To anyone unimpressed by Just Egg liquid or the microwave version, try it toasted in the toaster. We’ve tried the liquid, and it wasn’t our favorite. The pre folded ones are so good if you drop ‘em in the toaster, rather than microwaving. Delicious!

I came down here to say just the same thing! I have the frozen Just Egg toasted often for breakfast. Toasting it gets the best flavor (as opposed to microwave, oven, or stovetop). And the liquid is... meh. Good for baking, not for scrambles.

I’ve been vegan for almost 10 years, grew up in Detroit, and I’m a HUGE fan of Lizzo. I just want to point out Lizzo is an actual Popstar, she’s incredibly wealthy (love that for her). Being vegan- even in poorer neighborhoods in Detroit and beyond, doesn’t have to require so many ingredients and doesn’t have to be expensive. Loved this video!!

I honestly don't think it's helpful to not distinguish the differences between being overweight and class 3 obese when talking about the relationship between weight and health, it just mystifies the (very real) health risks of obesity even more. Feel like it would have been better to leave that part out entirely instead of downplaying the health risks, that's the kind of sugar coating that kept me in denial about the impact my weight was having on my health

Abby I am overweight (I am also very short, and generically the women in my family were chubby) but just by following the general rule of adding protein and fiber (without making stuff taste bland), I have lost about 6 kilos. Not in a month but rather 3. But I got at a point where my ... What do you call it... Wright plateau, is smaller than I have ever been, personally. And I feel ok with this. You helped me see that losing weight is not a goal. Not timed. But rather.... A process. That one's body will go through, if you give your body what it needs. With 0 exercise, and not a day of feeling restricted or "punished", I lost more in 2 months than I ever did in my life, following "traditional diets" (aka stuff focused on weight loss rather than .. well, common sense) Pardon my English. I am Romanian.

I have had a severe egg allergy for as long as I can remember and for the longest time a tofu scramble has been my egg replacement. We Just Egg launched several years ago I was SO EXCITED to have an actual replacement for eggs and I really wanted to try them but being the skeptic I am looked up reviews and saw an overwhelming amount of hate towards the products that I didn't try them. But when Miss Lizzo came on the scene and gave them a glowing review I decided to look up people with allergies or those following a plant based diet and found the opposite they all mostly liked or loved the items. We like both the liquid and patty version of the products in my home. My toddler son likes the patties diced or sliced into strips and my one year old daughter likes the liquid scramble with crumbled bacon, sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, and fresh spinach 😍😋🤤. Now if they could keep the price at a reasonable rate we'd have A+ products in our books.

[@peanutbutter4726]

I tried it once it tastes strange like chemicals doesn’t it? I was bummed cuz it would’ve made my life easier with food allergies,,,maybe I need to try it again

[@catherine-eggallergyinmd]

@@peanutbutter4726 they spoil pretty quickly and if you get the liquid version and the bottle gets puffy/swollen and kind of explodes when you try to open it toss it out it's gone bad. I always have to check the date to make sure there's enough time to use it before it goes bad and because it's kind of pricey they sometimes sit on the shelf without getting tossed and replaced with fresh bottles. Both forms have a nice savory flavor and chewy/bouncy texture. The liquid cooks best in a nonstick skillet. I usually add a bit of salt, garlic powder, and black pepper to each form but if I make a scramble I add a strip of bacon, sautéed mushrooms & sweet bell peppers, and spinach.

Abbey I think your messaging around obesity could cause serious harm. People who are this big and remain healthy/fit throughout their lives are very rare, as are people who eat a normal diet and are as big as Lizzo is. This weight puts stress on the whole body, from heart to joints. We have to recognize that obesity can have serious complications and often does. Shame doesn't work but blank acceptance is just as damaging. When one of your close relatives is obese and ill because of it or even when it just worsens an existing condition such as heart failure like in my father's case, these woke word salads mean nothing. It's okay to say that being 100 pounds overweight is a health problem.

[@laurawas661]

Tip for making the salad dressing: go easy on the cashews. They make it sweet, but also thick and pasty if you have too many. The flavor was good but ours would have been better with like 1/8 cup of cashews. This is the downside of a recipe that has no measurements. I prefer to start with measurements and make it my own from there.

[@christinelamb1167]

Those GIANT handfuls of both cashews and walnuts made me gasp! Waaay more than an entire day's serving just in that dressing. I'm not fat-phobic, but that's just a bit too much for one meal. On a side note: I'm not big on my salad swimming in dressing, so while the dressing sounded good, there's no way I would dump the entire blender full onto my one serving of salad! I know Abbey means well, but sometimes I think she goes too far in the other direction from restricting. You don't want to restrict, but it's also not necessary to go way overboard, either, just to prove you're not restricting!

[@pixam345]

Hey! Just to be clear, obesity is a definite indicator of poor health. Abbey and a lot of HAES activists jump around the issue by saying "it's not the sole indicator of health" but this is a logical fallacy that we call the 'red herring' fallacy. Just because it's not the sole indicator of health, doesnt mean weight is not one of the indicators of health, and using this kind of language is intended to mislead listeners. There are hundreds of studies showing obesity leads to conditions such as sleep apnea, diabetes, joint pain, cardiovascular disease, and countless others. They also say "you cannot assume someone is healthy or unhealthy from their size" and "skinny people can be unhealthy too". Again, these are intended to mislead you. Do not be tricked by wording. While you cannot assume someone is healthy or unhealthy if they have no obvious signs of disease (i.e a thin, fit person) you can know someone is healthy if they display obvious signs of disease (i.e obesity). There is no shame in being obese, but there is shame in lying to people and giving them inaccurate information about the health risks of obesity. People have the right to stay fat, but they must have the information so that that choice will be informed. It is disgusting that a registered dietician would lie to people like this and put their health at risk.

[@ayevee90]

I'm Puerto Rican and grew up eating plantains 😊 Just a note for anyone wanting to try sweet plantains - the ones Abbey used looked like unripe ones to me (the peel is green, texture is stiff and more like potatoes/starchy). When we eat them sweet (called maduros or amarillos) we wait for the peel to basically go black and yellow, that's when they're ripe/soft and the taste is much closer to bananas. When we fry them up unripe they're squished into a patty (tostones) and it's one of my favorite comfort foods 🤤.

[@tanithd]

i grew up not eating red meat (due to intolerance in the family) so it was chicken and turkey replacements but my momma hated cooking meat so we had a TON of meatless meals and to this day, i almost always choose tofu over anything else because the texture and taste is incredible. we also make jackfruit pulled pork sandos and they are amazing, i prefer it over regular pulled pork. i turned my meat and potatoes raised best friend / ex boyfriend into a man who can perfectly cook a tofu stir fry and now regularly eats plant based meals with no problem and no thought 😂 i do love a perfectly cooked steak but other than that, the less meat upbringing prevails!

[@frankiefavero1666]

This channel is about GENTLE nutrition and using celebs recipes/what they eat as templates to teach and promote gentle nutrition. Abbey was examining and building up Lizzo's recipes, NOT dissecting her size or engaging in binary judgement (big vs small). The body positive movement is about not judging others bodies and accepting oneself no matter the size, it is not a MEDICAL platform to criticize under or over weight people, on the contrary it is a SAFE space for all!

[@melanie7068]

Jillian Michaels was very disgusting in saying “theres nothing cool about diabetes” if she had any medical knowledge at all, which she doesn’t, she would know that she is spreading ablism. There are so many diseases including certain diabetes that have nothing to do with weight. It would have taken her SECONDS to elaborate “type 2” and “type 1 has nothing to do with weight” But she didn’t. And she didn’t for a reason, to promote herself, to put herself in the limelight because her popularity was dwindling. When influencers don’t explain things and make broad statements that causes mass amounts of harm. It doesn’t make those that are obese get fit; it just makes them angry. And it spreads more misinformation about type 1 diabetes. A disease that kills millions, has nothing to do with weight, and most of those suffering have eating disorders. If she was a good person she would have done better, but clearly she isn’t

[@katymello3547]

I'm confused..lizzo is very overweight. How is her diet healthy and why is it being recommended?

[@wendy_lynn]

I’d love to see you recreate a 1950s diet.

Oh so much sugar

[@facuuaf]

What many people don't understand is that you can be lightly or heavily overweight and still eat a balanced and regulated diet. You're eating at maintenance levels, hence the fat you gained over the years or months prior simply stays there.

[@nicole5436]

No. To maintain that amount of body fat you'd need to eat a lot still. If she was eating healthy and in a normal caloric range she would be losing weight. Ignorant

[@summero-my5in]

You're forgetting that an obese person's maintenance is a lot higher. Especially if you're Lizzo's size.

[@chanterelledesign8310]

​​@@summero-my5inWeight is complicated very complicated. I have PCOS. I was also raised to eat everything on my plate. Combined with undiagnosed insulin resistance I ended up 230 as a teen. I developed an eating disorder and only ever got as low as 162. Even with eating only 1200 calories after an injury, I literally gained everything and then some after my injury left me not being able to work or go to the gym (I worked 2-3 jobs on my feet and went to the gym 2-3 hours a day and eating 1200-1500 calories. Now that sounds fine, if my "maintenance" wasn't nearly 3000 calories; 1200 is also very low). I maxed out both times at 270-275 lbs after not eating enough during my year or so with an eating disorder a decade ago, and not being able to eat enough while pregnant with twins. I have been trying to lose weight since January and gained about 30 lbs. Changed it up in July and I have only lost about 2 lbs. Now, if I go any lower in calories, I will likely gain weight again. 🤷 it can be EXTREMELY complicated and is more involved than just "maintenance, weight loss" calories.

I never thought of MIXING CEREAL?! This changes everyting...

[@frankiefavero1666]

I know, right?! Also, to flavour up plain potato chips, make a dipping sauce by mixing equal amounts of mayo (or egg free vegan mayo) and ketchup in a bowl (add some yellow mustard for tangyness) into a small bowl, this is called Golf Sauce in South America... delicious!

[@nelatuhtan265]

We have coffee cups of this size (the red one in the beginning) in Europe, but also much smaller. Here, the red one is by no means "ridiculously small"... And nor are the smaller ones.

[@frankiefavero1666]

Yeah, I'm half Italian but when I went to Italy a few years back I wanted to try an espresso coffee... I laughed at the ridiculous tiny cup it came in, but when I took a sip I understood why; its strong as heck! 😂

Couldnt agree more with your point about your body size does not indicate their fitness level 💯💯 I used to be obese when I was younger and won medals in mutliple sports yet I was always shamed as a lazy fat person at school and by my family. Thanks so much for making a point on this!! This is much needed 💯

How is Jillian Michael's still a thing?! I love Lizzo food tiktoks!

[@nicole5436]

Yeah fuck the woman who actually has discipline and purpose in life other than eating, who has done something respectable. let's praise lizzo because we feel bad for her.

[@susansho]

Jillian Michaels is just mean.

[@JadedKate]

Great food, variety, healthy... not sure why she gets all that nonsense thrown her way but her diet seems to me like a very healthy, balanced, nutritional food fest. Go Lizzo.

[@Taywanee]

Cause she clearly eats way too much otherwise with all the movement she does she’s be losing weight

[@Grymyrk]

Do you really think she posts everything she eats on Ticktok? It what's she's not posting that's maintaining her body weight.

[@Diana-qp2rw]

It’s either the amount of healthy, balanced food she’s eating that’s unhealthy or what she’s not showing. Even the most balanced meals are only good for you if you don’t eat too much of them. I don’t know what’s going on in her life so I’m not gonna judge her. But please don’t pretend she shouldn’t change anything because she’s definitely eating too much, even though her diet seems goo aside from the portions.

​@@user-fc4xg5ym1t lol, allow me to drizzle that lovely oil on top of all my dishes. Abbey will approve that, even if it leads me to consuming 5-6000 calories in the day. 🤪

[@michellebernal5668]

@@giuseppeferrara952 lol when she puts like 400 calories of peanut butter into her smoothies and then like 300 calories of hemp hearts, a whole banana, like a cup of oats, more fruit, full fat yogurt and is like I still need this smoothie with some hearty slices of toast but still extremely thin and hardly works out. Sometimes I think she goes overboard with seeming relatable and like the cool girl that loves to eat so much and never has time but I’m not buying it. I refuse to believe she eats everything in entirety, every single day.
