8:44 This! I think this is why I prefer the Mediterranean Diet. Protein is definitely important, and I make sure to eat enough protein being over 50. But I notice a difference when I don’t have enough healthy fats and the Mediterranean Diest makes that easier for me to incorporate them into my diet.
“Al dante” had me rolling, I’m picturing the circles of hell full of perfectly cooked pasta
My Italian mom would have been cringing lol. But love the content none the less
Too many chillies would turn pasta into Inferno 😆😆🤣
@@annawitter5161 hahaha true
Haha it’s where you go when you overcook pasta.
Al dante’s peak.
Mustard is better than mayo and that’s a hill I’m willing to die on 😂
If you okay dying alone on that hill then fine, 😂
1000000000000%
I’m on that hill with you! Trader joes white wine dijon mustard is amazing
I love mustard. 😊
absolutely. mustard is LIFE.
Haha I always eat a veggie plate before dinner because I am hungry and don’t want to wait for it to be done to start eating. 😂
Would it be possible for a future video on how to gain lean muscle mass while losing fat? There’s so much conflicting information online that its difficult to know what to eat or drink. Thank you.
i agreeee
I would also love some info on this! It’s so hard for me to get enough protein without eating meat all the time. I’m not strictly a vegetarian but I just…. don’t like meat that much.
@@alxndria1 Meat is also incredibly expensive in both monetary and calories if you have to get the cheaper cuts that are not lean.
I like adding cauliflower rice to my regular white rice. I could never make the switch to brown rice because I just hated the flavor, and couldn’t fully switch to cauliflower because I hated the texture. This has been a great compromise.
love this!!
Yesss I love doing this too!
Loved this! Would also love to see more content on lowering insulin resistance PCOS using food ♡
This was helpful, especially the veggies before dinner. Will definitely do this!
I know you’re not all about weight loss but thanks for meeting some of us where we’re at and offering up some good suggestions. A lot of food for thought for sure!
i switched from low fat greek yogurt to full fat and I will NEEEVVVEERRR go back
agreeed
I diet for life but I’ll never switch to low fat yogurt! It’s just so gross and unsatisfying for me, I love greek and turkish yogurt <3
Girl, next step is to make your own yogurt! You can do it in a Dutch oven or a crockpot. It’s not hard at all and it is SO GDAMN GOOD! I use the recipe on the daring gourmet and mannnn. It’s literally just milk but tastes like dessert.
@@rachaelerin1 Do you have a link to the recipe maybe? I’m interested 🙂
@@TaMarAaQ enjoy! I use flour sack cloth instead of cheesecloth because then I can wash and reuse it but whatever works for you is what you should go with!
It seems like if other people did some of these things in a “what I eat in a day”, they would be critiqued on them. The line between trying to lose weight and disordered eating is quite thin.
it absolutely can be. and that’s why intention is key. are you applying some of these gentle tweaks from a place of self care or self restriction? Thats why i say, not all of which would be right for everyone. For example, if you love mayo, dont do the mustard hack. just as i said! take what works for you and leave the rest
@@AbbeysKitchen Thank you for calling this out. I like to take a moment to remind myself why I am trying to eat healthier and select foods that work for my body – so it can perform its best and so I have energy. When we set the right intention, it emphasizes the positive aspect of the changes. Love your content!
I used to hate breakfast, and slowly I started convincing myself to have toast first before coffee (just because coffee fills me up, then I had no interest in eating) but now I’ve gotten to a point where I enjoy having eggs a few times a week (with toast and some kind of fruit, and maybe even nut butter) or I’ll have a yogurt bowl with fruit nuts and seeds. I still have my coffee, I just wait until I’m at least half done breakfast. Since I started this routine, I’ve lost 10 lbs! I haven’t changed anything else in my diet, just that. I have so much more energy now
Dude yes! I went through the same process of forcing myself to be a breakfast person. Then I randomly stopped eating breakfast to try to lower my caloric intake and I actually gained 10 pounds and was tired every single day. As corny as it sounds, breakfast is everything.
You should try some South Indian breakfast recipes like Idli, dosa, Upma, etc. They’re a bit carb heavy but there are some recipes which use sub more protein rich ingredients. I prefer savoury’s breakfast over sweet ones.😊
I love your videos because you are very realistic, honest and understanding.
The idea of a warm tomato and spinach smoothie before each meal is simultaneously intriguing and repulsive… better call it soup! 😹
The candy one made me LOL, because I literally eat twice as much if they’re bite sized. I can’t monitor at all. Candy bowl at work – always grab a piece. I have a regular sized bar of chocolate in my cupboard I only eat on Saturdays, two squares at a time. I love to run counter to logic.
Eating or drinking protein in the morning reallly works for me. The hunger is lower the whole day. Love your videos!❤
I am not a mayo girlie either – I swapped it out for half an avocado mashed up in tuna salad and it is SO good.
Thanks for this, Abbey! I didn’t know all of the tips, very helpful like always ❤
Another hack is sharing with someone (partner, sibling, parent, etc.) This means you get to eat more of the foods you love without feeling like you can’t have certain things. My husband and I will eat half of a single item (especially dessert) and this means you only consume half the calories, sugar and fat and you can’t be tempted to finish the whole thing because there is none left! We do this with things like Crumbl cookies, sit down restaurant desserts and candy! Yesterday we split a regular bag of peanut M&Ms and that meant there were only 125 calories per person and they do have a small amount of protein and fiber vs some other types of candy 🙂 Not too bad!
