her last video of admitting she ate a block of cheese as another comment pointed out "I had 2 ounces of meal prepped cheese" but she kept eating at the block. A block is 16 ounces or one pound. She blamed the food for her trigger.
But her trigger was not the cheese. Her trigger was how to emotionally deal with the drama she fucking created herself with all the comments in reaction to her shit posting videos. She doesn't know how to determine through lack of intellect and/or judgement that posting "I'm sick, have cysts, and I have PE and walked through a comicon while insulting people wearing 'costumes' because I'm socially awkward, and I keep promising to follow a way of eating that I can't even convince myself through obsessive posting on IG as to how to eat though I choose to ignore a diet proven to help millions lose weight because I'm an ignorant fuck".
The trigger was her wearing a fucking moo-moo night gown in a 6x which basically is admitting at at 35 she's wearing a moo-moo housecoat like 86 year old women wear, and with no bra, no panties so she can gain more weight and still comfortable though in a guise of "I'm sick and need to rest because I'm ill". Then attempts to involve herself eating her Gardein brand tofu sesame "chicken" which if you need to make a diet of 'fake food' is already an indicator you're going to have a rough time.... and bashes on Nickado and then deletes, then and elaborates on bullshit YouTube Mukbang drama... indicates to me she's trying to figure out her re-branding.
She's admitted after people like myself telling her what a portion size is and until she finally measured food, did she realize she was eating up to four times a regulated portion. Be it meat size of what a 6 to 8 ounce is, or what 2 tablespoons of dressing actually is.
The whole "Confession" or "owning a lie" as she's now in a compulsive cycle on steroids now with the re-titles, that she's truly trying to be a reaction video then the same night after admitting "hey guys I'm not really plant based" as if we didn't know.
She keeps saying she's not condescending. Yet we keep telling her that her 'matter of a fact in a "mansplaining shit" of snake oil and other basic shit most people in one Google can debunk is astounding. She's truly intellectually challenged. .She pushes back because she fails to be aware of how other people simply behave. She's isolated. She lacks basic social skills when she does go out. The only accomplishment she's had since 2017 is having 55K people that mostly hate or intrigue watch her on YouTube.
She admits to lacking structure and a routine in her normal life. She knows she's inconsistent and her apologies for for her flipping back and forth has lost it's genuineness because it's every other fucking day. "I'm sick... and I'm hurt.. and I'm in the hospital though I'm on live stream TEE HEE!"
If she did or does go to the ER for psych I'd believe she has a change since her last video was "I feel hopeless" which seems likes she's practicing her script to get admitted into a controlled environment. Her issue isn't binge eating, or overeating in itself. She has compulsive disorders which causes her to be addicted to IG when she's off YouTube. Why she needed to surround herself with animal friendly videos, pics to remain plant based. Why she can't stop herself from reading and reacting to YouTube Comments or even posting shit videos, then deleting them after disabling comments.
The biggest "joke" about her is that she claims she needs and loves food but her grocery shopping video proved she doesn't even know how to pick produce which explains why she eats food from take out so much. As someone who loves food - I like to learn how to pick, cook, and eat food. She just likes to use food as a sort of outlet. Diets to her are a punishment and somehow she's associated eating healthy is a punishment and her comfort food while is usually "Bad" for us (mac and cheese), Chantal for whatever reason, has to have comfort food as her normal food. which is why she eats like shit.
The TLDR of this: Chantal is a fucking lasagna of all sorts of fucked up be it intellectually, emotionally, maturely, and educationally. I do hope she gets help but I'm not so sure there's anything that can be done since she creates about 90% of her own problems. This forum being an example.. when you disable comments on YouTube, continue to make shit decisions and it's a pattern, people like me are going to post shit like this on forums like this.
