I appreciate you so much Chef AJ! I saw you at the So Cal Veg Fest. I was waiting for someone and saw you...and called out to you. You were so kind and asked me to walk with you so we could talk more. I said I couldn't because I was was afraid that I wouldn't be there for the person I had been waiting for. I've regretted that ever since. The person never showed and I missed a great opportunity. You were the first TH-cam personality I had binge watched when I became vegan and didn't have any vegan friends. Thank you for all you've done and are doing! I appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share it.
Rational, level headed instruction. The truth never changes. Whole starch, low-fat plant exclusive eating free of sugar, oil, salt, flour & alcohol is the healthiest way a human being can eat.
AJ is such a great speaker I love listening to her
I reached my weight loss goal just by listening to her videos!
Before trying the Agoge diet, I tried the keto diet and many other diets but none worked. With the Agoge diet, I lost so much stubborn belly fat, finally getting that toned look.
Dean Ornish, wonderful man, he had to call it something else to be taken seriously by the medical fraternity, but the background to his work is yoga and yoga therapy. Wonderful to hear his name here. Thank you
You really radiate - you are indeed the very best example of healthy eating making you look so good and radiate beauty and energy and love of life - great work, super inspiring
I just love her arms!
thank you Chef AJ for your work and for WLW's!!! I've lost 22 lbs so far.
I just want you to know how much you inspire me! I am trying to process this way of living. I really feel better. I want your book. I went to the bookstore it wasn’t there. I am trying to get it online.i just want you to know, you are greatly appreciated. Ty. Ty. Ty!
You are a wealth of knowledge and a continual source of inspiration to us all, Chef AJ.
Thank you for all that you do. :)
WEIGHT LOSS WEDNESDAY Well I must've missed something....because I haven't a clue why they would be giving you a hard time! 🤔😑 You just keep being true to your authentic self! There are a multitude of us out here who are ever so grateful. 😊
I'm always looking forward to her educational videos about food, thank you vegsource
WEIGHT LOSS WEDNESDAY do u sell diet book
Thanks Chef AJ. The pictures really help explain the theory of calorie density. I never liked juicing, I am particular about texture and don't want to drink my food as long as I have teeth. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that doesn't want to juice everything to be healthy! When I'm older and don't have any teeth left I'll juice lol.
Thanks. Here is one with lots of visuals. th-cam.com/video/002pzXT9TT4/w-d-xo.html
It’s not a theory
You look terrific and always inspire with your easy to understand suggestions!
Thank you
Chef AJ , your my HERO !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you
This was so good, I learned so much and the presentation was superb. Thank you so much.
Vegetables every day, all day.
This is great news and valuable information. I'm so psyched!
Love this woman. What a success story!!!!!!! Check her out on Johnny Carson back in the day before she lost 150 pounds. She was hilarious.
Great video! Thanks 😀
WEIGHT LOSS WEDNESDAY
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly lost the password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Tate Martin Instablaster =)
eat! eat! eat ! as much as you can without having a n upset stomach
I, for the love of a God, cannot erase bread as one of my staple foods in this way of eating. Too bad, no one is perfect.
The King I eat barley bread and it is part of starch based diet of dr. John McDougall
I love listening to her because she is a hoot! I do not do well on starches so this is not for me. I am mostly vegetarian but starches do a number on me. I can do beans alone and I sprout them before cooking. Not all Asians are healthy. Some groups of Asians cook their veggies to death and eat fatty meat along with the rice. They get kidney diseases very early among other issues.
Great one
Okay…great *partial* presentation-where is the rest??
AJ's best, IMHO. Applause
Thank you
You are a great speaker once you slow it down a bit. Awesome video! !
I'm a vegetarian, not a vegan, but I'm incorporating your pineciles of eating the fruit or veg first..and spreading the word... :)
Chef AJ is a great speaker.
Thank you
Thank you for there feedback. I will make an effort to slow down.
Excellent upload.
☘️🌝🌲
Thank you so much Chef AJ. This was really helpful to me. I appreciate your work.
The sad thing is that the western diet of fast food is corrupting the Chinese diet. Soon we won't be able to point toward China and say look how much thinner they are. All I have to do is drive home, past all the fast food joints, to know why we are all fat. I only discovered these videos a week ago and I am making changes. Thank you.
The truly sad thing is our poor diets are killing all of us.
Fantastic video. Loved it. Thank you. 💚🌱👍
cheers for uploading :)
fiber also feeds the microbiome that is the healthy bacteria.. When you grow the good bacteria, you crave the food they want to eat.. The more nutrient dense food you eat, the less your food your body will crave since its getting all the nutrients it needs,
Great video! Thank you!😊
Putting this into practice is the hard part.
Who can afford to eat 7 to 10 pounds of food a day, a pound of food cost betweent 1.50, 2.00 and up. the exception is potatoes that is now climbing in price, around .80 where I live, so, if I ate a bag of 5 pounds of potatoes a day, that would be 4.00 a day, or 120.00 a month and that isn't including fruit and greens.
10 pounds of food(potatoes) is $8. per day, or 300.00 per month, not including high price greens, and fruits.
I don't know about the rest on fixed incomes, but I can't afford to eat 7-10 lbs per day
when my check is 800.00
I'm on a strict no money diet! That's what you're on when you get disability! I'm trying to figure out how to container grow on my never used back porch!?
Buy bulk grains and beans, scavenge fruit from city trees, start a garden, join a coop or a community garden. Try container gardening. Do you eat meat and dairy? Do you buy any beverages-soda, alcohol, juice?These cost way more than frozen veg. The other thing you can do, that is absolutely free, is walking. Aim to walk 5-6 miles a day. Do what you can. Work up to it.
Excuses before even trying?
I love chef aj but I agree with this. Who has the time, too? Just focus on eating whole plant foods like vegetables, fruits, beans legumes whole grain and make it somewhat low fat. Dont overeat. Exercise. See if that does it.
@@yolandaquimby3489 I'm using cardboard boxes for containers, also dollar store buckets, but, this year is cold and rains every day, so the only vegs thriving are the greens and peas, Tomatoes won't make it in this short growing season- buying more rice and potatoes and canned goods as can afford depending on sales.
You look so pretty in this dress:)
Thank you, enjoyed the speech
I have been teased my lunch box is a suitcase because I eat like this! I was commended by the doctor at my last D.O.T. physical, and told by her, I'm in one of the most unhealthy professions...truck drive.
You remind me of my mother that ate in bulk, she loved celery, carrots, etc, and she was teased about bringing her picnic basket to work. She never gained weight, slim all of her life.
Great chat! just an fyi, she has beans on her non-starchy veggie slide
***** there's a separate entry for long beans ***** but okay :)
There are dozens of varieties of green beans. Green beans are the most widely planted bean type. Green beans include the haricot vert, scarlet runner bean, winged, and yard-long bean. Snap beans are not always green. They can also be yellow or purple. Yellow snap beans are sometimes called wax beans for their waxy color.
These are all non starchy vegetables and do fit into this category... always some narcissist in the audience trying to make others feel bad about themselves by some perceived error in the presentation. If Chef Aj was talking about the starchy varieties of beans she would of put them on a different chart. Grow some manners and stop trying to project your lack of knowledge on others.
Potato Strong mayo
Chef AJ...you have to be president of America.. really you do...you speak from the heart your interesting and funny honest all the qualities to be a great go for it...I will vote for you 😁♥️
Ty for sharing why juicing is not good
she speaks so well and it looks like she happily practices what she preaches. i think eating chicken and salmon once in a while wouldn't be too bad
I'm excited about a short video. I can't commit to an hour every time I want to watch you. I love your ideas!! I want to look like you in a year or so. I'm tired of eating junk. Like most people I'm sugar addicted. I'm doing pretty good. Started my journey of whole food plant based eating.
I love pictures too. I'd rather watch someone show me something. Keep up the great videos just make some short for us ADHD people.
So true
If you would like to see this presentation in int's entirety I am giving it this week as a FREE webinar here: masteringdiabetes.mindfuldiabetic.com/webinarregistration
This is awesome!!
Kaylie Grac
this was a common sense speech, but then again durianrider wouldn't think so lol but she did a great job presenting. good video
And the secret to ultimate fast aging!!!
D*MN!!! You look great!!!!!! :) :) I miss weightloss wednesday.. will you be back next week?
Where’s the full presentation???
love! 😍
Hi AJ. I follow Dr Michael Gregor and Dr Neal Barnard and have turned to a plant based lifestyle. I have been watching you during the current pandemic and am grateful for the fabulous interviews you have brought to us. However, sometimes you confuse me! In this video you advise against blending or juicing kale. I agree. But, in the video I watched yesterday, you blended dates!! This I don’t get. Also, you talk about being intolerant to legumes and soy. You tell us what we should eat, but, what do you eat? I’m fascinated to know please. Purple sweet potato and broccoli are two foods I have heard you share on numerous occasions. What else? Sweet potato fries, albeit done in an air fryer, are high sugar but you dip them in non peanut, peanut sauce which you have blended with dates. Why is this not high sugar too? I understand that you don’t add sugar, but I don’t see how you are sugar free (SOS) or sugar free (SOFAS). Would you please make a video about what you choose to eat on a weekly basis. I have lived with someone who limited their food to very few whole foods and I came to see this as orthorexia. Please tell me you eat more than sweet potatoes and broccoli? In fact, please tell me that you eat more than vegetables? I feel inspired to improve my health with a plant based whole grain diet but I also see so much eating disordered behaviour coming out of this. Gregor rocks! I love the bones of this man. Sending you every good wish in these difficult times. Stay safe. P.S. I have lost over 12 stones in weight and am maintaining this by focusing on being plant baed and am in my fifth year at a healthy weight, usually around 128 lbs Jane xx
Eat a wfpb diet and dont get caught up on what someone else eats. Like so many others do...youre over thinking this. She eats simply due to food addictions. You do you!
Great video! But you didn't mention why blending is bad? Juicing removes the bulk, fibre etc but blending keeps all that in? Thanks
slowmocleo Reduces bulk which decreases satiety.
Dont know where the sound is on my machine so if you can explain to me how i hear her too. let me know will you? Gitel and pear widows.
Nice
Nice!!
Ohhh... this is what she really looks like without the filters
..
@Keekee Jenkins. Yes, Chef AJ is so lovely 🌹 isn't she? Natural beauty inside and out!!
This is an old video. She looks even greater now!
Are there lots of comparative images in the Volumetrics book as they are powerful?
Many thanks for sharing.
They are back and white drawings but you might like this th-cam.com/video/002pzXT9TT4/w-d-xo.html
Am I the only one who noticed that, in the China study, the rural Chinese ate MORE calories, but were trimmer and healthier?
That also has a LOT to do with your gut biome. Its been found that the gut microbiome of a person that eats a plant based diet absorbs less energy than a person who has a gut microbiome based on animal products.
PETER MAINWALD
What does absorption of energy by bacteria have to do with how many potential sources of energy I convert from their current state into body fat and store?
More active
Most of those calories were from rice, handmade noodles and vegetables. Rural Chinese usually did not have the money for meat or fish for daily consumption.
no your just the only one who bragged about knowing it lol.
Hi Chef AJ, I received an email in April offering the Raw Food Vegan Bundle. I ordered it on April 10th. Waited for an email. Nothing. I checked my credit card statement. It shows that the $49 was taken out on April 12th. I don't know why it didn't come out until 2 days past the day I ordered it. At any rate, I still don't have an email about downloading the bundle. I tried to send an email to the address at the bottom of ad, but it wouldn't send.
Where Can I buy one of those magnets
Usually on my website at www.EatUnprocessed.com, they should be back in stock room. I also have a little store here and want to add stuff with that graphic www.cafepress.com/chefaj
Eatunprocessed website you shared isn’t working. I’d like a magnet also. I don’t see the magnets on the cafepress website either.
Hi chef AJ! I have been blending zucchini and bananas and drinking my morning veggies, but I noticed you don’t recommend it. Do I not get all the fibre when blending the zucchini (vs juicing of course)? Just wondering
I been blending for 4months and I keep losing weight. I still believe there's fibre in blended fruit. You still can't overeat regardless of blending. You still will get the fibre and nutrients from it. I wouldn't juice as it removes the fibre. Keep doing what you doing, just keep the lifestyle up
She does not address people with a slow metabolic carb system
I am very hypothyroid
not eating calorie dense food slows your thyroid.coming from an hipothyroid who has cured his own disease? dr aj you my have an autoinmune disease.y
@Chef AJ where can I get one of the calorie density magnets you sell?
@@MsKatalind She answered in another comment.
so what do you do when you have no chew power due to loss of teeth at the age of 14?????'
Blend your food
CHEF AJ I can’t swallow either anything thicker than water food gets lodged because at age 65 a doctor destroyed my throat
@@barbd3488 So very sorry
@@barbd3488 If you cant chew or swallow what do you currently eat?
@@cheezheadz3928 very soft foods
Blending certain foods is fine. Blending greens is fine. You break down some of the fibre making it easier to digest greens by blending them. Even blending banana's is also fine. Certain foods like apples and oranges are bad to blend. Juicing greens is also fine, but greens and vegetables is the only food you should be juicing, this will allow people to get more nutrients without chewing for ages. Perfect for those whom are older and struggle with chewing. So it really depends on the circumstances. Blending is better then juicing as less fibre is lost.
To put it simply if blending greens with some bananas, is the only way you will eat a lot of greens, this is much healthier then not eating greens at all. :)
I actually like blenders, for certain smoothies, when done right, it's a lot easier then chewing for hours on end, and actually is healthy for people. Juicing greens can also get people lots of nutrients fast. But in the end it's better to eat your food whole, that is the healthiest way. But me personally I will always use my blender, as it's more efficient, and as long as I stick to food very high in fibre, breaking some fibre down isn't a problem.. :)
We're here for chef ajs advice not yours!
@@cheezheadz3928 Well you got my advice anyway. I have watched and learned from many people.
I would rather have more dense calories and eat less. I don’t want to eat and poop all day, that sounds exhausting.
It's actually really fun!
@@CHEFAJ LOL I couldn't help it. This made me laugh.
Okay, good bye!
Not to disparage the whole idea of volumetrics, which as she said is a well-established principle, but if most people eat 3-5 pounds of food, that's NOT the same amount. That's a vastly different amount. 5 pounds is about 66% more than 3 pounds. Also, bragging about eating all day isn't exactly encouraging. Who's got time to eat all day? I get 20 minutes for lunch, don't have an opportunity to snack, and I have to eat something higher in calories to get me through to dinner. Too simple.
You are not understanding this. People that eat 3 pounds always eat 3 pounds, etc.
I've ordered a potato pouch, you can make them also, videos are on TH-cam, some are using them to have potatoes for lunch and snacks I don't know anything more filling and satisfying than a potato
Where is the full presentation?
Search "calorie density" for tons of videos.
I'm in the UK and have just discovered you 😝
where can I find the magnetic density chart please 😎
density chart I'm sure is online, put "calorie density of the foods" in a search engine and the winners are_ per pound
Vegetables 65 to 195 calories
Fresh Fruits 135 to 420 calories
Potatoes, sweet potatoes 280 to
AJ, I want to eat 7-10 lbs of food per day, too.
fiber + water produces what? I´m sorry, I don´t speak English very well and I don´t understand that word. thanks in advance.
creates bulk which helps you feel full
Laura Stanton thanks Laura
Bulk (which creates satiety).
Bulk means more substance.
how can i calculate bmr using my weight in kg ?
Alex K google bmi
Why is it so important to lose weight? Why must women teach other women to shame themselves over their weight? Why?!
I just don't know how to prepare veggies to make them palatable without butter or dressing :(
i have tons of free recipes on TH-cam and many more in my books. California Balsamic vinegar is great!
That sounds like giving up before even trying. If you dont know how....learn how! Tons of wfpb recipes at your fingertips!
Nasim "Don't You Forget About Me"
I would love to know how she lost SO MUCH weight and didn't end up with really baggy skin on her arms. I'm sure everyone would like to know how she didn't end up with a lot of extra skin.
I did! But due to my asthma I am not a candidate for skin removal surgery.
Not "everyone"...just the nosey ones! Lol
I got a FORKS over KNIVES magazine. ARE YOU A CONTRIBUTER?
yes
braiiiins!
So how many carbs should you eat?
At least 8-% of total calories
Eat 8 % carbs? Was that a typo? I’m confused.
Barbara Winsor she meant 80
I eat anout 30 grams per meal
I've been drinking smoothies. Is that ok?
Not as good for weight loss. Liquids do not have the same satiety.
And why not blend the kale?
💜😇💜
And one other thing wrong chef aj, with all due respect there is no way my BMR is 4,150 calories . I think you said take your weight and multiply it by 10 . You might want to rethink that one.
So you weigh 415 pounds?
I think she ment to multiply your weight in pounds not kilos
Correct. Your BMR is your weight in pounds x 10.
"no one gets fat eating kale": Yeah, but humans can't survive only eating leaves or non-starchy vegetables. You would have no energy and literally be starving, so this condescending statement doesn't help anyone. It's also obvious.
Back again. I’m totally confused now. You often state that you have been a vegan since you were 17 (43 years). You wear this like a badge of honour and I would too. However, in this video you just said..... I didn’t eat any fruit or vegetables until I was 43. What’s the truth AJ and is it possible to be a non fruit eating non veg eating vegan? In which case I would ask in a very British way..... What the hell did you eat from 17 to 43? Stay safe Jane xx
She has stated that she was a junk food vegan before. Absolutely possible to be a vegan and not eat any fruit and vegetables! Oreos are vegan, you know...
"Whats the truth"? How rude.
In my opinion I think she needs more calories
WEIGHT LOSS WEDNESDAY do you think that if u ate 2,000 to 2,500 of healthy Whole Foods that you would gain a lot of weight?
Chef A.J. ,correction, your'e HYPO thyroid...lol.. I know you well :)
Hi Chef AJ, please don't listen to strangers' opinions or feel the need to justify yourself. I have recently heard about you story on Rich Roll's podcast. You have been through a LOT and yet have been able to maintain a wonderful outlook on life ! R-E-S-P-E-C-T!!!
AJ Dybka she looks amazing and everything I want to be when I grow older. Someone sounds a lil jealous of her success and beauty.
She looks perfectly fine. You are just used to seeing overweight people. In asia she would be considered "normal"
Not everyone wants to be a vegan
In fact very few !!!!
Okay....good bye.
I wish she had better posture
I was in an accident at 22 that fractured my spine in 2 places. I chose not to have surgery.
Unbelievable! I wish you had kooth!
A very mean comment.
Omg why are all these vegans so skinny? Like they're about to die tomorrow?!
Almost 60 so don't think so.
Because you are so used seeing fat people. Lean people are rare these days apparently lmao
@@CHEFAJ You look beautiful Chef AJ, I wish I had a quarter of the determination, drive and self discipline you have!! They are just jealous when they say you're too thin!! Your friend Dana🙏❤️
Its generally the overweight people who die of heart disease (and currently covid), but okay.
