    Fruit! I had an aha moment recently and realized that I wasn't eating fruit. I realized that I internalized some of the messages that fruit are too high carb and not good for you. I was actually watching Dr. Mike take Dr. Gundry to task for his villainizing of fruit when i realized what i had been unconsciously doing. When you consider how many servings of fruits and vegetables we are supposed to have in a day, how could you realistically do that with only vegetables? I'm not in the mood for broccoli at breakfast even though i love broccoli. So intentionally buying snacky fruit like oranges and apples has been a game changer for me for getting more servings of fruits and veg.

      When I was on keto I only really ate rasberries and blue berries. Not because I believed other fruits were bad due to higher carb content but simply because it didn’t fit into the way I chose to eat at that time. Now I no longer follow a ketogenic lifestyle and eat whatever fruit and veg I enjoy. Like the 1KG strawberries I picked up yesterday😊. But yes some of these doctors demonise fruit which is crazy.

    One thing that has really worked for me is to make the same salad always. I'm not a salad person and before this I would struggle to add fresh greens to my meals, so know I just do fresh spinach, cherry tomatoes, olive oil, lime juice and salt, it's literally the simplest base but that way I can add stuff along that I have on hand (avocado, crisp quinoa, cucumber, etc) and I don't have to figure out a whole different salad. It's somewhat automatic now and that means that a third of my meal will be greens.

      Just eat more ground beef. Saturated fat is not harmful. Fatty red meat is what humans have survived and thrived on for thousands of years, but it somehow became bad for us in the last 50 years. Red meat consumption is as low as it has ever been, and people are more unhealthy than they have ever been. That’s because of terrible advice from doctors and “dietitians” like this whose training is controlled by big food companies.

    I recently turned 38 this year and my goal is to be my healthiest possible by 40. My focus has been: quality sleep, sit-down breakfast, drinking water throughout the day and variety with exercise: gym, walking, yoga at home.. etc. I no longer feel the need to kick my ass every single day. Today a 45 minute brisk walk where I still broke a sweat and got some vitamin D in the sun was just what I needed. I also leave time for my husband, family and kids, friends, hobbies as my life isn’t entirely wrapped up in this. I see these few focuses as things that add to my life. Oh the last thing I do is delete my social media apps every evening early on so I can’t doom scroll before bed. Now I actually sleep or read books 😅.

    I’ve maintained my 60 pound down mark for a few months now ☺️ I gained a lot of weight in very short periods of time as a teenager from being on certain medications. Shitty mental health, emotional abuse, and disordered eating habits being pushed from family made the weight gain even worse despite my desperate efforts.
    Moving out of my family’s house and getting properly diagnosed and medicated for ADHD is really what made the difference. The last year or two of college I completely gave up on weight loss. I gained even more at for a while, but then I started focusing on other things that actually made a difference. Treating my mental health and having a more holistic focus made the weight loss an almost unintended consequence.

    My best behavioral tactics are:
    1. Buy a microwave steamer (I have a collapsible silicone one) and make TONS of steamed veg that are easy to slip into any meal. Right now, I'm hooked on steamed Taiwanese cabbage which is great to sub in alongside rice with Asian dishes, but I also just like eating with some kimchi!
    2. Buy salad kits if you can't keep up with buying all the components. Easy to switch up flavors, have a side salad every meal, and also easy to throw in rotisserie chicken for a complete meal.
    3. Put all snacks (like industrial cookies/chips snacks) into a box. I noticed that once they were in a box, even if easy accessible, I no longer got the visual cue to eat them just from passing by.

    When I’m stressed at work, my hunger cues disappear. I’ll go hours and hours without eating and not realize it until I’m STARVING. So when busy season hits, pre planning my meals and adding reminders on my calendar makes a huge difference. When I’m not stressed I can depend on my intuition to not need the reminders, but Abbey’s right: there’s nothing wrong with implementing these “hacks” to ensure you’re properly fueling your body throughout the day.

    I've been using pureed cauliflower to thicken soups and stews since my fiance seems to be able to taste beans in anything and he hates them. Adding various pureed squash helps too! And using sweet potato! Adding purreed carrots, beets, celery, and zucchini into my tomato sauce works wonders as well.
    I've been trying to get better about what I'm eating by using a lot of the tricks people use for picky kids. Being on the autism spectrum, i have a lot of texture issues with many vegetables, so being able to puree them into sauces, soups, and baked goods has been such a great decision for me. I've also been doing meal prep more consistently now, usually 2-3 veg premade per week, 1 carb, and 2-3 meats, alongside having other snacks like raw carrots, string cheese, granola bars, olives, jello, nuts, etc. though I weigh out my servings of nuts so i don't over eat since the only nuts i like are cashews lol.

    This is something i have always loved about your channel. While some of us need to lose weight for health, it is about health, not restriction. I have a problem with the idea of diets that villianize any particular food. We should eat the rainbow, enjoy carbs, fats, and meats, and learn to listen to our bodies, not ignore them while we starve ourselves.
    It is why, after much research, i decided WW is for me. I know you dislike the program, but it actually aligns very closely with your points here and elsewhere:. eat a broad range of foods without villianizing anything, eat more protein, fruit, and veggies, and make healthy choices a lifestyle instead of crash dieting. The points and zero point foods help me make wise choices. I eat lots of lean meat and eggs and fruit and veggie, and then i save my points for my healthy fats, like nuts and cheese and cream and butter, and my carbs like sourdough bread. It helps me not over eat and lose weight while never going hungry, because every meal and snack is well balanced.
    But that said, i had this mindset and chose WW as a tool to help me. Many who choose it just dont get it and are stuck in diet mode. They need to come here and listen to you.

    I love the tip on getting more NEAT, it's something I've been trying to do lately so I'm glad to see the research backs it up. I'm a software developer so I can end up spending long periods of time in deep focus shrimped over my desk and barely moving. I have a harder time focusing when standing so I've found an under-desk elliptical to be a good compromise for getting some blood flow and some NEAT during the work day. I try to make sure I also stand up and move around a bit when I come up for air so to speak, but it's been nice for keeping my legs in motion during the times when I might accidentally go an hour and a half or so without standing up.

      It's so strange to be told to fidget more as an adult though. I remember being yelled at constantly as a little kid for fidgeting and moving too much.

    Hi Abbey, I just wanted to say thank you for sharing all this knowledge with us. You helped me heal my relationship with food and with my body. Today I follow a diet for crossfit (which is what I do almost every day) and running. But still, when I don't feel like following the diet, I know how to keep eating healthy thanks to you and my dietitian (who thinks like you).

    One thing that has helped me dramatically is decreasing the meal prep level, which sometimes becomes a chore. I now cook veggies, protein, and carbs to mix and match them throughout the week. It also makes it easy to track my calories as I am in a recomposition phase. This is a great video. Thank you!

    Great video as usual! All great health tips (not just for weight loss). Would love if you can do a video on nutrition during pregnancy being that I'm 25 weeks and been finding myself letting nutrition slide.... (not weight-wise, just been busy and/or not feeling great so eating less protein and veg). Thanks for everything you do, you're a superwoman! :)

May I suggest a video for how to plan meals for people who get back home really late and need to eat very late dinners at around 10:30/11:00p.m. I work evening shifts and I have a long commute for reference, so I cannot eat a proper meal from 17:00 to 10:30/11:00p.m. Thank you so much for your incredible content!

    I love adding Franks Red Hot, salsa, kimchi, Greek yogurt, mustard, dill relish, and even pickle or banana pepper juice to things!
    -Plain Greek yogurt can usually replace mayo in recipes
    -Banana pepper juice is great in things like Greek (pasta) salads!
    -Yellow mustard is really good on hard boiled eggs

    I use minced mushrooms with TVP or lentils (alternate plant-based protein source) to replace minced beef in my pasta dishes. Made it for my Italian mother-in-law and it passed the test! I've also used blended white beans and savoury yeast to replace white sauce - not only tastes great, but also gives my pasta sauce a protein boost!

    I think I have been doing that NEAT thing since I started tracking steps. I realized that I could get more mileage from taking the things to a spot one by one, or at least in multiple trips, and so sometimes I would go back and forth in my kitchen and rack up half a mile taking things to the trash and then go back to getting my stuff to take wherever in my home. #adhd too and undiagnosed for me for about 45 years.

    so far I agree with all of these tips and actually use them! the adding veggies to stretch sauces, meats etc, the arsenal of healthy sauces , the adding veggies to my takeout! the only one that doesn’t seem to work for me is the full fat dairy, I eat full fat dairy when I’m eating out for sure, but at home i usually go for the lower calorie option, to me it tastes just as good, im an ex binge eater and my fullness cues aren’t the best, so even if something contains more fat and should fill me up more it doesn’t, so I like the low cal options at home, the thing is you can’t ONLY use low cal options, that’s when the problems come

    If intuitive eating is the party, for me, ADHD is the party pooper that regularly makes me forget to eat, so I completely miss my hunger cues and end up overeating. 😂 I love the idea of setting alarms, and I’m totally going to try that because waiting until I’m so hangry that I inhale my food doesn’t seem very intuitive either.

    • @sofiab2568
      @sofiab2568 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      My adhd does the opposite! The number of times a day that I put my head in the fridge looking for something (never know what it is until I find it) is just uncountable. But, hunger crushing combos actually work really good for me! It keeps my blood sugar even enough for not wanting "something" pretty much all the time 😅

    I’ve been adding fat back into my diet after being afraid of it for so long! It helps me feel full all day. We keep fresh fruits and veggies around for snacks. I also have dessert every single night; apples and caramel, pineapple and cool whip, however we can add more fruits in. (:

    For any dish that’s using soy sauce as a flavor base I like to use half ground meat or ground impossible meat and half crumbled extra firm tofu, for anything tomato based I do half ground meat half lentils or mushrooms, and for anything with a savory stock like base I use half meat have mushrooms. This is mostly for budget, and because my partner is vegan it’s a great way to diversify protein sources
