Hi LuLu. You are changing my life and I can’t wait to see your face again. I have finally learned how to use my pressure cooker… had trouble putting on the top but I am a professional now. I bought things I have never eaten. But now that you taught me how to pressure cook, I am eating Brussels sprouts, asparagus, squash, cucumber, carrots, cauliflower, wild fish and chicken. You ARE SUCH A BLESSING!!!! Thank you for helping me eat healthy. I am 71 years old and live in an SRO with shared kitchen and bath in San Diego, California. I am 104 pounds and anorexic all my life. I listen to you very carefully and take notes!!! 😂 My room is less then 100 square feet so I also learn from your van life journey because my space is like living in a van. God Bless and I am on your team!! Judith
hi Judith!! thanks so much for your wonderful note to me!! I'm so grateful to hear that you are cooking and eating well. I understand the other side of this food thing, overeating or undereating is equally a hard life. so happy to know you are eating and eating well!! 100 sq ft is a mansion compare to my van, LOL LOL, my van is 28 sq ft., teeny tiny. 100 sq ft sounds, to me, like the perfect amount of space. I could definitely so smaller than the space I have. enjoy your tiny space!! I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
You were created for TH-cam; you bring smiles, laughter, inspiration, and so much more to all of us. I eat much like you, but my food choices include eggs, yogurt, and goat cheese. Some veggies I can only eat a small amount or…. So we have to follow food choices that are compatible with our bodies; sugar is never one of them.
thanks Rusty for such a nice not to me, I appreciate it! yes, there are many ways to eat healthy, however it looks for you is terrific!! how lucky are we, to be eating well. so grateful!!! Lulu
Lulu I believe that you are the most “real” human being I have encountered i some time and I am grateful for your presence and encouragement of women of a “certain age”. I am 75 and going strong❤
Hi Lulu, another great video! You have motivated me to weigh my food and only eat whole foods, no processed food for a couple of weeks now. I feel so much better. I have completely cut out sugar and I believe that this has contributed so much to my feeling better. Less aches and pains. Thank you.
hi Barbara!! WOW, what good news!! thanks for sharing with me!! less aches and pains, feeling better . . . clearly you are reaping the benefits of eating well. such joy!! so glad you are here! Lulu
As a diabetic I eat low carb. I also eat eggs as a first meal because it stabilizes my glucose for the day. Your yam and eggs is wonderful! I replaced low carb toast with yams and love it!❤. Less expensive and more nutrition!
Made sauteed zucchini, onion and then poured 3 gently stirred eggs. It was delicious and I wouldn't have probably ever done that had I not found your videos. I was laughing when I was cracking the eggs because I could hear your saying gently break up the yokes!!! Thank you as always for your inspiration!
GOOD FOR YOU!!! I bet that was DELISH!!! I learned everything about eggs in this amazing video right here: th-cam.com/video/YbfzC2fNcyg/w-d-xo.html it's worth the 30 minute watch!!!
Hi Lulu. I don’t know how I came across your channel but I’m so happy I did. You are a wonderful person with so much to offer the world. Thank you for your presence. Love from Ireland ☘️
OMG, the cat scene at the end was hilarious. I can totally relate as a cat person smothering my cats with ridiculous amounts of affection. Who needs sugar when you can get all the sweetness in the world from cat hugs and kisses!
I had to laugh at the cat scene too. She looked at you with an "are you quite done now" look. She's a beautiful kitty. I had a tuxedo cat, her name was Shadow 🤍🖤
Look everyday for a video from you, you make me laugh, almost wet my pants laughing the other day when you were measuring something for the van and you couldn’t remember the measurements, that cracked me up😂. I eat and believe very similar to you, I know what you say but don’t believe I’d ever be able to articulate the way you do to encourage others. As I’ve said before, clean eating is not the norm, not easy but so wonderful when one sees others doing it too. We are what we eat, absolutely! You’re a gift, Lulu, keep sharing if you can, no doubt your helping so many.
hi Cheri!! what a lovely note, thank you so much!! so nice to hear how you eat well and yes, we are not the norm, but why be normal? LOL so glad you are here!! eat well, be well, Lulu
Lulu you wonderful woman you. Every video I get to know you more….it’s like layers ….thank you so much for sharing your wisdom. You don’t know what an impact you are having on me. I am Questioning so much about my habits, what gives me peace and joy and investing in my health and self. Thank you my friend This is when I love the internet. I’m a little obsessed with you - fave you tube channel ever !
hey Tanya!! thanks for your note!! I'm so grateful to hear that you are questioning yourself, all positive change, peace and joy first start with an awareness . . . new ideas . . . investing in yourself, YES!!! thanks for making me smile today! Lulu
I’m glad that you are enjoying creating the channel because I’m enjoying watching you. I bet you added 9 years to your life for the 9 years that you have been changing your life. Keep up the good work Lulu👌
Yes, Lulu, so glad you did it. Your family and friends were so right about you having a TH-cam channel. You have inspired me as well. My lunch today was a huge salad with baby bib lettuce, shredded carrots, cooked leeks, cooked broccoli, quinoa/rice, chicken, and extra virgin olive oil. For dessert a pear. Yum! How have you inspired me? Well, I bought your favorite knife (I love it), organic smoked paprika, plastic containers, and all these veggies to cook from the grocery store. I got out my Instant Pot, too, for the first time to use as well. Love your cat. I have four. As I have said before, I look forward to your videos. We all have had bad habits in our past. At 72, I have finally learned to turn them around. It took a long time, didnt it? 😂 Better late than never, I always say. God Bless you, Lulu! ❤🙏
hi Mary!! yes, it's never to late to change your mind, it's never too late to change your life!! so happy to hear about all the ways in which my channel has inspired you. LOVE MY KNIFE!! glad you do too!! enjoy your journey, Mary! Lulu :)
Used Smoked Paprika for the first time! Loved it Lulu, thanks! Tomorrow I will have strawberries, sweet potato and sunflower seeds! Yummy, can't wait! Love Ya! Miss Lila
I’m so happy I found your channel!! That you reprioritized what truly matters and it became a hot tube is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing in your quiet authentic way. 🤗
You're a natural for TH-cam--you have an animated face, lots to say, and an open spirit. These are the things that keep me coming back. India is a HANDSOME cat!
As always I love to see what your up to. And tell you I just love your little living room. It is so cute and I love plants it just makes everthing and place so homey. Be safe and Be Happy.😊
Always a pleasure Lulu! You always are a joy to watch and love your content! I eat pretty clean myself (not as clean as you) and I have to say like someone else had commented , when we really pay attention to the food we eat it really can affect us in a negative way. I know when I cut out many things that were not serving me well I feel so much better, less aches and pains I have more energy. The carbs, which turn into sugar cause inflammation and so many other bad things. I know it’s hard to cut out so many things we are used to ,however for good health we have to do it for ourselves. Thank you for being here and India is adorable!
Such a pleasure to watch your Chanel. Thank you for encouraging me to eat better . I'm not totally there yet but I watch you everyday for new healthy ideas. And I started walking everyday.
You Lulu definitely bring a good bit of Joy & Positive energy to myself & many others here. I strive to live my life with intention, positivity & joy. I've been through so much in past 8 years & now it's just me...I avoid drama at all possible. Yes we do have to have discipline & I'm working on that aspect, one step at a time. Sending you hugs & love. Looking forward to seeing Barb again with you. ❤❤❤
hi Pam!! avoiding drama is a discipline and an action you are taking to create more joy in your life. so you are working it!! we're all a work in progress!! Lulu
One thing I enjoy about you and your passion for clean eating is that you suggest and tell what you do without judgement or expectation. You have inspired many I am sure and I have taken a lot from you (bought a Instant Pot, Japanese yams, 4 oz of protein, 5 oz of Japanese yam, etc.), but the most important lesson is to put myself first. I am not compromising my nutrition because others want to eat differently. Oh yes, and by pre-cooking the Japanese yams and all my veggies its always available and there is no barrier. My favorite breakfast I like to eat is a large portion of cooked broccoli topped with scrambled eggs (2 whole/ 2 whites) and 1/2 an avocado!!! Amazing!! I am now gluten/dairy/sugar/processed foods FREE!! My health and so much better and I am dropping weight!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU!!❤❤❤
WOW WOW!! look at you, you're crushin' it!!! enjoy all that lovely food, so happy you are feeling so much better by nourishing yourself well, thanks for letting me know!!! I LOVE IT! Lulu
Hi from Oklahoma. Love watching your channel. You are a joy to watch. Having Apple, strawberry salad for supper tonight. Was thinking of you when I made the decision for my meal. So glad you started this journey. Can’t wait to see how you van turns out
Hi Lulu, My husband and I feel so much better eating your way. We went to the grocery store today and when we were checking out I said look, all healthy foods and no junk. I cant believe we did this but we had our eggs, sunny side up on cauliflower yesterday with a protein and not on toast. And it was great! Never did that before but will continue to do that. Also got 20,00 steps in today as well. All is going we here on the health front. Thanks for the inspiration!!!!
hi Brenda!! wow, so excited for you and hubs, a nice team, getting healthier together and supporting each other, LOVE IT!!! when you can stand back and admire your choices at the check out, you know you've got yourself a dynamite grocery haul, YAY YOU AND HUBS!!! stay inspired and keep sharing!! Lulu
I found you a week ago and I have watched through all of your videos. I just love all you have to say and I find myself rewinding you to listen to your key points over and over again. You are a inspection for sure. I'm so glad I found your channel. I love your pace and your peace.
hello Bennett!! thank you sooooo much for your lovely and encouraging message to me!! I'm so happy to know you are enjoying my videos and I'm super glad you found my channel. Lulu
Hi Lulu! I love your videos. I wanted to tell you this Sunday will be 2 weeks since I started eating healthier. I started feeling better within a few days. I am not snacking between meals or eating before I go to bed! I am praying I continue to do it! You are just a joy to be around and you have encouraged me to take care of myself. I am 67 and now the van life may be next! GOD loves you sweet lady and I do too! 😊❤
hello Kenja!!! thank you sooooo much for your wonderful note to me!! so happy to hear you are taking good care of kenja, she's worth it!! YAY!! I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
Funny thing. I gave up sugar a month ago, after watching you Lulu. I do not miss it and I tasted a jelly bean on Sunday and I had to spit it out! It tasted awful, haha!
I feel like I’m sitting with my Sangha at the Buddhist center when I watch your videos. You are so present it draws me into presence as well. What a beautiful soul you are.❤️
@@LulusWay64 the pleasure is all mine! I’m so happy to have stumbled upon your channel. Though not by chance, I am certain. We always end up where we need to be.💕
6 months ago I finally convinced my Dr to do something about the blurry vision I had for 3 yrs. My a1c1 was 12.3. Now 7 months later it is 6.1. I went from all processed to 5o% veggies 40% protein 10% carbs. It really has made me feel so much better. I would never go back. I can t wait to learn from u. This OS my 2nd post i just watched the tour of ur "house" m loving u. Its great to have a role model that is near my age. Im 52. But use a wheelchair or walker so I feel much older.
so happy to hear your story of changing your a1c1 around by changing your food. you make good choices now and your body is responding. so exciting!! thanks for sharing!! Lulu
Lulu. Im going through one of the toughest times in my life. I have a 23 year old about to graduate college and a 13 year old so I need to stay positive for them. I came across your channel and you are a beacon of light to me. BTW...my cats name is Bubba and when I was watching this he kept turning around whenever you said it. Thank you for being you.
That is a tough time you're in.2 different sets of challenges with the children, but so worth it. Keep your chin up and stay positive so many good days ahead for you and the children.
Bought more fresh veggies at the grocery today..... thanks for your inspiration... been trying to lose weight.... but failing horriblely..... off for a walk with my puppies soon... happy to find your channel..... bought my van one month ago.... still working full time... but planning small trips to get my feet wet..... your one of the you tubers i watch for inspiration and how to outfit my 2019 Toyota Sienna....
hi Julia!!! thanks for your note to me!! YAY on the veggie grocery haul!!! have fun outfitting your minivan, that is exactly what I did when I was still working! did you see my van tour on Butterfly Tracks channel of the minivan I had before I got the cargo van? check it out, you may get some ideas for your minivan!! th-cam.com/video/AjKYkxzbLMM/w-d-xo.html
I came across your channel this morning and have enjoyed two videos so far, but the joy (and chuckles) of your cat allowing you to love on them was truly a highlight of my quiet morning. Thanks for that and the rest of your share with us 😊.
Have you heard how everyone has a doppelganger? Well, you and my late Auntie are doppelgangers. haha I miss her and you look and remind me of her so I love "spending time" with you. Have a great day Lulu
I love when you dance ! Oh and your shirt is lovely. Just right on you. You seem to have a gift for knowing what is "just right" Lulu's way ! I love it! 🥰
hi Judith!! thanks for your fun note!! when I began to love myself fiercely, I discovered everything that was just right for me!!! I'm glad you are here! Lulu
I really like fresh spinach with strawberries and blueberries. I have type 2 diabetes. I am not over weight, I don’t drink alcohol or smoke. I try to stick to my diet. It not easy in my house. My husband has to have his snacks and my daughter and her two children live with us. There are so much junk food in our house. I don’t have a lot of will power. As a result my diabetes has become worse.
This particular episode is one of my favorites, dear Lulu. I think this is the fourth time I’m watching it. You have no idea how much your videos are influencing my life in a positive way. Slowly but surely I am adopting your habits, and I feel so good when I eat clean. I truly feel like finding your TH-cam channel has been a gift to me from God. Thank you for being you!!! ❤
hello Linda!! I am thrilled to hear that you are adopting new habits of your own and that you feel so good!! I'm so glad you found my channel, I'm super happy you are here!! thanks for writing . . . Lulu 🌺
Enjoyed this very much Lulu ❤. I am glad you are sharing some of your life with us - and yes it is wonderful when people explain what they are eating thanks to you and your inspiration ! May we all get healthier together :)
I'm so proud that while having to raise my grandson I can get him organic fruits and vegetables. He is 18 months old and prefers them over any other foods. When my kids were young things were different and we ate a lot of cheap foods.
JOY…..sooo important. Got rid of my old rickety Weight Watchers food scale last week from the early 1980s. It just reminded me of years of counting points, eating processed foods, food obsession, and constant yo-yo failure. I stopped counting after 15 times of joining WW. It did not work for me, as well as endless other diets. Eating whole foods in measured quantities is the way to go. I ordered a FRESH new Ozeri food scale that you recommended - bright Royal blue, my favorite colour. New beginnings - I am soooo excited! New vision. I enjoyed seeing your breakfast. What a great healthy combo! Thanks for the continued health inspiration.
I’ll be full time Lulu, in my van coming this May 1st. I new I wanted a TH-cam channel to document my journey. My channel is created but I am thinking my 1st video will be posted this Friday! I have to go through it for one final edit. Watching your videos really help me NOT procrastinate, so thank you for that! As per usual, you are so stinkin’ cute, especially with your kitty! Thanks for sharing your journey!
hello!! how exciting for you!! I look forward to seeing your debut video!! I had no idea what I was doing when I first started my channel, but I just did it anyway!! be sure to let me know when you've posted it!! and I assume your channel name is Eat Pray Van? what a clever name!! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 yes the channel name is Eat Pray Van. Named after my favorite book/movie! I love that you are just yourself and super genuine. One of my other favorite TH-camrs said if your going to do TH-cam to “Be Yourself”. (Your one of my favorites too ❤️) I’m from/born in NYC and I really love the “Bawston” accent LOVE IT! I’ll post on whichever is your newest video on Friday and let you know it posted! I can post a link to the video, thank you for wanting to watch I really appreciate it!!
that was a GREAT book!! LOVED IT!! yes, be yourself, totally be yourself. I'm not an actress so I would suck at that, I would never remember my lines!! a couple of times I wrote myself a little bullet list so I wouldn't forget to cover everything I wanted to talk about in a video, and then I forgot to look at the list!! LOL I can't NOT be myself if I tried. have fun with it!! I look forward to your first video!! mine is pretty cringy to watch, LOL
If not now…..when? You said that in a previous video and it really hit home with me. There are several things I have been putting off, one of which is taking better care of my health. So after three years of sitting on my couch and eating junk food, I have started walking again. And I also went out and bought a bunch of veggies and am actually eating them (they usually end up going bad in my fridge). The other saying that is now my motto I heard on your channel from your friend from Quebec, “I don’t have time for a bad time” those are words to live by. It’s hard to believe that a person I have never met has made more of an impact on my life than my family and friends. I am so grateful I stumbled across your channel. Thank you for being you, because you are awesome.
When I'm shopping healthy I shop one section And I feel better. I can't shop if I'm upset. My favorite right now is Kale, onions Avocado with a low carb. Wrap 60 calories or egg no yoke. Tomorrow I'm trying the white sweet potato 🎉
hey Cindy!! shopping healthy and you feel better!! YAY YOU!!! sounds like a yummo wrap!! enjoy the white sweet potato, hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Lulu
hi Amy!! I feel so good, that's the true gift!! I knew my 60s were coming up and I was going to be a hot mess if I didn't make some serious changes NOW. I had no more time keep thinking about it. now at 64 years old, I have the life I want!! Lulu
VAN LIFE!! YAY YOU!!! I can't wait to get on the road again!! I just finished insulating and glad that's out of the way, and now to move onto more fun projects!! hoping to complete my build by mid to end of May and get out there, going somewhere!! keep me posted on your journey! Lulu
I am getting my hair cut tomorrow too love the short sassy hair …. I love sharing your meals I am coping you … yesterday I bought a purple cabbage and started adding that to our salads yummy! The wasted money is hard for me too but the past is gone forever! yay you bought a hot tub🎉 so excited Barb is coming to visit you!! You have the best channel Lulu!!! Love love
Woo hoo. I'm off car camping on a trip to visit my son. I live in NZ so not a super big overland drive like America. I have my healthy salad for dinner and my healthy food to take along. Loving life.
Hi Lulu, it's funny my nickname is also Lulu lol. We have a lot of similarities, I love eating Japanese sweet potatoes, I have a sign in my room that saids SIMPLIFY, I started to eat healthy about 5 years ago and organic, it's been a journey. I just stopped alcohol. I stopped Cigarettes about 11 years ago. I am also on a spiritual journey, I have been following Wayne Dyer work for years. I saw you are reading his book.. Anyways great minds think alike 😁😁. I am also learning from your videos. Thank you!
hi Lulu!! thanks for your note!! I appreciate it!! wow, we sure do have a lot of similarities!! we've both made amazing changes in our lives and we are seekers. I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
I worked at a desk job for over 33 years and sitting so much being inactive didn’t help my weight or body. When Covid hit our country, my job had us working from home and shortly after that, it turned into a permanent layoff, which was a blessing in disguise. That was 3 years ago… I had time to go hiking, and work in my garden every day. We stopped eating in restaurants or eating restaurant food at all, which was a weekly ongoing thing. I stopped drinking soda. Can’t stand that sugary mess now… With those changes, i dropped nearly 50 lbs without even trying. It was a blessing. We still are not eating any restaurant foods. I hope as each season goes on, i continue to lose automatically because dropping the 50 feels wonderful to my body and my bones. I love cooking healthier foods but my wife is a suger baby and loves her sweets passionately. She nearly 84 and has issues with dementia so i don’t have the heart to take anything away like her ice cream that makes her so happy. She’s a tiny thing barely 110 lbs. I just try to get her to eat the good things too, but she’s a fierce little bull. LOL. Some days I succeed, some days I don’t. Your white sweet potatoes interest me greatly. I’ll have to find some. I love seeing your videos.
hi there!! thank you for sharing your weight loss journey with me!! those changes you made, made quite a difference, YAY YOU!! I'm glad you are here! Lulu
You are an inspiration. I load my cart up with a lot of veggies now. Aiming for a pound of veggies for lunch and dinner with protein and minimal carbs similar to your meals. My family hasn’t complain yet. If you plan a meet up for MA/CT/RI area, please announce it on TH-cam. I would love to join your group. I’m looking for ProMaster City as well. I will look seriously in July after we get back from Portugal with the family. This summer I have one camping trip with my girlfriend to RI. It is our girls annual camping trip. But I would love to do more than just one trip.
I'm a fan of you! You are so enjoyable to watch. Your uplifting attitude puts a smile on my face. If I were in your area I would love to have a cup of Java with you. With admiration from Minnesota.
I try not to give advice, just kinda saying what I do!! I'm sure it sounds like advice or clearly is advice, but I do try not to do that!! everybody is just doing the best they can each and every day, and I get that!! Lulu
hey Barb!! yup, living the good life, for sure!! the journaling/documenting I'm doing is on this youtube channel and in my daily gratitude writing practice that documents everything in my life every single day!! Lulu
I just found you , Lulu, from some other comment suggestion I saw in my YT travels. My dietary choices are carnivore because I have 50 lbs of ugly fat to lose, I want to feel better, have more pep, and basically cure my sugar addiction. Best wishes always, Jax in CO
Oh i 4got to add I eat fruit for snacks or a small bowl if blueberries for dinner. So I guess it would be 40% veggies. 35% fruit 10% carbs 10% fruit. But I dint always eat too much because it elevates my blood sugar. I feel the same way about NY food since I changed the way to eat. I used t I crave mire food chips oatmeal w/ lots if brown sugar macaroni n cheese. Nit Amy more. All my food is coked in an air fryer - no room fir am oven- n I just love it ok never hungry between meals.
Hi Lulu, I’ve only been a follower now for a couple months, but I find you so sweet and entertaining, so down to earth and easy to listen to, love your positivity, we need more and more of that these days. Love your power and sensitivity, Keep up the good work and we will follow 🚶♀️❤ Your pal , Susie
hey Susie!! thanks for your nice and encouraging note to me!! well, you've only been here for a couple of months and I've only been here for less than 3 months! HAHAHA so happy to know that you are enjoying my channel and I'm grateful you are here!! Lulu
Hi Lulu, when you showed the rebounder it reminded me when I had one. At the time my kids were all small and everyone jumped on it until one day it broke. Lol. Ohh memories. Well, I'm going to buy one. My kids are adult women and are married with children. Beautiful cat ! [ mama's baby].
Lulu I eat far left food than you just like you said to do and I lost 7 pound and 8 pound to go.. If I want to get to 144 most or less 136. All because of you. I grateful again thanks
Lula I thought your mug had a moutain and stream view..lol, and I thought I was the only one that gave lots of kisses to her furbabie. Our Furbabies are a joy in our lives. I lost one on Christmas Eve, but I still have my NewNew, she is older but loves her kisses also. New New is a womans cat she was abused after her first mom passed by the son, and I adopted her. Took several weeks for her to trust me, I have had her 10 years now. She loves to travel with me and I have never left her behind not even overnight, except when I had to have surgery. We are a pair....love you new blouse, looks so comfy, and the color is great on you!! Yes I cooked today , Fresh celery sticks and potatoes, and whole onions, with the skin on, the flavor was delicious, of course I removed the skin one I took them out of my Instant Pot, .."0" pressure baby, yeah, love it.
hey Sissy!! thanks for your note!! both of my mugs are peeling, they are so old!! but they are champs!! although it looks like my kitty girl enjoys the kisses, she actually hates it and tolerates me, she's a good sport!! when we got her at a little kitten, she came to us with her sister, we had the two little tuxedo kitties for year, but Skye died about 5 years ago, but India is still holding strong!! your dinner sounds yummy!! Lulu
I watched today while I ate dinner. It was like we were having a meal together. I loved it! I eat very high protein and am really working hard on eliminating carbs. Bread is the main culprit for me. I have horrible skin reactions when I eat bread, pasta or too much sugar. Painful situations that could take weeks to heal, if they do fully. There are still naughty things I eat if they are given to me, but I have made a point not to buy them. It's hard to have this stuff in the house. But as long as 90-95% of my diet is protein and veg , I can control it. But I'd rather not have it at all. For some reason I'm good with rice🤷♀️ But I'm Working on it though🙌 oh my goodness, the cats face was hilarious. We have a neighborhood cat that adopted us. So I enjoy her every chance i get. Her actual family were renters and they moved and tried to take her but she came back on her own. Lucky us❤ and then I have my 10 year old Malti-poo that is the love of my life. I couldn't ask for a sweeter pup. I hope and pray to have her for many more years. That's awesome that Barb is coming to visit🎉 Stay beautiful Lulu~Moni
hey Moni!! thanks for your note!! I love the idea that you felt like we were eating together, I can imagine that!!! that's great that you are no longer buying the foods that bring you health troubles!! good for you!! keep up that 90-95% wellness and just keep "really working hard" . . . you are worth it!! Lulu
I came across your videos and i have to say I truly enjoy your videos. Can you share more about your reading group is it open to others? Stay blessed, and enjoy life you are truly an inspiration!
hello!! it's a closed group. doesn't mean another group couldn't be started amongst us here on Lulu's Way, that could be a great way for us all to connect!! I'll consider that!! Lulu
The grey cup, I thought it was a mountain landscape on it 😆. Your breakfast sounds delicious. I never thought of having cold Bata with 🍓seeds and nuts for breakfast
hey Berni!! you are the third person that thought my mug was a mountain landscape. and all this time I was thinking "geez Lulu, you go on youtube with this ratty old mug!!" LOL
Lulu I just found your channel and I am enjoying it so much! I have been trying to decide the next eating strategy and I love your food ideas, going to start implementing right away. My husband and I have been struggling with our energy levels and weight (he is under and I am over) ugh. Thank you for sharing your life, love your positive energy, you are a gem!
Great video!!! I love your kitty!!! She reminds me of my kitty Lucky that I lost in January 2022! I still miss her! Still have 2 kitty's and they have traveled all the way from Oklahoma to Florida and back in my RV! I just bought a Nissan NV2500 cargo van in February that I am in the process of building into a camper van! I am using Havelock wool to insulate mine! Its been a slow process for me with my bad back, hip and knee, but I am determined to do it! Looking forward to your next video!
@@LulusWay64 I am planning on going down to Corpus Christi in May and then to Hobbs New Mexico on my birthday in June! Want to be in the town I was born in for my 65th birthday!!!
Hello again Lulu ... I enjoy your video's so much ..very inspirational. Would love to know more about your life and how you got to be such a lovely happy content lady xx
hello Anne!! I'm not sure I could but that into words, but stay tuned and my example should provide the insights into how I arrived at such contentment. perhaps taking good care of myself, coupled with a spiritual journey which led me to an array of growth and different ways to view life . . . it's a great big package deal, and I'm committed to it!! I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
Hi LuLu. You are changing my life and I can’t wait to see your face again. I have finally learned how to use my pressure cooker… had trouble putting on the top but I am a professional now. I bought things I have never eaten. But now that you taught me how to pressure cook, I am eating Brussels sprouts, asparagus, squash, cucumber, carrots, cauliflower, wild fish and chicken. You ARE SUCH A BLESSING!!!! Thank you for helping me eat healthy. I am 71 years old and live in an SRO with shared kitchen and bath in San Diego, California. I am 104 pounds and anorexic all my life. I listen to you very carefully and take notes!!! 😂 My room is less then 100 square feet so I also learn from your van life journey because my space is like living in a van. God Bless and I am on your team!! Judith
hi Judith!! thanks so much for your wonderful note to me!! I'm so grateful to hear that you are cooking and eating well. I understand the other side of this food thing, overeating or undereating is equally a hard life. so happy to know you are eating and eating well!! 100 sq ft is a mansion compare to my van, LOL LOL, my van is 28 sq ft., teeny tiny. 100 sq ft sounds, to me, like the perfect amount of space. I could definitely so smaller than the space I have. enjoy your tiny space!! I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 thank you for responding…it means so much to me. I feel you are now my friend!!
Lulu I just met you and you have become my friend when am alone. I watch you and I feel I have a friend right there with me.
You were created for TH-cam; you bring smiles, laughter, inspiration, and so much more to all of us. I eat much like you, but my food choices include eggs, yogurt, and goat cheese. Some veggies I can only eat a small amount or…. So we have to follow food choices that are compatible with our bodies; sugar is never one of them.
thanks Rusty for such a nice not to me, I appreciate it! yes, there are many ways to eat healthy, however it looks for you is terrific!! how lucky are we, to be eating well. so grateful!!! Lulu
Lulu I believe that you are the most “real” human being I have encountered i some time and I am grateful for your presence and encouragement of women of a “certain age”. I am 75 and going strong❤
hi Carol!! WOW, thanks for your very lovely, powerful and encouraging note to me!! 75 and going strong, you rock!! Lulu
Hi Lulu, another great video! You have motivated me to weigh my food and only eat whole foods, no processed food for a couple of weeks now. I feel so much better. I have completely cut out sugar and I believe that this has contributed so much to my feeling better. Less aches and pains. Thank you.
hi Barbara!! WOW, what good news!! thanks for sharing with me!! less aches and pains, feeling better . . . clearly you are reaping the benefits of eating well. such joy!! so glad you are here! Lulu
Always a joy to see your face LuLu. So calming in a hectic world
I love you LuLu. You make me want to emulate you...your joyful spirit, your healthy life style and your zest for life!
awww Frances, thanks for your super sweet lovely note to me!! I just love that you are here! Lulu
Amen Lulu just doesn't realize how wonderful & beautiful she is, inside & out. ❤❤❤
As a diabetic I eat low carb. I also eat eggs as a first meal because it stabilizes my glucose for the day. Your yam and eggs is wonderful! I replaced low carb toast with yams and love it!❤. Less expensive and more nutrition!
YAY Jo Marie!! I love my yam and eggs!! or basmati rice and eggs is good too!! ENJOY!! so glad you are here! Lulu
Made sauteed zucchini, onion and then poured 3 gently stirred eggs. It was delicious and I wouldn't have probably ever done that had I not found your videos. I was laughing when I was cracking the eggs because I could hear your saying gently break up the yokes!!! Thank you as always for your inspiration!
Yes I do the gently scrambled now as well 😊
GOOD FOR YOU!!! I bet that was DELISH!!! I learned everything about eggs in this amazing video right here: th-cam.com/video/YbfzC2fNcyg/w-d-xo.html
it's worth the 30 minute watch!!!
Thank you for sharing your journey 💞
Hi Lulu.
I don’t know how I came across your channel but I’m so happy I did.
You are a wonderful person with so much to offer the world.
Thank you for your presence.
Love from Ireland ☘️
hello Veronica!!! wow, thanks so much for your beautiful note to me, I appreciate it!! so happy to see you here all the way from Ireland!! Lulu
OMG, the cat scene at the end was hilarious. I can totally relate as a cat person smothering my cats with ridiculous amounts of affection. Who needs sugar when you can get all the sweetness in the world from cat hugs and kisses!
oh, and it looks like she was cooperating and enjoying, but she HATES that. but I do it anyway! she tolerates me! LOL
I had to laugh at the cat scene too. She looked at you with an "are you quite done now" look. She's a beautiful kitty. I had a tuxedo cat, her name was Shadow 🤍🖤
Look everyday for a video from you, you make me laugh, almost wet my pants laughing the other day when you were measuring something for the van and you couldn’t remember the measurements, that cracked me up😂. I eat and believe very similar to you, I know what you say but don’t believe I’d ever be able to articulate the way you do to encourage others. As I’ve said before, clean eating is not the norm, not easy but so wonderful when one sees others doing it too. We are what we eat, absolutely! You’re a gift, Lulu, keep sharing if you can, no doubt your helping so many.
hi Cheri!! what a lovely note, thank you so much!! so nice to hear how you eat well and yes, we are not the norm, but why be normal? LOL so glad you are here!! eat well, be well, Lulu
Lulu you wonderful woman you. Every video I get to know you more….it’s like layers ….thank you so much for sharing your wisdom. You don’t know what an impact you are having on me. I am Questioning so much about my habits, what gives me peace and joy and investing in my health and self.
Thank you my friend
This is when I love the internet. I’m a little obsessed with you - fave you tube channel ever !
hey Tanya!! thanks for your note!! I'm so grateful to hear that you are questioning yourself, all positive change, peace and joy first start with an awareness . . . new ideas . . . investing in yourself, YES!!! thanks for making me smile today! Lulu
I’m glad that you are enjoying creating the channel because I’m enjoying watching you. I bet you added 9 years to your life for the 9 years that you have been changing your life. Keep up the good work Lulu👌
hello!! thanks for your nice note!! so appreciate your encouragement. I think you are right, I feel 18 years younger!! lol thanks, Lulu
Yes, Lulu, so glad you did it. Your family and friends were so right about you having a TH-cam channel. You have inspired me as well. My lunch today was a huge salad with baby bib lettuce, shredded carrots, cooked leeks, cooked broccoli, quinoa/rice, chicken, and extra virgin olive oil. For dessert a pear. Yum! How have you inspired me? Well, I bought your favorite knife (I love it), organic smoked paprika, plastic containers, and all these veggies to cook from the grocery store. I got out my Instant Pot, too, for the first time to use as well. Love your cat. I have four. As I have said before, I look forward to your videos. We all have had bad habits in our past. At 72, I have finally learned to turn them around. It took a long time, didnt it? 😂 Better late than never, I always say. God Bless you, Lulu! ❤🙏
hi Mary!! yes, it's never to late to change your mind, it's never too late to change your life!! so happy to hear about all the ways in which my channel has inspired you. LOVE MY KNIFE!! glad you do too!! enjoy your journey, Mary! Lulu :)
Yes I agree, I used to eat very healthy when I was younger, but old and fat now and would like to hear what everyone is making.
hi Pamela!! if you want to know what I'm making, stick around, I talk about food a lot!! LOL
@@LulusWay64 More breakfast suggestions pleeease!
You are such a joy Lulu. India is very cute. I suffer from clinical depression and you really lift my mood. Stay Blessed sweet lady.
She's an anti-depressant in human form. Have you had your dose of Lulu today?!😊
hello Heather!! thanks for your note. I'm so happy to know that I lift your spirits, I'm SOOOO glad you are here!! Lulu
Used Smoked Paprika for the first time! Loved it Lulu, thanks! Tomorrow I will have strawberries, sweet potato and sunflower seeds! Yummy, can't wait! Love Ya! Miss Lila
hi Lila!! so happy to hear you enjoyed the paprika. enjoy breakfast tomorrow!! YUM!! Lulu
I just turned 55. I buy bikes…I have 5…keeps me active and healthy.
I’m so happy I found your channel!! That you reprioritized what truly matters and it became a hot tube is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing in your quiet authentic way. 🤗
hi Cadence!! thanks for your nice note, I appreciate it! I'm so happy you found my channel too! and I'm grateful you are here! Lulu
We have 2 Bubba cups and we LOVE them!! Thank you for another great video!
Lulu, thanks for sharing. I love these chats and it's always helpful to hear about your life's journey. Thanks so much for your wisdom.
You're a natural for TH-cam--you have an animated face, lots to say, and an open spirit. These are the things that keep me coming back. India is a HANDSOME cat!
I appreciate your kind words and I'm glad you keep coming back!! Lulu
As always I love to see what your up to. And tell you I just love your little living room. It is so cute and I love plants it just makes everthing and place so homey. Be safe and Be Happy.😊
Thanks for sharing, Lulu!
I'm happy you enjoy it because I look forward to checking in on you everyday. I love your positivity. ❤
hi Polly!! thanks so much for your nice note!! I'm glad you are here! Lulu
Always a pleasure Lulu! You always are a joy to watch and love your content! I eat pretty clean myself (not as clean as you) and I have to say like someone else had commented , when we really pay attention to the food we eat it really can affect us in a negative way. I know when I cut out many things that were not serving me well I feel so much better, less aches and pains I have more energy. The carbs, which turn into sugar cause inflammation and so many other bad things. I know it’s hard to cut out so many things we are used to ,however for good health we have to do it for ourselves. Thank you for being here and India is adorable!
I quote from a great book that I have "everybody has their own answer, everybody has their own timing, everybody has their own path."
Such a pleasure to watch your Chanel. Thank you for encouraging me to eat better . I'm not totally there yet but I watch you everyday for new healthy ideas. And I started walking everyday.
hey Jill!! good for you, walking every day!! stay encouraged and just give it your best every day! YAY YOU!! Lulu
Good for you, keep at it, it's worth it!
You Lulu definitely bring a good bit of Joy & Positive energy to myself & many others here. I strive to live my life with intention, positivity & joy. I've been through so much in past 8 years & now it's just me...I avoid drama at all possible.
Yes we do have to have discipline & I'm working on that aspect, one step at a time. Sending you hugs & love. Looking forward to seeing Barb again with you. ❤❤❤
hi Pam!! avoiding drama is a discipline and an action you are taking to create more joy in your life. so you are working it!! we're all a work in progress!! Lulu
One thing I enjoy about you and your passion for clean eating is that you suggest and tell what you do without judgement or expectation. You have inspired many I am sure and I have taken a lot from you (bought a Instant Pot, Japanese yams, 4 oz of protein, 5 oz of Japanese yam, etc.), but the most important lesson is to put myself first. I am not compromising my nutrition because others want to eat differently. Oh yes, and by pre-cooking the Japanese yams and all my veggies its always available and there is no barrier. My favorite breakfast I like to eat is a large portion of cooked broccoli topped with scrambled eggs (2 whole/ 2 whites) and 1/2 an avocado!!! Amazing!! I am now gluten/dairy/sugar/processed foods FREE!! My health and so much better and I am dropping weight!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU!!❤❤❤
WOW WOW!! look at you, you're crushin' it!!! enjoy all that lovely food, so happy you are feeling so much better by nourishing yourself well, thanks for letting me know!!! I LOVE IT! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 my name is Barb as well and being from New England, when I get a voice text from friends it always comes over as Bob…LOL..
You go girl!
You're like sitting with a friend...chatting...little coffee and snack. Learning so much from you. So relaxing. Thank you lady.
thanks Carol, so happy to hear you are enjoying my videos. I'm just so happy that you are here!! Lulu

hello Andrea!! thanks for your nice encouraging note. I appreciate it!! Lulu
Hi Lulu, My husband and I feel so much better eating your way. We went to the grocery store today and when we were checking out I said look, all healthy foods and no junk. I cant believe we did this but we had our eggs, sunny side up on cauliflower yesterday with a protein and not on toast. And it was great! Never did that before but will continue to do that. Also got 20,00 steps in today as well. All is going we here on the health front. Thanks for the inspiration!!!!
hi Brenda!! wow, so excited for you and hubs, a nice team, getting healthier together and supporting each other, LOVE IT!!! when you can stand back and admire your choices at the check out, you know you've got yourself a dynamite grocery haul, YAY YOU AND HUBS!!! stay inspired and keep sharing!! Lulu
I found you a week ago and I have watched through all of your videos. I just love all you have to say and I find myself rewinding you to listen to your key points over and over again. You are a inspection for sure. I'm so glad I found your channel. I love your pace and your peace.
hello Bennett!! thank you sooooo much for your lovely and encouraging message to me!! I'm so happy to know you are enjoying my videos and I'm super glad you found my channel. Lulu
I pray for you and the best for your channel and all the people that is meant to hear what you have to say. You a a blessing for so many I'm sure.
Hi Lulu! I love your videos. I wanted to tell you this Sunday will be 2 weeks since I started eating healthier. I started feeling better within a few days. I am not snacking between meals or eating before I go to bed! I am praying I continue to do it! You are just a joy to be around and you have encouraged me to take care of myself. I am 67 and now the van life may be next! GOD loves you sweet lady and I do too! 😊❤
hello Kenja!!! thank you sooooo much for your wonderful note to me!! so happy to hear you are taking good care of kenja, she's worth it!! YAY!! I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 Thank you 😊
Funny thing. I gave up sugar a month ago, after watching you Lulu. I do not miss it and I tasted a jelly bean on Sunday and I had to spit it out! It tasted awful, haha!
bye bye shooga!!! :)
I feel like I’m sitting with my Sangha at the Buddhist center when I watch your videos. You are so present it draws me into presence as well. What a beautiful soul you are.❤️
hello Jem, thanks for your lovely note to me, WOW!! you are very present to notice such a thing!! I'm so glad you are here!! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 the pleasure is all mine! I’m so happy to have stumbled upon your channel. Though not by chance, I am certain. We always end up where we need to be.💕
Hi Lulu, Thank you for another chat. Your kitty is lovely! Breakfast looks so yummy :)
6 months ago I finally convinced my Dr to do something about the blurry vision I had for 3 yrs. My a1c1 was 12.3. Now 7 months later it is 6.1. I went from all processed to 5o% veggies 40% protein 10% carbs. It really has made me feel so much better. I would never go back. I can t wait to learn from u. This OS my 2nd post i just watched the tour of ur "house" m loving u. Its great to have a role model that is near my age. Im 52. But use a wheelchair or walker so I feel much older.
so happy to hear your story of changing your a1c1 around by changing your food. you make good choices now and your body is responding. so exciting!! thanks for sharing!! Lulu
You are such a blessing Lulu! I believe you are making an extraordinary impact to those you come I. Contact with. Including Me!
hello Lo!! thanks for your super sweet note to me! I'm so happy you are enjoying my channel and I'm really grateful you are here! Lulu
Lulu. Im going through one of the toughest times in my life. I have a 23 year old about to graduate college and a 13 year old so I need to stay positive for them. I came across your channel and you are a beacon of light to me. BTW...my cats name is Bubba and when I was watching this he kept turning around whenever you said it. Thank you for being you.
That is a tough time you're in.2 different sets of challenges with the children, but so worth it. Keep your chin up and stay positive so many good days ahead for you and the children.
How do you find your book clubs?
I create the book clubs myself, I search for likeminded people and we commit to a long-term study together.
too cute that Bubba the cat was looking around!! too funny!!
Hi Lulu 🙋♀️ Enjoyed your video today ❣️ Your cat is so beautiful 😊❤ Love strawberries, they look delicious 😊❤ Take care 😊❤
my dinner tonite was shredded veggies, a bit of pasta sauce, shredded parmesan and turkey pepperoni...yummy
a veggie pizza bake.
hi Tracie!! nice job!! sounds DELISH!! Lulu

YAY on the veggie grocery haul!!! have fun outfitting your minivan, that is exactly what I did when I was still working! did you see my van tour on Butterfly Tracks channel of the minivan I had before I got the cargo van? check it out, you may get some ideas for your minivan!! th-cam.com/video/AjKYkxzbLMM/w-d-xo.html
@@LulusWay64 thank you for the encouragement...... will check out that van tour!!!!!😊❤️
I came across your channel this morning and have enjoyed two videos so far, but the joy (and chuckles) of your cat allowing you to love on them was truly a highlight of my quiet morning. Thanks for that and the rest of your share with us 😊.
hey Kip!! the cat tolerates that love, she actually hates it, but allows me!! LOL
Have you heard how everyone has a doppelganger? Well, you and my late Auntie are doppelgangers. haha I miss her and you look and remind me of her so I love "spending time" with you. Have a great day Lulu
awwww KB, it made me smile to think of your Auntie!! thanks for letting me know!! I'm so glad you found me!! Lulu (Auntie's doppelganger!!)

Thanks for sharing your joy! We all need to find joy in the simple things in our lives. Your energy is contagious. ❤❤
thanks for your nice note, Nancy, appreciate it!! Lulu
I love when you dance ! Oh and your shirt is lovely. Just right on you. You seem to have a gift for knowing what is "just right" Lulu's way ! I love it! 🥰
hi Judith!! thanks for your fun note!! when I began to love myself fiercely, I discovered everything that was just right for me!!! I'm glad you are here! Lulu
I really like fresh spinach with strawberries and blueberries. I have type 2 diabetes. I am not over weight, I don’t drink alcohol or smoke. I try to stick to my diet. It not easy in my house. My husband has to have his snacks and my daughter and her two children live with us. There are so much junk food in our house. I don’t have a lot of will power. As a result my diabetes has become worse.
beautiful!!! the colors is that together would be OUTSTANDING!! Lulu
This particular episode is one of my favorites, dear Lulu. I think this is the fourth time I’m watching it. You have no idea how much your videos are influencing my life in a positive way. Slowly but surely I am adopting your habits, and I feel so good when I eat clean. I truly feel like finding your TH-cam channel has been a gift to me from God. Thank you for being you!!! ❤
hello Linda!! I am thrilled to hear that you are adopting new habits of your own and that you feel so good!! I'm so glad you found my channel, I'm super happy you are here!! thanks for writing . . . Lulu 🌺
Enjoyed this very much Lulu ❤. I am glad you are sharing some of your life with us - and yes it is wonderful when people explain what they are eating thanks to you and your inspiration ! May we all get healthier together :)
hi Laura!! thanks for your note!! yes, "may we all get healthier together", you put it so well!! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 thanks Lulu !
I'm so proud that while having to raise my grandson I can get him organic fruits and vegetables. He is 18 months old and prefers them over any other foods. When my kids were young things were different and we ate a lot of cheap foods.
what a lovely story!! how fortunate that little boy is to have such a caring grandmother!! sweet story!! Lulu
JOY…..sooo important. Got rid of my old rickety Weight Watchers food scale last week from the early 1980s. It just reminded me of years of counting points, eating processed foods, food obsession, and constant yo-yo failure. I stopped counting after 15 times of joining WW. It did not work for me, as well as endless other diets. Eating whole foods in measured quantities is the way to go.
I ordered a FRESH new Ozeri food scale that you recommended - bright Royal blue, my favorite colour. New beginnings - I am soooo excited! New vision. I enjoyed seeing your breakfast. What a great healthy combo! Thanks for the continued health inspiration.
hey Bee!! thanks for your fabulous note to me!! you sound ready to make some changes, good for you!! YOU GOT THIS!! keep sharing, stay inspired!! Lulu
I could go on for days why I love watching your videos. I will just say, don’t stop. 😘
awwww Linda, thanks so much for such a sweet note. I appreciate it and I'm glad you enjoy my videos!! I'm so so glad you are here!! Lulu
I’ll be full time Lulu, in my van coming this May 1st. I new I wanted a TH-cam channel to document my journey. My channel is created but I am thinking my 1st video will be posted this Friday! I have to go through it for one final edit. Watching your videos really help me NOT procrastinate, so thank you for that! As per usual, you are so stinkin’ cute, especially with your kitty! Thanks for sharing your journey!
hello!! how exciting for you!! I look forward to seeing your debut video!! I had no idea what I was doing when I first started my channel, but I just did it anyway!! be sure to let me know when you've posted it!! and I assume your channel name is Eat Pray Van? what a clever name!! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 yes the channel name is Eat Pray Van. Named after my favorite book/movie! I love that you are just yourself and super genuine. One of my other favorite TH-camrs said if your going to do TH-cam to “Be Yourself”. (Your one of my favorites too ❤️) I’m from/born in NYC and I really love the “Bawston” accent LOVE IT! I’ll post on whichever is your newest video on Friday and let you know it posted! I can post a link to the video, thank you for wanting to watch I really appreciate it!!
that was a GREAT book!! LOVED IT!! yes, be yourself, totally be yourself. I'm not an actress so I would suck at that, I would never remember my lines!! a couple of times I wrote myself a little bullet list so I wouldn't forget to cover everything I wanted to talk about in a video, and then I forgot to look at the list!! LOL I can't NOT be myself if I tried. have fun with it!! I look forward to your first video!! mine is pretty cringy to watch, LOL
If not now…..when? You said that in a previous video and it really hit home with me. There are several things I have been putting off, one of which is taking better care of my health. So after three years of sitting on my couch and eating junk food, I have started walking again. And I also went out and bought a bunch of veggies and am actually eating them (they usually end up going bad in my fridge). The other saying that is now my motto I heard on your channel from your friend from Quebec, “I don’t have time for a bad time” those are words to live by. It’s hard to believe that a person I have never met has made more of an impact on my life than my family and friends. I am so grateful I stumbled across your channel. Thank you for being you, because you are awesome.
hello Donna!! I'm am thrilled to hear that you are walking and buying veggies!! YAY YOU!!! stay inspired, I'm glad you are here! Lulu 😊
Hi Lulu, breakfast sounds delicious and I love your Buzz Cut it suits you very well. Take care my friend and enjoy everyday all the day ling😊❤💕💕💪

Wow. ..kudos to you for quitting all that in such a short period of time. You should be really proud of yourself ❤️
hi Amy!! I feel so good, that's the true gift!! I knew my 60s were coming up and I was going to be a hot mess if I didn't make some serious changes NOW. I had no more time keep thinking about it. now at 64 years old, I have the life I want!! Lulu
I’m just about to start my van life journey so your tips are great - thank you! 🦋⭐️🧡

What a delightful person you are. It's refreshing to meet someone who thinks like me.
thanks Nancy, for such a sweet and kind note! Lulu ❤️
Hi Lulu, it's funny my nickname is also Lulu lol. We have a lot of similarities, I love eating Japanese sweet potatoes, I have a sign in my room that saids SIMPLIFY, I started to eat healthy about 5 years ago and organic, it's been a journey. I just stopped alcohol. I stopped Cigarettes about 11 years ago. I am also on a spiritual journey, I have been following Wayne Dyer work for years. I saw you are reading his book.. Anyways great minds think alike 😁😁. I am also learning from your videos. Thank you!
hi Lulu!! thanks for your note!! I appreciate it!! wow, we sure do have a lot of similarities!! we've both made amazing changes in our lives and we are seekers. I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
Love you Lulu! I just showed my mom was 90 years old one of your videos and she wants to come along with me when I build my van!❤😂
hello Pam! thanks for your sweet note!! tell mom I said hello!! YAY!! Lulu
Love your videos. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your journey 💞
Love the breakfast, looks delicious, I’m with you I love a bit of crunch and not too sweet. Love the new top!
I worked at a desk job for over 33 years and sitting so much being inactive didn’t help my weight or body. When Covid hit our country, my job had us working from home and shortly after that, it turned into a permanent layoff, which was a blessing in disguise. That was 3 years ago… I had time to go hiking, and work in my garden every day. We stopped eating in restaurants or eating restaurant food at all, which was a weekly ongoing thing. I stopped drinking soda. Can’t stand that sugary mess now… With those changes, i dropped nearly 50 lbs without even trying. It was a blessing. We still are not eating any restaurant foods. I hope as each season goes on, i continue to lose automatically because dropping the 50 feels wonderful to my body and my bones. I love cooking healthier foods but my wife is a suger baby and loves her sweets passionately. She nearly 84 and has issues with dementia so i don’t have the heart to take anything away like her ice cream that makes her so happy. She’s a tiny thing barely 110 lbs. I just try to get her to eat the good things too, but she’s a fierce little bull. LOL. Some days I succeed, some days I don’t. Your white sweet potatoes interest me greatly. I’ll have to find some. I love seeing your videos.
hi there!! thank you for sharing your weight loss journey with me!! those changes you made, made quite a difference, YAY YOU!! I'm glad you are here! Lulu
Hello from western MA! 😊 Born and raised in Boston myself. Just found you here and enjoying your videos.
hello Dawn!! thanks for your note!! so happy to know you are enjoying my videos. I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
You are an inspiration. I load my cart up with a lot of veggies now. Aiming for a pound of veggies for lunch and dinner with protein and minimal carbs similar to your meals. My family hasn’t complain yet.
If you plan a meet up for MA/CT/RI area, please announce it on TH-cam. I would love to join your group. I’m looking for ProMaster City as well. I will look seriously in July after we get back from Portugal with the family. This summer I have one camping trip with my girlfriend to RI. It is our girls annual camping trip. But I would love to do more than just one trip.
look at you, loading up that cart with veggies!! NICE!! enjoy them all!! a meet up sometime this summer sounds terrific! Lulu
Hi Luli, your videos are very inspiring. I’m glad you gave You Tube a try!
I'm a fan of you! You are so enjoyable to watch. Your uplifting attitude puts a smile on my face. If I were in your area I would love to have a cup of Java with you. With admiration from Minnesota.
hello RT, thanks so much for your lovely note, I'm so happy to hear you enjoy my videos, that makes me happy!! I'm so grateful you are here! Lulu
Always a pleasure, Lulu. I’m one of those that loves to hear about what others are doing even when I may not take all of the advice every day.
I try not to give advice, just kinda saying what I do!! I'm sure it sounds like advice or clearly is advice, but I do try not to do that!! everybody is just doing the best they can each and every day, and I get that!! Lulu
💚There’s an art to offering advice. You’re a talented creator. Glad you’re sharing your process. 💚
I love your videos because I'm learning so much for when I'm ready to go.
I love ya plants. You living the good life. I hope you are journaling your travels. It would be a great book of travels 🧡 to you and Barb
hey Barb!! yup, living the good life, for sure!! the journaling/documenting I'm doing is on this youtube channel and in my daily gratitude writing practice that documents everything in my life every single day!! Lulu
I just found you , Lulu, from some other comment suggestion I saw in my YT travels. My dietary choices are carnivore because I have 50 lbs of ugly fat to lose, I want to feel better, have more pep, and basically cure my sugar addiction. Best wishes always, Jax in CO
hi Jax!! thanks for your note!! stick around, stay inspired!! sugar is a rough one to let go of, but it was crucial for me!! Lulu
Oh i 4got to add I eat fruit for snacks or a small bowl if blueberries for dinner. So I guess it would be 40% veggies. 35% fruit 10% carbs 10% fruit. But I dint always eat too much because it elevates my blood sugar. I feel the same way about NY food since I changed the way to eat. I used t I crave mire food chips oatmeal w/ lots if brown sugar macaroni n cheese. Nit Amy more. All my food is coked in an air fryer - no room fir am oven- n I just love it ok never hungry between meals.

@@LulusWay64 have a beautiful day dear sweet Lulu ♥️
Ha ha I thought the peeling drinking cup had mountain scenes on it and looked good. Thanks for your wonderful food ideas and hauls!
haha!! nope, it's just a mess of a mug!!
Hi Lulu, when you showed the rebounder it reminded me when I had one. At the time my kids were all small and everyone jumped on it until one day it broke. Lol. Ohh memories. Well, I'm going to buy one. My kids are adult women and are married with children. Beautiful cat ! [ mama's baby].
hi Eva!! I love my little rebounder, it feels good to jump on it!! Lulu
Lulu I eat far left food than you just like you said to do and I lost 7 pound and 8 pound to go.. If I want to get to 144 most or less 136. All because of you. I grateful again thanks
YAY YOU!!! terrific!
Reading the same book now. Change your thoughts change your life
love the book!!!
Lula I thought your mug had a moutain and stream view..lol, and I thought I was the only one that gave lots of kisses to her furbabie. Our Furbabies are a joy in our lives. I lost one on Christmas Eve, but I still have my NewNew, she is older but loves her kisses also. New New is a womans cat she was abused after her first mom passed by the son, and I adopted her. Took several weeks for her to trust me, I have had her 10 years now. She loves to travel with me and I have never left her behind not even overnight, except when I had to have surgery. We are a pair....love you new blouse, looks so comfy, and the color is great on you!! Yes I cooked today , Fresh celery sticks and potatoes, and whole onions, with the skin on, the flavor was delicious, of course I removed the skin one I took them out of my Instant Pot, .."0" pressure baby, yeah, love it.
hey Sissy!! thanks for your note!! both of my mugs are peeling, they are so old!! but they are champs!! although it looks like my kitty girl enjoys the kisses, she actually hates it and tolerates me, she's a good sport!! when we got her at a little kitten, she came to us with her sister, we had the two little tuxedo kitties for year, but Skye died about 5 years ago, but India is still holding strong!! your dinner sounds yummy!! Lulu
Great video. Thanks for the words.
I watched today while I ate dinner. It was like we were having a meal together. I loved it! I eat very high protein and am really working hard on eliminating carbs. Bread is the main culprit for me. I have horrible skin reactions when I eat bread, pasta or too much sugar. Painful situations that could take weeks to heal, if they do fully. There are still naughty things I eat if they are given to me, but I have made a point not to buy them. It's hard to have this stuff in the house. But as long as 90-95% of my diet is protein and veg , I can control it. But I'd rather not have it at all. For some reason I'm good with rice🤷♀️ But I'm Working on it though🙌 oh my goodness, the cats face was hilarious. We have a neighborhood cat that adopted us. So I enjoy her every chance i get. Her actual family were renters and they moved and tried to take her but she came back on her own. Lucky us❤ and then I have my 10 year old Malti-poo that is the love of my life. I couldn't ask for a sweeter pup. I hope and pray to have her for many more years. That's awesome that Barb is coming to visit🎉 Stay beautiful Lulu~Moni
hey Moni!! thanks for your note!! I love the idea that you felt like we were eating together, I can imagine that!!! that's great that you are no longer buying the foods that bring you health troubles!! good for you!! keep up that 90-95% wellness and just keep "really working hard" . . . you are worth it!! Lulu

You are a joy!!!thanks for being here.
thanks Diane!! I'm glad you are here too!! Lulu
The grey cup, I thought it was a mountain landscape on it 😆. Your breakfast sounds delicious. I never thought of having cold Bata with 🍓seeds and nuts for breakfast
hey Berni!! you are the third person that thought my mug was a mountain landscape. and all this time I was thinking "geez Lulu, you go on youtube with this ratty old mug!!" LOL
I love your little “I’ll show ya” ❤… LOL that’s what I do to my kitty too 😂
Lulu I just found your channel and I am enjoying it so much! I have been trying to decide the next eating strategy and I love your food ideas, going to start implementing right away. My husband and I have been struggling with our energy levels and weight (he is under and I am over) ugh. Thank you for sharing your life, love your positive energy, you are a gem!
hi Debra!! thanks for your note!! so nice that you and hubs are on the same page, you both want to feel better. I'm glad you are here! Lulu
You are such an inspiration to me.
Great video!!! I love your kitty!!! She reminds me of my kitty Lucky that I lost in January 2022! I still miss her! Still have 2 kitty's and they have traveled all the way from Oklahoma to Florida and back in my RV! I just bought a Nissan NV2500 cargo van in February that I am in the process of building into a camper van! I am using Havelock wool to insulate mine! Its been a slow process for me with my bad back, hip and knee, but I am determined to do it! Looking forward to your next video!
hello Ann!! stay determined and get yourself on the road with us! it's WAY too much fun!! Lulu
@@LulusWay64 I am planning on going down to Corpus Christi in May and then to Hobbs New Mexico on my birthday in June! Want to be in the town I was born in for my 65th birthday!!!
Hello again Lulu ... I enjoy your video's so much ..very inspirational. Would love to know more about your life and how you got to be such a lovely happy content lady xx
hello Anne!! I'm not sure I could but that into words, but stay tuned and my example should provide the insights into how I arrived at such contentment. perhaps taking good care of myself, coupled with a spiritual journey which led me to an array of growth and different ways to view life . . . it's a great big package deal, and I'm committed to it!! I'm so glad you are here! Lulu
