What A Vegan Ballerina, Vegan Bodybuilder & Vegan Runner Eat In A Day

[@sogandkarimian6890]

Thank you guys for featuring people who don't dramatically restrict their intake. These are healthy, balanced meals

[@ManMan-ul1pn]

Restricting calorie intake isn’t unhealthy or unbalance either. It depends on what you’re trying to achieve. These guys probably aren’t losing weight

[@Cat-mn9zh]

Their not restrictive because they excersice a ton. They would not have the energy to be athletes and wouldn't build muscle if they did not eat as much as they do especially since they are eating mostly whole food vegan which generally is lower calorie.

[@hannahleonie2651]

@@ManMan-ul1pn emphasis on DRAMATICALLY

[@fulminisrecovery1264]

this seemed really little to me but I also don't use oil or protein powder so maybe that added calories for them

[@byz6451]

[@lovenature1919]

[@Siouxnami]

Besides the oatmeal. Just water no flavor

[@chapa2282]

she also has big portions which is SO great to see! usually you would see dancers restricting a lot, so someone showing reasonable meals for her caloric needs is very refreshing

[@annabrewer9009]

The ballerina's meals look so good! Flavoursome, balanced, nutritious...

[@nandinisaluja2462]

i absolutely loved this, but that hot chocolate should have been mixed properly omg

[@DramasArmy]

For real. Also no cinnamon, vanilla or sugar, just straight up coco powder??

[@lilliefluff]

@@DramasArmy the cocoa powder might already contain sugar depending on the type/brand, but they should really add cinnamon, vanilla, maybe some chili or instant coffee, a tiny pinch of salt, those all boost the chocolate flavour as well plus yeah the mixing :c

The runner and bodybuilder are the quick and lazy meals with no seasoning. I much prefer the ballerinas. Presentation, flavor and unique. Whatever works for you as long as your enjoying your meals 😁👍🏽

[@Anna-pj8te]

Also, I believe the body-builder is using steroids.

[@kissme1518]

Right because you have time, grocery bill and energy to do that every meal. Not to mention washing, shaving and chopping all that

[@SnirSigawi]

Long distance runner barely have the patience to fully prepare full, or making it perfect. When we're hungry, we need that food asap

[@k.k.7797]

[@wadafik]

I appreciate the different range of complexity of cooking between the vegans featured here. I'm sure everyone wants to be a Nina but sometimes it's ok to be Alex/Allison lol.

[@AwesomeA92]

i thought the same! Three pieces of peanut butter toast for an easy breakfast is so relatable

[@GabyDeGyves]

This was great but I laughed so hard when that lady referred to onions as spicy

[@user-rx7pd1xv4k]

Me too ^o^ I work in food service and that reminded me of a lady who argued with my boss over whether onions are considered spicy

[@corismith-dekoning215]

Omg same! And when she called the microwave oven an air fryer. 😂

[@PeaceOfMake]

And baking tofu with just the flour. It's endearing.

[@samanthaturner7820]

I laughed too

[@basbleupeaunoire]

@@corismith-dekoning215 That was a convection oven, which is what an air fryer is.

[@Ella.L.]

Nina's meals look the most balanced and yummiest to me; good job!

[@sorackee2512]

Plain peanuts and chocolate chips sounds so yummy…I should start doing that in place of trail mix cuz lord knows I hate all those raisins and cranberries…Right now I feel like I eat more like the body builder but I would love to eat more like the ballerina. I know eating more Whole Foods will make my body feel much better

[@sorackee2512]

@Shaqeera A. Beckford huh?

[@necronyx7176]

I used to do the same thing and add sunflower seeds and some dried fruit like apricots or cranberries. Sooo gooood.

[@quarty9153]

Loved all 3 of these! While the ballerina’s was the fanciest, it was nice to see two more relaxed vegan diets as well. Sometimes there’s this pressure to make the perfect meal and I have no desire to cook. Big admiration for all of these athletes 😍

[@thamisotraditaola3098]

The ballerina's meal ideas and portions are the best in my opinion

[@raisa6651]

Please make a video of what different ethnicities who are vegan eat in a day. What a vegan Indian eats in a day, what a vegan Filipino eats in a day, what a vegan German eats in a day, what a vegan Japanese eats in a day, etc. Basically like this video but of people from different cultures and backgrounds.

[@carolinejohnson1022]

I love these realistic and healthy what I eat in a day videos as opposed to other channels which promote really extreme diets. Also the ballerina’s recipes looked soooo good!

[@ItsMePhoebe]

I feel like everyone always says oatmeal fills them up for a long while but I always feel hungry really fast after eating it

[@erescroker3763]

that’s how i used to be!! the only way it’s filling is if it has enough protein and fats: i started adding peanut butter to it, and i cook it with ripple milk (plant based milk with 8g protein) and it’s a game changer!

[@ItsMePhoebe]

@@erescroker3763 Thanks for the tip- I'll give it a go! :D

[@KLW0312]

I’ve prepared it a variety of ways and added different things and I’m also hungry not long after.

[@katherinedobias7499]

I eat a lot like all three of them. I must say the peanuts and chocolate combination is the best. Keeps me full for the rest of the day, gives me a lot of energy and I don't need coffee.

[@gymchick76]

Love seeing a ballet dancer they actually eats enough in a day!

[@powerpuff4ever]

There was this fun point in vegan KZbin where there were a lot of vegan athletes sharing. Their channels are all probably still here but this gave me 2015 nostalgia

That cast iron skillet tip was really useful.

[@itsdsanti3784]

I had to pause for a minute when she said "The cast iron adds iron to your food." This has never occurred to me.

[@chinajennaalys14]

but it's not necessary, so her saying this wasn't useful. Only for those who may suffer from deficiencies which isn't inclusive to the vegan community. I don't think this comment was helpful, it just showcased another non-existence deficiency supposedly vegans suffer from.

[@FrancescaPessarelli]

@@chinajennaalys14 I don't think anyone was implying that. a lot of people struggle to get enough iron if they're not constantly eating red meat or dark leafy greens. I struggle now (as a vegan) just as I did growing up (on a conventional diet). it's never a bad idea to find more easy ways for everyone to meet their nutritional needs.

[@bri678100]

I'm not a body builder but for him trying to gain muscle I definitely feel like he's not eating enough.

[@kazauksp]

Yes it doesn't seems much but i believe he said he was trying to maintain not to gain plus it depends on the ratio between his calories intake and his height and weight.

[@footballchica026]

I thought both he and the ultra runner were not eating enough. I'm pretty active, I'm not sure not as much as them, and feel like I eat way more

[@centigradz2centigradz289]

It's important to b in a calorie deficit as a body builder coz of the steroids. Otherwise u can balloon very fast. My friend is a body builder and he would go days without eating or going on a calorie deficit diet until he finishes the competition.

[@wadafik]

I think the LikeMeat that he used to cook for lunch and dinner probably packs most of the daily calories.

[@SemesterAtSeaHopeful]

He said he was trying to gain and maintain lol at 6:25

[@stacieellis]

I‘m a dietitian and I work with a lot of vegan athletes. The main problem I see in this population is not getting enough protein. If you are going to be vegan you will have to prioritize this bc it’s so easy to be under your protein needs.

[@user-rx7pd1xv4k]

I'm not vegan nor do I want to be, but damn, I would make a lot of these recipes. The potato/tempeh/veggie bowl looks fantastic, and that chickpea salad sandwich is a really good idea. These look like they're pretty cheap to make too depending on how many vegetables you add. Thanks for the video.

[@SadNachos]

the runner eating a salad with no carbs for lunch and toast with PB for breakfast (after a gruelling run, I imagine) and then a pack of peanuts and chocolate chips before bed because she's hungry doesn't make sense. It probably upsets her sleep cycle as well. She should eat way more calories in the morning and during the day and limit calories before bed. When she said "by the time it's time for dinner she is pretty hungry", it seemed so weird to me - it's not that the later in the day the hungrier you are or at least it should not be that way!

[@beth9034]

Most of these meals look pretty good in taste and nutrition. Would be good if they added in any supplements since most athletes need to take a few of them for optimal performance and B12 supplementation is an essential for most plant based eaters but maybe it was in the protein powder or milk.

[@groovydiphenhydramine9707]

Yeah a lot of foods are now fortified with different vitamins. Which is really great for non meat eaters so it’s totally possible that some of the protein bars or powders are fortified

[@Andreabay90]

meat eating humans are usually more b12 deficient than vegans that take supplements. And they wouldnt even have a microgram of b12 if it wasn't being given as a supplement to the animals they eat.

[@annies6566]

Such a common misconception. Vegan athletes are just like you minus the added fat and grease from meat. B12 is in broccoli, kale and in the protein powders they all consumed.

[@beth9034]

@@annies6566 with any person, active people in particular, many nutrients are depleted in soil and therefore in animals to and some supplements are needed for optimal health and performance across the board. While there are b12 fortified foods that could be healthy, I personally wouldn't rely on broccoli or kale since washing these is essential to remove pesticides and E.coli risk. The minimum recommended blood b12 may be above 300pg/ml in Australia and America but we really should be above 600pg/ml optimally which most of us don't get from food or water alone anymore. I've been vegan for 4 years by the way.
