Regarding ordering take out: Me and my fiance are trying to save money and live healthier. We (nearly) always plan on cooking at home but used to fall back on ordering take out as soon as the recipe wasn't a success, we were missing an ingredient or something like that. My fiance came up with the best idea ever: Open our own "fast food restaurant" in our kitchen! We have agreed on and printed a little menu and make sure to always have the ingredients for the items on the menu at home (french fries, buffalo wings, burgers etc.). This works really well for us and so far we're not "abusing" the system, we only "go there" once or twice a month and when we do we make a deal out of having one of us taking and making the order, and we also play some happy restaurant music while the order is being made. Silly? Yes, but it works. Healthy? No, but it's healthier than ordering take out (air fried french fries etc.) Money-saving? For sure, the same meal "costs" about 75% less than at the restaurants It also feels a lot less restrictive than cutting junk food out completely. Maybe this is obvious for other people but for us it really was a game changer :D

[@emmafield9770]

Smart!!! What a good and fun idea to find something that works for you! Making it at home is probably better and healthier. All in moderation! Fun! Amazing idea ❤

[@kalistabest6511]

Genius. I love that you totally play into it, too.

[@deyx2592]

Penicillin is not only not outdated, but actually one of the most powerful antibiotics humans have access to! Also, for antibiotics to work you have to *always* finish the prescribed course, otherwise the bacteria causing the infection might become resistant to that antibiotic 😶

[@xmangoteax]

As a physician, I came to the comments to say exactly this. Thank you!!

[@texbecks6682]

Yeah, outdated would mean it doesn't work anymore. It's incredible and should be respected.

[@88WWitch]

I believe she said in a previous video that she stop the penicillin because her doctor told her to and they gave her the shot at that point. Otherwise I totally agree with you.

[@stephaniemoore-fuller9082]

That's outdated advice. The latest medical thinking is to NOT finish the course if you do not need it. Not finishing the course is actually better for antibiotic stewardship (preventing resistance). One of many articles: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5661683/

[@chervs]

I'm allergic to penicillin 😭

[@danielleshanti]

I hear you on the avalanche! A thing that helps me is to remind myself there's a lot in between "cooking from scratch" and "ordering food." I chuck some rice in the instant pot, open a can of beans, jar of salsa, tub of spring mix. Boom, burrito bowl I could happily eat every day, and almost no effort, thank goodness. And if you really, really are exhausted, buy the packets of pre-cooked rice, or any number of ready meals, frozen or heat up pouches, and eat some spring mix on the side. That's a really impressive amount of prep! Well done!

[@bloodorangemoon]

Great tips! I will open a can of black beans and put them over some blue corn chips, add some prepped chicken breast, cheese and one of those little serving size containers of guacamole, jalapenos, salsa, cilantro if I have it, bam dinner! I honestly think all or nothing is just not sustainable. I have been following an 80/20 philosophy in my latest fat loss drive and it was been working out for me so far! I don't obsess, I can pivot if meal prepping doesn't work out or I get really busy and not freak out because I don't have any strict RULES

[@itsIrisdescent]

'I'm the type of person that will wing it until I die' - I felt that one

A year or two ago, my favorite KZbinr randomly said that, when things feel hard to start, she acts on every urge that’s positive right in that moment. I wrote it on my whiteboard and it’s definitely motivated me many, many times. I’m happy to see you following that mindset still!

"You threw in some half-burpees, Grace. You'll be hearing from my lawyer." 😂😂😂

[@dollie3113]

You put too much pressure on yourself Bea. Just go out for a walk and enjoy your time instead of trying to figure out what's next, what you need to do now, tasks ... plans. They are all good but you do not need to depend on their success or even their existence to feel okay. Happiness is not a goal, it's just something that comes and goes like any other emotion. We just need to strive for some kind of peace or stability that helps us keep moving on when the other emotions come in to play.

[@aww_its_laura2125]

Excellent advice!

[@plumdutchess]

Wow, that sounds so logical and mindboggling at the same time! Thanks for sharing.

For whoever needs to hear this. Quick way to wash the blender: rinse out right away, refill with warm water and a little bit of dish soap, blend soapy water, rinse again and BAM! clean!

[@nina_wired]

Relatable. I’ve been in my gym clothes for 6 hours and have done everything except workout. Baked bread, did laundry, organized the guest room, did dishes, shovelled snow…now currently watching this video… But since you finally did it, I guess I will too! 😂

[@LindaC616]

Hey, even with the guy next door and the guy across the street doing most of my sidewalk, I still spent an hour to one and a 1/2 hours shoveling around my car, clearing my car , and my top step plus the patch that the snow plow leaves at the bottom of my driveway. That's enough --an hour or an hour and a 1/2 of slushy snow is enough of a workout.

[@nina_wired]

@@LindaC616 Twas but a light dusting of snow today lol. But I hear you, shovelling snow can be a lot of work!

[@adjappleton]

Try to think of it this way: thank goodness u were had good endurance B4 u got sick. Otherwise u probably wouldn't be able to walk up the stairs or would be day-napping every day just to recover. Being that sick will take you at least 2-3 healthy days for every sick day to recover. U got this😊!

Freezer meal advice! Double and freeze. 1-2 times a week double a dinner you like and freeze half. Boom freezer meal with no extra effort!

[@michellebee1991]

Such a good idea!

[@bloodorangemoon]

I cook most my meals like this now, one for now one or two for later!

[@Museofmemory]

Something to remember when you're recovering from a respiratory infection is that it FEELS like you've lost more progress than you have. The muscle you've been building hasn't vanished, but everything's going to feel harder and make you more tired because your oxygen exchange is less efficient while your lungs are healing. Keep at it! Focus on breathing through your workouts, take it slow and steady, lots of little tiny breaks to breathe. Maybe get some controlled breathing exercises from your coach. It'll get easier as the inflammation in your lungs recedes, though that can take a few weeks post infection. But, take heart! You're not actually back at square one! Your lungs just aren't at full speed yet.

[@louisegaudet5861]

I recommend freezer "dump bags" which you just throw in the instant pot frozen with water. So handy

[@suzielee]

Bambi and Fox and the Hound were my traumatic childhood movies lol.

[@annar8232]

Meeee too! My mom said I would just sit on the floor and cry when she left the fox in the woods. I was like 3! And she let me watch it everyday lol

[@LeiaLaureline]

Mine is The Land Before Time and a Swedish children's show called Rädda Joppe, död eller levande! (Save Joppe, dead or alive!) - about a kid constantly loosing his toy stuffed animal, Joppe, and the anguish that naturally follows forcing the adults to bend over backwards to get the toy back. It was a sort of horror series for kids and gave me nightmares for days, despite it being normal for kid's shows in Scandinavia to have an undercurrent (or just plain upfront) way of always portraying the harsh realities of life. Luckily today I can relive the horror here on YT (the one with the combine harvester is the worst!) kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4W4mIKgbpaLicU

[@KatjeKat86]

Pinocchio and ET where my childhood trauma movies. I know ET is not a cartoon but it was more terrifying than actually watching R rated movies of the small child.

[@theirishcailin333]

You should try one of those ice cube trays that makes 1 cup ice cubes for soup portions! That way you can defrost only one or two servings instead of the whole bag. I use them for pasta sauce too

[@jswizz43]

The percentage of your viewers that actually watch your videos is higher than nearly any other KZbinr I watch. Just wanted to throw it out there that you’re doing great work!! I really went down a rabbit hole while I was up in the middle of the night with the baby. 😂

[@shawnm9874]

It's funny u mentioned balto, little foot and brave little toaster! My 22year old son loved those growing up and actually still does. This is the first time I've commented on u so I also want to say although you're probably half my age, i still really enjoy your videos. You're funny, honest, and positive. Keep it up

[@alijohnson152]

How is every part of this so so relatable! The tiniest thing throwing my routine completely off, the exclusive winging it of everything, the losing strength instantly from stopping working out, the overthinking of the smallest task for months procrastinating me from doing it, even the adult braces question lol. Thanks Bea for making us all not feel so alone in the journey

[@arteinighters]

Bea you don't understand how much I love your videos fr I've been having a rough weird time since the end of Dec, I had 2 family members pass away during these two months and gosh I feel weird with everything going on, I just feel overwhelmed and I tend to feel stuck in many different aspects of my life and not seeing any progress even if I work hard is super discouraging. You get up and keep going every single time, and that's life I guess and I think that's beautiful. Thank you for being such a big inspiration and motivation to me

[@milanaspe1]

Penicillin is an extremely responsible choice for your provider to start with. There are certain bacteria that *by definition* can’t develop resistance to it. It may feel frustrating as if you aren’t trained in their field, but it’s actually a sign your provider is practicing responsible, evidence-based medicine. And those providers are good for all of our health in the long term ☺️

[@Kimbojangles]

I haven’t even watched your whole vid yet but “The Brave Little Toaster” is a core memory for me. I spent SO LONG as an adult trying to find this one song that was in it, but on my journey to find it, I found out just how insanely deep that movie is! It’s actually crazy!

[@gulsumkk]

Bea, I'm in a similar situation. I've been sick for months and have difficulties getting back on track. Feeling tired is absolutely normal and getting better on it needs not just only practice but better health and time. I wish us all the strength to do it ❤

[@susanomand]

Fab video as always. Little tip for filling freezer bags with hot liquid/sauces - open the bag and put it into a jug or bowl with the top edge of the bag folded over the top edge of the jug. Helps to keep the bag open and stable without having to hold it.

[@hollywebster6844]

I can so totally relate to the temptation to slide into all or nothing thinking when recovering from an illness or injury. It's so frustrating. I've been very ill for 2 years and just when I was thinking I was no longer sick, I was hit by a drunk driver. Now I'm having surgery on Monday to repair my shoulder and I won't be able to exercise hardly at all for 2-3 more months. I'm glad you are trying to keep that snowball from becoming an avalanche, because it can happen so quickly.

[@reasonmusician]

Something I have been telling myself to help me get through things I dont want to do.. "don't cheat yourself "skipping this or that for instant gratification is cheating yourself from being a better or stronger you.

[@lisabyers2992]

Many people have felt the same way. I got back to back Flu’s and still feel fatigued. Hope you feel better!

[@randomchik62]

I definitely relate to doing really well then being sick for a long time and falling off. I had covid back in December and I also could not catch a break for a little over 2 months and I let everything fall off so I'm happy to see you taking steps to get back! It's motivating!

[@Radishes786]

For frozen food prep, Souper Cubes or W&P frozen cubes are the best. Makes it so much easier to handle and defrost.

If you are a candidate of invisalign, it’s not too bad! Straight teeth is one thing but a lot of it too is that it corrects your bite so you’re not wearing down your teeth with uneven pressure.

[@christinelavallee57]

I have adult braces and HATE IT!! it’s painful and I’ve had them for nearly 6 weeks and it’s STILL painful. Eating is still incredibly hard. I only chose to do them because I need implants and they wouldn’t do them without having everything straightened first. But if your bite truly upset you, then it’ll be worth it to you.

[@tracypackard3120]

Brave little toaster was one of my favs as a kid and now I’m like, “why?” 😂

[@kobaltkween]

I find the key to not eating what I don't want is to keep what I do want to eat ready and available. Freezer meals are a brilliant way to do that. I just keep big batches in the fridge for the week, tho, and that works, too.

[@BlueMoon3l3b]

This is the second reference to Balto I’ve heard today and that is just wild to me. Also yes the Brave Little Toaster is messed up, the part where the vacuum chokes on his cord freaked me out so bad I still have a severe fear of choking at 35.

[@thursdaysdaughter]

Recently rewatched Brave Little Toaster on KZbin and man - it's honestly still so good. It was so real with us kids. Like yes, the world is big, and lonely, and hard... but the journey is the point of it. And you can find joy along the way.

[@TheBatmAnne]

Bea, IDK if this will be helpful to you, but it was incredibly helpful to me. I used to see "being healthy and fit" as this state of being that was kind of elevated, like reaching the top of a mountain. And every time I fell off the bandwagon, I had to start back at the beginning of the mountain, like Sisyphus and it was so discouraging. I feel like this may be kind of how you (and society) see it too. But I've realized recently that that way of envisioning my fitness/health is not really helpful to me (nor is it really accurate to how anyone - even the "fit" people - are living their lives). I've started thinking of my health as a hike - not up a mountain, but through mixed terrain: flat expanses, hilly rises and falls, and sometimes even mountains. Sometimes things will feel easy (flat expanses), sometimes it will feel hard (rocky terrain) and sometimes it's going to be super unpredictable (chased by a mountain lion or something lol). But the only way to tackle ALL things the trail of health will throw at me is to just keep walking. At minimum, that's all I really have to do, and I'm succeeding. Sometimes I'll be resting and sometimes I'll be running. But it all counts. And I don't have to psych myself up every time I want to "get started" on my fitness journey again, because I'm always following the trail, even if I have stopped to take a rest. That's just as much a part of hiking as reaching the top of the mountain. (I mean, come on, I'm hiking this trail for the rest of my life, I'm allowed to rest!) Anyway, that probably made no sense, but it's a helpful way of looking at it for me.

[@TheBatmAnne]

Also - I actually got to the end of the video now lmao but my husband is a lawyer and I love to refer to him as "my lawyer," in casual conversation. It throws people off. You want to hang out with me this weekend? Let me speak to my lawyer first.

[@nixi7688]

Pretty healthy way to think about it. Unfortunately for Bea because she is doing this on a public platform she has to deal with the perfectionist who drag her for falling off track for being sick. I mean what the hell? Instead of encouraging her to dust herself off, they write nasty, judgemental comments which,quite honestly, are so discouraging. They just use it as an excuse to bully, and actually contribute more to someone's low mood and lack of motivation than if they said nothing at all

[@neucounty]

Family Tip, we take our leftovers from our home cooked meal that we didn’t eat and put into a vacuum sealed bag then freeze. When we want to eat we simply boil the entire bag in water and enjoy. Get a food saver vacuum sealing thing 😂 saves us a ton of money! We even take those frozen bag meals camping or hiking it’s just so easy. Hope you read this and hope it helps!

Hey Guuurrrl!!! sounds like you need a little 'get up come on get down with the sickness"! :) That's the only bit I know so now I have to listen so that I know what I'm referencing lol. Ya bouncing back from being sick is rough. I've got light asthma but everytime I'm sick it feels like I've had a major attack and my lungs don't work for forever. Honestly what helps most is, when I can, walking more. Around the block or just around the house more or going up and down the stairs one more time than I really needed to. It helps my lungs work without burning :)

Hi Bea. I'm about halfway done with my Invisalign.It's honestly one of the best decisions I ever made for myself. As well as straightening my teeth, it's helping correct my overbite too. My only advice would be, that if you go ahead with braces, do it with an orthodontist, rather than a dentist.

Can recommend putting the ziplock bag in a jar or container first and then pour the liquid in it haha. Relatable content as always. Ive just moved house & can't wait to get back in the swing of things

Ok now I have to see Balto. I’m a 90s kid I missed this one. The Brave little toaster was my FAV 😂 but yes 100% traumatic

I have Idea, firstly post viral fatigue, it’s a thing, in the UK we have metatone it’s a tonic for those who have been unwell, it helps build you back up, maybe you have similar? Also you need a holiday, sunshine vitamin D and rest. Hope you feel better soon xx

Dude, Little Foot lost his mom. His grandparents were waiting for him in the Great Valley.

I’ve got braces and just had jaw surgery to correct my underbite. I struggled to eat and had a lot of jaw pain so it was something I really wanted to get done and was something I had contemplated for years. If you’re not having any complications I wouldn’t worry about it. You have such a beautiful smile 💜

I feel you B i feel you. I had a mid two years ago and unfortunately the postpartum recovery has been SLOW. Due to several things. I gave myself all the grace, but im frustrated because i am at my heaviest ever and im so weak and so out of shape. I am going to start working out soon. Very soon. Not looking forward to the adjustment period 😅

What I did this past weekend was put all my vegetable cutting gadgets in a big plastic bin for quick access. (Bought a ton on Temu 🤦‍♀️) When I made lunch with veggies today, it went so much faster. Before I was spending forever chopping everything.

I injured my knee in October after months of consistently exercising and that completely off track. I was scared to exercise once it started feeling better in December! Finally back on my walking, strength training grind and it feels so good! I was caught up on that damn avalanche lol

[@michellemarquez2440]

My cheeks HURT from smiling about all the meals being orange and not the grand reveal you expected😂

[@bri14935]

Bea, listen to your body! Don’t force yourself to workout if you feel weak. It’s ok to rest. I just got over the flu and man was it rough! I felt very weak and tired even a few days after being over the initial infection. Walking and cooking knocked me out. It’s been 13 days since I got sick and I’m finally feeling more myself and was able to do a little workout yesterday. Hope you are feeling better!

When pouring liquids into ziploc bags… put the ziploc bag in a jug ( like a juice jug) fold the top over the rim, so the jug holds the bag open, and then pour the liquid in! Also I love your videos.

[@candidulce0714]

My friend has had a cough for weeks. They have no idea what it is after a ton of testing. They decided it might be sinus related so drugs for that but it's wild! I've heard so many that are sick for weeks.

[@georgettemichelle2429]

idk why but the brave little toaster literally use to scared the shit out of me lmao

[@raisingthegrills6035]

They have ziploc stand things that hold the bags, very helpful when needed to fill bags alone.

[@jrumpf2]

I'm right with you! My son was sick two weeks ago, I got sick last week, and today I'm doing my Copilot workout. DREADING IT!

[@christineschmidutz5057]

After my COVID episode it was SO hard going back to the gym. I missed 3 weeks & felt ridiculously weak. I dropped down to the lowest weight, did the lowest number of reps and just kept going. It took a few weeks before i felt like my old self

[@letmewatchcoolvids]

bro i always had this recurring nightmare about the frozen river scene from balto, but i didn't know that was what it was from until i described it to my husband and he remembered
