The *ONLY* Snacks I Will Ever Eat As A Nutritionist [healthy snacks for weight loss]

[@K.Dilkington]

I really appreciate how you don't shy away from promoting meat. Nowadays it seems like everyone promoting "healthy" eating has to speak against meat, seemingly just because it's popular instead of understanding the importance of the nutrition in meat that we need.

[@leahflower9924]

Meat is the best thing for me to feel full or satisfied without it I don't feel like I ate a real meal unless it's pizza but pizza isn't good for dieting

[@saramay3697]

We don’t “need” meat let’s understand that first

[@margrose5]

I figued that fermented cucumbers (pickles) are great because they have 0 calories but are great for electrolytes, potassium, and probiotics (great for gut health). I love pork rinds or chichirrones

[@daniellepasseri7123]

5:23- talking about the bagged tuna... I thought she said it comes in a "terrible" bag, then realized she said "tear-able" like easy to tear open 😅 yes I love these for a quick snack at work!

[@celticlass8573]

I'd love to see a version of this video, which talks about things you can make at home to fill that protein/fat void. I realize this video is quite valuable to a lot of people who won't or can't add more work to their already crazy day. For people like me though, who want to avoid all the unnecessary packaging (especially the difficult-to-recycle pouches), I'd much rather make several servings of something at home. For instance, I've made the "cheese crisps" at home for years, and it's literally 5 minutes of work. And I'm sure a whole lot cheaper than buying them. Actually that is another thing that would be valuable: a video on making your own batches of snack stuff, and comparing the money spent making it, vs how much it would cost to buy it already made. Another example of that is the egg bites. Just a few moments of work to make them at home, and they would be *MUCH* cheaper. With inflation and cost of living the way it is right now, the majority of us are looking to save anywhere we can.

[@hereweare9096]

Cheese Crisps? They sound good.. is there a video?

[@boricuamom87]

Make this video! I'd love to watch it.

[@celticlass8573]

@@hereweare9096 It's just fried shredded cheese (on about medium), your choice of cheeses. Medium cheeses like mozz, cheddar, gouda etc work best. :)

Very true. I gave a mix of pre-packaged and simple homemade options to help everyone have access to different snacks that can fit their lifestyle. But I do love a good homemade alternative as well!

[@CynthiaRaeC]

I make cheese crisps, too. So easy and quick and soooooo delicious. (I like the store bought ones, too, but these are really just as easy!)

[@allisoncarloss4055]

Thanks for doing this video. It was super helpful to me. I work evening shift so I typically have a snack or two during my shift. My go too has always been pretzels. And it’s a hard thing for me to give up for a while. So thanks so much for the suggestions

[@authenticallytrish]

I’ve been doing charcuterie’s like you recommended previously with egg, cheese and olives & it’s such a life saver 😊

[@Brittanysbunnies]

Your videos are saving me right now. I am doing my best to get my body healthy. I have a calorie counting app that I love, but I needed help knowing the best foods to eat to make the most of those calories for my body. I've got a long way to go, and much to learn. Thanks for making your videos! I am glad I found them.

I always go for my Cinnamon Protein tea with fat, and go for a 10 min walk. The Cinnamon fights blood sugar spikes too, but after I drink the tea and walk, I have no desire to eat. Thank you because I learned the walking tip from you ❤

[@candiceandkevinbush3295]

A while back I said that LMNT gave me stomach aches but since that time I’ve found out it wasn’t the LMNT. I just wanted to clear that up because I felt bad that I blamed it on the LMNT. My stomach is super sensitive and I’ve realized that I cannot eat anything that’s at all processed. I can drink LMNT again without stomach aches because I am only eating a whole food diet. It’s frustrating not to be able to eat anything that has been processed but that’s where I’m at right now.

I absolutely love making my own pork rinds. I have a fantastic butcher so I get as many skins as I want I experiment with different flavors in the oven. Tastiest snack there is. You’re looking good!

[@AutumnBates]

Thank you so much! I haven't tested out making my own yet, but I'm super intrigued.

4:24 I got a simple egg cooker off of Amazon years ago, and it's so nice. Cooks six eggs at a time in less than 15min with only a tiny amount of water. Just put them in a container in the fridge afterwards and they're a great fast protein snack. I eat them with hot sauce.

My husband and I, and our 6-year old, are getting ready to go on a camping trip where we hope to be on the trails early each morning to beat the crowds. This means we'll need to pack a breakfast in our packs on those hiking mornings because we will be out for several hours. We usually have smoothies or eggs at home, but I would love to hear your recommendations for what we could easily pack in our backpacks!

I have a question about LMNT. I have high blood pressure and take medication. All that sodium sounds scary for people like me. Thoughts?

[@cynthiagilbreth1352]

Do your research, there is really no connection between salt and hypertension.

A great book that dives into the plethora of resources on this topic is called "The Salt Fix". Highly recommend it if you want to learn more about the science-backed requirements of sodium.

Can you do another video with only natural options? Beef jerky has a ton of added sodium and other conservants.

[@magdadom2505]

I'm doing beef jerky at home now and it's actually very easy... You just need to buy raw beef, chop it in slices (which doesn't even need to be turbo slim, however chips like shape is preffered - just keep them below 1 cm thin), then you do marinate (I'm working on that so I can't fully recommend anything, but one of the simplest is just soy sauce and packaged herb mix for beef) and you leave meat to marinate overnight (prefferably 12-24h). Then you just put it into some food dryer... Can be air fryer, can be regular oven if you don't have anything else. I have cheap dehydrator (bought it for mushrooms) and I'm putting beef on 5-6 hours on 70 degrees (this will depend on device) and each hour I'm changing layers to bake it evenly. In the middtime I'm doing my weekly chores like laundry, vacuuming etc. or just chilling in home, so this couple hours fly fast and I have portion for 2 people for full work week... It's even better than beef jerky from store, much cheaper and IMO very easy to do, so I recommend it. It can last up to 2 weeks stored in fridge (but I'll quarantee, that it won't last longer than a week, haha)

[@kellygay3650]

Cottage cheese with pepper is a great “snack” too

do you add flax or hemp seed to yogurt

[@Leo-mr1qz]

I add them both to my protein shake. Flax seeds help with the fiber intake and Hemp seeds help with satiety. 😊

[@AutumnBates]

I'll add hemp seeds but I personally am not a huge fan of flax seeds on my yogurt. Although if you like it, you might just want to give it a quick blitz in the coffee grinder before sprinkling it onto yogurt to better help with absorption.

[@Rigbycat123]

You took me straight to ‘bazzaro’ land with your weird supermarket! 😂 Not very many of those products available here in Oz. Egg bites? What now? Haha Have to say, I can’t do jerky, reminds too much of dog product Schmackos lol Anyhoo…. thanks for the trip! 😵‍💫

[@mikerealness3551]

Hey there Autumn. So I’m on a weight loss journey…& I was wondering do you have to meet a certain calorie deficit everyday, in order to maintain the weight loss? Like if it’s recommended that you eat 2200 calories a day, could I still lose weight & keep it off me if I choose to fast every other day or eat much less calories than that? Sometimes it just seems too much to indulge. If you have a video upon this matter, please feel free to comment the link. Thank you 😊

[@AutumnBates]

Hi Mike! I have a video on calories that I think would be really useful for your journey. You can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYPYmqyDbNKsm5o

I am not sure why she would not mention helathy nuts like pistachios and walnuts which are know to have great benefits. I would think this would be healthier than cheese which she seemed to emphasize a lot.

[@jdm542]

[@SheldonBird]

Lol I hope Starbucks appreciated the free advertising! ☕️

Some of the products you showed are not available in Europe, at least not in most of Spain's supermarkets. I'm referring to the cheese crackers, beef sticks, bagged tuna and egg bites. Doesn't these fall in the ultra-processed side of the chart? Regardless of the ingredients.

[@celticlass8573]

Not to mention super expensive (I don't live in the US either), especially if you want quality ingredients, which I'm assuming she's after. Fortunately things like the cheese crisps and egg bites you can make at home, for only a little work.

[@coloradosavage]

Hi Autumn, I know you focus on getting enough protein but how much fat should we be eating per day? Thanks

[@AutumnBates]

Fat is more of a "satiety filler". So the amount one person needs will be much different than another. Even from day to day, your needs might change. For example, during the one week before a period starts, women's hunger tends to go up. This usually necessitates eating an additional 1 serving of fat at each meal to compensate. Or if you're exercising harder on certain days, this will also dictate your needs on that day. I don't have a video that specifically dives into this topic, but I do discuss this in my programs.
