*Counting my Calories for a week* .. what I actually eat as an intuitive eater - ( vegan + simple )

NEW COOKBOOK:
payhip.com/b/GPwUR
Hey friends!🌞 Welcome to a new what I eat in a week video but this one has a twist! I’m counting my calories as an intuitive eater this week!
You guys know I don’t like counting my calories because I truly believe it takes us outside of ourselves and doesn’t allow us to fully listen to our own special, unique body. Some days we may be extra hungry and other days not so much. That is completely normal and okay!! For thousands of years this is how humans were. Some days there were feasts and other days it was hard to find food. This is why intuitive eating is so amazing, when we listen to our bodies and what it needs it finds it’s balance and can maintain its weight and metabolism with ease.
Intuitive eating will take some time, but keep tuning in with your body everyday and you will be there before you know it💛
Lots of love to you all🥰✨🌈💛

Hot chocolate ( salted caramel vibe? )
1 cup milk of choice ( I used pre sweetened )
1/2 cup water ( sub for more milk )
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tsp maca powder
Pinch salt
1 tsp date syrup
- if your milks is not pre sweetened add extra date syrup or maple syrup to your sweetness level of liking!
Stove top granola:
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup walnuts
2 tbsp pecans ( optional I just had these left in the house )
2 tbsp pumpkin seed
1 tbsp hemp seed
1 tbsp PB ( sub for another nut / seed butter )
2 tbsp maple syrup
Pinch of salt
1 tsp coconut oil
Pasta Recipe:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 leek
1 sm onion
1 yellow zucchini
S + P to taste
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
Pinch chilli flakes
1/2 lemon
1 serving brown rice pasta
Lentil meat loaf recipe:
1 med-lg cooking onion
1/2 leek
1 oh carrot
1 stick celery
1-2 cups brown mushrooms
1 can lentils
1/2 tsp thyme ( thyme is a required taste add less if you’re not sure you like it )
1 tsp basil
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
Pinch of chilli flakes
2 tbsp soya sauce / tamari
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
3 tbsp brown rice flour ( sub for normal flour or another GF flour. It may not be the exact same but use what you have )
1 tbsp olive oil
Chop and Sauté veggies in 1/2 tbsp olive oil with a pinch of salt for about 10- 15 minutes or until all veggies are completely soft and browning
Preheat the over to 375F
Add 1/2 the veggies to your blender along with spices and pulse a couple time to break down. Transfer to a bowl. Do the same with your drained and rinsed can of lentils, then the rest of your veggies. ( if you have a food processor feel free to us that and add all ingredients in at the same time )
Once everything is in a large bowl together add nutritional yeast and rice flour. Mix in well.
Coat a 6x9 pan with 1/2 tbsp olive oil then transfer your lentil, veggie mixed to it. Slightly press the mixture into your pan and smooth out the top. Place in the over for 35-40 minutes.
Make your sauce ( I suggest finding a lentil loaf sauce on the internet because mine needs some work lol! ) there are many out there with with bbq sauce, hot sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, spices etc…
Put your sauce on top of your loaf and place back in the over for 5 minutes.
Let rest for 5-15 minutes and enjoy!

I’m currently recovering from anorexia and your videos have helped me because I am a vegan and sometimes I feel that me being vegan in anorexia recovery can be restricting. Your recipes are so nutritious and are balanced and they are just so impressive.

[@leamarie8067]

I am so proud of you. Used to be a fear food for me as well, until I came to realize, NOTHING bad was gonna happen, if I ate it. Keep up the hard work love

[@horrormysterycasefiles]

@@leamarie8067 ❤❤ahh thankyou so much ..i really needed this support

[@brandicenittler1594]

Made the stewed apples but added cranberries too. And stove top granola. It was soo good.

[@margarett_b]

8:40 Probably better to add the hemp seeds afterwards if you want to retain these omega-3's! But other than that, what a bomb brekkie! I would only add a dollop of plant based yoghurt on top because I love this cooling, creamy contrast :D

[@easyandhealthyrecipes9507]

Thanks for sharing❤❤❤

[@luizaballico426]

i really love your videos, they inspire me to cook healthy meals that make me feel good, so thank you for that

[@sandrafendl6277]

You can actually eat the middle part of the pineapple :) it‘s less sweet than the rest but has more fiber. Try it! Greetings from Munich, Germany- cheers, Sandra

[@gigi-fj4pz]

We love stirfries!!🙌

Love your videos 💜.love from india

[@luvasaur]

Damn the pot looks soooo good!!

[@lisaaatjehxx9356]

I love cranberries! Especially my bladder, IT helps to prevent bladder infection!

[@princessb26]

I know you eat intuitively but how do you grocery shop? Do you just have staples you buy all the time? Do you have meal ideas in mind? Do you just buy what looks good?

[@user-hw9bt6si3i]

Can u pls make a video only your lunches cuz the look so GOOD

[@andreasimone5823]

13:26 Hola Julia ¡Bien! ¡Gracias!!!

I thrifted it! But it’s from the brand shein!☺️

[@nataliab5879]

Due to a chronic illness I need to keep track of my macros and micronutrients, so I know all about calories and it des look like you underestimated some days. Just so people understand you probably consumed more energy than it appears.

[@nguyenthihaiyen1475]

Can I ask what kinds of detoxes I can drink to solve bloating without harming my stomach bc I have stomachache :((

[@starryxhope2858]

I love your vedios 💥💥💥live from india

[@heythere8318]

i don’t wanna be that person but she didn’t include the oil and also a lot of the caloric content was underestimated. i do love this girl and i also don’t think it’s necessary for everyone to count calories but just want to put that out there.

[@anitacarter8060]

I love your channel / videos… I get a lot of great ideas from your recipes! However… I am never counting my calories… 😩 ….. i’m just saying! 😆✌🏻

[@brittanymicah1]

What orange powder went into the cup before the coffee at the start of your video?

[@juliaayers111]

It was maca powder!

[@yasmimdantas5115]

How you feel today Julia? Love you 💚🌱 have a beautiful day

[@juliaayers111]

I’m lovely! Thank you so much💛 have a beautiful day as well✨🥰

[@annaburke8537]

Being from Southern America I was sad when you only grated the corn kernels and not three layers from the corn 😿

[@anydae]

A scale would help instead of guessing but if it works for you. I do use a scale and that works for me.

[@juliaayers111]

I might purchase a scale because I would like to make more of these videos and make them more accurate! :)

[@elainemacpherson8407]

Ever thought of getting an electric kettle to boil water for your coffee . Is it just a British thing

[@emineboz9454]

i am the same, I never crave fruit:(((( I never crave sweet things but salty and sour things are my thing

[@lindatoews5265]

I wish I had allowed myself to look after myself as much as I have for my family. Usually after I cook for them I eat the parts I can, no meat part. Often when I am alone, I struggle at what to make for just me, kinda ridiculous! I’ve been a vegetarian(cheese,butter)since 13. I didn’t have a clue as to what should, eat there weren’t UTube videos and there wasn’t a chance that mom would help,I think they believe it wouldn’t last. It’s been 45 yrs! Since 1972. Yes I’m old! I hate meat and when I do the full on turkey dinner, I tell them if you’ve ever doubted my love for you well this is it !( means more when your stuffing a turkey!!!) Most of my life I have cooked for 3-5 meat eaters, caregiver for 17 years 80-90 yr olds. I loved taking care of them and I have a great cooking reputation for cooking, just not for myself. I have tons of health problems, For many reasons. Thank You, for sharing,I will do better for myself! This old girl has learnt a lot watching your carefree attitude towards food. Luv from a gramma ❤️

[@aleksandratrawinska7764]

i laughed out loud when u said "bonjour"

[@juliaayers111]

Lolll I’m glad I could make you laugh 🤪💛

heyy it would be great if you could include your macros for the next counting my calories video cause i am hella interestedd btw i love you,you spread so much positivity xoxo

[@rosebelle8821]

Can u please show us ur workout 💓

[@hannahexum4982]

God Bless, pray, repent, do whatever God guides you to do. Thank you so much for your kindness Julia! You are so humble and give off such a wonderful calm energy. Keep up the success!! ✨♥️🙏🏼✝️

[@margarett_b]

3:02 The inaccuracy of calories is sth which really makes me laugh at the moment because having an ED past where every single calorie and macronutrient mattered is see that as the most insane time of my life XD I mean, what is the point of being exact if these numbers are estimates anyways, right? So good I am well over that XD

[@margarett_b]

16:38 I totally can relate to being indifferent to fruit! Moreover, I did not like any dried fruits either. And now, I just don't understand that *at all* to be honest. I've had sweet dinners (with fruit) nearly every day for the past 2-3 years and snacked on dates/dried figs with nut butter daily too :D

[@rebeccaxx]

youtube is gettin way too comfortable with these non-skippable ads

Hey Julia counting and showing us each and everything is quite triggering from someone who has an ED ofcourse you can tell us how much the whole meal is just wanted to let you know❤️❤️❤️

[@plantaetivoli1178]

wish you're vegan.... I follow so many vegans and I have a hard time subscribing to non-vegans. But I really love your vibe and attitude towards intuitive eating. Please, make the connection "cause you're a sweet girl I'd love to to have as my own.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. This life isn't all there is, heaven and hell are very real, but Jesus Christ loves you and can save you. If you will ask Jesus Christ with a genuine heart to please forgive all your sins, and come into your heart and please save you, he will save you and you will soon know how real he is. God bless.
