7 Healthy Foods That Can Sabotage Your Weightloss Journey

Many healthy foods can actually contribute to weight gain. This is especially true in menopause. Fish and chicken are touted as the number #1 weight-loss food, but I beg to differ. Women over 50 tend to have a harder time using belly fat and subcutaneous fat. Nothing works!

The obsession with getting enough protein is a marketing myth. Worry about being short of fibre, not protein. And the body and brain's preferred food is a healthy unrefined carb

Hi Sophie! This is Angie. Thanks for the superb video! I love that you don’t just tell us what we shouldn’t have, but you offer amazing alternatives! You’re the best! 🌸💝🌸💝🌸💝🌸💝

Thanks for the nothing fishy recommendation, i was so surprised when i found they were a British company so i will be ordering ! And giving up my fish omega 3 .

[@dawnnash5301]

Hi Sophie, I think you're amazing ! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm going to try the Wild rice. What is your opinion on Organic Jasmine or Basmati White 🍚 Rice? It probably does raise your blood sugar as well?

[@imqsqs]

I have IBD and autoimmune disease, I just dont know what to eat or where to start, amazing video btw!

[@carolellis894]

I love your advice and your jeans?? Could you tell me what brand?

[@dianariglet4257]

Listen to Sophie! I have followed her suggestions (actually am 100% whole food plant based now) and lost weight, plus lowered my body fat. I do strength training too 3xs a week and I love long brisk walks. I like Sola or Kind granolas which are high protein, low sugar. Her chia seed breakfast pudding is delicious and easy. I've added wild rice, lots of seeds, nuts, hemp hearts, legumes, veggies, sprouts and fruit. NO OIL! I make a yummy tahini salad dressing, with balsamic vinegar, fresh herbs and a little salt and pepper. Thank you, Sophie!

Hi Sophie would love to see a What I eat on day from you 💕

I do not see the recommendation for the Groats. Would appreciate that link! Thank you!

[@juliemitzel383]

Thank you for this video. As of the moment, I don't see a link in the info box for where you were going to refer us to get oat groats. I actually have some arriving today from Azure Standard, so I was happy to hear you mention them. However, I would like options of where I can order oat groats from. Can you please add a link to the box? Thanks!

Just found yr channel & it's wonderful . Speaking abt cooking w oil , I found a recipe for healthy saute sauce that is 1 cup veggie broth w 1 teaspoon of cornstarch & simmer that for 7 min & store in fridge . This is from Dr Neal Barnard . It's so wonderful . Love yr different shows that are so informative .

[@lisagothier7477]

ok thanks i need that sauce recipe!!!

[@tracybownes7612]

What was the bottle you had please when you were recommending the dates as a sweetener ?

[@patriziaverrelli4657]

Sophie, you look great! I don't necessarily need to lose weight, 5 lbs wouldn't hurt though. I did lose 15 lbs 1.5 years ago. but, I would love to keep it off. I have been on a plant based diet for 14 years. Recently, I make a lot of bowls, and stir-frys. I use, about a tablespoon of coconut oil in my stir-frys, and water, lots of fresh ginger, lol. What can you substitute for the oil when making a stir-fry? xoxo

[@kevywilliams3304]

Do you do online coaching ??

[@gwenritch]

I use pure maple syrup if I need a sweetener in my dressings. Thanks

[@nvp1137]

thank you for this video! I immediately went and looked at my almond milk carton ingredients... Sophie can you tell us what exactly it would say about the oil..like coconut oil, palm oil?" What would it specially list as an oil? thank you!!!

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

It's usually the second ingredient on the list - any kind of oil should be avoided. Different brands use different oils. Just avoid any plant milk with oil.

[@kevywilliams3304]

I tried to sign up for hour hour coaching ?

[@helpimlost.62]

What's your opinion on rice cakes please.

[@d.morgan9247]

Doing plantbased and need to lose 60 lbs. All put on in one year. 53 years old. Switching to plant based. Concerning healthy fats, how can i get the right amount of it, without putting on weight. If seeds, then what is the minimum I should eat. Would 1 T. Of ground flax seed be enough for healthy fats?

[@shannoncook9915]

I was whole plant based for 2 years. I felt great for the 1st year but going into the 2nd year I started getting very thin hair, brittle nails & my body just started feeling like I was lacking something. I started adding organic, grass fed meat back into my diet along with eggs once or twice a week and almost instantly started feeling better. I'm sure plant based is good for some but not all. Any suggestions? Anything I could have been missing?

[@breevestal]

Me and my whole family had the same experience. We buy meat from local farmers now.

[@cherylpenrod8768]

Just a question about the avocado oil. If you don't suggest using oil to cook food what do you suggest?

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Veggie broth

[@lf7065]

Or water

[@sandyr7210]

My soy milk is Natura unsweetened…it has no oil but it has a lot of different vitamins added…would that still be good?

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Yes!

[@wanda18221]

Do you recommend molasses?

[@poodlepup1]

hi from Australia... just found your channel. I have been eating plant based for 2 yrs. I am in late 60's , and have a lot of belly fat that I can not shift. I have a chick pea omelette each morning with soy milk and shredded kale, swiss chard, mushrooms, red onions and tomatoes chopped up in a container that I add to the mix ... this on top of avocado on Burgin oat, grain toast. This fills me up till lunch and then I don't really feel like eating.. what am i doing wrong... i have around 500mls of unsweetened almond milk in 2 shots of coffee and ice with 2 tbl maple syrup.. this is only sugar i eat.

[@luluandmeow]

No maple syrup and no avocado

[@sl4983]

That's a huge amount of ingredients for a breakfast. There may be lectins in there that cause leaky gut.

[@sl4983]

Also 2 tbsp syrup in coffee is actually a lot of sugar

[@magorzata1439]

Unfortunately, seeds have the same amount of calories as nuts (some a little less, some even more), the only alternative is to exclude them (or limit them to 1-2 per day) for the duration of weight loss.

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Yes but we need our healthy fats too.

[@magorzata1439]

@@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen Omega 3 is found in algae, and omega 6 is pro-inflammatory anyway. An overweight person carries fat on himself, putting extra fat in his mouth, even if the healthy one adds it to his waist. The ingested fat does not evaporate magically, it stays with us, and it is the easiest source of energy for our body.

[@SunnyDaysBlueSkies]

One swap I made is air fried chickpeas instead of croutons. :)

Do not fry!!!!

@@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen This is the result I found on the study you quoted on oats: Conclusions: Overall evidence supporting the alleviation of inflammatory response by oat intake was poor, calling for future studies including a larger sample size to confirm the findings. 😐

[@sl4983]

Salmon is hardly inflammatory. Omega 3s are anti inflammatory.
