I think her issue was that by @intuitive eating@ she was really eating a surplus of calories which is why she gained weight
Perhaps that's the problem. A lot of people take intuitive eating to mean that it's okay to just binge on any kind of foods, same with people who'll binge on unhealthy foods under the guise that it "fits their macros". Overall no matter what type of diet or eating habit you want to partake in, balance will always be key, but most importantly, to just consume more fruits and veggies, something that a lot of these fitspos struggle with, which just boggles my mind to no end.

Yup. These fitspos are still young and don't think about longevity. You can't keep shoving down Kodiak cakes and PEScience ice cream (because protein!!) when you're 50 years old and doing IIFYM bullshit.

I think her problem is living with Myles who obv doesn't give a shit about what he's eating.
Sidebar how ducking annoying is his narrative voice. He is so beyond not funny I can't get through her videos../ I cringe so hard whenever he speaks
I get second-hand embarrassment from watching Miles. If I was friends with him in real life I'd be too embarrassed to be seen in public with him. Don't know how Nikki does it whenever he tags along on her girls' nights.
His narrative voice was kinda funny the FIRST time he did it. But he does it almost every video and it's sooooo fucking old and annoying. I really can't stand him. He's better than CG but that isn't saying much.
Also would not watch a GOT live stream of hers. I like her but I want to watch my show without distractions.
And agree that Miles is likely the reason she's struggling with diet. Obviously she was lean when she lived with CG but she did pretty well with Sammy too. I think Miles encourages her to order takeout, cook unhealthy meals, have pizza night, etc. She probably tells him she's craving something and he tells her to have it if she wants it. It's a lot easier to have self control when you're by yourself or with a girl friend.
I don't understand how Nikki can stand to be with Miles 24/7!! He was funny and kinda endearing in the first few vlogs she showed him, where we only saw a few short clips. But in larger doses he is so obnoxious. Like he's always "on", always trying to be funny (key word: trying) and always making the same jokes in the same voices. Nikki seems so much more chill, idk how she's not super annoyed.
Miles is so annoying. I can't even stand hearing his voice for a minute. He just sounds so stupid and immature, and Nikki doesn't seem nearly as amused with him as she used to be. Also, didn't she always emphasize that she wanted a MAN, and how childish CG was? She's literally dating the most loser immature dude she could've gotten.
Also, boring ass vlog. Walking around her drab apartment and then a little gym session. Lame. She should stick to a vlog a week or so, but actually consider planning a day of activities for when she vlogs. I don't know why so many people were on her ass about uploading more when she really doesn't have anything going on. Quality>Quantity
Can't even watch a vlog of hers anymore because of Miles. I've never been one to complain about significant others but he takes up at least a third of EVERY SINGLE UPLOAD and I can't. I just can't. It's really sad because Nikki's vids always got me through cardio and made me want to push harder, even if her lifestyle was never relatable to mine (nearly 10 years older, 2 kids, work full time). Now it's nothing but lazing around, awkwardly laughing at Miles, and butt work outs. Again, he is fcking annoying and I can't wait for her to show him less and less.
That being said, I do not think she will be the one to end it. She seems the type to stay with someone until someone new comes along *coughlikeCG*

I thought that but I wonder if she was just covering it up in previous clips from mornings without make up.
I'd say so because it seemed to be a lot better then came back with a vengeance otherwise haha. I wonder what foundation she uses to cover it up if that's the case

I sincerely hope she does read here. Most of the people who post here are actual fans (or used to be) of Nikki and just want to give constructive feedback without getting crucified. Miles isn't putting any value into your vlogs, Nikki. I'd say he's actually hurting their productivity. Maybe she should start doing what Whitney does - not so much of vlogging, but more of planned sessions.
I don't think she cares about her old fans anymore because she doesn't want to be reminded of her old life with CG. Whenever someone comments about why she's not doing fitness anymore she always replies back with a passive aggressive comments "go watch other channels!" or "that's not my life anymore". She has gained a new breed of fans within the last year who love her random shenanigans and do not know how she used to be like before, and they love her no matter what with their kiss ass comments.

Well if fitness isn't her life anymore, then she should drop her Gymshark sponsor and clothing line. But of course that would mean having to take a dip in her income until she could find some other niche to profit off of and reflect her brand, whatever that is. The lazy fitspo lifestyle is not appealing at all, which is why I pretty much stopped watching her videos.
I'm SO TORN on nikki. I really liked her. I truly don't care about her existence in parallel to CG. He's a douche. We've all been in a position where we've dated someone for braun not brain. I guess the thing that has bummed me out is that she's just not really doing much of anything worthwhile. If I had time, money and resource in the way she does, I would hope I would become more motivated to improve my life and better myself as a person.
CG was a douche, there's not really any denying that I think. But Miles is a different kind of douche. His music is very, very cringe solely on lyrics alone. He's not really successful at it, which is fine, but his ego and arrogance should at least be accompanied by some form of success to back it. His type of commentary on her is so degrading and demeaning. I get it, Nikki is beautiful and has a banging body, but seriously, that's all he ever talks about in regards to her. I think she really puts herself in this position of just being a barbie type because that's how people treat her. She actually seems pretty intelligent and informed, but it's almost like it's easier to just present herself as a body, not a brain. She is constantly liking tweets about current events, books, etc - I would LOVE if she'd talk about that. I'd love to see more of her interactions with her friends like jaz and ashley. I think she truly seems like a cool person who has just relegated herself to being a hot body or fitness figure and not really much else.
I think that comes a lot from dating sort of conventionally attractive, rather small minded boys. There's not really much denying that BB is pretty vapid/stupid, and I would argue Miles is relatively the same. I wish she'd surround herself more with people who are passionate, motivated.
I don't even give a damn about the fitness content as I do love Q&A's, informational videos, day to day vlogs, etc, but in order to be successful, it's so important to present substantive content that isn't just watergun fights. We are so heavily influenced by who we surround ourselves with, there is no doubt, and I just wish Nikki would find people that treated her as more than just a cute blonde with a big ass.

That's what annoys me the most is regarding her Gymshark sponsorship. She still profits from "fitness" yet she half asses it so she doesn't get dropped. But then again we've mentioned this before, Gymshark doesn't give a shit about fitness really, it's all about how many followers you have. They won't drop her anytime soon even with her boring ass vlogs and random shenanigans.

Why would she get rid of Gymshark if they are happy with her and where her channel is? Thought it had been established that it's more of a lifestyle brand than for athletes, otherwise they'd be sponsoring proper athletes and not Youtubers.
I don't think miles has an ego or arrogant. Think he just has a dry sense of humour but I get he can be annoying when he's OTT. I'd like it if she had more vlogs with people like that Monica Church or other Youtubers in her building. Her having a boyfriend has put a stop to all that exploring and getting out of her comfort zone.
Nah Miles doesn't have a dry sense of humor, he's just annoying as fuck and doesn't know when to shut up. I agree she needs to get out of her comfort zone, trying new things, and have a clear structure of what her YT channel is all about, because right now it's just a jumbled mess.
What ever happened to that writing class by the way?
