Like I said above, all of these vegan, plant based staple foods for weight loss have been key on my journey! If it wasn't for them, I don't think I would have been able to lose 45 lbs in 10 months as easily as I have. These staples are also perfect if you are following The Starch Solution or The McDougall Program for Maximum Weight Loss. These plant based foods are also great to have if you are a beginner to the plant based world and if you are looking to lose weight on a plant based diet.

Hi Tia, just learned of your channel. I am on this path, and still changing trying to ditch the dairy, cheese mainly some meat, and eggs once and a while. I realize I have still been eating high fat plants, too. You are a ray of sunshine, to help me on my journey.

[@babybelltanya2]

Hello, I am only 1 1/2 weeks into the plant based diet, I have read Chef AJ's book, Volumetrics and now I will be starting to read the Starch Solution that you recommended. This is making a lot of sense to me. I am EATING TONS of potatoes and beans. I was afraid to eat rice at first, lol, you know how we are all brought up to believe it's the enemy! NOW I base my meals around mainly these three starches and add 1 or 2 cups of veggies and 1 cup of fruit. I MUST say YOU ARE ALL right. I am feeling SO SATISFIED and healthy and this is only 1 1/2 weeks in! The weight is coming off slow, but the health benefits, I am losing so MUCH NASTY belly FAT!! Hurray for VEGGIES, FRUIT and STARCH! I so far, do not miss meat, which is funny because we use to all base our meals around it. So it's becoming easier it eat this way with THESE videos YOU and CHEF AJ post. Helping us make yummy food to be able to STICK to this WAY of eating is what will help the MOST. THANKS for all the GREAT videos, KEEP them going.

[@salenarichardson2766]

I *finally* tried your vegan cheese sauce. I have been so disappointed by every cheese sauce out there and I am so freaking happy that I went ahead and tried yours. It is PERFECT. I’m a sauce girl and this will be a life changing staple. Thank you! Yes. Yes.

[@abagailarchary644]

Thank you. I think responding if you can, is the most important part of social media. It’s about being social, right? ❤️ I know it starts to get hard for some people as they get larger, but I’m going to try as long as I can!

[@christinesnowden4562]

Thankyou so much for your fantastic content. Your advice has really hit home with me and after to -ing and fro-ing with a vegan but sneaky processed diet I have finally turned the corner and have stuck to this way of eating for 2 months without missing the foods I usually crave! I LOVE your cheese sauce, It's a game changer for me. I love the way you spell out to embrace the simplicity of eating. I am thrilled as I have lost 3 kilos but just feel so much happier and healthier. Thankyou and keep up the great work. Chris, Australia 🙏💖

Oh Chris - this makes my heart so happy! I am so proud of you for not giving up and making this work for you. I appreciate you letting me know and for being here. This is exactly why I'm sharing with you all! So happy for you!

[@natalieayala2008]

You got me so excited for potatoes 😍 I habe been rice and pasta heavy since it was easier but now experimenting with oats and potato. By the way purple sweet potato tastes amazing by itself with just salt and cinnamon 😍 I struggle with orange sweet potatoes not being sweet enough without sugar but the purple ones need no sugar. I also used to not like beans and ate only since my husband likes them. Now I am in love n trying different types. There's a million ways to have beans and rice. By the way try cooking beans with some garlic, onion citantro paste called "sofrito", tomate paste, garlic salt, cumin, green olives and butternut squash. 😍😍🍲 It's pretty much the healthy version of puertorican "habichuelas guisadas" or stewed beans. I change up the bean and it's a different meal everytime. Also mix in fresh cilantro when your rice is cooked. Learned that from chipotle 😂 makes such a huge difference.

[@HealthyVeganMama]

All sounds so amazing! Yum!

[@vanessaszejwach3536]

I agree, your cheese sauce is the best that I have tasted and I have made a LOT... Thank you for your energy and positivity. Sending lots of love from Morocco!

[@HealthyVeganMama]

Sounds amazing!!!

[@alwaysneed2learn806]

LOL! I'm eating beans/lentils in my post-workout breakfast grain bowl as I watch this (topped with sweet potato "pudding"). Beans are also fabulous as a "binder" in flatbreads and sweet treats like simple oat "cookies" or fruit-sweetened "brownies!"

[@carolwing8503]

Just a note about beans. For physical reasons I can no longer shop in a store. So I am at the mercy of the store and what I can order online and have delivered. I live in a big city and only one grocery store carries low sodium beans online. That is black beans at double the price of a regular can. So my solution is to rinse the beans very well after opening the can. I realize some sodium has been absorbed by the beans and cannot be rinsed off so I never add salt to any dishes I make with canned beans.

[@HealthyVeganMama]

No that’s perfect. If you’re to rinsing them your okay

[@MsKatastrophenBarbie]

My staples are: 1. Garlic 2. Frozen blueberries 3. Oats (Haferflocken) 4. Beans 5. Chopped tomatoes 6. Whole spelt noodles 7. Potatoes (love the taste of sweet potatoes but they are expensive here because it needs being imported) 8. Rice (trying to convert to brown but right now we eat lots of sushi rice and basmati rice) 9. Soymilk, tofu, thempeh, edamame Reasons I still am 25 kg overweight.... Too much nuts, oil, faux meats, takeout, sugary snacks, chocolate, sweets and Chips. I know it but it's SOOOOOOO hard to stop!

[@hannahcarrillo2097]

Love this! I’d be interested to hear about some meal formulas or more ways you combine these staples for quick meals or eating on the go
