      Boiled eggs with shell can be kept even outside of the fridge for a couple of weeks. In Germany it is common to keep them outside. They need to be fully cooked at around 10 minutes.

    The key to eating healthy - in addition to meal prepping - is to accept that the first 2-5 days of eating clean is going to cause some major physical and emotional suffering (craving/resistance/sugar-withdrawal headaches/restlessness) but if you can tell yourself it's going to get worse before it gets better than you'll be aware of the oncoming pain and face it head on in order to to make that transition.

    • @JNYC-gb1pp
      @JNYC-gb1pp 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      @Coleen Nicolas Same here. Huge headache. First time I ever did a fast the the first day I felt sick. By 6pm I broke the fast and ate a huge bag of Skittles and then a pizza and some chips and on and on!! Though I've done it many times since and your body gets used to it. I find that now if I'm not able to eat I don't feel sick or headachy or angry - it just fades and I don't think about it.

      ZodiacGuesser You could also do a lower “degree” of prepping. I personally don’t like reheated or cold food either, but what I do do is preparing the ingredients for what I want to make beforehand. For example, I’ll spice/fill a chicken breast and wrap it in aluminium foil, so i just need to toss it in the oven later. Or I’ll cut up potatoes and other veggies and put them in a container with spices and some oil and also just toss them in the oven when i want to have them.
      If you have time to cook from scratch every day, that’s great. But most people are too worn out and would otherwise just grab an unhealthy microwave meal or similar :(

    • @Pharmafairy
      @Pharmafairy 5 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      ZodiacGuesser I believe your personal reasons against meal prepping are more of an exception. I didn’t mean to convince you to do it, I was just explaining why it can work for most other people.
      I do get your point about the frustration about “making food without eating it afterwards” that’s why I usually meal prep before or while making that days dinner haha. Your other points are valid reasons too ofc, I just don’t personally relate to them. Everyone should just do what works for them ofc :) it’s great that you found a way to do things for you, since it seems to be important for your lifestyle!

In short, after watching your videos, my 13 year old daughter makes the perfect soft boiled eggs. We stopped buying Hummus from Costco. Your home made hummus tastes much better. We purchased the kitchen aid spiral, we now make zucchini noodles instead of pasta. We love your roasted veggies dish with the Brussel Sprouts, and Broccoli. Not to mention, I now eat broccoli. That is one of the veggies that I simply couldn’t eat all my life. We also dip baby carrots and celery sticks in your hummus dip. We pack our own lunch. You truly changed our lives. Best of all, I’M LOOSING WEIGHT. No wonder you are in shape. We can’t thank you enough.

      It’s true that you can lose weight without dieting by using natural herbal extracts, and here are the top 7 herbs that will help you do just that: Fennel seed, L-Carnitine, Gymnema Sylvestre, Konjac root, Green tea, Ginger root and Guggulsterone. The real purpose of losing weight with herbs like these isn’t to help you shed pounds as quickly as possible, but to ensure that any weight you do lose comes from your unhealthy fat stores instead of your healthy muscle tissue.

    Yes please more Meal Prep videos! Especially for beginners!
    I’m so over my head most the time when it comes to choosing making and even wanting to eat when it’s time. All the guidance helps. I’m taking it one step at a time. First step, organize and de clutter my fridge and cabinets. Maybe start on a minimal amount of prep today and just keep going. I’m often afraid that what I make will give me a headache or somehow not be satisfactory, so I have to learn to be easy on myself and eat things even if they’re not perfect. With practice makes perfection but I really need the consistency factor… Maybe I’ll get myself a new set of Tupperware for Christmas to inspire this to really work instead of stressing looking through things at every meal.
