Curious about her obsession with diet and exercise - she goes to boot camp everyday, has a PT, eats lean / healthy mostly. I know she has blow outs at Xmas / birthdays but don't we all ... but she's always complaining about her weight ?

If she's doing what she says she's doing she'd still be pretty fit and lean even after a few weeks off.
Maybe it's the alcohol ??

90% of weight loss is diet, not exercise, and I don't think she's totally transparent about her intake. She drinks more than she lets on, and she probably snacks more than she lets on. Her binges are not infrequent and they're pretty hardcore.

The first blog back where she told us she really is absolutely fine worried me. When I was dumped by my boyfriend I was really depressed for years. Helen’s HUSBAND has left, out of the blue, after 3 months. If she had really loved him she would be in fucking bits. And that is ok. Losing someone you love is debilitating. I don’t believe she ever really loved him. He was just something else to own. Bearded hipster husband. Tick.

Maybe something just to think about, because I know this is how I view it having gone through something similar.
Years ago I loved someone really really hard, first proper love and I was very like Helen, buying him my affection because I just didn’t get from him emotionally what I should have. It was an extremely abusive relationship both physically and emotionally but, and this is key, the emotional side to me was done over a way longer period of time and was definitely in the end, more wearing on me than they physical ever was. And that’s not to take away from physical violence because it is harmful to your mental health too, but when that relationship ended, believe me I was actually broken hearted because emotionally I had invested so much and I did still feel love for him.
But at the same time I felt such a massive relief that I was able to pick myself up faaaaiiirrlly quickly (although it took me over a year before I could even think about going on a date again) but the point I’m making is, sometimes, even when you’re broken hearted, if it’s been emotionally wearing, the relief that you feel can be enough to boost you. I don’t believe she’s feeling as amazing as she says she does but I do think she’s feeling more positive. And I think especially because he left her, it took the decision out of her hands and she’s had no choice but to feel relieved because she didn’t have to fight for it. Just my two cents.
Helen really fucks me off with a lot of things she does, I also really like a lot of her content and personality but I’ve deliberately not bashed her being upbeat because you really can feel a bit more positive once you’re out of that negative space, whether you made the decision or someone else made it for you.

I agree, my last relationship was really emotionally abusive and made my depressed, and when they left me I was a mess for a few days before I realised every bad thing they'd done to me and I was suddenly better then I was pre-breakup.

It really stood out to me that she said 12 weeks was a long time to eat healthy!?

I really don't think a lot of these clean eating lifestyle regimes are realistic. You can eat healthy most of the time and still have treats and go out. There is a middle ground. Yo yo dieting is no way to live.

12 weeks? It should be a lifestyle with the occasional treat here and there

Totally. You have put your finger on it! The main emotion I think we are getting from Helen is relief!!

But what IS helens style? I used to think she had something glam-rock about her and she kept a consistent aesthetic, but what?

In her video where she says how she's not depressed and for us not to worry about her,

my boyfriend could hear her talking in the background and just asked
"who is that girl because anyone who says they are fine that many times isn't fine"

Couldn't agree more. I used to love Helen, her style and her videos. Videos like this: Travelling Style Diary from a couple years ago were brilliant! I really miss the old Helen.

I think it's fair to say most Youtubers let "fame" and money get to their heads and Helen is no exception. I think she's become quite insufferable, so I've unsubscribed for a while, but check back once in a while. Can't get past the first few minutes of a video, because of how annoying I find her!

I can't imagine what she's going through, so I'll give her credit for continuing doing her work and uploading videos while going through a heartbreak (even though she says everything's ok). There are so many Youtubers who are constantly coming up with ridiculous excuses to not do their job! But her constantly saying she's ok, bla bla bla gets under my skin! For her to be ok, she'd have to not have any feelings towards him, so what was actually the point in getting married?! Or she did have feelings for him, but pretends everything's ok and that she feels great and will continue with it so everybody continues praising her over how brave she is. She's only human and it's ok if she lets her guards down! I mean, he took Barney, surely she misses him and it would be ok if she said so! Arrgghh, she really annoys me and I'm definitely not subscribing again.

Regarding her style, she looks like a confused teenager, except she's not! She's probably going through an existential crisis tbh!
