Hello! This is my first time on your channel and I haven’t watched this entire thing yet because it’s 4am here in England where we are right now 🤣 but someone told us you gave us a shout out and omg love this!!! Love the format of this video and all of the detailed info you give 🤩 And I was thinking the entire time “wow, we are like a younger version of them” so glad you said that 🤣🤣🤣 New subscriber ❤️❤️😍 - Jessica

[@NutmegNotebook]

Hello Jessica! This is Tom, Thank you for your kind words. A few weeks ago one of our Subscribers commented to us on one of our Tuesday With Tami and Tom weekly videos that their two favorite channels were Nutmeg Notebook and Krocks in the Kitchen, so we looked you up and loved your show and immediately subscribed, :-) been enjoying your videos ever since. Keep up the great work and please stay in touch. Happy Cooking Tom

[@lauramoore6369]

Krocks In The Kitchen I’m in England too, and excited about my two fav channels giving shout outs!!!

[@heatherfellows9465]

You are so right about needing to think about health and a lifestyle instead of something being a diet. I have also had hard psychological times through yo yo dieting. It makes me nervous to go WFPB SOS free.. I’m convinced it is the right way to eat and it fits with my personal ethics. I’m nervous though because I have disordered eating and negative self image when I try to change my eating due to previous experiences. I’m watching a lot of your videos and trying to find a way to get in the right headspace to change my lifestyle. Thank you for all of your resources on KZbin and your blog. I’ll get there!

[@jennoonan4572]

Very motivational and informative video - thanks for all your hard work!

[@NutmegNotebook]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TalentBBY]

Thanks so much for all you do. Great team effort and so very informative. This was very helpful. I’ve been plant-based for six months and am getting anxious at weight creep. I’ve gained 3 lbs over that time, and while minimal, I couldn’t figure out how this could be the case. I’ll be getting Chef AJs book. Have been watching a lot of her videos lately, and I LOVE her food/cooking knowledge as well as her personal experience with weight fluctuations. I will be rewatching your salad prep video now that I’m ready for it!

[@NutmegNotebook]

Thank you for sharing Mary. Cutting out the higher fat plant foods really made a difference for me! Happy Healthy New Year!

[@teresakooser5695]

The Jaroudi family is a really good one

[@beth8894]

I follow all the WFPB oil-free cooking videos I can find. Another good KZbinr, Brittany Jaroudi at Jaroudi Family cooks lots of great recipes. She often cooks from Dr Greger's 'How Not To Die Cookbook'. I'm grateful to all of you for helping me learn to cook plant-based!

[@NutmegNotebook]

Thank you for sharing, we recently discovered Brittany too! Happy Healthy New Year!

[@lisas2538]

What a great video. Good info and both likable.

[@NutmegNotebook]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Smudgemom2003]

I’ve thrown spring mix in a soup...even iceberg lettuce in a soup. Tastes great!

[@lauramoore6369]

Since you don’t have time for coaching I would consider purchasing your classes if you recorded them. Just an idea!

[@NutmegNotebook]

@@lauramoore6369 We are planning some new online classes for 2020. Stay Tuned, we will anounce availability on our Nutmeg Notebook blog site when it is time.

[@lauramoore6369]

Nutmeg Notebook I’m super excited. I lost a lot of weight going WFPB, but this year menopause reared it’s ugly head and some weight crept back on. I feel like you are extremely talented in explaining everything in a cohesive manner. My guess is you were probably an educator at one point and time. You are better than some of the plant based influencers in making things easy to follow!

[@amieklingler1956]

Also, Gabriel Miller is on utube and Facebook has wonderful and simple plant based recipes. He just published a cookbook called plant based recipes for beginners. Available on Amazon.

[@Frandallina]

I went WFPB a little over a year ago. I cut out all dairy. I have seen an incredible improvement in my sinuses! I have always had a hard time breathing through both nostrils at the same time, one side was usually completely blocked from getting air and often the other side was only slightly able to take air in. I was a very shallow breather. Also, my nose ran constantly and I usually had post nasal drip going on. It took about a year but I finally noticed that I can usually breathe well through both nostrils! I do have a deviated septum so I may not be 100% in the amount of air intake that others naturally have but the change is amazing!

[@NutmegNotebook]

Thank you for sharing. The antii-inflamitory nature of this way of eating is so helpful for our bodies!

[@fbs1917]

Watching Chef AJ calorie density was such an eye opener. Much of my way of eating was how this is healthy to eat but never thinking of the caloric density. We are not taught that in any school. Today they push commercials to get negative points across and people buy into. Everyday I am still learning. Tami thank you for this great information.

[@NutmegNotebook]

Hello Fran You are so welcome, thank you for watching. Tami

[@PathtoWellness1979]

I’ve been plant based for 6 years and it works great for me.

How do you manage your thyroid problem.. I never heard anyone discuss the problem I have para thyroid problem the small gland that sits on the thyroid but I had the surgery done l need help with my weight help me please , thank you for your videos

[@NutmegNotebook]

I am not a medical professional and can’t give medical advice. I have had no problems with my thyroid since starting prescription medication for it. However it was more difficult to lose weight until I learned about calorie density and sequencing my meals. Please watch my video to learn more about what works for me. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3W8pXyebJydiJY

I made oat groats today using your method, and they came out exactly the way I wanted them. Prior to that, I had tested 3 other methods in the Instant Pot which did not come out good. They were not as soft as I wanted them to be by those other methods. Still edible though.

[@NutmegNotebook]

So good to hear this technique worked for you, Happy Cooking

[@theyearbylisa]

Can you share any improvement you have noticed regarding chronic pain improvement since eating this way? I struggle with this and today is my first day starting this way of eating. Thank you!

[@NutmegNotebook]

We both experienced impromment joint pain, specifically in our knees, Tom experienced dramatic improvment with his lower back pain.

[@theyearbylisa]

@@NutmegNotebook Thank you.

[@kristinLB]

Leese P check out Anthony William the medical medium. He is a wealth of info on healing chronic pain and health issues.

[@tammyinwv1]

I have been wfpb for 5 yrs. I have fibromyalgia . My fibro pain has decreased dramatically. Also my knee and low back pain pretty much gone. I used to have to walk with a shopping cart when shopping due to my back. Not any more

[@Cyd1057]

@Leese P, I had been experiencing worsening arthritic pain in my hands & chronic inflammation in my feet that was pretty debilitating (plantar fasciitis & heel spurs). I had been vegetarian for a number of years, but once I gave up dairy & eggs and increased my vegetable intake the arthritis went completely away & my feet are a good 90% better. I work standing on concrete for 8 hours a day & find my feet are tired at the end of the day, but I no longer have crippling pain. Give this eating style a solid try. You have nothing to lose and maybe everything to gain!

[@Larry30102]

Regarding the question about gall bladder disease and rapid wt loss. When in nursing school studying gall bladder disease they taught the 4 F’s: Fair, Fat, Forty and Female. Well..... I’m a male lost 50lbs quickly and had a gall bladder attack with elevated liver and pancreatic enzymes with a subsequent cholecystectomy. In my reading, I found a fifth reason for gall bladder issues.... rapid wt loss. It’s rare. And honestly probably wouldn’t have done my wt lose without changing a thing. It’s rare, and I wouldn’t necessarily be overly concerned about it. As a matter of fact, I’m the only one that I’ve heard it ever happen to.

[@NutmegNotebook]

Thank you for sharing your story. Happy New Year!

I got the Meathy crisplid for Christmas! I made slices of cooked sweet potato in it tonight and they really stuck badly. I don't use oil. Any tips? Thanks.

Have you met anyone that has been helped with menopausal symptoms on a whole food plant based diet. I’ve been WFPB for years but this year at 51 years of age I’ve had a hard time with hot flashes.

[@NutmegNotebook]

No, I haven't . I went WFPB after i went through it so i cannot say if our woe has any impact on menopause.

[@NutmegNotebook]

I went WFPB after i went through it so i don't know from personal experrience. A good question for one of the plant based Doctors.

[@joyhamm7088]

Thank you for your reply. My husband and I really enjoy your videos. They are inspiring and informative. Hope you have an amazing new year.

[@pattypop52]

i am 67, went thru menopause early, age 38, like my mom did. I went WF/PB , SOS free, 21 months ago. To date lost 79 lbs, but about a yr into it, my hot flashes came back, fast & furious !! I have low thyroid, and thought it of changed, and might be the cause, I asked my dr., he said" Because u are losing the fat, your body is making estrogen again" !! And it is affecting my sleep, worse insomnia than ever !! lucky to sleep an hr. in between them :(( But, on the other hand, all my other health problems have improved, off 5 of 6 meds, no more pre diabeties, no more chronic fatigue, no more fibro pain 24/7, no more cane, the list goes on, BP of 40 yr old woman !! I am so enjoying my new healthy self, and so is my hubby !! Love the food, craving veg and fruit instead of pizza, ice cream, party mix, pasta, etc...

[@hebcat48]

I started menopause 6 1/2 years ago at age 49 when I was WFPB. I joined Chef AJ's program almost 5 years ago. I haven't had any menopausal symptoms to speak of except for a few very mild barely noticeable hot flashes at the beginning but that was it. I've been symptom-free since then.

[@ahandfulofspinach]

What B12 do you take? I take it nightly but would love to only take it once a week.

[@NutmegNotebook]

Natures Bounty 2500 mcg. Google what Dr. Greger says about types of B-12 though. this is just one we happen to have. Happy Cooking

[@suemiller4897]

Nutmeg Notebook I take the Natures Bounty 2500 mcg (sublingual). The bottle says once per day but I see you and Dr Gregor say once per week. What are your thoughts...thanks for all you do, so appreciated!

[@shellyburnett63]

I agree I can’t eat items that have fat!

[@NutmegNotebook]

Some of us just can't!

[@nerolithelning9767]

???? Did you feel tired when you started your WFPB diet ??!!

[@katievdbshsh757]

Ooops. Name Diet in your title shouldnt be there since your talking about a life style not a diet

[@Frandallina]

The word "diet" can refer to a change in eating habits and is also used when referring to the eating habits of an individual or a population. It really isn't a reference to a change in eating habits for a period of time only and then a reversion back to one's former diet or eating habits.

[@katievdbshsh757]

It is unfair

He was probably too warm - I am always cold so he bumps the temperature up for me and then he gets too warm.
