How I Lost 30 Pounds in 90 Days

Wow this video popped up and I am so impressed with this guy. He is so articulate and smart. He seems confident but not one bit of arrogance.

I’ve lost 30 pounds in three months and I did it primarily by changing my diet. I just am careful now what I eat I stopped eating so much garbage. I stop drinking soda I used to drink a lot of soda. Now I drink zero soda, I don’t eat sweets anymore. A very little bread and pasta where I eat used to eat a lot of both. I quit eating fast food, are used to eat a lot of fast food especially hamburgers. It’s been three months since I’ve ate a hamburger I’ve been to weird days a couple times but each time I got a salad and a grilled chicken sandwich, and nothing to drink. Now I use sugar-free powdered drink flavoring that I use in water. That’s what I drink now in place of soda. I eat a lot of fresh fruit now which I did not used to do, I try to pay attention to calories, and use a program to monitor them

Protein in all its forms, plus as much veg as you can in every different way. Fruit only in moderation. Learn to cook, too. It’ll change everything. This guy’s aversion to the meat of animals as well as well as dairy, isn’t sound. So long as good husbandry is used- wild caught fish, grass fed and finished land animals -- it’s an excellent source of nutrition.

I’m inspired to get serious about food prep because the hardest part of my day is getting meals ready for seven people who all eat different types of food.

[@GeoffreyAlan]

I can't imagine how hard it is to cater to 7 people's food preferences! Hopefully this "component" meal prep approach is some help. I'm similar to you with feelings about coffee; after being off it for close to 6 months, I started drinking again. I just really like the taste and the "ritual" of having it by the window first thing in the morning. I suppose I could be equally happy with tea or something, but haven't tried. Consistency is more important than perfect though -- so if one cup of coffee each day makes you happier and helps you stick to the eating program, I think it's a good compromise 😊

I get incredibly fustrated when people say " damn dude you lost weight" Like its a bad thing. People are so used to being out of shape they think its normal. No buddy you are not normal.

When I lost weight 10 years ago people would say “Oh you lost so much weight. You look TOO thin!” I of course heard “Go ahead and eat a lot more food and don’t eat healthy the way you’ve been doing.” Now I gained back all the weight I lost and then some. I think, no I KNOW, I’ve finally reached the point where I have to listen to ME. Good luck everyone with your healthy eating.

Its taken me 7 months to lose 30 lbs ;_;

You know 🤔 I really think I can maintain this diet for 90 days. I don’t eat any animal products. The only thing is every now and then I would like to have something sweet. If I can eat berries I will be a happy camper. Thanks for sharing I will comment to this meal plan. I need to lose little more weight.

I have watched this a few times for inspiration this week. I read that book a few years ago, but didn't do anything after reading it. I wish you were my neighbor. You seem so kind, gentle, caring. I appreciate your honesty in how you started, what you did to keep motivated and create new recipes, COVID and going a little backwards, BUT MOVING FORWARD, with lots of new information and knowledge. My big cutting bowl and cutter will be here today!🙂I really found that to be an awesome tip. The SALAD DRESSING information will be my BIGGEST help. I am starting March 26 to June 8 due to work/covid changes. Committed and will assess from there. The universe sent me a gift 😊❤️😇 when I found your channel. blessings and thank you for being you!!!

Glad you're getting yourself set up for success with all the tools you need 😄 Getting started is the hardest part sometimes. You can do it!

I think it makes a lot of sense to have your vegetables all prepared but worry that they are no longer fresh by the end of the week. Have you noticed a problem with them by day 7?

[@karafoucault7162]

Your a fabulous speaker. This video was so helpful and how to cut the vegetables was very helpful

[@sschiff3991]

Fabulous!!! Absolutely fantastic video!! So real! Congratulations on your weight loss!!! As it happens I did the same and lost 7 kg. Although I had one cooked meal (different vegetable rice and beans and lentil dishes) for lunch and a big salad for dinner. Love your channel ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@reginacampbell4618]

Thanks for the wealth of information, veggie techniques, book, tools & appliance lists. I browsed the amazing appliances on Amazon because I been thinking of a purchasing a new blender and stove. Thx again!! 👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽🌺🌺

New subscriber! Love your videos! Very helpful as I am also plant based and struggling with a plateau at the moment. I need to lose about 50 pounds to be in a good BMI. Thank you for your tips.

[@mbarbaris3923]

I just started this same approach to weight loss a few weeks ago. Plant based, but would not consider myself a “vegan”. I hope I have the same willpower that you do! Thanks for sharing

[@pinkformarie]

Loving your videos! Straightforward no bs...

[@lindsaygreen40]

Don’t wash mushrooms They are absorbent.

[@justjan2576]

I used to hear that too, but current teaching on that has changed and now they say wash them

[@lindsaygreen40]

@@justjan2576 Disagree They act like sponges. Will spit water out when cooked. Brush them if needed. Each to their own though 👍

[@tashianadora8979]

Thank you. Your videos are so helpful. I will be starting This tomorrow.

[@samdickfos9038]

Thank you! I'm excited to try this. Two questions: 1. Do I need to buy the book or can I just follow this video? 2. What knives do you use? Thanks! :)

[@GeoffreyAlan]

Just following this video will get you 90% there. The book includes loads of recipes, which is helpful for not getting bored. It also gives more background to help set you up. The knives I use are JA Henckels. Not sure which set exactly, the blades say “Forged Premio German Stainless Steel made in China” - I believe it was around $200 for the set which includes a chef knife, santoku knife, paring knife, serrated utility knife, honing steel, and steak knives. I like the set overall and have had it for 7-8 years.
