(2of2)Mail Order Netflix: January 8-11, 2014
The next day’s weigh in isn’t what she was hoping to see so she decides it’s time to put a hold on the weigh ins for a couple days because there is no way she could gain weight 3 days in a row. She almost didn’t make a weigh in video to avoid sharing the weight gain. She wishes her amazing accomplishment of not eating what she wanted the day prior would have shown on the scale. When the numbers go up, the motivation to eat well goes out the window and eating bars in the bedroom seems to be how Amberlynn deals with it instead of a healthy breakfast in the kitchen. With Krystle’s parents out of the house on a Friday night, and still feeling the lack of motivation from the weigh in, Amberlynn shares that she just wants to eat and eat. She keeps complaining that their dog Monkey is disrupting her vlogging with his drinking and chewing. She decided to make her vlog a two parter on the 10th and ends her first part showing us her Netflix order they received in the mail. After the movie they give a review then shows us what’s for dinner. Before ending the vlog for the day, Monkey politely asks for a bite of Amberlynn’s evening cookie. The next day, she shows us her morning body sprays and shares that she has had seven thousand views on her videos and 135 subscribers to her channel. She had a suggestion from viewers to journal or exercise when feeling overwhelmed with counting calories. Amberlynn is proud of saying no to ordering a meal out and instead making food at home. She says she beat up the B monster and won. Before going to the grocery store later in the evening, Amberlynn films a video of herself getting ready to leave the house. They decide to do some journaling when they return but before they do, Krystle interrupts the vlogging process when she decides to wash her hands in the kitchen while Amberlynn is recording.

00:00Hello everybody, so here I am with my January 10th weigh-in.
00:07So yesterday was kind of hard for me because yesterday was the first day this month that
00:14I honestly felt like I just wanted to eat and eat and eat and eat and eat, but I did
00:20not do it.
00:21I had so much willpower and I'm very very proud of myself.
00:26I have to be honest, I wish it would have shown on the scale because my weigh-in today
00:34was absolutely horrible.
00:38I want to tell you guys right now, my weigh-in does not reflect on how I did yesterday because
00:45I did perfectly, I didn't go over my calories or anything like that.
00:50So I honestly cannot justify my weigh-in besides, here is my first crazy crazy weight
00:59fluctuation that I don't understand.
01:03My girlfriend doesn't understand it.
01:05I find it to be a really big fluctuation that I, it makes it, honestly I'm upset about it.
01:15I really truly am.
01:16So let me just give you my weigh-in real quick.
01:20So yesterday I was 367.2, today I was 368.6, so that's up 1.4, up 1.4.
01:30I mean, I would understand if I messed up yesterday or I ate over my calories, but I
01:37didn't.
01:39So I'm confused, I mean, I understand every single day we're gonna have, you know, fluctuations
01:47of some sort, but 1.4 seems a little drastic for one day, so I'm very shocked.
01:55I'm actually really sad, but, you know, I'm hoping my next weigh-in will be better.
02:02Yeah, so it's just very sad to see.
02:05Anyways, I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but I gotta be honest, this is my weigh-in
02:12and I'm gonna be sad and I'm sad right now.
02:17But that means my total loss is 51.4 and that means I have 68.8 pounds to go before I get
02:26to 299.8.
02:28So I have decided that I am not going to weigh-in tomorrow and I'm not gonna weigh-in on Sunday
02:37because clearly I'm at like a weird fluctuation time right now and I feel like if I gain tomorrow
02:46too, I'm gonna be devastated and I feel like there's no way I can gain 3 days in a row,
02:53so if I weigh-in on Monday, I might see, you know, a drop.
03:00So that is what I'm gonna do.
03:01I'm gonna weigh-in Monday, so that's gonna be when my next weigh-in video goes up and
03:07I am hoping more than anything that I lose this 1.4 plus more.
03:13I know that's a lot to ask, but it's really not for somebody my weight.
03:18So I am hoping I'm down like 2 pounds or maybe more.
03:24But anyways, I just, when I saw that I was up 1.4, I was shocked, I was sad, I re-stepped
03:32on the scale hoping it was a mistake and it wasn't and my first thought was I am not making
03:40a video, I am not telling people that I gained 1.4 in one day for no reason at all.
03:47But I promised you guys every time I weigh-in I'll make a video, so here I am.
03:53Here's the truth.
03:58It's hard to face.
03:59I feel like if I messed up yesterday and enjoyed myself and ate whatever I wanted, then okay,
04:051.4, I'm glad it wasn't more.
04:08But the fact that I had a very hard day yesterday and I wanted to eat everything and I didn't,
04:16I just wish that amazing accomplishment would have shown on the scale.
04:22I'm sure you guys can understand that.
04:24But I'm just hoping my next weigh-in is better and I'm so proud of myself because sometimes
04:31it's not what the scale says, it's what your heart says and my heart is proud.
04:36So I'm going to leave you guys with that and I hope if you guys had a weigh-in today,
04:40I hope it went well and I will see you guys on Monday for my next weigh-in video.
04:48And if you aren't smiling, smile.
04:50Bye.
04:57So these are my perfumes for today.
04:58I'm going to use a Parisienne Charm by Calgone and a Headturner Body Spray.
05:09I got these both from either Walmart or Target.
05:12I feel like Walmart.
05:13So I don't know if you guys remember this, but I ordered a purse online with like a cat
05:19face on it.
05:20My girlfriend told me I could choose something online to get that was, you know, cheap-ish.
05:25I got this from eBay.
05:26I cannot wait for it to come in.
05:28It's like a black purse with a cat face.
05:30It's so precious.
05:31And for some reason, the order didn't go through.
05:35The seller wanted me to decline my transaction or something like that.
05:41So I don't know what that had to do with.
05:43So instead, I bought this.
05:45It's a thousand character writing prompts.
05:48I looked in the back and there's actually a thousand twenty.
05:52I mean, it's just filled with...
05:55It's kind of like a scenario and then there's like a question, if that makes sense.
06:01I could just flip to a random one and read it to you guys real quick.
06:04Okay, here we go.
06:07He wasn't the kind of person who built things up.
06:08He was a destroyer of walls, furniture, windows, and anything else that needed breaking.
06:12He took a certain pride in swinging his hammer as if he was Thor or something.
06:15His peers warned employers not to get on his bad side, but in reality, he was more of a
06:19jokester than a hothead.
06:20He just happened to be good at turning things into rubble.
06:23He loved pretending to be a scary dude to someone he never met, before slapping the
06:26person on the back and laughing uproariously.
06:29How did he get into such a destructive, enjoyable line of work?
06:31I mean, some can be boring.
06:33Some can be fun.
06:34I mean, that one's kind of entertaining.
06:35But it's mainly for you to like, if you want to like write a story and you don't know like
06:42a story to write, you just kind of flip in this and you'll find something.
06:47But me and my girlfriend are gonna use it for where they do each and every single one
06:50and we're going to read the paragraph and then answer the question in a notebook.
06:57We're probably gonna buy our notebooks tomorrow at the store.
06:59I'm really excited.
07:00I don't know if you guys know this about me, but I have a really big passion for writing.
07:07It's actually something I know I'm good at.
07:10Everyone who's ever read my writing has been like amazed and pretty much shocked because
07:17on the outside, I don't seem like a very smart person.
07:20So someone on Instagram just sent me a, I guess a Stanford IQ test.
07:26I had to take it.
07:29I actually got high average to gifted, look.
07:34Your IQ is between 118 to 134.
07:37High average to gifted.
07:39And that's what it says.
07:40I am not ranting and raving about this.
07:43I just thought it was super funny.
07:44Yeah, this is like a Stanford test, I guess.
07:47I don't know.
07:48It's not that good, so.
07:49I don't understand.
07:50It's not that good, but it says high average to gifted.
07:53How?
07:54How is that gifted?
07:55It's not even that good.
07:56But I am smart when it comes to writing.
07:58I enjoy it.
07:59I love it.
08:00And it's just something I've been passionate about literally since the age of three.
08:05Like I'm not even joking.
08:07But I just wanted to show you guys.
08:09This is what I got in the mail today and I got it off of Amazon.
08:13It was like $12.
08:15So if you like to rate, I definitely recommend this because I'm going to have so much fun
08:19with this.
08:20You have no idea.
08:21Breakfast for today.
08:24I was going to have something else, but I did my weigh-in today and that went horrible.
08:33I don't know how.
08:34I don't know why.
08:35I'm very upset.
08:36You guys should watch my weigh-in because that should already be up.
08:41And I just feel so mopey right now.
08:43I didn't even want to go downstairs.
08:46These are in our bedroom.
08:47So this is what I'm having.
08:49So last night after I binge read, I finally moved on to my next book.
08:57It's the Mad About the Boy by Bridget Jones or Bridget Jones Mad About the Boy by Helen
09:03Fielding.
09:04Sorry about that.
09:05Yeah.
09:06The reason why the cover is not on is because I take it off because it's easier to read
09:09like so.
09:10But I'm just so happy I'm finally on.
09:14This book.
09:17It's very different.
09:18You can tell it's from a different country because they do not use the word I.
09:23They spell mom like M-U-M.
09:27So it's different and I'm going to have to get used to it, but so far I like it.
09:32It is such a gloomy and wet day outside, but I absolutely love it in the winter.
09:39It's just so...
09:41I find it so pretty when it rains and it's soothing and it's calming, but this isn't
09:47so calming.
09:48Monkey, drink of water when I'm filming.
09:53Everyone can hear that.
09:54So I'm sitting downstairs and I'm about to have lunch and I'm just feeling very unmotivated
10:02today mainly because my weigh-in went horrible.
10:08It's a Friday night, Crystal's parents aren't here today.
10:12They went out to go to some party thing, I don't even know.
10:17And I'm just feeling so unmotivated and I literally just want to eat and eat.
10:28And I just, I don't know what to do.
10:30If you hear a chewing noise while I'm talking, that would be that right there.
10:37I really hate feeling like this and I don't know what to do.
10:44I figured filming this as part of my vlog will help me kind of think before I do because
10:57I tend to be very robotic when I mess up on my diet and when I binge and stuff.
11:04So I'm trying to like, instead of being so robotic, I'm trying to live in the moment
11:11and I'm like recording myself feeling like the urge to just eat and eat and eat.
11:19So I just need to take a deep breath and know I can do this.
11:24I mean I can do this.
11:25I can have willpower and I really want to go to bed tonight proud of not giving in and
11:34I really want to wake up tomorrow proud of, you know, the day before.
11:39That's just what I want.
11:40Really, really bad.
11:41I don't know how to describe her legs.
11:42They were legs.
11:43Ringo's, what are you doing?
11:44What are you doing babies?
11:55I felt a weird sensation.
11:58Right now I'm like, my legs are up on the table with my blankie that I have, yes, every
12:03single minute of my life.
12:05And I felt something strange like underneath here.
12:08I figured it was a cat.
12:11Charlie's right there, sleeping.
12:14Monkey's chewing and Smokey's staring at me.
12:18So I figured it was Ringo.
12:19I just wanted to see her.
12:22What are you doing?
12:43Sing box.
12:44You're going to sing?
12:45What are you doing in here?
12:46What are you doing?
12:47Oh, I love you too.
12:48I love you so much.
12:49Yes I do.
12:50Yes I do.
12:51Oh, you don't want me to go.
12:52You don't want me to go.
12:53Krystal's holding Ringo.
12:54She's waving.
12:55So I'm currently outside in the pitch black, the freezing weather, walking down these steps.
13:11Oh, shoot.
13:13My phone's getting wet.
13:15So what I was saying before I was really interrupted by the rain was that I was going
13:20down our big hill in the pitch black and the freezing cold and in the rain just to get
13:29our new Netflix.
13:30So I'm going to open it up and we're going to let you guys know what it is.
13:33Okay.
13:34So after that adventure, I am back upstairs and what?
13:39So we're about to open the Netflix.
13:41I have my girlfriend open it.
13:43We can do it now because I fail at it and I like botch it up every time.
13:47So I just have her do it.
13:49But about our Netflix, we literally have like 300 movies, like pending to be sent to us.
13:59We get three movies a month, which is what, $15?
14:05Three movies a month.
14:06I didn't mean to say that.
14:07Three movies a time for $15 a month, which is totally worth it.
14:14So you can send them back whenever.
14:16You can send them one at a time, two at a time, three at a time.
14:20It doesn't even matter.
14:21We haven't sent ours back for the stone ages.
14:25So we finally did and we have no idea what's in here and it's like exciting.
14:29I don't know why.
14:30So here we go.
14:31And I just want to tell you, on our Netflix, when we add stuff, like literally sometimes
14:37we do like random stuff and we have like no idea if we'll actually like it or not.
14:42So it's fun though.
14:43Okay.
14:44So I have no idea what this is.
14:46It's called seven below.
14:48So I guess I'll tell you what it's about.
14:50After a bus accident leaves them stranded, a group of strangers must ride out a storm
14:53in a foreboding house with a frightening history.
14:56A century earlier, a 10 year old boy brutally murdered his family there.
14:59Rated R, one hour and 30 minutes and made in 2012.
15:02Like, are you willing to watch that when your parents aren't here?
15:05Yeah.
15:06Well, next I have you.
15:07If I was by myself, I'd learn not to do that.
15:11So that shiznit sounds scary and we're home alone and yeah, that's scary.
15:19We don't even remember who added that to our Netflix cause it's one of us who did probably
15:25me cause I add a lot, but it sounds scary.
15:28Oh, okay.
15:29Now that we see like the CD part, I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover,
15:35but that looks kind of lame.
15:39It looks like action.
15:42I don't like action.
15:43But anyways, I don't know if we're going to watch it tonight since we're home alone, but
15:49I'm sure we will just so we can send it back and get another one.
15:52It's fun to do so, but um, I guess I could let you guys know how it was.
15:58I told you guys before that I was going to, um, randomly tell you what things we get back
16:04in Netflix and stuff, but I don't think I'm going to do a review on it every single time
16:07cause I'm sure I'm going to forget, but since I'm talking about it, I guess I'll tell you
16:14how it is.
16:15So I guess we're going to watch it.
16:16Are we going to watch it?
16:17Are you scared?
16:19She said, yes, we're going to watch it and no, she's not scared, but I'm sure she will
16:22be.
16:23So, so my girlfriend's putting the movie on right now and she looks at me and goes, do
16:28you want to turn off the light?
16:30Tsk.
16:31Tsk.
16:32Tsk.
16:33Tsk.
16:34No, I do not.
16:35So if you guys want to see the, like, literally it's probably going to be like a 20 second
16:39review of this movie and the rest of my night, whatever that holds.
16:43Watch my second part to this video.
16:46So this is me outside while I'm still in the garage.
16:50See, I had to take my dog out to go to the bathroom.
16:55So we had to pause the movie.
16:57That's what I'm doing.
17:00I love the rain.
17:01You guys can't see it, obviously, but I just love it so much.
17:06It's so like soothing, like when it's hot out, I hate it.
17:11Most people love it.
17:12But for me, I love the cold and the rain.
17:14Like that's what makes me happy.
17:31Oh, that was funny.
17:34So we just finished the movie and I'm going to be honest here.
17:41For most of it, I feel like I was like looking at the screen, but like my mind was drifting
17:47elsewhere.
17:48I don't know.
17:49I was kind of just like, I wouldn't say bored, but I don't know.
17:53It kind of was like, what the hell?
17:56And then towards the ending was a really big, like, what the hell?
18:00We were like confused.
18:01We were like, what?
18:05I don't even know.
18:06The ending was all right, I guess, but honestly, what's all that noise?
18:15I don't think, I honestly don't think I'd recommend this to somebody because that was
18:22kind of, yeah.
18:28So let's ask Krystal what she thought.
18:32Krystal?
18:33Shit, that's her diet soda.
18:36What'd you think?
18:37It's the only reason it's trash.
18:40Oh, what'd you think?
18:42Definitely stunk.
18:43It stunk?
18:44Why?
18:45I don't know.
18:46It just did.
18:47Well, say more, like say the sentence of what you thought.
18:56It stunk?
18:58You wanted to say something else?
19:01What was it?
19:02It wasn't scary.
19:03It wasn't scary?
19:04There were some scary parts.
19:05Don't lie.
19:06Don't, don't let her lie to you.
19:07I mean, they weren't like scary, scary, but I might have a tiny nightmare tonight.
19:16Monkey, that doesn't look very, um, appropriate.
19:30What is your face doing?
19:37What is your face doing?
19:43What is your face doing?
19:47Okay, then
19:50Monkey! Monks! Monks! Monkey! You're not gonna show that face you just did
20:07What is that face? Huh, Charlie? What is that?
20:13What is that?
20:16Why are you so weird, Monk?
20:20Why are you so weird?
20:23Dinner time! Dinner time! Let's go get dinner!
20:27So these are the butter beans that I am absolutely in love with
20:32they're seasoned butter beans and
20:35for the whole can is
20:38270 calories, but my girlfriend and I split it and honestly it is one of my favorite foods. I have never
20:47Tried any other brands, but the Margaret Holmes seasoned butter beans is
20:53To die for and I get it from Walmart. You guys should definitely try it
21:00So this is half of the butter beans. I'm using a small
21:07What's this called? Like a small little bowl
21:11So that's what they look like and they're delicious
21:14I'm also having a sandwich with
21:18Turkey and light
21:21skinny
21:22Cow cheese and a very small salad with feta cheese and the balsamic vinaigrette that I always talk about
21:29So all this calorie wise
21:32came out to under
21:35500 calories, I'm pretty sure I don't know the exact amount because it's on my fitness pile
21:40But so that's what I'm having for dinner, even though it looks like a lunch
21:58This is why
22:00Monkey was barking
22:02Cuz the Belvita that I'm having for a snack
22:07So I just wanted to end my vlog for the rest of the night I'll probably be
22:12uploading my videos
22:14Reading playing Grand Theft Auto, even though I don't really play I just drive around
22:19but um
22:21Tomorrow I might have to wake up early like super early. So we're going to the grocery store and they like to go early but
22:28Let's hope we don't have to go early. Crystal's over there saying mm-hmm. She doesn't like waking up early either
22:37Anyways, so I
22:40Mean, that's about it for tonight. So thank you guys for watching my vlog. It was two parts today
22:48Sometimes it's really short and sometimes it's really long. So I apologize, but that's just how it is
22:55So I'll see you guys tomorrow and if you're not smiling smile, bye
23:02Perfumes I'm going to use
23:05for the first portion of my day
23:08smart girl body mist and
23:11Victoria's Secret midnight exotics and the flavor is forbidden vanilla
23:16I cannot believe I'm not over 7,000 views and
23:21And 135 subscribers, thank you guys so much. It means a lot to me. So there's been a change of plans
23:30Instead of going to the store super early. We're going like late at night. So
23:36that's the plan and
23:39Right now I'm just you know sitting around
23:42I'm probably gonna
23:45Have lunch and then take a shower and get ready for the grocery store. So
23:51That's today. That's monkeys
23:54Mingo, what are you doing?
23:56That's monkeys
24:00What are you doing
24:02Oh
24:18So this is my lunch today
24:19It's carrots shredded chicken chickpeas and onion and there's literally like the tiniest bit of feta
24:27You wouldn't even be able to you can't really taste it. So but that's what that is
24:31I know it looks kind of like
24:34slop
24:36But it's really not it tastes really good and
24:40Yeah
24:41so for the people who watched my video yesterday when I was having a moment of weakness when I said I wanted to
24:47Just whatever I wanted
24:50um, I
24:51Just want to say that I didn't I had willpower I followed through I didn't eat over my calories
24:57Not a single not a single calorie. It was overeaten. I actually had over a hundred remaining. So I
25:05Didn't mess up. I forgot to say that in my video from yesterday
25:09But I just kind of wanted to make that clear because I did get a few comments. Um people suggested
25:16Suggested I should write because I enjoy writing when I feel like that. Do you have anything in mind for oh
25:23I'm in a bad mood. My depression is hitting hard. Yeah, I'm gonna do
25:27I can't eat. I can't stuff my face. What can I do about it? I think I'm gonna start drooling more
25:33Okay, I think whenever I feel like oh
25:36my god, everybody like just looking at them makes me want to
25:41Eat a hamburger. I feel like I'm just gonna like go my own
25:46Conclusion and I feel like I make you feel that way a lot. No, no. Oh my god. No, that's depressing
25:52Which is completely true. I should
25:56I've been lacking on my writing lately
25:58So I definitely should write more especially when I feel like I'm about to mess up on my diet
26:03I also got a suggestion that I should
26:07excuse me
26:09Exercise when I feel like I'm on a binge which is a great great great advice
26:15So I appreciate you guys for your advice. It means the world to me
26:20You're definitely right it was a new day and I am succeeding yet again
26:25my girlfriend's parents offered for us to
26:29Order something to eat and I knew exactly what that would be. That would be us
26:35Eating over a thousand calories in one sitting and then eating even more later on because it triggered us to mess up
26:42But we didn't do it
26:43we said no and I made our own food and I'm just proud of us and
26:47I cannot wait to step on the scale on Monday because a part of me feels like it might say something amazing. So
26:55Anyways, I just kind of wanted to say that but again, thank you guys for your suggestions
27:00to help me with my
27:03attack of the binge monster, which I
27:07Beat up that monster and I won. Hello everybody. So I decided to do something different
27:12So here's a little mini get ready with me video and I hope you enjoy
27:15I will be doing a very subtle makeup look today since it's pretty late and I am just going to the grocery store
27:22And I'm feeling kind of lazy

29:52I'll be wearing these red balls
29:55They will go with my red flats and this
29:59diamond bow ring
30:11Since I'm leaving the house, I will be switching from body spray to regular perfume
30:18This one is called inspiration and this one is called Paris love and I got them both at five below
30:25They might look expensive
30:27But they weren't they were both $5
30:30But they smell delicious
30:32As
30:43You can tell for the first time since I've been showing you my jewelry I do not have a necklace
30:51That's because I will be wearing a scarf because it's cold outside
30:57It is leopard or cheetah, I'm horrible with that either way it's adorable with some
31:03Silver studs on it and obviously this adorable purse
