I liked your mason jar visual! Unfortunately, the grapes though more healthy, would cost about $4.00 & the crackers would cost perhaps 25 cents. I'd rather eat grapes, but can't very often.
@@pamelaminor696 it’s so sad that unhealthy food is less expensive. But maybe you can cut back and save money in other areas of your life so you can buy the grapes vs the crackers. Life is all about the choices we make, and when it comes to health, I think spending a little more on the right food is the most beneficial. Just my opinion and the way I choose to live my life. Wishing you all the best ❤️
Hi HM..so i gained a pound. Not happy. But wonder what im doing wrong...can you give me a sample menu ..? Any suggestions...i was so frustrated . i went to a diner with husband and a friend after work and i had a turkey club......with rye bread. Im goin to try this again ...joint pain got worse so i started taking heal and soothe...it helps. Have to take 1-3 tablets 3 times a day. Its natural....any ad vice?
As a 35 year old mom of two who has been trying to succeed on a whole food plant based diet for about 6 years, I just wanna say you're awesome. Great videos. So real and down to earth. I have followed other youtubers for years and never found someone who makes me feel like I can do this 100% as a busy working mom. Great videos. Keep it up 💯
This makes me so happy to hear, not for me...for YOU! I am so happy that you find me in some way helpful. I totally get it, it can be so hard...but it doesn’t have to be, right? Wishing you all the best. You totally got this 👊🏻🌱
Diet can give you more protein 🎁 Protein-rich foods can help in speeding up the weight loss process. As protein keeps you full for long hours, it can be useful in losing weight. So, keeping in mind all the facts, we can say that a healthy and balanced diet is more important than exercise for weight loss!. myinsta @diettipsandplans
This is right where I need to be. I don't exclude ALL animal products but doing something close to this is the only way I've sustainably lost weight. Happy to learn from you.
Absolutely hands down probably the BEST video on this subject I’ve watched thus far! You are definitely my “lightbulb just went off again” moment. If “becoming plant based and winning” was a person! Thankyouuu!😁💖
"Calorie density" is one of those concepts that, once grasped, entirely TRANSFORMS the way you approach food!! When I first discovered this concept, it was like everything suddenly MADE SENSE!!! Thanks for educating the masses about this - everyone in the world needs to know about calorie density both for their own health and for society as a whole!! Thanks Tia!
I believe keto destroyed my health. Never lost more than 10lbs. I love your channel! I have loved all the recipes and it has really kick started my journey! Down 16lbs!
Thank you for breaking this down. After being an on and off again vegan and not understanding why I'm not losing weight but gaining I think this is a breakthrough for me. 🙏🏼
I just LOVE your videos! I could watch one every day. Not only are they informative and helpful but you're a complete natural in front of the camera with a great sense of humor. I feel like I'm watching a favorite show that's benefiting my life.

I never comment on videos, but I had to with this one! I am from Norway and I am having a hard time explaining to my parents why this way of eating is so good for them! (They are both trying to lose weight atm) English is not their first language, but you explain everything so good and talk so clearly and slow in this video, so this is perfect for them! Thank you so much
Awwww this makes me to happy. I appreciate your comment. It sounds like you really care for your parents and their health. I can relate to this. I appreciate you watching and wishing you (and your parents) all the best!
Day 3 of eating this way. Wanting to lose 50 pounds as well. I’ve done everything out there…every diet! Frustrated and hopeful that this is sustainable. I’m learning a lot from you. Thank you:)

Thank you for using the jars to show me the meaning of calorie density. You made it much easier to understand. I am considering a plant based lifestyle myself and your video really helps me to understand how to eat and lose weight at the same time. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
I just discovered you about 3 weeks ago, and you have been totally instrumental in my giving up oil. I'm one of those "fat vegans," and didn't understand why I gained the weight that I had lost (plus quite a bit more!) when I first went vegan over 5 years ago. After watching this video then (and today as a refresher), now I understand that I've been eating the "wrong" kind of vegan food! (I bought the starch book second hand on-line. My daughter thinks I'm crazy, since she's starch-phobic.) Thank you sooooo much! You are great, and I really "saw" the difference with your canning jars. Keep up the good work!
Im going to be challenging myself soon to start this plant base whole food “Diet” for 8weeks with hoping I stick to it after the 8weeks for good. I’m so happy that you are back making videos and this was another great one! 🤗🤗
I can't remember the last time I ate a white potato! For years I have erronously been trained to stay away from white potatoes - so I did. White potatoes were considered the "bad" starch and I am so excited to see that they are not. Thank You! Also, your hair is beautiful and I love the way you do your eye makeup!
I'm watch your videos again and again sometimes, after sometime, it's useful to do so, just to remind things in case forgetting, or to keep me strong to keep on to the way I'm eating the last two years. I smiled when you said to those who did the fat diet and say the lost weight, " hellooo your here watching" haha. It takes time to take off all toxins which kept in the body so many years, but never gain weight back with whole food plant based diet. And it's soooo easy to fix something to eat quickly, without keeping yourself stuck in the kitchen, I always have budges of different kinds of beans and veggies in the freezer. Keep it going!!!!
The example of the oil was great! It's hard to visualize how much oil equates to a certain amount of calories, so when you held up the jar and said that the oil inside was 360 calories, it clicked. I got it. Now I can *really* understand how I was using too much oil (when I thought that I wasn't). The entire video was GREAT, but the oil... that's the blessing in the lesson for me. Very, very helpful!! Thank you!!
I have fought a weight battle for most of my adult life. I am 66 years old and recently my blood work came back with A1C in the diabetic range. I’d like to give plant-based a good go as I know it would improve that too.
Liked and subbed! I actually lost quite a bit of weight on my own as well just by changing my diet, no additional exercise. I lost about 40lbs over the past year and a half. I strived to adhere to a healthy vegan diet, ate vegetarian when I couldn't eat vegan, and ultimately cut 90-95% of meat and dairy from my total diet. Always room for improvement. Bottom line- it's the diet, it's the food. Decrease your meat and dairy intake. Increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, fiber, beans, legumes, etc and you *will* see results. Great job.
This means so much to me, thank you. I try to make these videos as informative as I can for you guys. I remember always being so confused before I figured it all out and I want to help anyone who feels that way.
Hi . I just found your channel through the Mommy Vegan. I enjoy her channel so I figured I would enjoy yours as well. So happy I checked it out. This way of eating just makes so much sense. I love it. By the way your skin is beautiful. I really think eating plant based contributes to your healthy glow.
Hi there. Thanks for being here...so happy you came and checked my channel out. And thank you so much. Eating plant based has changed my life in so many way ❤️🌱
I am so glad that I found this video - I eat a plant-based whole food diet but my weight loss has stopped. I am going to buy The Starch Solution book right now.
A different perspective always helps and I'm so thankful for your easy -fresh presentation! Thank you! I'm figuring this thing out and you really helped me this morning!
This was a GREAT video! I liked the caloric density examples. Also, the example how to eat less calories, but same amount of food was EXCELLENT! Thank you!
Thank you so much. Wish I could have shown it with broccoli, but spinach will do. It’s really awesome. Totally works and still keeps you full and satisfied ❤️
BRAVO!! awesome video. I just started my plant-based journey, however, I was eating a good amount of avocados and oil to sautee' my veggies, now I know to cut the fat, and while my goal is not fat loss but to be healthier me, I can also stand to lose a few pounds on the way. thank you again for your excellent examples of comparing foods, it really does make a difference in how I view my plate.
Hi Tia, so grateful I stumbled on to your channel! I've been Whole-Food Plant Based for a while, but since helping my husband make the switch, I just realized I had begun eating some of the "vegan junk foods" I was using to help him transition from Standard American Diet--(which had given him heart disease, diabetes, asthma, and severe obesity!--not a very good "standard" huh?) I had never even tried the "impossible" and "Beyond" meat substitutes previously until he insisted he needed something like meat on the plate. Then I began GAINING weight, though he was losing...and I have at least 40 lbs to lose. Very frustrating, but I'm so grateful to find your clear explanation of the mystery!!! I won't continue making that mistake. Thanks for the encouraging and enlightening videos. I'm going to get out my 32 oz. Mason jars now!
Thank You Tía! You’re Awesome 👏 And Gifted In Communication! You Look Beautiful, Healthy & Fit! So Glad I Found You! I Lost -60 Pounds! But Plateau Especially After A Fall Accident.. You Have Given Some Great Durable Tips! ❤
Hi. What an excellent visual illustration. I am sure I have overdone it many times with nuts! Just snacking on them by the handful has probably added hundreds of calories to my daily intake! I love apples and actually feel full after I eat a good sized apple. Also the oil! Thank you so much for sharing!
Your story sounds exactly like mine. I just started the Starch Solution for Max weight loss one week ago and lost 1.3 kilos without restricting myself! This is unheard of for me. So excited to see how my body changes in the next weeks... Gotta lose around 8-9 kilos, my body will tell which is my healthy weight. Thanks for your down to earth videos.
My life has been plagued by yo-yo dieting. I have been counting calories for two years now and lost 135 lbs finally. But I have had to be a slave to my phone and the app I count calories on. I don’t eat much meat anyway and eat a lot of vegetarian meals. The mason jar thing is a great demonstration.
@Lisa Merritt congratulations on the weight loss. Like you though I have been a slave to my phone and app counting EVERYTHING. I am so over it! This new way of thinking and eating has been a game changer. It’s exhausting and an emotional roller coaster keeping track of every single thing. I am so glad to be done with that way of life. Have you felt better since starting? Also, have you lost anymore?
Hi Tia, I’m new to plant base eating. I’ve tried so many diets, but nothing worked for me. My daughter is vegan and told me about you, so I thought I’d give it a try.
Hi there - focus on getting healthy and you'll get it. This is all about changing your life and eating to improve our wellness and when we do that, we transform from the inside out! It's wonderful. Wishing you all the best!
I have been a watcher of your videos for about a month now. I just subscribed and I love how you keep me going. I just started my plant based diet 7 weeks ago. It was the hardest the first 3 weeks because my body had to adjust. I love how good I feel now. So much more energy. My family doesn't want to change, but I cook and they are eating a lot more fruits and veggies. Thanks for teaching me on my journey
Thank U for this. Well done! I, too, follow calorie density after yo-yo dieting from the age of 14-64!!! Yes... it’s been that long & it has been more than destructive to my mental & physical well-being. Calorie density, combined with 18:6 IF, has freed me from my usual gain & loss cycle of 30-50 lbs. per year. I eat most of my foods in their raw state, but I am eating about 25% cooked too. I feel fantastic when eating proper nutrition & like crap when I don’t... it’s that simple! My body is counting on me to feed it properly & I will do that this very day, while I still can! Blessings 2U! ❤️
This is a great video, As a mother of 5, I decided it was time to stick to a healthy change. I have been manipulating my plate without realizing it. I love that I can have rice and potatoes, I have been losing weight and still going, just started eating plant based foods, and walking 20,000 daily. I feel great! ✨
I just order your book from Amazon. Can't wait to get it. I feel it will help hubby transition to vegan a little easier. Love your videos, you a great inspiration.
I love you guys and you have been a great help in getting me started on my journey and I am thriving! I have been vegan for 10yrs and am finally learning how to eat right and treat my body right, it's such a simple process gosh, who would have thunk it!! Thank you guys!!
Thank you!! But for the viewers-> Everytime you hear the word “manipulated” drink a glass of water. Water goal for the day done! Hehe. J/K. Great info!
Just joined your Channel today and I am so excited I'm going to go for it. I did keto for a year-and-a-half but I want some fruit so I'm going to go vegan. So excited about this
Wow! Great video. I came to your channel from the Mommy Vegan and love this video. Your calorie density explanation with the jars is just brilliant! My husband snacks on nuts at night and I will be sure to share your video with him. Thanks! I'm excited to watch more of your videos. 😊
I've been following McDougal's book...but slipped into some bad habits...SEEING it in this video, just gave me inspiration...lost 80 lbs so far...up a couple of pounds due to "shlinking" back into more seeds, nuts, etc. -- that type of thing...this video was awesome for me to "see"...that others actually go through these things as well...thank you! :) Dawn @ Rich & Dawn in MN :)
I absolutely love this. Thank you so much. I am a visual person so this really hit home for me. At the moment I am battling a bit with a bit of IBS so working through what foods trigger it for me.
Thank you for the important lesson on calorie density. I always thought “healthy” oils, avocado & nuts are important fats needed for healthy body & weight loss but never thought about how calorie dense those foods are.
Really loved this! ❤️ especially enjoying the visuals. The oil is good to point out too cause you don’t always need to add it so it’s def unnecessary calories
I just found your channel. I love the visuals with the mason jars. I’ve tried every “diet” or way of eating multiple times, lol. Every one has challenges for me, but I would love to be successful with a low-fat WFPB diet. Potatoes are almost a trigger food for me in a way because I associate them with butter, cheese, and sour cream. 🤦🏻♀️ They taste so good like this. I’m not on dairy right now but I can almost not eat potatoes because of the strong positive memories I have of the aforementioned additions to them. It just reminds me of how boring they taste without that stuff and makes me feel deprived and sad. It turns me off to potatoes. I know it’s so mental, but does that make sense? So many WFPB TH-camrs put things like salsa, vegan chili, or saracha sauce on potatoes, but my stomach lining is so very sensitive to spicy things. I just can’t do that. So where does that leave me with toppings for potatoes? And plain potatoes are so well, plain. Lol I’m sorry for the rant. I will keep watching your vids for encouragement and inspiration.
I tried also the keto/Atkin’s diet as well as WW. I was losing some weight and then gained it all back. Specially after months on keto I was feeling miserable and dreaming about starches. Very helpful explanation of calory density! Thank you! ❤️🌸
Hi guys! Thanks so much again for watching. Make sure to give this video a like and comment and say hello. I love chatting with y'all.
Love your curly hair. 🤗 Thank you for sharing the info!
Excellent TH-cam❣️❣️❣️
I liked your mason jar visual! Unfortunately, the grapes though more healthy, would cost about $4.00 & the crackers would cost perhaps 25 cents. I'd rather eat grapes, but can't very often.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING EXAMPLES of HOW IT WORKS NEVER UNDERSTOOD IT UNTIL YOU GAVE THE EXAMPLES AWESOME
Yep, i did replace bread with potatoes that are full of minerals . Also potatoes aid weight loss as they have potasium.
Day 3 of eating this way. Wanting to lose 50 pounds as well. I’ve done everything out there…every diet! Frustrated and hopeful that this is sustainable. I’m learning a lot from you. Thank you:)
How did it go... Have you been able to lose weight this way?
yes how is it going, have you lost the 50 pounds
Congratulations you will be amazed🎉❤
Tia you are one of the kindest people I’ve ever met!❤️ you just shine!!

The recipes look very easy, simple and very healthy ❤️

That sounds delicious! I may need to do that this week 🙌🏻
This is such an educational video. I already know about this stuff but you really explained it well and I intend to share your video. Thank you!
Thank you so much. Happy you enjoyed.

Yes!! I have been there with the diet train and I'm trying to stick with my plant based eating.
I hear ya! You can do it - keep it easy!
Thank You Tía! You’re Awesome 👏
And Gifted In Communication! You Look Beautiful, Healthy & Fit! So Glad I Found You! I Lost -60 Pounds! But Plateau Especially After A Fall Accident.. You Have Given Some Great Durable Tips! ❤
I love the jar examples you used in this video. Makes choosing meals & snacks simple;)
So happy you enjoyed it!
Hi. What an excellent visual illustration. I am sure I have overdone it many times with nuts! Just snacking on them by the handful has probably added hundreds of calories to my daily intake! I love apples and actually feel full after I eat a good sized apple. Also the oil! Thank you so much for sharing!
Your story sounds exactly like mine. I just started the Starch Solution for Max weight loss one week ago and lost 1.3 kilos without restricting myself! This is unheard of for me. So excited to see how my body changes in the next weeks... Gotta lose around 8-9 kilos, my body will tell which is my healthy weight. Thanks for your down to earth videos.
How did it go for you after this post?
As someone on a plant based diet,im getting my proteins from nuts and kidney beans ,great video
Great video that explains the concept of calorie density. I must mention the cute dog snoozing in the background at the end! 😊
You changed my life
My life has been plagued by yo-yo dieting. I have been counting calories for two years now and lost 135 lbs finally. But I have had to be a slave to my phone and the app I count calories on. I don’t eat much meat anyway and eat a lot of vegetarian meals. The mason jar thing is a great demonstration.
Thank you for watching and excellent job on the 135 lbs! Way to go!
@Lisa Merritt congratulations on the weight loss. Like you though I have been a slave to my phone and app counting EVERYTHING. I am so over it! This new way of thinking and eating has been a game changer. It’s exhausting and an emotional roller coaster keeping track of every single thing. I am so glad to be done with that way of life. Have you felt better since starting? Also, have you lost anymore?
Hi Tia, I’m new to plant base eating. I’ve tried so many diets, but nothing worked for me.
My daughter is vegan and told me about you, so I thought I’d give it a try.
Hi there - focus on getting healthy and you'll get it. This is all about changing your life and eating to improve our wellness and when we do that, we transform from the inside out! It's wonderful. Wishing you all the best!
@@EstellaLynn really awesome
@@EstellaLynn Without exercise? That's amazing! Congrats!
I literally want to move in with you lol. Your tips are simplifying my life in a way I can’t explain
I have been a watcher of your videos for about a month now. I just subscribed and I love how you keep me going. I just started my plant based diet 7 weeks ago. It was the hardest the first 3 weeks because my body had to adjust. I love how good I feel now. So much more energy. My family doesn't want to change, but I cook and they are eating a lot more fruits and veggies. Thanks for teaching me on my journey
So happy you are here and feeling inspired. Way to go and way to be a great influence on your family! It’ll pay off I’m sure ❤️🌱
SURE HELPS YOU TO UNDERSTAND BETTER THANK YOU SO MUCH
Soo educational. Thank You!!! Love the visuals.
Happy you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching
Thank U for this. Well done! I, too, follow calorie density after yo-yo dieting from the age of 14-64!!! Yes... it’s been that long & it has been more than destructive to my mental & physical well-being. Calorie density, combined with 18:6 IF, has freed me from my usual gain & loss cycle of 30-50 lbs. per year. I eat most of my foods in their raw state, but I am eating about 25% cooked too. I feel fantastic when eating proper nutrition & like crap when I don’t... it’s that simple! My body is counting on me to feed it properly & I will do that this very day, while I still can! Blessings 2U! ❤️
So awesome, glad you enjoyed. Thanks so much for watching.
Love your channel ❤️
This is a great video, As a mother of 5, I decided it was time to stick to a healthy change. I have been manipulating my plate without realizing it. I love that I can have rice and potatoes, I have been losing weight and still going, just started eating plant based foods, and walking 20,000 daily. I feel great! ✨
That’s awesome! Best of luck to you
@@HealthyVeganMama thank you! ✨
I just order your book from Amazon. Can't wait to get it. I feel it will help hubby transition to vegan a little easier. Love your videos, you a great inspiration.
Oh thank you so much! Best of luck to him!
Great video. We make this so much harder than it has to be!! Thanks for simplifying it.
We really do. Glad it was helpful
I love you guys and you have been a great help in getting me started on my journey and I am thriving! I have been vegan for 10yrs and am finally learning how to eat right and treat my body right, it's such a simple process gosh, who would have thunk it!! Thank you guys!!
Haha so happy to be helpful to you.
Thank you!! But for the viewers-> Everytime you hear the word “manipulated” drink a glass of water. Water goal for the day done! Hehe.
J/K. Great info!
😂 that’s awesome
Plantastic 🎉 Love your channel ❤
Just joined your Channel today and I am so excited I'm going to go for it. I did keto for a year-and-a-half but I want some fruit so I'm going to go vegan. So excited about this
Hi there. So happy you are here. Thank you
Wow! Great video. I came to your channel from the Mommy Vegan and love this video. Your calorie density explanation with the jars is just brilliant! My husband snacks on nuts at night and I will be sure to share your video with him. Thanks! I'm excited to watch more of your videos. 😊
Hi there. Thanks for coming over and watching. So happy it was helpful! Awesome.
I've been following McDougal's book...but slipped into some bad habits...SEEING it in this video, just gave me inspiration...lost 80 lbs so far...up a couple of pounds due to "shlinking" back into more seeds, nuts, etc. -- that type of thing...this video was awesome for me to "see"...that others actually go through these things as well...thank you! :) Dawn @ Rich & Dawn in MN :)
So happy you feel inspired ❤️🙌🏻
Oh and I received your book and I've been reading it. LOVE IT!
So happy you are enjoying it. Thank you
I absolutely love this. Thank you so much. I am a visual person so this really hit home for me. At the moment I am battling a bit with a bit of IBS so working through what foods trigger it for me.
Excellent video. The visuals really make sense ! I three weeks in.
Amazing! So glad you like the video. Best of luck to you.
AWESOME DESCRIPTION -THANK YOU 😊👍
Great video and it’s wonderful to see pics of your pre-loss vs your current healthy looking self! Keep doing that, it’s so inspirational.
Okay I will note that. I always assume it’s enough just on the thumbnail, but I’m realizing it’s hard to see that.
I just received your book in the mail. I can hardly wait to read it!
Yay! I hope you enjoy it ❤️
Please do more examples on how to change up your plate. That was so helpful
So happy you found that helpful!
Thank you for the important lesson on calorie density. I always thought “healthy” oils, avocado & nuts are important fats needed for healthy body & weight loss but never thought about how calorie dense those foods are.
Really loved this! ❤️ especially enjoying the visuals. The oil is good to point out too cause you don’t always need to add it so it’s def unnecessary calories
Yes. You never need oil 🙌🏻🌱
I just found your channel. I love the visuals with the mason jars. I’ve tried every “diet” or way of eating multiple times, lol. Every one has challenges for me, but I would love to be successful with a low-fat WFPB diet.
Potatoes are almost a trigger food for me in a way because I associate them with butter, cheese, and sour cream. 🤦🏻♀️ They taste so good like this. I’m not on dairy right now but I can almost not eat potatoes because of the strong positive memories I have of the aforementioned additions to them. It just reminds me of how boring they taste without that stuff and makes me feel deprived and sad. It turns me off to potatoes. I know it’s so mental, but does that make sense? So many WFPB TH-camrs put things like salsa, vegan chili, or saracha sauce on potatoes, but my stomach lining is so very sensitive to spicy things. I just can’t do that. So where does that leave me with toppings for potatoes? And plain potatoes are so well, plain. Lol I’m sorry for the rant. I will keep watching your vids for encouragement and inspiration.
I’m definitely going to try creating a similar plate like this demonstration. Love the jars and visuals 🤩
A-mazing explanation!! Thank you Tia!! 😮
Great demo on calorie density-the comparison with jars drove the point home for me!
So happy you enjoyed. Thanks for watching.
Excellent video! Thank you for this! Soooooo helpful 😊😊😊
So happy you enjoyed it. It’s my pleasure.
Thank you 😍😍😍Great information ..!!!!! You made it Simple to understand
Awesome. So happy you enjoyed!
Thank you for sharing and educating us. ❤
Great video Tia 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
That example was fantastic
Thank you
Glad you liked it!
I tried also the keto/Atkin’s diet as well as WW. I was losing some weight and then gained it all back. Specially after months on keto I was feeling miserable and dreaming about starches.
Very helpful explanation of calory density! Thank you! ❤️🌸
It’s my pleasure. Yes, we crave starches for a reason...we need them. I felt terrible restricting them for so long too. Happy you found your way ❤️
