We Thought This Was Healthy - Here's Why We Stopped (Our Diets Changed.)

The video features Emmie, the creator behind Healthy Emmie, explaining why she and perhaps others in her community changed their dieting habits and ultimately chose to stop following whatever diet routines they had before. It’s a personal-style wellness video where she shares insights about her own experiences with diet, what she learned along the way through trying different approaches, and why she now favors a different way of eating—likely grounded in the plant-based and holistic nutrition approach she’s known for advocating on her channel.

Rather than being a strict instructional or scientific lecture, the video aims to be relatable and motivational, mixing personal reflections with health and lifestyle commentary, giving viewers a picture of her journey toward more sustainable, balanced eating habits and the reasoning behind stepping away from traditional dieting.
