Getting my life together in 2023 | what i eat, healthy food shop, organisation, cleaning, haircare

[@hannahweltycade]

Yes! I wish more influencers had this mindset! I’ve had the same mindset for years and I have never been happier! Health is not starving your body!

[@s30123]

Your video today has caught me from disordered eating. I had a recent assault and had started to refrain from eating as a way of control or feeling control after what happened. Your words about how food reminded me that it is a type of connection. And I am so extremely grateful to you for this video.

[@94SeeyouattheSeaside]

Same here! Got super triggered by other people on KZbin (models etc.) and Maddy actually showing a very healthy, very normal way of eating and also pointing out that calorie counting (also something that really triggered me) doesn’t really work for everybody reminded me that just eating Whole Foods and listening to your body might lead to a better and happier day to day life. Thank you so much for that!

[@WDWmommy]

loving your positive approach to the year and food... yes yes yes yes yes.... enjoy life, be healthy, stop focusing on unrealistic body images, slow down, embrace rest, walk, yoga, don't kill yourself with intense workouts, go outside, journal, unplug, love, pray, be authentic. xoxo Erin

[@olivebenson3235]

I have been trying to avoid processed foods and enjoying cooking from scratch this year. Makes such positive advice. As someone who has followed all the mad, bad, fad and sad dietary advice through the years it's so refreshing getting back to good, nourishing meals. ♥

[@ciarahawkins92]

Hi Maddy. I agree it was such a great podcast. The one thing that stuck with me from the podcast is everyone is different. He mentioned a person from Europe's blood sugar would not spike after eating a pastry for breakfast but someone from another geographic area did(he was referencing a study). Just reminds me that I have to focus on what I am doing and not what other people are doing.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Yes I agree! There is so much nuance and he is very balanced and open minded about nutrition which is refreshing and not controversial at all despite people online being frustrated by his comments!

[@ciciKoenig]

Wheats are different around the world. I'm from the US and I have many friends who can eat bread if they go to Europe but not if the eat it here. Our wheat has been so processed/hybridized etc, that our systems can't handle it.

[@dottiebaker6623]

Another rice cake lover! I love them because they're such a blank slate - you can put anything on them - and because they're just the right size for a small snack. Add one or two more and you have an easy, quick, healthy meal. And you can't beat that crunch!

[@tonisharp8747]

Definitely agree with you that everyone is different and we need to do what feels good, and is healthy and sustainable for OUR lives not what others are doing for themselves We are so quick to judge ourselves harshly for relaxing and taking things slow sometimes or breaking free from our normal routines We don't have to be living life so fast paced

[@IGEB-k2n]

And yes, Tim Spector has great advice! His book Food for Life is great too!

[@pinkkatz22]

This video is so calming. I love it. You're approach is far more workable than the usual New Years resolutions. I've said I'm reading at between 33 and 52 books this year. I managed 32 last year.

[@gracemccartin194]

A lot of good ideas….. living in the present….. not being rigid on “rules”. … being gentler on oneself and it’s ok to change one’s mind. Thank you 🥰

[@AThousandWords]

Thank you for this video. Today I'm not feeling well at all, very tired and demotivated and have had a headache for 3 days. Watching your video was soothing and motivating and got me to pause it and do my food shop (online) which I'd been avoiding all day. Loved your message about enjoying nourishing food, it really echoed my mindset and what I'm trying to focus on.

[@SR-ql9he]

17:47 Absolutely love your mindset around all that (food and alcohol having such a huge effect on weight gain and not so much working out), i absolutely agree.

[@shopcookeatwi]

Best Start to 2023 video out on KZbin. Thank you Maddie!

[@emilymhatton]

I just looked at the length of this vlog and said out loud "yes, that's exactly what I need" I'm not sure when watching maddy became a part of my self care routine but I'm happy about it 🤣

[@dogood7337]

Really enjoyed this video. Very down-to-earth, relatable, balanced, real, showing how being normal & doing normal things can be easy, yet healthy, positive & constructive.

[@flojohobbit5084]

Mindfulness is what I’ve started this new year as well, in regards to my eating, lifestyle, and mental health. Really I’m a lot more present and calm, and listening to what my body really needs, like a nap, instead of what I think I should be doing.

[@claireangier3322]

Tom Spector speaks a lot of sense, it's all quite mind boggling!

[@michellehooper661]

Thanks for the motivation! This vlog really resonated with me as I have the same intention for New Year. I’ve chosen to listen to myself more this year and not spend each day routinely and do more what I feel like doing in the moment. I am a bit of a perfectionist and at times try too hard to fit everything in and do things when I sometimes don’t want to. I’m finding it really freeing to listen to myself more and do what I feel like doing in the moment. I also listened to the podcast you mentioned and that also resonated with me as we eat a vegetarian Mediterranean diet - very plant based. Some really interesting podcasts on Diary of a CEO. Excellent vlog as always! You are very inspiring 🙏

[@christinamariemoney]

Just finished watching your most recent recipe video and now I have a new one to watch! Always thankful for your cozy and comforting videos ❤️

[@justynaaleksiejuk1802]

Mediterranean culture of food and eating is amazing! I love it

[@greasyandrusty]

Loved this video, especially when you touched on not limiting yourself on your foods - whether that be vegetables or chocolate etc. I'm the same with not meal planning, I can't be that meticulous with food as it gives me too much restriction on what I'm having. I might meal prep a chilli for the next 3 days for lunch but waking up the next day I just want fajitas! Really would love to see more of your food shops and the meals you're planning on doing with them - it gives for inspiration!

[@bernsky]

thanks again maddie! its a literal gift when your videos upload. its when i know im supposed to run a bath, do some self care, and unwind. We made rice and beans tonight with avocado and cortido and it was delicious.

[@claireangier3322]

Thanks Madie, I've just seen your elasticated food covers, I want to stop using cling film, so I've just ordered some. 😊

[@allisonmae3445]

I haven't finished watching the video yet because I have to go to work. But I really appreciated your message at the beginning of the video. That was a massive help to hear this morning. I also really appreciated all you had to say about controversy around simple advice on eating healthily and how you also met that with saying you don't want to go to extremes or be thinking about eating as a way to just change our bodies.

[@coffeeandbookmealdeliveryr1328]

I love ur videos lol I felt like this asmr version if ur vlogs aha nice

[@brinagotsued]

From July through December I slept less than 4 hours out of 48 due to medical issues. It was one of the worst periods of my life. It really brought home how incredibly important it is to sleep enough, ALWAYS prioritise getting enough sleep.

[@flojohobbit5084]

This video was much needed. I loved it!! So inspiring. Thank you!

[@MeditationMeg]

thanks for sharing your gifts and honesty!! 100% agree, perfectionist culture isn''t healthy. The more we remain balanced and focus on the present moment in the FLOW!!

I haven't figured out how I can recognize I'm human (and therefore NOT perfect) but still expect perfection from myself.....Learning to set good, slightly stretching goals that also allow me to give myself grace in the seasons of life.

[@Sareaesque]

Thank you for the extended talk on the rice cakes, I had morning sickness kick in full force this morning and as soon as you started talking about them my brain went 'yes, that, we need that!'

[@poelucas2802]

I resonated so much with your intentions! I have too been indulging in a little bit more vegan processed foods and more "beige" meals in 2022, because I was so excited to try all the new vegan options and taste everything, which was good. But I genuinely want to start thinking again about what I put on my plate and eat more whole foods, more veg - now that I am healed from disordered eating and in a safe place where I'm not restricting and compulsively reading labels and stressing over additives etc. :)

[@tarawalters9522]

You’d probably like the podcast Maintenance Phase as well as Aubrey Gordon’s books. On the podcast, Aubrey and Michael Hobbes debunk a lot of food/diet myths. They’re smart and really entertaining. It’s all so eye opening.

Cozy morning for me.☕️ Thank you, Olivia.🤍

[@daisysimpleliving7855]

I’d love to hear more about your therapy experience (if you feel comfortable sharing!) you talk a lot about mental health on here and therapy which I really appreciate! I have finally decided to see a therapist about my own anxiety and mental health issues and would love to hear your positive experience 🧡 thanks for being you! X

[@1Strawbz1]

Omg i love this approach, i came off instagram 1-2 yrs ago along with twitter & other toxicity & can totally relate to not trying to be perfect all the time

[@96nailtech]

I feel this so much - I put so much pressure on myself to wake up earlier, I set new routines and I have a 4 year old so things never go to plan! Im a virgo and i have a perfectionist mindset which I've found is actually damaging because if something doesn't go to plan I get so disappointed in myself😅 I have a hectic last few months full of change so that's helped but I love the planned idea too! I love your videos, they help me so much!

While there's certainly a correlation between the darkness in fruits and vegetables and nutrients, it's certainly not linear. There are some light colored nutrients and antioxidants and light colored foods that are incredibly nutritious such as white guavas, horse raddish and broccoli sprouts, some ancient grains and many more

[@homehealth101]

I think you mean antioxidants that help to relieve inflammation, helps to prevent cancer cells, and many other functions. And antioxidants are commonly found in many different types of fresh produce.

[@isabellatowler]

I love your healthy mindset and how real and relatable you are! It’s all about balance, eating what makes you feel good but not restricting or obsessing, I’m so disorganised but am a perfectionist as well🤣 so am trying to become more organised but also not put sm pressure on myself🤍

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Balance is key!

[@BeautifulJazzyJay]

Hello! I haven't listened to this podcast, but I'm definitely going to listen to it. I imagine it upset people because everyone's situation is different. From money to living in areas where "food deserts" exist. And what's immediately available unfortunately is processed food or fast food. I definitely agree with the sentiment of eating more whole foods, but it's definitely a privilege that ranges from economic to racial.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

The main reason people were upset was his comments on calorie counting and exercise not helping you lose weight. But 100% agree with you! It’s so complex and definitely a huge privilege. I really wish it wasn’t. It should be a human right!

[@rachelspoon4741]

Beautifully edited ^_^ ur words are so wise and motivating :) i started in December to be mindful of eating more whole foods and less processed foods. I feel so much better for it and still get to have treat meals and my fav foods. I dont calorie count but just mindful of what I consume as on a healthy lifestyle change. I started fitness classes in August and have got into routine on which classes I enjoy. I started with pilates and yoga, now more into Zumba because dancing makes me feel good xD Circuits and cycling are great too. Especially because the cycling class i go to does a general quiz each session so doesnt feel like exercise haha

Oh my goodness what a lot of sense you talk! My friend drives me mad dieting constantly, talking of food as a "sin "due to the programme she's joined to. I told her food is NOT a sin. She loses weight then puts it all back on again. I think I may have to introduce her to Tim Spector!!! I try to avoid unrefined sugar and processed food. I've been trying lots of your recipes and feel so much better and lost weight without even trying. If I want a treat or chocolate then I have it. We have nourishing tasty meals each day and look forward to eating!!

Hi Maddie, you probably won't see this, but just regarding the processed foods/Calories I agree with what you're saying as I lost loads of weight from counting calories but have now gained it all back. I've recently being diagnosed with PCOS and food is a good way of healing your body from PCOS, and rice cakes really aren't good for you. I know you said you like them but any material about PCOS, Diabetes or insulin resistance says rice cakes are very processed and will spike your blood sugar so much and are best to avoided if you want to avoid extremely processed foods

[@kitchenmemories-butvegan2447]

@@KWilliams22 hi. If you prefer the manual toothbrush then use the soft one with small head and brush gently with small circles. Never brush up and down or side to side. Or get ETB with sensor and just hold on each tooth. And please don't ignor the light in the brush. What most often the patien need to learn is less is enough. And of course floss minimum ones a day. If you can floss after every meal even better. If you just use the brush what you can clean is just 50% and where us the other half? Balance we need balance everywhere in life.

Great vlog, I've recently discovered you and am loving your videos. Tim Spector definitely says a lot of great stuff about gut microbiome, eating more plants etc but has said a few questionable things over the years too, I'm thinking especially about what he has said about diet "treating" autism, as the parent of an autistic daughter autism isn't something you can treat or would even want to, autism is beautiful and the autistic community don't want to be told they have an illness that needs treating. So yes, he says a lot of great things but he's definitely a controversial figure
